1. Did you know that the first Oktoberfest was held in 1810 to celebrate Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig’s marriage on the 12th of October? The citizens of Munich were invited to join in the festivities, which were held over five days on the fields in front of the city gates. 40 000 people were in attendance.
2. In the beginning, beer was not available at Oktoberfest. Alcohol could only be purchased and enjoyed outside the venue.
3. Oktoberfest has been cancelled 24 times because of disease and war. In 1854 and 1873, cholera epidemics forced the fest’s postponement. It was also cancelled during the Franco-Prussian War, WWI and WWII.
4. Did you know that Albert Einstein worked at the festival? He was employed as a trainee in his uncle’s electrical company, and the then-owners of the Schottenhamel tent decided that they wanted to be the first to take advantage of electric lighting, which is why Einstein was employed to screw in light bulbs.
5. Despite its name, Oktoberfest actually starts in the third week of September and lasts until the first Sunday in October. #Septemberfest
6. Only six breweries that brew within the Munich city limits are allowed to participate in Oktoberfest:
Hofbräuhaus München, Spaten-Franziskaner-Bräu, Paulaner Bräu, Löwenbräu, Hacker-Pschorr-Bräu and Augustiner Bräu.
7. The mugs themselves are hot items at Oktoberfest. Security guards annually recover approximately 150 000 from would-be souvenir hunters. Many are not recovered: The Hofbräu tent alone averages 35 000 missing each year. The fine for stealing a souvenir mug is R600.
8. Glass steins were late to the party: It wasn’t until 1892 that beer was served in glass mugs. Traditional beer steins were made of stone and later metal, and while some of those are still used, they are far outnumbered by their modern glass cousins. 9. You can’t start drinking until the mayor says so. Since 1950, the festivities only begin when, at noon, twelve guns sound a salute and the mayor cracks open the first beer barrel, yelling “O’ zapft is!” (“It’s tapped!” in the Bavarian dialect). The mayor then hands the first beer to the Minister-President of the State of Bavaria.
10. In November of 2008, Bavarian waitress Anita Schwartz broke the record for most beer steins carried at once. Schwartz balanced 19 full beer steins—5 in each hand, and 9 positioned on top of these—and walked 40 meters without spilling.

Het jy geweet dat jou daaglikse doen en late én
jou eetgewoontes jou vel se gesondheid beïnvloed? Dit is waarom dit so belangrik is dat jy genoeg slaap kry, dat jy genoeg vloeistowwe en die nodige vette en vitamiene inneem. En dit alles juis in die somer.
Hier is sewe sakies waarop jy moet let wanneer jy in die son wil speel:• Bly tussen 10:00 en 14:00 • uit die son uit!•Moenie jou vel te lank aan
regstreekse sonlig blootstel nie.•Drink genoeg water (agt glase per dag).•Onthou die “Vyf Varses”: Maak seker dat jy genoeg vars groente en vrugte eet, enigiets wat ’n groot hoeveelheid vitamien C en E bevat. Spanspek, broccoli, lemoene en neute is goeie moontlikhede.•Onthou die antioksidante. In die somer is bessies en aarbeie volop. Die antioksidante in hierdie helder vruggies help met die afbreek van die slegte selle wat die skadelike gevolg van die son se ultravioletstrale is.
• Vermy kos met ’n te hoë soutinhoud. • En, dalk die belangrikste, belê in ’n goeie sonskerm – en gebruik dit. •Geniet’nveiligesomerson-seisoen!
Beskerm jou vel teen die somersonOns is reeds heerlik bederf met hierdie somer-voorsmakie, maar binnekort klim die temperature
weer die hoogte in, en dan is dit noodsaakliker as ooit om mooi na jou vel te kyk.

International Food DayThe Grade 4 International Food Day has become somewhat of a tradition at Edgemead Primary School and the highlight of the year for the grade four pupils. It is a really enjoyable way of learning about how other cultures have influenced our South African society.
On 23 September, the Grade 3’s held the finals of their ‘Math Whizz Competition’. The competition was won by Ross Jacobs. The runners up were Ethan Manning and Reid Gilmour. Also participating in the finals was Leo Mischker and Josh Hagglund.
Spring Day Edgemead Primary Environmental Club (EPEC) celebrated Spring Day by having a Recycling Competition for Grades 4 to 7. The learners had to create a table decoration out of recycled goods. Much creativity flowed and the afternoon was thoroughly enjoyed by all who participated.
Lunch Time ConcertA new addition to our Music Department this year has been our phenomenal Jazz Band under the expert tutelage of Mr Gibbons. These fine musicians performed at our ‘Lunch Time Concert’ this week and wowed the audience with a James Bond Medley. They
will be performing at a wedding this Saturday, and at the Isabel Alberts Music Concert hosted by Monte Vista Primary School. Students and educators of neighbouring schools can socialize and share music in a non-competitive way at this event.
Op Saterdag, 6 September het Laerskool Gene Louw se O/10 rugbyspan deelgeneem aan die jaarlikse sewestoernooi wat deur die Laerskool Mikro aangebied word. In hul eerste wedstryd het Gene Louw vasgeval teen Laerskool Eikestad, met ‘n telling van 12-5. Hierdie nederlaag het hulle in die kompetisie se plaat-afdeling geplaas waar hulle sonder enige moeite die plaat-finaal gehaal het, en toe met die louere weggestap het danksy ‘n oortuigende oorwinning oor Laerskool De Kuilen. Die telling in die finaal was 42-0 in Laerskool Gene Louw se guns. Hierdie groepie seuns het met hierdie prag prestasie hul rugbyseisoen op ‘n hoë noot afgesluit.

DF Malan se langasems skitter
Vroeër hierdie jaar is Simoné Strydom gekies vir die Suid-Afrikaanse o.18 Jeug-hokkiespan wat aan die Afrika Jeug Olimpiese kwalifiserende toernooi deelgeneem het. Die span het al hulle wedstryde gewen en weggestap met ‘n goue medalje. In Maart 2014 is Simoné gekies vir die W.P. o.18A IPT-span wat van 30 Junie – 5 Julie in Durban deelgeneem het. Na hierdie toernooi is Simoné gekies vir die SA o.18B- span. Op 16 Julie het sy verneem dat sy opgeneem is in die SA Olimpiese Jeug-hokkiespan wat van 16 – 28 Augustus 2014 in Nanjing, China deelgeneem het. Die Suid-Afrikaanse span het 8ste geëindig.

Erwin Schwella van Stellenbosch Universiteit, asook raadslid Sam Pienaar. Die akademie is geopen deur Samuel Seeff waarna die eerste bal in die binneshuise sentrum deur Andrew Puttick van die
Cobras na Samuel Seeff geboul is. Hy het gewys het dat hy steeds heel behendig is met kolf in die hand. Die aand was een van vele hoogtepunte met ‘n paar toesprake deur die bekendes daar, asook die belofte van volle ondersteuning deur WP-krieket asook die Cobra-spelers. Die idee van die akademie is om spelers die geleentheid te gee om professionele afrigting teen ‘n fraksie van normale kostes te ontvang. Alle laerskool-spelers is ook welkom by die akademie en daar is reeds 40 seuns betrokke. Ons nooi graag alle krieketspelers wat ernstig is om hul spel te verbeter om deel te raak van hierdie inisiatief. DF Malan se krieket het die afgelope 2 jaar deur ‘n bloeitydperk gegaan en ons is ongelooflik dankbaar en trots op ons fasiliteite en geleenthede wat ons tans aan ‘n groot groep spelers bied.
Drie van DF Malan se landloop-atlete het onlangs aan die Wes-Kaap-kampioenskappe in George deelgeneem. Rowhaldo Ratz verower goud in die seuns 0.16-afdeling, terwyl McMarshall Hartzenberg die 4de plek losgehardloop het in die seuns 0.17-afdeling. Rowhaldo Ratz het sowat ‘n maand of twee gelede pragtig presteer deur die brons medalje te verower tydens die SA Padkampioenskappe oor 8 km. Met die prestasie is hy opgeneem in die SA Padwedloopspan.

The learners from the Art/Design department of Stellenberg High School recently hosted an eco-fashion show, titled Grunge Couture. The learners were responsible for the making of the décor and costumes. The costumes were made from recycled ‘grungy’ waste and upcycled to glitz and glamour ‘couture’ costumes. The theme of the event was inspired by the film Moulin Rouge.
The Settlers High School
Children of the world uniteOn 8 September 2014, The Settlers High School saw its enthusiastic RCL group launch the World’s Children’s Prize Programme. Recently, the RCL chairperson, Sinhle Radebe attended a workshop hosted by The Department of Education, where it was suggested that schools educate their learners about children’s rights, and what better way to do that than to have Settlers be part of the international children’s vote for the winner of The World’s Children’s Prize. “I think that bringing this particular initiative to the school was important for us as an RCL on the basis that we have a responsibility to educate our fellow learners not only on their rights, but also on the democratic
process. The World’s Children’s Prize vote allowed us to champion children’s rights and have a lot of constructive fun”, said Radebe. All classes received voting ballots, and the voting took place during the week of launch. Votes were counted and Settlers’ most voted nominee for the World’s Children Prize was the extraordinary seventeen year old Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai. RCL coordinator Mrs Ingpen said, “Knowing that The Settlers High School took part in the vote for World’s Children’s Prize meant that we were able to be a part of a global initiative, and that is, among other things, a true expression of Settlers spirit.” - Vivek Abraham (Grade 10 pupil)
