Watter verskil kan ‘n 5c, 10c of 20c muntstuk nou eintlikmaak, mag jy dalk vra? Dit is kleingeld wat ons beursiesnet vol maak en soms so lastig kan wees. Dit is aanvanklik seker moeilik om te glo dat ‘n paar skamele muntstukke ‘n verskil kan maak, maar die Nasionale Instituut vir Dowes in Worcester het met die hulp van skole in die Wes-Kaap, bewys dat dit wel ‘n verskil maak in die lewens van Dowes en persone met gehoorverlies.
Die NID se boksie-projek (Change 4 Change) is ‘n wenner! Sedert die projek se ontstaan in 2009 het dit NID se stoutste verwagtinge oortref met meer as R100 000 wat per jaar ingevorder word deur die volmaak van klein Change 4 Change spaarboksies. Die projek word met ope arms ontvang deur skole wat ‘n verskil wil maak. Leerders maak ‘n reuse verskil met hulle bydraes en leer reeds op ‘n vroeë stadium in hulle lewens wat doofheid is en wat die probleme is wat Dowes in hul alledaagse lewens ervaar. Deur deelname aan die projek word leerders beloon met die wete dat hulle kleingeld ’n groot verskil in die lewens van Dowes by NID maak. Die Nasionale Instituut vir Dowes (NID) lewer reeds vir 133 jaar ‘n omvattende diens aan Dowes en persone met gehoorverlies regoor Suid Afrika. Dienste by NID sluit in die versorging van meervoudig-gestremde Dowes; twee tehuise vir bejaarde Dowes; ‘n Kollege vir Beroepsopleiding vir Dowes; ‘n Teologiese kweekskool vir die opleiding van Dowe predikante en pastore; ‘n Akademie vir steundienste aan Dowes en die publiek, en ‘n Dowe kerklike gemeenskap met twee Gemeentes vir Dowes in Worcester en Bellville.
NID en AWSUM nooi skole, groepe, besighede en individue wat vanjaar aan die boksie-projek wil deelneem om Hannerie Swart by 023 342 5555 of e-pos [email protected] te kontak.
NID bedank graag die volgende Helderberg skole vir hulle ondersteuning in die afgelope 5 jaar deur middel van deelname aan die boksie-projek of skole donasies:

BOKSIES MAAK ‘N VERSKIL!
The City of Cape Town has been designated the World Design Capital® (WDC) 2014 and is the fourth city to hold this appointment and marks the first for the African continent. What does this mean for students interested in design?
Why is the Clock Tower yellow?
This title is awarded to cities based on their commitment to use design as an effective tool for social, cultural and economic development. The WDC has become more than just a project or a programme. Today, it is a global movement and serves to acknowledge that design can, and does, impact the quality of human life. It is a programme that brings together the people and the processes; the problems and the solutions; the gritty and the pretty.
Cape Town has welcomed WDC 2014 with streetpole flags and already wide publicity in all the popular newspapers & magazines. At the Victoria & Albert Waterfront which is a very popular tourist and local destination for all Cape Townians, the Clock Tower has been painted yellow and will function as an information hub for WDC 2014 showcasing interesting projects and demonstrating transformative design through our messages.
These interesting projects include recycling solutions, upcycled products, hard waste, software, memory projects, public infrastructure, social cohesion projects, low cost housing, large scale developments, human dignity, public art, services redesigned, spaces - big and small redefined and redesigned, heritage tours, urban tours, open streets, open studios. There are examples of health facilities creating new spaces, new systems and new
ways of serving their audiences. Long-term regeneration projects are design projects around educational spaces and educational methodologies aimed at early learning, high school and tertiary students; low-cost feature phones and low energy computers; translation apps, literacy apps, transport apps.
For the design industry this is an exciting time with fast growing opportunities for all our current designers and those to come as the marriage of need and innovative design has resulted in unique solutions to address the issues of a developing city. Design in Cape Town is also reaching beyond city limits by aspiring to become the design hub for South Africa and for the African continent.

MARCH 2014 3LifeStyleKyk Ma…geen grond!Hidroponiese tuinmaak is deesdae die in ding, maar wat beteken dit regtig?
Hidroponika is afgelei van die Griekse woord hidro, wat beteken “water” en ponos, wat beteken “arbeid of water-werk”. Dus, Hidroponika beteken groeiende plante in water in plaas van grond. Hidroponiese tuinmaak is so eenvoudig soos gewone tuinmaak. Beide van hulle noodsaak voldoende lig, water, temperatuur, lig en humiditeit, maar met hidroponiese tuine, word geen grond gebruik nie. Binnenshuise hidroponiese tuinmaak is nie so moeilik nie en plante reageer goed op hierdie metode van groei. Dit is een van die belangrikste oorwegings in hidroponika tuinmaak, aangesien dit die plante onderhou. In`n hidroponiese tuin, moet die plante meer as drie keer ‘n dag natgemaak word. Dit word gewoonlik gedoen met behulp van ‘n pomp en tydskakelaar.
Plaas jou plante iewers waar hulle genoeg lig kan ontvang. Anders kan kunsmatige lig gebruik word. Humiditeit is ook goed, want wanneer die kamer se temperatuur styg, sal die lug in staat wees om die voldoende hoeveelheid vog in jou plante te hou.
Voordele van `n hidroponiese tuin:- `n Hidroponiese stelsel kan ten volle outomaties wees, omdat dit water-gebaseerd is.- Jy hoef geen grond te grawe of onkruid uit te trek nie.- Die water kan weer gebruik word om vermorsing te voorkom. - Met hidroponiese tuine, kan ‘n uitstekende opbrengs van gehalte plante maklik bereik word. - Plante kan die hele jaar met hidroponiese tuine gekweek word, eerder as seisoenaal soos die tradisionele metodes.- Jou plante sal baie vinniger as in die grond groei.Hierdie is dalk die toekoms van tuinmaak, wie weet. Huis hidroponika stelsels en DIY kits is geredelik beskikbaar in die meeste hardeware winkels.

Spending 11 hours in the office could be the death of you A recent study by the University College London (UCL) found that those spending more than 11-hours at work have a 67% increased risk of having a heart attack when compared to those working an average 8-hour day. A separate study undertaken by the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health found that .these workers are also twice as likely to suffer from major depression with a 2.5 higher chance of suffering at least one adverse depressive episode after six years.
Already South Africa is regarded as the 3rd most workaholic nation in the world with a 2011 study by Ipsos Global and Reuters finding that a mere 47% of the country’s working population take their necessary vacation days. Resolution Health Medical Scheme warns that with a growing body of evidence irrevocably proving the link between long working hours and potentially life-threatening health complications, it becomes clear that corporate South Africa must take an increasing amount of responsibility for the health of their employees.
These employees are more likely to ignore obvious health warning signs to avoid taking a day off and are less likely to seek medical advice, believing that the problem will simply disappear in time.
High temperatures are forcing South Africans to get ‘sun smart’. The heat wave currently being felt throughout South Africa has given rise to a number of cases of heat related conditions.
“Exposure to high temperatures or doing physical activity in hot or humid weather can lead to hyperthermia, which is elevated body temperature caused by the body’s inability to dissipate heat,” says Dr Jacques Snyman, clinical adviser for Resolution Health.
Symptoms of heat exhaustion include:Profuse sweating, muscle cramps and body aches, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, dizziness and pale skin. “If you or anyone else shows symptoms of heat exhaustion it is vital you get out of the heat, drink plenty of water, remove any tight or unnecessary clothing, and take a cool shower or bath to cool yourself down. If these measures fail to provide relief within half an hour then you may be experiencing heat stroke,” warns Dr Snyman.
Heat stroke Heat stroke occurs when the body’s core temperature increases beyond 40 degrees Celsius. Unlike heat exhaustion, heat stroke is a medical emergency and if not treated properly, it can cause an individual to slip into a coma or suffer organ failure. The most characteristic sign of heat stroke is an absence of sweating. Other symptoms include: dry flushed skin; high body temperature; rapid pulse; trouble breathing; confusion and disorientation; hallucinations; unusual and sometimes aggressive behaviour; seizures; coma.
TipsTips to avoid getting dehydrated or suffering from heat exhaustion and heat stroke during the high temperatures currently being experienced around the country:
• Try stay indoors if possible or keep to the shade when forced to be

Ons wil nou nie sout in die wonde invryf nie…Maar hoe lyk jou soutinname?
Die week van 10-16 Maart is Nasionale Sout Week wat jou graag wil bewus maak van die gevare daarvan as jy baie sout in en oor jou kos eet. Die veldtog fokus hierdie jaar op sout vermindering – “Less salt please”.
Het jy geweet dat beroertes die derde grootste oorsaak van sterf-tes in Brittanje is. Sout is die hoofoorsaak van verhoogde bloed-druk wat ̀ n beroerte tot gevolg kan hê. Deur jou sout met 1 gram ̀ n dag te verminder kan tenminste 2600 sterftes (a.g.v beroertes) per jaar verminder. Sout kan ook probleme veroorsaak soos osteoperosis, nierversaking en selfs maagkanker.
Indien jy in beheer is van julle huishouding se kosvoorbereiding, maak seker jy verminder die hoeveelheid sout wat jy gebruik en dink twee keer voordat jy vir iemand vra om die soutpot aan te gee.

Brein, wonderlike Brein!
Die brein, ‘n wonder-orgaan. Hy weeg ongeveer 1,4kg en bestaan uit 100 biljoen senuweeselle, 1000 biljoen proteïnverleggings, 2,8 miljoen pynsensitiewe strukture, 500 000 gevoelverklikkers en 200 000 temperatuursensors. Nie net kan hy inligting vinniger verwerk as ‘n rekenaar nie, hy stel ons in staat om ons omgewing waar te neem, emosies te ervaar en ons gedrag te kies. Hoewel die brein ‘n groot gedeelte van die liggaam outomaties beheer (hartklop, asemhaling, ens), is jy egter in beheer van ‘n groot deel van die brein! ‘n Wonder element van die brein is juis die feit dat hy noodwendig reageer op stimmulasie of op die afwesigheid daarvan.
Breinfiksheid
Soos enige spier in die liggaam, kan die brein ook geoefen word om fikser en flinker te raak met die regte “oefenprogram”! Die brein stuur boodskappe tussen breinselle en na selle in die liggaam deur elektriese impulse en goeie kommunikasie. Om boodskappe korrek oor te dra benodig die brein neuro-oordragstowwe (soos dopamien/serotonien). Met die regte stimmulasie vervaardig die brein dit self. Positiewe, genotvolle aktiwiteite op ‘n gereelde basis kan help met goeie neuro-oordragstof produsering, terwyl spanning of stres die direkte teenoorgestelde effek op die brein het.
Bestandele vir goeie Breinoefeninge
• Aktiwiteite moet genotvol en ontspannend wees (positiwe emosie versterk neuro-oordragstof vorming)
• Al die dele van die brein moet uitgedaag word om te werk (geheelbrein aktiwiteit)
• Herhaling moet plaasvind (vaslegging gebeur deur herhaling, soos om ‘n pad deur ‘n woud te kap. Eerste maal moeilik, maar na herhaalde gebruik van die voetpad is hy duidelik sigbaar en gevorm)
• Positiewe ingesteldheid en beperkte of geen kompetisie (regte ingesteldheid versterk neuro-oordragstof vorming, terwyl te veel kompetisie adrenalien afskeiding en kortisolvlakke verhoog)
Beste aktiwiteite vir Breinfiksheid
• Kuns: beide die linker- en regterhemisfeer van die brein word gebruik vir kuns vanweë kreatiewe skeppingsvermoë in kombinsie met teorie en tegniek. Enige nuwe, skeppende ervaring is ‘n nuwe leer-ervaring vir die brein. Kunsklasse is gewoonlik nie bedreigend, nie-kompeterend en ‘n genotvolle vryvloeiende proses van ontdekking en ontspanning. Afgesien van kunstalent (of die afwesigheid daarvan) is die kreatiewe proses van kuns binne die raamwerk van ‘n medium en tegniek perfekte breinfiksheidsstimmulasie.
• Musiek: musiek word verwerk deur beide linker en regter hemisfeer van die brein asook die temporale lobbe. Albei hande word meestal ingespan wanneer ‘n instrument bespeel word. Albei breinhelftes word dus gebruik.
• Dans: deur danspassies word die middellyn herhaaldelik gekruis. Musiek word deur die brein verwerk terwyl die brein die liggaam moet beheer en reguleer om bewegings te maak in lyn met die musiek verwerking.
• Sport: sportsoorte waar die middellyn gekruis word of teenoorgestelde dele van die liggaam tegelykertyd moet werk verhoog ook breinfiksheid, bv. Swem, hokkie, sokker, tennis, ens. Hoe hoër die breinfiksheidsvlakke is, hoe vinniger kan die brein op insette reageer, verwerking laat geskied en optree. Dus: geoefende breine leer makliker en vinniger! So, vind ‘n gunsteling aktiwiteit en beoefen dit gereeld! Beter breinfiksheid besorg bobaas resultate!

With School Health Week, which runs from 4 to 8 March, in the spotlight, parents are reminded to pack healthy lunch boxes for their children. “Nutrition is key to learning, as it provides learners with the energy to engage in school activities,” says Madelein Luttig, Grade 2 teacher at Riverside College, Burgundy Estate. “While families may serve healthy meals at home, school lunch boxes are often filled with junk food such as chips and chocolate. It’s important to ensure your child has access to a varied, balanced diet throughout the day.”
Healthy lunchbox tips:
• Swap white sliced bread for low GI or wholewheat• Omega-3’s are great brain food – e.g. salmon, walnuts or kiwi fruit• Try food pairing, such as cherry tomatoes with cheese cubes• Pack a small tub of yogurt for calcium• Cut fruit and vegetables into fun shapes – think carrot sticks and cucumber wedges.• Last night’s leftovers are a healthy option over another sandwich• Pack water, not juice – if your child is reluctant, try diluting the juice• Oat crunchies are delicious and healthy, plus you can make them yourself!• Boiled eggs and biltong are easy to pack and are a good source of protein.

Celebrate St Paddy’s day Every year on 17 March, Ireland celebrates Saint Patrick’s Day, a cultural and religious holiday that dates back to the 9th century and pays homage to the nation’s most prominent patron saint. While it does have spiritual roots, today, the occasion is largely used as an excuse for Irish fun and has been eagerly adopted by a host of countries outside of the shamrock state, South Africa included.
The AWSUM Kombuis shares two Irish recipes to celebrate St Paddy’s.
Whatever you cook, may the luck of the Irish be there with you.

Neelsie Prestige-byeenkoms
Topatlete by Fanie Theron-prestigebyeenkomsLaerskool Stellenbosch se swemspan het 20 ander skole uitgestof om die gesogte Superspar Topskole Swemgala op Malmesbury te wen. Hier is die span met die trofee.
Stellies het mev. Charné de Kock, mev. Suid-Afrika 2013/2014 ondersteun in ‘n uitreik projek vir die Rooikruis Kinderhospitaal. ‘n Klaskamer vol geskenke en ‘n kontantbedrag was ingesamel. Baie dankie aan almal se ondersteuning en goedhartigheid wat hierdie poging en dag spesiaal gemaak het.
Tydens die Wes-Kaapse Onderwysdepartement se sistemiese toetse vir Graad 3 en 6 van 2013, het ons skool besonder goed presteer. Daar was ‘n provinsiale prysuitdeling op Dinsdag, 18 Februarie en ons het ‘n toekenning vir uitnemendheid in Wiskunde en ‘n kontantbe-drag van R20 000,00 ontvang.
Om hierdie toekenning te ontvang is ‘n geweldige eer. Dit reflekteer die onderwysers se ywer en toewyding waarmee hulle ons kinders al die nodige vaardighede aanleer. Die Agbare Minister van Onderwys, mnr. Donald Grant, het die toekenning tydens die baie deftige geleentheid aan ons oorhandig.

Lank lewe Wiskunde in Lochieland
Olimpiese Spele 2014
Wiskunde lewe in Lochieland. Dit het ons weer gesien met ons onlangse Wiskunde week. Ons het kop gekrap met ons daaglikse kopkrappers. Wiskunde is kop toe gevat met Wiskunde hoede en het die strop om die nek gekry met Wiskundedasse. Met ons Breinboelies het Tony Williams ‘n wetenskaplike en wiskundige ons breine behoorlik geboelie met Wiskunde probleme.
Die Olimpiese Spele is op Saterdag 22 Februarie gehou. Die geleentheid dien as bemarking vir Lochnerhof. Ons het alle voorskoolse kindertjies in die omgewing uitgenooi om die dag van pret en plesier by te woon. Weereens was dit ‘n groot sukses. Al was die weer dalk bietjie warm, het elke maatjie nogsteeds hul bes probeer en dit baie geniet. Elkeen is huistoe met ‘n “medalje” om die nek en sal daardeur definitief vir Lochnerhof onthou. Sien julle volgende jaar weer!

Athlete’s PrayerGod, let me play well but fairly.Help me to learn something that mattersonce the game is over. Let competition make me strong but never hostile.Always let me help my opponent up.Never catch me rejoicing in the adversity of others.If I know victory, allow me to be happy; if I am denied, keep me from envy. Remind me that sports are just games. If through athletics I set an example, let it be a good one.
