2 FROM OUR SIDE

6Already out of ideas for your kids’ lunchboxes, although school

has just started again? Why not shake things up and take the lead from a few international flavours? There’s a whole world of lunchbox fillings to explore out there, packed with

interesting, foreign flair and delicious combinations.

ItalyTake a (basil) leaf out of Italian lunches by whipping up some lunchbox pizza rolls – simply roll out bread dough (you can usually buy this ready-made from a supermarket) or use ready-made pizza bases. Spread over a thin layer of tomato pasta sauce or pesto, then sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese and dried herbs over. Roll up and bake until golden and oozing. Cut slices of pizza roll for a flavourful lunchbox snack. For mini pizza rolls, also try using white bread and flattening it with a rolling pin before adding the rest of the ingredients. Delicioso, we’d say.

UkraineTake inspiration from a classic Ukrainian dish, blini, for a unique break time snack. These wholesome pancakes are served with smoked salmon or berries and cream cheese. Mix together cream cheese with a little honey and a drop of vanilla, then spread onto a pancake or flapjack. Top with thinly sliced strawberries or mixed berries and sandwich together (or roll up if you’re using pancakes). Wrap them tightly in cling wrap to make sure they stay fresh and soft until break time.

FinlandRiisipuuro, or rice pudding, is a traditional Finnish dish that’s super easy to make and, if packed in an airtight container, makes for a great lunchbox sweet that’s much healthier than chocolate. Simply cook a cup of rice in full-cream or low-fat milk until it has a soft and creamy consistency (adding milk when needed), then add a small knob of butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Top with some fresh or stewed mixed berries. Once cooled, pack into a small container, along with a spoon for a nutritious and filling treat.

BrazilThe cuisine of Brazil is as varied as it is delicious, with African and American influences. A popular Brazilian street food that also works well for lunchboxes is elote, a boiled mielie coated with an array of delicious ingredients. Simply boil a mielie or sweetcorn until tender. Mix together mayo, grated cheese, butter, salt and sour cream, then spread over the mielie once it’s cooled. Wrap in cling film and pack as a yummy, healthy snack.

GreeceFresh, punchy flavours abound in Mediterranean lunchboxes. Tomatokeftedes, a crispy tomato fritter, is a seriously delicious local delicacy – and great to make in advance for school lunchboxes. Mix together chopped tomato, onion, parsley, crushed feta and half a teaspoon of baking powder with enough flour to form a firm dough. Roll into balls and refrigerate for half an hour, then fry in hot oil until crispy. When cooled, pack into a Ziploc bag, along with a small tub of mayo for dipping.

TurkeyTurkish cuisine is a delicious combination of Asian and Mediterranean foods. A common savoury treat, borek, is easy to make in advance for school lunchboxes. Mix together chopped boiled spinach with crumbled feta and some extra virgin olive oil, before spreading the mixture out onto a sheet of phyllo or puff pastry, and rolling up. Cut into smaller rolls and bake until crisp and golden.

DIY beauty recipes to heal chapped lips

Lips don’t contain oil glands, which means that they’re even more susceptible to drying out and cracking than other parts of the skin. Lack of moisture in the air during the colder months only exacerbates the problem (another sigh).

To help heal your lips and get you back to your old kissable self, we’ve compiled a list of 5 nourishing DIY beauty recipes – scrubs, salves and balms – specially formulated to breathe life back into cold-battered lips.

Ingredients• 1 cup olive or almond oil• 1 teaspoon echinacea root (optional)• 1 teaspoon comfrey leaf• 1 teaspoon plantain leaf (herb, not

banana!)• 1 teaspoon calendula flowers• 1 teaspoon yarrow flowers• 1 teaspoon rosemary leaf• 1/4 cup beeswax pastilles• grapefruit seed extract or vitamin E

oil• peppermint essential oil• 5–10 drops of peppermint essential

oil (optional)

Ingredients• ½ tsp maple syrup (or honey)• ½ tsp finely ground brown sugar• 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil• 2 tsp finely ground coffee• Dash of cinnamon or pumpkin spice (optional)• 1–2 drops of peppermint essential oil (optional)

Ingredients• 1 tsp of coconut oil• 1 tbsp of honey

DirectionsMassage on and around lips, and leave mixture on for 5 minutes before wiping off.The coconut oil will restore the lipid layer on the skin, while the honey acts as a moisturising and antibacterial agent.

Recipe Joanna Vargas.

Ingredients• 1 tsp coconut oil• 1 tsp matcha powder

Directions• Mix ingredients together and apply to

lips. Rub in circular motions for 10–15 seconds and wash off.

• Follow with a lip balm.

Recipe Joanna Vargas.

Ingredients• 1 part honey (or other liquid

sweetener) (vegetable glycerine is great for those with candida, if you are concerned about ingesting some of it)

• 1 part granulated sweetener• 1 part olive oil (other great

oils would be jojoba, almond or coconut oil)

F e e l i n g k i s s a b l e y e t?

5It can be hard to stay “kissable” during winter. Winter

weather brings cold weather and with cold weather comes dry skin and (sigh) chapped lips.

Directions• Infuse the herbs into the olive oil. There are two ways to do this. You can

either combine the herbs and the olive oil in a jar with an airtight lid and leave 3–4 weeks, shaking daily OR heat the herbs and olive oil over very low heat in a double boiler for 3 hours until the oil is very green. You can also omit this step completely, or just use a drop of each of the essential oils instead.

• Strain the herbs out of the oil by pouring through a cheesecloth. Let all the oil drip out and then squeeze the herbs to get the remaining oil out.

• Discard the herbs.• Heat 1/4 cup of the infused oil in a double boiler with the beeswax until

melted and mixed. (Save the extra oil for use on wounds/cuts or for another batch of lip salve.)

• Pour into small tins, glass jars or lip chap tubes and use on dry or chapped lips.

Healing lip balm

Directions• Mix all ingredients together.• Apply a small amount to lips.• Rub gently into lips for a few seconds or up to two

minutes.• If time allows, let the mixture remain on lips for a

minute or two.• Wipe off gently with a warm, damp cloth (or you can

just lick it all off!)• Store the excess in a closed container.• Enjoy your smooth, soft, healthier lips!

Natural lip scrub

Directions• Mix all ingredients together in a clean bowl, making a

thick paste. Add spices or essential oil, if desired. Scoop mixture into clean container.

• To use, scoop a bit of the mixture onto a fingertip and then gently scrub the top and bottom lips to remove dry, chapped skin.

The Independent Institute of Education (IIE) is a private higher education institute in South Africa. The IIE offers a wide range of qualifications,.

InsuranceThe effort you put into Grade 11 can be considered as insurance should something go awry in the future. There are an increasing number of institutions that make provisional offers based on your Grade 11 results, and many will still admit you even if your Grade 12 is a little less strong.

Exam focusTeachers set Grade 11 exams to mimic the format and complexity of Grade 12. That means that taking your Grade 11 exams seriously will help you understand how you are doing and how ready you will be for your final exams. It helps you to work out where you need to apply more focus. This year’s exams provide a measure of where you are, and should be treated as part of your preparation for your finals.

ExperimentingGrade 11 allows some time for experimenting before crunch-time arrives. Learn new study methods and stress management methods, and experiment with things you have not done before, like study groups and mind maps. Finding a variety of study techniques and approaches that work for you will allow you to enter Grade 12 with a revision system that will make you perform at your best.

Time testingIf you keep good track of how long it takes you to master different kinds of work, that will allow you to draw up an accurate study plan next year. Knowing your pace of work means you will be able to revise with enough time allocated right from the start, so that you don’t run out of days before you run out of work to revise.

Evaluate post-matric optionsAssessing their Grade 11 results and performance empower learners to make better decisions about their post-school direction, including about which options are available to them, what courses to apply for and where. Learners should start working out their ‘points’ for higher education entrance from Grade 10. This means they should thoroughly research the courses they want to study and the results they need for their application to be accepted. In Grade 11, learners are then able to monitor how realistic their aspirations are and where they need to do more work, which will reduce uncertainty when applying.

Throughout one’s school career, Grade 12 (Matric) is viewed as the ultimate year, the year in which you have to account for what you learned in the decade before, and the year whose results will follow you for the rest of your life. But what learners and parents don’t realise, is that Grade 11 can arguably be considered as important, if not more so, than one’s final year, an education expert says.“There are at least five reasons why Grade 11

learners should take this year very seriously, and put as much effort into it as they will next year,” says Dr Felicity Coughlan, Director of The Independent Institute of Education. She says the penultimate school year is a significant one because it provides:

While Matric is often viewed as the year, Grade 11 learners and their parents need to be aware that Matric is not a year-long event, but rather a two-year long project.

Matric exams:

“Matric does not start in your last year of school. If you start applying

your mind to your final exams right now and take the long view coupled

with a strategy, you will be able to deliver your absolute best when you

sit for your finals in a year and a half ’s time, and significantly improve

your chances of being able to follow your dream post-Matric.”

8 HEALTH

While contact sports remain a cherished

part of many schools’ sporting traditions,

children participating in these kinds of sports do stand an increased chance of sustaining injuries. Rugby icon

Jean de Villiers weighs in on the risks of

contact sports in South Africa.

It has been estimated that the rate of traumatic brain injury in children younger than 16 is around 180 per 100 000, which equates to 0,18% and most of these are characterised as ‘mild’2. When it comes to children, however, any concussion should be considered in a serious light as their brains are still developing.

There are a number of precautions that can be introduced in an attempt to make contact sports safer, but the interventions are not

always unqualified successes. For example, some studies have suggested that when helmets are introduced as a protective measure in children’s contact sports, the chance of concussive injury actually increased because the children adopted more risky behaviour in their style of play2.

Weighing in on the subject, Debbie Valentini, spokesperson for Zurreal says, “It should also be considered that healthy behaviours, such as regular exercise, are more likely to stick

in adult life if they are introduced from a young age, and school sports play an important role in establishing fitness as a lasting lifestyle choice.

“The efforts of Boksmart in providing safety guidelines for school sport and injury management are to be welcomed, as these can certainly help to mitigate the risks that are a reality of physical sports. We encourage schools to implement pragmatic precautions, and urge parents to remain vigilant and

demand that reasonable safety protocols are followed,” Valentini adds.

“I think that what is being done at the moment to prevent head injuries is fantastic, and the Boksmart system that helps with the treatment of such injuries immediately after they occur is a great starting point. I also think the coaching of better tackling techniques can prevent injuries, as a poor technique resulted in my first concussion,” De Villiers concludes.

References: 1 Concussive head injury in children and adolescents related to sports and other leisure physical activities (G J Browne and L T Lam, 2005) http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2492044/ 2 Can we manage sport related concussion in children the same as in adults? (P McCrory, A Collie,, V Anderson and G Davis 2004) http://bjsm.bmj.com/content/38/5/516.

“An Australian study into the rates of concussion in children aged 6 to 16 found that organised sports accounted for six times as many severe

concussive head injuries than other physical leisure activities1.”

School contact sports and safetyAccording to Jean de Villiers, the issue of head injuries in school sport should not be taken lightly. “Having played rugby for close on 30 years, I have only been concussed twice. Once was at school when I got a direct blow from a knee to the side of the head and the other as a professional when one of my teammates kicked me on the head by accident. In both cases I missed two weeks of rugby,” says De Villiers, who is now playing rugby for the Leicester Tigers in England.

Mark Arnold, Principal Officer of Resolution Health, says physical sports provide a healthy balance in school life, as they serve as an outlet for restless energy and the strenuous exercise can help many

children to better focus on their studies. “There are many positive life lessons to be learnt from team sports in particular; however, a number of those currently played in South African schools do hold the risk of injuries.

“While people participating in contact sports could suffer a wide range of injuries, head and spinal cord injuries are of particular concern because they can potentially have profound and lifelong consequences. While adults are able to make informed decisions about the risks they take when participating in contact sports, it is up to parents to weigh up the risk of serious injury with the benefits such sports may offer their children,” he adds.

Dit is weer tyd vir #netbal #spangees #talent, want die jaarlikse Barloworld Klofie-netbalfees is om die draai! Speelsters regoor Suid-Afrika en Nambië kom saam om hul liefde vir netbal uit te leef- – doel vir doel! Die negende Klofie Netbalfees vind hierdie jaar vanaf 18 tot 23 Maart 2016 by Hoërskool Waterkloof plaas. Meer as 123 spanne, 42 skole en 1230 netbalspeelsters sal mekaar die stryd aansê in dié FEES van netbal.

Hierdie syfers en feite toon duidelik dat die reeks

sy kinderskoene ontgroei het en deesdae onder die bestes in die land tel. Volgens mnr. Daan Potgieter, hoof van Hoërskool Waterkloof, is dit ‘n voorreg om hierdie toernooi aan te bied waaraan skole van regoor Suid-Afrika en Namibië deelneem. Meer as 8 000 toeskouers word oor die vier dae verwag en skole van elke provinsie in Suid-Afrika is by hierdie jaar se Klofie-netbalfees teenwoordig.

“Elke speler en span speel op ’n daaglikse basis

taai wedstryde teen skole wat hoofsaaklik buite hulle liga val. Dié formaat verhoed dat skole meer as een wedstryd teen dieselfde teenstander speel. Die toernooi sorg dat krag teen krag speel.” sê Me. Eleanor du Toit, Direkteur: Netbal by Hoërskool Waterkloof . Die Klofienetbalfees gee individue en spanne die geleentheid om hul netbalvaardighede te verbeter voor die netbalseisoen begin. Die doel van die toernooi is om die maksimum moontlike wedstryde te speel.

Curro CaresCurro Hazeldean Primary encouraged their learners to collect plastic bread tags and bottle tops for a good cause and it certainly paid off.

The wheelchairs that have been received through the recycling project was handed out to a teen from Paul Jungnickel Child and Youth Centre and to Mrs Maggie Bunnik from the Louis Swanepoel Retire Centrum in Stella.

The learners’ and parents’ incredible hard work and dedication has uplifted and brought so much joy to these people’s lives.
