FOLLOW A HEART-HEALTHY DIET There’s an easy recipe if your goal is to keep away problems like heart disease and strokes.

• Eat more fruits and veggies.

• Choose whole grains. Try brown rice instead

of white. Switch to whole wheat pasta.

• Choose lean proteins like poultry, fish, beans,

and legumes.

• Cut down on processed foods, sugar, salt,

and saturated fat.

•

Exercise Every Day. The more active you are, the better, Meng says. Exercise boosts your heart health, builds muscle and bone strength, and wards off health problems.

In 1848 Jonas Bergtheil chartered a ship and brought out a group of German farmers and their families who settled approximately 12km inland from Durban. The area was named Westville in honour of Martin West, the first Lieutenant Governor of Natal.

The first schools and stores were established in 1877 and were situated near the intersection of Jan Hofmeyr and New Germany Roads.

Westville was a farming area up until the early 1920’s and the charm and natural beauty of this rural area remains to this day.

The lush, leafy suburbs of modern day Westville with it’s elegant homes set in picturesque gardens, combined with an ideal climate, makes it a much sought after residential area.

Its proximity to Durban and Pinetown as well as excellent schools, business and shopping complexes and sports facilities, make Westville an ideal place to live.

Mariannhill Monastery

The Mariannhill Monastery was founded in December 1882 by Abbot Francis Pfanner and his band of Trappist monks. They came to South Africa in response to a call from Bishop Ricards of Port Elizabeth.

However, they eventually founded the great Monastery and mission centre of Mariannhill. At one time with 285 monks, it was the largest monastery in the world.

Being Benedictine in tradition, the constant rhythm of prayer and work was well suited for life in the monastery and instrumental in bringing Christianity and civilization to the African people. In 1885 the Congregation of the Missionary Sisters of the Precious Blood was founded for the education of womenfolk.

Because the strict Trappist rule of silence precluded the preaching of the Gospel, it was decided in 1909 that the Abbey of Mariannhill should be changed into an active missionary to be called the ‘Congregation of Mariannhill Missionaries.’ The pioneering work among the African people has had a far-reaching influence throughout South Africa.

St Mary’s Hospital, located next to the Monastery, was established by Mariannhill Monastery and had a very important role to play in the lives of many of the local inhabitants. However, the hospital is now a state run establishment.

Tours are conducted on Tuesdays and Fridays at 3pm, commencing at the Monastery Gate. Tours can be joined from Durban Beachfront – check with Durban Publicity Association for details.

Pinetown NEW GERMANY NATURE RESERVE is set high in the scenic hills and valleys of New Germany.

This is a well preserved wilderness mosaic of forests, bushclumps and grasslands.

The reserve is well known for its masses of wild flowers during spring, its high bird population and a wonderfully diverse tree composition.

Officially opened to the public in August 1986, it is managed on the basis of intensive research.

A Ranger and a number of guards live in the Reserve and the area is patrolled regularly to prevent poaching.

Two major self-guided trails have been carefully set out with both young and old in mind.

IMBALI TRAIL: Imbali in Zulu means “flower�.

This trail has earned its name because of the masses of spring wild flowers.

AVIARY: A leisurely walk through the aviary which houses at least 60 species of indigenous birds is one of the main attractions.

Education TOPTOTS started in 1994, in response to a need parents felt to meet other parents, as well to learn how to have quality interaction with their children.

Liz Victor, an experienced teacher, bought the programme and reworked it and developed it into the educational programme that it is today.

The Westville branch was the first flagship Toptots branch. Ariadni Hind bought Toptots Westville at the beginning of 2017 after teaching for 9 years at a local private school in Westville and is passionate about child development and building a good foundation for future learning.

At Toptots parents come to classes with their children for 11/2 hour classes, where they are taught age-appropriate activities to do with their children at home. We focus on many different building blocks through our well-rounded, educational and fun programme, that help with a child’s development. It really is a wonderful steppingstone to Pre-School.

We offer weekday classes as well as classes on Saturdays. Have a look at our Facebook page “TOPTOTS WESTVILLE” where you can view some photos and news from our classes. Please “LIKE” our page!

At LITTLE STARS MONTESSORI PRESCHOOL we value the Montessori philosophy

which embodies a holistic method of teaching.

We use this philosophy to nurture and help the children grow in our beautifully equipped environment. Our aim is to approach every activity with love and develop respect for everyone and everything. We encourage the children to remain curious by constantly enquiring, exploring and investigating about all the wonderful things around them. We teach them to always give off their best. Literacy, numeracy and life skills are taught to the children not only to prepare them for their next schooling phase, but for their life ahead.

Vast amounts of knowledge about skills, concepts and techniques are taught in our environment at different developmental stages. Our teachings provide the children with independence and maturity as they engage in cognitive and creative activities.

With that in mind, Toru Kumon created a series of worksheets for his son to do after school and by Grade 6 his son was able to solve integral and differential calculus problems.

He achieved this by spending only 30 minutes a day completing his father’s worksheets.

The Kumon Programme allows each child to practice to become competent in the fundamental areas of Maths and English.

It also instills other important qualities and long-term skills in children including: • Mental agility • Good study habits • Confidence • Commitment and self discipline • Reduction in anxiety • Practice

Centre hours: Mondays and Thursday from 2:30pm – 5:30pm The KUMON Method of learning was developed over 50 years ago in Japan by Toru Kumon, a high school Maths teacher whose son was struggling with Grade 2 Maths. Mr Kumon was convinced that he could help his son 44 | Westville & Pinetown

Kumon is not designed to improve Maths and English skills as an end in itself; it is an educational method which uses Maths and English skills to develop the potential of each child.The aim of Kumon is to unleash each child’s potential to love learning, by improving confidence and selfesteem, and encouraging self-discipline and a good daily study habit.

There is no failing in Kumon, because each child works at his or her own carefully monitored level.

Toru Kumon: “Every Child An Achiever” • Confidence & Self-Esteem • Concentration • Self-Study Skills In the Kumon Programme, each worksheet is slightly more difficult than the one before it. This format encourages students to solve problems for themselves. This eventually leads to a love of learning and encourages independent learning.

Kumon’s Mission: By discovering the potential of each individual and developing his/her ability to the maximum, we aim to foster sound, capable people and contribute to the global community.

Education LAYING THE FOUNDATION FOR A BRIGHT FUTURE Every successful journey starts with a strong foundation and if you look after something, nurture it and care for it right from the beginning, it will flourish.

At St Mary’s we understand girls and in a Christian, all girls environment they have the freedom to truly be themselves. We are able to teach to girls’ specific needs and strengths and provide the perfect platform for them to become tomorrow’s leaders.

In Grade R its about allowing them to develop their unique personalities whilst showing them that learning is fun. Our girls are in the fortunate position to enjoy the advantage of the many facilities available at St Mary’s. They go to the Chapel and Primary School Library each week, and also benefit for Computer (ICT), Music and Movement and Physical Education lessons. These are all taught by the various Junior Primary specialist teachers in separate classrooms to their classroom block.

The girls journey through Junior Primary into Senior Primary where our programme is specifically tailored to engage, empower

50 | Westville & Pinetown

and enthuse. We aim to develop their unique potential and prepare them for any challenges that lie ahead.

From Senior Primary it is a seamless transition into High School where we encourage girls to measure themselves against their own performances and not those of others, thereby developing a sense of self-worth, self-respect and self-motivation. It’s about building up each girl to be the best she can be.

At St Mary’s we have a history of producing outstanding matric results and the 2016 Matrics achieved a 100% Bachelor’s Degree result with an average of 3,44 distinctions per student.

All children are created by a God who loves them and has made each one special. We reflect this in the way we value and work with each child.

We believe children are an important part of our society and we aim to equip your children spiritually, morally and educationally. Your children are created, called and chosen for great things!!

Ps 139:13-18 (NLT): “You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvellousand how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God! They are innumerable! I can’t even count them: they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up in the morning, you are still with me.”

KIDS KINGDOM - Established in 1997, celebrates its 20th birthday this year, and is situated in the secure Hatton Estate area. Our focus is on the development of our children, to ensure their grounding is a solid one which will stand them in good stead when they progress on to grade one and into the Primary School phase.

We believe that our small classes, our loving and caring environment, and our trained staff, cannot be matched. Our graduates are always amongst those who are called out to receive prizes after the completion of their grade one year and both the principals and teachers of all of the best Primary Schools in the Pinetown area, hold our teachings and successes in high regard. Remember....Today’s scholars will become our future leaders.

Today’s children will become tomorrow’s leaders.

Let us prepare them for their future success.
