MOOD DISORDERS

KNOW THE SIGNS & WAYS TO HELP YOUR CHILD One in eight young people between the ages of 5 and 19 are at risk of developing a mental disorder, of which Mood and Anxiety Disorders are the most prevalent.

Emphasis on the mental health of young people recently increased as a result of the disruption caused by Covid-19 and lockdowns which exacerbated challenges that existed before the pandemic. It has therefore once again become important to not only start talking about the mental health of young people, but also to recognise symptoms and know where to look for help, an education and mental health expert says.

“The prevalence of mood difficulties among young people is increasingly becoming a concern internationally,” says Dr Jacques Mostert, Brand Academic Manager at ADvTECH, SA’s leading private education provider. Dr Mostert holds a PhD in Psychology of Education and is globally renowned in his field, having conducted experiential research in education in Denmark, the UK, South Africa and The Netherlands.

Dr Mostert notes that an estimated 24% of teens between the ages of 11 to 19 suffer from depression caused by the home environment, 25% are subject to cyberbullying and loneliness, 92% of LGBT youth report depression during the ages of 11 to 19, and 80% of teens between the ages of 11 to 19 report a sense of isolation that causes them to feel depressed.

“It is very important to understand the signs of depression, so that action can be taken timeously should concerns about the

mental wellbeing of a child arise,” says Dr Mostert.

“Teachers and parents can recognise the onset of depression when a sudden change in behaviour becomes apparent and continues for at least 3 weeks or longer. These include an atypical lack of energy, becoming increasingly irritable and agitated without a rational explanation, and a sense of being down in the dumps for no reason.”

Some adolescents may withdraw from friends and family over a sustained period of time, he notes, adding that this is especially concerning if this is atypical of the normal interactions of the teen.

“Another red flag is the inability to concentrate in class where ADHD or other non-neurotypical difficulties are not present, as well as regularly failing to complete classroom and homework assignments in time or often being late to class because of feeling overwhelmed.

“This, coupled with unusually defiant behaviour towards teachers and other school staff, especially if this is non-typical behaviour, may indicate that the teen is experiencing difficulties with mood and affect.”

In the same way as with anxiety difficulties and disorder, the student often asks to go home because of feeling ill with no discernable symptoms. The teen often has days off from class time due to doctor’s

appointments, hospitalisation, or inability to attend classes.

Changes in sleep patterns, a significant weight loss or gain in a short period of time and disinterest in hobbies or areas where the teen previously showed interest also raise concerns about the mental wellbeing of the teenager.

Finally, a loss of future-mindedness, or talk about death or suicide, engaging in risky or self-destructive behaviour (drinking alcohol, taking drugs, or cutting, for example) are clear signs of the teen suffering from mood difficulties or a possible mood disorder.

“Not all of the above need to be present, but if there is a discernable and drastic change in a young person’s behaviour which continues for a period of several weeks or longer, intervention is necessary,” Dr Mostert says. “Most importantly, parents should trust their gut,” Dr Mostert says.

“If your teenager insists that nothing is wrong, despite a prolonged period of depressed mood or being diagnosed with major depressive disorder or bipolar disorder, parents should trust their instincts and seek help.

“Should the above techniques not bring about an improvement in the mental wellbeing, parents should seek advice from their medical practitioner or a psychiatrist.”

British and Irish Lions plant trees at Hermanus High School “Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.”

Curro Hermanus-leerder ontvang skitterende Eisteddfod uitslae

In 1949 Hermanus had the touring All Black team as visitors. Residing at the Marine Hotel, the team was actively involved with numerous events in our town, and the one that we treasure most, was the planting of a grove of gum trees. Most of these trees were taken out to make space for buildings, but two of these still remain on our school grounds.

Curro Hermanus-leerder, Cleoné Stone in Graad 6A, het gedurende die Junie skoolvakansie aan Con Spirito se Aanlyn Eisteddfod deelgeneem en haar uitslae was soos volg:

This week, 72 years later, the touring British and Irish Lions team repeated history. Lion’s flanker, Hamish Watson and Duhan van der Merwe (wing) took the time out of their busy schedule to assist with our tree planting.

HOËRSKOOL HERMANUS HIGH SCHOOL Boxing

Dancing

The Allan Grey Entrepreneurship

Cassandra Mbatha (Grade 11) won her final comeback with gold and the trophy for Best Female Elite Boxer (51kg) in the Western Cape at the Elite Provincial Boxing Championships held at Ottery Vibrand Sport Club.

Our Hermie dancers from Haus Of Performance, competed in the South African Body Of Dance in partnership with Dance Sport South Africa, Hip Hop Championships.

What’s it like to be CEO of a listed enterprise?

The Allan Grey Entrepreneurship allowed learners to experience exactly that! With the AGEC’s 2D game they allowed learners juggling risky and rewarding corporate decisions, cutting deals, and watching your profits come flooding in… or trickling out if they weren't too careful.

Cassandra will be competing at the SA National Championships to become an SA Female Boxing Champion.

We are very proud of Cassandra and congratulate Coach Mzi Damesi and Overstrand Whale Boxing Club (producing 5 champions during this event!) with their fantastic results and the work they do for our children.

Cassandra Mbatha

Results achieved: • Elzette Swart and Kean Bezuidenhout, both in Grade 8, took first place in the Bounce Squad / 13 - 16 Championship Formations.

• Anja Louw (Grade 12), Carmen Kruger (Grade 11), Chante Roux (Grade 11) and Mine Prodehl (Grade 9) formed part of the Haus of Performance group in Illusion Force / 17 & Over Championship Formations and took 3rd place.

• In the 17 & Over Championship Duo, Carmen Kruger & Chante Roux ended in 5th Place.

• Mine Prodehl also received a 6th Place for her 13 - 16 Championship Female Solo.

A series of adventurous quests took them to different places in the ever-changing world of business, interviewing executives to hire, building their start-up’s first profit making product from scratch to commercially launching it with clever marketing campaigns.

Our Hermie Business Study learners rose to the challenge, and excellent results were proof of the quality learners Hermanus High School has always been proud of.

Congratulations to the following learners: • 25. Christoff Dahl (Grade 11) • 30. Olivia Liebenberg (Grade 11) • 35. Christo Claassen (Grade 11) • 57. Ayakha Kamana (Grade 12) • 74. Anrie van Niekerk (Grade 11) • 126. Margot Scheepers (Grade 9) • 177. Henrique Lourens (Grade 10)

All these dancers are promoted to compete in the World Trial Circuit section in 2022.

HOËRSKOOL HERMANUS HIGH SCHOOL What’s all that Racket?

Dance with your heart, your feet will follow!

While lingering lockdown laws have put an unfortunate hiatus on much of the Hermie sporting activities, our teams and individual players have been fortunate to show their talents on the court on a number of occasions. Thus far, the results for 2021 are as follows: Individual achievements: • Karla van Wyk competed at the SA Schools Closed in Johannesburg from 16 -18 April where she truly showed her excellence. She was also part of the Boland U/16 team that competed at the Margery Taylor SA Schools Country Festival. Karla was instrumental in helping her team win first place in that competition. She has been chosen to form part of the SA Country District Team competing in July. Congratulations on receiving your full provincial colours for this achievement Karla!

• Marinus Neetlingh and Vaugh Kuhn also competed at the Margery Taylor SA Schools Country Festival in Bloemfontein and both their teams ended in first place. A truly remarkable achievement!

• On the 8th of May, Ashton Roets competed at the Western Province Open and ended in 11th place.

Leerders van die Hoërskool Hermanus het deelgeneem aan ‘n dansdemonstrasie van ballet, kontemporêr/jazz, hip hop en klopdans. Die opelug-geleentheid het geskied op die sportveld waar die pawiljoen vir sitplek gebruik is - ons eie opelug teater!

Karla van Wyk

Die tweede deel van die program het bestaan uit ‘n choreografiese kompetisie waar leerders die tema “I love Hermanus” gebruik het as stimulant om hulle eie werk te skep. Daar was ongelooflike kreatiwiteit en talent in beide die junior en senior afdelings. Juffrou Goosen van Hoërskool Hermanus en juffrou East van Laerskool Hermanus het die indrukwekkende items beoordeel.

Die wenners is soos volg: • “Two girls dancing their hearts “ duet het derde gekom (Kaitlyn Coetzer en Theresa Groenewald) • “White shirt” solo het tweede gekom (Marie Viljoen) • “He Makes us brave” solo het eerste gekom (Megan Nepgen) Marie Viljoen het ook “The Most Innovative Item” gewen.

Curious Minds “The World Knowledge Olympiad is a longstanding national Olympiad for Grade 6 - 12 learners in South African Schools. The aim of the Olympiad is to test the general knowledge of learners from Grades 6 - 12 and encourage them to access appropriate media sources to expand their knowledge and understanding of the world around them. In so doing learners develop 21st century skills such as curiosity, self-driven learning, personal initiative and global awareness.”

Seven of our learners entered the World Knowledge Olympiad and we are very excited about three of them who are through to the second round which will take place on the 3rd of August!

RUGBYKAPTEIN

Wat maak dit spesiaal om vir Hoërskool Overberg se eerstespan te speel?

Die Swart-trui. Jy sukkel om die trotse gevoel wat jy kry te beskryf, wanneer jy daardie trui oor jou kop trek voor jy opdraf. Dit dwing verskriklik baie respek af en om te weet dat die hele skool jou 100% ondersteun is ‘n groot eer en ‘n reuse voorreg.

Wie is die grapgat in die span en hoekom?

Definitief Cameron! Hy is een van daardie ouens wat jou altyd laat lag en kan enige strawwe oefensessie ligter maak met sy grappe.

Wat is die sterkpunte van julle span die jaar?

Ons sterkpunt is, dat ons vir mekaar speel en nie vir ons self nie. Almal gee hulle alles tot op die laaste sekond en gooi nooit tou op nie.

Wie was jou matriekheld toe jy in Gr 8/Gr.9 was?

Evan Roos.

Wat motiveer jou om Saterdag na Saterdag jou beste op die veld te gee?

Om ons skool se naam hoog te hou is ons eerste prioriteit en net die liefde vir rugby motiveer jou om jou beste te gee vir elke wedstryd.

Wat is die lekkerste oomblik na `n wedstryd?

Om in ‘n sirkel saam te kom en ons kreet te doen om alles aftesluit.

Kies een: • Tackle of Clean: Tackle • Dummy of Side-step: Side-Step • Wendriedruk of wenskop: Wendrie druk

Julle span kom al 5 jaar saam. Wat maak julle span spesiaal?

Ons span se broederskap is besonders en almal hanteer mekaar met respek. Daarom kan ons speel as ‘n eenheid en ook leer uitmekaar se foute uit. Almal in die span het dieselfde visie en ons almal werk hard om dit te bereik en ‘n realiteit te maak.

“If the plan doesn’t work, change the plan, but never the goal” Author Unknown

Wat is julle span se grootste oomblik die afgelope 5 jaar?

Op 10 Mei 2021 het ons, ons eerste rugbywedstryd gespeel in meer as ‘n jaar as gevolg van Covid-19. Dit het vir die ouens alles beteken om weer te kon speel en toe die eindfluitjie blaas het ons almal besef dat al die hardewerk die moeite werd was.

HOËRSKOOL BREDASDORP 5-a-side Astro Hokkiebaan

By Hoërskool Bredasdorp is ons vasbeslote om te belê in die lewens van ons leerders. Een van die maniere hoe ons dit doen, is deur sport. Dit is waar hokkie ter sprake kom.

As sport het hokkie baie verander en speel baie skole deesdae op astro oppervlaktes. Om kompeterend te kan bly in die sport en ons spelers die beste vaardighede te help ontwikkel, moet ons saam met dit verander!

Ons BD’s is daarom in ekstase oor ons nuutste skoolprojek: om ons eie “5-a-side” astro hokkiebaan te bou! So verbeter ons, ons skool se sportfasiliteite. Die droom is stadig maar seker besig om te realiseer! Hierdie baan sal 36m x 36m in grootte wees en sal ons hokkiespelers help om hul astro vaardighede te slyp. Die beplanning en fondsinsamelings vir ons skool se splinternuwe “5-a-side” astrobaan is reeds in werking en ons is baie opgewonde hieroor!

Hoërskool Bredasdorp wil u uitnooi om deel te word van hierdie projek. Kom help so om ons gemeenskap se hokkie sportsterre te ontwikkel! ‘n Webtuiste is geskep vir donateurs wat ‘n bydrae wil maak tot hierdie projek. Deur ‘n donasie te maak, kan u ‘n “turf-tile” van die astrobaan koop teen R250 per teël!

Gaan kyk gerus op ons webtuiste: www.hsbredasdorpastrofund.com Saam kan ons dit vir ons skool, ons gemeenskap, ons leerders en ons hokkiespelers laat gebeur!

Kriekettoer 2021 Menere van Niekerk, Vermeulen en van der Vyver beplan ‘n kriekettoer in Oktober 2021 na Hoërskool Marensky (Tzaneen) met ‘n HS Bredasdorp krieketspan. Daar is altyd goeie krieketskole betrokke by die toernooi soos Affies, Waterkloof, Dr Malan, Ben Voster ens.

Rasionaal vir die beplanning van so ‘n toer: • Verbetering en groei van HSB krieket.

• Voorbereiding van junior krieketspelers vir toekoms.

• Brei die uitkyk van die leerders op die lewe uit.

• Leerders geleenthede gedurende Covid 19 te gee.

• Behoud van leerders en aanmoediging om hier te bly weens geleenthede wat geskep word. Ons probeer elke 2de jaar ‘n ordentlike kriekettoer hou.

Daar word baie uitgesien na die toer en ons glo Covid 19 sal ons kans gee om hierdie geleentheid mee en maak.

LAERSKOOL GANSBAAI Overberg Netbal

Houtkruis van HOOP

Baie geluk aan Litha Tyindyi (O/12) en Joy Hans (O/13) wat opgeneem is in die Overberg Netbalspan.

PSALM 71:14 "Maar ek sal aanhou hoop, U meer en meer prys."

Laerskool Brits (Noord-Wes) se storie en hul geloofsuitdaging aan skole was die inspirasie dat Laerskool Gansbaai ook 'n kruis van HOOP op ons skoolgrond plant.

Geel beteken hoop, dit is 'n teken van God se teenwoordigheid en is ook die kleur van oorwinning.

Mag hierdie kruis vir elkeen hoop bring.

Mag elkeen van ons elke dag God se teenwoordigheid voel. Mag ons hierdie virus oorwin!

As Jesus se dissipels wil ons hierdie hoop en kalmte met almal deel. Buig voor die kruis, steek jou hande uit na Jesus en ontvang Sy vrede!

Litha Tyindyi (O.12)

Joy Hans (O.13)

Ons daag alle skole in ons distrik uit om ook kruise van HOOP by hul skool te plant sodat ons sáám vir Jesus kan skyn in hierdie onseker tyd.

Baie dankie, Marchelle Mostert, vir die skenking van die houtkruis.

Tayden sou verlede jaar aan die Internasionale Wêreld Individuele Skole Skaak Kompetisie in Panama deelgeneem het maar kon ongelukkig nie weens COVID. Hy het vrede daarmee gemaak maar sy woorde aan sy pa is "Aanhouer Wen".... dit laat ons harte warm klop wanneer 'n leerder die skool se leuse ter harte neem.

Announcing the 20 schools who have been selected to make their movies for Filmit 33 Schools from South Africa and 2 from Namibia entered 2-minute film pitches for the Filmit competition during the month of June. Our first-round panel of judges consisting of Bradley Joshua from Gambit Films, Moenier Hendricks from Homebrew Films, and Marcel Spaumer and Richard September from Suidooster went through all 70 film concepts pitched by these school groups, and selected twenty they believe have entertainment value, is doable, evoked interest and should make for a good short film. All judges compiled a short video in which they share their professional opinion, observation, and subsequent recommendations on what the 20 approved film groups should focus on when heading into the mentorship programme in preparation for the making of their films. These videos are shared on the Paul Roos Gymnasium YouTube channel.

One-on-one mentorship by industry specialists kick off on the 27th of July. This mentorship will continue over a two-week period up until the 6th of August. It will take place online (via Zoom sessions) and will be presented by five actors from the TV series Suidooster. Each actor will be allocated to four of the participating schools. These actors will guide the learners in the early phases of development of their films.

They are Marco Spaumer, Dean Smith, Esther von Waltsleben, Jawaahier Petersen and Eden Classens. The 20 schools who submitted the best film concepts in 2021 and who move on to the next round of the Filmit competition are: • • • • • • • •

Marcel Spaumer The Filmit team wants to inspire all schools who entered (also those who did not qualify to move on to the next round) to up their game and learn how to improve their ideas and concepts, if not for the 2021 competition – then definitely for the 2022 competition. A pre-recorded mentorship video (including advice from industry professionals) on pre-production, production and post-production of films will be shared via the Paul Roos Gymnasium YouTube channel. This video is made available free of charge for all 35 schools who entered the competition. Contributors to this video are Johannes Pieter Nel (director of photography), Louis Pretorius (screenwriter), Zandré Coetzer (Nagvlug Films), Lloyd O’Conner (sound engineer), Fahema Hendricks (director of photography), Braam du Toit (composer), Eva du Preez (editor), Neil Sandilands (acting for the camera) and Michael Botha (postproduction on sound). The mentorship programme was made possible by Atterbury and WeBuyCars.

It will be uploaded and available for private streaming on the PRG YouTube channel on the 26th of July 2021.
