4 Tips to have the best Easter road trip ever There’s nothing quite like packing your bags and hitting the road for a few days. With Easter holidays coming up, a road trip provides the perfect getaway. Of course, when you head out on the road you’ve got to be sure to make the most of it. Use these four tips to plan the perfect Easter road trip for you and your family.

1 Take the scenic route

2 Create a playlist

Don’t hurry to your destination, no matter how excited you are to get there.

There are so many extraordinary scenic routes to follow in South Africa and you should take advantage of them. There’s no point in going on a road trip if you’re not going to take the time to enjoy the drive. Open the windows and let the fresh air in as you enjoy the view from the open road. However remember not to go too far off the beaten path and if you do, rather hire a 4x4 than trek into the bush with a littly Noddy car.

Music is essential to any road trip.

Of course, it can’t just be any music – it has to be world classroad trip music. And don’t even think about playing album after album or one artist at a time.

You’ve got to mix it up. Spend some time going through your music and put in the effort to create the perfect road trip playlist. There’s nothing quite like singing along to Bohemian Rhapsody as you cruise over a mountain pass. Use the the South African road trip playlist on the next page for inspiration to create your own playlist.

3 Stop along the way Don’t be the driver that won’t stop the car unless it’s for an emergency. You’ll find the most spectacular hidden treasures while you’re exploring the open road. You don’t want to miss discovering something truly unique because you’re worrying about arriving on time or getting to your destination as soon as humanly possible. Take some time to explore – you won’t regret it.t.

4 Be prepared for disaster

off to?

Where are we

You already know to fill up on petrol and have your oil and water checked, but there are other safety measures you should put in place. Keep a 5-litre bottle of water in your boot in case of a breakdown. It may seem silly or unnecessary, but imagine breaking down on a deserted road on the hottest day of the year. You should also get the numbers of towing services for wherever you’re going. And,

Getting behind the wheel and heading out on a road trip can be a truly wonderful experience and you should make the most of it.

Flex your mussels!!

by Jenny Morris Follow Jenny @jennymorrischef

1. Johnny Cleg – Great Heart

Although Johnny Cleg was born a Brit, he is considered one of South Africa’s most celebrated musicians. His song Great Heart from the movie Jock of The Bushveld is just one of many of his songs that echoes within any South African sport stadium and has managed to achieve anthem status with crowds in this country he now calls home.

2. Toto – Africa The initial idea for this song came from the band’s vocalist David Paich. He explains the idea behind the song as “... a white boy who is trying to write a song about Africa, but since he’s never been there, he can only tell what he has seen on TV.“ We think he did a pretty good job imagining what Africa is like.

3. Heuwels Fantasties – National Braai Day Anthem The local Cape Town electronic rock band in conjunction with the Soweto Gospel Choir produced this song in 2009 to celebrate the country’s Heritage Day on 24 September. The song’s lyrics echo South Africans through their common social denominator, the braai!

4. Freshly Ground – Do Be Doo The Capetonian Afro-fusion band is probably best known for their feature in the song Waka Waka by Colombian pop star Shakira that was the official song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Do Be Doo was this band’s first hit single and includes a unique musical style that blends different elements of traditional South African music.

5. Mondoza – Nkalakatha This Sowetan musician strives to give an inspirational message to kwaito. He uses his music as a way to encourage young South Africans to achieve their goals. In 2001, his song Nkalakatha won the Song Of The Year title at the South African Music Awards.

6. Beatenberg – Feels Like Heaven Although Beatenberg is a fresh new face in pop music from South Africa, they quickly received international recognition with their song Feels Like Heaven that is a remix favourite in clubs across the world.

7. Miriam Makeba – ClickSong Nicknamed as Mama Africa, this famous South African singer and civil right activist has received a few Grammy Awards for her beautiful African melodies. This fantastic pick-me-up song celebrates her native tongue in all its glory.

8. Jeremy Loops – Sinner Jeremy Loops, a Cape Town loop-pedal artist, skilled in guitar, harmonica, beatbox, ukelele and banjo is also relatively new on the music scene but became a playlist favorite with his songs that perfectly capture the diversity of South Africa.

9. Karen Zoid – Afrikaners Is Plesierig Afrikaners Is Plesierig is not only a favourite amongst those who speak Afrikaans, but you would even notice other native tongue speakers with heads banging to this spiced-up version of an old classic. The alternative Karin Zoid is known as South Africa’s queen of rock, as she so easily charms the crowds with her electric guitar.

10. Mango Groove – Special Star Mango Groove is an 11-member South African Afropop band whose music fuses marabi, kwela, and pop music. They have sold more than 700 000 albums in South Africa. This song was dedicated to Spokes Mashiyane, the king of kwela, but is sure to get any one up and grooving to its delightful beats.

MUSSELS WITH TOMATO VINAIGRETTE Preparation time 10 minutes | Cooking time 5 minutes | Serves 4 The cover of this book is what really got my heart beating, my favourite colour turquoise and the absolute best fruit on earth, the wonderful pomegranate, such a beautiful fruit, filled with little ruby jewels. When I page through the pages of Mariana’s Country Kitchen, I feel something I can’t explain – almost emotional, reminding me of growing up in my parents’ kitchen and garden. I love this book – it is one of the most beautiful books I have seen in a very long time, I adore the recipes, love the styling and stories, Im just in love with this book!!!!!

In 2000, Mariana Esterhuizen and her husband said goodbye to city living and opened a restaurant in the village of Stanford. Since then Mariana’s has grown into one of the top eateries in South Africa, attracting foodies from all over. The average wait for a table is three months. The secret? Mariana serves food fresh from her own extensive vegetable, fruit and herb garden, prepared in her own unique way. Her delightful book includes recipes for the restaurant’s top dishes, along with vegetable dishes, classic dishes, and Mariana’s favourite childhood foods, courtesy of her mother.

HEALTH

Mental toughness for sports teams It may sound completely bonkers, but it has often been said that it is ‘valuable’ for a team to lose the occasional match during the course of a season. Sport psychologist Greg Wilmot explores this thought ahead of rugby season coming up.

Surely a team should try and win each and every match played? While I would never suggest that a team ever try to deliberately lose a game, there are valuable lessons to be learned from the reaction of a team when it loses.

Firstly, teams should always try and win a match fairly through executing good technique and staying focused on individual and/or team goals rather than be aggressive or dirty.

Winning competitions or doing drills well during practices leaves any player/athlete feeling confident about their ability, skill and decision making. These experiences prove that we are competent at the sport. Also, when we do something well, we get compliments from important people such as coaches, parents and friends. Experiencing competence and support from others are two key factors that help develop and maintain our motivation.

On the other hand, losing a match or failing to meet one’s performance goals usually results in a lot of unhappiness, frustration and even finger-pointing or blame. Some people

may either blame themselves or act out in frustration. Being aggressive when losing or in the next match won’t help, as there is no aim of improving your technique or adapting your strategy. Feeling ashamed about your performance or actions often results in a low effort in either training or the next pressured situation.

One of the central features of ‘mental toughness’ is the ability to ‘bounce back’ after a defeat. Experiencing a loss can help a team to become aware of their weaknesses and adapt their response to being placed under pressure. Teams or athletes that are ‘problemfocused’ can use the negative experience and information from a losing performance to fix mistakes that contributed to the loss. Both positive and negative responses to sport are valuable. Understanding how to make use of negative emotions following a defeat or poor performance can both improve one’s performance and influence our enjoyment, even when losing.

Consider these questions after losing a match, or to evaluate a disappointing performance:

Planning How can I improve or adapt?

How does losing affect my approach to training this week?

Are there new resources I can use to develop my skills?

Gathering information What mistakes did I make?

What techniques or strategies were either effective or ineffective?

Developing new skills to improve Do I need to practise my current skills more?

What new techniques can I learn to ensure a good quality performance? Good quality training will improve my performance under pressure.

HEALTH & WELLBEING

School run – avoid the morning rush One thing all parents with school-age children can relate to is the challenge of getting them up, fed and off to school in the morning. As the term ticks along, routine gets more lax and getting out of bed becomes less and less appealing. To avoid the daily chaos, put some structure in place – sooner rather than later.

An on-time and organised child experiences less anxiety and stress during the school day. Parents can also avoid additional trips to school and rushed apologies to teachers if they work together with their children to develop a morning routine. Each family has a unique morning routine. As your child’s workload and schedule expands, the skill of creating and sticking to a routine will aid their learning and independence.

Tips for streamlining the morning rush Stay calm and carry on

Lay it out like crime scene

Act preemptively – take a minute to talk to or cuddle your child as they wake up – this may prevent attentionseeking tactics that delay the process later. Similarly, try to remain calm – the more flustered and anxious you are, the more likely your child is to slow down. There will be days when your child is dreading going to school. Show sensitivity to this and you will find that things run more smoothly.

Set out clean clothes, bags and books the night before in a designated spot near the door. Involve your children in packing everything they need the night before, teaching them to be aware of what’s required to fully participate in class and school activities. If your child leans towards forgetfulness, charts and to-do lists can help them learn to keep track of their belongings and responsibilities.

Appoint a rotating Director

Stock up on wholesome, easy-to-make breakfast foods and keep them in accessible places so that children can help themselves. They will practise independence and free up your time. School-age children can stack their dishes in the sink or dishwasher, so make each one responsible for their own mess. It can be the Director’s duty to check that everybody is pulling their weight.

If you have more than one child, rotate the position of morning Director – this person is responsible for making sure everybody gets what needs doing done. Incentives can include picking the music for that morning’s drive. If your children are learning to tell the time, incorporate this into the routine, get them to note increments of ten or fifteen minutes.

Did good carbs get a bad rap?

Amidst the proliferation of food fads and eating plans that rose to popularity in the past year, it’s hard to tell what’s up and what’s down. One food group that got an unfairly bad rap in 2015 and deserves a second chance?

Carbohydrates.

Incorporating the right kinds of starchy foods into your diet is consistent with consuming fewer calories and, as a result, achieving sustainable weight loss. In fact, the vitamins and minerals as well as filling fibre found in carbohydrates might just be the answer to staving off energy dips and unnecessary snacking, staying alert during the school or work day, and maintaining a healthy weight.

Leading nutritional experts suggest it’s the excessive consumption of refined, fatty carbohydrates like chips and oily crackers that are more likely to contribute towards weight gain. The right kinds of carbohydrates, however, can actually assist in keeping off the extra kilos, by increasing the resting metabolic rate (RMR) of the body, which in turn burns more calories.

Good carbohydrates are also affordable, versatile and easy to prepare. If you’d like to introduce more wholesome carbohydrates into your meals while following a healthy eating plan, here’s a round-up of the top five carbohydrates for weight loss:

Wholewheat pasta This versatile ingredient is high in fibre for digestive health. It’s bulkier than white pasta, which makes it super filling, so you don’t have to eat as much and you’ll stay fuller for longer after eating. This means you won’t snack in-between meals. One serving (one cup) also has around 23% of your required daily fibre intake and 16% of the required daily protein intake.

Low GI and low GL bread With our fast-paced, high-energy lifestyles, there’s a reason bread is the go-to carbohydrate of choice – it’s nutritious, requires little preparation and is quick to eat.

Choose loaves that have low GI for slow-release energy and low GL for low impact on blood sugar levels. Also opt for bread that’s high in fibre for digestive health, like low GI brown bread, low GI crushed wheat brown bread or low GI white bread.

Sweet potatoes These little gems have quickly risen to superfood status and for good reason. They’re a great source of vitamin B, vitamin C and fibre. They’re also linked to boosted collagen production, which helps fight the signs of aging.

Brown rice A healthier version, brown rice still has the hull and bran on each rice grain, giving it more fibre. It’s rich in magnesium and potassium, and keeps blood sugar levels stable.

Brown rice has also been linked to a reduction in weight carried around the middle of the body, because it’s low in calories, but has a high fibre and water content.

Barley This ancient grain is very low in calories, and contains fibre and amino acids that help boost weight loss. Barley is super affordable and a great way to bulk up soups and stews (and increase their fibre content).

Waterprojek

Klein skool met groot hart

Die personeel, ouers en leerders van Laerskool Nahoon in Oos-Londen het besluit om hulle deel te doen om te probeer om ‘n bietjie verligting te bring vir die dele van ons land wat swaar gebuk gaan onder die vreeslike droogte. Hulle het vir ‘n week lank (8–12 Februarie) die projek van WSSA (Water Shortage South Africa) ondersteun en leerders moes water skool toe bring om dan weer verder te versprei.

Die mikpunt was om gedurende die vyf dae 5 000ℓ water te probeer insamel - 1 000ℓ/dag! Dit het aanvanklik geklink na baie water vir ‘n skool met net meer as 300 leerders, maar die reaksie was verstommend!

Die mikpunt is binne drie dae bereik, en uiteindelik is daar altesaam 8 992ℓ water ingesamel!

Die personeel het belowe dat hulle almal met hulle klere aan in die skool se swembad sou spring indien die mikpunt bereik sou word! Hulle het dus hulle belofte nagekom en het op Vrydag om 12:00 almal saam in die swembad gespring! Daar is ook ‘n groot koek geskenk vir die klas wat die meeste water ingesamel het, en dit is uiteindelik gewen deur een van die Graad R-klasse, met meer as 2 000 ℓ! ‘n Ouer by die skool, mev. Annaline Mouton, het ‘n vragmotor gereël wat al die water Vrydag by die skool kom oplaai het en na Lady Grey vervoer het. Die leerders het baie ywerig gehelp om al die bottels water vanaf die saal tot by die vragmotor te dra! Dit was ‘n heerlike, opwindende projek wat almal by die skool met entoesiasme laat saamwerk het! Hopelik kan dit help om die droogte vir die inwoners van Lady Grey ‘n bietjie te verlig.

Op 15 Februarie is Internasionale Kankerdag vir Kinders gevier en Nahoon was deel van die veldtog. Die leerders kon met gewone klere skool toe kom indien hulle ‘n donasie skenk aan CHOC. Personeel en leerders het op die netbalbaan bymekaargekom en ‘n groot hart gevorm. Daarna is ‘n minuut stilte gehou en ons het vir kinders met kanker gebid. Die leerders kon toe die harte wat hulle in die klas gemaak het, aan ‘n boom hang.

Wat ‘n wonderlike voorreg om te kon deelneem aan hierdie projek.

Study Skills Workshop George Randell Grade 4 parents attended a Study Skills Workshop run by the Grade 4 teachers. The workshop included learning how the brain learns and memorises, as well as the best conditions for effective studying. Parents practised the Laws of Learning themselves, equipping them with the skills necessary to help their child study effectively.

Some comments from the parents – and grandparents! – who attended: • “This was very informative and can be used as a life guide for studying.”

Grandmother Ms Primrose Ngqungwana and • “At least now I know how to help my child her granddaughter, Azasakhe, go over the skills as a young mother.” learnt at the workshop.
