AWSUM Celebrity Interview

Nasionale Braaidag & Braaitoer Epiese natuurtonele, padritavonture, vroegoggendkoffie in die buitelug, fantastiese kampeerplekke en meer braaie as wat jy jou kan indink – daar kan niks meer Suid-Afrikaans wees as die jaarlikse Nasionale Braaitoer nie, die perfekte aptytwekker vir Nasionale Braaidag, soos gereël deur die ikoniese Jan Braai. Ons het opgevang met Jan by die vertrek van sy 200-sterk kavalkade op die Nasionale Braaitoer.

V Hoe het die hele Nasionale Braaidag-inisiatief ontstaan?

A Ons is mal oor braai – daar is geen argument daaroor nie. As ‘n nasie is ons op Nasionale Braaidag soos geen ander tyd verenig nie. Ons deel stories, ontspan, dink na en geniet net die land wat ons die geleentheid gee om groot hoeveelhede braaihout te verbrand. En in 2017 is daar meer as een geleentheid om rondom ‘n vuur bymekaar te kom.

V Wat is spesiaal aan vanjaar se Nasionale Braaidag?

A Omdat Nasionale Braaidag hierdie jaar op ‘n Sondag val, is daar ‘n hele Saterdag beskikbaar om vir die land se grootste openbare vakansiedag voor te berei. Geïnspireer deur die Nederlandse vakanse van Koningsnag net voor Koningsdag, moedig ons alle Suid-Afrikaners aan om deel te neem aan Nasionale Braainag die aand voor Nasionale Braaidag. Dit is die kans vir die braaiers van Suid-Afrika om lekker vroeg al in die Nasionale Braaidagstemming te kom. Dit is die partytjiebraai voor Nasionale Braaidag se ontspannende braai.

V Maar wag, daar’s meer aan die braaibeweging – kort voor Nasionale Braaidag toer jy en ‘n 200-sterk toerende karnaval die land as die Nasionale Braaitoer. Wat gebeur tydens hierdie hierdie toer?

A Dink aan dit as ‘n politieke saamtrek voor ‘n verkiesing, behalwe dat ons nie stemme soek nie, maar ‘n oproep tot miljoene Suid-Afrikaners maak om saam te kom rondom braaivleisvure en ons erfenis te vier. Nou in sy vyfde jaar, tree die Nasionale Braaitoer op as ‘n rokerige, vlamgebraaide boodskapper vir Nasionale Braaidag, met die deelnemers aan die Toer wat die braaiboodskap deur die land versprei en openbare opwinding opwek vir ons land se vinnignaderkomende grootste dag van braai. Die 2017 Nasionale Braaitoer het op 10 September in Kaapstad afgeskop en stop by ikoniese plekke soos Kaap Agulhas, Calitzdorp, Plettenbergbaai en Stormsrivier voor die finale stop in Port Elizabeth.

V Wat is die doel van die Nasionale Braaitoer?

A Dit gaan alles daaroor om ons visie van nasiebou rondom ’n vuur te bevorder en ten toon te stel. Dit is ‘n soort bloudruk oor hoe om erfenismaand en Erfenisdag die beste te vier. Dit gaan oor die saambring van diverse mense om die een ding te doen wat ons almal geniet, naamlik kosmaak en kuier rondom ‘n oop vuur. Dit is ook ‘n geleentheid om openbare opgewondenheid en momentum in die aanloop tot 24 September op te bou op ‘n manier wat Suid-Afrikaners laat dink oor hoe om hulle eie erfenis te vier, en hoe fantasties dit is om ‘n Suid-Afrikaner te wees.

AWSUM NEWS SEPTEMBER 2017

V Hoe werk die Nasionale Braaitoer nou eintlik?

A Soos altyd is die roete gekies om die verskeidenheid van die Suid-Afrikaanse natuurskoon in te neem en om te fokus op belangrike geskiedkundige plekke op die roete. Die doel van die Nasionale Braaitoer is vir deelnemers om dit te geniet, maar ook om meer oor ons wonderlike land te leer.

V Hoekom moet deelnemers ‘n Suid-Afrikaanse vlag hê?

A Met registrasie ontvang elke deelnemer ‘n volgrootte Suid-Afrikaanse vlag.

Die deelnemers dra hierdie vlae ten alle tye. Dit is die reënboogwuif van die Toer.

V Wat is die rol van Nasionale Braaidag en die Nasionale Braaitoer in ons land?

A Dit is herinneringe dat ons as inwoners van so ‘n ongelooflike diverse land iets in gemeen het. Ons land het ‘n ryk en diverse erfenis en dit moet gevier word. Maar dit is belangrik om een ding te deel, en daardie een ding is die nasie se liefde vir kosmaak oor die kole van ‘n vuur. Ons het baie om te vier as ‘n nasie en as diverse mense. Watter beter manier as met ‘n Toer wat jou meer leer oor ons kollektiewe erfenis en jou mede-Suid-Afrikaners, en ‘n spesiale dag wat jou aanmoedig om dit rondom ‘n vuur te vier.

V Jy is die eerste AWSUM-voorbladgesig om twee keer op ons omslag te verskyn – baie geluk! Wat dink jy daarvan?

A Dit is regtig AWSUM – en sê baie oor ons liefde vir braai! Dankie – ek sien uit na meer.

Winter sport season ended Our winter sport season ended with a variety of sports days, tournaments and matches. It was a good season. Bellpark is proud of every learner who played their very best.

LAERSKOOL BELLVILLE-NOORD Trots op ons leerders Bellville-Noord het ‘n hele paar leerlinge wat ons baie trots gemaak het die afgelope tydjie: • Clarese Lourens (Graad 2) het op Sondag, 10 September na Boekarest, Roemenië toe vertrek om Suid-Afrika in ‘n wêreldwye karate-kompetisie te verteenwoordig. Sy is die jongste SA karate-verteenwoordiger nog en van die Kinjite Dojo-klub.

• Christof Etzebeth (Graad 6) is genooi na die WP o.12 rugby-oefeninge. Hy het die proewe dus suksesvol deurloop en gaan WP op o.12-vlak verteenwoordig.

• Ninene Naude (Graad 6) het weer die Wes-Kaapgimnastiekspan gehaal.

• Tenielle Herselman (Graad 3) het ‘n goue medalje in haar kategorie gewen in ‘n WKODkunskompetisie. Die werke word vanaf 10 September uitgestal in een van die Iziko Museums Gallery.

Die naweek van 8 tot 10 September het 14 Landsdienslede van Bellville-Noord saam met Laerskole Brackenfell en Parow-Noord ‘n heerlike avontuurkamp buite Grabouw meegemaak. Al drie hierdie skole skakel in by die Angra Avontuurklub. Van die aktiwiteite wat meegemaak was was vlotbou en -roei, hindernisbane, probleemoplossing en kanoroei. Die ziplyn (in die dag én in die nag) oor ‘n dam was ook baie gewild. Die kos was ook baie lekker.

Toewyding beloon Die 0/11A-netbalspan van die Laerskool Brackenfell het tydens die Kaapstadse Laerskole Netbalkampioenskappe op 9 September as wenners uit die stryd getree. Hierdie span het skoonskip gemaak in die A-liga en het op die dag afgereken met Kenridge (16–8), Sun Valley (19–3), Bastion in die semi-finaal (17–7) en weer met Kenridge in die finaal (18–7). Die span se sukses word toegeskryf aan die puik samewerking tussen spelers, ouers en afrigters!

Brackies doen hul deel Op Vrydag, 1 September het talle Brackies met hulle pantoffels skool toe gekom. Elke leerder wat pantoffels wou dra, moes R10 betaal. Die fondse wat ingesamel is, is geskenk aan die Paarl Skool om hulle fasiliteite te verbeter. Die kleurryke pantoffels was ‘n asemrowende prentjie.

Market Day After six weeks of preparation and learning how to set up a business, the Grade 7s finally had the opportunity to test their entrepreneurial skills on Friday, 8 September.

The three venues were literally buzzing as 60 groups of ‘business owners’ sold their wares and entertained eager ‘shoppers’ with games from 09:00 until 11:30.

Healthy profits were made (a portion of which was donated to charity) and valuable skills were acquired.

Market Day 2017 was a great success and a day that was thoroughly enjoyed by all who participated!

Well done, Grade 7s!

LAERSKOOL EVERSDAL CHOC besoek Eversdal Lynette Muthuray van CHOC het die leerders by Laerskool Eversdal op Vrydag, 8 September tydens die weeklikse saalbyeenkoms besoek.

CHOC (Childhood Cancer Foundation South Africa) is ‘n nasionale organisasie wat ouers wat van ver af kom omdat hulle kinders behandeling vir kanker moet kry, ondersteun deur onder andere vir hulle akkommodasie aan te bied.

September is die maand waarin daar op bewusmaking van kinderkanker (wat anders is as kanker in volwassenes) gefokus word. Lynette het die kinders geleer dat die diagnose van kanker nie ‘n doodsvonnis hoef te wees nie en vir hulle vertel van die simptome wat hulle met hulle ouers moet bespreek.

Bacon & Cider Roosterkoek

WHAT YOU NEED (makes 8)

• 1 packet bacon (250 g of your favourite type) • 1 small packet self-raising flour (500 g) • 1 tsp salt • 1 tot olive oil • 1 bottle cider

WHAT YOU DO 1. Either braai the bacon on a grid over coals until crisp or fry it in a pan until crisp. Remove from the heat, let it cool down and chop into small pieces.

2. To your favourite mixing bowl add the self-raising flour, salt and crispy braaied chopped-up bacon.

Mix this using one of your recently washed hands.

3. Add the olive oil and cider.

Using one or both of your recently washed hands, mix and knead everything together. You do not need to overdo this step. Be lazy and knead as little as possible; as soon as everything is properly combined you’re good to go.

4. Use your hands and on a flat surface, shape this stretchy piece of dough into a flat rectangle or square as well as you can manage.

Now use a sharp knife and cut the dough into 8 or 9 equal portions.

Fix the shape of each one slightly and you’re done. Using extra flour to dust the dough throughout this process makes it infinitely easier to deal with.

5. Braai on a grid over mediumheat coals for about 15 to 20 minutes. It is important to turn the roosterkoek often, so that they do not burn, but get cooked through. The outside should be crispy and ever so slightly charred here and there, and the inside obviously done. If there is a hollow sound when you tap them, they are ready. Insert a sharp knife into one and if it comes out clean, you know for a fact that they are ready.

6. Serve warm with butter and cheese or with any braaied meat.

I am a massive fan of roosterkoek and the culinary giants bacon and cider also make regular appearances at my braai fire. Together, they will change the way you look at roosterkoek forever. The word ‘roosterkoek’ is Afrikaans for a bread roll baked on your grid over the coals of a wood fire. To my mind, the word is part of common language in South Africa and can de facto be used in all 11 official languages. Everything about this recipe is great – few ingredients, a very easy process and a fantastic tasting result. As it happens, these roosterkoek go very well with any type of braaied meat.

Enjoy Heritage Day and our very own National Braai Day on 24 September with these two exclusive recipes by Jan Braai, founder of National Braai Day.

Chocolate Fondant Potjie Pudding There is a medical reason why you should eat chocolate. The scent of the chocolate increases theta brain waves, which induces relaxation. We all know how vitally important it is to destress, relax and feel good about your life. And this is why you and your loved ones should consume the baked chocolate potjie as often as possible. It will make you a better person.

WHAT YOU NEED

WHAT TO DO

(feeds 8)

1. Make the batter, part 1: In your no. 10 flat-bottomed baking potjie, whisk the egg and then use your wooden spoon and mix the butter, milk and vanilla with the whisked egg.

2. Make the batter, part 2: Now mix the flour, cocoa, salt, sugar and chopped chocolate pieces into the wet mixture of step 1. Just use the sugar and cocoa specified as ingredients for the batter, not the sugar and cocoa for the sauce, which only comes in the next step. Everything needs to be mixed properly so use a wooden spoon and put in some effort. If you’re unfit get one of your friends or family members to help you, or buy yourself a cordless stick blender (it changed my life).

3. Make the sauce: Stir the sugar, cocoa powder and boiling water together until all the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

Slowly pour this hot cocoa-sugar-water mixture over the dough mixture that is already in the pot.

4. Bake: Put the lid on the potjie and bake for 25 minutes by placing coals under the pot and a lot of coals on the lid of the pot. Your work of art is ready when the top is firm to the touch.

5. Serve with fresh cream or ice cream.

For the batter • 1 egg • 3 tots butter (melted) • ½ cup milk • ½ tot vanilla essence • 1 cup self-raising flour • 1 tot cocoa powder • pinch of salt • ½ cup sugar • 2 small slabs dark chocolate (80 g each, broken into blocks)

For the sauce • 1½ cups brown sugar • 2 tots cocoa powder • 1½ cups boiling water

To serve • fresh cream or ice cream

Hattie shines at National Technical Competition

Senior Choir

We wish to congratulate Winston du Plessis, a Grade 12 mechanical student from Bellville Technical High school, under the mentorship of his mechanical teacher, Mr Human, on achieving the third place at the national Toyota Technical Education Programme School Skills Competition that took place during the week of 21 to 25 August in Johannesburg.

During this competition the competitors had to be able to work on mechanical motor engines to test their knowledge and skills regarding the mechanical working of these engines and also to measure their ability to solve mechanical problems.

The competition had three divisions: bodywork, spray paint and motor mechanics.

Winston achieved his third place in the motor mechanic division, the division on which the most focus and emphasis were placed.

Winston was rewarded with an apprenticeship at Toyota next year. Well done, Winston, we are so proud of you! May you have a promising future!

Congratulations to the following three Senior Choir members who were successful in the auditions for the Tygerburg Children’s Choir Lakhanya Peter (Grade 4), Skye Lewack (Grade 6) and Tim Hendricks (Grade 5).

They will now join this world famous choir under the well-known Hendrick Loock.

De Kuilen hou Toneelfees Laerskool De Kuilen het weer vanjaar ‘n wonderlike geslaagde toneelfees gehou. ‘n Hele aantal laerskole het aan die toneelfees deelgeneem, onder andere Laerskole Durbanville, Bastion, Eversdal, Somerset-Wes en De Kuilen. Hoërskool Tygerberg en Piketberg het op Saterdag hul produksies aangebied. Elf produksies is oor drie dae op Laerskool De Kuilen se verhoog aangebied. Laerskool Durbanville was die feeswenners vir Laerskole. In die Hoërskool-afdeling het Daniële de Villiers van Hoërskool Tygerberg, met haar eenvrouvertoning met die louere wegestap.

Sy was manjifiek. Laerskool De Kuilen se produksie, ‘n Midsomernagdroom, was verruklik. Die liefdestwis tussen die koning van die elwe, Oberon, en die feëkoningin, Titania, bereik ‘n hoogtepunt met Oberon wat Titania wil kul en verneder. Die feëtjies het hul hande vol om hierdie twee uit mekaar se geselskap te hou, tot Puk besluit om hulle ‘n les in ware liefde te leer.

Zandri Smith (Puk) en Taygan Olivier (Oberon).
