Whether you’re doing it on your stoep in Strandfontein, or on your patio in Pretoria. Or at your mother’s brother’s uncle’s house in Kraaifontein. There’s nothing better than the smell of a chop sizzling on the coals. And as an extra bonus … WE GET THE DAY OFF!!! Our government set this day aside for all South Africans to celebrate our rich heritage.

Browsing on the internet, I’ve stumbled onto braai.com, whose mission is to position National Braai Day as South Africa’s annual day of celebration on National Heritage Day.

They’ve also shared a list of fun braai words, almost like a braai-dictionary to help you sound cool around the fire:1. Aai: a braai in the summer aka – a braai without the brrrr!2. Abbraaiviation: a very short braai.3. Abraaimowitz: a Jewish braai.4. Asskebab: If somebody makes an ass of himself/herself at a braai you call them an Asskebab.5. Aweh: various meanings and can be widely used to express something positive e.g. hello, yes, nice, good.

6. Baas: Afrikaans for boss, the guy holding the braai tongs.7. Bak: a dish, made from aluminum or stainless steel, used for storing the meat in before and after it is braaied. Some braaiers use a glass bak, but there is a safety concern in this. When you eat straight off of the braai, then a bak is unnecessary.8. Barbie: Australian slang for barbeque. What you learn to call a braai when you immigrate there.9. Black wattle: Alien vegetation that uses a lot of water when alive. Good for the environment to chop it down and braai with it. Versatile braai wood, burns easily when dry, and makes decent coals.10. Blitz: Although this is a brand-name, it is used as a universal term in South Africa for fire lighters of any kind or brand. A frequently asked question at many a braai: “where is the blitz?”11. Blitzbraai: When you light the blitz intending to braai but instead just end up getting blitzed sonder a braai.12. BMW: Braai Met Wiele - Braai met wiele wat hier daar of enige plek gesleep kan word om te braai.13. Boerie: abbreviation for

boereworsroll.14. Bokdopentjop (bok-dop-en-tjop) – ‘bring and braai’ – you may bring your bok (babe), your dop (drinks) and tjop (meat of choice).15. Bosberaad: a conference. You and your friends coming together to discuss your strategy for National Braai Day.16. Braai hard: 90′s action movie about a really rough guy who braais a lot.17. Braai hijacker: the guy that you don’t really want to invite to your braai, but have too. Cause he is someone’s boyfriend. He claims to be a chef and manages to hi-jack the braai when the real braaier goois a dop.18. Braai tongs: Weapon of choice for the braai master.19. Braaiathon: a very long braai20. Braaidsmaid: Female performing supporting role during a braai. E.g. making salad, marinating meat, making braaibroodjies.For more braaicabulary visit http://braai.com/braai-words/

So, make a date with all your pals for the 24th of September and join the revolution to unite 50 million people.

Spring is officially here, and what could be more suitable than celebrating with an entire month dedicated to South African’s favourite pastime – having a BRAAI!

WHAT YOU NEED:• 3 grapefruits• 2 tbls brown sugar (approx)

WHAT TO DO:• Set the oven to grill and

place a rack in the middle shelf.

• Cut grapefruits evenly in half, slice 2-3mm off each base to allow grapefruits to rest flat without rolling.

• If using a grapefruit knife, carefully cut along the rim of the flesh before cutting into 4 or 8 segments.

• Place grapefruits on a baking sheets, flesh side up,and sprinkle each

half with approximately 1 tsp of brown sugar to taste.

• Grill for about 10-15 minutes until flecked and speckled.Serve plain or with yoghurt.

GRILLED GRAPE FRUITSI started serving these zesty and yet slightly warming delicacies on cooler spring retreat mornings. There is something intrinsically cheerful about the smell of grapefruits that make them a welcome addition to a breakfast spread. Select ruby grapefruits for their vibrant colour and richer antioxidant content and use a grapefruit knife to cut into segments before grilling for easier eating.The sprinkle of brown sugar will melt into the grapefruit as it caramelizes, softening the bitterness and giving the surface a perfectly radiant glow. A joyous and juicy way to begin the day.

Raven Montessori"Fulfilling your true potential"

Ages 5 to 12 years

This little printer lets users choose any color on the web, or in the real world, and using simple already-existing software, print that color into a blush, eye shadow, lip gloss or any other type of makeup.

See, most makeup comes from the same basic substrates, from high-end labels like Chanel all the way down to the cheap stuff available at drug stores. Founder Grace Choi sources the same substrate for the Mink so that users can turn any image into any kind of makeup.

The idea here is that consumers are increasingly focused on instant gratification and DIY solutions. Choi also noticed that makeup consumers aren’t always loyal to certain brands, but rather focused on convenience. With Mink, users can satisfy the desire for instant gratification while still having access to any color in the world at an affordable price.

Simply choose a color on a website, Pinterest board, or snap one with your phone in the real world, and use any color picker to locate the hex code of the color. Once you have the code, you can put it into any other program like Photoshop or Paint and simply press print.

The company is targeting the younger, 13-21 demographic who are less ingrained in their habits with certain brands and retailers.

Currently, the Mink is still a prototype, which is set to retail at $300 (approx. R3000) and although the prices of the ink and raw materials aren’t available yet, we totally think Grace Choi is on to something big. What would you want to print first? Your own eyeshadow? Or what about a blusher? The options are endless.

The future of makeup ... in 3D!3D printing is all the rage

these days, but for now, it’s mostly centered around little

plastic doo-dads. The MINK, is a bit different.

Sometimes life throws you some old tiles and then you have two options: live with it, or paint and stamp it! Save yourself a heap of cash by opting

for this very clever stamp that can be used in any number of ways.

By: Germarie Bruwer and Margaux Tait from Homeology.co.za

My kitchen had been in desperate need of a tiled splash-back because unlike most old homes, I wasn’t blessed with horrid old kitchen tiles.

1.Cut 16 mm chip board to the size you want your panel to be, minus 2.5 mm on all 4 sides. This will ensure that the tiles hang over the wood a little bit to create a nice shadow line.

2. Fix 2 mirror fixings to the back — it’s easier to do this first otherwise you risk breaking a tile or two.

3. The stamp size is 150 mm x150mm so I used some very inexpensive white tiles to the same size. Fix the tiles to the panel using a tile adhesive, leaving a 2 mm space between them.

4. Use grout to fill in the spaces and let it dry for a couple of hours.

5. Prime the tiles with a standard tile primer — there are many brands on the market — and then let it cure for 24 hours.

6. Then STAMP

7. After the pattern had dried for a couple of hours, you’ll need to seal it with a craft sealer like Harlequin Paint’s Decorator’s Varnish. It’s a clear coat that will ensure that you can wipe down the tiles when they get wet or dirty.

Hoe moet jy maak?• Voeg al die droë bestanddele in ’n groot meng-bak bymekaar en meng dit goed deur.• Voeg al die nat bestanddele in ‘n apparte houer

bymekaar en meng dit ook goed.• Giet nou die nat beslag by die droë bestanddele en roer dit met ’n lepel deur. Op ’n stadium moet alles so goed vermeng wees dat dit lekker klewerig begin word. Amper soos as jy sandkastele bou.• Vul nou die klein plastiek bakkie/houertjie met die mengsel, tot bo. Voeg dan nóg ’n bietjie by – en druk dit alles stýf vas. (As dit vir jou lyk of die mengsel nog nie klewerig genoeg is nie, gooi bietjies-bietjies water daarby, totdat dit reg is.)• As jy tevrede is met die verkleefdheid, kan jy dit versigtig uit haal.• Plaas dit op ’n handdoek met waspapier daarop, sodat dit kan droog word. Dié proses sal ongeveer 48 uur duur.

Ja, die winter is verby . En dit is nóú tyd vir die super-ma’s om hulle lywe somer-reg te kry! Hierdie borrelbad-bomme sal sommer een-twee-drie weer die woema in jou wiele sit.

Die LGS-Singstorie Revue wat onlangs aangebied is, was ‘n produksie wat absoluut eie aan Laerskool George-Suid is! Deur middel van musiek en beweging het die Gr. 4 tot 7-leerders die gehoor ‘n kykie gegee in die lewe van ‘n tiener! Die boodskap wat uitgedra is, ons tieners

lewe hier en nou, was baie treffend en ouers en vriende kon beslis daarmee identifiseer! Die programsamestelling het deurgaans verras met ou, bekende, sowel as nuwe liedere. Me. Gréta Benadé het selfs ‘n besondere lied, Hier en nou, spesiaal vir

die Revue gekomponeer. Wie sou ooit kon raai dat die gesogte “Afrikaners is plesierig” so afgestof kon word en met soveel entoe-siasme en genot

vertolk kon word! Hierdie item, waaraan 167 seuns en dogters deelgeneem het, was ongetwyfeld ‘n groot sukses!

Elke item was uniek en kreatief en het ongelooflik baie energie uitgestraal!

Danté en Tristan Nortjé is kranige fietsryers wat baie goed vaar by die onderskeie fietswedrenne waaraan hul deelneem.

In die toekoms sal ons beslis nog baie van hierdie twee broers in die fietsry-wêreld hoor!

Die Gr. 4’s het elke oomblik op die verhoog geniet en ‘n wye verskeidenheid van bewegings gedoen om “Sprokie Superman” aan die gehoor oor te dra.

Die Gr. 5-leerders het hul gate uit geniet om die skoollewe en vakansie uit te beeld.

Die Gr. 6-leerders se entoesiastiese aanbieding van Sneakers en bootse was ‘n groot treffer. Bewegings en danse is met oorgawe uitgevoer.

Me. Gréta Benadé het die treffende lied “Hier en Nou” spesiaal vir die Revue gekomponeer. A.l.n.r. Danielle Nothnagel, Lisa Duvenage, Me-Gann Bruwer, Mia Bester, Anna-Mart Ferreira, Cari Agenbag, Jannike du Toit, Inneke Theron, Kaylen Grogler, Lize-Mari Colyn, Margaret-Rose Marais en Stiaan du Preez. Hierdie leerders het hierdie pragtige lief met oorgawe gesing.

We are a school that chooses to focus on creating the best opportunities for learnersin academics, sport and culture. We inspireand encourage learners to pursue their dreamsand ambitions, to equip them to ultimately fulfil their roles in society as responsible contributing adults.

Academic Education. Glenwood House School is a private school which offers an excellent education from Gr 000 to Gr 12.

We are proudly associated with the Independent Examination Board which has an exceptional track record in SA. We offer our Gr 12 learners an IEB matric or exit exam—a qualification which is held in high esteem by universities both in South Africa and abroad. The IEB is one of only two accredited examination boards in SA.

The IEB advocates critical and creative thinking: “HOWto THINK and not WHAT to THINK”. It encourages pupils to be analytical, reflective and proactive - how to critically engage; not what to say. Our syllabus has been expanded to lead learners to develop critical thinking. We offer International Benchmarking Tests in Maths and English as part of our continuous evaluation of learners. The IEB forms the foundation on which our learners graduate with a qualification which truly equips them for life and the rigours of tertiary education. We have achieved a 100% pass rate for the past 7 years. Last year we achieved 89 distinctions, an average of 1.89 per matric.

Our Pre-Preparatory school, Little Glens, focuses on school readiness and development of cognitive (particularly reading and mathematics) and non-cognitive skills. Non-cognitive skills, such as attention, effort, initiative and behaviour are a very important part of our programme. At Little Glens we use sport, arts and culture to contribute to the development of learners.

All our classes are limited to 25 learners per

class.Sport. We believe physical activity can help us

lead healthier lives - a fit and healthy body houses a fit and healthy mind. Sport at Glenwood House helps learners to identify with the school and develop a sense of belonging. Team participation makes socialisation easier and helps to develop a culture of sharing and being there for one another. We offer a wide variety of sports activities and this year have added water-polo to the menu.

Arts and Culture. We believe it is important to have balance in your life and we encourage our learners to become involved in arts and culture as receptive and creative participants. It assists in cognitive development, educational attainment and stimulates creativity.

We believe that social responsibility is essential to make our world a better place for everyone.

ambitions, to equip them to ultimately fulfil their roles in society as responsible contributing adults.

Academic Education. Glenwood House School is a private school which offers an excellent education from Gr 000 to Gr 12.

We are proudly associated with the Independent Examination Board which has an exceptional track record in SA. We offer our Gr 12 learners an IEB matric or exit exam—a qualification which is held in high esteem by universities both in South Africa and abroad. The IEB is one of only two accredited examination boards in SA.

The IEB advocates critical and creative thinking: “HOWto THINK and not WHAT to THINK”. It encourages pupils to be analytical, reflective and proactive - how to critically engage; not what to say. Our syllabus has been expanded to lead learners to develop critical thinking. We offer International Benchmarking Tests in Maths and English as part of our continuous evaluation of learners. The IEB forms the foundation on which our learners graduate with a qualification which truly equips them for life and the rigours of tertiary education. We have achieved a 100% pass rate for the past 7 years. Last year we achieved 89 distinctions, an average of 1.89 per matric.

Our Pre-Preparatory school, Little Glens, focuses on school readiness and development of cognitive (particularly reading and mathematics) and non-cognitive skills. Non-cognitive skills, such as attention, effort, initiative and behaviour are a very important part of our

programme. At Little Glens we use sport, arts and culture to contribute to the development of learners.

All our classes are limited to 25 learners per class.

Sport. We believe physical activity can help us lead healthier lives - a fit and healthy body houses a fit and healthy mind. Sport at Glenwood House helps learners to identify with the school and develop a sense of belonging. Team participation makes socialisation easier and helps to develop a culture of sharing and being there for one another. We offer a wide variety of sports activities and this year have added water-polo to the menu.

Arts and Culture. We believe it is important to have balance in your life and we encourage our learners to become involved in arts and culture as receptive and creative participants. It assists in cognitive development, educational attainment and stimulates creativity.

We believe that social responsibility is essential to make our world a better place for everyone. Our programmes focus on the environment, wild life and people and includes our wetland work, our recycling programme as well as the Leopard Project, Arbour Day tree planting, beach clean ups, penguin sanctuary support, rhino conservation and life science fieldwork excursions.
