4 FOOD

Compiled by Jenny Morris

The inspiration for making chocolate Pavlova (which is, in essence, what this gâteau is), came from dear friend and wonderful cook Stephanie Pattinson, whom I regard as a second mom. It’s a really special dessert: meringue stacked high with layers of cream and melted chocolate, and sprinkled with cherries. True decadence, and definitely worth the effort.

For the chocolate meringue• 8 egg whites• pinch of salt• 450g castor sugar• 10ml vanilla extract• 20ml white vinegar• 40ml corn flour, sifted• 30ml cocoa powder, sifted

For the layers• 180g good quality dark chocolate• 200ml cream (to melt with chocolate)*• 10ml vanilla extract or seed scrapings

of 1 vanilla pod• 300ml cream, whipped until just stiff*• fresh cherries or strawberries for

garnishing• grated chocolate for garnishing

(optional)*this recipe uses 500ml cream in total

To make the meringuePreheat the oven to 140˚C. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.

Whisk the egg whites and salt until just stiff. Gradually mix in the castor sugar, one spoon at a time. Whisk the mixture until glossy and thick.

Use a metal spoon to fold in the vanilla, vinegar, corn flour and cocoa powder lightly but thoroughly.

Spoon the meringue mixture on to the prepared baking sheet. Make four circles, each with a 20cm diameter, with fairly thick bases and raised edges.

Bake for one hour then turn off the heat. Leave the meringue in the oven until completely cold (preferably overnight).

To make the fillingPlace the chocolate and 200ml cream in a double-boiler and stir over low heat until the chocolate is just melted. Leave to cool completely.

Stir the vanilla into the 300ml whipped cream.

Place a meringue disc on a serving platter, spread with a quarter of the chocolate mixture followed by a quarter of the whipped cream. Top with another meringue disc and repeat three more times. Garnish the final layer of chocolate and cream with fresh fruit and the optional grated chocolate.

Coffee and hazelnut alternativeOmit the cocoa powder from the

meringue recipe and add 20ml instant espresso coffee powder to the mixture instead. Once the meringue discs are baked, layer them with whipped cream and caramel-dipped hazelnuts.

Note: For one large Pavlova, halve the ingredients for the chocolate meringue. Top with the melted chocolate and cream (optional).

YOU’LL NEED: Thick pieces of woodSaw and hammerCutting tongsPanel pin nails

WHAT TO DO: • Start by selecting a few

different pieces of wood.• If the stumps are uneven,

use the saw to resize them – and to make sure they

don’t fall over.• Hammer a nail into the

piece of wood until there is approximately 1.5cm sticking out. This will be used to hold the candle.

• Once the nail has been secured, use the cutting tongs to remove the head.

• You can also hammer nails into the side of the piece of wood to add a decorative

element. I made some birds from modelling clay.

• Be careful when placing the candle on to the exposed nail, as using too much force might cause the candle to split. To avoid this, warm the nail with a lighter before trying to position the candle.

DIY CANDLE STICKSGo green for the month of love and repurpose old pieces of wood into candle sticks.

ONS MENEER VERJAAR!Ons skoolhoof, Mnr. Borcherds het Donderdag, 12 Februarie sy verjaarsdag gevier. Ons het hom aangetrek soos ‘n renjaer en ontvoer in ‘n stampkar. Dit was tot groot vermaak vir die kinders toe hy self ‘n draai of twee op die sportgronde moes maak in hierdie vinnige kar! Ons wens vir Meneer ‘n baie mooi lewensjaar toe vol avontuurlustige ritte!

PRESTIGE-ATLETIEK-BYEENKOMS 2015WNPS het op Dinsdag, 10 Februarie ons Prestige-Atletiekbyeenkoms gehou. Wat ‘n heerlike byeenkoms onder spreiligte met gesonde kompetisie en kameraadskap teen ons buurskole: Worcester-Oos, Stellenbosch, Overberg en De Villiersgraaf.

SPESIALE KUIERGAS!Oom Kevin de Villiers was in 1958 in Sub-A in WNPS. Hy het weer by ons kom kuier en gekyk of hy nog in die klein bankies pas. Die Juffrou wat vir hom klasgegee het, leef nogsteeds en is al oor die 100 jaar oud. Dankie vir die spesiale besoek, oom Kevin!

KYK AL ONS LINGE!Ons het hierdie jaar omtrent ‘n groot gros tweelinge in ons skool,asook twee pare drielinge. Hier is al die maatjies saam en die foto spreek van baie liefde!

Heel voor is die Brits-drieling, Dané, Jaco en Anke. In die tweede ry van links is die Terblanche-drieling, Emile, Jacques en Gustav.

Mari Möller en André Viljoen het aan die einde van verlede jaar op Oudtshoorn gaan deelneem aan ‘n tennistoernooi waar hulle Boland Platteland verteenwoordig het.

Bertus Roux, Christine van der Merwe en Lu-Ann Viljoen is in die Boland Tweekampspan opgeneem.Een van die hoogtepunte op die Landsdiens se

kalender is die waatlemoenfees. Die kinders het dit omtrent geniet – om te eet en dan

natuurlik die groot gesmeerdery na die tyd! Na afloop van die fees word daar dan ook ‘n Mnr en Me Taai aangewys.

YOU SAID WHAT!?You know the scene: You’re out with your gal pals and over strides Mr. Sleaze Ball and one of his infamous pickup lines. Seriously?Good pickup lines are hard to come by, and you have to give the guy credit for making the first move, but here are four lines that should be avoided.

• “I don’t know if you know this, but you look a lot like my next girlfriend.”• “You smell like trash. May I take you out?”• “I don’t have a girlfriend, but I do know a woman who’d be mad at me for saying

that.”• Did you fart? Because you just blew me away!”

6 NEW PHONES YOU SHOULD BE MOST EXCITED ABOUT IN 2015We’re big fans of 2014’s Samsung Galaxy S5, the LG G3, the Sony Xperia Z3 and the iPhone 6, but we’re even more impressed by what’s to come this year. Here we reveal the 6 smartphones to be most excited about in 2015.

1. SAMSUNG GALAXY S6If you’re a Samsung fan but would like a phone rather than a phablet, the S6 will be just what you’re looking for. We should see this phone unveiled at a Samsung Unpacked event on 1 March 2015.

2. SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 MINIThe Samsung Galaxy S6 mini is likely to arrive a few months after the standard Samsung Galaxy S6 – perhaps late June or early August – and will be a more compact version of its big brother, with a slightly slimmed-down spec.

3. SAMSUNG GALAXY A7Samsung has confirmed its Galaxy A7, a gorgeous phablet with a 6.3mm unibody metal chassis, a 5.5in Super AMOLED screen and 64-bit-octa-core processor. The A7 is not yet for sale, but will come

in both single and dual-sim variants.

4. HTC ONE M9We are massive fans of the HTC One M8, which means we just can’t wait for a better version of this phone. The HTC One M9 is expected to follow the HTC Desire Eye with a super-selfie 13MP front camera and 20MP rear camera.

5. HTC ONE M9 PLUS / PRIME / ULTRAWe’ll most likely have to wait until September to get our hands on this version. If the rumours are true, the HTC One M9 Ultra / Plus will pack a 2.3 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor and 3GB

RAM. It will also feature a fingerprint scanner.

6. SONY XPERIA Z4Sony updates its flagship handsets every six months, so with the Sony Xperia Z3 having been released in September 2014, we can expect the Xperia Z4 in March at IFA (2 to 5 March 2015). There is speculation that the Sony Xperia Z4 will tie in with the new James Bond movie, with actor Daniel Craig and director Sam Mendes expected to be involved in the design.

INTERKOSHUISATLETIEK – KOSHUIS VS DORP Die jaarlikse Interkoshuisatletiekbyeenkoms het vir groot opwinding gesorg. Met ons gebruiklik optog deur die dorp, het die Dorpleerders hierdie jaar die beker ingepalm. Op die baan was dit egter ‘n ander storie en die Koshuise tree as die algehele wenners uit die stryd.

DENIM DRESS-UP

Whether you’re curvy or skinny, now is the time to wear denim. It remains one of those classic pieces meant to be owned by everyone, so be daring and

have some fun with your denim!

Denim on denimThis trend is hugely fashionable this summer, so play around with different tones and textures. For a chic look, go for white jeans and a chambray shirt. If you want to make a statement, go for darker bottoms and a lighter denim top.

Denim skirtThe skirt has had a revival and is back in fashion this season. Look out for something with a slit up the leg or buttons in front. Wear your skirt with a plain tee tucked into it, and add a belt for a more feminine look.

Ripped jeansThis look has been with us for a while. Look out for a more subtle ripped effect and wear these jeans with a printed tee or feminine top for a chic look.

Denim waistcoatWearing a waistcoat is an easy way to jazz up an outfit. Wear your waistcoat with a flowing dress for a bohemian feel, or pair it with shorts and a basic top.

Denim shirtThis is an essential wardrobe item. Because it’s so versatile, you can wear it with almost anything in your wardrobe.

Denim play suits or dungareesDungarees are a great alternative to the usual shorts. You can wear them

with flats and a statement necklace for a more modern look.

BESOEK DIE TWO OCEANS AKWARIUM DIE LEESHOEKIE

ARBEIDSTERAPIE PROGRAM

SEWE LEERDERS GESEËN MET... TOP-PRESTEERDER

Die Intermediêre Fase en Grondslagfase het op 12 Februarie ‘n besoek aan die Two Oceans Akwarium in Kaapstad gebring. Seelewe vorm deel van die kurruikulum vir altwee hierdie fases, en om dit te met hulle oë te aanskou, was ‘n ongelooflike ondervinding vir die leerders.

Die leeshoekie in die skoolbiblioteek van De la Bat is opgegradeer met ‘n grootskerm televisie en rekenaar, nuwe oortreksels en kussings vir die

bank en ‘n “e-reader”. Die veranderine is moontlik gemaak deur ‘n skenking vn AVBOB.

Die KWOD het die Arbeidsterapie Program aan die begin van die jaar aan al die onderwysers van kleuerskole voorgelê. Die program is opgestel deur die IO-span Arbeidsterapeute en Distrikterapeut. Die program is reeds verlede jaar by sommige skole begin doen. Die De la Bat Kleuterskool het vanjaar die program geïimplimenteer en onder leiding van die arbeidsterapeut, Me. Antoinette Coetzee hoop die onderwysers om ‘n positiewe verskil in die kleuters se lewens te maak.

Mev Elma Blokdyk het namens haar seun en skoondogter, Morné en Chantelle Blokdyk sowel as Me Ilze en Liza Fritz, sewe leerders geseën met klere, skoene, benodighede en speelgoed. Namens die De la Batskool betuig die leerders hulle dank en waardering.

Jessica Groenewald is tydens ‘n gala geleentheid van die KWOD aangewys as die Matriek top-presteerder van De la Batskool. Dit is die vyfde aaneenvolgende jaar dat De la Batskool ‘n 100 % slaagsyfer handhaaf in die Senior Sertifikaat eksamen.

REKORDS SPAT TYDENS ONS KLEURE-ATLETIEKMet groot opgewondenheid het Laerskool Montagu se atlete aan hierdie jaar se Kleure-atletiek deelgeneem. Beide die Rooi- en die Groenspan het getrou atletiek geoefen, asook nuwe liedjies aangeleer

onder leiding van hulle dirigente. Tydens die byeenkoms is sewe rekords gebreek. Die Rooispan het hierdie jaar met die spanbeker, sowel as die geesbeker weggestap.

Op die foto verskyn ons top presteerders by die kleure-atletiek: v.l.n.r. Roann Joubert (Victor Ludorum), Morné-John Roos (Beste Grondslagfase atleet), Ankia Ellis (Victrix Ludorum), Anene Rahl (Junior Victrix Ludorum), Tia Esterhuyse (Beste prestasie) en Juhan Venter (Junior Victor Ludorum).

Die Rooispan ontvang trots die span- en geesbeker.

Baan- en velditems het gesorg vir baie spannende oomblikke.

ATLETE LEWER PUIK PRESTASIESTydens die Langeberg-atletiekbyeenkoms het ons atlete ook puik presteer. Veertig atlete het deurgedring na die Noord-Boland byeenkoms.

Die Monties het op 13 Februarie baie pret gehad met Valentynsdag. Kaartjies is uitgedeel en leerders kon rooi en wit aantrek. Hierdie jaar het leerders ook ‘n R5 donasie gegee, wat die Monties aan ‘n kinderhuis gaan skenk.
