Rustenburg Times
For talented Grade 12 Rustenburg Girls’ High School pianist Yohan Chun, the past week has been undoubtedly one of the most challenging, yet rewarding weeks of her young life. On Tuesday 28 August, 2012, she stepped on stage at the Hugo Lambrechts Auditorium in Parow to compete in the 22nd Johann Vos Pi-ano Competition. She won the senior section of the competition playing a Scarlatti Sonata and a dazzling Al-legro de Concierto by the Spanish composer Granados. Of the 3 finalists she was the only girl and won a prize of R3000. The Johann Vos Piano Competition takes place over two rounds with three sections – Piccolo (Grade 6-7), Jun-ior (Grade 8-10) and Senior (Grade 11-12). On Saturday 1 September, 2012, she com-peted again in the prestigious Pieter Kooij Mu-sic Competition held in the beautiful Welge-
meend Salon at Jan van Riebeeck Hoërskool in Cape Town. Yohan was again on top form as she won the first prize of R2500, beating 10 performers in the final round. The first round of the competition saw fifty tal-ented high school musicians deliver perform-ances of the highest standard. Another Rusten-burg Grade 12 pupil, Gladys Kisela, taught by Ms Robyn Jepson, was also one of the 10 final-ists on saxophone. Yohan is taught by Ms Judith Dernier, a senior music teacher at Rustenburg Girls’ High School. Ms Dernier describes Yohan as an ex-tremely hard working, yet humble student, with exceptional talent. She participated in both these competitions in the middle of her Grade 12 Preliminary examinations. Yohan intends furthering her studies in Music at the University of Cape Town next year.

Afrikaans Senior Olympiad 2012 On Tuesday, the 15th of May 20 Rustenburg Girls wrote the Senior Afrikaans Olympiad. It was RGHS’s first year to take part in the Olym-piad and we achieved excellent results with 4 of our participants placing in the Top 20 for the Western Cape. Nicola Cilliers (D3) scored 89% and placed 2nd overall in the province followed by Petruné Beattie (E1), Robyn Paterson (D5) and Lauren Denny (D5). The Olympiad is a very beneficial experience and we encourage girls to partici-pate next year. Robyn Paterson

General Information
All Grade 9 learners will have to write two sets of standardised ENGLISH and MATHMATICS tests over the next two months: The Annual National Assessments (ANA) will be written later this month and the Western Cape Educa-tion Department (WCED) diagnostic/systemic testing is scheduled for October. These tests will not be used be used for pro-motion purposes at the end of the year. They have been set so that the Education Depart-ment can measure learners’ progress and whether they have reached the expected levels in literacy and numeracy. This will assist the Department in establishing where it is necessary to intervene if a particular class or school does not perform to the national levels. The results can also serve as a guide to whether your child needs any assistance in a particular area or not. Learners cannot really prepare for these tests as such, but their subject teachers will give them some idea of what kinds of questions to expect.
We have been notified that testing for our Grade 9 learners will take place as follows: 19 September English ANA 21 September Mathematics ANA (Calculators may be used) 12 October WCED Systemic Tests English and Mathematics
Please note that ALL LEARNERS
are expected to be present in order to be tested on these days.
As these are ordinary school days, teaching will resume immediately after the assessments have been completed, so learners must ensure that they have the relevant books with them.
CIVVIES DAY : Friday 21 September We will be having a civvies day to raise money for our end-of-year thank-you gifts for our support staff. This team works hard throughout the year to ensure that our building and grounds are cleaned and main-tained. This is our opportunity, as a school commu-nity, to show our appreciation to them for what they do for us throughout the year. Your support of this civvies day, at a cost of R10-00 per learner, would be greatly appreciated.

Success for Malika Malika Omar, currently living and working in Dubai, has recently received another musical acco-lade. She writes as follows: It is with great honour that I announce that I have been included in Time Out Dubai's (Time Out being awarded PPA International Consumer Magazine of the Year 2010 and 2011) list of the United Arab Emirates' Best-Selling Acts Ever. This is the second accolade I've been surprised with in a number of months (the first being in the Top 10 of the Region's Hottest Talents by The Na-tional newspaper). Each one of you has made an impact on me per-sonally or professionally and I thank you for you sin-cere encouragement. It is only due to your good wishes that I have reached these surreal career milestones. My wish is that I can continue to make great mu-sic, by exploring other genres and developing as an artist and businesswoman; as well as do more char-ity-driven projects such as 'New Hope' in aid of the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (www.cdbaby.com/malikao). Please check out the online link of the Time Out list where I'm truly humbled to be amongst the region's most talented musicians: http://www.timeoutdubai.com/gallery/34328-10-best-selling-uae-acts-ever?image=5.

Reunion of Rustenburg Actresses Four recipients of Rustenburg’s Alston le Roux Drama Cup met at the “BUGGED!” drama showcase on the evening of 22 Au-gust. They were (from left): Ms Gabriella Pinto (2005, 2007), Ms Meghan Smith (2009), Ms Hannah MacMillan (2011) and Ms Carey Wallace (2000). It was very spe-cial to have these Rustenburg Old Girls, all who were recognised for their service to the theatrical genre in various years, to-gether at an event celebrating the success of the Dramatic Arts department. Ms Gabriella Pinto, the only double winner of the cup since its donation in 1998, has since gone on to graduate with a degree in Theatre and Performance from the Univer-sity of Cape Town. She served as the guest speaker for “BUGGED!” and, in her address, highlighted to the audience the value which the performing arts holds in modern society. Ms Meghan Smith, who is studying archi-tecture at the UCT, has used her own skills as a stage performer to mentor many of the Grade 12 aspiring actresses. Ms Han-nah MacMillan is currently in her first year at UCT and, in July, achieved the highest class result in her Drama Theory course. Ms Carey Wallace is a qualified drama teacher at the Cape Academy of Perform-ing Arts. She will be assisting with Rusten-burg’s major production, “The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie,” planned for 2013.

PRESIDENT’S AWARD
Congratulations to Hyun-Joo Park
in Grade 12, who has attained her Bronze level of the President’s Award.
Theatre and spectacle came to the Kemp Hall on the evening of 22 August when the Dramatic Arts department staged, for the first time, a “BUGGED!” drama showcase. The delighted audience enjoyed three short productions on the night:
“Miss Conception” (Grade 12 Dramatic Arts. Theme: Babies)
“Soldier On” (Grade 12 Dramatic Arts. Theme: War)
“Bride’s Head, Revisited” (National Drama Winners)
Old Girl, Ms Gabriella Pinto (E 2007), offici-ated as guest speaker and welcomed the audi-ence by outlining what she has gained through her own tertiary studies in drama. Gabriella cur-rently holds a B.A. degree in Theatre and Per-formance from the University of Cape Town. For the two Matric casts this was an opportu-nity to present their original, theme programmes which will be formally assessed by the Curricu-lum Advisor and visiting adjudicators on 9 Octo-ber. Their parents have watched as these shows have grown organically over the past two years. Scenes have been added and amended in a continual process of revision. The final
products were both compelling and thought-provoking. Rustenburg’s annual submission to the Na-tional Girls Schools’ Festival has, for the past five years, been presented to a Cape Town au-dience at the Bishops Play Festival. The unex-pected cancellation of this fundraising event created an opportunity for Rustenburg ac-tresses to perform at Rustenburg. “Bride’s Head, Revisited” not only won the national com-petition, but also received 7 awards. The “BUGGED!” programme formally an-nounced that the school will be staging a major dramatic production in 2013. The script, which has been selected, is “The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.” The first round of auditions for “Miss Brodie” have been scheduled for Sunday, 9 August in the Drama Room. “The Prime of Miss Jean Bro-die” will not be new to the Kemp Hall stage. The very same production was presented by Rus-tenburg High School for Girls in 1996.

Mathematics in Grade 8 moves from Arithme-tic to Algebra. Algebra is generalised Arithmetic and it deals with abstract concepts using x and y. This is quite a jump for some learners. The curriculum has been well planned so that most learners will be able to master it in the time allotted. Some learners take longer to grasp concepts and these learners may need extra help. Extra help is available for those that really struggle. Rustenburg invites these learners to participate in an extra class, but the numbers are limited and attendance is compulsory. Peer tutoring from older learners is also available. Some parents do prefer outside lessons. The Mathematics teachers are always available to answer questions.
Mathematics is like sport or music. The more you practise the better you become. But you do need to practise every day. This is more than just your homework. Mathematics is such an emotional subject that usually the learner does the homework for the subjects that she likes first. Mathematics is left for last and by that time it is easier to say: “I don’t understand”. At Rustenburg we expect the learners to be responsible for their own learning. She should be keen to learn and be attentive in class. All the Mathematics teachers are willing to give extra work for extra practice.
“All Maths is interesting. You just have to work harder at
some of it.” Paul Scott: retiring editor of the Australian Mathematics Teacher
journal.
Overheard in the parking lot… “Why does my daughter in Grade 8 need to have extra Maths lessons?”

Music Department News
From the conductor, Brandon Phillips How could I ever forget the performances we had? Yes it will die with me. I felt that the young
musicians and I created a stronger bond each time we rehearsed. And thinking back to the per-formances, I remember when the choir started singing the first piece. My eyes opened and I got
such a shock. The choir and orchestra jumped to such a great level compared to the final re-hearsal. And then and there I knew that the musicians were going to be magical. They gave their
everything from beginning to end. And I thank them for it.
