With the theme 'A Healthy Environment –
the Future we Want – Act NOW for Climate
Justice', the Mukuvisi Woodlands Eco
Schools Challenge 2015 was an uplifting
and very successful all day event, held on
14 October at the Woodlands. Over 40
schools participated in the event which drew
a crowd exceeding 500, comprising school
children, university students, teachers,
Mukuvisi Woodlands Councillors and staff
and high level governmental, diplomatic
and NGO representatives.
Generously supported by the European
Union, with additional sponsorship from the
French Embassy which financed production
of 5000 booklets on Climate Change, plus
further donations
from Unicef, each
participating child at
the event received a

A very well attended event
Mukuvisi Woodlands Eco Schools Challenge 2015
The large scale event represented the culmination of the busy Eco Schools
Programme's year of activities and projects. This excellent experiential
environmental education programme was launched and has been run for
the past six years by the Mukuvisi Woodlands Environmental Education
Centre, in line with the global model by the same name. It is having an
excellent impact on environmental learning in all the schools who have
come aboard and the children undoubtedly have fun and enjoy themselves
while they learn. Full-time Eco Schools Programme Co-Ordinator Gibson
Nhokwara organised the event, was Master of Ceremonies throughout and
spoke very well at the prize-giving ceremony, as did Mukuvisi Woodlands
Association Chairman Simon Pitt and Vice Chairman Allain Chimanikire.
The busy morning saw all children actively engaged in the sit-down Primary
and Secondary Eco Schools Quizzes, plus rushing about in the Woodlands
hunting for the clues to answer environmental quiz questions. In the
process they explored the Woodlands widely, learnt about the environment,
and had fun navigating a Maze created by the Mukuvisi Woodlands team.
On display at the event were some very impressive works of art including
models, created by participating children as entries in the Eco Schools
Challenge, guided by the theme of this year's event. It was clear to see in
these artworks that the children fully grasped the most pressing
environmental issues of our day, plus the potentially devastating impact of
climate change to our futures if action is not taken now to contain this.
Attending VIPs were especially impressed by what they saw in this exhibition.
Scores in the hunt for environmental clues and answering of questions in the Woodlands, plus in the
sit-down quizzes, art and model competition, combined with a review of each school's performance as
an Eco School over the year including its environmental networking and outreach activities, together
informed final decisions on the overall Most Sustainable Schools in terms of the Programme and its
guiding principles. Winning Primary School was Highlands and winning Secondary School was
Chinhoyi High. Prizes, funded by the EU, included solar power kits for the winning schools. Many

was Chinhoyi High on environmental education in Zimbabwe. EU Head Mr Phillippe
van Damme's excellent speech focussed on the challenge of climate
change and the need to ensure that today's adults, and tomorrow's,
as represented by the school children present, had a tremendous
burden to tackle this proactively and urgently for the sake of now
and future generations.
Unveiled at the event was the winning logo, designed by Tawanda
Mhlanga of Chinhoyi University, for the upcoming
COP21 (Communities of Practice) event in Paris in
November. Representatives from 195 countries will
there meet to discuss and formulate the United
Nations Framework on

Power Cuts
By Jacqueline Collins
Photos by Hannah Cohen
“We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day, night is
coming, when no one can work.” John Chapter 9. Verse 4.
I have got to the stage where I actually quite like power cuts and load
shedding. After all at least when you go to the loo in the middle of the
night you don't end up bumping into things. Your smart phone can be
nicely charging away all night ready for you to check out Facebook with
your morning cup of tea. The fridge keeps everything frozen, it is
amazing really that it does not really have to be on all day. The electric
gate works smoothly and the bell rings. Best of all there is hot water for
a shower or bath, which really sets you up for the day. Really of course,
one should just try to adapt, set the alarm to cook that cake for a friend's
birthday, after all, it is not the end of the world to wake up at 4 o'clock in
the morning, especially in the summer. In fact, these days sometimes I
think that it is probably best to not even try to bake and stress yourself
Zesa Skit
out since luckily there are lots of things you can just buy in the shops.
Anyway, compared to a FAULT, power cuts are very bearable. There is nothing worse when the power goes off completely for a few days
in a row and gradually the generator starts to sound more and more laboured and the inverter packs up. You have to start making a
plan for everything, like putting the gate on manual and then every time you go out you have to hope that
someone can hear you hooting so that they can unlock the padlock. By that stage you are forced to rely on
shouting because it is no use using the phone as all the batteries are flat.

There is nothing quite so grim as being completely off the grid, I hate waking up in the night to not even a

BOOK ON GEMSTONES
This book is primarily aimed at influencing future
geologists and is fairly comprehensive about gems that
are found in Zimbabwe and world-wide, with personal
interest stories included. If you are one of those people
who cannot walk down a path or river bed without
collecting a handful of pebbles, or pick up a piece of
rough rock and immerse it in water to see the lovely
bright patterns and colours, then this book is for YOU.
The book is a handy 22x16x1.5cm size, weighing only
600g – not too heavy for your back packs while bush
walking/mountain climbing. A perfect gift. A family
colouring/puzzle book is also available.
Available from leading bookstores or please phone

My daughter, Jasmine has been practising for her patisserie examination
coming up soon, which has unfortunately led to me gaining weight, since I
find it hard to resist testing out her recipes. However, this recipe is one of
the more healthy ones, with not too much sugar. It is an ideal dessert to
have during this hot weather as it is a very cool and light pudding. It can
actually be cooked on top of a stove and then put in the freezer part of the
fridge to set and it works even if the power has been off for a short time.
Jasmine loves to decorate all her sweet dishes with edible flowers such as
violas and borage flowers, which you can buy in small plastic cartons at
Food Lover's Market in Greendale. They give cakes a very festive look and
last for a week or more in the fridge.
For many years I have been hoarding little plastic jelly moulds that I used
to use for the children's parties. At the time my children were young, it was
kind of the fashion to serve jelly in halves of oranges, but I never seemed
to manage this time consuming operation. Luckily I finally found these
small jelly moulds which were a fantastic hassle free option and then I
used them for many birthday parties once I had them. So it was quite fun
to find a use for them again after all these years.
Vanilla Panacotta goes beautifully with blueberry coulis which is a stunning
purple colour. Admittedly this is my third recipe in a row for blueberries
but I do love to use ingredients that are in season. Also blueberries are
apparently very good for you and packed with antioxidants. This blueberry sauce is also wonderful with ice cream, and makes a
change from the ubiquitous chocolate sauce. Strawberries can also be used in the same way and substituted for the blueberries.

Restaurant Guide
The Story of Tony's Coffee Shop in Bvumba
Rosie Mitchell
Anyone who goes to the Bvumba simply has to visit Tony's
famous award winning Coffee Shop, there to enjoy the most
spectacular teas, coffees and cakes you'll ever sample, in the
most enchanting surroundings. Most importantly though, is the
experience as a whole, and meeting Tony, who will rhapsodise
upon the merits and special characteristics of each lovingly
prepared offering on the menu.
Tony has recently written and launched a beautiful book about
the personal journey of self-discovery and transformation which
is encompassed within the history of this delightful place to
stop, linger and enjoy.
'My Heart on my Sleeve'
is a disarmingly candid
account of the 24 years
which brought the much
loved Coffee Shop
through various incarnations and homes to where it, and
Tony is, spiritually and emotionally, today. He reveals his
innermost thoughts and feelings, detailing joys, traumas,
trials and tribulations along the way. The book also contains
many of the deliciously decadent recipes used in the coffee
shop, and is beautifully illustrated with colour photos. Tony
and his Coffee Shop already enjoy quite a following. After
reading this book, you will be even fonder of this well-known
colourful character!
Diarise the Old Mutual Vumba Mountain Run on 14
November, plan a lovely getaway around it, and be sure to
go and enjoy Tony's for yourself! This is a popular, scenic Half
Tony Robinson's Book ‘My Heart on My Sleeve’ Marathon and 10km Fun Run.

Your road map to good health and green living
Help yourself to Health - with The Cheeseman
Eat less sugar and starch, move more, say YES to full fat dairy foods
Slice of Life has since its launch in 2012 had a strong focus on
healthy eating and living - as has The Cheeseman’s publicity
generally, since its very early days. Back in the mid-1990s when
The Cheeseman was established, our press, publicity and
advertising drew attention to the many health benefits of dairy
foods, as well as highlighting the then alternative point of view,
that animal fats (and hence the fats in dairy foods) were not the
evil they were made out to be, and that instead, the foods to
avoid were refined carbohydrates, especially, sugar.
In the past couple of years, we have been fully vindicated in
that view, which has at last become mainstream accepted
wisdom - so we’re proud to have been somewhat pioneering in
going against the grain, even before vast quantities of relevant
research were ‘rediscovered’ or analysed more critically, plus
plenty of new studies were released, proving unequivocally that
it’s not the fat or the cholesterol you eat that makes you gain
unwanted weight or threatens your cardiovascular health - it’s
the sugar (and all other refined, processed carbs).
Of course there are still some traditionalists who cling to the
old thinking, in spite of all the evidence to the contrary. But
many people are reading up on the current research and taking
this knowledge on board. Low carb high fat regimes are all the
rage, with full fat dairy foods rightly getting a good rap as very
healthy foods! Yes, tuck into all those fabulous cheeses, butter,
Greek yoghurt and fresh cream - IT’S ALL GOOD!
But no eating plan will improve your health, or trim your
waistline (if that is what you want to do) without other lifestyle
adjustments, because we evolved, as a species, to move around
quite a bit, not sit all day as many of us through our professions
find ourselves compelled to do. Some regular moving about, is
required for optimal health and weight control, and preferably,
doing something you actually enjoy!
Teaming up with a friend or family member or joining a club, is
a good way to achieve this, as the commitments to regular
sessions of whatever moving about rocks your boat, helps with
motivation and turns the whole exercise into something social
and pleasurable. Good old fashioned brisk walking fits the bill
perfectly and choosing somewhere scenic to do it makes it a lot
more interesting.
Choose the Sunday morning walk (or run or cycle)
in Mukuvisi Woodlands; join one of the Mountain
Club’s Saturday afternoon walks (or an all day
Sunday one if feeling really energetic). Join
Run/Walk for Life and make some new friends
while you get fitter. Try yoga or pilates or Zumba lots of classes are available. Team up with the
mountain biking enthusiasts for a social ride - they
cycle through some awesome scenery, none of it
far from town. Give triathlon a try; make up a
team for a Mini - beginners are always welcome!
Whatever you choose, to get in the groove to move
for the sake of your health, it needs to be fun then you’ll keep at it, and it will soon get easier!
Enjoy Feta in

It's the time of
year for sunny
salad days. What
could be more
cooling,
refreshing or delicious than a classic Greek Salad containing
that all important ingredient - Feta Cheese? Opt for local
Kefalos or
Clavelshay
Feta, or try
one of the
imported
brands like
Simonsberg or Lancewood.
Whichever you choose, feta is
simply perfect in any salad!

Coffee and
Health
Coffee drinking at this level is clearly associated in the
research with reduced risk of Type 2 diabetes, and
with reduced pace of physiological age-related
cognitive decline.
