5B PROCRASTINATION STATION (27 JULY 26)
What is a simple task that you have been procrastinating? and How long have you been procrastinating doing it? How long will it realistically take? It’s 10 years of the movie La La Land this year. At the time of its release, Ryan Gosling was teased for his strangely flat hand on the iconic poster. 10 years on and Lionsgate has finally rereleased the poster in time afor its 10 the anniversary re-release. It was probably quite a quick fix. Why did they wait so long to do this?
5B PHONE FREE TIME (27 JULY 26)
Mike V chats about being able to be off his phone this past week. Sweden is officially trading screens and tablets for physical books and handwriting to reverse a decline in reading skills. Once at the forefront of hyper-digitalized learning, Sweden is engineering a dramatic pivot back to the basics in its classrooms. Concerned that an overreliance on digital tablets and screens has eroded reading comprehension and foundational writing skills, Swedish education officials are investing heavily in traditional printed textbooks. The national strategy aims to phase out digital devices for children under the age of six entirely, following a drop in international reading assessment scores. Experts point out that while technology was championed to level the playing field, its unrestricted use has instead led to shorter attention spans and reduced retention among younger learners.

5B INTERVIEW - DEMI RAE SNYMAN - WHEN SPORTING AMBITION BECOMES UNHEALTHY PRESSURE (23 JULY 26)
School sport can be one of the best parts of growing up. It can teach confidence, discipline, teamwork and how to get back up after life absolutely cooks you on a random Tuesday. But for some young athletes, sport stops being something they love and starts becoming the thing their entire identity, future and self-worth seem to depend on. Between parents, coaches, schools, scholarships, selection and the pressure to become “the next big thing”, are we sometimes asking children to carry professional-level expectations before they have even finished growing up? +Joining us in studio is Registered Counsellor and Student Wellness Services Manager at Emeris, Demi Rae Snyman.
