Child (4) found abandoned in street A four-year-old boy, who may be suffering from a serious skin infection was found abandoned in Langabuya, Mbekweni on Tuesday afternoon. According to Mbekweni Police spokesperson, Sergeant Nceba Vanqa, police were informed about the child by educators from the Lungabuya Educare Centre who found him walking up and down in Bishop Crescent.
When asked his name, he told them he was called Kwekwe. Community members were asked if they knew the boy or his relatives but no one was able to identify him. Vanqa said the boy had a severe skin irritation over his body and face, and was taken to Paarl Hospital for medical treatment. According to a spokesperson for the Department of Health in the Cape Winelands, Jo-
Anne Otto, a patient matching the boy’s description was admitted to the hospital. She said he is recuperating and receiving treatment. A case of child neglect was registered with the police and the help of social services was called in. Anyone who knows the whereabouts of the child’s parents is requested to contact the Mbekweni detectives at 021 868 9900/26.
“Traditional healer” exposed
Paarl-Oos-polisiebeamptes het onlangs hierdie blou Toyota, wat vermoedelik by Dal Josafat-stasie gesteel is, in Robertsonstraat, Charleston Hill sonder sy wiele gevind. Die motor is deur die Paarl-polisie aangemeld as gesteel. Niemand is in die voorval in hegtenis geneem nie. Enigeen met inligting, bel ao. Alta Booyens: 021 877 5944.
A woman from Project 2, Mbekweni, is facing a charge of fraud after allegedly posing as a traditional healer. The suspect, who has not yet been arrested, aroused suspicion when three officials from a security company in town reported sick to their boss for the same period, namely 1 December 2014 to 5 February 2015. All three certificates of absence had been obtained from the suspect.
The owner of the security company called the Medical Board and the Traditional Healers Association to enquire about her accreditation. He found that the woman, who goes by the name of Dr. Nowelcome Sobutyu, was not registered with either body, and that her practitioner number was invalid. A case of fraud was opened and the police are investigating the matter.
Moordverdagte in aanhouding Die moordverdagte Masonwabe Dyantyana (20), wat tereg staan vir die moord op ’n tweemaande-oue babaseun, is steeds in aanhouding, nadat hy op 6 Februarie vlugtig in die Paarl-landdroshof verskyn het vir ’n borgtogaansoek. Na bewering het Dyantyana die baba, Maxwell Williams, op Saterdag 17 Januarie hard op die grond neergegooi waarna hy glo op hom gespring het. Maxwell was reeds dood toe die polisie op die toneel aangekom het.
Volgens Maxwell se tante, Sandra Williams (31), was die rede vir die treurspel onduidelikheid oor die vaderskap van Maxwell. Ooggetuies het glo gesien hoe Dyantyana die kind neergooi en op hom trap. Dyantyana het weggehardloop, maar is later deur Paarl-Oos-polisiebeamptes in die omgewing aangekeer. Dyantyana verskyn weer op Maandag 9 Maart in die Paarl-landdroshof vir ’n hofdatum vir ’n verhoor in die Hooggeregshof.
Die bekende karwasman, Niklaas Thomas, wat reeds ’n geruime tyd ’n karwasbesigheid bedryf uit ’n waentjie wat hy agter sy fiets sleep, het onlangs ’n splinternuwe fiets met ratte en ’n ligte waentjie ontvang om hom beter toe te rus vir die werk. Die skenking is deur François van der Werf van Easyskips gemaak. Niklaas sê die nuwe fiets en waentjie is baie geriefliker. “Ek trap nou die bult sit-sit uit,” skerts hy, “dit is ’n groot verligting.”
The Paarl West Community Policing Forum (CPF) in partnership with the Paarl Police would like to inform the public of crime tendencies for the month of January. ) Residential burglaries: In the areas of Lemoenkloof, Groenvlei and Northern Paarl, incidents were reported in Reyneke, Egbert, Plein, Jan Steyn, Michael, Moll, Reitz, Williams, Du Plessis, Etna, Du Lot, Uitspanning, Bethel Streets and Main Road. In several instances entrance was gained by climbing in through open windows or opening open windows wider to gain access. In De Zoete Inval, Courtrai and Vrykyk, residential burglaries were reported in Upper Bosman, Chapelle, Joubert, Berea Streets and 1st Avenue. Thom, Breda, Salamiender, Dorp, Karlsen Crescent, Langenhoven, Muller and Distillery Streets in the Central Business District, Denneburg and Klein Parys areas were also targeted. The majority of the incidents occurred on a Thursday during the day. In the farming area of Simondium, Sonstraal, Paardeberg, Slent, Voorpaardeberg, Windmeul and R45 areas, residential burglaries occurred mostly on a Monday and a Thursday between 04:00 and 06:00. Five arrests were made. ) Business burglaries: Business burglaries mostly occurred on a Friday evening and were reported in Borsenburg, Alkmaar, Oosterland, Voorschoten, Van der Lingen, Waterkant, Lady Grey, Breda, Synagogue, Market, Triangle, Zuidmeer, Frater, Auret, Alleman, Concordia, Hospital, Langenhoven Avenue and Jan van Riebeeck Road. Entry was gained into premises by means of breaking windows, breaking locks and forcing open burglar bars. Two arrests were made. In the farming area, incidents were reported in the Vryguns, Voorpaarderg, Roggeland, Lustigan, Nuwedrift, Old Paarl Road, R45 and Simondium areas, and occurred mostly on a Thursday and a Friday before 08:00. One person was arrested. ) Theft out of/from motor vehicle: This still remains a concern for the Paarl Police. There is no fixed area in which vehicles are being broken into. A total of eight arrests were made, however, these arrests still have no impact on the total number of cases reported. Tools are being left visible and laptops are still being left under car seats. Clothing and other valuable items are also being left in the open. The Police requests that all valuable items are locked away before parking. ) Possession of stolen property: The Paarl Police made 18 arrests for the possession of stolen property. Some of the items retrieved could be linked to theft and burglary incidents. However, most items are not marked or photographs not available in case dockets. The public are urged to mark all valuable items, record serial numbers and take photographs. Another means of securing your valuables is by making use of the Data Dot system 0861 328 2368 or www.datadot.co.za for information. Each station has a Data Dot verification instrument which can be utilised.

Schools win battle in court DEVIDEAN MOSES The LK Zeeman and Bergrivier Primary Schools, together with another 12 schools in the Western Cape are overwhelmed with the final decision of the Western Cape Department of Education (WCED) not to close their schools. The former Minister of Education Minister Donald Grant, announced in 2012 that underperforming schools with small pupil numbers and multi-grade teaching classes would have to close their doors at the end of that year. A court battle, however, followed with first the Western Cape High Court putting the closures on hold when it was found that the minister’s decision was inadequate and irrational. Another court application ruled again for the department, where after the affected schools planned to take the case to the Constitutional Court. It was, however, this week decided by the affected parties to set aside the planned appeal as both parties have now decided to revisit the matter and start the process over again. Despite these battles, dedicated educators of LK Zeeman and Bergrivier Primary Schools have continued as per usual to further the education of the learners. But this is not the end of the line for this matter.
Education Minister, Debbie Schäfer, says that the department will look at the situation as a whole in the province and in the event that closure is recommended again, new notices will be published and representations may again be made. Futhermore, she continued that they had made this offer, despite the unanimous judgment of the Supreme Court of Appeal in their favour. “The amount of time that has elapsed since the decision to close the schools will be at least four years once the Constitutional Court process is finished. This may render the facts upon which the decision to close was initially taken potentially irrelevant. The future of the learners has remained and will remain uncertain pending the finalisation of the matter should this continue in the Constitutional Court. Even in the event that the Constitutional Court finds in our favour, which we believe they would, the fact that so many years have elapsed would in our view necessitate that we reassess the situation.” Myrna Williams, acting principal, said that they as staff of LK Zeeman are very glad about the fact that the matter has been withdrawn. “We can continue the education of our 275 learners without too much uncertainty.” On Thursday 12 February, LK Zeeman held a thanksgiving service at the school to celebrate their ‘victory’.
Here are the staff of LK Zeeman Primary School. From left are Majory Samuels, Dawn Williams, Elize Browne, Myrna Williams (acting principal), Charmaine Moosa, Edwin Standfliet (acting head of department), Juanita Jansen and Harvey Cupido.

Star Star Signs Signs CAPRICORN
22 December to 21 January
This is not a period when you feel like pushing your own interests or one in which you are especially energetic. Other people's concerns and needs receive more attention from you now, and you are more motivated to do something which serves others, perhaps a group you are affiliated with. Cooperating with others for some idealistic purpose is very satisfying for you at this time.
AQUARIUS
21 January To 20 February
You are very inclined to make rash decisions. With little forethought, you will suddenly decide to do something. Because the impatient, spontaneous, innovative quality of this astrological influence bursts forth in short spurts, you often surprise even yourself by your quick decisions and reactions to situations.
PISCES
20 February to 21 March
You tend to be very abrupt and inconsiderate of others. It's best for you not to try to cooperate or slow down your pace to suit other people too much. You need to follow your own rhythm. You are likely to actually act on some of the more unusual or "crazy" impulses you feel from time to time: you crave excitement.
ARIES
21 March to 21 April
A sudden accident, trauma, violent outburst, or fever are possibilities now. If you have been withholding any animosity, not taking what you need for yourself, or been in any sort of ongoing battle with another, the stress is likely to become unbearable. You also tend to force yourself unmercifully now, which will backfire. You might sustain injuries in a competitive situation or "burn out".
TAURUS
21 April to 21 May
Strong sexual feelings and romantic passions are stimulated now, and the urge to be with your love partner is compelling. If you are not currently in a relationship, you are likely to be bold and to make the first move toward someone you are attracted to. Artistic and creative expression is also favored now.
GEMINI
21 May to 22 June
You know just what you want right now and woe to anyone or anything that gets in your way! You are much more likely to become domineering, pushy, or inconsiderate of others now, so it is a good time for you to do what you need to do by yourself rather than with others. Accidents, mistakes made in haste, or ego conflicts may occur due to your impatience and willfulness.
CANCER
22 June to 23 July
Verbal battles, disputes, and heated debates are very likely at this time because you speak your mind without much forethought, tact, or consideration of consequences. Right now you will say the things you usually only think, especially to people you disagree with. Also, you are quite impatient and easily frustrated and are inclined to move about too quickly and abruptly, which can cause accidents.
LEO
23 Julie to 24 August
Significant changes and opportunities face you at this time but making the correct decision about what to do is not easy. One side of you is impatient to make some major changes. You are tired of the same old routine and life style. You want to break free and get things really moving. You feel there is much more to life, and you are not growing and living as fully as you ought to be.
VIRGO
24 August to 23 September
This is a time when it is difficult to stay within a budget or on a diet, as your tendency is to splurge on beautiful things and to enjoy yourself as much as possible. You want comfort and ease and have luxurious tastes. Quality is especially important to you right now. Also, you want to share whatever good fortune you have. You need company and happy fellowship.
LIBRA
23 September to 23 October
This is an excellent time to make decisions about your financial affairs, as your judgment is sound and reliable, though a bit conservative. Investing in beautiful things which are likely to increase in value over time (such as jewelry or fine art) is favored. You are not interested in fleeting excitement or frivolity now. Spending "quality time" with an old and trusted friend will make you happy.
SCORPIO
23 October to 23 November
What occurs now makes you more aware of what you need, feel, and want in your relationships. If you are unhappy in your personal life, this is brought out now, and you'll need to face what is causing your dissatisfaction. Differences in personal style, tastes, and ways of expressing affection may emerge.
SAGITTARIUS
23 November to 22 December
This is a time when it is difficult to stay within a budget or on a diet, as your tendency is to splurge on beautiful things and to enjoy yourself as much as possible. You want comfort and ease and have luxurious tastes. Quality is especially important to you right now. Also, you want to share whatever good fortune you have. You need company and happy fellowship.

Jy die entrepreneur: Die Eskom-faktor DAVID MALHERBE Eskom se onvermoë om genoegsame krag te lewer is deesdae op almal se lippe. Dit wat ons tans beleef, is die gevolg van ’n groot onderneming se gebrek aan strategiese uitbreiding en goeie bestuur vir die toenemende elektrisiteitsbehoeftes van ’n groeiende bevolking en ekonomie. Vir Eskom is die produksie van genoegsame elektrisiteit ’n interne faktor (waaroor hulle beheer kan uitoefen) en wat deur Eskom aangepak moet word. Dit is sake wat hulle na die beste van hul vermoë moet bestuur sodat dit die minste moontlike ontwrigting vir hul kliënte (ek en jy) veroorsaak. Vir my en jou wie se besighede afhanklik is van Eskom-krag, is dieselfde elektrisiteit ’n eksterne omgewingsinvloed waaroor

ons geen beheer het nie. As Eskom die krag afskakel, is al wat ons kan doen om die beste van ’n slegte saak te maak. Miskien het jou besigheid ’n kragopwekker en kan produksie tot ’n mate voortgaan. Die meeste van ons moet ons egter skik volgens die beskikbaarheid van elektrisiteit. Het jy as besigheidseienaar ’n plan hoe om jou besigheid se produksievermoë ten beste aan te pas by onvoorsiene kragonderbrekings? Dit is belangrik om onder dié omstandighede daagliks steeds die grootste moontlike produksie te lewer. Ongelukkig is dit so dat die kragonderbrekings noodwendig ’n invloed op besighede se produksiekapasiteit sal hê. In al die media word ons tans gewaarsku dat die huidige probleme met elektrisiteitsvoorsie-
ning tot negatiewe groei in die ekonomie en ’n moontlike resessie kan lei. Ekonomiese groei is afhanklik van sake-eienaars se positiewe vooruitsigte vir die land se ekonomie en toekoms. Eskom reik tans op ’n daaglikse basis teenstrydige nuusvrystellings uit. Dit bring mee dat die vlak van onsekerheid in ons ekonomie tans baie hoog is en sakevertroue waarskynlik redelik laag. Gedurende sulke tye is groot en riskante uitbreidings selde wys. Hoe groter die onsekerheid, hoe groter die risiko. In ’n onseker tyd het selfs Dawid sy risiko’s beperk en gewag totdat hy sou weet wat God aan hom sou doen. (1Sam 22:3) Wees dus versigtig met die aangaan van groot nuwe skuld. Probeer liewer om skuld vir eers so laag moontlik te hou.

Prevention of pregnancy complications The month of February has been dedicated to women’s health on the National Health Awareness calendar, with special attention being given to pregnancy awareness from 10 to 16 February. A team of specialists at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Stellenbosch University and Tygerberg Hospital, have established a new obstetric critical care unit (OCCU) in the labour ward of Tygerberg Hospital, one of only a few in the world. They are concentrating on the prevention and management of pregnancy complications, especially complications that may threaten the lives of both mother and baby. Pregnancy complications may be due to factors like pre-eclampsia (very high blood pressure), bleeding before, during or after la-
bour, infections and underlying disorders such as heart disease. The establishment of this quality emergency care unit in the labour ward of Tygerberg Hospital has already led to a significant decrease in maternal deaths due to pregnancy and non-pregnancy related life-threatening emergencies. Effective emergency management has also decreased long-term complications such as renal failure or cerebral palsy. The maternal mortality in the Western Cape is the lowest of all provinces in the country and comparable to that of private hospitals. The outcomes of seriously ill mothers and babies managed in this unit are as good as, and in some instances even better than, those achieved in countries such as America, Brazil and the United Kingdom.

The Paarl Islamic Youth Movement under the auspices of the Paarl Muslim Jamaa (PMJ) hosted a parent leadership programme last Saturday afternoon at the former Malay school next to the Breda Street mosque. This programme is the first in a series of programmes that will focus on the relationship between parents and children, the role of the parent in developing the child into an independent, confident adult and financial aid to students. Seen here from left are Taliep Samaai (convener of the Paarl Islamic Youth Movement), Sheigh Zarier Moerat (Imam of the PMJ), Dr Salie Abrahams (guest speaker), Fatima Jakoet (SA’s first Muslim woman pilot, also formerly from Wellington and guest speaker), Raagib Najjaar (guest speaker) and Abdul Jabaar Mukkadam.

Sexually Transmitted Infections Week and Condom Week are marked from 10 to 16 February. Although HIV is the most notorious sexually transmitted infection (STI) in South Africa, there are several other STIs affecting the population. A recent study in the Western Cape found that more than two thirds of young women were infected with one or more strains of the human Papilloma virus (which causes cervical cancer), a third had chlamydia, more than one in ten had gonorrhoea, and one in 16 had syphilis. Another study showed that 13% of women in KwaZulu-Natal had STIs, and it was most common in young, unmarried women (under 25). Gonorrhoea is the most common STI seen at South African clinics, with between 36% and 68% of people presenting with it. Make sure you visit your nearest clinic or doctor for regular check-ups.

During the Interhouse swimming gala of Courtrai Primary School the Gr. R and 1 learners also had an opportunity to take part by competing with kicking boards.
For the Gr. 8 learners of Noorder-Paarl High School the second day of their 2015 school-year was not spent sitting behind cold, hard desks, but rather on the soccer field, or under the magnificent wild fig trees, or in the swimming pool – or even climbing a two-storey wall at Manyano Centre. The LIVElife team from Manyano Centre facilitated a jolly Orientation day for the almost 200 learners, which included fun activities and team-building exercises to stretch both mind and body, from the daunting climbing wall, through “crossing a raging (imaginary) river using only a pole and some ropes”, to passing team mates through a “spider’s web” and solving puzzles. Afterwards a dip in the pool was very welcome on this toasty Paarl day.

As die hitte die Paarl tref, koel Gimlaggies se kleuters lekker af op die grasperk. Hier loop opvoeder Marianna Stander met die kleuters deur die sproeiers.
Gr. 8-leerders van Hoërskool Labori het verlede Dinsdag aan die tradisionele boeresport deelgeneem as deel van hulle verwelkomingsweek.
Boland College Paarl campus has welcomed over 400 first-year students and a fun orientation was hosted in collaboration with the Drakenstein Department of Sports. Students played games, slid down water slides and competed at chess. Walking between the various activities, one could sense the excitement and energy. It is going to be a busy year at the start, with students being exposed to a different learning environment, yet moments like these are something they will remember as skilled professionals working in their various fields.
