Bottles prevent disease Water is a scarce resource and for many South Africans practising cleanliness is a luxury, especially when there is limited access to clean running water.

Peninsula Beverage Company (PenBev), in partnership with The City of Cape Town, has helped combat the risk of illness as a result of the lack of sanitation.

PenBev is the local bottler and distributor of The Coca-Cola Company products in the Western Cape.

They have been donating 2 litre plastic bottles to crèches in the Western Cape which have been transformed into mobile hand-wash units.

They can be squeezed to let water pour out from a long tube, giving communities access to clean water and creating hygiene aware-

ness.

Corporate Communications Manager Denise Green comments: “Diarrhoea as a result of the lack of hygiene is a worrying issue in local communities and settlements.

“We are thrilled we are able to help by donating the bottles which are used to educate communities about the importance of keeping their hands clean, which in turn helps prevent the spread of diseases.

“This initiative forms part of PenBev’s ‘me (people), we (community), world (environment)’ strategy, which serves the communities in which we operate and who have supported us over many years.”

Paarl Bel-Cantokoor vier feesjaar Gebeur wonderwerke nog?

My naam is Maransie. Ek bly in Wellington.

Ek het in die spoorwegkantore gewerk, maar is nou ‘n pensionaris. Ek het bene komplikasies gehad. Ek het al die verskillende hospitale geprobeer. Maar ek het gevoel ek gaan verloor. Hulle wou my bene laat afsit. So een van die mediese dokters het my verwys na “Dr” Mutuba (Kruie Dokter) agter Shoprite in Wellington.

So toe gaan ek soontoe. En “Dr” Mutuba het my ondersoek. En het vir my kruie gegee.

Die bene se geswel het weer terug na normaal gegaan. Ek het ‘n dogter. Sy het maag komplikasies ontwikkel. Toe gaan ons direk na “Dr” Mutuba. Hy het vir haar dadelik kruie gegee. Wat uit my dogter gekom het, kan ek nie in woorde beskryf nie.

My kontak nommer: 078 229 9899

Dr Mutuba: 083 479 9156/ 021 873 3619

Baie dankie “Dr” Mutuba

Die Paarl Bel-Canto-koor vier vanjaar sy 50ste bestaansjaar.

David Samaai, die koorleier, het die koor in 1963 gestig om koorsang in die gemeenskap te bevorder.

Op Sondag 28 April bied die koor ’n sangdiens aan vanaf 09:45 by die VGK Huguenot in Klein Drakensteinweg.

Hierdie sangdiens is saamgestel deur die koorleier en bestaan uit Bybellesings, koorsang en gesange wat die tema “Ons is dankbaar vir ons Herder se liefde” uitbeeld, sê Samaai.

Wyle John Arendse, die koor se eerste amptelike begeleier, het tien jaar gelede saam met die koor ’n soortgelyke sangdiens in hierdie kerk aangebied.

Roderiques Arendse, sy seun, sal hierdie keer as orrelis optree.

Die gemeenskap word vriendelik uitgenooi om saam met die Paarl Bel-Canto-koor fees te vier.

Vir meer inligting, bel David Samaai by 021 862 1917.

News - Nuus

Constitutional court rules over DA SADTU (South African Democratic Teachers Union) Western Cape is ecstatic that the Constitutional Court has dismissed Education Minister of Education Donald Grant’s leave to appeal against the decision of the High Court to have the 27 schools which the department wanted to close down, remain open, pending the review of each school by the Court.

This is huge victory for the 27 schools and SADTU who were respondents.

SADTU regards this also as a severe blow to the national minister of Basic Education Angie Motshekga who opposed the application by SADTU and the 27 schools which was heard

in the High Court in December last year.

Grant, in his Constitutional Court application, wanted to claim costs from SADTU, and they don’t know how he will explain to premier Zille and the tax payers that he has wasted their money.

They are livid because this money could have been used to provide infrastructure to schools, more books, libraries, computer labs and reduce class sizes in poor working class communities.

They hope the premier’s eyes will open and she will relieve Grant’s action to close the schools in the Western Cape.

This is a huge victory for poor schools and members of SADTU in the country.

Here are the teachers with principal Desmond Ceaser in front of their school during a picket to persuade the Western Cape Education Minister Donald Grant to withdraw the collective agreement to stop the closure of the schools.

The Ordinary People hip-hop sessions what I see around me on a daily basis,” says Siyabulela Bhali.

The CD is sold for R50 and is available on order.

Ordinary People hip-hop sessions, hosted by Mfanekiso, takes place on a monthly basis in an open-air space called “eStoepini” in Mbekweni.

A group of Mbekweni Youth (between ages of 16-35) meet on a monthly basis and showcase their talent through the form of hip-hop, poetry, street dance and comedy. The hip-hop sessions have been going for just more than 10 years now.

This is one of the few and most popular platforms that takes the Mbekweni youth away from crime-driven activities and centralizes them into one place where they are not being judged by the community and where they can voice their views without being censored. Their main challenge is, unfortunately, lack of sponsorship and support from surrounding businesses and government institutions.

For more information on the hip-hop sessions, sponsorship and how you can get hold of Maica please contact his manager and event organizer, Mfanekiso @0784682074 or send an email to mfanekiso@gmail.com.

MAICA (Mpumelelo Melathi) was discovered by his fellow crew mate and producer, Mfanekiso (Siyabulela Njomane), back in 2004 in a show that Mfanekiso organized.

He has performed around the Western Cape and in 2006, together with his group “Original Accents”, he was selected to perform in the popular hip-hop theatre show Hip-Hop Connected at Artscape in Cape Town. MAICA is one of the talented rappers in Mbekweni and Paarl in general. He was also featured in a Music from the Cape Winelands compilation CD that was sold all over the world. He also featured in the Isiqalo compilation CD that was released in 2006. Maica also featured in a Belgian produced documentary that focused on life in the township. The documentary was released in Belgium and broadcasted on their national TV. On 30 April he will launch his 10-track CD, Saphola, which is Xhosa for “We’ve been watching”.

“I talk about a variety of things; the social illnesses in and around Mbekweni, love, hip-hop and having fun and I also talk a lot about myself on this CD, my personal struggles as a young man growing up in the streets of Mbekweni and

LYK IS GEVIND: Die halfnaakte lyk van Rudene Counter (17) wat vroeër vandeesmaand langs die Palmietrivier in Klein Nederburg gevind is, is verlede Maandag deur haar ma, Bettie Counter, uitgeken. Volgens haar ma is Rudene laas op 1 April gesien toe sy by hul huis weg is nadat sy ’n R100 gevra het om haar verjaardag die volgende dag te vier. Toe Bettie haar vir twee weke nie sien nie het sy bekommerd geraak en haar by haar pa in Smartie Town gaan soek. ’n Vriend het Bettie aangeraai om die na Paarl-Oos-polisiekantoor te gaan om navraag te doen. Sy het toe op Maandag 15 April haar lyk by die lykshuis gaan uitken. Hier hou die gemeenskap en familie vir Rudene ’n kranslegging by die plek waar haar lyk gevind is. Die moordsaak word ondersoek en enigiemand met enige inligting word gevra om sers. Ernest November by 021 877 5900 te bel.

Recipes

(20 February - 21 March)

At this time it is easy for you to express yourself boldly and confidently. You seem to care less about outside approval and this frees you to act on your own behalf or to do something you have not had the courage to attempt before. Your health and vitality are quite good, and you need physical outlets for your energies now.

ARIES

STIR-FRIED RICE WITH CHICKEN AND PEAS

(21 April - 21 May)

You feel quite amorous and affectionate now and will very much want to share this time with someone you love or at least with congenial company. Your creative or artistic inclinations are also stimulated, and your work in these areas will be especially satisfying and successful at this time.

GEMINI

Ingredients: For The Marinade • 45 ml Soy Sauce • 30 ml Crushed Garlic • 5 ml Oil • 3 Chicken Breasts - Skinned And Deboned • 30 ml Oil • 30 ml Crushed Garlic • 30 ml Grated Fresh Ginger • 1 Onion - Sliced • 1 Large Yellow Pepper Deseeded And Cubed • 250 ml Sugar Peas Cleaned And Halved Diagonally • 125 ml Frozen Or Canned Sweetcorn • 1 Litres Cold, Cooked White Rice

(21 May - 22 June)

Intellectual disagreements or differences of opinion and viewpoints arise now. You may have to speak your mind in a way that challenges or unnerves someone else.

However, your mind is very active and sharp, and your reasoning power is good, so this is a good time to do mental work.

CANCER

(22 June - 23 July)

There is great depth to your conversations. You find yourself revealing secrets or very private matters, and also asking very penetrating questions of others. Superficial answers don't satisfy you now. This is an excellent time to investigate a complex problem or mystery, look for something that has been lost or hidden.

LEO

(23 July - 24 August)

Your personal charm and attractiveness has a positive effect on your career, reputation, or public image. People see you as a loving and lovable person and as someone who is aware of their needs and feelings, which can benefit you at this time. Others are willing to help and cooperate with your aims.

VIRGO

(24 August - 23 September)

You come into contact with a wider circle of people at this time. You may become friends or develop an association with an influential person or someone that can help you a great deal. This is an excellent time for advertising, promotion of a product or event, and mass media communications.

Seasoning • 1 Chicken Stock Cube Crumbled And Dissolved In Boiling Water • 15 ml Boiling Water • 20 ml White Vinegar • 7 ml Sugar

LIBRA

(23 September - 23 October)

This is an excellent time to eliminate whatever is unnecessary and outworn in your life from clutter and disorder in your environment to an unhealthy relationship or even a long-held attitude or belief which keeps you from going after what you really want in life.

SCORPIO

Method: Whisk the marinade ingredients together. Thinly slice the chicken breasts and marinade for about 15 minutes. Heat the oil in a fairly large pan and stir-fry the cooked rice until toasty and lightly browned. Remove from the heat. Pour the marinade off the chicken. Stiry fry the chicken strips until just browned. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for a few seconds until fragrant. Add the onion, red pepper and sugar peas and stir-fry until the red pepper starts to soften.

Add the sweetcorn and rice and stirfry until hot. Add the seasoning, stir and heat through. Season with salt and black pepper if required and serve immediately.

(23 October - 23 November)

At this time you put extra energy into thinking about and organizing your work and professional life. Decisions you make at this time are likely to work out well, as you are clear and objective. Gathering information regarding your career or long-range goals is also favored.

SINCERE COMPASSION: Drakenstein Municipality in association with Drakenstein prison changed the life of the 15-year-old physical disabled Marlon Fransman by donating a wheelchair and bed to him. The wheelchair and bed are custom-made for Marlin’s body and needs. Marlin no longer has parents and his aunt Sophie is now his guardian and takes care of him. The donation was made possible with the good intentions of Paarl FNB, Paarl Business Chamber, Drakenstein Municipality Ward 10 ward project funds, Shonaquip, Monté Christo Miglat and Spilo. Here with Marlon are (rear from left) Drakenstein Prison Area commissioner Jeremy Mattyse, portfolio holder for social services Noël Adams, Sophie de Vries (Marlon’s guardian), Francis Nieuwoudt (Paarl Business Chamber) and a family member.

This is an excellent time to eliminate whatever is unnecessary and outworn in your life from clutter and disorder in your environment to an unhealthy relationship or even a long-held attitude or belief which keeps you from going after what you really want in life. You are also more perceptive than usual. *AFRIKAANS - DAAGLIKSE STERRE: Ram: 083 9140 010, Bul: 083 9140 011, Tweeling: 083 9140 012, Kreef: 083 9140 013, Leeu: 083 9140 014, Maagd: 083 9140 015, Weegskaal: 083 9140 016, Skerpioen: 083 9140 017, Boogskutter: 083 9140 018, Steenbok: 083 9140 019, Waterdraer: 083 9140 020, Vis: 083 9140 021

Stasiefees in Wellington Op 17 – 18 Mei word almal uitgenooi na ’n opwindende Stasiefees. Die stasie is vanjaar 150 jaar en deurlopend deur die jaar word daar fees gevier in en om die Wellington-stasie.

Toegang is R20 vir volwassenes en R10 vir kinders onder 18 jaar.

Die doel is om die dorp Wellington uit te beeld as ’n eenheid en ideale tuiste, wat ’n gemeenskaplike kultuur gevorm het deur ryk insette en invloede van ander kulture.

Dit alles gebring tot hier deur die stasie oor 150 jaar. Saam stap ons met ’n ongelooflike ryk en trotse kultuur met baie entoesiasme die toekoms in.

Op die Vrydagaand sal die bekende sanger Snotkop optree in die tent op die gronde van Wellington Wynkelder. Saam met sy optrede gaan daar kosstalletjies wees om jou innerlike te versterk.

Tekkie Tax-dag, ’n nasionale geldinsamelingsprojek vir ’n geselekteerde groep van ons land se grootste welsynorganisasies, vind plaas op Vrydag 31 Mei. Kindersorg Suid-Afrika is een van hierdie organisasies en die Paarl-tak vra alle Drakensteiners om hulle te ondersteun.

Die publiek word aangemoedig om ’n Tekkie Tax-plakker te koop teen R10. Daar kan ook spesiale veters met ’n “Tekkie Tag” aan gekoop word teen R30. Die publiek moet dan op 31 Mei tekkies en hul plakkers of spesiale veters dra.

Education incentive to raise literacy causes mixed reaction NICOLE MCCAIN The Western Cape Education Department has allocated 30 million rand to fund a cash incentive programme as a reward system for schools that improve their literacy rates.

However, the announcement has received a mixed response from schools.

According to Bronagh Casey, spokesperson for the MEC of Education, Donald Grant, “the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) aims to improve language and mathematics outcomes in all schools in the province.

“To further this aim, the WCED will be allocating R30 million to the incentive programme during the course of the next financial year to schools that improve their literacy and numeracy performance”.

Casey says the incentives are to show appreciation for schools and teachers which have performed well.

“We also want to incentivize other schools to improve their results in order to receive the cash rewards.”

The funds received through the reward programme must be distributed back into the schools, and are earmarked for extra reading materials, equipment in classrooms or new technology, according to Casey.

According to Casey, the criteria for the 2013 rewards has yet to be set, but will be based on the 2013 WCED language and maths testing for Grade 3, 6 and 9.

This has also raised some concerns for local principals.

However, Casey says the criteria will be set in such a way that ensures that schools that improve on their results are also rewarded.

“It will not be just for schools with the best results. Therefore, schools that have not achieved good results in the past have greater opportunities for improvement than a school that has been excelling at a high level already.”

Principal Henry Schemper of Huguenot Primary says if any form of reward is considered, it should happen over a period of at least three years.

“Rather reward consistent growth over a period than a flash in the pan performance that is not sustained. Schools should also be categorised according to the areas that they serve.

“For some schools to achieve a high pass rate is the expectation while for some schools to reach a 50% pass rate is an achievement.

“Stop playing the statistics game and focus the energy where it is needed,” says Schemper.

The WCED is invested in helping school improve their literacy despite a lack of resources, according to Casey.

The WCED has a language and mathematics strategy in place and each school’s language and mathematics strategy has been adapted and improved taking into account where weaknesses of their learners lie in the 2012 testing.

In addition, the WCED has over the last two years provided millions of textbooks and classroom readers to schools, says Casey.

Graad in natuurwetenskappe open deure na verskeie beroepe Het jy geweet ’n BSc-graad kan die begin wees van ’n professionele beroep soos dié van ’n mikrobioloog, ’n laserfisika, ’n eksplorasie-geoloog, ’n rekenaarsagteware-ontwikkelaar, ’n omgewingskonsultant of ’n laboratoriumtegnoloog, om maar net ’n paar te noem?

Tóg neig die meeste jong mense en hul ouers om eerder hoofstroomberoepe soos dié van dokters, ingenieurs of prokureurs te oorweeg.

“Min mense besef hoeveel werksmoontlikhede daar bestaan vir mense met ’n BSc-kwalifikasie,” verduidelik Mariétta van den Worm, hooforganiseerder van Maties se gewilde Natuurwetenskappe Winterweek, wat vanjaar weer van 23 tot 27 Junie op die Universiteit Stellenbosch (US) se kampus plaasvind.

Die geleentheid, wat jaarliks deur die US se Fakulteit Natuurwetenskappe gereël word, gee aan graad 11- en 12-leerlinge met ’n belangstelling in wiskunde, die fisiese wetenskappe en lewenswetenskappe die kans om meer te leer oor BSc-verwante studieprogramme en loopbaan opsies.

Dit sluit onder meer programme in chemie, fisika, geoinformatika, sportwetenskap, die omgewing, wiskundige wetenskappe, menslike lewenswetenskappe, aardwetenskappe en molekulêre biologie en biotegnologie in.

“Ons vertel leerlinge meer oor die studieprogramme wat

hulle kan volg om uiteindelik werk te vind in nywerhede en maatskappye wat byvoorbeeld tekstiele en verwe vervaardig, of wat sorg vir data-sekuriteit by banke, of help om nuwe medisynes te ontwikkel,” vertel Van den Worm.

Die week se program sluit gesprekke in oor die verskillende studieprogramme wat deur die Fakulteit Natuurwetenskappe aangebied word, ’n besoek aan die Planetarium in Kaapstad en verskeie motiverings- en inligtingspraatjies.

Die hoogtepunt op die program is die “Afspraak met ’n wetenskaplike” waartydens leerlinge vrae kan stel aan mense wat ’n BSc-graad verwerf het en nou in die bedryf, in die akademie of by navorsingsinstellings werk.

Die Winterweek word in samewerking met die Natuurwetenskappe Studentekomitee en die Sentrum vir Voornemende Studente van die US aangebied.

Leerlinge kry ook kans om met die US-kampus kennis te maak.

“Dit is ideaal vir die leerlinge wat wil uitvind hoe om sy of haar liefde vir onder meer chemie, syfers, selle, plante, diere, atome, genetika en grafieke in ’n suksesvolle loopbaan om te skakel,” verduidelik Van den Worm.

Die inskrywingsgeld van R1 300 sluit etes en verblyf in ’n universiteitskoshuis in. Die sluitingsdatum vir inskrywings is 18 Mei 2013. Aansoekvorms is beskikbaar by www.sun.ac.za/science.

PRETLOOP EN GROOT BEDERF: Pauw Gedenk Primêre Skool het onlangs ’n pretloop aangebied na die Wellington-stasie. Die pretloop was deel van die Wellington-stasie se 150ste feesvieringe. Lede van die ATKV het die leerlinge daar ontvang en heerlik bederf. By hulle is Herman Bailey (links) en JC Williams (skoolhoof).

SKOONHEDE: Die Mej. Noorder-Paarl finale vind plaas op Dinsdag 30 April in die Gemeenskapsaal om 19:00. Kaartjies by die deur is R25. Hier staan die 12 finaliste van Mej. Noorder-Paarl by die beoordelaars: (van links) Chrisna Ngamfeni, Yurika Braaf, Cody Arendse, Siphokazi Gqagqa, Creason van Wyngaardt, Thina Nduli, Sha-iesta Samuels, Marozelle Sani, Veronique Daniels, Veronique Fredericks, Mischa Arendse en Shivani Samaai. Vir meer inligting skakel Mercia Jacobs by 021 872 7016 (skool).

PRETDRAF: Leerlinge van primêre skole het onlangs die koue vroegoggendlug vir die 8 km Run Against Drug Abuse (RADA) aangevat. Die jong spanne wou wys hulle gee om vir mense wat ten spyte van seksuele mishandeling, dwelmverslawing en ander vorme van mishandeling steeds sterk staan. Moeders met hul klein kinders en babas het gestap en die 8 km voltooi. By die wegspringpunt het skole soos Paarlzicht Primêr reeds probeer die voortou neem.

BOEKEDAG: Hoër Meisieskool Paarl het onlangs wêreld Boekedag gevier. Die gr.11-leerlinge het vir die laerskoolkinders stories tydens pouse gelees. Daar was ook verskeie boekuitstallings en ook soetgoed te koop om saam met die geselligheid te geniet.

Let’s zoop it up for the hungry There’s nothing better on a winter’s day than a bowl of delicious hot soup.

And there’s nothing better than doing some good at the same time. Buy any Denny soup and, on National Soup Day, 31 May, you will help FoodBank South Africa feed thousands of hungry people.

Denny, South Africa’s premier ready-to-eat soup range, is once again championing National Soup Day in a bid to ensure that people living in our poorest communities may also enjoy a good hot meal when they need it most. Denny will donate 40c worth of soup for each Denny Soup sold between April and August to FoodBank SA, a non-profit organisation and the country’s only food banking network that secures quality food for the hungry, helping to alleviate hunger and malnutrition in South Africa.

Currently, there are about 11 million people in South Africa who do not know where their next meal will come from and one in five children under the age of nine suffers from stunted growth as a result of malnutrition. FoodBank South Africa distributes food to more than 1 000 NGO’s through-

out the country, ensuring that the donated food reaches the families and children who need it most.

The National Soup Day campaign aims to give consumers an easy way of feeding the hungry during the coldest months of the year. By purchasing a Denny Soup throughout the month of April as well as on National Soup Day itself, not only will you be stocking your own cupboard with some hearty goodness, but you’ll also be sharing the love with your fellow South Africans.

Denny’s managing director, Ron Hoskin says: “Denny guarantees a minimum donation of R200 000 worth of soup to FoodBank South Africa although this year we hope to beat last year’s figure of R300 000. In advance, we thank all our consumers for coming on board with this initiative.”

Villagers verniel Bloues

Villagers Newton het Saterdag op hul tuisveld die Bloues aan flarde gespeel.

Villagers het die veel swaarder span van Malmesbury met 27-5 geklop. Die besoekers se agttal was baie groter en sterker as die tuisspan, maar het swaar geleef in die skrums en lynstane.

Pikkie Didloft het talle omgekeerde besit vir Villagers verseker. Die tempo waarteen Villagers se agterspelers gespeel het, was ook gans te vinnig vir die besoekers.

Puntemakers vir die Villagers was Maxwell Solomons (twee drieë, een strafskop en twee doelskoppe), Aiden Cupido (een drie), Anthony Pietersen (een drie). Villagers se tweede span het 37-10 gewen.

Saterdag speel Newton weg teen United Stones. Vervoer vertrek 13:00 vanaf Newton veld.

Die Paarl Varswater Hengelklub het sy vierde kompetisie van die jaar gehou by die uitdagende Theewaterskloofdam op 13 April.

Die hengelaars het gemengde welslae behaal en 14 van die 34 hengelaars is terug huistoe met mombakkies op. In hengeltaal beteken dit natuurlik dat hulle niks vir die dag gevang het nie.

Anton Olivier was die beste hengelaar in A-sone met vyf vis en Johan Otto die beste hengelaar in B-sone met 27 vis. Johan was dan ook die algehele wenner vir die dag met Nico Joone in die tweede plek met 20 vis en sy vrou Erica in die derde plek met 14 vis.

David Kotze het die meestersafdeling gewen met vyf vis, Zandrea van Deventer die junior afdeling met twee vis en Gerrit Bester jr. was die beste penkop met twee vis.

Van die vroue was daar net twee wat suksesvol was met Erica, die wenner, gevolg deur Magda Otto met vyf vis.

Ná vier kompetisies is Anton steeds die algehele voorloper met 116 punte, gevolg deur Johan ook met 116 punte en Magda in die derde plek met 110 punte.

STEEKSKOPPIE: Boland Landbouskool het Saterdag Wynberg Seunskool die stryd aangesê op Boland se veld. Die manne van Kaapstad het net nie genoeg skietgoed gehad vir die tuisspan se brute krag nie. Boland wen die stryd 37-27. Hier wys Danrich Visagie sy vaardighede met ’n perfekte steekskoppie teen die kantlyn af.
