Two schools will close in December Firearm registration THE minister of education, Donald Grant has made his final decision to close down LK Zeeman (Amstelhof) and Bergrivier Primary (Wellington) Schools at the end of this year.

Kyk skerp om blindheid te voorkom DAAR is ’n beraamde 1,4 miljoen blinde kinders in die wêreld en een uit elke vyf van hulle woon in Afrika suid van die Sahara. Die helfte van hierdie blinde kinders sou kon sien as hulle toegang tot behoorlike oogsorg gehad het. Dit is hierdie feit wat die internasionale nie-winsgewende organisasie ORBIS se veldtog om sig te red, motiveer. Vir kinders is tydsberekening deurslaggewend. Prasidh Ramson, programbestuurder van ORBIS Afrika, verduidelik dat kinders se sig tot op die ouderdom van ses jaar steeds ontwikkel. Die lig en donker wat die oog waarneem, stimuleer die ontwikkeling van die brein se vermoë om beelde te interpreteer, wat visuele bane in die brein opstel. Indien ’n kind op hierdie vroeë ouderdom sigprobleme het, is dit moontlik dat die visuele stelsel nooit behoorlik ontwikkel nie. “Ongelukkig word baie kinders se oogprobleme eers
opgemerk wanneer hulle met skool begin en in sommige gevalle kan dit dalk te laat wees.” Om ouers en versorgers te help, het ORBIS ’n kontrolelys saamgestel om moontlike oogprobleme op te merk en gou op te tree. Dit sluit in: ) Wanneer jou kind gebore word, maak seker dat sy of haar oë nagegaan word. “’n Pasgeborene kan konjunktivitis (bindvliesontsteking) ontwikkel weens blootstelling aan bakterieë tydens geboorte. Kinders kan ook met katarakte gebore word, wat gewoonlik deur chirurgie reggestel kan word.” ) Herhaaldelike infeksie. “Pofferige oë, rooiheid, oormatige waterigheid of afskeiding is tekens om op die uitkyk voor te wees.” Onmiddellike mediese aandag word vereis totdat die probleme opgelos is. ) Skeel oë, oë wat nie dieselfde grootte is nie, of uitpeul. ) ’n Melkerigheid in die pupil (die swart middelpunt van die oog) kan katarakte aandui. Groeiende kinders kan katarakte ontwikkel weens ’n besering of ’n sistemiese toestand soos diabetes. ) Vanaf die ouderdom van drie maande behoort die oë bewegende voorwerpe te kan volg. ) Oogbeserings is baie algemeen. Moet nooit oë met enigiets anders as koel, skoon kraanwater uitwas nie en moenie self probeer om vreemde voorwerpe te verwyder nie. Kry so gou as moontlik mediese hulp. Besoek www.orbis.org.za

Paarl thrashed neighbours in first Time Cricket match THE first cricket team of Paarl Cricket Club got off to a great start in the first series of Boland’s Time Cricket competition, when they thrashed Paarl East by 113 runs at the Parys grounds on Saturday. After winning the toss, the home team came away with 20 match points, when they posted 198/9 in their allotted 65 overs and
needed only 38 overs to dismiss the opposition for a paltry 85. Solid contributions came from Darryl Hendricks (34), Godfrey Stevens (34), Riaan Nieuwoudt (35), Lynal Jansen (27) and Graeme Adams (23), while leg spinner Wayne Minnies (6/76) bowled an impressive 22 overs to keep the home team in check. Hendricks (5x4) started like a house on fire, hitting two boundaries in the opening over, but became Minnies’ first victim, caught behind when attempting to cut. Nieuwoudt also reached

the boundary on five occasions, while Adams hit the only six. For the visitors, Llewellyn Sedgwick (19) fought a lone battle against the accurate Paarl bowling attack. Rabian Engelbrecht showed why he was rated the fastest bowler at the 2011 u.19 World Cup in New Zealand, with the Paarl East top order clearly being out of their depth against his devastating pace. His accurate line and length built the pressure, to create the opportunity for debutant Keegan van Aarde (3/6 in 3 overs) to wrap up the match, after the damage was done by spinners Jansen (4/14) and Stevens (3/29). Paarl’s second XI crashed to their first defeat in Vredenburg, after misreading the
conditions. In the other match at the Parys grounds, Paarl’s 3rd XI scored an impressive 47 run win over Paarl East in a 40 over match. Burton Francis (83) showed that his talents stretch further than the No. 10 jersey in the Super Rugby competition, hitting seven sixes and four boundaries from 68 balls. He was well supported by captain Carlo Crotz (59) with five boundaries in his patient knock, to lay the foundation for a total of 202/7 with their 128 run partnership for the fourth wicket. Paarl East was dismissed for 155, after fine bowling by Elton Du Plessis (4/36) and Justin Albertus (3/28). Veteran Jaques Daniels (74) was the only visiting batsman to offer substantial resistance.
