A start to an end of the bucket system ASHRAF BOOLEY Many communities in informal settlements in the Helderberg live in harsh conditions and still have inadequate sanitation. The City of Cape Town started its roll-out of portable flush toilets (PFTs) in Sir Lowry’s Pass yesterday, handing out over 460 PFTs to residents in informal areas that include Riemvasmaak and Rastakamp.
Charles Barbers from Rastakamp is happy about the portable flush toilet he has received for his home.

This is the start of an initiative aimed at eradicating the bucket system that is still found in many informal settlements in the Helderberg. The portable flush toilets consist of two removable containers which are able to flush and will be serviced three times a week. According to Ward 100 councillor Johan Middleton, recipients may use the portable flush toilets inside their homes. Many residents indicated that they intend to erect a separate structure next to their homes for its use. The PFTs have to be filled with 20 litres of water to facilitate flushing after it is has been used. The PFTs can be placed outside on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays for Sannicare to clean. “Portable flush toilets will be provided to all those who accept them,” said councillor Ernest Sonnenberg, Mayco member for Utility Services at the City of Cape Town. Marlene Lakay from Riemvasmaak in Sir Lowry’s Pass says she is very happy to get a PFT. “I’ve been living in Sir Lowry’s Pass for eight years and finally things will be much easier with the portable flush toilets in place,” says Lakay. “It’s indescribable. The new toilets will make a big difference in our lives and our environment. Sometimes we had to wake up at night when people came to clean the toilets,” says André October from Riemvasmaak. Not all residents of Sir Lowry’s Pass’ informal settlements received portable flush toilets yesterday. According to Middleton, more toilets will be rolled out in the area soon. “A total number of 562 PFTs will be rolled out to Rastakamp, including the other informal settlements within Sir Lowry’s Pass,” says Sonnenberg. According to Sonnenberg residents of Morkel’s Cottage will also receive portable flush
Residents of informal settlements in Sir Lowry’s Pass flocked to the local community hall where City officials handed out portable flush toilets. toilets today. Residents said they are currently making use of the 64 bucket toilets in the area. In Morkel’s Cottage, some residents feel that an upgrade is long overdue because bucket toilets pose a health risk to them. “It’s disgusting. At first, it wasn’t very dirty. Now that there are people cleaning the toilets, residents throw their waste all over the place,” says Monica Brocks, a resident of Morkel’s Cottage and who also works for Sannicare. According to Brocks, the bucket toilets also pose a safety hazard to children. “During the strike, Sannicare randomly
picked up people in the area to clean the toilets. At night, they dropped the buckets because they didn’t know how to clean it properly, leaving waste strewn all over the area.” Brocks said that when children went to play outside they would trip and fall over the bucket toilets. According to Sonnenberg, further PFT rollouts will start once a consultation has taken plavce with communities and after a beneficiary list has been compiled. The timing of the roll-outs depends on this, he said.

Our children are not safe Altogether 482 cases of child sexual abuse were reported in the Helderberg from April 2012 to March 2013. This is according to Ada Buys, unit manager for Patch, the Helderberg’s centre for child sexual abuse. Statistics such as these are a shocking and stark reality in our country. It makes it imperative for all members of the community to play a role in caring for and protecting our country’s children. National Child Protection Week kicked off yesterday (27 May) and will continue until Sunday 2 June, raising awareness around children’s rights. Our constitution emphasises that children should be protected against abuse, neglect, degradation and maltreatment. The reality is, however, that the rights of many children in the country are being violated on a daily basis. Child Welfare SA Helderberg often comes across child neglect and abuse. Adelé Zeelie, social worker at Child Welfare SA, Helderberg, says child abuse often occurs when children are in foster care and also to those who drop out of school. In Lwandle child neglect and missing children are reported to the station on a regular basis, says Const Mthokosisi Gama, spokesperson for the Lwandle police. It is the responsibility of the community to lend a hand in creating a safe environment for children. This should not only be done during National Child Protection Week, but everyday.

According to the charge sheet, he was arrested on Saturday 18 May after he had removed the doors and windows to his sister’s house in Nomzamo. State prosecutor Clement Abrahams stated that the accused displayed selfish and unacceptable behaviour. “The individual cannot simply just do what he wants to other people’s dwellings. How was the complainant supposed to sleep with no windows or doors, with winter upon us?” he asked. The accused was sentenced to a R2 000 fine or 50 days in prison.

Is jou kind veilig ‘aanlyn’? Dit is baie maklik vir aanlyn-gebruikers om hulself as iemand anders voor te doen op die sosiale netwerke. Dit stel seksuele oortreders in staat om aanlyn met kinders en tieners kontak te maak. Met selfone wat al hoe meer bekostigbaar en toeganklik vir jong mense raak, is dit belangrik om hulle op te voed oor hoe om hulself aanlyn te beskerm. Daar is heelwat gevalle waar kinders en tieners deur middel van die sosiale netwerke soos Facebook en Mxit slagoffers word. Hoewel die netwerke wonderlike kommunikasiegeleenthede bied, moet kinders en tieners geleer word om verantwoordelik daarmee om te
Helpful tips to protect your Facebook profile Here are some helpful tips that you can follow to ensure tight security on your online Facebook profile and away from prying eyes: 1. Control who can see your profile: Set your profile to “only my friends” under the privacy settings tab. Facebook allows all of your networks and all of your friends to be able to view your profile by default. As networks can contain thousands of people, personal information is revealed
to anyone if you leave this option at its default setting. 2. Think carefully about who you allow to become your friend: Once you have accepted someone as your friend, they will be able to access a lot of information about you that you have marked as viewable by your friends. 3. Show limited friends: You can choose to make people “limited friends” who only have access to a partial version of your profile. This can be useful if you have associates who you do not wish to give full friend status to
or who you feel uncomfortable sharing personal information with. 4. Limit access to your status updates and timeline: You may set your status to “off to Strand beach”, which may be useful information for sex offenders. 6. Be careful what you upload: If you are going to upload photographs, video or strong opinions, bear in mind that employers use search engines and social networking sites to check out potential and existing employees.
Angelo Elliot says social networks are addictive. “Limits on social networks must be set for children and teenagers.”
Fabian Jansen sê tieners het deesdae maklik toegang tot die internet. “Dit is beter om hulle aan die gevare daarvan bloot te stel,”
gaan. Die Gazette het van sy lesers gevra of hulle dink kinders is veilig as gebruikers van sosiale netwerke.
“Ek netwerk saam met my kinders op Facebook so ek weet wat die voordele en nadele daarvan is,” vertel Monica Johnson.
Ebon Botes sê dit is beter as ouers hul kinders se sosiale netwerke monitor. “Op dié wyse kan ouers hul kinders se veiligheid verseker.”
Maureen Puma says she trusts that her children are using their own discretion when using social networks. “I haven’t encountered any problems yet.”

Laat waai met truie teen die koue!
Die Helderberg Gazette se winterwarmteprojek, die Gazette Gee Om, word goed deur inwoners ondersteun.
Vandeesweek is nog 44 truie geskenk, wat die totaal tans op 97 truie bring. Die Gazette Gee Om wil graag 890 truie insamel en help om Helderberg-kinders die winter warm en op die skoolbanke te hou. By heelwat skole in die Helderberg is baie leerlinge se ouers werkloos en is geld skaars. Daarom het sommige leerlinge nie truie nie en bly hulle op koue dae tuis of kom hulle sonder ’n trui skool toe. Die koue beïnvloed ook leerlinge se leervermoë. Dit is kommerwekkend aangesien dié skole onder die provinsiale gemiddelde
presteer wat geletterdheid en syfervaardigheid betref. Solomon Qatyana Primêr in Nomzamo het 300 grys truie nodig net vir hul graad 1- tot 3-leerlinge, en Temperance Town Primêr in Gordonsbaai het dieselfde aantal vlootblou truie vir daardie grade nodig. Macassar Primêr het 170 vlootblou truie vir graad 1 tot 3 nodig en Rusthof Primêr in die Strand het 120 vlootblou truie vir hul leerlinge in graad 1 en 3 nodig om warm te bly. Helderberg-inwoners, individue en kerke dra deurlopend tot die projek by. Die Helderberg Opleidingsentrum in Somerset-Wes se studente en personeel het ook tien truie tot die projek bygedra. Strand-inwoner Anna-Maré du Toit (foto
regs) het sover meer as 60 truie vir die Gazette Gee Om geskenk. Van die truie is by haar kollegas by die Virgin Active-gym, Gants-sentrum, Life Church in Somerset-Wes en ’n NG-gemeente gekollekteer. Tans hoop die projek om nog 703 truie in te samel om leerlinge by die bogenoemde skole warm te kan hou gedurende die koue wintermaande. Help ons om ’n bietjie warmte te versprei en wys dat jy, saam met die Helderberg Gazette, omgee. Lewer asseblief donasies van nuwe of tweedehandse vlootblou of grys truie by Boland Media by Mynhardtstraat 37, in die Gantssentrum, Strand af.
Keep our children safe
Anna-Maré du Toit is die grootste ondersteuner van die Gazette Gee Om-projek met ’n bydrae van meer as 60 truie tot op hede.
Gazette-lesers sê hul sê
Child Protection Week is celebrated this week ( 27 May– 2 June) and our focus is once again turned towards our children. However, children – the most vulnerable members of our society – need to be loved and protected everyday of their young lives. The Helderberg has many welfare organisations for children that work continuously to help better the circumstances of children (the future adults of our society) and in this way uplifting our community. Many times the work of these organisations is hampered by a lack of funding, making it difficult to fulfil their role. Find out how you can help these organisations – perhaps volunteering your time, donating clothes or giving a monetary donation. It is also important to help protect children by reporting any form of child neglect or abuse – whether emotionally or physically. Let us join hands and love the children of the Helderberg by working together to keep them all safe.

Smit, Strand Teistering op sosiale netwerke Dit is goed en wel om nuwe wetgewing daar te stel teen seksuele teisteraars, maar om dit tot uitvoering te bring met ’n afgewaterde polisiemag is ’n ander storie! Seksuele teistering sal bly plaasvind by die werk of per sms of per foon of per e-pos – ’n regte bose kringloop! Volgens ’n artikel in die Amerikaanse tydskrif, die Trumpet, is daar meer as 30 000 verkragtings jaarliks (van die teistering lei tot verkragting) en 43 000 moorde jaarliks (teistering lei tot moord ook) in SA! Heers daar nog werklik wet en orde in die nuwe SA? Wette en nogmaals wette word ingestel, maar ernstige misdade gedy! Rynhardt, Somerset-Wes

Musical tour with Adam With 51 years of showbiz experience behind him, the legendary Zayn Adam will take you Thru the Years of his career in his new show at the Roxy Revue Bar at Grand West from Wednesday to Saturday, starting on 24 May to 13 July. Zayn will be accompanied by Phase Four and will perform music spanning most of his career, starting from his debut in the “Coon Carnival” at the age of 12, right up to the songs he currently enjoys singing today. Who could ever forget Give a Little Love with Pacific Express, the song that swept the South African charts in the 70s? Doors open on show nights at 20:00 and the show starts at 20:30. Tickets are available from Computicket at R78 each.
50 JAAR MET SPESIALE KOEK GEVIER: Macassar-inwoner Sharon Williams het op 8 Mei haar vyftigste verjaarsdag by die Zevenwacht-wynlandgoed gevier. Sharon se dogters Laurika en Cindy het haar verjaardagkoek, in die vorm van die L-woonstelblok waar sy die afgelope 38 jaar woon, vir haar gekoop. Sy sê sy was aangenaam verras oor die koek wat sy eers by die partytjie gesien het. “Laurika sê altyd ek wil nooit vir haar kom kuier nie omdat ek té lief vir my huis is,” het Sharon vertel. Leon Poole van Stellenbosch het die koek gemaak.

Netbal was baie gewild op die sportdag ten bate van ’n jeugkamp.
Hierdie groepie het ’n voorsmaak gekry van al die pret wat in die Junie-jeugkamp wag.
Sportdag ten bate van jeugkamp vind byval Die jongspan en tieners van Chris Nissen Park het onlangs na hul plaaslike sportterrein gestroom om netbal, sokker en raak-rugby te speel. Die sportdag was deel van die organisasie Helderberg Outreach se inisiatief om geld
vir ’n jeugkamp in Junie in te samel, en is deel van die Hope in Action-veldtog. Die jeuggroep wat die kamp sal meemaak, sal aan pretaktiwiteite deelneem en ook godsdiensonderrig ontvang, sê Wessel van der Merwe, projekleier van Hope in Action. Altesaam R2 000 is met die
sportdag ingesamel, maar nog R16 000 is nodig om die kamp moontlik te maak. Van der Merwe hoop om dit deur geldinsamelingsprojekte, soos onder meer ’n skoonheidskompetisie, in te samel. Mense wat ’n skenking wil maak, kan hom bel by 083 272 3870 of 021 858 1830.
