MUNISIPALE HONDE-EENHEID HELP: Die Stellenbosch Munisipaliteit Wetstoepassing se honde-eenheid het Vrydag ’n operasie in Cloetesville uitgevoer. Tydens die operasie tussen Vredeluststraat en Pinestraat het hulle huise besoek en honde wat nie deur hul eienaars versorg kan word nie weggeneem. Die operasie het slegs gefokus op eienaars wat die hulp wou hê. Insp. Lilly Joubert (tweede van regs) van die Franschhoek Dierebeskermingsvereniging (DBV) en raadslid Valerie Fernandez (heel regs) het hulle bygestaan. Raadslid Fernandez het gewaarsku dat losloperhonde in dié area geskut sal raak en dat eienaars dan ’n boete sal moet betaal. FOTO: ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN
Kayamandi volunteers help to fight crime JUSTICE KHUMELA A Kayamandi neighbourhood watch group, the Lukhanyisweni Committee, said they have arrested six thieves and handed them over to the police during recent patrols. The committee says they have been patrolling Stellenbosch for the past four weeks. They have identified the Stellenbosch train station as one of the top crime hot spots, more so, now that winter is approaching. “Thieves are targeting workers in the early hours of the mornings,” said Msitheli Sidwell Makhomazi, the committee chairman. “These thieves are targeting workers phones and wallets. As a group we have decided to take it upon ourselves to help fight them. They are making life difficult for workers and other Stellenbosch residents.” The unfunded committee is based in Kayamandi’s Lukhanyisweni section, where the group was started. They said their objective is not to act like the police, but to catch thieves and take them to the police.
The committee consists of volunteer Kayamandi residents. The group does not have a fixed membership count and encourage anyone from Kayamandi to join. They have daily patrols from 03:30 to 08:00, around the train station. The patrol group is made up of men of different ages. Some of the elder members are in their sixties, with some of the youngest members in their early twenties. “The age difference has been one of their biggest challenges when it comes to fitness. Some of the older members are not as energetic and fit enough to chase some thieves,” said Makhomazi. “We caught one criminal who later escaped. He was too fast for our group to catch him.” Makhomazi has instructed his group not to take the law into their own hands and harass the thieves they catch. The patrol group is equipped with three walkie talkies. The walkie talkies were donated to them by a local businessman who appreciated their efforts to protect the neighbourhood. According to Makhomazi their help has not gone unnoticed and the police have decided to help train the committee’s patrol group.

Waterpype: nuwe metode Die Stellenbosch-munisipaliteit werk vandeesmaand aan die opgradering van verouderde waterpyplyne in Dorpstraat. Die munisipaliteit maak egter nou gebruik van ’n nuwe metode om die pype te vervang, wat ’n kleiner uitwerking op verkeer het, maar ook die historiese kern sal beskerm. Destyds sou hulle slote opgrawe om die pype te vervang. Nou word slegs klein gate in die padoppervlak gemaak en die pype só gelê. “Met die gebruik van nuwe tegnologie word die historiese leiwatervore sowel as die wortels van jare oue bome teen beskadiging beskerm,” het die munisipale woordvoerder, Vernon Bowers, gesê. “Verder sal die nuwe metode beteken opgrawings sal baie minder tyd neem aangesien daar slegs klein gate in die padoppervlak gemaak word, teenoor die lang slote wat voorheen gegrawe moes word.
“Dit beteken die pad moet vir kort rukkies gesluit word tot die pype geplaas en die gate weer opgevul is. “Die bestaande pyplyn in Dorpstraat loop onder die baan aan die suidekant van die pad. Dié baan was dus gesluit vir motoriste, maar verkeer kon steeds vloei aan die noordekant van die Adam Taspad tot in die dorp. “Vir die verloop van die projek sal Dorpstraat dus ’n eenrigtingstraat wees, met Kerkstraat wat die vloei van verkeer van oos na wes hanteer, soos wat tans die geval is. “Die idee is om die verkeer se vloei so min moontlik te ontwrig en die reistyd in die oggend behoort nie te erg geraak te word nie.” Volgens Bowers het hulle die vloei van verkeer op die R44 ook in ag geneem, maar motoriste word gevra om asseblief geduldig en vriendelik te bly om die situasie so doeltreffend moontlik te hanteer.

Bound for success ANJE SMIT Kanayo Okwuraiwe has been a paraplegic and wheelchair bound for eleven and a half years after being involved in a car accident. He has recently found a job in Stellenbosch and because he will be a lot more active now he will need a new wheelchair, as his old one is showing signs of breaking down. He is in need of a lightweight wheelchair which will be easier and lighter to wheel about and more importantly, light enough to carry as well as put in a car, given that the other goal is to be able to drive a car. Regular and cheaper wheelchairs, which
community organisations usually give away are very heavy, and would be almost impossible for Kanayo to lift into a car by himself. He needs one extra last push to be completely independent and be able to start living his new life and only a car and a new wheelchair can help bring this about along with his new job in Stellenbosch. He has recently started an online fundraiser where he is trying to raise funds for a car and his wheelchair. The fundraiser can be seen under: http://www.gofundme.com/1uuph8. So far he has raised R10 000 with his fundraiser, a long way to go to the R75 000 he needs. Any donations will help Kanayo achieve his goal.

Enaleni ontvang implemente Bemagtigde plaaswerkers van die Enaleniboerdery op die plaas Nagenoeg in Lynedoch, Stellenbosch het ’n trekker sowel as ander plaasimplemente as deel van ’n skenking van die Wes-Kaap se departement van landbou ontvang. Die skenking vorm deel van die departement se Omvattende Landbou Ondersteuningsprogram. Gus Gelant, die direkteur van Enaleni-boerdery, het die toerusting namens die groep ontvang. Gedurende 2009 het Schalk Visser van die plaas Nagenoeg besluit om sy werkers te bemagtig deur ’n gedeelte van sy plaas aan hulle te verkoop. Met die hulp van ’n skenking van die LRAD (Grondherverdeling vir Landbou-ontwikkeling) van die departement van landelike ontwikkeling en grondsake het die werkers ’n 60 % aandeel in die plase bekom. Drie en twintig werkers is hierdeur bemagtig.
Enaleni-plaas is 30 ha groot en 23,89ha is met wyndruiwe beplant. Die druiwe word aan verskeie wynkelders in die omgewing gelewer Van 1 Desember 2012 is Gerrie Albertse aangestel as ’n voltydse mentor en het verantwoordelikheid geneem vir die implementering van die besigheidsplan, vaardigheidsplanne en verseker dat korrekte boerdery- en arbeidspraktyke gevolg word. Die Enaleni-groep beoog om gedurende 2013, 8 ha ou wingerde uit te haal en te vervang met nuwe kultivars. Die oprig van die opleistelsel, plant van nuwe wingerde asook die ontwikkeling van die nuwe stokke word self deur die opgeleide werkers gedoen. Enaleni beoog om wyndruiwe winsgewend te verbou en om hul werkers op te lei in verskeie wingerdboukundige onderwerpe, finansiële bestuur asook kantooradministrasie. Die afgelope seisoen het Enaleni reeds meer as 265 ton druiwe gelewer aan verskeie wynkelders in die omgewing
The next training session for fisheries observers will be held in May at Stellemploy. Suitable candidates must be between 20 and 26 years old and in possession of a valid grade 12 certificate with physical science or biology and mathematics on grade 12 level.
After having completed the theoretical training trainees still need to do practical work to qualify. Observers work away from home for up to three months at a time. For more information phone Gaino or Betta on 021 886 6993.

Student Expo at CTICC Calling all students, graduates, high school scholars and parents to access all they need to know about courses, careers, campus life, loans, accommodation and transport – all under one roof at one time at the Student Expo. The Student Expo is the only exhibition that is designed to provide both current and prospective students with the necessary tools to succeed in tertiary education and beyond. The Expo is being held at the Cape Town International Convention Centre on the 17th and 18th of May, and then moves to Johannesburg, Durban as well as Port Elizabeth. The Expo brings together exhibitors such as corporate companies, financial institutions, professional bodies, real estate firms, motor dealers and tertiary institutions. On both days there will be “Power Hours” which are times that are specifically focused on certain fields/career paths. They will have specialists as well as professors that will be speaking.
Tuesday 14 May 2013
The Expo was initially conceptualised to address the shortfall in student accommodation, but soon progressed to encompass the wide variety of exhibitors it has on offer today. Student Expo assists scholars in making informed decisions about their future as information is readily available on different tertiary institutions, gap year options, student loans, transport and accommodation. Often students still need to learn essential skills such as compiling a CV. At the Student Expo they can learn this essential skill which will assist them in the job market.

“Let’s Beat It” is the title of this year’s production which takes place in the Artscape Theatre at 19:00 on 9 June. Ushering in the significant June 16 Youth Day commemoration, this concert will celebrate and honour South African youth for the tremendous contribution and impact they are making in the country. It will also acknowledge unsung individuals who are doing exceptional work in the HIV and AIDS field and other areas of humanity. Singer, actor and performer Jimmie Earl Perry directs this concert and will be joined by the Mike Campbell Rhythm Orchestra,
Wolfgang Riebe as MC, vocalists Amy Campbell, Wendy Alexander, Spha Mdlalose, Manuel Losper, Luciano Swarts, Lana Crowster, dancers from the Waterfront Theatre Company and other artists. “Using Michael Jackson’s hit ‘Beat It’ as a metaphor to ‘beat’ HIV’, gave me the idea for the title of this year’s production,” said Jimmie Earl Perry. “The words of the song resonated so profoundly with me because it’s about a young man who is living dangerously and told to ‘beat it’ (go away) if he wished to stay alive.” Perry states that through the arts, the aim of these concerts is to continue making people aware of their individual responsibility to help turn around the HIV and AIDS epidemic as well as crime, violence and substance abuse among people in South Africa and around the world. Musical direction and arrangements are by Mike Campbell who has led and worked with groups in Europe, the USA and throughout South Africa. He currently holds the position of Associate Professor and is Head of Jazz at the SA College of Music at the University of Cape Town. Wolfgang Riebe is a well-known motivational speaker, acknowledged for his original and unique approach as a comedic magician and Jean-Pierre Steyn is the vocal rehearsal accompanist. “Let’s Beat It” has an exciting, powerful programme that includes dance, theatre, jazz and adult contemporary music. It will inspire and educate and is suitable for the entire family. Tickets cost R100 for this two hour concert and may be purchased from Artscape Dial-aSeat 021 421 7695 or Computicket.

Nurses’ day celebrated
Khaya Mayedwa, SARU’s Senior Manager for Government and Stakeholder Relations poses for a photo in front of the Tjovitjo! bus with Ikaya Primary School headmistress Tammy Mgijima
The handover.
‘Tjovitjo’ bus saves the day
As part of last year’s Vodacom Cup “Tjovitjo” campaign, Ikaya Primary School in Kayamandi won a branded Tjovitjo bus in a moment that would have a lasting positive impact for the children and teachers at the school The “Tjovitjo!” branded bus has become a regular sight in and around Kayamandi and Stellenbosch since Ikaya Primary School won it as part of last year’s “Tjovitjo!” Vodacom Cup campaign. On any given day the bus ferries the Ikaya pupils to and from rugby, soccer, tennis, gymnastics, athletics and netball events. The bus is also used to take the children on educational school outings and to take Ikaya’s staff to teacher conferences all over the country. “The Tjovitjo bus has made a huge difference to our school. Before we won the bus last year, we had to hire taxis which was a huge problem because with 1 400 learners at Ikaya, we were sometimes hiring up to four taxis at the same time to take our children to and from sporting events,” said Ikaya headmistress Tammy Mgijima. With the added stress of taxis often being late or not showing up at all, coordinating lifts for the Ikaya children became an expensive logistic juggling-act that required considerable time and careful planning to get right. The handover of the Tjovitjo bus has changed all that and the difference it’s made for the teachers and children at Ikaya is evident in the immense pride the school takes in their bus. Despite being use so often, one year on the

There are also certain NGOs that sponsor sports like soccer who have said they will reimburse us for the
petrol we use going to certain events provided we have our own transport. So we fill in a claim form and get money back for petrol in some instances, which is also a huge help.” Ikaya won the Tjovitjo bus after taking part in one of the Tag Rugby clinics last year that ran alongside the Vodacom Cup. All the schools that took part were required to submit regular reports after the clinics concluded that detailed how the schools were rolling out sustainable Tag Rugby programmes.
On 12 May this year nurses all around the world were celebrated for their tireless pursuit of service excellence. Florence Nightingale, best remembered for her work during the Crimean War (1853-1856), fundamentally changed the role of nursing in hospitals and was a key figure in introducing professional nursing training standards. Clicks Nursing Sister Kobie van der Merwe agrees that much has changed since the 1800s. “Historically, nurses were seen as attendants who prepared and administered medicines, cared for the physical needs of patients and followed through on all doctor’s orders. ‘‘A great part of a nursing professional’s role is still focused on providing wellness, comfort and care to patients, but this has evolved into one of the most crucial support functions of modern medicine.’’ Nursing sisters have vast experience in many nursing disciplines and can therefore offer a great variety of services from immunising babies to doing wound care. Even though they work independently in some cases, they will always rely on the knowledge of the pharmacist when it comes to recommending the appropriate medication or treatment. Nursing sisters and pharmacists are also ideal as a first point of call before visiting a doctor. Most clinics and nursing sisters are equipped to offer services for mom and baby, family planning, adult immunisations and wellness screenings. Some of the services for mom and baby include; advice on sleeping, nutrition and feeding, immunisations and developmental information, advice on which supplements to take, what to expect during pregnancy, how to take care of yourself, how to prepare for child birth and breast feeding. “Prevention is always better than the cure, which is why it is important to go for regular wellness screenings at your local clinic,” said Kobie. The types of wellness screenings include blood pressure, BMI glucose and cholesterol tests. The clinics also offer breast examinations and HIV counselling and testing and are also able to refer patients to appropriate facilities and support structures. At selected Clicks clinics you can also get papsmears, finger prick PSA tests for prostate, while all Clicks clinics offer specimen collection for insurance purposes or as requested by a medical practitioner. As one of the preferred partners for more than 50 medical schemes in South Africa, Clicks offers patients a great and more affordable option for these screening tests which are covered by most medical schemes.

New crèche helps children escape fire danger in impoverished areas. “As the winter months approach, the use of candles, paraffin stoves and open fires increases, along with the risk of accidental fires. “According to reports, over the last five years, there are on average 10 shack fires a day in the country. South Africa’s socio-economic challenges contribute greatly to the high incident rate of burns among those living in informal settlements, with the most vulnerable being children, as dwelling units usually consist of highly flammable substances such as wood, cardboard and plastic and are built in close proximity of each other. “With limited services and infrastructure, and minimal safety controls in place, impulsive and fast The fire-resistant crèche helps prevent the spread of spreading flash fires are fires and contains the flames. According to reports at least 15 000 children in South Africa suffer from burns-related injuries every year, with an average of nine children dying each day from these injuries. These shocking statistics make burns the leading cause of injury and death to young children in the country. Speaking ahead of National Burns Awareness Week( 6 to 12 May) David Grier of the Cipla Foundation, affiliated to Cipla Medpro, South Africa’s third largest pharmaceutical company, said the figure tends to rise during the winter months
a constant threat. Fire safety is often compromised due to the dwelling units that are built in close proximity to one another. The units usually have little or no access for firefighting teams or their equipment to gain entry to the fires. In addition to this, there is the lack of affordable safe energy appliances available to the communities,” said Grier. To address the country’s growing shack-fire crisis in these informal settlements, as well as the related burns injuries, the Cipla Foundation has launched the Ajuga initiative – a project that will ultimately see fire-resistant structures installed in informal settlements nationwide. “By replacing crèches with fire-resistant structures, the Ajuga initiative ensures that if there is a fire outbreak, children in the crèches will be protected. With this initiative, we can also provide children with a place of safety and improve the conditions in which they are schooled.” The first two Ajuga structures, sponsored by the Cipla
Foundation, replaced crèches in the informal settlement of Du Noon in Cape Town earlier this year. Currently three more structures are being deployed in this area and another in Khayelitsha. Other projects have been rolled out in the Kwamashu settlement in KwaZulu-Natal. Grier, who designed the Ajuga structure, said that together with Operation Smile, Cipla Medpro has for many years been involved in raising funds for corrective surgeries for children born with cleft lips and palates. “During the Cipla Miles for Smiles initiatives, we noticed the rapid increase of children being admitted with serious burn wounds and that is when we decided to investigate the causes around this. When we saw the shocking devastation caused by shack fires, we could not walk away. That is when the Ajuga project was conceived.” To get involved in the Ajuga project, or to apply for an Ajuga crèche, visit www.ajuga.co.za for more information.
The Ajuga crèche is a fire-resistant structure, designed by David Grier, to help save children in informal settlements.
