Padveiligheid onder loep
Die Stellenbosch-verkeersdepartement het Saterdag en Sondag padveiligheidsaksies langs die paaie in die omgewing gehou. Saterdag was die padblokkade op die Strandpad, digby Paradyskloof en Sondag was dit op die Helshoogtepas om bewustheid te skep onder die groot aantal motorfietsryers wat veral naweke dié pad gebruik. Verskeie voertuie is op die Strandpad afgetrek. Hier (op die inlasfoto) vra Liesle Petersen (links) en Masudah Ras ‘n motoris om sy lisensie te toon as deel van die departement se veiligheidsaksie.

FACELIFT FOR GRACELAND: A team of people from Broco Logistics Management Solutions (soon to be known as Imperial Management Solutions from 1 July), based in Techno Park, gave some of their time on Saturday to give Graceland Pre-primary School, a small crèche in Devon Valley, a make-over. They repainted the outside and the bathrooms, washed the carpets and also cleaned the storage room. Here are the volunteers in front of the school. PHOTOS: ALEXA MAZZA
Safety first: crime prevention for women IT’s a disturbing reality that women are more vulnerable to crime, because many criminals view women as soft targets. After a number of women were targeted in the area, ADT Security is offering a number of tips to help women stay safe. Two young women were attacked leaving clubs last week. One was raped and robbed after she got into her car outside a night club and a second was involved in an attempted rape the next morning. Rob Dale, managing director of ADT Security Western Cape said the key to safety is always to err on the side of caution. “Tell someone where you are going and the time you expect to return. “Save to your mobile phone or memorise the details of the person to be contacted in the event of an emergency. “Remember, less is more when it comes to wearing flashy jewellery and carrying cash. Also, if you are taking a handbag, carry it close to your body and not dangling by the straps.” Dale also warns against the dangers of becoming distracted. “A distracted person is an easy target. Often women have several things to take care of at once, and it’s vital that they remain
alert at all times. “Be aware of people around you when heading towards your vehicle, especially at places such as shopping centres and petrol stations. Ensure that you take a moment to check the street before pulling into a driveway, be it your own or a friend’s.” If you are driving, Dale said the first thing to do once you are inside your vehicle is to ensure that all the doors are locked. “Never drive with a handbag or any other valuable items on a seat or in the view of anyone looking into your vehicle from the outside. “Try and make your car a mobile-free zone, so you can concentrate on your surroundings, and keeping yourself and your family safe.” Most important is to trust your instincts. “Women have great intuition and should listen to their instincts. If someone or something makes you feel uneasy, avoid them and leave the area.” By following these precautions, Dale says, women can develop highly effective safety habits and avoid dangerous situations. “I encourage women not only to use these tips, but to share them with family and friends.”

Website to address crime A new website aimed at creating awareness regarding crime in our area was recently launched by a resident of Stellenbosch. According to the site’s creator, who wanted to remain anonymous, the idea is for everyone to become involved by the use of social media and to help stop crime. “Social media have an impact in our lives. Connecting and engaging with one another leads to safer communities “Your information is safe and secure on the site and you also have the power of your phone to stay connected and safe at all times, no matter where you are,” she said. She said the web site was created to bring back the sense of community in Stellenbosch. “We can earn each other's trust again, if we create a trusted environment for our community. Each and everyone must focus on crime and safety.” The website, www.ananovel.com gives users a platform to share what is happening around their neighbourhood. “When we start talking to one another good things start to happen. Most people don’t even know their neighbours.
“Tell us your stories so that we can learn from it. Share information with people near you while still keeping your privacy,” she added. The site also gives others updates on suspicious activity. “In school, children are scared to talk about bullying. The site gives them a safe place to share information. “The site also gives the police a way to cooperate with the community by sharing crime prevention and safety tips, information, alerts of property crime or suspicious activity. We can alert police without being scared.” The use of the website is free. Invite friends, family and neighbours to start making a difference. For information regarding the use of the site, send an e-mail to info@ananovel.com or visit the site at www.ananovel.com and register as a user to start talking. ) You can also share crime tips and incidents by visiting www.eikestadnuus.co.za or www.bolandgazette.co.za.

Winterwarmte
Brrrr! Dit is bitter koud in die Boland en in ons gemeenskap is talle haweloses. Saans slaap hulle koud, sonder ’n kombers of ’n snoesige duvet waaronder so baie van ons kan inkruip. Eikestadnuus en die Stellenbosch Gazette doen hiermee ’n vriendelike beroep op die vrygewige Stellenbosse gemeenskap om komberse en warm klere te skenk aan ons Winterwarmte-projek. Hierdeur poog ons om die wintermaande draaglik te maak vir diegene sonder ’n warm skuiling. Nuwe komberse, gebruikte komberse, daardie liefling-kombers van die jongste telg noudat hy uiteindelik uit die huis is, ou slaapsakke – enige warm ding. Handgebreide of gehekelde komberse sal natuurlik ook baie welkom wees. Stellenbossers is bekend vir hul naastediens. Dus, bring asseblief jul komberse en warm goed na ons kantoor by Alexanderstraat 44, Stellenbosch, of bel ons by 021 887 2840 en ons kom laai dit sommer self op. Die warm goed sal aan erkende gemeenskapsorganisasies oorhandig word om aan behoeftiges uitgedeel te word. Vir meer inligting oor Eikestadnuus se Winterwarmte-projek stuur ’n epos na samantha.vandenberg@eikestadnuus.com.
Studie oor diversiteit STEPHANIE NIEUWOUDT Taal wat hulle nie verstaan nie en kennisgewingborde met net Afrikaans daarop is van die dinge wat studente op die Universiteit Stellenbosch (US) kampus uitgesluit en onwelkom laat voel. Dit is die bevinding van ’n groep derdejaarstudente in visuele kuns nadat hulle vir ses weke lank met ’n diverse groep studente op kampus onderhoude gevoer het oor diversiteit en wat gedoen kan word om hulle hier meer welkom te laat voel. Dié projek, onder leiding van dr. Elmarie Costandius van die departement Visuele Kuns, was deel van ’n veel groter diversiteitsprogram waardeur die US probeer om die studentekorps meer divers te maak en studente van oraloor op die kampus welkom te laat voel. Vyf-en-twintig studente in visuele ontwerp is in vyf groepe verdeel. Hulle het vyf projekte begin waardeur hulle met ander studente op kampus in gesprek kon tree. Die een projek het uit ’n tydelike toilet op die Rooiplein bestaan waarop vrae oor diversiteit as graffiti gestel en beantwoord is. ’n Tweede projek het bestaan uit stukke draad waaroor vygies gegroei het – kennisgewings met die woorde: “Ons behoort” en “Ons groei saam” is hier aangebring. Nog ’n projek het behels dat ’n oopgeslane boek met ’n driedimensionele beeldhouwerk uit die blaaie gesny,
in die biblioteek uitgestal is. Daar was onder meer ook spieëls by die studiehokkies aangebring sodat die student voor na die student agter hom/haar kon kyk en die student agter ook na die voorste student kon kyk. “Met al die projekte is probeer om studente met mekaar te laat gesels en mekaar oor verskillende grense te leer ken,” verduidelik Costandius. Die gesprekke waarin die kunsstudente ander studente pols oor hul siening van diversiteit, is noukeurig gedokumenteer. Dít en visuele materiaal vorm deel van die studente se eksamenprojekte. Die navorsingsresultate sal ook as ’n boek gepubliseer word. “Uit die navorsing is dit duidelik talle studente voel vervreemd as hulle net Afrikaans op kampus en in die lesinglokale hoor. Die meeste kennisgewings is ook steeds net in Afrikaans en dit is vir andertalige studente erg vervreemdend. As studente byvoorbeeld nie van die kennisgewingborde kan aflei waar hul eksamenlokale is nie, kan dit tot paniek en vrees lei,” sê Costandius. Volgens haar het dit ook duidelik geblyk dat studente wat nie vriende het of aan sosiale bedrywighede deelneem nie, makliker geïsoleerd voel as studente met vriende en die wat lid is van studente- en sosiale organisasies. Die studente het ook voorleggings van vyf minute elk aan die rektor, prof. Russel Botman gedoen. Hy was so beïndruk met die projek dat hy versoek het dat die toilet weer op die Rooiplein moet wees met die volgende raadsvergadering.

Nellie Robain: “Die duurste ding vir ons is kos, vleis veral; selfs hoender raak nou vreeslik duur.”
Tanswill Stade: “Kos, veral vleis, vreet mens se geld.”
Dorothy September: “Ek gebruik gelukkig nie petrol nie, maar skoonmaakmiddels is maar die duurste ding waaraan ek moet geld spandeer.”
Ondersteuners het die hele wedstryd lank Kylemore-rugbyliedjies gesing.
Marjorie Stubbs: “Ek spandeer definitief meeste van my geld op kruideniersware en petrol elke maand.”
Die vreugde was groot toe Kylemore een van sy drieë gedruk het.
