Weg met dwelms, sê laerskoolleerders

Die leerders van JJ Rhode Primêr op Vaaldraai, Elsenburg, het Vrydag 25 Julie ’n optog teen dwelmmisbruik in die gemeenskap gehou.

Sowat 300 leerders het die strate ingevaar met plakkate en het eenvormig slagspreuke, soos stop dwelmmisbruik, geskreeu.

Die skool is beroof van rekenaars en ander elek-

troniese apparate, en daar word vermoed dat hierdie items verkoop word vir dwelmgeld.

“Die aksie is gehou teen inbrake by die skool.

Ons wil die tikhuise uitkry,” sê Nicol Barends, adjunkhoof van JJ Rhode Primêr.

“Ons maak die kinders bewus van dwelms en die gevare wat dit inhou. Ons wil ook hê die gemeenskap moet saamstaan teen dwelms, en dus voed ons die gemeenskap op sodat ons misdaad kan uitroei.”

Less school vandalism during June holidays During the June/ July holiday period 23 schools across the province reported incidences of vandalism or burglary.

This represents a decrease from 31 incidents reported for the same period last year.

Of the 23 schools, the Cape Winelands District reported nine incidents of burglary and vandalism.

The Metro Central District had four incidents reported, four from the Metro South District and two from the Metro North District.

In order to protect the schools as far as possible from burglary and vandalism over the holiday period, the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) Safe Schools directorate arranged for increased security at some of our schools in communities identified as high risk.

About 495 schools received either 24 hour security or benefited from cluster patrols.

Unfortunately, despite these measures, some of our schools still fall victim to vandalism and burglaries during the school holiday.

The WCED received one report of vandalism and burglary from each of the following districts; the Eden and Karoo District, Overberg District, West Coast and Metro East District.

Only one case has been classified as “major”, 21 cases have been classified as “minor” and one case has been classified as “negligible”.

In most cases, perpetrators broke into the school bathrooms and vandalised the interiors.

In other cases, computer labs, school offices and classrooms were broken into. Electronics were stolen and doors and gates damaged while trying to gain entry.

The WCED has received estimated costs of damages for eight of the 23 schools. This amount is estimated to be approximately R400 000 so far.

School vandalism not only comes at a cost to the Education Department but also the learners and the community are negatively affected.

It is important for communities to take ownership of the schools in their area and realise that they have an important role to play in protecting their community’s assets.

WCED urge community members to be extra vigilant throughout the year and to immediately report any suspicious behaviour or activities that occur within the vicinity of schools.

Debbie Schäfer, Minister of Education in the Western Cape, would like to encourage communities with neighbourhood watches to include the schools in their patrols and increase patrols especially during the school holidays.

They do however need to acknowledge the decline in reported incidents and thus thank Safe Schools, Metro Police, SAPS and members of the community for their sustained efforts in assisting to bring an end to vandalism and burglary in our schools.

(Please note: The WCED does not identify the names of schools that have been affected by burglary and vandalism. In many cases, the damages caused by the perpetrators can result in a security threat or breach).

Mischka one of last 16 finalists Following a demanding and life-altering four months of hard work, dedication and sincere commitment to the environment and the community, the Miss Earth South Africa organisation is proud to announce its finalists for the 2014 title.

Hou tred met veranderings en vooruitgang

Van tyd tot tyd is dit belangrik dat ’n mens bietjie die wêreld in oënskou neem om te bepaal of jou besigheid nog tred hou met veranderinge en vooruitgang.

Behalwe vir al die tegnologiese veranderinge, is daar baie faktore waarvan enige besigheidspersoon kennis moet neem in sy beplanning vir die afsienbare toekoms.

Eerstens is daar die geweldige arbeidsonrus en al staak die werkers by jou onderneming nie, het ’n staking gewoonlik ’n kettingre-

aksie wat veroorsaak dat die staking by ander ondernemings van wie jy onderdele of dienste moet verkry, jou besigheid ook benadeel. Het jy planne hoe om die skade van sulke vertragings tot die minimum te beperk?

Verder vra baie werknemerorganisasies deesdae dat daar weggedoen moet word met arbeidsmakelaars. Indien jy wel arbeid gebruik wat via sulke makelaars voorsien word, het jy ’n plan hoe jy te werk sal gaan as dit ’n werklikheid sou word? Watter mense

Wen elektriese fiets ’n Gelukkige leser van Eikestadnuus gaan binne die volgende maand of twee die kans staan om ’n unieke elektriese motorfiets te wen!

Die knip-en-plak-kompetisie begin op 31 Julie en lesers moet seker maak dat hulle die Eikestadnuus op daardie dag koop.

Die eerste plakstuk verskyn vandag in Gazette en jy het dus ’n lekker voorsprong om aan die kompetisie deel te neem!

Al wat jy nou elke week moet doen om ’n kans te staan om die elektriese, omgewingsvriendelike motorfiets te wen, is om die Eikestadnuus op Donderdae te koop, die legkaartstuk uit te knip en

dit op sy regte plek op die inskrywingsvorm te plak.

Dié vorm verskyn Donderdag in Eikestadnuus.

Die sluitingsdatum is 14 September 2014.

Voltooide inskrywingsvorms kan by enige van die volgende plekke ingegee word: Eikestadnuus se kantore by Alexanderstraat 44, Stellenbosch, Extreme Bikes by Tennantstraat 33, Tennantville, of by die inligtingstoonbank in die Eikestad Mall. Slegs oorspronklike inskrywingsvorms sal aanvaar word en kompetisiereëls geld. Maak dus seker dat jy vandeesweek se Eikestadnuus koop om te verseker dat jy jou inskrywingsvorm betyds kry.

sal jy permanent behou en watter nie? Dit is baie beter om so iets lank vooruit te beplan as om skielik so ’n besluit te moet neem die dag as dit ’n werklikheid word.

Dan is daar die opwaartse neiging van rentekoerse. Het jy al gekyk en beplan vir die effek daarvan op jou inkomste en uitgawes?

Verwag jy laer verkope as gevolg daarvan? Is daar die moontlikheid dat jy mense sal moet aflê of is daar dalk nuwe markte wat jy kan ontgin?

Afhangende van die tipe besig-

heid wat jy bedryf, is daar ander faktore soos die brandstofprys, wisselkoerse, nuwe wetgewing t.o.v. reis en werk in die buiteland, ens. wat ’n invloed kan hê. Laastens is dit belangrik dat ’n mens nie moet dink jy hoef nie aan te pas by nuwe tegnologie nie.

Rekenaars en die internet is lankal nie meer net nuttige tegnologie wat

jou werk kan vergemaklik nie. Dit het so ’n integrale deel van enige besigheid geword dat jy beswaarlik daarsonder kan klaarkom.

Is jou toekomsbeplanning sodanig dat jy hierdie uitdagings die hoof kan bied en selfs nog jou besigheid kan laat groei?

The joint effort of MFM and Stellenbosch Municipality to enrich the lives of underprivileged people.

Municipality also active The Stellenbosch Municipality and MFM, the Stellenbosch based community radio station, exceeded their target of making 5 000 sandwiches in the Toasties for Tummies event on 23 July 2014.

The Mandela Day event yielded 6 700 sandwiches, which were prepared and distributed to organisations and schools such as Melton Primary School, Rosendal Primary School, Klapmuts Primary School and the Stellenbosch Night Shelter.

The aim was to improve the lives of less fortunate individuals. To this end the Munic-

ipality also participated in other Mandela Day events on 18 July.

Councillor Donovan Joubert of Idas Valley handed out blankets and clothing to people at Lanserac Farm. Councillor Sophie Louw of Klapmuts handed out soup and sandwiches to the community. The Mayor’s Office painted the Kayamandi Trauma Centre.

Lastly, the Municipality also participated in the Premier’s Food Forward 100% Green Project, which focuses on minimising food wastage while providing meals to the less fortunate.

Die wenners is (agter van links) Dylan Duncan (NXT), Byron Mckeith (tweede), Saroney Vaughan (derde), Dillon Cain (wenner), en voor is Chunike Hoffman, Nerisha Roos en Meché Fortuin (NXT, vierde).

Talentvolle Cain is tops Die finale ronde van die Reik Na Die Sterre-talentkompetisie Seisoen 1 het Vrydagaand in die Stellenbosch-stadsaal begin.

Dillon Cain, ’n hip-hop kunstenaar van Cloetesville, het met die eerste prys weggestap.

In tweede plek was die sanger Byron McKeith – ook van Stellenbosch, in die derde plek Saroney Vaughan van Worcester, en die vierde plek het aan die dansgroep NXT van Franschhoek gegaan.

Die top-12 kunstenaars van dié seisoen dring outomaties deur na die volgende rondes, waaraan ander streke gaan deelneem. Die finaal vind in Augustus by die Grand Arena, Grandwest plaas.

Arno Louw, bestuurder van Arizona Spur, Stellenbosch, was een van die borge. Regs is Abe Pieterse, die seremoniemeester vir die aand.

Madiba inspireer toerismeorganisasie Stellenbosch 360, die dorp se dinamiese toerismeorganisasie, het kragte met Heart Capital saamgesnoer om sosiale en volhoubare verandering in Kayamandi te vestig, deur groenvingers en mannekrag aan hulle Foodpods-projek ter viering van Mandela-dag te verleen.

Geïnspireer om van elke dag ’n Mandeladag te maak, het Stellenbosch 360 reeds vroeër vanjaar na Heart Capital, ’n impakinvesteringsorganisasie in Kaapstad, uitgereik en ’n sandsakhuis vir hulle Heart Capital Foodpods Hub geborg. Dié innoverende ‘groente-hub’ is in Kayamandi opgerig om voedselsekerheid vir die plaaslike inwoners op ’n volhoubare wyse te kweek.

“Hierdie baanbreker groente-projek maak dit vir die plaaslike inwoners moontlik om hulle eie organiese groente te kweek, te eet en te verkoop. Dit is te danke aan Heart Capital wat aan hulle die infrastruktuur, opleiding en ondersteuning verleen sodat hulle hul eie agri-besigheid daar op eie bodem op die been kan bring en vol-

hou,” verduidelik Matt Smith van Stellenbosch 360. Ter viering van een van vanjaar se Mandela-dag-temas – voedselsekerheid – het Stellenbosch 360 hulle moue opgerol en met kwas en verf hul geborgde huis verfraai, gehelp om nog ander sandsakhuise te bou, en ook nuwe saailinge en plantjies in die Foodpods geplant.

“Ons groei graag saam met ons plaaslike gemeenskappe om ’n beter, en ’n meer omgee-samelewing te bewerkstellig. Dit het my hart so warm gemaak om te sien hoe die kunshandwerkers van die plaaslike sentrum van entrepreneurskap en vrywilligers saamspan om ons huis in alle kleure van Afrika te tooi,” sê Annemarie Ferns, hoofuitvoerende beampte van Stellenbosch 360. “Deur na hierdie gemeenskap uit te reik, poog ons om ’n klein verskil te maak in die wêreldstryd teen hongersnood en armoede en ons daag al ons mede-Stellenbossers uit om in Madiba se voetspore te volg en ’n lewe van ’67 minute’, elke dag te leef, in plaas daarvan om dit net jaarliks te doen,” voeg Ferns by.

Outreach introduces art as career to learners Learners from schools in the Stellenbosch area attended the KickstART educational outreach initiative on Friday 25 July at the Sasol Museum.

Altogether 90 learners from Lückhoff, Cloetesville, Kayamandi and Kylemore Secondary schools participated in this outreach initiative of the Stellenbosch Outdoor Sculpture Trust (SOST). The purpose was to encourage entrepreneurship and hope through art and design in the Stellenbosch area.

“This programme offered us the opportunity to get involved with the community. We have a chance to make a difference in the lives of these students,” Michael van Wyk, a partner at Deloitte, said. The learners attended an art workshop by the Stellenbosch Academy of Design and Photography (SADP). The programme also included an entrepreneurship/ vocation workshop by local speaker, Francois Malherbe, along with a guided tour of the public outdoor exhibition, Kom Sit, currently on display in the Stellenbosch town centre.

Three learners will be selected and awarded bursaries to attend the PJ Olivier Art Centre in Stellenbosch in 2015.

R70 000 prize purse draws top trail runners

Micheal Bailey is one of the strongest contenders to win the trail run.

More than R70 000 is up for grabs in the newly structured Sanlam Cape Town Marathon.

The marathon has been re-envisaged, revitalised and has launched a festival of running that includes an iconic city marathon, a 10 km peace run, a corporate and schools relay, a fun run and two trail runs – the 22 km and 11 km Cape Town Peace Trails. Both trail runs will take place on 20 September and start and finish at the Green Point A1 Track next to the iconic Cape Town Stadium. Both routes take on the magnificent tracks and trails of nearby Signal Hill, Lion’s Head and Camp’s Bay, offering local and international runners stunning views of Cape Town, Table Mountain, Robben Island and the Atlantic Seaboard.

The total prize purse for the two trail runs amounts to just over R70 000. Of the total amount, R10 000 is up for grabs for the winners of the 22 km route. Competition at the front of the field is expected to be fierce.

Already in the starting line-up is current South African long distance trail champion Lucky Mia, as well as speedster Michael Bailey and Zimbabwean-born trail legend Bernard

Rukadza.

Managed by one of South Africa’s leading trail running events specialists, Wildrunner, all participants can expect well-marked routes and a fun day out on the trails – whether racing or not. “We are thrilled to be managing the Peace Trail Runs and being part of the team putting the Cape Town Marathon and South Africa firmly on the international running stage,” says Owen Middleton, managing director of the organisers.

“Without a doubt the prize money is going to draw the top names in trail running in South Africa and beyond and we look forward to an exciting race.”

Leading the drive to get the marathon on the list of internationally accredited and recognised events is South African running legend and Olympic medallist, Elana Meyer and former Springbok captain, Francois Pienaar. Trail run entries are limited to 400 runners per route and will close on 5 September or when the race fills up. Of the available entries, 50 on every route will be reserved as charity entries at a higher fee, with funds going to the World Wide Fund for Nature SA (WWF-SA) Run for Nature initiative.

Zimbabwean-born trail legend Bernard Rukadza will also compete in the newly structured trail run forming part of this year’s Cape Town marathon.
