Dis LENTE! Lentedag: Leerders van Idasvallei Primêr het gesorg dat hulle

met kleurvolle blommetjies by die skool pronk om die eerste dag van lente te vier. Dit was dalk te koud vir wit kleertjies, maar met die sonnetjie wat so lekker geskyn het, kon hulle seker nie wag om buite te speel nie.

S’Bosch SAPD wen wisseltrofee gri Wes-Kaap se ere-visepresident, Ernst Bester, het ’n wisseltrofee wat as die LtKol Ernst Bester MMM, JCD-wisseltrofee bekend staan, aan die beste SAPDstasie, landelike beveiliging, geskenk.

Dié eer het aan die Stellenbosch SAPD, onder leiding van ao Marius Williams, wat binne die Stellenbosch Cluster SAPD onder bevel van brig Dirk Mentoor val, gegaan.

Die klem het vanjaar geval op vennootskappe met eksterne rolspelers, waar Stellenbosch as gevolg van die hoë getal plaasinsidente, genoodsaak is om bestaande vennootskappe te verstewig en om nuwe vennootskappe te vestig.

Verskeie ander gebiede het goed gekompeteer met die SAPD se Stellenbosch-stasie, maar die konstante kommunikasie met die provinsiale kantoor en provinsiale misdaadvoorkomingseenhede om te help met die vlaag van misdaad in die gebied, het Stellenbosch die voordeel gegee.

Die genomineerde stasie is verantwoordelik vir 384 plase en kleinhoewes in die Stellenbosch-streek en is administratief verantwoordelik vir nog vier SAPD-stasies, insluitend Cloetesville (32 plase), Franschhoek (160 plase), Groot-Drakenstein (150 plase) en Klapmuts (179 plase).

Een streek- (cluster) operasie is per kwartaal beplan en uitgevoer om misdade te bekamp wat met koperdiefstalle, veediefstalle, die besit van onwettige vuurwapens en dwelms en drankmisbruik verband hou.

Tydens die optredes is die buurtwagte van Blaauwklippen, Polkadraai en Devonvallei,

GELUK: Die besonderse werk wat die SAPD Stellenbosch binne die SAPD Stellenbosch-gebied, onder bevel van brig Dirk Mentoor aangepak het, word hiermee erken. Tydens die oorhandiging staan van links Johan Keller (voorsitter van Agri Wes-Kaap se beleidskomitee: landelike beveiliging), lt-genl Arno Lamoer (Provinsiale Kommissaris), ao Marius Williams en SAPD Stellenbosch se gebiedsbevelvoerder, brig Dirk Mentoor. deel van die operasionele plan, tesame met die verkeersafdeling en die departement van wetstoepassing van Stellenbosch munisipaliteit.

Al ses sekuriteitsmaatskappye in die gebied vorm ook deel van die operasies.

Die doelwit was om die plaasgemeenskappe te betrek in die voorkoming van misdaad in die plaasomgewing, deur middel van die

skep van goeie kommunikasiekanale.

HIerdeur word bruikbare inligting oorgedra wat deur die SAPD gebruik kan word om voorkomend teen misdaad op te tree. Dit sluit in die gebruik van kommunikasiemediums soos Facebook en e-posfasiliteite om die landelike gemeenskappe op hoogte te bring van verdagte persone en voertuie in hul gebied.

Alles is nie pluis by Stellenbosch Shuttles nie MICHELLE VAN DER SPUY

Hierdie fiets is in die Cloetesville-area deur die Cloetesville-polisie opgespoor. Die SAPD soek dringend na die eienaar van die fiets. Hy/sy kan die ondersoekbeampte speurder adjudant-offisier Wiener Jacobs (Cloetesville-speurtak) by 0 021 809 5062 skakel.

Indien jy van plan was om van Stellenbosch Meter Taxis and Shuttle Service se dienste gebruik te maak, dink weer. Jy gaan dalk vir ’n ander tipe ride gevat word.

Stellenbosch Gazette is onlangs ingelig dat dié private pendeldiens, wat vermoedelik deur Marlon Timmie besit en bestuur word, kliënte se geld vat en dan nooit opdaag nie.

Luidens Timmie se LinkedIn-profiel is hy die eienaar en bestuurder van Stellenbosch Shuttles. Die pendeldiens word op Woza Online en Show me Stellenbosch geadverteer.

Timmie sê in die advertensies dat sy pendeldiens met al die groot hotelle, gastehuise en restaurante in Stellenbosch sake doen. ’n Bron wat verkies om anoniem te bly, het vertel hoe sy dogter glo deur Timmie om die bos gelei is.

“My dogter en ’n paar vriendinne wou met

sy pendeldiens Kaapstad toe gaan. Hulle het R1 400 vir Timmie se dienste betaal en hy het net nooit opgedaag nie.

“Wat vir my die ergste is, is nie dat hy mense se geld vat nie, maar dat hy mense in die steek laat.”

Timmie kon nie vir kommentaar bereik word nie.

Timmie se pendeldiens is onder ’n verskeidenheid van name gelys; Stellenbosch Sedan Taxis en Stellenbosch Shuttles behoort ook aan hom.

Nie een van dié besighede is by Dorpstraat 121, die adres wat op Show me Stellenbosch en ander webtuistes geadverteer word, te vind nie.

Luidens Cylex het een van Timmie se slagoffers ’n internasionale vlug gemis wat R3 800 gekos het om te herskeduleer. ’n Klag is by Stellenbosch-polisie aangemeld, maar die saak is na Bellville-polisie verwys.

Kind in rivier vermis

Security nabs two suspects

MICHELLE VAN DER SPUY ’n Kind het verlede week in Kayamandi vermis geraak.

Die kind het vermoedelik in die Plankenburgrivier naby Laerskool Cloetesville geval. ’n Ondersoek is Vrydagoggend geloods nadat een van die vermiste kind se maatjies die skool van die voorval ingelig het.

Volgens sersant Zenobia Sedeman van Cloetesville-polisie is die hondeeenheid en duikers na die toneel waar die kind vermoedelik in die rivier geval het, ontbied.

Teen Vrydagmiddag 12:30 het die duikers hul eerste soektog voltooi en geen teken van die kind gevind nie.

Last Monday night at around 23:45 while on patrol in Die Boord, one of ABC Security’s tactical armed response officers noticed two individuals in Saffraan Avenue, who were behaving suspiciously.

Officer Johan Wilkinson quickly approached the suspects and noticed the two individuals were carrying bags. He searched the bags and found screwdrivers, two knives and two balaclava masks.

The suspects were handed over to the police for arrest and interrogation.

Wen ’n lekker groen elektriese fiets!

Students enjoy some of the traditional dishes prepared by international students studying at Stellenbosch University.

The event is so popular that food sold out an hour and a half after the doors opened.

Maties eat their cosmopolitan hearts out Students and Stellenbosch residents recently turned up in droves to taste food from around the world at the biannual International Food Evening.

People queued in the pouring rain outside Academia Residence’s hall for the chance to experience the culture and cuisine.

The event was organised by Stellenbosch University’s International Office, which gives foreign students on campus the chance to showcase their countries’ most delicious traditional food.

Werner de Wet, head organiser of the evening, explained that foreign students form national teams who each set up their own stall.

Each stall is given R1 000 to spend on ingredients to create their national culinary masterpieces.

De Wet says this year’s food evenings have been the most successful so far. “When I started a few years ago, there were only 10 or 12 tables.

Now it’s gone up to more than 30.”

bread”. A popular treat at children’s parties, “fairy bread” is white bread slices completely covered in colourful cupcake sprinkles and butter.

Lapani Nkhonjera, a student from Malawi, said the evening was one of his favourites so far. “I love that we can all come together and celebrate our traditions and cultures.”

The Malawian stall provided an entire miniature meal for your tasting ticket.

Their bowl of traditional food included rice, vegetables and a tiny river fish native to the country.

Jane Paltian, a German student, said she not only loved teaching other people about her culture, but learning about everyone else’s too.

“It cannot be business as usual.”

Those were the words emphasised by Stellenbosch mayor, Conrad Sidego, when he addressed the public at a housing exhibition on Friday 22 August in Cloetesville.

The Innovation Village open day saw alternative housing structures, electricity and toilet systems on display. This expo afforded the public an opportunity to interact with the representatives and to see how these different options to the stateprovided RDP houses can speed up and possibly improve the standard and quality of the current government-issued houses.

“The purpose is to exhibit the available alterna-

tives, and to receive feedback from the public regarding these alternatives,” Christa Liebenberg, the Stellenbosch Municipal Manager said.

Liebenberg also explained that if the feedback from members of the public who were able to comment on the structures, was positive, Stellenbosch Municipality would be able to present this data to the national government, and possibly influence the current housing policy.

Sidego urged the public to consider the alternative possibilities. With almost 30 000 people on the housing list in Stellenbosch alone, and about 300 houses being awarded to beneficiaries per year, the need for faster delivery is paramount.

“This requires us to rethink our strategy and to implement extraordinary measures to meet the housing need,” Sidego said.

Beryl, the wife of the late professor Russell Botman received his award at the ceremony. To the right are UWC chancellor Archbishop Thabo Magkoba and the MC Africa Melane.

UWC honours its alumni Rectors and Vice-Chancellors were honoured at the inaugural Chancellor’s Dinner and Outstanding Alumni Awards Ceremony at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) last week.

The eight awardees – the late Professor Russel Botman, Professor Brian Figaji, the late Professor Jakes Gerwel, Professor Jonathan Jansen, Professor Nicholas Morgan, Profes-

sor Brian O’Connell, Dr Franklin Sonn, and Professor Derrick Swartz – were honoured for their outstanding achievements and dedication towards driving academic excellence in the sphere of higher education.

All recipients are UWC alumni who had gone on to become Rectors and Vice-Chancellors at various further education institutions around South Africa.

“Ons hoop die pret sal lei tot oop gesprekke rondom gestremdheid en die uitdagings wat mense met gestremdhede daagliks te bowe moet kom,” sê Monica du Toit van die Sentrum vir Inklusiwiteit.

Die sentrum bied Lostlisdag aan in samewerking met Dis-Maties, ’n US vereniging wat bewussyn van studente wat met gestremdhede leef bevorder.

“Ons wil graag hê dat mense vrae moet begin vra. Ons voel nie geaffronteer nie, want gesprekvoering is ’n manier om stereotipes te ondermyn,” voeg Sydney Barrington, Dis-Maties se voorsitter, by.

Deelnemers aan Loslitdag sal vanjaar tydens ’n Laduma-toernooi wys hoe goed hulle sokker kan speel - terwyl hulle geblinddoek is.

“Elke deelnemer sal kans kry om drie balle na die doelpale te skop,” verduidelik Du Toit.

“Ons hoop is dat die deelnemers dieselfde frustrasies sal ervaar as gesiggestremdes en meer sensitief teenoor hulle sal wees.”

Die Laduma-toernooi vind Vrydag vanaf 12:00 tot 14:00 op die grasperk langs die Rooiplein plaas.

Starting or buying a business?

Starting your own business takes a lot of effort; you create something that wasn’t there previously. It is hard to break new ground, but if you can pull it off, it gives great satisfaction.

There are many things to attend to when starting from scratch. Most important is to create a structure for the business. Part of creating a structure is to get suppliers for goods and services you need. So, if you are a manufacturer; where would you buy raw materials? Who would service your machines? etc. In retail you need wholesale suppliers for the goods you want to resell, suppliers of shelving, etc. But in all businesses you need administration and bookkeeping services and you need to determine what time of the year or month to perform certain tasks.

A friend of mine has a business that sells fishing, swimming and diving gear in a coastal town. He says in August, when fewer people enter his

Draw up your will in Wills Week As has become tradition over the past few years, members of the public will be able to have a basic will drafted by an attorney free of charge during National Wills Week from 15 to 19 September 2014. Attorneys’ firms throughout the country are participating in the National Wills Week project.

‘By ensuring that you have a valid will, you as the testator, can protect the interests of your loved ones and ensure that there is no delay in settling your estate after your death. It also ensures that your executor will act according to your wishes as set out in your will.

A valid will allows you to state who should inherit your assets and property, to appoint an executor of your choice for your estate and also a guardian for your minor children,’ say Law Society of South Africa (LSSA) co-chairpersons, Ettienne Barnard and Max Boqwana. ) Persons who have been recently divorced or widowed, or those who are co-habitating with their partners for some time, should also consider having a will drafted.

If you have been co-habitating with your partner, it is advisable to have a will to ensure that there are no competing claims on your estate.

) Similarly, unmarried persons – particularly those who may have a number of people that depend on them financially – should ensure they have a will in place, as several people could make a claim on their estates.

During Wills Week attorneys participating in the National Wills Week initiative will display posters with their contact details so that members of the public can make appointments with attorneys in their area.

V The contact details of attorneys participating in the National Wills Week project can be accessed on the LSSA website at www.LSSA.org.za.

Thumakele Gosa, chairperson of the IMBADU board of directors, speaks to some of the students.

Key stakeholders meet The Frederick Van Zyl Slabbert Institute (FVZS) for Student Leadership Development and Inkulufreeheid (IFH) from Stellenbosch University (SU) recently hosted an engagement in Kayamandi.

Invited guests and panellists included cllr Nompumelelo Hani, cllr Nyaniso Jindela and Vuyokazi Luxande.

The Kayamandi engagement was organised in partnership with IMBADU, Lokxion Foundation and IFH to establish means to create a rapport with critical stakeholders such as youths, local community members

and university students who are attending the key short course on democracy and citizenship.

The course is coordinated and presented under the auspices of Dr Lesly van Rooi, who heads the FVZS in grooming young dynamic leadership.

Minibuses from Kayamandi were used to ferry students around a few points in the area such as local shops, the Ikhaya Trust Centre and the Kayamandi Library.

Looking at the squalor of Kayamandi, some of the students could not help but conclude that Kayamandi residents either do not care or do not hold

their councillors accountable.

Zuko Mlonyeni, a guest speaker at the engagement, shared his own story.

“As a child of a migrant labourer, whose father was regarded as a single man despite being married and having a family, I have lived in various parts of Stellenbosch, including the farm houses in Jonkershoek and Lyndoch. I have lived in shacks and at least three of the hostels here in Kayamandi.

“The squalid conditions under which I played as a child have worsened even more than 20 years after the democratic dispensation,” he said.
