Dit is hartseer om ’n geliefde aan die dood af te staan, maar as jy nie eers weet hoe jy hom of haar gaan begrawe nie, maak dit jou hartseer net nog erger. Maar, daar is tog hoop omdat jy drie opsies het om te volg. Dit is wat die geliefdes van Koos Hyster, van La Rochelle-plakkerskamp, uitgevind het toe hy onverwags, vermoedelik aan TB, oorlede is. Lenie Heyns vertel dat hy (Koos) die vorige dag nog met sy medikasie, wat hy by die Klapmuts-kliniek ontvang het, sou begin. Maar die Maandagaand was hy in pyn. “Hy het net geskree en geskree van die pyn”, vertel Ricardo Engelbrecht, wyks- Ricardo Engelbrecht (links) staan vir Lenie Heyns by. komiteelid.

Hulp wel vir Koos gereël Kaptein Faith de Klerk, stasiebevelvoerder van Klapmuts-polisie, het Koos Hyster se dood bevestig en verduidelik wat gebeur het. “Wanneer ’n persoon aan onnatuurlike oorsake sterf, of sonder ’n mediese geskiedenis, word die lyk deur die forensiese afdeling vir ’n nadoodse ondersoek verwyder. Daarna word die lyk na die staatslykhuis geneem. “Wanneer ’n persoon aan natuurlike oorsake sterf, of die persoon het ’n mediese geskiedenis, moet die
naasbestaandes hul eie begrafnisondernemers in kennis stel om die lyk te verwyder. ”In die geval van Koos Hyster en omdat daar nie finansies is nie, het ek met Aubrey Solomons, begrafnisondernemers in die Paarl, gereël dat hulle die liggaam kom haal vir ’n armlastige begrafnis,” verduidelik De Klerk. ”Die lyk is wel verwyder en reëlings is met die naasbestaandes getref. Klapmuts-polisie het ook hulp aan die naasbestaandes verleen.”

Sheep thief caught redhanded A suspect was apprehended as he tried to get away with a sheep that was stolen from a farm in Muldersvlei in the early hours of Thursday 25 September. At around 01:10, a resident contacted Stellenbosch Watch (SBW) Officer Chris Koegelenberg to report a suspect on their property. Within minutes, the officer arrived at the address in Elsenburg where he spotted a man with a sheep near the main gate. Koegelenberg stopped and approached the man who could not explain what he was doing there. The officer contacted the Monitoring Centre to notify the Stellenbosch South African Police Service and the resident - who later confirmed that the sheep was stolen from the farm.
“The suspect was arrested by members with the local police,” said Stellenbosch Watch CEO, Antoon van Zyl, who also commended the resident and officer Koegelenberg for their vigilance. ) In the wake of the incident, Van Zyl advised property-owners to regularly inspect their perimeter security to ensure that there is nothing that offers criminals easy access. ) “From time-to time, walk around the perimeter and check the fence or wall for any weak spots or any objects – such as a bin – that can aid a trespasser to climb over or through. ) “Also check the property for anything that an intruder could use to break a window, door or lock or as a weapon,” Van Zyl advised.
Programme for safe schools The October school holidays started on Friday. The Western Cape education department emphasised that school safety during the holiday period is always a concern. “In order to protect our schools, as far as possible, from burglary and vandalism over the holiday period, the WCED’s Safe Schools directorate has arranged increased security at identified schools. “About 511 schools will receive either 24
hour security or will benefit from cluster patrols this spring holiday. The WCED is also working with various agencies to mobilise community support for schools. “We ask every community member to help their schools by reporting any suspicious behaviour in and around the schools immediately to the police. The best protected schools are those where parents and local communities help to look after schools,” says Debbie Schäfer, Western Cape education minister.

Esau won R15 000 and the senior category of the competition, after going up against five highly experienced finalists in a two hour mystery basket challenge at the state-of-the-art Unilever kitchens in La Lucia Ridge. His menu consisted of tuna tartare and seared tuna served with pickled mushroom, lemon pomegranate, crispy ham and carrot, followed by lamb loin, sautéed kidneys, broccoli sprouts with butternut and a camembert rice crème. Dessert consisted of olive oil parfait, kiwi sauce, compressed nectarine with meringue. Esau says preparing for a competition of this nature was challenging because you don’t know what you will be cooking with. “While practising, I cooked with all the proteins available, even rabbit, to establish the cooking times and techniques that suits each one the best.” On the day of the competition, contestants were each given a black box full of ingredients and had 15 minutes to plan a menu. “I used the philosophy of what grows together goes together. To be different and keep things interesting, I added ingredients that were unexpected into every course.” Esau says he hopes that winning the competition will earn him both recognition and a bit of fame “which is never a bad thing”. According to Esau, the most enjoyable part of the competition had nothing to do with the

Myra Francis, Johru Robyn and Lester van Stavel were the representatives of the municipality at the housing conference.
Municipality excells at conference The Stellenbosch Municipality featured as a key housing delivery leader at the International Housing Conference, Exhibition & Housing Awards, held from 28 September to 1 October 2014 in Somerset West. The municipality, who delivered 1 000 houses to 1 000 families in one year, also won the South African Planning Institute’s award for building communities in the Langrug informal settlement. Stellenbosch spearheads housing delivery through its dignified living programme. This year’s conference was held under the theme of “Affordable Housing Opportunities for Southern Africa”. Some of the key questions posed included: Is South Africa’s government subsidised housing policy sustainable? How can local authorities afford to sustain service deliv-
ery at an affordable rate to the consumer, and “Access to affordable land - what mechanisms are available?” The conference brought an international perspective and highlighted important issues related to the delivery of affordable housing. Stellenbosch staged an impressive exhibition stall highlighting its key successes and best practices. The municipality appeared alongside major cities such as Cape Town and Johannesburg as well as service providers such as Power Group and PPC Cement. Lester van Stavel, manager: new housing, housing project manager, Myra Francis and acting informal settlements manager and Johru Robyn represented the municipality at the conference.

Activities during holiday On Friday, learners and educators across the Western Cape celebrated the end of the third term and the start of the October “spring” holidays.
While schools are officially closed for the holidays, the work continues for many of the learners, educators and the Western Cape Government. The Western Cape education department and the department of cultural affairs and sport have collaborated to ensure that young people have safe places to go during the holidays, as well as learning opportunities. These programmes aim to keep our youth positively engaged, entertained and safeguarded. During the holidays there are a number of spring holiday programmes for Grade 12 learners, as well as various workshops and development programmes for the educators. Safe Schools and the department of cultural affairs and sports have also organised holiday programmes for learners in various communities at selected schools and MOD centres. The programmes were launched yesterday across all eight education districts in the Province. It is important that we keep the children, as far as possible, safe and preoccupied during the school holiday period. The Safe Schools holiday programmes and MOD Centres aim to provide a safe, fun and educational environment for learners during the day. At the Safe Schools holiday programme edu-
cational programmes on offer include important topics such as substance abuse, HIV/ Aids, sexual abuse and gender violence. The Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport has ensured that most MOD Centres are open during the school holidays. At each MOD centre coaches will be present for the different sport codes that will be on offer, and for adult supervision. Most of the MOD centres will remain functional during the school holidays and in instances where centres are grouped together under one school, learners will be informed. The centres will be open between 09:00 and 14:00 from Monday to Fridays, in stead of the normal schooling hours. Activities on offer at the schools will include: the different sport codes, art and culture activities and indigenous games. V From 6 - 10 October Pniel Primary School hosts volleyball and netball games at the Lanquedoc Sports grounds, from 09:00 - 12:00. V And, from 6 - 10 October, from 09:00 - 13:00, Rietenbosch Primary and Cloetesville High schools, have softball, volleyball and trampoline games set up on the school ground of Rietenbosch Primary. V A list of all schools that will be open for business is contained on the DCAS website: http://www.westerncape.gov.za/assets/departments/cultural-affairs-sport/ mod_school_holiday_programme_october_2014.pdf.

Fatima Festival open to all The then large Portuguese community of Stellenbosch started the annual Fatima Festival in 1987. It has since grown into not only one of the major annual events on the Stellenbosch social calendar, but has spread throughout the Western Cape and is celebrated at a number of venues around Cape Town. It takes place in early October, one week before another big event, the annual Blessing of the Fishing Fleet ceremonies in Cape Town. This year the Fatima Festival in Stellenbosch will be taking place over the weekend of 18 and 19 October. Though still keeping a strong Portuguese flavour and with (literally) bus-
loads of Portuguese fans coming from other parts of province, the festival in Stellenbosch is no longer confined to the Portuguese community and embraces all the communities. Thus, communities in Kayamandi, Cloetesville and Idas Valley have also been doing sterling work to raise funds for this year’s Fatima Festival, which is organised by St Nicholas Catholic Church. Diarise the event dates and join the festivities. The Fatima Festival has a religious grounding and a street parade on the Sunday morning from 11:00, but from then on, and the night before, it is all fun, fun and food, washed down with some beer or wine and dancing for the whole family.
of the level crossing safety awareness campaign. The ministers inspected the level crossings at Bergkelder, held an educational programme at Cloetesville Primary School and concluded the visit to Stellenbosch by speaking to the community at Kayamandi stadium. The campaign was hosted by the railway safety regulator (RSR). Peters has firsthand experience of the challenges motorists and pedestrians face at the Bergkelder intersection. She and Grant created awareness about the dangers of illegal crossings as some 119 lives were tragically lost at railway crossings in the Western Cape between August 2013 and August 2014, according to the RSR. Peters commented on the lack of vigilance and indifference to the dangers of illegal rail crossings and also urged the community of Kayamandi to get involved in the integrated development plan (IDP), where they, through the representative forum, will be able to represent the interests of the Kayamandi community. This was in response to a suggestion that the Stellenbosch municipality build a taxi rank in the area.

Sleutel tot sukses
DAWID MALHERBE Elkeen wat in ’n besigheid betrokke is, wil graag presteer en hê die besigheid moet baie suksesvol wees. Ons vra dus onsself af wat maak dat party besighede soveel beter presteer as ander? Die meeste mense sal sê die hoeveelheid geld wat die eienaar tot sy of haar beskikking het wanneer hulle begin, die deurslaggewende verskil maak. Maar alhoewel aanvangskapitaal ’n belangrike rol speel, is dit beslis nie die mees deurslaggewende faktor nie. Daar is dikwels besighede wat met baie kapitaal begin en tog misluk terwyl ander met bitter min kapitaal later baie suksesvol is. Wat maak dan die verskil? Ek glo die grootste rede vir sukses of mislukking lê by die eienaar van die besigheid se ingesteldheid. Beskik die eienaar oor die nodige wilskrag om deur te druk en nie tou op te gooi wanneer die inkomste die maand of maande baie laag is nie? Om aan te hou glo dat deurlopende harde werk wel uiteindelik vrugte sal afwerp? Wat is jy bereid om op te offer om
sukses te kan behaal, of anders gestel, watter behoeftes of begeertes is jy bereid om op die lange baan te skuif sodat die besigheid eers gevestig en winsgewend kan raak? Ongelukkig is baie van die take wat jy in jou besigheid moet doen nie altyd baie aangenaam nie, maar dit is baie nodig om sukses te kan behaal. Goeie raad is om jouself te beloon wanneer jy daardie take waarvan jy glad nie hou om te doen nie, eerste doen en afhandel. Verder is selfdissipline uiters noodsaaklik. Daar is sekere take wat sekere tye van die maand of jaar gedoen móét word, of jy tyd daarvoor het of nie. Doen jy dit nie, is dit soos ’n slang wat jou later pik. As jy nie teen ’n sekere datum van die maand jou rekeninge uitstuur nie, het jy nie geld teen die einde van die maand nie. Onthou dus wanneer jou motivering vir sekere take feitlik nul is, moet jy eenvoudig oorgaan tot aksie en dit doen. “Mind over matter” en “Just do it” is belangrike sleutels vir sukses.

Second round of vaccination on During April 2014 Western Cape Government Health (WCGH) in conjunction with the national department of health, vaccinated the first round of nine-year-old girls against the human papillomavirus (HPV). Each girl should receive two vaccinations: the initial vaccination and a follow-up booster vaccination. The follow-up or booster dose of the HPV vaccination is currently administered to all girls in grade 4 who received the first dose in April this year. The second round started on 29 September and ends 31 October 2014. Those girls who were not yet nine (9) years old during the first round in April, or did not return the signed consent form to their school, will now also have the opportunity to receive the vaccination. This small group (approximately 13% of the total group), will receive their booster shot during the 2015 campaign. Human papillomavirus is the virus that causes cervical cancer and the vaccination protects women from being infected by HPV and thus reduces the risk of developing

Western Cape health minister, Theuns Botha said: “We now have the opportunity to reduce this illness significantly. What is required from government is effective vaccination.

Minister for Movember Thousands of men are diagnosed with prostate and testicular cancer in South Africa each year, but there is still a stigma around these men’s health issues and men often find these issues difficult to talk about and avoid seeking timeous medical help, says Western Cape minister of health, Theuns Botha.

This year, to start the conversation about men’s health issues and encourage men to go for regular health checks, Botha will lend his support to the Movember campaign, which aims to change the face of men’s health by raising funds and awareness for men’s health issues, including prostate and testicular cancers. “We have several initiatives in South Africa which support women’s health, but men’s health is often overlooked as the issues that affect men – such as testicular and prostate cancers – seem embarrassing to talk about. “There is a definite need to make men more aware of their health and remove the stigma associated with these men’s health issues,” says Botha. “I support Movember as it reiterates the Department’s stance that testicular and prostate cancers do not have to mean the end of your life if they are detected early enough. “I would like to encourage South Africa to get behind the campaign and sign up for Movember this year.” Movember raises funds by getting men or Mo Bros – as supporters of the campaign are affectionately known – to sign up on www.movember.com, to grow and groom a moustache, or
mo, for the month of November and to get people to pledge money towards their efforts. Women can also get involved by registering as Mo Sistas on www.movember.com and by encouraging the men in their life to sign up and grow a mo, showing their support by pledging funds and opening dialogues about men’s health issues. The funds raised by Movember fund survivorship and research programmes that are developed in conjunction with Movember South Africa’s men’s health partner, the Cancer Association of South Africa (Cansa). These programmes provide men with the best choices and treatment options available. The rules are simple, once registered or reregistered (as required each year), Mo Bros start clean shaven on 1 Movember and grow a mo for the month, getting those close to them to pledge funds and support towards their mo, helping them spread Movember’s health messages. Mo Bros and Mo Sistas can sign up or reregister for this year’s Movember campaign on www.movember.com between 15 September and 1 November. Individuals, groups and corporates are encouraged to register on www.movember.com from 15 September 2014 and start clean shaven on 1 Movember.

Lückhoff-spelers reis na Nederland Twee o.15-sokkerspelers van die Stellenbosch-hoëprestasiesentrum en hul afrigter is uitgenooi om in Nederland ’n oefenkamp by te woon.
’n Leerder aan Hoërskool Lückhof, die middelveldspeler, Luke le Roux, en Aden Philander, ’n leerder aan Hoërskool Bergvliet, is deur Gerard Nijkamp, die tegniese direkteur van PEC Zwolle, uitgenooi om deel te wees van die oefenkamp. “Baie ander spelers het ook verdien om gekies te word, maar ongelukkig kon ons net twee spelers nooi,” sê Nijkamp. Jason Rhoda, wat die afrigter van die Stellenbosch-hoëprestasiesokkerspan is, is gekies om die
Die High Schools Cup is in goeie gees op Erfenisdag beëindig met Hoërskool Cloetesville se o. 19 seuns en meisiespanne wat oorwinnings beklink het. Die Cloetesville-seunssokkerspan het hul opponente, Stellenzicht Hoerskool, met 3 - 0 in die hoofwedstryd van die dag op Coetzenberg-stadion gewen. Cloetesville se nommer nege-speler, Theodore Willemse, het een doel, en sy spanmaat, Thomas Deudon, het twee doele aangeteken. Doele vir die Cloetesville-meisiespan is deur Alicia Willemse en Janice Smith aangeteken, wat die eindtelling tot 3-0 teen Lückhoff gebring het. In die res van die wedstryde wat ook gespeel is, is die o.17-wedstryd tussen Lückhoff en Stellenzicht deur Lückhoff met 3 - 1 gewen.

twee jong spelers te vergesel. “Ek is uiters opgewonde en baie geseënd om ’n geleentheid soos dié te kry. “Ek sal die meeste van hierdie geleentheid maak en ek beplan om die kennis en ervaring wat ek gaan opdoen, terug te bring, en te gebruik om die Stellenbosch- sokkeromgewing te verryk,” sê Rhoda. Die kamp sal in die Oktoberskoolvakansie plaasvind. Hierdie gulde geleentheid het hom voorgedoen ná Nijkamp se besoek aan Stellenbosch vroeër vanjaar wat te danke is aan die verhouding tussen die Universiteit Stellenbosch en die Nederlandse sokkerklub, PEC Zwolle, wat tans die Dutch Cup-kampioene is.

Living Legends project expands to Jamestown
The Living Legends’ sports development project is now also active in Jamestown. Weber Gedenk Primary School learners received specialist coaching in gross motor skills and life skills, and a week later Stellenzicht Secondary School also received life orientation lessons outside, using sport and activity as the teaching medium. “We now look forward to phase two starting in the fourth quarter, focusing on specialised coaching and talent identification,” said Kate Thompson from the Living Legends Project. “We are hopeful that phase three will start promptly in January with after school specialist coaching and school team sport training. We are also looking forward to starting our parent forums and more focused life skills and leadership sessions in phase two and three.” The expansion of the Living Legends Project to Jamestown was made possible with support from the Remgro Group.
The programme in the Stellenbosch (Cloetesville, Idas Valley and Pniel) area runs on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays with about 300 children attending one sport and one life skill development session per week. The vision of the project is to create moments of interaction where living legends will be nurtured and inspired to become leaders that make a difference in their own lives, in the lives of their families, in their communities, in South Africa and in the world. The aim is to nurture and inspire living legends through moments of interaction where children can develop skills, mature into leaders that embrace a culture of hope, take responsibility for their actions, think critically about circumstances, become autonomous yet participative decisionmakers, respecting themselves as well as others, living a balanced, simple and authentic life.
