Grabouw verloor steunpilaar

ANNETTE THERON

’n Onselfsugtige man, wie se deur altyd vir gewone inwoners in nood oopgestaan het, se dood sal ’n tasbare leemte in Grabouw agterlaat.

Dít is hoe inwoners Manie Damon beskryf het ná hy Sondag (9 Junie) in die vroeë oggendure op 43-jarige leeftyd aan hartversaking oorlede is.

Damon het diep spore in die plaaslike politiek getrap. Hy was streeksverteenwoordiger van die ANC in die Overberg en lid van die WesKaapse uitvoerende komitee.

Dié gebore Grabouwer het egter reeds in die vroeë tagtigerjare as werknemer by Applewaithe betrokke geraak by vakbonde, sê Paulus Julies, sy boesemvriend.

Damon was in 1990 verantwoordelik vir die stigting van die South African Agriculture Paper Printing Allied Workers Union (SAAPPAWU), wat landwyd uitgebrei het en vandag

by Cosatu geaffilieer is. Hy het in 1995 in die Oorgangsraad begin dien, daarna was hy raadslid in die Theewaterskloof en uiteindelik ook in die Overberg-distriksmunisipaliteit.

Hy het die afgelope drie jaar met sy gesondheid gesukkel. Boodskappe van medelye en skok het gister uit alle oorde ingestroom en op sosiale netwerke is hy herhaaldelik beskryf as ’n man na wie ’n mens kon opkyk.

“Hy het nooit toegelaat dat politieke geskille sy kiesers nadelig beïnvloed nie,” het Christelle Vosloo, voorsitter van die DA-kiesafdeling in die Theewaterskloof gesê. “Die DA het met leedwese kennis geneem van

“Met sy afsterwe was hy nie ’n lid Manie gestroom ten opsigte van plaasuitsettings, onbillike afdan- van die huidige raad nie, maar hy kings en onderhandelinge met plaas- was ’n gerespekteerde en sterk politiboere en sy deur het altyd oopge- kus wat sy gemeenskap met onderskeiding gedien het. Sy dood laat ’n staan, selfs op sy siekbed.

“Hy was iemand wat nooit kwaad leemte en ons betuig ons meegevoel

aan sy naastebaandes.”

Anthony Appel, lid van die uitvoerende komitee van die ANC in die Overberg wat Damon in 1993 ontmoet het, sê Damon was ’n kenner van munisipale en arbeidswetgewing en het kliphard vir die regte van plaaswerkers geveg.

Damon het in die Groenland-gebied grootgeword en in Grabouw skoolgegaan. Hy is in die laat tagtigerjare met Henrietta getroud en twee kinders, Ashley (24) en Madelein (19) is uit die huwelik gebore.

Eerskomende Saterdag word ’n diens by Damon se huis in Grabouw om 07:30 gehou en om 08:30 by die Nuwe Apostoliese kerk in Pineview in Russelstraat. ’n Huldeblyk aan Damon sal Donderdag 13 Junie om 18:30

by Hoërskool Groenberg gehou word.

) Verskeie gemeenskapsorganisasies, onder meer die vroue en jeug van die VG Kerk, WE CAN en verskeie ander rolspelers beplan op 15 Junie ’n vreedsame optog met plakkate en baniere vanuit Bergsig na die Theewaterskloof munisipale kantore. Die hele proses – van die begin van die optog tot die oorhandiging van die memorandum – behoort nie langer as ’n uur en ’n half te duur nie. Die optog sal om 09:00 begin en teen 10:30 klaar wees.

Die doel van die optog is om ’n memorandum aan die burgemeester van die Theewaterskloof Munisipaliteit, raadsheer Chris Punt, te oorhandig in protes teen die onaanvaarbare hoë vlakke van geweld teen veral kinders en vroue, misdaad, dwelm- en alkoholmisbruik, handelsure van drankwinkels en die onwettige bedryf van smokkel- en dwelmhuise deur individue, wat in baie gevalle tot misdaad aanleiding gee.

Die negatiewe impak wat dit het op die gemeenskap, huwelike en die gesin is eenvoudig onbeskryflik. In die memorandum sal duidelike eise vir optrede deur die munisipaliteit, die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens en die departement van justisie teen hierdie sosiale euwels gevra word.

Enige rolspelers en lede van die gemeenskap word genooi om deel van hierdie optog te vorm sodat die besorgdhede ten opsigte van bogenoemde duidelik gemaak kan word.

Die optog sal Saterdag 15 Junie om 09:00 vanaf die VG Kerk in Sterlingstraat, Bergsig begin.

Gemeenskapsorganisasies, kerke, individue en almal wat die saak op die hart dra word gevra om deel van die optog te vorm. Die gedagte is om nie die optog te verbind aan een spesifieke organisasie of kerk nie, maar as ’n duidelike stem vanuit die gemeenskap. Ons versoek ook dat elke organisasie ’n banier met slagspreuke sal saambring. Indien u verdere inligting verlang, bel ds. Geromé Haupt by 082 937 3862 of 028 212 3284. ) Matrieksertifikate van die 2012 NSS-eksa-

Court manager dies in taxi accident The court manager of the Hermanus Magistrate’s Court, Pamela Wendy Mgujulwa, died in a taxi accident on the N2 on Sunday night 2 June.

She was travelling to Hermanus from her home in Mandalay – a suburb in Cape Town – when the taxi hit a truck that had jack-knifed at Pik se Draai near Orchard Farm Stall.

Mgujulwa was appointed as the court manager at the Hermanus Magistrate’s Court, to which criminal cases would sometimes be referred from Caledon, on 1 December 2009. She was also part of the Department of Justice’s Western Cape regional management team.

Hishaam Mohamed, regional head of the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development, says she left an indelible mark on the department over the past four years.

The late Pamela Mgujulwa “We are all in shock about the sudden demise of our dear colleague and friend, especially the staff of the Hermanus Magistrate’s Court,” says Mohamed.

Case goes ahead despite plea ANNETTE THERON The state rejected a guilty plea in the Anene Booysen rape and murder case after charges were put to Johannes Kana, the accused, on Monday 3 June.

National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) spokesperson Eric Ntabazalila said after the charges were put to Kana, he pleaded guilty to murder.

“His lawyer read out a statement which outlined what happened on the night Anene Booysen was raped and murdered,” Ntabazalila said.

He added that, as the state, they rejected the plea of guilty, “because our

facts do not correspond with what was in his statement. His statement does not give a full version of what transpired at the scene of the crime.”

Ntabazalila said that presently there are no other suspects.

“Kana is the only accused person in this case.

However, if new information comes out during the trial, the state and the police will not ignore it.”

The case has been postponed to 9 July for the Director of Public Prosecutions in the Western Cape, Advocate Rodney de Kock, to decide whether the case would be tried in the regional or high court.

Margaretha Steyl, senior administration officer and acting court manager at the Hermanus court, who worked with Mgujulwa for three-and-a-half years, described her as a very quiet person who was very committed to her job. “She did not stay in Hermanus but in Mandalay near Cape Town, and went home over the weekends.

“She was on her way to Hermanus and work on Monday when this incident happened. She will be remembered fondly by all staff members. We loved her dearly and miss her terribly,” says Steyl.

“Our deepest sympathies and condolences are extended to Pamela’s bereaved family and children, Bandile and Andisiwe,” says Mohamed.

Steyl says a date for the memorial service still needs to be confirmed.

Winelands toll project on hold by order of court The South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) cannot, for the moment, take any steps towards implementing plans for the N1/N2 Winelands Toll Highway Project.

Upon application by the City of Cape Town, the Western Cape High Court recently granted an interdict that compells Sanral to pause any such plans.

Councillor Brett Herron, committee member for transport, roads and stormwater in the City of Cape Town, said the municipality also argued for an order that Sanral be compelled to provide a number of documents which formed part of Sanral’s decision-making process, but which they have refused to provide to date.

The City was successful in this application too.

Should Sanral be successful in the implementation of the toll road, motorists using the N2 would pay toll fees at three toll plazas between the R300 interchange in Bellville and Bot

River.

In the 9 April issue of the Gazette, Alderman Chris Punt, executive mayor of Theewaterskloof Municipality, expressed the concern of many local residents who fear the impact toll plazas between Cape Town and Bot River might have on the local economy.

Herron said the court has granted the City’s application for an interdict pending the final determination of the City’s previous court application for a review of the toll project. “The City’s people and its economy simply cannot be burdened by unnecessary toll roads. Sanral’s decision is one that affects us all, but that will have a particularly profound effect on the poorest and most vulnerable groups that call Cape Town home.”

Drinking water still investigated ANNETTE THERON The Riviersonderend Ratepayers Association received a letter from the South African Human Right Commission (SAHRC), dated 28 May, that states that they are busy attending to a complaint about the quality of the local drinking water. The HRC’s response will follow in due course.

The quality of drinking water in Riviersonderend came under the spotlight in March after the HRC received complaints from concerned ratepayers. Clive Sandenbergh, chairperson of the ratepayers association, said the complaint was lodged on the recommendation of Jaap Kelder, chairperson of the National Ratepayers Union.

According to Sandenbergh the complaint is based on allegations that sewage spills from Greyton and animal manure from dairy farms upstream from Riviersonderend polluted the Sonderend River from which water is pumped for purification into drinking water.

An official from HRC visited the town on 18 March to speak to residents and also to get the Water Board to test the water independently. Melanie Lue Dugmore, provincial manager of the HRC in the Western Cape, confirmed the HRC’s investigation and the site inspection which was held earlier this year. “The matter is still under investigation by the commission and therefore it is not at liberty to provide detailed reports on ongoing investigations to the media, as this may compromise ongoing investigations.”

Sentrum vier 3 jaar ANNETTE THERON Die Caledon Christensentrum het op Sondag 2 Junie sy derde bestaansjaar in Caledon gevier.

Pastoor Gert Visser van dié gemeente sê hy is dankbaar vir die afgelope drie jaar, veral vir die wyse waarop hulle strategies in die dorp gebruik is.

“Ons het nie net ’n gemeente-visie nie, maar ’n Koningkryk-visie en ’n passie om regtig die gemeen-

skap te bedien op geestelike vlak,” sê Visser.

“Ons eer die Here vir die vele getuienisse van genesing en finansiële wonderwerke wat die afgelope drie jaar plaasgevind het onder gemeentelede.”

Visser is dankbaar vir elke gemeentelid se bydrae tot die groei van die gemeente.

Tydens die aand se program het ’n dansgroep die gemeente met dansbewegings bedien.

Talented youngsters on stage Young Bredasdorp singer Keylin Marais won a scholarship for a year’s study at the Cape Music Institute in the recent Artscape Cape Agulhas Talent Search.

The competition, presented in collaboration with the Cape Agulhas Municipality and the All Saints Anglican Church, focused on the youth of the broader Overberg region. Keylin’s scholarship was sponsored by Camillo Lombard.

The talent search resulted in an exciting semi-final round on 17 May in Bredasdorp.

Leading up to the concert on Thursday 30 May, the local Christian Leaders Forum invited the community to join them for a service to heal the community and bring it to wholeness. The service commemorated the life of Anene Booysen and reflected on the continuous struggle against drugs, abuse, crime, unemployment and related social problems with which locals have to deal.

The finalists chosen to perform at the gala concert on Friday 31 May at the Albert Myburgh School Hall were the Future Dance Group from

The young people of Bredasdorp who performed in a recent talent search competition that highlighted the social ills in society.

Guest appearances at the gala con-

cert included dancers from the Cape Town City Ballet and Camillo Lombard.

The winners were Anver January, Keylin Marais, the Riverside Male Voice ensemble and the Future Dance Group. The winners received R500 each from Artscape, as well as other prizes such as microphones and CD players, sponsored by local businesses in Bredasdorp.

berg Blue Crane Group, are Maureen Steyn from Caledon and Carole Doggrell from Greyton.

The lucky draw was held at Gabbiano, and R9 235 was donated to the group.

Mike D’Alton, chairperson of the Overberg Blue Crane Group and a farmer in the Bredasdorp area, said the money will be used for a stand at the Caledon Country Fair in September, and for paying annual expenses.

D’Alton said the group broadened its scope by including all threatened bird species.

“We often help out with vultures and other raptors, and because funding is so difficult to find, we have added other bird species.”

He also said that they are looking at working together with other groups with bird species’ interests at heart.

Linda Farenhem, chairperson of Caledon Tourism, thanks Mel and Dale for their generous donation, as well as all the community members who bought raffle tickets in support of the Blue Crane Group.

ook jou drank by ons nuwe Top Liquormarket wat vandag sy deure oopmaak.

Gee 'n kort oorsig van die besigheid.

OK Value is deel van die Shoprite Checkers groep. Dit beteken goeie kruideniersware-lyne kan teen goeie pryse aan ons kliente gelewer word.

Vars gebak, vrugte, groente en die slaghuis kleur die prentjie verder in.

Mens kan amper sê ons het ons eie Checkers op die dorp.

Hoekom het julle besluit om die besigheid te begin?

Kleinhandel is ons passie. Ons was albei voorheen betrokke by Pick n Pay, toe by Spar. Na jare in die kleinhandel bedryf het ons besluit die tyd is reg om ons eie besigheid te begin – risko en geleenthede gaan hand aan hand.

Ons beleid: Ons wil terugploeg in die gemeenskap en daarom is ons afhanklik van plaaslike ondersteuning. Ons koop ook produkte plaaslik uit die gemeenskap.

Hoekom moet iemand julle besigheid kies bo jul mededingers?

By OK Value is ons 'n een-stop winkel vir al ons kliënte.

Jy kan alles hier koop – van lugtyd, lotto en krag, jou kruideniersware, vars groente en vrugte, vleis – en nou

Het julle 'n mentor?

Ons het so baie geleer van besigheidsmense en kollegas met wie ons paaie in die verlede gekruis het en dit wat ons geleer het, pas ons elke dag toe om daarna te streef om ons besigheid ‘n sukses te maak.

Waarom Caledon?

Ons is 'n gebore plattelanders en 'n dorp soos Caledon lê ons na aan die hart. Die interaksie met mense op die platteland is meer persoonlik, wat ons in staat stel om ‘n meer persoonlike diens te lewer.

Caledon, before and after the mall

Oorlewing Met die uitloot van twee skilderye deur bekende plaaslike kunstenaars, het inwoners van die Theewaterskloof nie net gewys dat saamstaan ’n goeie saak ’n hupstoot kan gee nie, maar ook dat kreatiwiteit die antwoord vir die meeste probleme inhou. Die ekonomie druk al swaarder, maar uitdagings en mense en dinge wat hulp nodig het raak al meer.

Inwoners wat die geleentheid raakgesien het, het ’n kreatiewe manier gebruik om vir die Overberg Bloukraanvoëlgroep ’n handige bedraggie bymekaar te maak. Maar wat die meeste opval, is dat die bestuurskomitee besig is om aan maniere te werk om sinvol met ander, soortgelyke groepe saam te werk. Hulpbronne kan gedeel word en die gesag waarmee vennootskappe hul stryd stry kan groter word.

Die soeke na oplossings – nie net deur middel van geldinsameling nie, maar ook deur die daarstel van meer effektiewe werkswyses – is bemoedigend en kan as voorbeeld dien vir ander organisasies wat oorlewingsplanne moet beraam.

Caledon will never be the same again. Its history will, from now onwards, be divided into two distinct epochs, namely BVM and AVM. Before (the) Victoria Mall and After (the) Victoria Mall. By Friday evening 31 May 2013, the question on everyone’s lips was, “Was jy al by die nuwe mall?”

By the Saturday probably everyone who could crawl, walk, cycle or drive had been to the new mall. On 1 June it was raining heavily but there were hordes of people swarming around, most of them doing shopping, rushing for the “specials”; many were there out of sheer curiosity and excitement. There was something new, something big, happening in our village and everyone wanted to be a part of it.

One well-known “bergie” was apparently

under the impression that food was being given away for free and simply walked out of the main supermarket (or tried to) with a Styrofoam container filled with chicken, French fries and other goodies. He had apparently ordered the food and then tried, surreptitiously, to saunter out of the shop without paying. Alas, he was apprehended at the door and escorted back inside the shop. That tale will be told and retold for years to come and become part of local folklore. “Ja ouens, dai dag toerie niewe mol oopmaak toe wil ou **** mos somma ytstap met ’n bak kos. Yoh!! Hy’t sieke gedink hulle gierie kos viniet weg!! Hahaha!”

He must have thought that Christmas had arrived early this year.

Ramp needed at mall Yes, the new Victoria Mall is a nice new shopping area for the people of Caledon and surrounding areas.

Hopefully it will attract a lot of higher order shops which offer more choice for local residents.

However, there is one disappointing aspect that Harry Viljoen should consider rectifying.

While most of the mall area is accessible to people

Traudel ’n dame

in wheelchairs, the upper area with Clicks, Foschini and Crazy Store is not. This could be remedied by simply building a one metre wide ramp from the lower level up to the upper level near Clicks. It wouldn’t cost much, and it would make the mall that much more wheelchair-friendly, thereby improving access for everyone.

Ek wil julle net gelukwens met die pragtige artikel van Juanita Shepherd, getiteld “Napier-bekende word 87” in die Gazette.

Ek het jare gelede vir haar seuns, Carlo en John, gewerk en haar leer ken as ’n statige ou dame en jul artikel gee hierdie selfde idee deur.

Tannie Traudel is voorwaar ’n dame met styl.

Doen so voort.

TERESA COETZEE, Caledon

Ons is almal van God afhanklik Of ons glo in die Almagtige God of nie, ons is almal afhanklik van Hom. Hy is die Skepper van alle dinge en alles wat lewe is in sy hande.

Die mens is geneig om dinge in sy eie krag te doen, maar al dink ons ook in ons arrogansie dat ons so oulik is, weet ons dat ons nie een tree voor die ander kan gee as God nie met ons is nie. Ek het dikwels met ’n sekere man gepraat wat beweer hy is ’n ateïs, en elke keer wanneer ons gesels, het hy gesê hy soek na die waarheid. Ten spyte van sy ateïstiese oortuigings het sy gees uitgeroep: “Ek soek na die waarheid!”

In elke mens is daar ’n uitroep na jou Skepper, al wil sommige dit ontken. Ja, die asempie wat in ons is word aan die gang gehou deur God se hand. Dit is Hy wat jou hart laat klop en wat sodoende die bloed wat die lewe dra deur jou are laat vloei. As jy ’n hart uithaal uit iemand se liggaam, sal jy vind dat dit net ’n stuk vleis is. Daar is geen battery of elektriese kabel wat dit aan die gang hou nie – dis slegs God wat dit laat klop deur ’n wonderwerk. Juis daarom is ons so afhanklik van Hom. Hy kan enige oomblik daardie hartklop stop.

Ps. 121:5 sê: “Die Here is jou Bewaarder...”

Vers 8: “Die Here sal jou uitgang en jou ingang bewaar, van nou af tot in ewigheid.”

Die Woord van God is vol beloftes van die Here, waar Hy ons verseker dat Hy altyd met ons is.

Kom ons erken dat ons nie ’n enkele oomblik sonder Hom kan leef nie, en gee Hom al die eer daarvoor.

Pondering the complexity and mystery of time

All beings – ourselves included – have a sense of time, appropriate to its circumstances.

When (and if) one nears three-score-and-ten, one starts “feeling your age”. The average cat or dog, living to twelve or fifteen, shows the signs – those subtle changes in behaviour, the little oddities in habit and diet, the slowing down, the growing discomfort, the final decrepitude and death.

The main difference between us and them is the time scale, and here we encounter a metaphysical conundrum: do cats or dogs feel that their lives have been painfully and excessively brief, much briefer than those of us humans with whom they are so closely associated? What about the mayfly, that spends 99% of its life as a larva and only emerges for one final hectic day in which it reaches maturity, mates and experiences the onset of parenthood? Does it feel cheated, or does it go with the same sense of having lived a full and happy life, just as we do?

What about the Galapagos turtles, that live (if basking in the sun and occasionally am-

bling around after a blade of grass can be called such) for three or four hundred years?

Do they feel any differently about the duration and variety of their existence than we do?

Cosmic time is another thing altogether.

A friend who has wrestled with quantum physics (apparently no-one really understands it) describes the passing of time as “a matter of entropy, the way in all things simply unravel in little discrete fragments of time; the present does not exist, but past and future do and have. The life of any organism is simply an endless string of instants being “scanned” from beginning to end. And the end is entropy, whereby all natural processes run down irrevocably until the universe suffers heat death (or perhaps not).”

Clear enough? If so, you’re cleverer than the rest of us.

For the present, however, Nature has been at work in a decidedly non-entropic way: last week’s winter storm really set in with a vengeance. The northwesterly is funnelled

through a gap in the mountain behind me and in the night it seemed as if the roof was about to fly off. The next novelty was a flash of lightning and a thunderclap, almost simultaneous, they were that close. Then came the hail, mercifully smaller than those Highveld golf balls that maim cows, kill smaller animals, pock-mark vehicles and flatten crops. It still left sizeable drifts that lingered on well into the day. Of course we need the rainwater to help us through our longer, drier summers, but may we request that it be delivered in a gentler fashion, perhaps spread out a bit as in days of old, please?

Been learning about entropy in another way – older cars also tend to deteriorate and the bits they need to be kept alive are not

bought off the shelf. Some patience is required, much like in a marriage I think, but the pleasure still outweighs the pain.

Koue keer nie Classics Ysige koue weer en sneeu op die Sonderendberge kon nie musiekliefhebbers verlede naweek van die Greyton Genadendal Classics for All-musiekfees weghou nie.

Besoekers het dié dorpies ingestroom om na klassieke musiek van hoogstaande gehalte te luister.

“Elke jaar dink ’n mens dit sal moeilik wees om die vorige jaar se bywoningsgetalle en die gehalte van die konserte te verbeter, maar vanjaar het die aantal mense wat die konserte bygewoon het, met 20% op verlede jaar verbeter.

“Computicket moes vroeg sluit omdat drie konserte heeltemal uitverkoop is,” sê Coenie Visser, feesdirekteur.

En wat die gehalte van die

konserte betref, het mense wat die konserte bygewoon het, net die hoogste lof gehad.

Dit was veral die ATKV se galakonsert, met onder andere ’n onlangs gestigte Greyton Genadendal Gemeenskapskoor, verskeie bekende kunstenaars en die koor van die Universiteit Stellenbosch wat mense gaande gehad het.

“Die reën het uiteraard die gees so ’n bietjie gedemp in die sin dat min van die aktiwiteite wat vir die buitelug beplan is, kon plaasvind.

“Maar mense het gestroom na restaurante wat lewendige musiek, ’n kaggelvuur en baie rooiwyn gebied het,” sê Visser.

Wolpryse styg by laaste veiling

Strandveld-museum vol herinneringe SJ DU TOIT

Vir my is daar net twee soorte museums. Die een soort is morsdood en daaruit gee ek vinnig pad. Die tweede soort is museums wat lewe.

Nie noodwendig knoppiedruk-en-stemme-praat-lewe nie, maar so ’n museum en sy stukke praat met jou.

Lééf. Die museum van die Strandveld, op die voorste punt van Frikkie se Baai, val vir my in die tweede groep en daarom skryf ek graag ’n storie daaroor.

Midde-in die Strandveld se gure winter gaan gooi ek daar ’n draai en vir anderhalfuur neem die kurator my op ’n herinneringstog.

Die kurator, my gids, is niemand anders nie as alombekende Strandveldse historikus en skrywer Jan Fourie.

Jan het vir drie dekades in Gansbaai onderwys gegee en sy voorsate het in die kalkkliphuisies teenaan Gansbaai se baai gewoon

terwyl hy self boorling is van Napier, Strandveld.

Die huisie, so alleen op die baai se punt in Franskraal, (die naam was indertyd Frikkie se Baai) prikkel dadelik my nuuskierigheid. ’n Huisie wat herinner aan oudaagse vissershuisies oral langs ons kus, sit hier so onder die neuse van deftige huise. Jan vertel in die jare toe die staat, die Government Guano Islands by Dyereiland besit het, het die hoofman van die eiland, Frederick Andrews, die riet- en sinkpondokke gebou en daar oornag wanneer hy land toe moes kom. Dit was aan die begin van die 1900’s.

In 1930 is ’n sinkhuisie op die plek gebou en in 1950 die huidige struktuur van steen en sink. Dit het mettertyd Seevissery se eiendom geword, daarna Caledon-afdelingsraad en drie jaar gelede is dit deur die Gansbaai Munisipaliteit oorgeneem.

Dis ’n netjiese huisie met kombuis, voorhuis en twee kamers. Die bewaring en

restourasie van die unieke plekkie, is reeds ’n groot veer in die hoed van die museumraad se trustees. Vir die jaarlikse besoekertalle en groot skoolgroepe bars die plek heel uit sy nate. Fourie beduie wat hulle vir uitbreiding beplan.

Dis ’n stadige proses om deur die museum jou pad te vind. Op elke draai wil jy eers stilstaan en kyk en terugleef in die tyd. Die oorlogsjare se meel-siffies — eertyds volop in die koringwêreld van die Strandveld.

“As Ma meel sif, moes Stiena by die deur wag hou, om te kyk of ’n konstabel aankom,” vertel die kurator.

“Om witmeel te sif was ’n strafbare oortreding.”

Langsaan is die outydse swart Welcome Dover-stoof, met bekende potte en panne.

Naderby is ’n volledige “seperyter”. As kind moes ons elke aand die slinger draai om die room af te skei.

Daar is handgemaakte onderklere, boklere en ook swembroeke van die 1920’s.

Tuesday 11 June 2013

’n Mens wonder al die pad, hoe dié wonderbaarlike kultuurskat bymekaar gebring en in ’n baie korte tyd so netjies en sinvol uitgestal is. Elke vertrek is outentiek gemeubileer – volgens Jan Fourie met meubels wat geslagte lank “in bewaring” was in bruin mense se huise toe wit mense dit “uitgegooi” het.

In die ingangsportaal staan ’n parmantige ronde kantoorstoeltjie, afkomstig van die Clan MacGregor wat in 1902 by Marthaspunt vergaan het, en jare in besit was van Jose Newmark. By die stoel ’n Birkenhead-tafel.

Eertydse veldkornet De Villiers is ’n voorsaat van SD Fourie, Jan se vrou, en die familie het dit in bewaring gehou. In die volgende vertrek lyk dit nes ’n skeepswrakmuseum — daar is talle Birkenhead-voorwerpe, sommige deur Fourie self uitgeduik.

Elkeen wat in die geskiedenis belangstel kan gerus daar gaan kuier.

Die swak rand en redelike goeie vraag het wolpryse op die laaste veiling van die seisoen in Port Elizabeth (5 Junie) ’n hupstoot gegee en Cape Wools se merino-aanwyser het met 3% gestyg tot R110,31/kg (skoon).

Dit is bykans 26% hoër as die openingsveiling en 17% bokant verlede seisoen se sluitingsveiling.

Goeie pryse is vir die grootste deel van die seisoen behaal met die markaanwyser wat vir die grootste deel van die seisoen heelwat hoër as die vorige seisoen was.

Hoewel die rand ietwat van sy swakste vlakke verbeter het, was dit steeds baie swak teenoor die Amerikaanse dollar en ander geldeenhede, wat die mark ook gestut het. Die gemiddelde koers van die rand

was 3,3% laer vergeleke met die koers van die vorige veiling twee weke gelede.

Dit was ’n redelike groot veiling en altesame 13 973 bale is aangebied waarvan 99% verkoop is.

Die pryse van al die lang wol het gestyg, maar die medium kategorieë het die grootste stygings aangeteken.

Die gemiddelde skoonwolpryse van enkele lang, kamwoltipes (MF5) van gehalte was soos volg: 18 mikron styg met 2,3% tot R120,04/kg, 19 mikron verbeter met 4,3% tot R116,52/kg, 20 mikron verbeter met 2,3% tot R11,62/kg, 21 mikron was 3,8% hoër op R110,65/kg en 22 mikron styg met 3,7% tot op R109,74/kg.

Die eerste veiling van die nuwe seisoen is vir 21 Augustus geskeduleer.

Vaardigheidskool vier amptelike opening Die skool wat sy deure in 2010 geopen het as ’n vaardigheidskool, het op Vrydag 25 Mei sy amptelike opening gevier.

Die eregas van die dag, Donald Grant, minister van onderwys in die Wes-Kaap, het saam met Bertram Loriston, direkteur van die Overberg-onderwysdistrik, Andries Botha, skoolhoof, en die beheerliggaamlede die skoolterrein verken.

Elke klas is besoek, Grant het met leerlinge gesels en daar is met trots aan hom gewys wat leerlinge vermag het.

Die vaardigheidskool het ’n vier jaar-leerplan en leerlinge wat hier skool gaan is reeds twee keer op laerskool teruggehou. Hierdie tipe skole bied goeie opvoedingsgeleenthede aan leerlinge wat in hoofstroomskole sukkel.

Grant was beïndruk met die gees van die skool en glo dit was die regte besluit om hierdie skool ’n vaardigheidskool te maak. “Hier

kan die leerlinge wat dit nie in die hoofstroomskool kan maak nie, hulle unieke talente en vaardighede ontwikkel.” Grant het ook die werkloosheidkwessie aangespreek, en hoe opleiding in vaardigheidskole dit aanspreek, asook die uiters waardevolle bydrae wat dit tot die regering bied. Grant se afsluitboodskap aan elke leerling van Agulhas Vaardigheidskool was: “Maak die beste van die leerplan, maak die regte keuses wat jou lewe reg sal beïnvloed.”

Grant het die nuwe naamplaat in die voorportaal onthul en daarna is die gaste bederf met ’n vingerete wat voorberei is deur die leerlinge van die gasvryheid- en spyseneringklas, met die hulp van Arniston Hotel. Hierdie hotel gee baie insette by die vaardigheidskool se gasvryheidklasse. Hulle bied ook werk-opsies aan leerlinge nadat hulle hul leerplan voltooi het.

Die skool bedank alle borge wat gehelp het om die dag ’n sukses te maak – Arniston Hotel, Floraland, Spar Bredasdorp en Karin Events.

Die klub word tans gelei deur die energieke André “Die

Pous” Mackenzie met ’n hardwerkende bestuurspan.

Die klublede rig ’n spesiale woord van dank aan die twee afrigters, Paulus Kroukamp en Gielie van Wyk, vir hul opoffering.
