Bitou baritone scores scholarship in Germany XCITEMENT has been running high since news landed that local Plettenberg Bay opera singer Mike Bhayibhile has been awarded a prestigious scholarship to the Berlin Opera Academy. Over a strong black coffee at my house in Kwano, the singer couldn’t hide his delight as he sat down to tell me all about it. Significantly, his recorded concerts for this year’s virtual Plett Arts Festival played a pivotal role, having served as vocal audition in Berlin. Mike, 40, was born in Mdantsane, East London. His family moved to Plett in 1998 in search of greener pastures. He completed his school career at Murray High, and by this time the young Mike was already hooked on classical music. He did anything in his power to learn more about various genres.

He enrolled for a Bachelor of Music at Fort Hare University and has been working as a choral coach in many Eastern Cape high schools. Other feathers in Mike’s cap include his contribution to the OR Tambo Choral Festival and to various tertiary institutes, and in 2017 his choir collaborated with five-time Grammy Award winners Ladysmith Black Mambazo at Fort Hare. Plett Tourism organised its first-ever virtual Arts Festival this year and Mike was part of the line-up. An intense rehearsal period during lockdown led to the performance of two concerts alongside Dr Lisa Engelbrecht, principal vocal coach at the Opera School of the University of Cape Town. The recitals, live-streamed from St Peter’s Church in Plett, featured Dr Engelbrecht as so-

prano and pianist, and Mike’s superb baritone. The festival, themed ‘La Vida Local’, ran from June 19 to July 2 and afforded home-grown artists the chance to shine. It’s at festivals like these that artists such as Mike gets noticed, and the next thing you know… bam, man goes to Berlin! We are all super excited for Mike, but to make this golden opportunity a reality, he needs more funds. The double scholarship awarded to him only partially covers tuition and accommodation, and he’s now tasked with raising funds for a tuition deposit, visa applications, and travel expenses. If you can contribute, go to www.backabuddy.co.za/mike bhayibhile or contact Mike directly on 067 760 4486. You go, Mike - take that Plett Feeling to the world!

Upcoming Plett Open Gardens - a special outdoor experience OCAL garden lovers can look forward to the perfect antidote to months of isolation when they have the opportunity to get out and view magnificent local gardens. The ninth Plett Open Garden Day, on Saturday November 14, will again showcase four lovely Plett gardens, to be viewed against the backdrop of spectacular mountain, lagoon, and ocean views. This ever-popular event always attracts a large number of visitors from all along the Garden Route. Last year, despite a nasty wind, over 250 visitors enjoyed the day, contributing R40,000 to the Plett Animal Welfare Service (PAWS). Says organiser Marsja HallGreen: “I am happy and relieved that we are able to host the event again this year, especially after the cancellation of other PAWS fundraising activities during lockdown.” Ouland Royale - a firm favourite on the garden day route - again hosts the PAWS plant and cake sales. A variety of affordable plants donated by local nurseries will be on offer, while the cake sale is always a winner, with a selection of the most tempting home-baked cakes, scones,

tarts, and biscuits. A special feature of this year’s cake sale is a spectacularly decorated Christmas cake that will take pride of place alongside some well-priced mini-Christmas cakes, ideal as gifts. The perfect stopover between gardens, Ouland will serve Wilja’s fabulous scones and tea throughout the day. Ouland Nursery, with its large selection of indigenous plants, shrubs and trees, is also a great attraction. “Over the years, I’ve found that many of Plett’s most beautiful gardens have been created on steep inclines to make the most of the views. While this makes for most interesting multi-levelled gardens, it also means that visitors have to contend with steps and inclines. “This year is no exception, so please wear comfortable shoes, use walking sticks, and take extra care,” says Marsja. Featured gardens are: Horley Garden, 35 Turnstone Crescent, Whale Rock Ridge The most important role of this large indigenous garden is attracting birds and offering a refuge to small wildlife. A sloping lawn leads down to several short pathways between indig-

enous trees, to provide access to lower areas. The garden is almost entirely wild, with pockets of colourful plantings. The kitchen garden with herbs and edible flowers represents the only formal section. Note: access is via a steep driveway. Gyltides Garden, Brackenridge (map at gate) This steep site with heavy clay, typical of this estate, presented challenges at the outset. Attention was given to the terracing, drainage and substantial soil preparation before embarking on planting. The brief for this charming garden with its great view over Robberg was cheerful and colourful. Halamandres Garden, 48 Beachyhead Drive The organic lines and modern architecture of this dramatic house and its breath-taking views offer a great backdrop for the colourful garden. Interesting forms and textures combine with old-fashioned favourites of neutral greys to tie this exciting coastal garden together. Lenahan Garden, end of Philippa Street, off Glennifer Street, Plett Central Stone stairways lead through

the lower meadowy garden. An unexpected tree fern is a guide to the upper natural garden which features impressive proteas, pincushions and indigenous flowers that attract birds, bees and butterflies. The roof garden was planted by the late, much-loved Les de Jager. “PAWS is grateful to everyone who made this event possible: garden owners, our generous nurseries, cake donors, our volunteers, Wilja at Ouland, and of course, the visitors supporting our garden day. “They all make a generous contribution towards funding our overall operating costs of about R80,000 per month,” says Marsja. This is a safe outing for young and old and all Covid-19 protocols will be applied. Visitors must wear masks and practice social distancing. Gardens are open from 10am to 4pm. Entrance stickers, at R120 to view all gardens, can be bought on the day at all the gardens and Ouland. Maps will be available at the gardens as well as at Barney’s Info Kiosk at The Market Square, from Monday November 9. Call Marsja on 073 645 9476 for further details.

Watch out for washed-up seal Budding Born in Africa surfers join forces to save marine life carcasses B Words & photo: Frikkie van der Vyver

POSTMORTEM PAINT: Sometimes carcasses are marked with bright spray paint to indicate that they had been sampled for research and need not be reported again

OVEMBER marks the start of the annual Cape fur seal pupping season, so beach users can once again expect to encounter many carcasses washed up along the Plett coastline. Preliminary research suggests that up to 45% of Cape fur seal pups born on Robberg Peninsula drown in the first month of their lives as a result of large swells. Such high rates of mortality prior to weaning are not unusual in fur seal pups. Young Cape fur seal pups cannot swim very well and are born with a black coat not yet insulated for survival

in the ocean. They spend the first three months of their lives in a rookery among the rocks and boulders of Robberg’s north shore while suckling rich milk. While waiting for their mothers to return during short foraging trips to sea, they form large crèches close to the water’s edge. Here many are swept away from their rookeries - particularly during periods of high easterly wind and swell. Most drown and wash up on the mainland, especially on Robberg Beach, but live ones are sometimes rescued and returned to the colony.

During previous seasons, up to 600 newborn pup carcasses were recovered along Plett beaches. In contrast, only around 50 carcasses from older age classes (i.e. yearlings, sub-adults, and adults) wash up annually, mostly from November to May with a peak in January. Although the majority of these carcasses wash up in an advanced state of decay, necropsy (animal autopsy) records of fresh carcasses can point out a variety of mortality causes and secondary symptoms. Breeding season is a stressful time for adult seals, especially older males that lose body condition as they spend a lot of energy on fighting to establish and maintain breeding territories. So it comes as no surprise that over 90% of adult carcasses recovered along Plett beaches during past breeding seasons belonged to large males. Weaned yearlings are also known to struggle at this time as they learn to find their own food during their transition to adulthood. Please report seals on the beach, dead or alive, to Plett Stranding Network on 079 463 4837. Visit www.wild ocean.org.za for more info.

ORN in Africa (BIA) hosts a water-awareness programme each year to teach the 400 children in its care about basic water safety. “This has been a wonderful opportunity to connect with a local project called Adopt a Swimmer, which takes training further with experienced instructors,” explains BIA director Isabelle Brink. “Once they have developed sufficient water skills, we enrol them in an intensive swimming course with coach Chas Fraser, and theoretical sessions at Plett Surf Lifesaving Club with the main aim of training them to become lifeguards.

“Since most of the kids are only used to the pool and have no experience of the sea, they end up being terrified of the ocean. They struggle to understand its workings - reading the waves or detecting riptides,” says Brink. In an effort to solve this issue, BIA has been collaborating with the Learn to Surf Plett Development team since 2018 - with incredible results. “We started with eight timid children and now all of them have gained the confidence to stand up on their boards by reading the waves while being much less fearful

of the sea. Another important task, this time concerning the environment, was tackled mid-October, when surfing lessons could recommence after the interminable lockdown period. “Coach Clayton Bischoff explained the importance of keeping our beaches clean, so the surfers in training set out to collect a significant amount of nurdles around Robberg 5.” The dreaded nurdles so damaging to all forms of marine life needs no introduction: since leaking from a cargo ship off the Durban coast three years ago, these miniature components of all things plastic have been washing up on beaches from KZN to the Cape and can only be extracted by a sifting process involving thousands of man-hours [find out more on page 3 of the October 7 edition at www.cxpress.co.za]. • Plett Surf Lifesaving Club is offering a slush puppy for every 500ml container of clean nurdles collected by kids on Plett’s beaches. Visit www.plettsurf.org.za for details on the club, and call 082 436 6410 for more info on Learn to Surf or Isabelle Brink on 082 857 2345 to get involved with BIA.

People, places & events PLETT LASS TAKES THE LEAD AT GLENWOOD HOUSE: When one of the Southern Cape’s most prestigious centres of learning this week announced its leaders for next year, the head girl spot was awarded to Alex CarterJohnson - pictured here with her male counterpart and friend, Sebastian da Silva. As youngster Alex attended Plett Primary and apart from spending years representing her school and town on the Nippers beach, athletics field and on national level in the water-polo pool since Grade 8, she is also shining in academics, styling on the cultural front, and brimming with personality. Many congrats to parents Jacqui and Mark for raising such a proud Plett export product.

MAGNIFICENT MATRICS! This year, Born in Africa has 16 matriculants in its programme - and, says BIA director Isabelle Brink, “it’s just remarkable that despite incredible adversity, these students have managed to reach this important milestone in their lives”. The BIA matrics - who attend Plett Secondary, Outeniqua, and Wittedrift High schools - were treated to a farewell celebration on October 20 at Burnt Orange. “Normally, lavish gala evenings are hosted by their respective schools. But of course there is nothing normal about 2020,” says Isabelle. So with the help of friends and donors, BIA arranged a special gathering for these deserving youngsters. Pictured above are some of the Grade 12s looking fab and holding boards showing their year of entry into the BIA programme - some of them since Grade 1. Significantly, six of BIA’s Grade 11 students were selected as prefects at Wittedrift High for 2021 - one of them, Hlumisa Madolo, as deputy head girl. Flanking BIA educational coordinator Belinda Coram at top left are, from left, Delight Ngwenya, Yullynay Alexander, Hlumisa Madolo, Siyolise Modi, Jo Ann Mapondo, and Anastacia Olivier. Read the full story at www.cxpress.co.za and visit www.borninafrica.org for additional information or to donate to the cause. TRIPLE BOGEYS TOPS: The most recent Plett Fun Quiz, raising funds for Tanaka Foundation, was a bubbly affair with 14 teams competing for prizes and bragging rights. Above is the winning outfit, Team Triple Bogeys - from left, Gavin and Julie Harley, Sandra and Graham Brooke, and Terry and Nanette Cunningham. In joint second place were the Stealth Bombers and Late Entries teams. Organiser Barry Rickets thanks everyone who added zest to the evening, with prize sponsors including Bodyknots, Barrington’s, Helen Melon Properties, Barrowdale Nursery, and Thyme & Again. About R6,000 was collected for the animal-loving Tanaka folk, and Barry advised that the next quiz date is December 3, when funds will benefit differently-abled bowlers.

STRANDED ON AN ISLAND

Wayne takes a long swig and says: “Wow, that’s just fantastic!” Then, with a mischievous and flirty smile, she asks: “And how long has it been since you’ve had some real fun?” Wayne’s face lights up, and he beams: “Wow! Don’t tell me you’ve got golf clubs in there!”

Wayne is stranded on a desert island. One day, he sees a speck on the horizon. Not much later, out of the surf steps a gorgeous blonde woman, wearing a wetsuit and scuba gear. She comes up to him and asks: “How long has it been since you’ve had a cigarette?” “Ten years,” Wayne says. She reaches over, unzips a waterproof pocket on her wetsuit’s left sleeve, and pulls out a pack of fresh cigarettes. Wayne takes one, lights it, takes a long drag, and says: “Man, oh man! Is that good?!” Then she asks: “And how long has it been since you’ve had a taste of whiskey?” He replies: “Ten years!” She reaches over, unzips the waterproof pocket on her right sleeve, pulls out a flask and hands it over to him.

We are changing mindsets so our youth don’t have to wait for handouts We come from different backgrounds where some are more privileged than others and the political system is dividing the citizens of our beautiful town of Plettenberg Bay even more. Most dreams of young people in our communities die at the hands of alcohol and drug abuse, unemployment, teenage pregnancy, and lack of business opportunities. This has come to the attention of certain young people from Kwanokuthula, who want to come together and work towards one goal: mobilising and empowering young people so as to be able to stand on their own without having to wait for the municipality or government to come

and rescue them. The sad reality is that these people only pretend to care about the needs of young people when we are approaching elections. Youth For Change is a non-profit organisation and we use this name to identify our cause: not only do we seek to change the mentality of young people and how to think and react to certain situations, but also to address social ills concerning young people in Plettenberg Bay. It is no secret that young people dominate the population of this town and they are often the victims of unemployment, with very few holding degrees and diplomas. Our objective is to help

young people to start their own businesses with the necessary training. We want to assist them with learners and driver’s licences, help them with learnerships, applying for tertiary studies and seek funding to help students from disadvantaged backgrounds to enter institutions of higher learning, provided that they meet all the minimum requirements. We are also identifying houses of elderly people to clean and paint with the help of our volunteers. We do music workshops for local artists and DJs and assist them with registering their work and their branding. In a move to recruit more young people we are

doing cleanup campaigns. Our next gathering is on November 7 at USave in Kwanokuthula and this is an open invitation for everyone to come and join us. We would like to explore other avenues such as street soccer, as soccer is the best-loved sport among our young people. This initiative is not for individual benefits, but to better the lives of young people through upskilling. We are currently working on a zero budget as no funding has yet been secured. If you are in a position to help young people to better themselves, please get in touch with me on 082 887 1636 or email sithejuju@ gmail.com for more info. Sithenkosi Bobani, Plett

GETTING IT DONE: Youth For Change organisers are Sithenkosi and Okuhle Bobani, Avela Bongoza, and Siyamkela Tsomo; pictured above with them and Douglas Baartman of Bitou Waste Management, fourth from left are, in no particular order, volunteers Sifiso, Kamva, Sisonke, Bongani, Sam and Phakamile, all of whom helped cleaning the area around Kwano Clinic and the taxi rank to raise awareness about general hygiene, especially with the Covid-19 pandemic continuing to affect more people daily (by going to press, Bitou infections had suddenly soared to 64 active cases)

Make sure you buy dinkum South African products to boost our country’s economy Are you asking yourself how you can help South Africa get back on its economic feet? Well it’s actually quite easy to give the country a financial boost - or should I say, it used to be! Making it a much more difficult feat these days is the fact that greed and corruption are running rampant. In the bad old Apartheid days, the government used to push the slogan BUY SOUTH AFRICAN. And all races across our rainbow nation put their shoulders to the

wheel to do just that. Buying South African products created jobs. The effects of this had many further spinoffs, which included that the country produced more products for export. Why is it no longer so easy to buy South African products? Well, let me explain it like this: all countries have their own personal barcode which begins with a numeral. Ours is ‘6’. ISO 2000 and 2001 state that the barcode can be reduced by up to 40% top

to bottom. It is, however, illegal to reduce the bar from left to right. And every label on every tin or bottle or any other product, should carry a 6-barcode on the product if it is South African. Sadly, if you go into a store to purchase an item today, you may well find a 6-barcoded item made in, say, China or any other country around the world. It would appear that other countries get to use our South African barcode by adding ‘product of South Africa’, or ‘produce of

the RSA’. These products are perhaps imported into South Africa using our barcode, and brought into the country in bulk. Walk into any store anywhere in the country and you will be lucky to find more than 35% of goods that are actually locally produced. Many of the other products displayed are not South African and simply piggybacking on our 6 barcode number. This is not helping South Africa. ‘Buy South African’, Plett

Calling all educators, active and retired I run a pre-school in Plettenberg Bay and regularly come across children who need assessment or display baffling behaviour. Often, educators and parents do not have all the answers and need a specialist to assist. Being a small town, Plett only has a few such professionals residing here, but their rates are in most cases unaffordable for most of our parents. We are therefore obliged

to make use of government services in Knysna or George. This often entails long waiting periods and transport costs, which is far from ideal when the child should be helped swiftly during this important developmental phase. I would like to meet with interested active and retired professionals - child psychologists, play therapists, occupational therapists, and others - to form

a loose alliance of educators. I envisage having a quick telephonic chat to an expert who would be able to point us in the right direction, or even help us with reduced rates. This alliance would not only assist students and staff at my school but other Early Childhood Development (ECD) facilities in our area too, for the benefit of our small children! Di van Eeden, Plett

(ECD is the phase between birth and the school-going age, when children establish their foundational cognitive abilities, attitudes and skills, preparing them for primary schooling and the rest of life. Pre-schools or crèches play a pivotal role during this phase, so if you are in a position to assist, please call Di on 082 772 0191 or email diane@ woodenwonders.co.za with your details and suggestions.- Eds.)
