•INWONERS MAAK DRAAI OP DANSVLOER

Huis Wittekruin se "kuikens" bederf Inwoners van Huis Wittekruin op Vredenburg is Vrydag aangenaam verras met `n pretdag in die eetsaal by die ouetehuis. Dit is aangebied deur die nuwe voedseldiensbestuurder, Isabel Prins, en haar kollegas van Feedem wat besluit het om inwoners te vermaak met lekker musiek en `n dans-item.

Inwoners moes oorspronklik soos sangers aantrek vir die beplande verrigtinge, maar op die ou end het die meeste sommer net snaaks aangetrek. Isabel het ook die inwoners verras met haar musiekversameling, waaronder die bekende en beminde Chris Blignaut en sy Ou Ryperd, wat steeds `n groot treffer blyk te wees.

Almal het saam gesing en mimiek en die Feedemstaf het met heelparty bejaardes `n “draai op die dansvloer” gemaak. Almal het duidelik die interaksie geniet.

Isabel het sowat drie maande gelede die leisels as voedseldiensbestuurder by die ouetehuis oorgeneem. Sy het drie jaar gelede van Pretoria af Weskus toe verhuis en het hier by `n gastehuis gewerk, voor sy die nuwe taak aangepak het.

Sy is baie lief vir kosmaak en geniet die inwoners baie. In Pretoria het sy spyseniering vir troues en funksies gedoen.

Aan die Weskus hou sy aan om haar passie uit te leef.

Vir Isabel is dit belangrik dat haar ‘kuikens’, soos sy die oumense noem, gelukkig en tevrede is en dat hulle genoeg en gebalanseerd eet.

Wanneer die borde kos smiddae uitgegee word maak sy `n punt daarvan om rond te beweeg

tussen die tafels, omdat sy voel dat dit die enigste manier is om uit te vind wat hulle voor- en afkeure is. Dan kan sy ook sien wanneer iemand dalk die dag nie te goed voel nie, sodat ekstra drukkies uitgedeel kan word. Drukkies uitdeel is vir haar belangrik en bejaardes het begin om te `n drukkie te gaan haal wanneer hulle voel hulle het dit nodig.

Daar is `n noue samewerkingsband tussen Isabel en die suster-in-bevel om seker te maak dat inwoners se welstand goed gemonitor word.

Isabel beoog om in die toekoms ten minste een maal per maand `n pretdag te hou. Sy dink

daaraan om die volgende keer `n musiekvasvra te hou.

Die kombuis is ook baie betrokke by Huis Wittekruin se jaarlikse besaar. Sowat 90% van die kos wat te koop aangebied word by die basaar word in die kombuis voorberei.

Hulle is reeds besig met die beplanning vir `n mini-verkope op 31 Augustus, wanneer lekkernye soos kerrie-en-rys, kerrie- en gewone vetkoeke, hamburgers, vis- en lewerkoekies en nog vele meer bestel en afgehaal kan word. Fondse wat geïn word, word tot voordeel van Huis Wittekruin en sy inwoners aangewend.

Birding enthusiasts en route to spot wide variety

3

The West Coast Bird Club is very active in the area and has members from all West Coast Peninsula towns - from Velddrif, Hopefield, Vredenburg, St Helena Bay, Saldanha Bay, Paternoster, Langebaan, Jacobsbaai and as far as Yzerfontein.

The club boast of about 70 members who get together twice a month - one meeting at the West Coast Fossil Park where speakers are invited to speak on a variety of topics, mostly birding related but includes environmental and conservation issues.

The other meeting is outings to places of interest (read Birding Hot Spots!) as far as PiketBo-Berg and Aurora.

Recently the group visited the Riebeek Valley, an outing that takes place once a year. For the second year in a row it was bitterly cold and threatening rain all day!

������t of making compost in your own garden As a gardener one of the main chores you are required to do to have healthy plants is to add rich compost to your soil.

These days nurseries supply many different types of compost but at a price.

Many people cannot afford the prices charged and consequently their gardens suffer.

If you have garden which can provide you with plenty of green material you have all the materials required to start your own compost heap.

There are various ways to make compost, some people use plastic compost makers and those with larger gardens make compost heaps.

If you apply the techniques set out below you can use both methods to make your own compost.

How to turn your garden refuse into compost.

The ingredients required for any compost heap are leaves, twigs, grass clippings, straw, rotted manure of cows, horses or pigs, fruits and vegetables.

Do not add cooked food to the pile as this will attract mice and rodents.

When starting a compost heap there is an ideal size one should use. (If you are using a

plastic compost maker then the bin will decide the size.)

An ideal compost heap should be larger than a cubic metre and smaller than 5 cubic metres.

The reason for the size of the heap is to ensure that there is enough heat generated to assist in the breakdown of the various materials.

A compost heap that is too large will not allow enough air to circulate through the pile or allow water penetration into the pile.

The surface area of a compost heap determines how much water and air penetrates the compost heap.

The depth of a compost heap has a large influence on the compost heap. If it is not deep enough (approximately a metre) it will not generate enough heat and so the green materials in it will not breakdown.

When placing materials into your compost heap its a good idea to cut up or shred larger pieces of greenery into smaller pieces as this will assist in the materials breaking down faster.

In an ideal compost heap you should have layers of different materials more or less stacked in the following order.

The first or bottom layer of your compost

heap should consist of coarse materials such as thin sticks or twigs or thin branches from a hedge. The reason for the coarser material is to facilitate air circulation into your compost heap.

The second layer should be a mixture of grass clippings, leaves dry or green (preferably a mixture of the two) which assists in balancing this layer of the compost heap.

The third layer should be some soil, in some instances your lawn mower will pick up soil as well as grass clippings which will assist in the soil aspect.

The soil is required to add micro organisms to your pile. You can use soil from old pots where plants have died or otherwise use excess soil from your beds or wherever else you can find it in your garden.

In an ideal compost heap the next layer should be rotted cow or horse manure, this you can get from your nursery if you want to add manure to your pile.

Remember that raw manure attracts flies and could smell so look out for well rotted manure.

Its not imperative that you add manure but if you want really good compost you should do so.

The layers of materials listed should not be

excessively big. About twenty centimetres of each material is good. Once you have added all four layers to your initial pile its time to start again adding the same layers onto the top of the exisiting layers until the pile is approximately a metre high.

Once your compost heap is about a cubic metre in size it is time to start a second heap another heap.

Why another pile?

Building a compost heap is like cooking a stew. You don't add raw ingredients to a stew when all the other ingredients are half cooked.

Your work on your first heap is not yet finished.

Let the first heap lie for about six weeks and then turn it with a fork. This could be quite hard work especially as you have to turn the pile every few weeks until you have a good rich brown soil.

By the time your first heap is ready to use your second heap should be starting to take shape.

Continue making your own compost by rinsing and repeating the above process.

Everything you need for lofts

Loft storage is the perfect solution to store excess goods that you need to be kept safe and secure.

The advantage of storing goods in your attic is that it is readily available with easy access via the folding attic ladder. it is also a cost effective means of storing goods as a storage area of about 12m² and attic ladder costs around R15500.00. Renting a storage unit can cost you around R850 per month and its off your premises and not always conveniently situated to your home, and Wendy houses are not secure storage solutions.

LOFT LIVING SPACES The space in your roof can be utilized as an extra living space in your house. These spaces can be used for creating extra bedrooms and dressing rooms. Putting dormer windows in the loft space also creates great views from the roof allowing for great views from the elevated height. Lofts in attics and bedrooms have become very popular for extra bedrooms, study and extra storage space.

'n Fantasiewereld het Saterdagaand die matrikulante van Hoerskool Vredenburg begroet tydens hulle matrieksafskeidsgeleentheid by Togryersvlei, Jacobsbaai. Baie jongmense se droom is sekerklik die aand bewaarheid, want dit was lekkergoed en helder liggies en ballonne net waar jy kyk. Selfs die sjef het die inisiatief gehad om donut- en lekkergoedboompies te maak om by die tema te pas.

�����eg om oorlewing in Boland se liga-stryd

Bo: Ughan Niemand (vleuel) beur vorentoe met die bal, met 'n Vredenburg speler wat aan hom hang. Regs: Keanan Roman (no.8) van tuisspan druk eerste vyfer.

•George April HOPEFIELD: Die tuisspan moes die afgelope Saterdag tot diep in beseringstyd delf om hul Boland Swartwes liga-rugbywedstryd teen Vredenburg met 27 - 26 te wen. Die rustydtelling was 22- 19.

Hopefield veg tans om oorlewing om nie deligeer te word na 'n laer liga in die 2019-rugbyseisoen nie. Die span het Saterdag 'n bonuspunt behaal, toe Niel Carolus (kaptein en stut) in die 47ste minuut met brute krag oorgegaan het vir vyf punte. Hopefield wat tot dusver 'n nagmerrie rugby seisoen beleef, kan net hulself daarvoor blameer. Die span se verdediging is soms pateties, en daar word hopeloos te veel hanteerfoute gemaak. Spelers is by tye ook selfsugtig, deur te lank aan die bal te hang, pleks om die bal te versprei.

Hopefield wat ook verlede week vir Langebaan gewen het, moet al sy orige wedstryde wen om in die liga te bly. Komende Saterdag wag

'n omgekrapte St Helenabaai, wat die afgelope naweek teen Pella verloor het. Die Hopefielders se laaste twee teenstanders is Mamre tuis en Saldanhabaai uit.

Die span wat die afgelope Saterdag met die eerste helfde teen 'n sterk noordweste-wind gespeel het, was absoluut skitterend op die aanval.

Saam met die wind in die tweede helfte, het alles om te wen, egter die Hopefielders ontbreek.

Vir Hopefield teken Keanan Roman (agsteman) die span se eerste vyf punte aan. Doniel Cleophas (senter) druk twee vyfers en natuurlik Niel Carolus met een vyfer. Dean Gurah (losskakel) slaag met twee doel en een strafskop.

Vredenburg se Gherson Carolus (stut) het die eerste punte van sy span vir die dag aangeteken het. Ander puntemakers van sy span was Jason Barends (slot) Shavin Papier (senter) en Ruan Kleinsmith (vleuel) wat almal agter die doellyn gaan kuier het. Brandon Olivier (heelagter) was met twee doelskoppe suksesvol.
