Vier Jeugdag met vrolikheid JEUGDAG is Maandag gevier. Dit word onthou as die dag waarop die Soweto-opstande plaasgevind het. Ongeveer 20 000 leerlinge van Soweto het aan die betoging deelgeneem. Jeugdag dien as ’n herdenking van dié historiese gebeurtenis. Dit is ook ’n dag om dankbaarheid, respek en liefde teenoor die kinders van Suid-Afrika te betoon. Hier is die leerlinge van die Sonstraaltjie-dagsorgsentrum in Kathu baie opgewonde om Jeugdag saam met hul gesinne te vier. Foto: Benneli Olivier Van der Walt

Cricket unites youth ANGLO AMERICAN KUMBA IRON ORE’S Kolomela Mine is proud to partner with the Progress Cricket Club which is situated in Postdene, Postmasburg. The Kolomela Mine donated full cricket equipment to the club to support their vision of striving towards the promotion and development of cricket in Postmasburg. This opportunity also helps to keep the teenagers off the streets and away from alcohol and drug abuse. The club’s mission is to give young people in the Postmasburg community a chance to develop their full potential and reach higher levels in the game of cricket.
The Progress Cricket Club was established in 2002 and is proud of their values: true sportsmanship; integrity and discipline. The club is the only club that plays in the Kalahari Sub-union League from a disadvantaged community. The club won the B league in 2006-’07 and the 2005-’06 six-a-side trophy. In 2006, the club was the bronze medal winner at the Manne Dipico Premier Games that were held in De Aar and it is currently involved in the sub-union A league with eight other teams. Anglo American’s approach to community development is based on understanding the needs of
the local communities. In 2013, Anglo American reported 340 015 beneficiaries of sport, arts, culture and heritage projects with a global spend estimated at R68 372 817 (R6 596 000) which was 5% of the annual budget. Rusty Harmse, the chairperson of the Progress Cricket Club, said they really appreciated the support and assistance from the Kolomela Mine. “This will help us grow as a club and will give us a big boost to make our vision a reality. “We are open to all age groups and new members are always welcome, since our aim is to develop the youth.”
) STOLEN PROPERTY The Kathu police arrested two suspects on suspicion of stolen property. Sgt Benjamin Boorman was patrolling the Kathu area when he stopped a suspect vehicle in Brosdoring Street. The vehicle was searched and a Samsung plasma television was found wrapped in a blanket. The suspects were not able to give a reasonable account with regards to the ownership of the television. The two suspects were then arrested for the possession of possible stolen property. The case is currently still under investigation. ) The Kathu police are investigating a case of possession of stolen property after two female suspects were arrested on 6 June at approximately 13:00 at the Kathu Village Mall. The suspects were allegedly found in possession of stolen clothes and toiletries to
the value of R1 745,54. ) Housebreaking The Kathu police are investigating a case of housebreaking at 24 Esdoring Street in Kathu. Johnny Mamapula saw a suspicious looking person at his neighbour’s house, and contacted the complainant. After it was ascertained that the suspect was on the premises without the owner’s consent, the complainant contacted the Kathu Police. The suspect was located by Const. Shadrack Basiretsi after he had received a description of the suspect. The suspect was searched and stolen cash
and jewellery was found in the suspect’s possession. The suspect was then arrested. The Kathu Police want to thank Mamapula for his alertness and encourages the Kathu community to follow his example. ) Serious traffic accident The Kathu police are investigating a serious accident that occurred on 9 June on the N14 route. A silver Ford Mondeo allegedly overtook a Scania truck whilst there was oncoming traffic. The Ford Mondeo collided with an oncoming Volkswagen Golf, and the impact caused the Ford to also collide with the truck. The two drivers of the sedans passed away at the scene of the accident. The Volkswagen Golf’s passenger was seriously injured and was taken to hospital. The identity of the passenger is unknown. The Kathu Police are still trying to contact the families of the deceased.
Victim and accused both missing THE Kathu Police need the assistance of the public in locating two people of interest involved in a case of attempted rape. The incident occurred on 26 January 2013. The victim, Kesaolopa Sandrah Mochawe (24), who lived at house number 4285 in Mapoteng near Kathu
reported an attempted rape against Thebha Ndlovu, who also hails from Mapoteng. Ndlovu is originally from Zimbabwe. Both the victim and accused are no longer available at their respective addresses. Their current location is
important because the case needs to be put back on the court roll. Anyone with information with regards to the location of these two people can call WO Hanekom of the FCS Unit on 078-448-7809 or 053-723-9150 (during office hours) at the Kathu Police Station.

OUR PEOPLE
Station bids farewell to Koopman Ilse Watson A SMILE costs nothing but gives much. It reaches those who receive without making poorer those who give it. It takes a moment but the memory sometimes lasts a lifetime. The memory of Col Sampie Koopman will last a lifetime. With dignity, grace, integrity and humility he steered the Kuruman police for the past four years as their commander. Last Thursday several members of the Kuruman police and other cluster commanders paid tribute to Koopman during a farewell function. He has been transferred to Upington where he will be the station commander. “It is an honour to be here today and we don’t want you to leave but we know you must. We are losing a great man. We’ll let you go, but we know you will come back to Kuruman,” said John Valtyn, cluster chairperson. Koopman made remarkable changes and led by example. He showed colleagues the way forward. He believed in discipline and enforced it on police members. He expected only the best from his staff. Lt Col Cecilia Kgobe, cluster commander of Kathu, told guests that Koopman was a no-nonsense person. “His footprints will remain in Kuruman. Go, my brother; I know you will come back.” In his speech at the function Koopman mentioned that people should never forget their roots. “I am writing my life essay. I am
COL SAMPIE KOOPMAN and his wife, Nella. During his farewell speech he also thanked her for her support. Photos: Ilse Watson
proud to say that I know I made a difference here. Your rank is not important, who you are as a human being, is. You must set an example for your colleagues.” He also said that there was a perception amongst community members that the Kuruman police delivered a bad service.
GUESTS at the farewell function for Col Sampie Koopman, station commander of the Kuruman police, who has been transferred to Upington.
He asked current members of the police to change that perception in the community. “Action is the dignity of greatness. That should be your motto here. Without action, nothing will change. The Kuruman police is under-staffed and cannot cope with all the work in this area but if everyone does their part, they can make a difference. “I thank everyone who worked with me. I thank the station commanders and cluster commanders of Kathu and Postmasburg for their positive attitude and support. I am just a phone call away – call me any time for advice or help.”

Polisiehoë wat omgee KURUMAN se verlies is Upington se wins. Kol. Sampie Koopman, stasiebevelvoerder van die Kuruman-polisiekantoor, is op pad terug na sy wortels. Hierdie besonderse man is terugverplaas na Upington, waar hy grootgeword het, om daar die leisels as stasiebevelvoerder oor te neem. In die vier jaar dat hy hierdie pos in Kuruman beklee het, het hy ’n groot verskil gemaak. Koopman was nie altyd gewild onder polisielede in Kuruman nie, omdat hy in dissipline glo en streng is wat dit betref. Veiligheidskenners sal getuig dat wetstoepassing sonder dissipline gedoem is. Die polisie in ons land en streek veg reeds ’n baie moeilike stryd met misdaad wat plek-plek buite beheer is. Juis daarom is dissipline so belangrik. Koopman is ’n mens wat plat op die aarde is. Nooit sal hy die telefoon as “kolonel” beantwoord nie. Dit is altyd net “Koopman”, ’n duidelike aanduiding dat dit vir dié man nie gaan oor rang of belangrikheid nie, maar oor die gehalte van die mens. ’n Ander sterk punt van
Koopman is dat hy besef hoe noodsaaklik goeie kommunikasie in die stryd teen misdaad is. Hy het goeie verhoudinge met die Bulletin in Kuruman gehandhaaf en die koerant onder meer saamgeneem op daggaklopjagte, wat die koerant in staat gestel het om eerstehands oor die gebeure verslag te kon doen. Die media is ’n uiters belangrike vennoot in die misdaadstryd, en deur joernaliste insig te gee in die uitdagings waarmee die polisie te doen het kan beriggewing oor misdaad net verbeter word. Dit strek Koopman tot eer dat hy besorg is oor die beeld van die polisie en dat dit hom pla as die publiek onder die indruk verkeer dat die polisie se dienslewering swak is. Hy streef dan ook daarna om polisielede te motiveer om seker te maak dat hulle goeie diens lewer. Die Bulletin wil vandag hulde bring aan polisielede soos Koopman vir wie dit ’n saak van erns is om die gemeenskap te dien en seker te maak dat die stryd teen misdaad gewen word. Hy word alles van die beste in sy nuwe pos toegewens.
Ons lewe word deur branders glad gemaak IN Kalifornië is ’n strand wat as Pebble Beach bekend staan. Die branders slaan met soveel krag teen die strand dat die klippies gedurig teen mekaar en teen die rotse skuur en dit maak hulle glad, blink en mooi. ’n Medeleraar van die Birchleighgemeente, Hennie van Wyk, het dié storie gestuur. Toeriste kom van ver om na Pebble Beach se mooi, gladde klippies te kyk en dit as aandenkings saam te neem huis toe. Teleurstelling en teëspoed kan ook in ons lewe, in ons karakter en gedrag, ’n soortgelyke invloed hê. Die komponis Händel het eens wanhopig in Londen se strate rondgedwaal. Hy was bankrot en het verwerp deur almal gevoel. Een oggend keer hy terug na sy ysige kamer. Op die tafel lê ’n dik koevert, ’n libretto, ’n vokale musiekstuk wat Charles Jennens uit Bybelverse saamgestel het. Verwese, honger en koud blaai Händel lusteloos deur die lang werk. Die woorde voor hom laat hom regop sit. Dit is die Ou-Testamentiese voorspelling van die geboorte van Christus: Raadsman, sterke God, Vredevors. Opgewonde lees hy verder hoe Hy deur die mense verag en verwerp sou word. Die woorde dat
sy Verlosser leef en die Koning van konings is, word in sy siel ingebrand. Händel gryp ’n potlood en gaan sit voor die klavier. Twee weke lank werk hy feitlik ononderbroke en gee gestalte aan Die Messias. Ná twee weke nooi hy ’n vriend en met trane in sy oë vertel hy hoe die skepping van die Hallelujakoor hom laat voel het asof hy self in die hemel is en hy God voor hom sien. Die eerste uitvoering van Die Messias was in Dublin en die gehoor se reaksie was oorweldigend. So ook in Londen ’n paar weke later. Die Engelse koning het self die uitvoering bygewoon en meegevoer deur die Hallelujakoor het hy opgestaan en die gehoor het sy voorbeeld gevolg. Tot vandag toe oor die wêreld heen staan die gehore op as die Hallelujakoor gespeel en gesing word. Later was George Frederick Händel weer arm, blind en siek, maar sy omstandighede sou nooit weer sy gees knak nie. – Bron: ds. Manie Colyn, www. kragvirelkedag.co.za

Goeie pa’s waardeer als Benneli Olivier Van der Walt VADERSDAG. – ’n Dag waarop kinders van alle ouderdomme ’n geleentheid kry om vir hul pa dankie te sê vir die baie maniere waarop hulle ’n mens se lewe verryk. My pa is nog altyd en sal altyd ’n inspirasie vir my bly. Hy het verlede jaar ná 45 jaar in die Kruger- Nasionale Park afgetree. Tydens sy tyd in die park het hy verskeie kere toeriste en kollegas gehelp sonder om daaroor te kla. Weens sy werk kon ek saam met my gesin in ’n unieke en pragtige omgewing grootword met ondervindings wat min mense ooit sal beleef. Een van sy vele sêgoed, “vriendelikheid kos niks”, sal my altyd bybly en kom my goed te staan in my werk en alledaagse lewe. Met soveel onsekerheid, weet ek dat ek altyd op my pa kan staatmaak. Die meeste van sy grys hare is my skuld, maar hy is die mens wat nog altyd, deur dik

en dun, by my gestaan het. Hy het my toegelaat om my eie foute te maak en is daar om die stukke op te tel as dinge nie uitwerk nie. En natuurlik is hy die beste oupa vir wie ’n kleinseun kan vra. Gewoonlik begin Vadersdag met ontbyt in die bed (wat Ma help maak) en dan die geskenk. Ons is ’n kunstige huisgesin, en Seun het Vadersdag as die perfekte geleentheid gesien om sy talent in die vorm van prentjiegeskenke vir die pa’s te gebruik. Nou is die Vadersdag-bederf al ’n jare lange tradisie in ons familie. Ek en die gesin het juis mooi beplan om vanjaar tydens Vadersdag by my familie in Pretoria te gaan kuier. So kan ek sommer die spreekwoordelike “twee vlieë met een klap”-tegniek gebruik om die twee pa’s in my lewe te

bederf. Of om ten minste bystand-personeel vir my driejarige seun te wees wanneer hy vir Pappa en Oupa ontbyt maak. Ná ’n relatiewe vreesaanjaende kombuisondervinding het my seun plegtig die skinkborde (met ’n klein bietjie hulp) vroegoggend by die pa’s gaan aflewer. En natuurlik die tradisionele handgemaakte geskenk. Pappa kry ’n “das” gemaak van ’n koevert en Oupa kry ’n prentjie van ’n halfherkenbare perd. Tesame met die oorhandiging van die geskenke, kry albei natuurlik ’n vet soen. En saam met die vet soen, ’n lekker dosis kleuterskoolgriep. Dit is opsluit ook die seisoen vir “griep-geskenkies” wat die kinders vir hul ouers van die skool af bring. Maar dit is hoekom goeie pa’s van alle generasies ’n seën vir hul gesinne is. Hoewel hulle die volgende dag met loopneuse en waterige oë opgestaan het, het hulle net komplimente oor die vorige dag se “groot bederf” gehad.

Chess changes mindset
Sy wil ’n verskil maak ANNEMIE VAN HUYSSTEEN van Kathu is gekies om deel te wees van die Out of Africa Winter Queen Pageant 2014 wat van 26 tot 30 Augustus gehou word. Van Huyssteen was verlede jaar ’n finalis in die Mevrou Verenigde Nasies Suid-Afrika-kompetisie en het boonop die direkteurseerbewys in dié kompetisie ontvang. Die Out of Africa Winter Queen Pageant fokus daarop om ’n verskil in die wêreld teweeg te bring. Een van die belangrikste aspekte van die kompetisie is om by die plaaslike gemeenskap betrokke te raak. Gemeenskapswerk lê Van Huyssteen na aan die hart en sy sien kompetisies as ’n platform van waar sy haar gemeenskap kan help. Van Huyssteen beplan op 28 Junie ’n groot motorskou op Fit It se perseel as deel van haar gemeenskapsuitreik-aksie. Groot pryse is op die spel. Mense wat stalletjies wil bedryf of ’n motor het om te vertoon kan Van Huyssteen vir meer inligting kontak. Van Huyssteen en haar dogter Janeske het onlangs die susters en pasiënte van die Mediclinic Kathu met ’n besoek verras. Die twee het kaartjies van bemoediging en ’n sjokolade aan almal daar uitgedeel. Volgens Van Huyssteen was dit lekker om aan die personeel dankie te kon sê en die pasiënte se dag te kon opvrolik. Van Huyssteen help maandeliks minstens vyf behoeftige gesinne op die dorp met klere, kos en speelgoed. Die benodigdhede word deur die plaaslike gemeenskap geborg. Die projek Drive for Toys moedig die gemeenskap van Kathu aan om skenkings aan behoeftiges te doen.

ANNEMIE VAN HUYSSTEEN is ’n finalis in die projek Out of Africa Winter Queen Pageant 2014. Foto: Verskaf Hoewel Van Huyssteen heeltyds werk en die normale verpligtinge van enige ma het, laat sy nie toe dat die verantwoordelikhede haar onderkry nie. “Ons is almal ’n talent of twee in die lewe gegee. Ek is die slaaf wat woeker daarmee om vir my Koning meer te kan teruggee. “Drome bestaan nie om gedroom te word nie, maar om uitgeleef te word. Indien jy daardeur goed kan doen, is dit ’n bonus. Elke dag wat ’n mens iets kleins vir ’n ander kan doen, is ’n perfekte dag.” Die Out of Africa Winter Queen-finaliste moet vanjaar ook borge vir die Childhood Cancer Foundation of South Africa (CHOC) insamel. Haar mikpunt is om R16 000 vir die organisasie in te samel. Belangstellendes kan Van Huyssteen by 081-468-4887 bel.
CHILDREN in schools in the Hotazel and Kuruman regions have been playing the game of chess for some time now as part of their maths and science training. The programme is run from Pretoria by the Moves For Life (MFL) organisation. This has been made possible by a sponsorship from the BHP Billiton Maganese Division. MFL area manager, Petra Flemming, reports that the teachers and the learners are now so enthusiastic about chess that they don’t want to go home after the chess lessons. Teachers report a remarkable difference in the children attending chess classes. At the Sedibeng Primary School there are 445 learners now attending chess classes. A teacher at the school reports that school discipline has improved remarkably since chess was introduced. Part of the chess protocol is good manners and respect. All players are required to shake hands before and after every game. Moremi says that the programme develops learning skills and that concentration, comprehension and reasoning are clearly improving amongst the learners. This is great news for MFL because that is part of their objective. Learner attitude to work is a major factor in school performance. A teacher of the Maipeing Primary School has also reported

THE MFL chess programme develops learning skills, concentration, comprehension and reasoning in learners. a visible improvement in learner attitude. She tells the story of a 13-year-old learner, Ontlametse Mosetlhatsela from Kanana Village, who learned to play under the MFL system and is now so keen that he now helps teach the younger children. MFL provided Mosetlhatsela with a thrilling opportunity by sending him to Kimberley to play in a tournament there. It was the first time he travelled that far. A teacher of the Nweng Primary School relates that certain children who were uncooperative in class before are now cooperating and achieving success with new-found self-confidence. He says that learners enjoy

doing maths on the demonstration chess board. This is excellent news because part of the chess programme teaches the children to imagine the layout of graphs and geometry. Familiarity with the layout of a chess board makes a transition to maths graphs so much easier. The MFL programme now has over 45 000 children in its chess classes across the country. The success in implementation is very much dependent on the enthusiasm of the MFL area managers and in particular the teachers at the schools ) Dr Kelvin Kemm is a Moves For Life (MFL) trustee in Pretoria.

LAST week the Gamagara Development Forum (GDF) officially handed over the Tebogo Phuduhudu Resources Centre to the Northern Cape Kathu FET College. The centre’s construction started in 2012. It has 45 computers with internet facilities and also serves as a reading space for students at the Kathu FET College. The GDF specifically launched the centre to coincide with the 1976 Soweto protest memorial. Representatives from several Northern Cape FET colleges attended the hand-over ceremony. Ivan Steenkamp was the programme director of the day and Richard Okhaa from the Sesheng Intermediate School near Kathu opened the ceremony with a prayer. Thabo Magopa, a senior lecturer at the Kathu FET College, said this was a historic event for their institution. “Through this resource centre, we will become what we need to be successful in this day and age.” Lepulane Maboshego, the CEO of the GDF, said students should make full use of the opportunities available to them. “This resource centre will be a big step in continuing the struggle for economic emancipation and academic growth.” Percy Sago, the CEO of the Northern Cape FET colleges, said the resource centre should be utilised to further students’ language, mathematical and scientific knowledge. He also thanked all the parties involved in the construction and funding of the centre. Mabel Molale, mother of Tebogo Phuduhudu, thanked the college for the honour of naming the centre after her son. Phuduhudu died on 26 March 2012.

Kathu-mark die plek om te wees Benneli Olivier Van der Walt
DAAR was vermaak vir oud en jonk en almal het van die geleentheid gebruik gemaak om ’n bietjie in die winterson te bak.
DIT is amper weer tyd vir die Kathu-mark by Thsimo Gardens. Die mark vind op 21 Junie plaas en die gemeenskap word uitgenooi om in die pret te kom deel. Die opbrengs van die stalletjie-huur word aan liefdadigheid en Kansa Kathu geskenk.
Toktokkie gaan ook die mark besoek en die kleinspan sal die geleentheid kry om saam met hom foto’s te neem. Daar gaan ook ’n Kansa Shavathon wees waar mense se hare vir liefdadigheidsdoeleindes kleurvol gespuit sal word. Nantis en Adele du Plessis sal die dag se sangvermaak verskaf.

MARITA VAN DER VYVER deel in hierdie koffietafelboek die eerste keer die resepte wat haar gesin en haar vriende kuier-kuier onder die plataanboom in hul tuin geniet. Dis nie net lente- en somerkos nie, maar ook Mediterreense en Provensaalse kos wat lekker smaak onder ’n jakaranda of kiepersol. Somerkos in Provence is ’n heerlike reis om te lees hoe Marita van haar gunstelinge maak. Somerkos in Provence is ’n mengsel van verbeelding en gesonde verstand, lekkerbekkigheid en praktiese oorwegings en sal die minder en meer ervare kok begeester en besiel.

Marita se bundels is nie-fiksie – of nie DIE Suid-Afrikaanse skrywer Marita van der Vyver sê die volgende oor haar boek ’n Fontein voor ons deur: “Groot was my vreugde toe my uitgewer my die dag laat weet dat die voorloper van hierdie boek, Die hart van ons huis, tweede op die Suid-Afrikaanse topverkoperlys vir boeke in alle tale is. “Net onder (heelwat onder, moet ek in alle beskeidenheid byvoeg) die internasionale treffer The Da ’n Fontein voor ons deur is een van Vinci Code. die beste bundels wat die afgelope “Maar terwyl jaar verskyn het. ek nog wik en weeg of dit ’n geldige verskoning is om ’n bottel regte-egte Franse sjampanje oop te maak, sien ek dat dit die topverkoperlys vir fiksie is. “En Die hart van ons huis – soos ’n Fontein voor ons deur – is nie-fiksie. Of is dit? “Ek weet regtig nie op watter rak ’n Fontein voor ons deur hoort nie. “As ek gedwing word om dit in een (erg onwetenskaplike) frase op te som sal ek sê dis nog ’n lighartige relaas oor my onidilliese lewe in ’n idilliese landskap, ’n verdere poging om die Provensaalse legende van laventel en pastis te ondergrawe, ’n trekstorie met vele Franse kinkels. “Anders gestel, liewe leser, Griet het lankal nie meer tyd om sprokies te skryf nie. “Die ‘regte’ lewe het ’n veeleisende, uitputtende, immer verrassende, nimmer vervelige sage geword. “Besluit maar self op watter rak jy daarvoor gaan soek!”
