KALAHARI BULLETIN, DONDERDAG 6 NOVEMBER 2014
Early start gives kids the edge KUMBA IRON ORE’S Kolomela Mine partnered with the Custoda Trust and held a mini-conference to advocate Early Childhood Development (ECD). Kumba is a member of the Anglo American Group. Key to this partnership is the Department of Social Development and the Tsantsabane Local Municipality as the policy makers and custodians of development. Among the guests in attendance at the ECD mini-conference were Mxolisi Sokatsha, the MEC for Social Development, Elroy Phete, the Tsantsabane Local Municipality’s mayor, and Huldah Barnard, the Custoda Trust’s director. Education remains one of Kolomela’s key focus areas as it attempts to create a platform to transform the lives of young people and to see positive social changes in the area. Phete highlighted that the path to a good education started with a good foundation, and that a good foundation started already at ECD level. He further mentioned that if society got its foundation right at the ECD level, it would reap the fruits within 12 years. The partnership started three years ago, when Early Childhood Development was identified as a top priority and a central component of government’s National Development Plan. “When I was in the Department of Health we had a very good relationship with the Kolomela Mine. “This clearly indicates that the private sector plays a big role in the partnership with government,” said Sokatsha. “Society has to ensure that every child in South Africa has access to quality education. “This starts long before a child walks into a gr. 1 classroom for the first time. “It is imperative that parents realise how important it is to ensure that their child is thoroughly equipped for their school career,” Sokatsha concluded. An assessment of existing ECD centres in
MXOLISI SOKATSHA, Social Development MEC. the Tsantsabane municipal area was done and based on this assessment, the Kolomela Mine embarked on a three-year journey of ECD capacity building and support. The programme was aimed at driving a total transformation process for the 17 identified ECDs in the Tsantsabane municipal area in order to achieve an acceptable level of development in accordance with government policies. “One of Kumba’s priorities is to create and leave a positive legacy in the communities where we operate,” said George Benjamin, the Kolomela manager of public affairs. “As a responsible mining company we listen to our stakeholders and their views. We work closely with our communities to come up with innovative ways to address age-old problems that impact our society today. “Through Kumba’s long-term community

Photos: Supplied strategy we reach out and respond to the priorities of societies, working hand in hand with our partners,” Benjamin said. He added that the return of this investment was the value the partnership could create for the community by ensuring that young children had access to quality education at a young age. “They have an opportunity to be placed in a protected environment. Young children are hence not left to wander around, but their brains are developed at this early stage,” Benjamin said. The ECD conference ended on a high
note with the official handover of two new ECD centres funded by the Kolomela Mine in the remote Skeyfontein villages as part of the mine’s corporate and social investment initiatives. The delegation consisted of Sokatsha, Phete, community members of the Skeyfontein community lead by Kgosi Sebuko, representatives of the Community Property Association, along with the delegates of the Kolomela Mine. The doors of the two new ECD centres were opened in the presence of excited young children from the community.

ONS MENSE
Skaak Anell se beste skuif Lizette Slabber
ANELL MAASDORP, ’n gr. 3-leerling aan die Voorbereidingskool Fanie Malan, is gekies om Suid-Afrika op die Afrika-jeugskaakkamppioenskap te verteenwoordig. Die kampioenskap vind van 20 tot 28 Desember in Monastir, Tunisië, plaas. Slegs twee spelers per ouderdomsgroep is gekies om in Monastir te gaan speel. Anell spog met ’n lang lys skaakprestasies. Sy het in 2013 as o.8-speler aan die Afrika-jeugskaakkampioenskap in Port Elizabeth deelgeneem. Vanjaar was sy as o.10-speler vyfde op die Suid-Afrikaanse junior geslote skaaktoernooi. Slegs genooide spelers mag aan dié toernooi deelneem. Sy het ook vanjaar in Durban aan die Wêreld-jeugskaaktoernooi deelgeneem. Die Kalahari Bulletin het by dié oulike skaakspelertjie gaan hoor hoekom sy so lief is vir skaak. Wanneer het jy begin skaak speel? Ek speel al vandat ek drie jaar oud is, maar ek hou nie net van skaak nie. Ek hou ook van somme. Hoekom is jy so lief vir skaak? Want dan kan ek my verstand gebruik, net soos in somme. Ek hoef nie vinnig te speel nie en ek kan my tyd gebruik om die regte skuiwe te maak. Watter ander sportsoorte beoefen jy? Ek speel hokkie en tennis. Weet jy, tennis is eintlik die teenoorgestelde van skaak? Met skaak moet jy dink en in tennis hardloop jy net rond en slaan ’n bal. Wat is jou gunsteling-skaakstuk? Die dame, want sy kan baie goed doen. (Terwyl Anell die vrae beantwoord, speel sy met Tshahitsi Lodge se groot skaakstukke.) Kyk! Hier het ek teen myself gespeel en myself binne vier skuiwe in skaakmat gesit en die dame het dit alles gedoen. Sy is soos jou gelukbringer.
Watter skaakstuk skuif jy altyd eerste? Ek mag nie dit sê nie, want dan gaan almal my opening weet. Dis my geheim, maar kom ek sê net dit . . . Die ruiter is ook my gelukbringer. Oefen jy elke dag? Ek oefen baie skaak, maar nie elke dag nie. Net naweke en vakansies. Vakansies kan ek heeldag speel. Ek ken my opening so goed ek kan dit al toe oë speel. Hoe lank duur ’n skaakwedstryd omtrent? Partykeer net so vyf minute en ander kan tot een en ’n half uur lank wees, maar ek het al een gespeel wat vier uur lank was. Gelukkig mag ’n mens water drink en lekkergoed soos sjokolade eet. ) Die toekenning van Suid-Afrikaanse kleure is onderhewig aan deelname aan die toernooi. Die koste om Anell in Tunisië te kry is baie hoog. Indien enigiemand skenkings wil maak, kan hulle Pieter Malan by 082-773-7787 of Fanie Malan by 054-331-1819 bel.

Temper die wedywering

Tjoepstil en vree(t)saam Ilse Watson “JY verstaan wat ek vir jou sê? Ek is moeg. Moeg vir my werk. Moeg vir ongeskikte mense. “Moeg vir die hitte. Ek sê vir jou, vir hierdie somermaande sien ek nie kans nie. “Ek raak nou te oud daarvoor,” vertel sy terwyl sy ’n groot hap wortelkoek vat. Dit verstom dat sy eintlik dit regkry om te eet, want haar mond is te besig met praat. Uhm . . . ja, ek verstaan, maar . . . “Nee, jy hoor nie wat ek vir jou sê nie. Eergister, het jy gesien hoe besig is die dorp? “ ’n Mens veg jou pad oop tussen vragmotors en motors. Jy hoor wat ek vir jou sê?” Uhm . . . ek hoor, maar jy . . . Ek kry nie kans om te praat nie. Aangesien ek nie ’n woord inkry nie, smul ek maar verder aan die heerlike tuisgemaakte melktert. Ons kuier by ’n koffiewinkel en sit onder heerlike groot bome. Die koffiewinkel het die heerlikste koeke en klein tertjies. Jy kan kos ook bestel, maar ek verkies ’n soetigheid. Julle weet mos dat ek

nie ’n heerlike varsgebakte stuk koek kan weerstaan nie. “Nee, ek sê vir jou suster, ek moet aftree. Ek dink dis wat ek moet doen. Ek moet sommer padgee en daar op my ouers se plaas gaan bly.” Ja, dit kan . . . “Ek moet jou hierdie storie vertel. Jou mond sal oophang.” My mond kry net kans om koek te eet, niks anders nie. Ek probeer weer. So, watter nuus . . . “Gister toe ek probeer om by die winkel uit te kom, het ek amper ’n paar mense doodgery. Hulle loop sommer oor die pad. Jy hoor wat ek vir jou sê?” Uhm . . . “Ek weet nie meer hoe ’n mens moet oorleef nie. Alles het duurder geword. “Ek gaan winkel toe en dan kos drie sakkies kos my ’n helse klomp geld. Jy hoor wat ek vir jou sê?”

Ek besef hier gaan ek lank sit. Ek benodig versterkings. Ek bestel nog ’n stuk koek en ’n vars pot tee. Hierdie keer bestel ek wortelkoek. Daar is so ’n dik laag versiering op. Sy hou skielik op kekkel, maar ook nie vir baie lank nie. “Gaan jy nou wragtag nog ’n stuk koek eet? Raak jy nie naar van al die soetigheid nie? Ek kan nie soveel koek eet nie. Dit maak in elk geval net vet.” Ek staar na haar stuk koek, waarvan sy seker nog net drie happe gevat het, en haar pot tee is lankal koud. Uhm . . . ja, ek gaan, maar . . . Weer kry ek nie ’n woord geuiter nie. Maar ek dink so by myself dat as ek sy was, ek ’n tweede stuk koek sou bestel het. Soos wat sy praat, gaan sy energie benodig. “Maar vertel my nou eers. Hoe gaan dit met jou? Hoe gaan dit by die werk? Is jy nog gelukkig?” Uhm . . . ja, ek . . . Daar is geen kans vir my om enigiets te sê nie. Want ek word weer in die rede geval. Ek eet dus maar net verder. Uhm . . .

SKOLE het deur die jare geweldig verander X in so ’n mate dat skole vandag soos sake-ondernemings bestuur moet word om gehalte-onderwys te verseker. Enige onderneming se reputasie is van kardinale belang en in die meeste bedrywe is dit vir ’n besigheid noodsaaklik om uit te staan as die een wat beter waarde vir geld as sy mededingers bied. Uit te staan as die een wat die beste produkte lewer en die beste diens verskaf. Ongelukkig raak dié werklikheid ook al hoe meer van toepassing op ons skole – en in sommige gevalle kan dit tot ongesonde kompetisie lei. Dít is nie noodwending tot voordeel van ons kinders en ons gemeenskap nie. Elke skool word vandag te midde van skrikwekkende uitdagings bestuur. Die bydrae uit die staatskas het geweldig min geword, met die gevolg dat skole verstommende bedrae geld sélf moet insamel net om te kan oorleef X wat nog te sê van gehalte-onderwys verskaf. Elke skool moet ook teen wil en dank bykomende onderwysers aanstel, omdat die klasgroottes andersins net onhanteerbaar is. Soos een onderwyser dit gestel
het: Ons beoefen nie meer opvoeding nie, ons pas nou skarebeheer toe. Skole moet dan ook met mekaar meeding om borgskappe by plaaslike sakelui te kry. Allerhande projekte – waarvan min met die onderwys verband hou – moet aangepak word om verder geld uit die gemeenskap in te samel. Eindelik rus die groot aandeel wat skole se inkomste betref, steeds by die ouers. Tog boer gewone mense weens uitdagende ekonomiese omstandighede net al hoe meer agteruit wat hul persoonlike geldsake betref. Die gevolg is dat al hoe meer ouers al hoe meer sukkel om hul kinders se skoolgeld te betaal. Wat die Kalahari Bulletin vandag bepleit, is dat ons onderskeie skoolgemeenskappe met sagte oë na mekaar moet kyk. Ons is almal in dieselfde bootjie. Ons dien dieselfde gemeenskap en het dieselfde uitdagings. Kom ons gun mekaar ’n bietjie sonlig. Dalk kan ons meer as in die verlede mekaar se hande vat om saam vorentoe te beweeg, eerder as om in ongesonde wedywering vasgeval te raak.
Hoekom moet alles altyd reg verloop? Hannes Noëth DIE meeste van ons hou nie van sukkel nie. Wanneer alles glad verloop, is dinge darem net baie makliker as dat ’n mens nou moet sukkel. Van tyd tot tyd kry jy in ons ou mensdom tog ’n uitsondering. Iemand wat begaaf is om nie om te gee om te sukkel nie, wat met die grootste geduld kan sukkel. Sonder om kwaad te word. Sonder om te dink die wêreld is die onregverdigste plek om in te woon, omdat daar alewig ’n ou gesukkel is. My lewensweg het die pad van oom Jacobus gekruis. Hy het nie omgegee om te sukkel nie. Natuurlik tot groot frustrasie van sy gesinnetjie van moeder, vroulief en sewe kindertjies. So baie soos hy kon sukkel en wou sukkel, so min was hulle begaaf om saam met hom te sukkel. Aan hulle het hy hom nou nie juis gesteur nie. Hy het doodgewoon voortgesukkel, omdat sukkel nie vir hom ’n probleem was nie. “Hy gaan haal eintlik die sukkel daar ver agter,” sou hulle oor sy lewenswyse sug. Sy ou karretjie was ’n ou-ou DKW, waarskynlik die oudste wat
bestaan. Hy het gedurig aan die binnekant gekarring. Hy het altyd ’n baard gedra, altyd ’n hoed op sy kop, altyd ’n das aan – selfs wanneer hy met die stukkende DKW sukkel. Heel opreg sou hy antwoord dat jy darem moet netjies lyk as jy langs die pad gaan staan. Soos wat feitlik elke keer gebeur het wanneer hulle iewers heen op pad was. Hy kon die DKW maklik vervang as hy wou, maar hy wou nie. Die gesukkel was vir hom lekker. Sy kinders sou gou vertel: “Pa glo mos nie ’n vakansie is ’n vakansie indien ons nie minstens een keer weg en een keer terug gaan staan het nie.” Eienaardige lewensfilosofie wat hy gehad het – tog kan ons baie by hom leer. Sy vraag was nooit hoekom hy moet sukkel nie – hy sou jou gou teëgaan en vra: Hoekom moet alles altyd reg verloop? Soms kan iets mos maar verkeerd ook loop.

KALAHARI BULLETIN, DONDERDAG 6 NOVEMBER 2014
Alleged rape investigated THE South African Police Service (SAPS) in Kathu is investigating a case of rape. On Tuesday, 21 October, at approximately 09:15, a two-year-old baby was allegedly raped by a 15-year-old. The incident took place at Diepkloof in Olifantshoek. The investigating officer in the case is WO Buks Hanekom of the Kathu Police.
Body found in ditch DIE Kuruman Field Band het die aand opgetree.
Kansa-beursie bult Benneli Olivier Van der Walt DIE afgelope naweek het die gemeenskap van Kathu vir Kansa se jaarlikse Relay for Life saamgetrek. Die geleentheid het op die Sivos-sportterrein in die dorp plaasgevind. Ds. André de Villiers het die deelnemers verwelkom. Die gewilde sanger Dawid Fourie het op die geleentheid opgetree en toeskouers en deelnemers vermaak. Die plaaslike sanger Annemie van Huyssteen, asook die Dance Fever Studio en die Kuruman Field Band, het opgetree. Die Herbalife-span het die meeste geld (ongeveer R30 000) ingesamel, terwyl die jongste deelnemers van die Dance Fever Studio was. Die beste korporatiewe span was Tua Mining. Altesaam R107 399 is met die geleentheid vir Kansa ingesamel. Hoewel die weer nie altyd saamgespeel het nie, het die deelnemers nie moed opgegee nie en deur die wind en reën aangehou stap.
THE Kathu police are investigating a case of murder. Jacobus Moss was found in a ditch behind the Multotec in Kathu. A suspect was arrested in connection with the case. The Kathu police suspect that the victim was fighting with the suspect when he was killed. Upon the arrival of the police, the victim was already dead.
Join patrols THE Kathu police and its administrative personnel are currently busy with a special operation in and around Kathu. The police are executing foot patrols through the various bushy areas in and around Kathu. The Kathu police urge the community to get involved with the current street patrols.

ADAM tree op 21 November op die Kathuperdeklub se grasperk op. ’n Biertent, kosstalletjies en ’n springkasteel gaan beskikbaar wees. Dit gaan ’n aand van gesinspret wees. Bring ’n piekniekmandjie en geniet ’n aand van goeie musiek onder die sterre. Die kaartjies kos R120 per volwassene en R60 vir kinders jonger as 18 jaar. Die kaartjies is by Eysele en Fouchee beskikbaar of skakel 082-568-6035. Wen twee kaartjies na die vertoning deur die vraag te beantwoord: Noem een van die drie kunstenaars wat op die Opskopfees 2014 opgetree het. Stuur ’n e-pos met jou naam, antwoord en kontaknommer na media@opskop.co.za.
Groep mik hoër DAAR is opwindende dinge aan die gebeur vir die groep ADAM. In Januarie het Kyle Grant hom by die groep aangesluit en dadelik by die ritme van ADAM aangepas. Die drie manne van ADAM, Reynardt Hugo, Hugo Ludik en Grant, het groot planne om die groep vanjaar tot nog hoër hoogtes te neem. Die groep, wat nou amper vier jaar bedrywig is, het reeds in 2011 gewys die mark is honger vir ’n groep van sy kaliber toe hy ’n Ghoema-eerbewys as beste nuweling ontvang het. Ludik sê die groepsdinamika is van besonderse belang en hulle voel sommer baie tevrede met die keuse van Grant as die nuwe lid. Toe hy ’n paar jaar gelede begin speel het met die idee van ’n nuwe
groep wat uit drie manstemme bestaan, het hy Hugo nader gehark en toe het die soektog na ’n derde lid begin. Een van die musikante wat hulle genader het om deel van die groep te word was juis Grant. Ludik het ’n paar
jaar vantevore saam met hom aan ’n vertoning gewerk en hy het gedink die talentvolle musikant sal goed by die groep pas. ADAM tree op 21 November in Kathu op.
This day in history DIE Twisted Sisters-skoonheid-en-haarsalon het op 15 Oktober ’n winter-kompetisietrekking gehou. Die pryse het ’n haarbehandeling, lipolaserbehandeling, naelversorgingspakkette en skoonheidspakkette ingesluit. Hier is Anne-Marie Caetano (links) en Nicolene Fourie van Twisted Sisters.

‘Dit is die ideale sport waaraan kin ders ook kan deel neem. Dit leer hulle dissipline en hoe om diere te ver sorg.’ – Giel Swie gers
GIEL SWIEGERS saam met sy wedvlug-duiwe.
Foto: Verskaf
Posduifvlieg ’n gesinsport Ilse Watson “EK is reeds sedert my kinderdae met posduiwe en posduif-vlieg gefassineerd. Ek is altyd opgewonde om te wag vir my duiwe om van ’n wedvlug terug te keer.” Só vertel Giel Swiegers van Kuruman. Hy het in 2010 met posduiwe begin boer. Hy het slegs 14 broeipare gehad en ook met 60 jong duiwe en 40 ouer duiwe (dié wat reeds aan wedvlugte deelgeneem het) aan kompetisies begin deelneem. Hy is lid van die Kuruman-posduifklub en die ouderdomme van lede wissel van 11 tot 82. Lede van die Kuruman-posduifklub ding met mekaar mee. Kompetisies vind in
die wedvlug-seisoen, wat in Mei begin, plaas. Die laaste kompetisies is op 4 Oktober gehou. Gedurende die wedvlug-seisoen word daar elke naweek gevlieg en word daar aan ongeveer 18 wedvlugte deelgeneem. Posduiwe het ’n ryk geskiedenis. Hulle is reeds van die vroeë 1150’s in Bagdad en toe later deur Genghis Khan van die Mongoolse ryk gebruik. Hulle is ook in die Eerste en Tweede Wêreldoorlog as boodskapdraers aangewend. In Egipte en Rome is duiwe vir kommunikasie gebruik om die verskeie ryke mee op te bou. Ander lande wat ook posduiwe gebruik het, is China, Griekeland, Italië en Indië. China het hul
duiwe as afleweringsdiens gebruik om briewe na verskeie mense te neem en banke het ook posduiwe gebruik. In die 21ste eeu is duiwe selfs vir militêre kommunikasie gebruik. Daar word beweer dat duiwe in die toekoms weer as boodskapdraers gebruik kan word om privaatheid te verseker aangesien elektroniese kommunikasie nie altyd betroubaar is nie. Die suksesvolste duiwe kom uit België. Kenmerke van goeie posduiwe is spoed, uithouvermoë en intelligensie. Wanneer die wedvlug-seisoen begin, word duiwe reeds twee maande voor die tyd opgelei. Hulle word ook gering. Duiwe word dan
na ’n sentrale punt geneem vanwaar hulle moet vlieg en na hul hokke moet terugkeer. Duiwe wat die eerste keer aan wedvlugte deelneem, vlieg ’n afstand van 280 km en die langste vlugte wat gevlieg word, is 790 km. Baie duifies raak wel weg. Hulle raak moeg en wanneer dit baie winderig is, vlieg hulle te laag en sodoende raak hulle in kragdrade verstrengel. Hulle word ook dan deur valke opgevreet. As dit bewolk is, kan die duiwe nie vlieg nie, want hulle gebruik die son as rigtingaanwyser en hulle volg ook magneetvelde. “Om duiwe aan ’n mens gewoond te maak, is dit goed as jy elke keer dieselfde kleur klere

aantrek wanneer jy in hul hokke ingaan. Jy moet ook nie befoeterd wees wanneer jy hulle hanteer nie. Hulle voel ’n mens se bui aan,” vertel Swiegers. Duiwe word oor die land heen aangekoop en kuikens word van ingevoerde duiwe verkry. Die duiwe word dan gering sodat elkeen sy eie identiteit het. Die klokstelsel word gebruik om duiwe wat na hul hokke terugkeer, te tel. Met nuwe tegnologie word duiwe met ’n elektriese ringetjie gering en wanneer hulle van ’n wedvlug terugkeer, loop hulle oor ’n elektroniese toestel en sodoende word hulle geregistreer. Duiwehokke word oor Suid-Afrika heen opgerig en sodoende word ’n geleentheid vir ’n duiweboer, wat nie tyd het om sy duiwe te vlieg nie, geskep sodat sy duiwe ook aan wedvlugte kan deelneem. As duiweboer ding jou duiwe met die beste duiwe in Suid-Afrika mee. “Dit is die ideale sport waaraan kinders ook kan deelneem. Dit leer hulle dissipline en hoe om diere te versorg. Hulle ontwikkel ook verantwoordelikheid en ’n goeie selfbeeld. Hulle kry ook die geleentheid om nuwe tegnieke by veteraan-duiweboere te leer. Hulle bou self hul eie hokke, leer om dit verantwoordelik te bestuur en hulle oefen ook vir wedvlugte,” vertel Swiegers. “Om met posduiwe te boer en aan wedvlugte deel te neem, is ’n sport wat die hele gesin aan kan deelneem. ’n Mens bring gehalte-tyd saam met jou gesin deur.”
