Tandarts & wynkenner gebruik sy talente om veiling te reël

Die R71-pad van Haenertsburg via Tzaneen tot by Gravelotte sal einde Julie vanjaar voltooi wees, met waarborge vir die nuwe pad-oppervlaktes. Dié versekering kom van mnr Gert Botha, die hooftoesighouer en terreinbestuurder van Roadcrete Africa, wat die werk in opdrag van die nasionale padagentskap (Sanral) doen. Botha het aan die Bulletin verduidelik hoekom die padbouery in dele gedoen word. Verskillende deklae word aangewend, afhangende van die padtoestand. Die werk om Tzaneen het regoor die Tzaneen-gevangenis begin en die eerste deel strek tot by die afrit by Venbeck. Vir 6,2 km kry dié deel ‘n 45 mm-asfaltlaag (teer), behalwe die deel tussen die verkeersligte by die afrit na die nuwe Lifestyle Centre en die hoofingang na Tzaneen. Sanral het opdrag gegee dat dié deel uitgelaat word, omdat ‘n ander kontrakteur daarvoor verantwoordelik is. Van 6,2 km tot die 16 kmmerk kry die pad ‘n dubbelseël deklaag, terwyl die volgende twee kilometer 45 mm-asfalt en

—P3 ‘n dubbelseël deklaag kry. So verskil die aanwendings weens die toestand van die pad. Die “gesloer” tussen die Deerpark- en Venbeck-afritte skryf Botha toe aan verskeie negatiewe faktore wat die werk beïnvloed het. Hulle moes diep uitgrawings doen en ‘n onderlaag met klippe “bou”, weens ondergrondse water wat onderdeur dié deel van die pad vloei. ‘n Franse produk genaamd UTFC (ultra thin friction coarse) word in die herstelwerk van die 22 km-merk tot by die 32 km-merk gebruik. Dit is ‘n bedekking van 20 mm wat water inlaat en dit langs die kante van die pad weer uitlaat. Dit dra ‘n waarborg van drie jaar, waar paaie normaalweg net ‘n jaar waarborg het. Van die 32 km-merk tot by Gravelotte word ‘n rubberseël van 13,2 mm aangewend. Die kontrak van R82 miljoen is

maar eers in Augustus 2011 aan Roadcrete Africa toegeken, met die opdrag dat dit binne ‘n jaar afgehandel moet word. Hulle werk net aan die padoppervlakte. Ander skoonmaakwerk langs die pad word deur verskillende kontrakteurs gedoen. Roadcrete is ook nie verantwoordelik vir die reeks onwettige verkeerstekens wat langs die pad, veral in Georges Valley, opgerig is nie. Botha het die voorval waar motors onlangs met teer besmeer is, betreur. Hy sê die voertuigeienaars moes hom onmiddellik gekontak het. “Die teer kan maklik met ‘n diesellappie en water verwyder word.”

Roadcrete het benewens sy span ook 135 plaaslike mense in diens. Botha word bygestaan deur mnr Johan Kotzé, wat as beroepsveiligheid- en gesondheidsbeampte diens doen. Roadcrete is ‘n onderafdeling van Basil Read (en nie Roadspan soos verlede week per abuis berig is nie). Hulle doen padkonstruksie wêreldwyd. Botha is bereikbaar by 082 566 6922 vir navrae of klagtes.

Die skepper van dié bekkige strokiesprentkarakter, die kunstenaar Mike Coles van Tzaneen, het te veel ander bestellings vir groot kunswerke en sien nie kans om tans tyd aan Bushveld Mike af te staan nie. Maar hy beloof dat hy voorkant toe weer die gewilde karakter kan laat leef. Ons hoop so.

Mare-lee Cheney Dis iets vir die jonges om te doen, maar maak dit lekker en interessant. Hou dit in stand en wees baie streng! Sien nie hoekom ander gestraf moet word omdat sommige mense hulle nie kan gedra nie. Jacqueline Joubert Zaayman Ja verseker, een goeie voorbeeld is ons laerskool se swemspan wat die laaste paar jaar top 10 skole wen. Om vir ’n slag hier die kompetisies te hou sal wonderlik wees. Polokwane se swembad is regtig baie netjies, ek glo daar swem net so baie ander rasse, en dit word netjies en in stand gehou. Nicholas van der Nest Vir seker. Daar kan daar ook weer gala’s gehou word. Catherine Iveson Bezuidenhout Ja asb. Met ‘n opsigter en ‘n bekostigbare toegangsfooi.

Joey Maritz Dis ‘n moeilike een. Daar is ander wat nie weet dat ‘n swembad nie ‘n toilet is nie. Ek sou nie my kinders daar toelaat nie. Maar as dit goed beheer kan word en in ‘n positiewe manier gebruik kan word om die jong klomp uit die strate te hou, sal dit dalk ‹n goeie ding wees. Nico Cloete Hopelik word dit beter in stand gehou as Jetty3. Daar is nêrens waar mens ’n ou braaitjie of jou girl kan vat vir ‘n piekniek nie, so hopelik sal dit verander as die swembad reggemaak is. Monica Swanepoel Nee, laat hulle liewers die geld gebruik om ons paaie reg te maak. Thea Gerber Ja, dit sal goed wees. Ons het gereeld ons skoolkinders daarheen geneem om te swem. Erika Landman Oooo ja! En ek sal betaal ook om dit te gebruik! Christo Coetzee Glo almal kan benut daaruit. Privatiseer dit, dan sal hy in ‘n puik toestand bly. Kotie Oosthuyzen Swembad kan reggemaak word en moet in stand gehou word, maar self sal ek nie die fasiliteit gebruik nie.

Nou moet ons mense versigtig wees dat die swart pot nie die ketel verwyt nie... • Daar is nie ‘n verband tussen ‘n geldwaroof en ‘n oorsese belegging nie. Of daar is ‘n verband. Hoe dan nou? Is daar ‘n verband of is daar nie een nie. Die mense hoor ‘n mens moet maar by ‘n Leeu van Hong Kong gaan uitvind... • ‘n Jakkals is ‘n jakkals, maak nie saak of hy mak gemaak is of nie. Maar, hoor die mense, as ‘n jakkals in die water lêplek maak en dan skielik uitvind die water raak te diep, is daar moeilikheid, al het hy ook hoeveel boedery-ondervinding... • Die tierboskatte is besig om op te ruk om daai bosbokkie langs die rugbyveld ordentlik mak te maak...

As hulle nou verbykom, roep hulle, “kyk ma, sonder vrou”. Dit lyk of daar dalk meer rydingetjies as net fietse by hierdie sportssoort (sic, nogal baie sic) betrokke kan wees.

Vlieg sit alweer met verwondering en luister na die stories oor hoe daar nou weer geskarrel word om al die baiesukkels betyds in die Kaap te kry vir die Ingelse nuuspapiertjie se fietsresies. Dit klink of dit ‘n bietjie makliker gaan wees vir die wat nie plek bespreek het op Velvet Sky nie. Nietemin, dit het Vlieg weer laat dink aan die alombekende storie van die seuntjie wat leer fietsry het. Nadat sy pa die klein wieletjies agter afgehaal het kom hy die eerste keer om die blok en roep vir sy ma: “kyk ma, sonder wiele”. Toe hy die tweede keer om die blok kom is hy al beter gekonfyt met die fietsryery en begin kanse vat. Hy roep sy ma en sê: “kyk ma, sonder hande”. Toe hy die derde keer om die blok kom, roep hy met ietwat minder bravade as die vorige keer “kyk ma: thonder

Job losses are a disaster Some 4 800 jobs on farms in the Tzaneen and Hoedspruit areas have been confirmed lost after the unexpected 9,3% minimum wage increase (11,3% in the forestry sector) since February. Another 1 600 jobs are at risk as farmers have crops on the lands, prohibiting them to reduce their work force immediately. Many farmers have resorted to the department of labour in Polokwane for advice, as they simply can not make ends meet. The only advice from labour office officials, is to scale down or close shop if the minimum wage is unaffordable. The department is also adament that it will next year introduce a compulsary provident fund, for the employer’s account. This will be on top of the annual escalation in wages, expected to be between R200 and R250 per month. Mopani district has already suffered an estimated 32 000 job losses in agriculture over the last decade as a result of the disasterous land reform projects.

While few farm workers on these restition farms earn minimum wages, and child labour is rather common, the department of labour seems to be reluctant to visit or inspect these farmers. AgriSA has called on the minister of rural development and land reform, Mr Gugile Nkwinti, to intervene to save at least some of the jobs. “They show a much more responsible attitude towards the crisis than the local labour officials” says AgriSA deputy president, dr Theo de Jager. “But farmers must realise that we are facing permanent structural changes to the farming environment in the Lowveld. “Like with tea and coffee production, SA is losing its competativeness in the production of labour intensive agricultural produce like tomatoes and vegetables,” De Jager said. He added that these produce will probably in future be imported from neighbors with friendlier labour policies, such as Mozambique and Zambia.

Mense boos oor teer aan hul motors Motoriste wat verlede week op die R71 tussen Tzaneen en Letsitele op die stuk pad vol nat teer beland het, het ons behoorlik oorval met oproepe en klagtes. Talle motors het by die Sasol R71 ingetrek om hul motors by die motorwassery te laat skoon maak, terwyl baie petrol gekoop en hul motors self probeer skoonmaak het. Daar is soms behoorlik in matroostaal gespreek en motoriste wat nie hul woede kon beheer nie, is afgewissel deur dié wat moedeloos gevra het wat hulle kan doen. Daar was nuwe motors en oues, weeldemotors en die meer beskeie modelle, mans en vroue... Intussen het ‘n duikklopper gesê mense moet eerder diesel as petrol gebruik om teer van hul motors te verwyder. Hy sê dit is veiliger vir die verfwerk. Op die foto’s kan gesien word hoe sommige motors met “teerdrade” bedek is, terwyl an-

der behoorlik van die teer gedrup het. Klonte teer het op verskeie plekke op die perseel van die vulstasie gelê, waar motors gestop en die teer afgedrup het. Die padbouer het nou verseker dit sal nie weer gebeur nie.

Hoedspruit sê dankie Sewe weke na die verwoestende vloed bevind die mense van Hoedspruit hulself steeds in ‘n krisis met ondrinkbare kraanwater — en soms is daar vir dae aaneen in elk geval geen water in die pype nie. Hoedspruit se mense is steeds afhanklik van die goedheid van naburige dorpe, asook die mense van Suid-Afrika vir drinkwater — veral die luisteraars van Radio Jakaranda. Die kerkeforum van Hoedspruit het onlangs ‘n gesamentlike dankseggingdiens gereël. Hoedspruiters het in groot getalle hiervoor opgedaag, om hul dankbaarheid teenoor God en alle goedgesindes te betuig. Spesiale melding is gemaak van die onontbeerlike rol wat Lugmagbasis Hoedspruit en Hoedspruit Plaaswag tydens die noodreddings gespeel het. In die afgelope tyd het Hoedspruiters geleer hoe om baie spaarsamig met water te werk en ds Pieter Dorey van die NG Kerk Kampersrus het almal gevra om wanneer die waternood na normaal terugkeer, steeds spaarsamig met dié kosbare hulpbron om te gaan. Die vloed het Hoedspruit as ‘n gemeenskap duidelik sterker saamgesnoer en mense het geleer om mekaar te waardeer, te respekteer en te ondersteun. “Hoedspruit het nou die geleentheid om saam as ‘n familie vorentoe te gaan. Die grense tussen mense het geval, daar is nie meer ras nie en ons kan as ‘n gemeenskap vir die toekoms saam werk,” sê kol Andre Barends, die nuwe bevelvoerder van Lugmagbasis Hoedspruit wat met die vloed in sy nuwe posisie ‘gedoop’ is. Hy is letterlik aan die diep kant ingegooi met sy aankoms in Hoedspruit. — Lin Media/Kruger2Canyon

Padbouery

Die ingenieur wat die oorsigrol vir die padbouery aan die R71 rondom Tzaneen vertolk, het die afgelope week gedoen wat amptenare nie maklik doen nie. Hy het ons genooi, na aanleiding van verlede week se beriggewing oor die gemors met nat teer op ‘n stuk van die pad wat motoriste boos en verslae gehad het, om te kom gesels. Ons het sy uitnodiging met groot graagte aanvaar en inderdaad lekker ‘gekuier’. Maar ons dink nie dit was erg produktief nie. Ons het kliniese antwoorde gekry. Soos ‘n vriend sê, dit was ‘n politiek korrekte gesprek met politiek korrekte uitsprake. Ons verstaan nie die tegniese kant van so ‘n projek nie. Maar ons verstaan wat ander kundiges ons vertel en dit is dat dit ongekend is dat swaar padboumasjinerie vir dae lank botstil staan, dat nou al sowat vier maande gebou word aan 1,4 kilometer wat beskou word as ‘n projek wat nie ‘n minut langer as twee maande hoef te duur nie, ensovoorts. Ons sukkel natuurlik om al die betrokke partye se kommentaar te kry, sodat mens die totale prentjie kan bou— maar het nou opgegee, want ons kan nie RAL (Roads Agency Limpopo) se mense se arrogansie verwerk nie, ewe min dié van die provinsie se paaiedepartement. Dalk probeer ons weer... as ons weer krag het vir dié amptenare.

Museums important Jurgen Witt of Tzaneen writes: I refer to an article in your newspaper towards the end of last year. In reply to this article I am enclosing a list of museums situated within the political boundaries of the Limpopo Province. The present state of them is not known. The majority of them were established with the view of preserving a vanishing culture. With great regret it must be stated that the present dispensation does not do enough to preserve their own material heritage. The Tzaneen Museum is the only one where not only the cultural material is preserved, but also the verbal, by way of narrating stories passed on for generations. Cultural events should never provide a platform for political talks like that held by the premier, Cassel Mathale, according to the article mentioned. Maybe it is true that few politicians have a cultural background or they are suffering from a serious lack of a broader vision that is needed for “Nation Building”. This of course entails a flawless knowledge of history. But because both are wanting, I am inclined to think that some politicians are driven by a never ending hatred mixed with an inferiority complex. Leaders of this calibre, like the premier, are not representing the population they are supposed to be heading. Their attitude must lead to further the objectives of radicalism from both sides of the spectrum. Culture is something sacred. It grew with the various nations, or different ethnicities. It is the cohesive factor that keeps a nation together. A variety of different cultures can live next to each other, but politics are like a foreign object inside a healthy body, that is not needed in a world of peaceful coexistence. Museums are providing the venue to bring different cultures together. Maybe this is one of the reasons why they are so seriously neglected by the political criterion that is only providing a tunnel vision. • The list of museums can be obtained from Mr Witt at the Tzaneen Museum (next to Lannie Motors) — Editor

Letters ...and nothing but the truth Rene Pohl, DA councillor, Greater Tzaneen Municipality writes: Speaking on the occasion of the opening of Tzaneen’s Council for 2012, Mayor Dikeledi Mmetle made some unfortunate statements about the performance of the Democratic Alliance in this municipality which cannot be left unchallenged. When public officials assume office, they take to oath to be truthful in their engagement with the public. However what Mayor Mmetle did — we believe in a deliberate way — goes against the oath she must uphold. Firstly, she read from a speech which was different on an important aspect from the one that had been given to the public. In the speech that she distributed to the public, she mentioned that all Ward Committees in Tzaneen were functional “except in Ward 15 and 16” because, she continued to state “they are seen to be controlled by DA”. Nothing can be further from the truth. The DA in Tzaneen does not control Wards 15 and 16 but we are in control of Wards 14 and 15. This serious allegation against the DA is purposely omitted in her own copy from which she reads. The reason for this omission is clear; we would have exposed her lies on the spot. To further expose the Mayor’s untruths, these Ward Committees are not dysfunctional but they are operating effectively and are responsive to the needs of the communities they serve. In fact, Ward Committee for Ward 15 had passed a motion of no confidence on its secretary because she was not effective in discharging her duties. She is now replaced with a hardworking individual. We are not surprised by Mayor Mmetle’s attempts to tarnish the image of our party in this manner. Her municipality, after it had refused several times, had just been forced by the MEC for Local Government and Housing, Mr Lekganyane, to allocate executive seats that ac-

crued to the DA as a result of its electoral performance in Tzaneen. We demand that Mayor Mmetle must publicly apologies to the DA and to the people of Tzaneen for deliberately misleading them. Furthermore we challenge her to table the minutes of every Ward Committee in Tzaneen, including those run by the ruling party and the action steps they took to affect service delivery. The public must see for itself which Ward Committee is not functioning. It is time the Mayor understands her role — she should perform her duties “a-political”.

A shame

Wayne from Tzaneen writes by e-mail: I visited Aqua Park Spar recently and saw a car pull into a disabled parking. A young man in his late 20’s early 30’s got out with 2 passengers. I confronted him albeit in a decent and respectful manner with regards to this whilst there was an abundance of parking available. He told me that he was disabled and had a letter to prove it! His 2 passengers did not engage with me and kept at a distance as if they were in ashamed that he had stopped in the disabled parking bay. He appeared to be very able bodied and there was no disabled sticker on the vehicle. I challenge him to prove his disability by posting the said letter in the paper? This kind of arrogance and disregard for the disabled needs to be addressed by the management of the various complexes in Tzaneen. I have a friend who owns several malls in Johannesburg and they have a firm policy: the security guards control access to the disabled parking bays and should one refuse to obey, they lock the wheels and a R500 fine is imposed. I was also at the new Lifestyle Centre and was appalled to see that 90% of the disabled parking spots were occupied by expensive SUV’s, MPV’s and German brand sedans. I hasten to add that at least two official government vehicles were seen, one occupied by two very able bodied gentlemen from the department of trade and industries. Lets run a “name and shame” campaign for the next six months and see if we can re-educate these offenders?

`n Paar opmerkings oor die 20 000 lidmate wat, volgens die statistiek van die kerkjaarboek, die afgelope jaar weg is uit die NG Kerk: Sekularisasie word as die grootste oorsaak aangedui in briewe en artikels in die media. Wat is sekularisasie? Bondig saamgevat, kan ons sê sekularisme is `n lewens- en wêreldbeskouing waar God al meer op die agtergrond geskuif word. `n Teoloog het dit as volg geïllustreer: As jy vroeër jare na `n dorp toe aangery gekom het, was die eerste ding wat jy gesien het die kerktoring. Die kerk het in die middel van die dorp gestaan, want dit was die belangrikste gebou. As jy vandag nader kom aan `n moderne stad, is die eerste wat jy sien die groot wolkekrabbers, want “koop en verkoop” is die belangrikste. Dit is sekularisasie. Tog is dit nie die volle waarheid nie, aangesien baie mense wat nie meer kerk toe gaan nie, tog in God glo. Hulle redeneer net dat hulle God by hul huis dien en waar hulle stil word in die natuur; hulle is betrokke by die nood van die samelewing en luister na preke op TV. Sommige mense ervaar dat die kerk vir hulle irrelevant geword het, al glo hulle in God. Sommige het `n geloofwaardigheidsprobleem met die kerk. Dit is ook so dat mense al meer geneig is om hul naweke anders in te rig. Mense is in staat, en soms selfs verplig, om naweke weg te gaan en te gaan ontspan. Wat word dan van jou kerkbywoning en selfs -lidmaatskap? `n Belangrike vraag is seker: Wat kan `n mens in `n erediens doen/kry wat jy nêrens anders kan doen/kry nie? Preke kan jy op TV kyk. Kennis kan jy opdoen deur geestelike boeke te lees. Die liturgie in die erediens behoort `n ruimte daar te stel waar die heilige teenwoordigheid van God op `n besondere manier beleef word. Dít kan jy nie voor die TV kry nie en ook nie onder `n boom nie. Verder is die viering van die Heilige Nagmaal in die erediens ook uniek. Die gevaar is dat gemeentes allerlei dinge sal doen om mense te lok, maar die kerk kan nie meeding met die vermaak wat die wêreld bied nie. Die kerk is die liggaam van Christus en die teenwoordigheid van Christus moet daar ervaar word. Dit sal interessant wees om te sien hoe ander kerke in SA se statistiek lyk. Dit is sekerlik nie net die NG Kerk wat lidmate verloor nie. Die nuutste statistiek van Amerika1 wat ek kon kry, wys dat die Katolieke kerk, wat die grootste kerk in Amerika is, se lidmaattal toegeneem het, terwyl die grootste Protestantse kerke, selfs die Southern Baptists, se lidmaattal gekrimp het. Wie in Christus glo, is deel van die kerk, want die kerk is die liggaam van Christus. Ons het mekaar nodig om saam sy Lig te laat skyn. “Ek in my klein hoekie en jy in joune” is dalk baie gerieflik, maar is nie Bybels nie. Die bloed en die liggaam van Christus bind ons saam tot `n unieke familie wat op `n unieke manier saamkom om God te aanbid. Mooi naweek! 1 http://www.washingtontimes.com/weblogs/beliefblog/2010/feb/12/latest-church-growth-stats-in/

Sies vir julle!

‘n Leser verwys in ‘n brief hiernaas na die onbedagsaamheid van mense wat op parkeerruimtes wat vir gestremdes gemerk en bedoel is, stop en dan nog skaamteloos daaroor wil redeneer. Dit is ongelukkig ‘n alledaagse gesig in Tzaneen. Dit is hartseer om te sien hoe verswakte bejaardes en ander gestremdes soms sukkel om oor die weg te kom, terwyl springlewendige mense ongeërg die parkeerblokke beset.

Villagers suffer as they have no clean water Access to clean water, essential for health and human dignity, is denied to a number of villages in the Greater Tzaneen area. Ms Margot McNeil, a councillor, has visited several communities who have told her of their problems. At Petanenge (Ward 24) the situation is critical. The two reservoirs built during the Gazankulu era, which should receive water from Nkowankowa via the Dan reservoir, are not in use. The five boreholes are inoperative as the pumping equipment has been stolen. The only accessible water comes from a water hole on the Letsitele River which is below the sewage conduit from Nkowankowa. The water is greenish and pungent. Residents say they use the water for washing but must boil it before drinking. The other alternative is to buy water from private sellers at R1 per 20 litre container. Some residents have private boreholes as do the three schools in the area, but the underground water, according to McNeil, is not safe for human consumption. The ward councillor is Ms Lydia Mhlongo. The water problem would have been solved by a water purification plant installed nearby from funds donated by a Rotary club in Canada. The plant has a capacity of 12,5 megalitres/ day and it was planned that Petanenge would be served with purified water via a pipeline that runs close to the access road to the settlement. It is in perfect order but is not in use. This plant is currently operating well below capacity and pumps purified water into a tank above Letsitele for distribution to 600 residents. The purification plant and the installation of piping was intended for the use

of people in urgent need of clean water. The plaque recording that this was a gift from Rotary Canada to the people of SA was removed some time ago. Hoveni (Ward 26), the village of ex-GTM mayor OJ Mushwana, has some 4 000 residents and two schools, but the two boreholes have not been converted to electricity as planned in January 2010. One borehole is functioning, driven by a diesel pump since 1994 — but the piping is adequate for only half the community. The second borehole is inoperative as the diesel pump has been removed for safe-keeping against theft since the door to the pump house is not secure. Only half the residents in Hoveni receive piped water, and that is only every second day. The Ward Councillor here is Mr Mahori. The water supply in Runnymede (Ward 6) is not adequate. Two storage tanks are without a water source. One borehole activated by a hand pump designed to supply water for cattle, is not in use. Tickyline (Ward 29) and Navane (Ward 30) are without piped water due to the supply pipe being damaged by a grader nearly one year ago. Water is obtained from the Letsitele River, some women having to convey water in wheelbarrows to their homes up to 3 km far. Water is also available for purchase at 50c per 10 litres. At Mogoloboto (Ward 17) the two reservoirs previously received water from Dan Village but the pump was stolen. Now water comes directly to the settlement, but the pump at the Oloam Christian Church is broken and the water point fifteen minutes away leaks water on to the muddy street.

Schools from the Nkowankowa circuit had their hard work in 2011 rewarded at an excellence awards ceremony, with 78 teachers who were awarded certificates for achieving a 100% pass rate in their subjects. Several schools also received trophies for their achievements in extramural sports. The top school in the circuit was St

George’s College, followed by Meridian College and then Magoza High School. Ms Dorethea Gerber (principal of Meridian), Mr GN Rikhosto (headmaster of Magoza) and Ms Joya Varughese (the principal of St George’s) are seen here with their certificates/trophies. On the far right is Ms Doreen Manzini, the Nkowankowa circuit manager.

Giyani has outgrown water supply Water in Giyani remains a big challenge despite the recent good summer rains. According to Giyani mayor Pat Hlungwani, the rain has failed to fill up the two dams that supply water to the community of Giyani. “Since five years ago our dams have never

been full,” he said, adding that “Nsami Dam is below 40%, while Middle Letaba is less than 6% full. This time of the year Nsami should be at 60% plus.” He said the municipality was eying the possibility of using boreholes and other means as temporary measures to keep water running in the taps, while the municipality awaits the main project to draw water from Nandoni. The mayor appealed Women at Mtititi village, Giyani, are pushing to the community to wheelbarrows to fetch water at the nearest village. stop wasting water.

The GTM’s Letsitele Library offered a love poem competition to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Children could enter any poem they wrote about love and then stand the chance to win a prize. Prizes were awarded to the winners of the three different age groups. All three first prize winners were from St George’s College. Clockwise from above left are Antoinette Komana (gr 11), Crystal Mlondobozi (gr 6) and Yolanda Ndlovu (gr 9).

SLC are proving themselves debating professionals with several of their teams participating and excelling at debating tournaments. The senior Stanford Lake College team recently participated in and won the Polokwane debating League Tournament. The members who were awarded winners medals are Puleng Mathabatha, Parth Vaya, Khensdani de Klerk and Candice Petty. LEFT: Stanford Lake College’s debating A-team enjoyed a convincing win over Capricorn High School in the opening round of the Mayor’s Cup competition. Proposing the motion, University registration stampede: The Department of Education should act urgently to guarantee career advice for all young people, Michelle Chitate, Puleng Mathabathe, Farai Chigumadzi and their floor of fellow students dominated proceedings and emerged as the winners. Puleng Mathabathe (left) was voted the best speaker of the debate.

RIGHT: The gr 9’s of Stanford Lake College went on a hike and raft trek. The first four days of the trip were spent following the footsteps of Louis Trichardt over the Northern Drakensberg. The students spent a night on the spectacular Christmas Plateau watching the stars and reminiscing on the ups and downs of the day’s trek. Their last day on foot led them down into the Olifants gorge where, dusty and hot, they left their packs, picked up their paddles and rafts and set off for an aquatic adventure. The rafting section took them through the gorge scenery with perfect sandy campsites and evenings around the fire. The last day on the Olifants was filled with laughter and excitement as the students fearlessly tackled the series of rapids that took them to their exit point. Everyone enjoyed this wonderful and unique experience.

This week’s fitness tip Ettienne van Wyngaardt

(Fitness specialist) It’s very hard to stay positive and motivated if everyone around you is negative. 70% of your life is spent at work. That’s why it is so important to create a positive attitude at work. People should stop looking for excuses and start looking for solutions. It’s up to you to make that change at your work. It could be anything from having a competition to see who can lose the most weight in one month, challenging another company to a fitness event or organise a team building event at Thabametsi. Remember, a positive attitude is highly contageuous and you can change many lives.

Die Chameleon Binneshuise Sportsentrum nooi almal hartlik uit om die nuwe binnehuise hokkiebaan op die proef te kom stel. Die koste beloop R25 per speler en ’n span het vier of vyf spelers. Wedstryde word saans tussen 18:00 en 22:00 gespeel en toernooi oor naweke. Chameleon beplan ook ’n hokkieliga. Wedstryde sal tussen 15 en 20 minute lank wees. Bring u eie hokkiestok, balle sal voorsien word. Die sentrum is op die skouterrein. Kontak Marisé by 079 622 5525 of b.marise@yahoo.com, of Danielle by 083 656 2001.

Dr Annecke hou weer Bonanza Antjies se Loskop-hengelkompetisie nou een van die gewildstes Jean Aucamp

jean@bulletin.us.com

Die Laerskool Dr Annecke in Letsitele het onlangs weer een ’n baie suksesvolle hengelkompetisie as geldinsamelingsprojek vir die skool by Forever Resorts Loskopdam gehou. Die kompetisie, wat as die Loskop Bonanza bekend staan, is vanjaar vir die vyfde keer aangebied en staan nou onder die geesdriftige hengelaars as een van die grotes op die hengelkalender bekend. Pryse ter waarde van meer as R500 000 was by vanjaar se kompetisie op die spel. ‘n Allemintige 475 boot- en oewerhengelaars (154 bote) het ingeskryf om een van die twee volledig toegeruste motorbote ter waarde van R180 000 en R160 000 te wen. Die dag se sukses is deur talle deelnemers aan die fantastiese pryse en die seepgladde organisasie en administrasie toegeskryf. Die pragtige geriewe en vermaak by die oord het bygedra dat die hele gesin kon ontspan, terwyl die hengelaars hul vernuf ingespan het om die grotes aan die hoek te kry. Die kurperspesie is vanjaar laat rus en is dit nie vir pryse in aanmerking geneem nie. Vier spesies kon gevang word. Hengelaars was oor die algemeen in hul skik dat die kompetisie ook bydra tot die bewusmaking van die bewaring van ekostelsels. Die vang en loslating van vis is ook in die kompetisie aangemoedig. Ideale sonskynweer het vir goeie vangste gesorg en die uitslag was tot aan die einde in die weegskaal. ‘n Jong dame, Janiene J van Rensburg, het die gesoute hengelaars op hul neuse laat kyk

en weggestap met ‘n fantastiese Noverone motorboot ter waarde R160 000. Die ander motorboot kon egter nie gewen word nie. Volgens mnr Gerhard Venter, Dr Annecke se hoof, word die sukses van die dag aan die onderskeie borge en die hulp en ondersteuning van die ouers en onderwysers toegeskryf.

Volgens mnr Pieter Vermaak, die organiseerder, word daar volgende jaar ‘n Loskopfees saam met die kompetisie beplan, wat vir die hele gesin nog meer pret en ontspanning sal bied. Nóg groter pryse word beplan om dit uiteindelik die grootste en gewildste hengelkompetisie te maak.
