• Fire & Rescue Services in Mopani •
‘n Reusagtige swart mamba van heelwat meer as twee meter is Woensdag in Tzaneen betrap en vankant gemaak, voordat dit mense kon bedreig. Die slang is in die kantoorkompleks in Peacestraat waar onder andere dr JeanMarie Joynt, Cook for Life, die SA Bloeddiens en ander sake gevestig is, deur mnre Chris Gouws en Sam Shiviri van Northern Security om die lewe gebring. Inwoners word gewaarsku dat slange na die versengende hitte na die dorp kon “gevlug” het.
Time bomb
The fire function of the Mopani District Municipality’s Fire and Rescue Services is in such a poor state that it is being referred to as a ticking time bomb. Vehicles and equipment are in such a bad condition and so old that they can no longer be called serviceable. There is also a critical shortage of fire fighting and rescue staff and it is said that Mopani will not be able to survive a major crisis. To add insult to injury, the MDM is also in dire straits as far as money is concerned and staff have not been paid yet for January (they were supposed to have their salaries in their bank accounts on Friday 23 January). At the centre of the crisis is the MDM’s controversial municipal manager, Mr Tim Maake. His immediate suspension is now demanded by workers of the MDM. Turn to page 11 for a full and all together alarming report about the crisis of the MDM.

Vlieg is bly. Baie bly! Vlieg is baie bly dat hy nie meer maaiers in die huis het nie. Hy het ongelukkig nog ‘n paar papies, maar daar is darem lig aan die einde van die tonnel. Dit beteken dat Vlieg tans huidiglik is met die primêre skool. Terloops, huidiglik is deesdae ‘n erkende woord in onse Taal, hoewel Vlieg nog rillings kry elke keer as hy die woord hoor. Gelukkig gaan hy dit nou minder hoor. Vlieg se maaiers het ook net betyds papies geword voordat die skoolmeester dalk visvangklasse in die sillabus (leerplan) insluit. Vlieg sou darem wou gehad het dat sy (voormalige) maaiers moes leer om die sinker en aas ‘n bietjie dieper in Sodwana se see te gooi, as net tot in die vlak golfies waar ander mense se maaiers dalk in ‘n hoek kan trap. Seker nie ‘n enkele byt gehad nie! Vlieg dink verder in die besonder vandeesmaand aan al die pappies van verlede jaar se matruuks, in hierdie maand waar die meeste van hulle die nes behoort te verlaat. Mammie sal seker die een of ander tyd ophou tjank. Dit lê seker nog vir Vlieg ook voor! En Vlieg is bang. Baie bang! Met die hulp van ene Nic Spaull van die Maties, Vlieg is dankbaar, kom hy af op die toespraak van die agbare LUR vir Basiese Onderwys van die KwaaiZulus-van-die-voormalige-
Natal, me. Nelisiwe Peggy Nkonyeni, wat sy gelewer het met die beskaammaking van Ouma Lucy se 2014-matruukuitslae van haar provinsie. Vlieglesers moet asseblief nou aandag gee! Hou in gedagte dat sy die hoof is van die onderwysdepartement van die provinsie met die meeste voormalige leerlinge, nou leerders, in die land. ‘n Hele 2 901 697. In 6 151 skole, ook die meeste per provinsie in die land. Let verder daarop dat sy die grootste provinsiale begroting in die hele land bestuur, naamlik R39,4 miljard. Sê sy: “As I conclude, I revisit the thoughts that guide my innermost conscience in the execution of my responsibilities. Visions of an ideal education system dominate my thinking. In the realm of my thought world, I wish… that our system could have graphologists who would analyse the uniqueness of each child’s handwriting and channel them accordingly… That philosophy could be a subject offered at a basic education level so that the system could produce critical thinkers; that chess lessons could be offered to all mathematics learners in order to improve their mathematical schools; and that our system could train and produce phrenologists who would study the shape of a child’s head at Grade R so that we channel the children accordingly” Genuine, Vlieglesers sal weet dat hy ‘n ding het oor die waarheid, en dis sowaar wat sy gesê het! Oor skaakspeel sal Vlieg volstaan dat

• Numerous street lights in Tzaneen are out. Peddlers do as they please and are increasing by the day. Potholes in the streets are worsening and increasing daily. Open public spaces maintenance is not done and the play equipment in parks are rusted and poses a danger to children. Trees that are felled or that died due to old age are not replaced. Walls and lampposts are littered with advertisements. Taxis stop where and when they please to pick up or drop off passengers. Motorists disregard amber and even red lights... et cetera. Can we expect order and law abidance to reign again? What do you think?

dit vir pissies is wat nie spiere het nie, en oor filosofie dat dit by heelwat ouer andersdenkende andersdenkendes, soos Vlieg tuishoort. Maar wat de donner is graphologists en phrenologists? Vlieg moes sy vry vertaling gebruik en sy betroubare Verklarende Handwoordeboek van die Afrikaanse Taal nader sleep: gra-fo-lo-gie’ s.nw. Studie van handskrif; kuns om uit iemand se handskrif sy karakter, geaardheid en aanleg te lees; fre-no-lo-gie’ s.nw. Teorie dat ‘n mens se geestes- of karaktereienskappe in die vorm van sy skedel geopenbaar word; Hierdie pseudo-wetenskappe van die agbare minister, word nie net deur Vlieg nie, maar deur regte slim mense, geag om in dieselfde klas te val as astrologie (die sterre voorspel), mediese kwakke soos bossiedokters en tradisionele genesers, towenary en ander okkulte taboes. Dit is dieselfde agbare minister wat in haar vorige termyn as die KwaaiZulus se minister van Ongesondheid, anti-retrovirale middels verban het en eerder die gebruik van uBhejane, ‘n bossiekonkoksie, gepromoveer het as die behandeling van HIV/Vigs — en daardeur duisende mense se lewens gekos en die mediese wetenskap beskaam het. As die maaiers nou al in gr R aan hul handskrif (in gr R, bid Vlieg aan) en die vorm van hul koppe in sekere rigtings gestuur gaan word, word Vlieg net al hoe blyer oor sy papies! Red ‘n nasie!

• Talle straatligte in Tzaneen is dood. Die smouse doen wat hulle wil en raak daagliks meer. Die slaggate in die strate raak daagliks erger en meer. Sypaadjies raak gevaarlik vir voergangers, want dit word nie herstel nie. Oop ruimtes word nie versorg nie en parke se toerusting is opgeroes en gevaarlik vir kinders. Bome wat afgekap word of weens ouderdom omval, word nie vervang nie. Al wat ‘n muur en ‘n paal is word onwettig beplak met allerhande advertensies. Taxis stop waar hulle wil, om passasiers open af te laai. Motoriste steur hulle nie meer aan geel ligte nie en selfs rooi verkeersligte word geïgnoreer... ensovoorts. Kan ons verwag dat orde en wetsgehoorsaamheid weer eendag sal heers? Wat dink jy?

Low sulphur diesel now in Tzaneen
The future of the Tzaneen Dam will be in the spotlight today, when councillors of the GTM and certain role players will discuss a resource management plan to control the utilization of the water resource and the surrounding environment. The aim is to find ways which will promote community participation and environmental sustainability of the dam, and to unlock socioeconomic potential of the water resource for recreational use. Mnr Attie Bester, bekende oud-burgemeester van Tzaneen en wyd bekend in veral landboukringe, tegniese onderwys en opleiding, sport (hy was op sy dag ‘n rugbyskeidsregter) en ook as kultuuren kerkman, sterk tuis aan, nadat hy ‘n operasie in die MediClinic Tzaneen ondergaan het. Hy is Dinsdag weer in die hospitaal opgeneem, maar na behandeling gou weer ontslaan.
New vehicles for Tzaneen SAPS The SAPS say they are now at the top of their game after a number of new vehicles have been allocated to all police stations in the Tzaneen Cluster. SAPS Tzaneen Cluster spokesperson Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe promises that with the new vehicles, the police’s response time will improve. “We received a fleet of vehicles; and we will make sure the vehicles are not abused and used for personal purposes,” he told Bulletin. Ngoepe urges members of the community to report any incidence of abuse of Police vehicles that they notice. Rethabile Maake

Die Langs Die Oever Boeredag, wat vanjaar bemark sou word as die “grootste landboufees in die Noorde”, is van die baan. Die fees sou die vyfde agtereenvolgende jaar op 17 en 18 April op die plaas Montrose van mnr Kallie Erasmus in die Letsitele-distrik gehou word. Die voorsitter van die reëlingskomitee, mnr Dawie Grobbelaar, sê die “fees” is afgestel omdat geen geskikte datum daarvoor gekry kon word nie. “Na verlede jaar se nat toestande het ons reeds besluit om vanjaar se byeenkoms met ‘n maand aan te skuif, maar weens bot-
sende belange in die programme van die topbestuur is besluit om die fees af te stel. Dit sou ook inmeng met oestye van sitrus en avokado’s, wat dan reeds aan die gang sal wees.” Die stigterslede van Langs Die Oever het ‘n paar jaar gelede voorsien dat die boeredag sou groei tot ‘n “Nampo van die Noorde”. Daar is egter sprake van verstandhoudings onder belanghebbendes wat intussen erg vertroebel het. Grobbelaar sê egter die fees gaan volgende jaar volstoom voort. Daar is nog sowat tien dae gelede kennis-
gewings uitgestuur om die “fees” vir vanjaar te adverteer. Daar is sprake dat van die belanghebbendes meen die “fees” moet met die Letaba Skou saamsmelt, om een “ordentlike” landbouskou te hou. Die Bulletin het al twee jaar gelede gevra of dit die moeite werd is, veral met ‘n stram ekonomie, om twee “landbouskoue” in/vir Tzaneen aan te bied. Een van die klagtes van potensiële uitstallers in die landboumark gaan juis oor kostes en sakelui het al opgemerk dat hulle dit nie kan bekostig om hul werktuie so ver uit die dorp na die Letsitele-plaas te neem nie.
Vliegtuigdief(we) dalk eersdaags vasgekeer Die net rondom diewe wat by ‘n vliegtuig op die Tzaneen Vliegveld ingebreek en vluginstrumente uitgebreek en gesteel het, span stywer. Die polisie het positiewe identifikasie van vingerafdrukke en wag nou vir die uitslae van forensiese ondersoeke.
Verskeie ooggetuies het al vorendag gekom, en elkeen wat by die vliegveld was, is geïdentifiseer. Die betrokkenheid en rol van medepligtiges word ook ondersoek, en ‘n man van Phalaborwa is tans ook onder die vergrootglas. Die vliegtuig het reg langs die
werkwinkel gestaan, waar vliegtuie herstel en ander gebou word. Daar is ‘n uiters beperkte vraag na vliegtuiginstrumente en min mense op die vliegveld beskik oor die kennis en gereedskap om instrumente te verwyder. Die Burgerlike Lugvaartower-
Valentine’s
heid word ook by die ondersoek betrek. Teen die agtergrond van die hoë aantal noodlottige vliegongelukke die afgelope tyd, word sabotasie soos die in ‘n baie ernstige lig beskou. Diefstal, saakbeskadiging en bedrog word ondersoek.

Genl-maj Maggy Mathebula, die bevelvoerder van die SA Polisiediens se Tzaneen Cluster (groter Polisiedistrik wat verskeie polsiekantore insluit), is steeds in die hoësorgeenheid van die MediClinic Tzaneen. Sy is buite gevaar, maar medici sê sy het baie en goeie rus nodig. Mathebula word behandel vir ‘n bakteriese infeksie. Brig Christine Bensch, die bevelvoerder van die Tzaneen Polisiekantoor, neem in Mathebula se plek waar. Die verwagting is dat Mathebula later vanjaar die tuig gaan neerlê.
Owners of diesel vehicles will be delighted to hear that ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD) is now available at Sasol filling stations in Tzaneen. ULSD is, in a nutshell, cleaner diesel that has been refined so that its sulphur content is a maximum of fifteen (15) parts per million (ppm) or less. The ULSD that is now available in Tzaneen has a rating of only 10 ppm. This is at least 97% cleaner than the standard highway-use diesel fuel, which contains an average of 500 ppm of sulphur. Sulphur, a natural part of the crude oil from which diesel fuel is derived, is one of the key causes of particulates or soot in diesel. Soot is the main culprit of diesel engines’ noxious black exhaust fumes, and is among the prime contributors to air pollution. ULSD is thus aimed at lowering diesel engines’ harmful exhaust emissions and improving air quality. It has been the standard in Europe for several years. ULSD enables the new generation of diesel vehicles to meet the same strict emission standards as gasoline-powered vehicles.

Challenging the law(s) Not so long ago, during an informal discussion in our offices, as senior Bulletin journalist expressed grave concern about “the fact that South Africa has become a lawless society” — only to be corrected by a junior colleague saying that “we have laws and thus it can’t be a matter of lawlessness, but rather of people not respecting (or fearing) the laws of the country”. This truth — that people seem to have lost all fear of or respect for the law — is to be witnessed in ou area as well, on a daily basis. Motorists, developers, contractors, builders, hawkers, pedestrians... name them, don’t hesitate to ignore laws and by-laws and law enforcement officers (those with clean hands!) are being challenged head-on when they dare to apply the law or to promote orderliness. We have indeed become a law challenging society and the results (as have just been seen in Soweto and other townships in the Jo’burg area) could further destroy our democracy. At the heart of the problem is political leaders’ lack of will to promote respect for the law, and to have the law being enforced withou fear or favour. It’s saddening to see a great country being slowly ruined by a citizenry who abuse the law, evade the law and simply ignore it in on almost every level of society.
It was such a beautiful Tuesday morning… that it persuaded Elder and Sister Campbell of the Church of the Latter Day Saints in Circle Road, Tzaneen, to give the special information sign on the pavement a new coating, without knowing of the presence of a curious cameraman.
Verlies en die kind Me Margie van Tonder skryf vandag verder oor spelterapie en spesifiek oor die gevolge van verlies vir die kind. Kontak haar by 084 414 6166 of 015 307 5029. Kinders vorm ‘n band met volwassenes weens hul behoefte aan veiligheid en sekuriteit. Wanneer so ‘n belangrike volwassene van die toneel verdwyn, verlang die kind en fokus intens op die verlies. Rusteloosheid, ongeorganiseerdheid, smart, angs en protestering oor die verlies kan voorkom. Hoe hegter die band met die volwassene hoe meer intens is die roureaksies. Die 2-5 -jarige vorm al hegte bande met die volwassene en ervaar die verlies meer intens. Kinders ervaar dieselfde emosies tydens rou as volwassenes — hul tree dalk net anders op. Nog simptome: Rou en verlies in die vroeë
kindfase (1-3-jariges) kan meebring dat kinders meer afhanklik raak en minder wil ondersoek instel en eksperimenteer . Dit is hul ervaring van skeiding wat onsekerheid meebring. Huil en aandagsoek kan nog ñ simptoom wees. Die jong kind kan nie verduur om vir lang tye te rou nie en wissel dit af met spel of droom. Die jong kind is op sy kwesbaarste om emosionele - en gedragspro-bleme op te doen omdat hulle die minste persoonlike hulpbronne tot hulle beskikking het. Angs, vrees, skeidingsangs/klouerige gedrag, blaas en stoelgangprobleme, regressie en geïrriteerdheid kan ook simptome wees. Kinders kan hulself maklik blameer vir die verlies. Verliese in die kinderjare sluit die volgende in: • Verhoudings: dood of afwesigheid van n persoon of dier; • Omgewing: verlies as
So much is said today Do we still have room for Ladies & Gentlemen in society? about the character of So I have heard a couple too many people (men) say they hear feminists and the gender equality nonsense, but they would still like women to be ladies. This made me think, are these gendered social classes still relevant in society and importantly, what does it mean to be a Lady or a Gentleman? I use capital initials to separate the classes from the general reference to all women or men. Back in the days — at least as far back as the 1700s, a gentleman, according to the literature of the time, was essentially a man with a considerable income (middle class).

Hantering: Kinders moet eintlik meer steun as volwassenes in rou ontvang omdat kinders nog nie aan hul emosies kan uiting gee nie en nie die situasie verstaan nie.

a gentleman; however, back then, the character was arguably meaningless without financial back-up. For example, early in Charles Dickens’ David Copperfield, David tries to console little Em’ly, an orphan, about the loss of her parents by relating the loss of his own father. To show David the fault of his comparison, little Em’ly says, “Besides, your father was a gentleman and your mother is a lady; and my father was a fisherman and my mother was a fisherman’s daughter, and my uncle Dan is a fisherman.”
Jesus’ life here on earth can be divided into five phases: Infancy Preparation Popularity Passion Risen Life If we use these phases as we study the life of Christ here on earth, perhaps, we can better understand what He actually did for us. We were not there during His Infancy, Preparation, Popularity or Passion, but we are part of His Risen life, if we have accepted Christ into our lives. He gave us the guidelines during His life here on earth. He lived on earth as a human and therefore He experienced all we experience, but He believed in His Father and the direction He gave Him. We too need to believe in the same direction that He gives us. This takes a tremendous amount of faith, which for many of us is or seems impossible. We are living in a corrupt world, a world where there

are so many pressures to conform to what is popular at that specific time, otherwise we may be considered as not “with it”. Yet with all we receive from our Heavenly Father, we can still achieve this and much more. We need only to believe we have the talents which He gave us to grow in faith. He is with us every step of the way. Jesus was also considered by some as “weird”. He often did not fit in with those who considered themselves the “elite”, so we need not to worry what others think of us, provided we are following Jesus’ example. Paul in his letter to the Romans (Romans 2:12) tells us how to act. “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — His good, pleasing and perfect will.”

NY also bans styrofoam New York mayor Bill de Blasio announced a ban on the sale and use of styrofoam cups, food containers and packing material. polystyrene (EPS) is not a recyclable product. The new law prohibits food service establishments, stores and manufacturers from possessing, selling or offering single-service EPS foam articles or polystyrene loosefill packaging in that city. De Blasio was reported to be optimistic about the ban’s environmental impact. It is expected to keep nearly 30 000 tonnes of EPS waste out of the city’s landfills and streets. In 2011 California’s senate voted to phase out the use of styrofoam in that

The Uncle Dan (Mr Peggoty) little Em’ly refers to here is a very kind and selfless man who adopted her and another orphan, Ham, respectively when their parents died at sea. He lives in a small boat-turnedhouse by the sea in Yarmouth, where he fishes and takes care of his family. The family includes a Mrs Gummidge, the widow of his once boat partner who also died at sea. However, although in this case Mr

state by 2014. The common styrofoam container is incredibly effective at keeping warm things warm and cool things cool and it is extraordinarily cheap. “Studies have shown that styrofoam accounts for as much as 15% of stormwater litter, and it’s the second-most prevalent type of beach debris. Quite apart from the disposal problems it presents to local authorities, due to its light weight, the material breaks down into beads and can be carried long distances on winds and ocean currents, wreaking havoc on wildlife.”
Peggoty — the brother of David’s maidservant (Clara) Peggoty — is “as good as gold and as true as steel,” as Peggoty describes him, he is too poor to be a Gentleman. It is thus not by habit that David introduces Mr Murdstone — a very “grave”, “cold” and abusive business-man who later marries his mother — as a Gentleman. The term was by many means a classist term and had very little to do with one’s good demeanour. A Lady, on the other hand, was a woman married to a man of high rank. The books of Jane Austen ex-
tensively discuss the nature of Ladies. Moreover, perhaps unlike Gentlemen, Ladies mainly subscribed to a certain air of demeanour. In Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth is criticised by the ladies of Netherfield for walking a long distance in mud to go and attend to her sick sister. This was arguably in scrutiny of her eligibility to be married to a noble man and become a Lady. Ladies were instead somewhat immobile. They would organise their households, but they had servants to do the physical work. Are the terms things we still want to embrace in society?

Skooldrag: Steek op jul hande vir ‘n Ja of ‘n Nee Hoof van ‘n baie spesiale skool skryf: Skooldrag is gereeld aan die begin van ‘n nuwe jaar in die nuus — en so gereeld as wat dit koerante en selfs tydskrifte se nuuskolomme haal, so gereeld is daar die mense wat daarvoor is en die wat daarteen is. Diegene wat vir skooldrag is, wys daarop dat eenvormigheid lojaliteit en trots kweek, netjies lyk en dus netheid by die kinders bevorder en dat dit grootliks bydra om leerlinge, die onderwysers en selfs die ouers in ‘n hegte eenheid saam te snoer. Die mense wat daartéén is, gee meesal toe dat die voordele soos hierbo genoem gewig dra, maar hulle voer aan daar is dinge wat die koste van skooldrag oor die grens van redelikheid stoot. Hulle het dit veral teen “uitspattighede” — soos dat die skoolwapen teen relatief groot koste op omtrent al wat ‘n skoolkledingstuk is moet pryk. Hierby word aangevoer dat doelgemaakte
skooldrag gewoonlik deur een winkel verkoop word, wat dus ‘n monopolie het. Doelgemaakte skooldrag is kledingstukke wat vanweë ‘n bepaalde kleur, snit en unieke bykomstighede (skoolwapen, hoed, pet, strooihoed [cheese cutter], das, serp, ensovoorts) nie by “gewone” klereof kettingwinkels soos Pep, Ackermans, Woolworths en ander gekoop kan word nie. Die Bulletin het twee mense genooi om hul standpunte hieroor te stel. Eerste aan die beurt is mnr John Eastes, die hoof van die Letaba Skool vir Gestremdes in Nkowankowa. Hy is ‘n gesoute onderwysman tot in die murg van sy pype en hy word hoog aangeskryf in onderwyskringe, veral wanneer dit by spesiale onderwys kom. Hiernaas gee Eastes sy standpunt oor dié saak, wat vir baie mense baie delikaat is.
Ek deel graag my mening oor hierdie baie omstrede onderwerp, op versoek van die Bulletin se redakteur. My mening is uit en uit geskoei op my ervaring by die skool waaraan ek verbonde is. Die belangrikheid van ‘n eenvormige skooldrag is ‘n goed nagevorsde en algemeen aanvaarde beginsel wat ek ook glad nie van plan is om te bevraagteken nie. Dit is ‘n voldonge feit dat dit samehorigheid, dissipline en ‘n gevoel van geborgenheid by leerlinge bevorder. Die debat oor skooldrag gaan volgens my dus nie oor die noodsaaklikheid daarvan al dan nie, maar wel oor die bekostigbaarheid daarvan. In ons skool het ons die pad gestap van duur skooldrag wat deur ‘n enkele leweransier verskaf was, wat toe afgeskaal is na self ontwerpte gholfhempies en broeke met skoolwapen en al, tot waar ons vandag is met relatiewe goedkoop skooldrag wat ouers by enige “Jet Stores” kan koop. Weliswaar is ons skooldrag nie meer uniek aan ons skool nie en lyk ons leerlinge net soos duisende ander reg oor die land, en is die gehalte ook nie noodwendig van die beste nie, maar dit is redelik bekostigbaar. Personeel en beheerrade staan jaarliks gekonfronteer met die uitdaging van baie duur skooldrag en in die
huidige ekonomiese klimaat moet die ouers se uitgawes en finansiële vermoëns of onvermoëns volgens my voorkeur geniet. Ek glo daar is ander innoverende opsies, as daadwerklik met erns daarna gesoek word. Ek het juis onlangs per toeval voor Wierdapark Laerskool in Pretoria gestaan, toe die skool uitkom. Al die kinders (seuns en meisies) het denim langbroeke of denim kniebroeke gedra, met ‘n wit hemp daarby. Ek was beïndruk dat dié skool geslaag het om ‘n eenvormige skooldrag te hê. Die skooldrag is baie duursaam, prakties en meerdoelig, aangesien die leerlinge hul denims ook tuis oor naweke en skoolvakansies kan dra. Ek glo hierdie is net een voorbeeld van ‘n skool wat innoverend dink en optree. Dit is maar net my beskeie mening en ervaring wat ek met u deel, maar ek is oortuig dat die probleem van duur skooldrag nog vir lank met ons gaan wees. Ek moet dit ten slotte duidelik stel dat ek geensins ‘n voorstander is van die wegdoen van eenvormige skooldrag nie. Ek persoonlik kan getuig hoe leerlinge se gedrag en die algemene dissipline verander, as hulle toegelaat word om met gewone klere van hul eie keuse skool toe te kom.

SLC pupils attend international conference
SCHOOL NEWS | SKOLE NUUS This photo of the Stanford Lake College group wat taken at Shibok, an ancient castle in Jordan. Seen here are Atiyah Kalla, Ms Shirley Jack, Mr Denis Jack, Naledi Kgosana, Ammaarah Tayob and Reneilwe Komape.
Five Gr 11 pupils and Mr Denis and Ms Shirley Jack from Stanford Lake College attended the International Round Square Conference in Jordan. The Gr 11’s who attended are Atiyah Kalla, Reneilwe Komape, Stuart Lunt, Ammaarah Tayob and Naledi Kgosana. Al Salamu Alaikum — Peace Be Upon You. This is a common greeting in the Middle-East and the theme for the unforgettable and, unfortunately, ephemeral Round Square International Conference, set in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan — a part of the world laden with conflict. The seemingly bewildering theme for the conference served to raise the anticipation of SLC’s delegation; as if countless hours dreaming of the endless shopping to be
done and getting lost in the city of Dubai during the preconference tour hadn’t already done so! The hospitable King’s Academy not only met our anticipations, but surpassed any and every expectation in the most spectacular of ways, as the hosts of the conference. The amazing and thought-provoking speakers offered new and different perspectives of Middle-Eastern conflict, eye-opening and enjoyable service projects, as well as the amazing opportunity to learn from and make tons of new friends from around the world. These were only a few of the aspects of the conference which we experienced whilst enjoying the most fun times! It was all made absolutely memorable.
Duiwelskloof Primary School named their most considerate pupils in each class during 2014 at the end of last year. Seen here are, at the back: Reinette Jacobs (best in the school), Kyle Shulman, Shibu Ramango, Janco Coetzee, Lati Makoro, Mechane Toy and Mothibedi Motau. In the middle row are Tabassum Bhuiyan, Kholofelo Moloto, Nickie Venter, Tetelo Moketla, Léna Basson and Motsiri Sekgota, and in the front are Pierre Geyser and Keratliwe Mohale.
Stanford Lake College is proud of Conrad Schmidt (Grade 11 in 2014). He finished in the top 1% of pupils nationally in last year’s IeBT tests in both mathematics and science.
Die Lego Blokkies spel sukses
Vyfster status vir 2015 se skiewies Na slegs drie dae waartydens hulle kon inoefen het Plasieland se skiewies hul talente op die planke tydens die jaarlikse groentjiekonsert, met die tema “The yellow brick road”, ten toon gestel. Die tonele het soos volg afgespeel: Phineas en Faan is op soek na avontuur en onderneem die reis van hul lewens. Hul word aangemoedig deur die spookstem van Frikkie Deysel om die yellow brick road te volg. Die bose Cheshire Cat probeer egter die reis saboteer. Op pad ontmoet hulle ses karaktervolle

lego-blokkies, wat deel vorm van allerlei opwindende gebeure. Aan die einde van die reis wag ‘n heerlike verrassing. Daar was letterlik nie plek vir ‘n muis in die stampvol skoolsaal nie en alle vorige bywoningsrekords is oortref (meer as agt honderd gaste). Aan die einde van die konsert het elke skiewie ‘n sertifikaat van die skoolhoof, mnr Magnus Steyn, ontvang. Hulle het ook die tradisie voortgesit deur die beesklok te lui, wat eers weer in 2019 sal gebeur wanneer

Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se gr 8-leerlinge het ywerig aan die skool se onlangse jaarlikse boomplantdag deelgeneem. Tydens die geleentheid plant elke gr 8-klas ‘n boom om hul groei in die skool van gr 8 tot gr 12 te simboliseer. Die bome wat vanjaar geplant is, is die baie bekende Spindle Palm (Hyophorbe verschaffeltii). Dié boom is ‘n asembenemende palm wat uitstekend groei en staan onder meer bekend as ‘n natuurlike detoksifiseerder, wat bydra om koolstofmonoksied uit die lug te verwyder en met suurstof te vervang.

The radio station runs a campaign every year in January, to help underprivileged pupils get uniforms and essential study material. According to the radio station’s mar-
keting manager, Ms Vongi Nkanyani, most of the classrooms at the school had no doors or windows before the station embarked on a campaign to find donors to help them fix the classrooms. It fixed the school with help from the correctional services, which provided free labour.
Pupils at Nhluvuko High School make for a nice picture of uniformity in their spanking new uniforms, donated by a radio station.

Substance abuse explained
not the case anymore as children now move straight to their drug of choice. Substance abuse continues to escalate, but is surfacing more often as abusers become aware that help is available. The Substance Abuse Prevention Centre enjoys the services of dr Gary Middleton, (with dr André Botes in an advisory capacity), therapist Ms Doreen Lemmer, the director of mental health in Limpopo Mr Carel Mouton, occult therapist Ms Debbie Kayser and Ms Anza van Vuuren, previously the department of education’s representative at SAPC. The centre is not an institution where patients are absorbed into a system. It works on an out-patient basis and, through referrals, the person is directed to the specialist most suited to his needs. Everything is highly confidential and all other health care professionals endorse this centre. Geldenhuys is available on 015 307 3790. — Sue Ettmayr
During coming weeks the Bulletin will feature in-depth articles on substance abuse. Leading the discussion is well known Tzaneen pharmacist Mr Pieter Geldenhuys, widely known as Piet Pille — a name that stuck after a quirky moment on the Letaba rugby field years ago. Piet Pille was appointed Limpopo representative of the now defunct Drugwise council in 1991. Since then he’s continued to be involved with substance abuse and, together with a knowledgeable inter-disciplinary team of specialists — called the Substance Abuse Prevention Centre (SAPC) — he continues to be the first port of call for substance abusers and their families throughout the Limpopo province.

The loving parent-child relationship needs to be augmented with the PACT concept — Parent And Child Talk. It becomes ultra important to the welfare of the child to spend time with his parents around the dining or kitchen table, talking and interacting. Quality time around the table creates the opportunity for parents to really get to know their child, and vice versa.

Maar ai, is ons Suid-Afrikaners dan nou besig om ook ons sin vir humor te verloor? Die foto is gebruik soos baie voor die gewraakte een en baie wat nog sal volg, om ‘n ligter oomblik te bied. Die woordspelings in die byskrif dui tog daarop — en dit is in elk geval mos nie alledaags om ‘n straatveër (hoop dit is die regte woord) met ‘n yslike verlepte palmtak ‘n straat te sien vee nie. Oor die onbedagsame storting van vullis op leë persele en in die bosse/ plantasies rondom Tzaneen het die Bulletin al byna tot vervelens toe berig en met foto’s toegelig. Eweneens het die Bulletin ook al verskeie berigte gedra oor die goeie orde by die stortingsterrein en die goeie werk wat gedoen word om dit netjies te hou. Hoe selektief lees u dan?
Wat betref die woord asgate is dit ook met die tong in die kies gebruik — so ‘n ondeunde woordspeling in “Die Mense hoor”, wat nog altyd ‘n mengsel van ondeunde gekskeer en terg met woordspeling was.

Show your support A “Coffee for Marcelle Day” will be held at Twig’s, 4 Boundary Street, Tzaneen on Saturday 7th February at 10a.m. Twig’s owner, Ms Dale Kenney, says it’s a morning to show that the province cares about its people. T-shirts and mugs inscribed with the words “Coffee for Marcelle Day” will be sold and the public is asked to bring banners, presents and messages of sup-
port for Marcelle. Marcelle van Vuuren (23), a well known and loved hair stylist in Tzaneen, had a head-on-collision near Soekmekaar in December. Passenger, Ms Carla Swart, died. Marcelle was transported to a Pretoria hospital, where she’s still under the watchful care of plastic surgeon. She had both legs amputated above the knee with severe back and internal injuries. She’s had several operations and has had painful debriding sessions on her stumps and other areas.
Hier kom ‘n ding Daar lê baie meer probleme as net die vasgevalde kruiptrekker in die spruitjie en vleigebied langs Bert Booyensstraat in Tzaneen. Limpopo se departement van ekonomiese ontwikkeling, omgewingsake en toerisme (LEDET) en die Groen Skerpioene soek antwoorde op kwelvrae oor sekere ontwikkelings wat rondom die spruit aangepak is. Alle bedrywighede is reeds twee maande gelede gestaak, terwyl omgewingsbewustes begin toesak het op die behoud van die spruit en sy ekologiese inhoud. Betroubaar word verneem dat die Groen Skerpioene probeer vasstel of daar steeds aan die bepalings van die oorspronklike omgewingsimpakstudie (EIA) voldoen word, terwyl ondersoek ook gedoen word oor die geldigheid van reg van ontwikkeling (ROD) en die toepassing van die Wa-
‘Maake must go!’ Fire Tim Maake, or suspend him. We couldn’t care less. We just want our money. So said the secretary of Samwu (the SA Municipal Workers Union) in Mopani, Pastor Mafumo, yesterday. He was leading a big group of MDM workers to the offices of the MDM in Tzaneen. Later in the day they handed a memorandum to the MDM’s mayor, the chief whip and the speaker. According to a report from the MDM the January salaries could not be paid due to unforeseen reasons. These reasons allegedly include an accusation that money owed to the MDM by die Limpopo Government has not been paid. However, our information is that the government has refused to assist with any payments to the MDM, until the situation with municipal manager Tim Maake has been resolved. The MDM started a process to suspend Maake a number of weeks ago, but until yesterday afternoon nothing further has
tergebruikswet. In dele van die spruit is bane aangebring en bome ontwortel, terwyl dit ook begrens word deur ‘n baie groot hoop grond wat glo tydelik daar opgeberg word. Werk aan ‘n groot uitgrawing vir die bou van ‘n nuwe kompleks vir ‘n motorgroep is ook gestaak, omdat dit volgens mnr Thabang Nong van die Skerpioene ‘n onwettige ontwikkeling is. ‘n Omgewingskundige van Tzaneen, mnr Frederick Pohl, sê volgens wet mag geen bouwerk nader as vyftig meter van ‘n spruit se vloeilyn opgerig word nie, terwyl etlike ander bepalings vir ontwikkeling langs ‘n spruit nagekom moet word.
happened. The MDM followed the wrong procedures when they suspended him two weeks ago. Allegations of mismanagement and corruption in the MDM have been doing the rounds for about the last two to three years. A senior member of the ANC in Mopani, who understandably does not want to be identified, said to us “Maake knows too much” and “if he sinks, a number of high profile people will also sink.” According to this seemingly well informed person Maake will accept a golden handshake (of a substantial amount), but he will also demand exemption from prosecution. Maake was indeed arrested in Lenyenye last year and his case has allegedly been referred to the High Court in Pretoria. Details of the case and the charges against him seem to be kept top secret and efforts by the Bulletin to obtain more information have so far been unsuccessful. — Francois Aucamp francois@bulletin.us.com
Pohl is besig met sy M-graad in omgewingskunde. Die spruit is deel van ‘n groter vleilandgebied wat reeds deur groter ontwikkelings binnegedring en grootliks verwoes is. Die Bulletin is besig met ‘n omvattende ondersoek na die aangeleenthede en ons sal ons lesers, waarvan baie erg beswaard is oor die stelselmatige vernietiging van die vleiland en die spruit, deurlopend ingelig hou (en soos ons vorder). — Louis Roux louis@bulletin.us.com

Merensky klop Kempies
Oppie Kassie On the Telly
Sulke prysgeld laat TV-kykers lippe aflek In net drie van die vernaamste sportbyeenkomste wat dié naweek regstreeks op TV gebeeldsend word, ding die deelnemers om sowat R460 miljoen mee. Ná die Australiese ope tenniskampioenskappe in Melbourne kry die enkelspelkampioene elk ʼn tjek wat in Suid-Afrika byna R28 miljoen werd sal wees. Die ander deel wat van die totale prysgeld van byna R360 miljoen oorbly. In Amerika kry die wenner van die tagtigste Phoenix Ope-gholftoernooi omtrent R13 miljoen van die 6,3 miljoen dollar (R72 miljoen) wat dié naweek op die spel is. En in Doebai neem byna ʼn dosyn Suid-Afrikaners deel aan ʼn toernooi waarvan die prysgeld omtrent R28 miljoen beloop. Die geld is darem nie die enigste rede dat TV-kykers hul lippe aflek nie. Nóg opwinding en skouspelagtige vertonings in eendaagse krieket en die Bulls se losmakerwedstryd teen die Engelse rugbyklub Saracens is ook op die kyklys, saam met die groot perdewedren, die J&B Met, in Kaapstad. Daarby sal ʼn Suid-Afrikaner of wat dalk ook in die uitspeelwedstryde in Japan se voorste rugbyliga te sien wees, en stuur die Afrika-sokker op ʼn tandeknersery af.
Vossies se o.15’s begin Finsbury op hoë noot Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se o.15-krieketspan se kolwers het die naweek behoorlik gebaljaar in ‘n lopiefees teen Benoni High. Die Vossies het die loot gewen en besluit om eerste te kolf. Hulle het ‘n reusetelling van 275 lopies aangeteken, met WC Kriel (52), Vernon Harms (49) en Gideon Vorster (34 lopies) wat mooi tot die telling bygedra het. Na middagete het die boulers van Ben Vorster met mening onder Benoni se kolwers ingeklim en hulle vir slegs 66 lopies uitgeknikker! Fumani Maluleke het drie paaltjies geneem en Vernon Harms en Gideon Vorster twee elk. Die Vossies het dus die wedstryd met 209 lopies gewen. Die eerste span was egter nie so gelukkig nie en moes die knie buig voor Benoni se eerstes. More speel BV tuis teen Alberton se Hoërskool Marais Viljoen.

Die Hoërskool Merensky het by die Hoërskool Rob Ferreira in Mbombela aan ‘n vriendskaplike interskole atletiekbyeenkoms teen agt skole — Lydenburg, Rob Ferreira, Komatipoort, Uplands, Bergvlam, Sybrand van Niekerk, Penryn en Curro Nelspruit — kragte gemeet en die byeenkoms gewen. Die Plasies se atlete het 575 punte ingesamel. Lydenburg was tweede en Rob Ferreira derde. Nie minder nie as 46 goue medaljes, 25 silwer en 23 brons is deur die Plasies se presteerders huis toe gebring. Die Merensky-atlete het ook verskeie byeenkomsrekords laat spat. Die belowende nuweling, Christelle Coetzer
lopies — het ‘n groot verskil gemaak om die Plasies op die wenpad te kry. Uitstaande kolfwerk deur Niyko Shikwambana met 60 lopies en Asad Patel met 48 het ook baie gehelp om die Plasies se basse te red. Die o.15 A-span het Kempton op hul tuisveld ontmoet. Hierdie bloedjong span toon belofte, maar moes vireers die onderspit delf. Albei spanne speel more teen PHS.
(o.14), het nuwe rekords opgestel in die 200 m en die 400 m (kyk op bl 16). Abdul Hussein (o.17) het in die hoogspring ‘n nuwe rekord opgestel (1,85 m), Tertius Kruger (o.19) het in die spiesgooi vir ‘n nuwe rekord gesorg (60,28, vorige rekord 53,50 m) en Phillemon Mabidilala (o.19) spog met ‘n nuwe rekord agter sy naam in die 110 m-hekkies (15:00 sek; vorige rekord 15,09 sek). Atletiekkoors loop hoog vir die komende interhoër byeenkoms in Polokwane, sowel as uitnodigingsbyeenkomste by Ben Viljoen in Groblersdal en die Hoërskool Piet Potgieter in Mokopane.
Stanford Lake enjoyed a successful Interhouse The Interhouse Athletics day at Stanford Lake College started very misty and a little damp, but by mid-morning, the sun came out and the weather conditions for this event were perfect. At the end of the day dr Marika Voigt handed over the trophies to the following top achievers: Junior Victor Ludorum: Ruben Caroto; Junior Victrix Ludorum: Reese Bain; Senior Victor Ludorum: Mfumo Mongwe; Senior Victrix Ludorum: Anke Vaughan.
On the web Op die webwerf Die skooljaar is fluks aan die gang en veral sportaktiwiteite hou die kinders en onderwysers (en oor naweke ook die ouers) lekker besig. Die gevolg hiervan is dat ons ‘n ooraanbod van skolenuus het. Ten einde die probleem te oorbrug en soveel nuus en foto’s as moontlik van ons skoolkinders in die nuusdomein te laat verskyn, sal ons nuus en foto’s wat nie die koerant se bladsye haal nie, op ons webwerf plaas. Gaan besoek dus gerus gereeld ons webwerf by www.bulletin.us.com (in die seksie wat gemerk is Skole).
Die Hoërskool Merensky se eerste krieketspan het die Finsbury-seisoen goed afgeskop. Agter staan Tivani Mushwana, Salmaan Ishani, Rassie Pretorius (kapt), Asad Patel (o.kapt), Dylan Oosthuize en mnr Wessel van Rooyen (afrigter) en voor is Richard Coleman, Ruurd Jacobs, Nyiko Shikwambana, Viraj Devdhara, Timothy Elphinstone en AJ Fourie.

Merensky se eerstespan-krieketspelers se superliga Finsbury-seisoen het die afgelope naweek afgeskop, toe hulle Kemptonpark toe is om daar teen die Hoërskool Kemptonpark kragte te meet. Kemptonpark het die loot gewen en besluit om eerste te kolf. Die Kempies is vir 222 lopies uitgehaal en toe volg daar ‘n naelbytstryd van die eerste water. Merensky se kêrels het vir die vale wal gegooi en uiteindelik 223 lopies behaal, maar eers in die laaste boulbeurt en met slegs een paaltjie staande. Goeie veldwerk met besondere vangskote het baie tot die Plasies se oorwinning bygedra. Uitstekende boulwerk deur Ruurd Jacobs — 4 paaltjies in 10 boulbeurte vir slegs 29

Lietsjietoernooi lok honderde Die rolbalspelers van Modjadjiskloof is vanjaar se kampioene in die gewilde jaarlikse Lietsjietoernooi, wat die afgelope naweek in Tzaneen gehou is. Die twee bane was weer volgepak, ondanks versengende hitte wat die deelnemers kortkort na skadukolle laat soek het. Dit was die dertiende lietsjietoernooi vir Tzaneen en volgens die voorsitter van die Tzaneen Rolbalklub, mnr Peet Jordaan, groei
Nuwe ster vonkel Christelle Coetzer. Dié naam duik nou in haas elke gesprek in Limpopo oor skoleatletiek en belowende jong atlete op — en na die naweek se atletiek by Rob Ferreira in Mbombela is haar naam ook in Mpumalanga nie meer onbekend nie. Dié o.14-atleet van die Hoërskool Merensky het Saterdag by Rob Ferreira nuwe rekords in die 200 meter (27:90) én die 400 meter (1:02:57) opgestel. Sy sal voortaan fyn dopgehou word en as sy kan volhou en verder verbeter met sulke tye, gaan sy by die interhoër (in Polokwane) en die twee uitnodigingsbyeenkomste (in Groblersdal en Mokopane) haar stempel deeglik afdruk.
die gewildheid van die toernooi steeds. ‘n Maksimum van 28 spanne is ingeskryf, terwyl nog ses spanne op die waglys tevrede moes wees. Die deelnemers was van oor byna
Vanjaar se wenners van die Lietsjietoernooi was Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub se Doug Reed, Francois Hanekom, Sue Morrison en Alister Morrison. Regs is Rolene Engelbrecht, waarnemende sekretaris van Tzaneen Rolbalklub.
die hele Limpopo, asook Gauteng, Mpumalanga en Noordwes. Byna die helfte was van ander provinsies. Jordaan sê net een span van Tzaneen is toegelaat, om voorsiening te maak vir die besoekers. Minstens tien borge het die toernooi moontlik gemaak. Die Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub het die eerste twee plekke ingeneem en ook ‘n tweede plek vir hul kleredrag losgeslaan.
Een van Duiwelskloof se spanne was die naasbeste geklee en die span het ook die tweede plek in die toernooi behaal. Hulle is Johan Benade, Zane Fanie, Amelia Benade en Damian Stefaans.
SLC just too good Last Friday Stanford Lake College played cricket against Northern Academy (NA) in Polokwane and enjoyed a good win that didn’t come easy though. Stanford won the toss and elected to bat first. They got off to a good start, with Conrad Schmidt making 27 and Matthew Maritz 45. Declan Taggart also scored a valuable 46 in the middle of the innings. They ended with a reasonable score of 168 off twenty overs. NA pushed Stanford right to the end and scored 141 in reply. They were in touch with the run rate all the way to the last few overs. Jason Wright bowled a match winning spell, taking two wickets in his four overs and only conceding a meagre twelve runs.
Stanford’s 1st team members who played against Northern Academy were, in front: Hlanhla Mohlaba, Matthew Maritz and Graeme Harty and behind them Declan Taggart, Justin Trueman, Estian Botha, Christian Schmidt, Bryce Reed, Conrad Schmidt, Bradley Penrose, Jason Wright and Mr Shane Friedrichs (coach).
Teen ons beterwete vat Oubal en Kie verlede Saterdag die pad Pieter Mokaba Stadion toe, om die BB’e teen die Cheetahs te gaan kyk. Sonder hoë verwagtings, want Oubal ken voorseisoense losmakers — maar ons was desperaat om ‘n slag ‘n bietjie rakbie te sien. ‘Tja, wat ons gesien het was inderdaad ‘n “bietjie”, gemeet aan dit wat opgedis is. Die Cheetahs is mos nou eenmaal maar soos ‘n skool se eerste span wat elke jaar van voor af opgebou moet word. Oubal het ook nie verwag dat die BB’e hoofsaaklik tweedeliniespelers sou gebruik nie. Boonop het onse Trevor hom op die nippertjie onttrek, glo weens ‘n nekbesering en nie omdat hy die bus verpas het nie. Piet van Zyl was een van die min ligpunte en ons weet nou ook dat Travis Ismael heelwat vinniger is as oupa Aikona Ndungane. Dit was ook goed om Arno Botha weer ‘n volle wedstryd te sien speel en dat Danie Mienie, voorheen van die Blouskool, vir die Cheetahs
en Duiwelskloof brul almal stil!
Bloubefoeterd! Fienk Pienk! uitgedraf het. Maar Oubal weet na dese nog nie of die 2015-model BB’e anders gaan wees as die 2014-weergawe nie. Die tyd sal leer. Die gehalte van spel is egter ‘n faktor van die gehalte van afrigting, wat Oubal bring by ‘n brief wat hy verlede week van ‘n ou Yskorpêl ontvang het. Onder die skuilnaam “Bloubefoeterd”, want hy vrees dat hy verplig sal word om sy seisoenkaartjie te gebruik as sy identiteit bekend word in Loftusland. ‘Tja, neef Blou beweer hy het verlede jaar ‘n Wêreldrugby- (voorheen die IRB) intreevlakafrigterskursus per korrespondensie voltooi
en hy gee wenke vir die BB’e, met die versoek dat Oubal dit aan Frans Ludeke oordra. Weens die stotterende Poskantoor het neef Blou se brief Oubal ongelukkig lank na die bestemde tyd bereik, maar dis dalk nog nie te laat nie. Neef Blou se wenke vir Ludeke: 1. Pak duiksakke in ‘n ry en laat die spelers tussen hulle deurhardloop, sonder om aan ‘n enkele sak te raak. 2. Staan een meter van mekaar in ‘n ry en gee die bal luglangs aan, sonder om dit te laat val. 3. Plaas ‘n duiksak op die middelkolletjie en laat elke speler dit van links, regs en agter duik. As ‘n speler die duikslag mis weens ‘n onverwagse vaartversnelling van die sak, moet hy twee keer om die veld hardloop. 4. Lê ‘n duiksak op die middellyn neer en plaas ‘n rakbiebal aan die agterkant. Elke speler moet na die sak hardloop, sy hande daaroor steek en die bal by dit afneem, sonder om oor die sak te val. ‘n Suksesvolle speler kan gaan pizza eet, maar die mislukkings moet drie keer
om die veld hardloop. 5. Laat die voorspelers die skrummasjien pak, sonder ekstra gewig daarop. Stoot hulle dit twee meter terug sonder dat die stutte val, mag elkeen twee hotdogs eet. Sou hulle val, of die skrummasjien stoot hulle vyf meter terug, moet elkeen twee keer om die veld hardloop. 6. As al bogenoemde doelwitte bereik is, moet die spelers dieselfde program teen mekaar volg. Begin met een opponent en vermeerder hulle geleidelik — eers vyftien teen een, dan vyftien teen twee, ensovoorts. Dis sleg vir spelers se selfvertroue as hulle in die voorseisoen verloor, daarom moet hulle nie teen meer as tien opponente oefen nie — vul eerder die opponente aan met duiksakke. ‘Tja, Oubal verstaan nou neef Blou se seisoenkaartjievrees, maar hy vermoed sy bedenklike afrigterskursus het ook gely onder die posstaking! “It’s fine to celebrate succes, but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.” — Bill Gates
