Concert for care centre AVRIL FILLIES

T

he De Heide Special Care Centre in Lansdowne will benefit from the charity concert by Mark Master Masons in collaboration with Widows Sons Western Cape at the Barnyard Theatre in the Tygervalley Centre on Sunday 3 November.

The concert is at 14:00 and costs R150 per person.

The De Heide Special Care Centre is one

of the services of the Western Cape Cerebral Palsy Association (WCCPA). The association is committed to providing a range of services to all people with cerebral palsy.

De Heide caters for children with cerebral palsy who have severe and profound intellectual disabilities and experience severe barriers to learning.

“Currently 28 children attend De Heide Special Care Centre and are transported daily from disadvantaged communities of Cape

Town in specialised WCCPA busses. The children come for Bridgetown, Silver-town, Kewtown, Manenberg, Heideveld and Hanover Park,” said Fatima Shaboodien of the centre.

De Heide provides a daily learning programme to children and adults disabled by cerebral palsy and additional disabilities. It emphasises self-help skills, cognitive development, fine and gross motor development, emotional skills and interactive play.

“Integrated into this holistic approach is the sharing and exchanging of ideas with parents to empower them to understand and manage their children’s disabilities more effectively. Children with such a high support need are dependant on the parent or caregiver for the rest of their life. While a basic developmental programme is adopted, the care component is high and has huge financial implications,” she says.

F

ounded in 2015, the JP21 Foundation has set out to inspire hundreds of school children through sport.

Based on a sincere commitment to reigniting the passion and enthusiasm for the game of cricket in underprivileged communities and schools in Mitchell’s Plain and Strandfontein, its long-term objectives are to promote a positive and healthy lifestyle and to allow learners to have fun at the same time, all while playing cricket.

The initiative is the brainchild of one of South Africa’s most well-known cricketers, JP Duminy, who hails from the area. Duminy started his cricket career playing in the streets of Mitchell’s Plain and Strandfontein from the age of five.

Duminy started the JP21 Foundation, focusing on youth development through cricket clinics and a specially developed league. “(I was inspired to start the foundation) through values instilled in me, to always give back, to make sure we remain humble in our successes and achievements. For a long time I would give back in my time and resources to other worthy causes; (this) led me to believe that it was time to start my foundation and give a meaningful contribution, by making this foundation a passion,” says Duminy.

Since its inception, the foundation has celebrated much success, including being active at 38 local schools, having four boys representing Western Province, several teachers completing their level 1 coaching course, 2 000 girls and boys participating, the installation of several cricket pitches, the distribution of trainers and bursaries.

Duminy says there is more to his success than just his passion. “My success is certain-

FROM PAGE 1 De Heide has different projects and if the public wants to become involved, they can contact the centre. They have a sponsor-thechild-project, where the cost per child is R3 170 per month. After deducting guaranteed income from the government and donors as well as anticipated family contributions and fundraising, a monthly shortfall of R500 exists for each child.

“If you are prepared to assist by contributing R250 or less per month for one year you will be ensuring that one child is assured of the care and developmental support needed to maintain his or her place at De Heide.

“Transport plays a pivotal role at De Heide as the nature of the children’s and adults’ disabilities, coupled with the economic status of the families, make them totally dependent on transport provided by the organisation,” she says.

To ensure that the transport service is always safe and reliable, a tracker system needs to be installed, the vehicle has to be maintained and serviced regularly, the vehicle has to be insured and a driver employed, which all have huge financial implications on already overstretched budgets.

HAVE YOU BEEN INJURED? If you have been seriously injured in amotor vehicle accident, train accident, police shooting or due to medical negligence, you may have a claim against a government department for compensation.

If you have put in a claim directly with the Road Accident Fund without using an attorney and feel that you have been underpaid or are dissatisfied with their service, we may be able to assist you.

We are personal injury attorneys, who specialise in serious injuries.

We are prepared to work on a no win – no fee basis.

“You could offer your support through contribution towards petrol, maintenance, pay the annual license and insure the bus.

We offer therapeutic sessions and you could contribute towards financing the weekly sessions and therapeutic equipment.

“We also need funding for the upgrading of computer systems and software, donations of stationery and donations of food, kitchenware, cleaning materials, outdoor tools and classroom equipment,” Shaboodien says.

She also mentioned that the presence of a severely intellectual and physically disabled child in the home often places incredible strain on parents, grandparents and siblings.

“By providing a daily service, the centre not only enables the child to reach his or her fullest potential but also provides relief to families in a safe, secure environment.

“Attending the centre is not only important for the self-esteem and dignity of the child but also ensures that they can take their rightful place within their own families and their communities at large,” she says.

FIRE

Residents in need of help after fire A

n interfaith meeting was held by the Athlone interfaith community to address the issue of the Vygieskraal informal settlement blaze which claimed two lives on Monday 21 October.

President of the Service and Allied Workers’ Union of South Africa (Sawusa), Wilfred Alcock, released a statement earlier in the week on behalf of the interfaith community, in which he describes the incident as “devastating”.

“The meeting was held with the Athlone Ministers Forum and community members, neighbourhood watch and the community policing forum,” Alcock said following conducting a site inspection, and interactions with the depressed community. “The people said that about 200 shacks were raised in the blaze that left over 400 adults, 80 children and two newborn babies homeless from across a cultural assembly of locals: people from the Eastern Cape, and our African counterparts mainly, Congolese and Malawian.

“They do not want emergency accommodation as they are securing the individual sites,” Alcock said. “After the City Council has cleared the area they want to rebuild their shacks.”

The interfaith meeting was held at the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Belgravia this week, where the policing forum issued a resolution to devel-

op a breakdown-assessment profile including special needs and dietary requirements on how many adults and children are affected. A task team has been established to address the urgent needs, such as providing trauma counselling to victims.

“They are in urgent need of clothing, blankets and mattresses,” said Alcock.

“The Lutheran Church in 8th Ave, Belgravia, has set up a joint operation centre and is the drop-off point for donations.”

Furthermore, a follow-up open air interfaith prayer service solidarity procession was held at the Full Gospel Church on 7th Ave, Belgravia, to the site of the “vlei” Vygieskraal informal settlement on Wednesday 23 October in the evening from 18:00.

According to police spokesperson FC van Wyk, fire broke at about 16:00 on Monday to massive effect, and the circumstances surrounding the fire’s cause is under investigation by Athlone police. Van Wyk confirms that there were casualties.

“After the fire was extinguished the body of a four-year-old girl and another unidentified body was discovered,” says Van Wyk. “Anyone with any information about this incident is kindly requested to contact Athlone police.”

According to Van Wyk, police intelligence reveals that approximately 50 to 60 shacks were destroyed in the blaze.

Many people were displaced, and two lives lost as a fire wove its way through the Vygieskraal informal settlement on Monday 21 October

MUSLIM HANDS HELP FIRE VICTIMS: Muslim Hands were on the site of the aftermath of the fire in the Vygieskraal informal settlement on Wednesday 23 October where 240 shacks were gutted by fire last week. Two people were killed and 600 left homeless in Athlone. The team of Muslim Hands handed out food, clothing and blanket distributions to all the victims. They also visited the Lutheran Church that housed over 40 children and mothers. Henry Peterson, chairperson of the Western Cape Lutheran Church Association expressed his appreciation and gratitude to Muslim Hands for their generous contributions and swift response to the emergency. Muslim Hands in collaboration with the Cape Flats Development Association (Cafda), are hosting a graduation ceremony on Friday 1 November at the Cafda Centre in Schaapkraal, after starting the skills programme in September.

Here Sheikh Haashim Peck, Muslim Hands programmes manager, is addressing the students at the start of the skills programme. His programmes manager, Arshad Ebrahim, assisted with the handover of food donations to the victims.

Capetonians support Boks in Japan AVRIL FILLIES

W

hen you are living and working in Dubai and not fortunate enough to watch the Springboks play in South Africa, you try everything in your power to watch them play overseas.

What better way to do this than to attend the Rugby World Cup in a foreign country and show the world, “your blood is green!”

This is exactly what six South Africans, five from Cape Town and one from George, did

when they attended the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan.

The Springbok groupies are Shaun Fabe from Wynberg, Gilroy Fillies from Eersterivier, Gavin Adendorff from Strandfontein, Brent Abrahams from Retreat, Lloyd Idas from Durbanville and Silvino Giewelaar from George.

“This was our second World Cup that we attended after supporting the Springboks at the World Cup in England in 2015.

“We are all living and working in Dubai

and planned this trip after the final in England.

We left on Thursday 3 October and went to watch the Springbok games against Italy and Canada,” says trip organiser Shaun.

“The journey was epic, the atmosphere unreal, and to stand next to each other shoulder to shoulder singing the anthem was emotional!

We even got Rassie Erasmus, Faf de Klerk and Damian Willemse to give us a wave,” he says.

After an eventful night of celebrating the win over Italy, the proud South Africans took a two hour train to Osaka where they had four days

to see sights and prepare for the next game against Canada.

“In Osaka we managed to get some good sushi, local teppanyaki and did the Mario streetcar tour where we dressed up as superheroes. The last game against Canada was also very good, we even managed to swop jerseys with some Japanese and Canadian supporters.

“Japanese hospitality was so good and embracing, we already planning for our third RWC to France in 2023,” Shaun says.

SMARTCAPE CADET INITIATIVE

Digital programme provides opportunities T

he City of Cape Town has upskilled 75 unemployed residents with essential information science and technology skills through its Smartcape Cadet initiative.

Each of the participants has also received an 18-month employment contract from the City. They will be assisting the public in using computers and the internet at various City libraries across Cape Town.

The Smartcape Cadet skills development programme provides training to unemployed youth who wish to explore opportunities in the IT sector.

They have been employed by the City through the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) for an 18 months period and will now be stationed at the Smartcape kiosks at various City libraries. They will be facilitating the Smartcape services offered to the public at the kiosks.

The cadet skills development programme focuses on skills in computer and digital literacy, customer service, administration, and communication.

Qualifying participants for this programme were required to have a matric certificate and be between the ages of 18 and 35.

“Through our digital literacy initiatives, we invest in the lives of unemployed residents by upskilling them with scarce skills to improve their chances of securing future employment. However, with the Smartcape Cadet programme we took it one step fur-

ther and are providing the participants with employment opportunities to equip them with necessary experience. Over the next 18 months these Smartcape Cadets will have the opportunity to share the skills they have gained with the various community members visiting the libraries in order for these patrons to start using the technology to improve their lives,” says Mayco member for corporate services, Sharon Cottle.

The City’s aim with its digital literacy initiatives is to bridge the digital divide in our communities.

Over the past month, the Smartcape Cadets programme participants have received training focusing on basic computer skills, internet searches, online job-hunting skills, online applications for universities, scholarships and bursaries, as well as managing the Smartcape registrations, statistics and marketing.

Given that they are now equipped with the necessary facilitation skills, the Smartcape Cadets will be assisting library patrons with accessing the WiFi, using useful e-resources such as Press Reader and Encyclopaedia Britannica Online, searching for information, and creating online folders for them to access their research.

Through Smartcape, residents are also able to apply for an apprenticeship or a job at the City, register for the EPWP, apply for an informal trading permit, or report a fault or service request.

People with disabilities need your help The Western Cape Association for Persons with Disabilities (WCAPD) has embarked on a two-month-long Nappy Run Campaign that will end on Tuesday 3 December. WCAPD appeals to the public for support. They need

nappies, size five and six for the children; and small, medium and large sizes for the adults.

Police looking for stolen vehicle A

thlone police are looking for a light blue Hyundai that was stolen on Thursday 24 October at the Bangla Bazaar in Mabel Road in Rylands Estate.

“The owner of the shop was inside when a customer came into the shop and purchased items and left the store. Two men then also entered the shop, both had firearms in their hands, pointed it to them and tied them with cable ties.

“Two other men came into the shop with the man that entered prior and purchased items,” Sgt Zita Norman, spokesperson of Athlone police, says.

The two men searched the victim who purchased the items and told him to lay on the floor.

“They then took R2 500 from the register and cartons of cigarettes and loose packets of cigarettes, amounting to R7 500,” Norman says.

They also took the employee’s cellphone, a Samsung S9, and two other cellphones, a Nokia and a J5 Samsung, to the value of R6 500 and R3 000 cash.

“They then took the customer’s vehicle key and took his light blue Hyundai and

drove away. The two other brazen men jumped into a white Toyota Quantum. The registration is unknown. No shot was fired and no injuries sustained,” Norman says. . In another incident four adults – two men aged 68 and 41 and two women aged 28 and 33 – were arrested on Wednesday 23 October at 13:30 in Athlone by the Athlone crime prevention officers and the metro police K9 unit.

They went to an address in Silvertree Street, Kewtown, to conduct a search warrant as the particular home is a well-known drug outlet in the area.

“On the officers’ arrival they searched the house and separate entrance and discovered a plastic bag with 40 smaller packets of tik,” says Norman.

The suspects appeared in the Athlone magistrate’s court on Friday 25 October on charges of possession and dealing in drugs.

“The most common drugs used in Athlone are tik, heroine and dagga.

“The management wants to thank the community for the information provided to assist the closing down of drug outlets in the Athlone area,” Norman says.

The Western Cape department of correctional services (DCS) will hold its first three-day Spiritual Care Expo at the Pollsmoor Correctional Centre in Tokai from 6 to 8 November.

The expo is aimed at embracing and strengthening partnerships with stakeholders that are promoting rehabilitation programmes in different correctional facilities.

The expo’s theme will be “Masibambisane: restoring the dignity of our people

W

ith a hot summer season expected to hit the Cape soon, the City of Cape Town has reopened several municipal pools for the enjoyment of residents.

The drought had forced the City to close several pools, many of which have now been reopened with the prospect of more pools being opened should the scheduled maintenance be completed in time for the summer peak season.

NEWLANDS

Stadium’s future in the balance NETTALIE VILJOEN

S

outhern suburb residents Ellen Fedele and Leigh Bartlett’s Save Newlands Stadium media campaign, launched this month shortly after reports of its possible demolition, has elicited mixed reactions.

Scrolling through its Facebook page, which last week had 209 members, and the change.org petition link, so far signed by 359, the movement does enjoy support, but it also has its detractors.

Fedele, who has received many emails and text messages since her letter (“Are we just going to sit back and watch Newlands Stadium be pulled down?” Cape Argus 14 October) was published, says that although most were positive, there were those who told her it was a money issue.

Reports that the Western Province Rugby Football Union (WPRFU) would relocate to Cape Town Stadium in Green Point has been doing the rounds even before the last brick was laid at the World Cup stadium in 2009.

Not only would the union save on the Newland Stadium’s maintenance costs (said to be in the millions per year), but the development of the prime property would mean a healthy cash injection for WPRFU which, three years ago, was on the brink of bankruptcy.

But Fedele says this kind of decision shouldn’t be based on money alone.

“There is much more at stake here. I grew up in Albion Road around the corner from the stadium. I’ve experienced the atmosphere at the stadium. There is a presence there that you won’t find anywhere else.

From World Cup matches to seasonal matches, Newlands has been a proud tradition and heritage of the city,” she says.

Affectionately called the grand old dame

Affectionately called the grand old dame of local rugby, Newlands Stadium is 123-years-old. of local rugby, Newlands Stadium is 123years-old.

According to capetown.travel’s website, Newlands Stadium is the oldest rugby stadium in South Africa and the second-oldest rugby stadium in the world. WPRFU bought the ground in 1888. The first official rugby match at Newlands took place on 31 May 1890. The first permanent concrete stands were erected in 1919.

Media reports of the stadium’s possible demolition began to surface in the first week of October. The Rugby Rocks website reported WPRFU had entered into an agreement with Investec that would see the asset management group given development rights to

the stadium from 2021. It has been reported (Sport 24, “Newlands demolition likely, but timeline uncertain”, 7 October) that Investec plans to eventually erect residential and retail properties on the site.

People’s Post contacted WPRFU and Investec for comment. Investec responded, saying at present, it could not comment further. No response had been received from WPRFU by the time of going to press.

Whether the demolition will go ahead and if so, when, remains up in the air. Before any development can take place, however, an application for rezoning rights have to be submitted to the City of Cape Town.

Ian Iversen, councillor for ward 59, says

Newlands Stadium is private property and the owners have the right to submit an application to demolish the property.

“If residents want to get involved when a rezoning application is submitted and advertised they will certainly have the right to submit comments which will form part of the agenda item when the matter appears on the Municipal Planning Tribunal agenda,” Iversen says.

According to Heritage Western Cape’s website, heritage site applications require consultation with the registered conservation bodies for that particular geographic area or theme of a conservation body’s interest. The Greater Lynfrae Civic Association (GLCA) is the registered conservation body for the area including the stadium.

Asked whether GLCA would consider supporting such a heritage site application, the association’s vice chair, Kaz Henderson, says it could not make a determination as a committee without first putting the question to its members and community.

“The GLCA would need to put this out to the community to determine what the consensus is, in order to comment and determine whether they would consider or want the stadium as a heritage site,” she says.

Henderson says the committee is not opposed to anything that enhances the community and environment. “That could include declaring the site as a heritage site (provincial or national would need to go through the appropriate channels and motivations, of course). Or the greater good could also include a development. Either way, the GLCA needs to be consulted, and through our planning sub-committee comprising professionals in these areas, we would make a considered opinion in consultation with our community,” she says.

FESTIVE LIGHTS

Art contest challenges youth T

he Festive Lights Switch-On (FLSO) is a highlight on the City of Cape Town’s event diary. This year, it will take place on Sunday 1 December from 16:00 on the Grand Parade with a host of feel-good entertainment for the whole family.

In the run up to the event, there are two challenges, the FLSO 2019 Music Challenge (now in its 4th year) and a brand new initiative in the form of a recycling-based art competition. They are both aimed at reaching out to the youth of Cape Town.

In 2019, the art competition takes on a responsible approach to highlighting the environmental challenges society is facing, with the Festive Lights Switch-On Waste to Art Challenge.

Showcasing how one person’s waste is another’s gold, the FLSO Waste to Art Challenge 2019, is looking for creative youth 16 years and younger – either as an individual or as part of a school or community project – to use waste material (any)

to create visual art pieces.

Submissions can be a picture, an article of clothing, a furniture item or an installation or sculpture. Entries need to incorporate the event theme, ‘Cape Town: Window to The World’.

The challenge for this year’s competition is for the youth to create a visual statement, a strong message that addresses the principles of waste management – reduce, reuse and recycle – which is inspired, and that also incorporates their interpretation of the festive season and what the holidays mean to them.

A gallery has been created on http://flsoartchallenge2019.co.za/, where an image of the finished artwork can be uploaded with a description and shared with all entrants’ social media platforms. The more it is shared, viewed and voted for, the better the chances of winning, as it will be up to the public to decide who walks away with the R5 000 cash prize.

The winner will also be invited to exhibit . go to the URL: http://flsoartchaltheir art piece at the Civic Centre in the lenge2019.co.za/ then choose where to upCBD during the school holidays. Four run- load your media on Facebook, Instagram, ners up will similarly be asked to display Twitter or PC their works, which will need to be trans. if using PC option, your name and ported to the venue.

HELP SAVE THE RHINO: South Africans are urged to support the conservation of Rhinos to ensure that generations to come don’t have to only see them in photos and books. Among other support initiatives, people can purchase a Relate bracelet from participating retailers. A portion of the money goes towards the Endangered Wildlife Trust Rhino Project.

The trust helps fund several essential conservation activities such as the deployment of equipment, skilled field staff, anti-poaching and sniffer dogs, a rapid response platform for rhino orphans, and end-user awareness campaigns, to ensure the survival of this iconic animal.

Whilst some stress can be beneficial in creating motivation and focus, unmanaged or high levels of stress can be counterproductive and potentially affect one’s mental well-being.

“Stress around exam time often stems not only from the work to be learned and the actual taking of the exam, but also from uncertainties about the results and possible consequences thereof,” says Megan Hosking, a social worker and psychiatric intake clinician at Akeso psychiatric hospitals.

Each year there are tragic reports of learners taking their own lives around or after exam time, perhaps triggered by fear of failure or disappointing results. “It is devastating to think of young people feeling so pressured that they cannot see any future for themselves,” she reflects.

“Our message to anyone who feels as though stress, including exam stress, is getting the better of them, is that your well-being is the most important aspect to focus on.

If you find that you are struggling to cope, help is available.”

Hosking gives the following tips for managing exam stress: Start preparing early and make time for relaxation According to Hosking, preparation is key to managing exam stress. “Allowing sufficient time to prepare for the exams by starting to study well in advance can be helpful as it minimises time pressures, which often add to the other stress factors around this time,” Hosking notes.

“There are many approaches to studying for exams, and it may take some time to identify which study method suits you best.

Once you have found an effective study method, stick to it and put in the time required to cover all the necessary material.”

It is equally important to allow adequate time for rest and relaxation in the run-up to exams.

“Making time for enjoyable activities can help you to maintain a healthier perspective. Plan your time to allow for much-needed breaks, as this will help to ensure that the time spent studying is optimised.”

She says that physical activity, whether a walk outside, yoga, time in the gym, or some other form of exercise, can be extremely helpful for relieving stress.

Final exam preparations “Going through past exam papers or practice papers can help identify any gaps in your knowledge and understanding of a subject, and can help manage pre-exam nerves,” she adds.

“In the days leading up to the exam, make sure you know the exam times, venues, procedures and requirements, and plan so that you will arrive well before the start time to avoid unnecessary worry. Check which items you are permitted to take with you into the exam room.”

It can be distressing for parents and caregivers to see their children going through the stress associated with exams.

“Common signs of stress and anxiety include irritability, difficulty sleeping, changes in appetite and complaints about headaches, stomach aches or other physical pains. Children may also report difficulty concentrating or you may notice mood changes in your child.

“Support your child year round in their studies, encouraging them to do regular revision and to stay up to date with their work. Leading up to test or exam time, you can also help by having discussions with your child about how they are feeling, reminding them to take breaks from studying, and providing supportive advice.

“However, if stress persists, or feels unmanageable every time you are faced with tests, exams or deadlines, it is recommended that you consult a professional, such as a psychologist, to assist with developing coping mechanisms, time management skills and building resilience.”

Children need to be healthy To stay competitive in the modern world, today’s youth need to have a good education. It makes me sad that there are still children who have to walk more than 10 kilometres to and from school. Because these kids arrive at school tired and without having had breakfast, they find it difficult to concentrate in class.

After school, they must do household chores, which prevent them from doing their homework.

It is parents’ and government’s responsibility to ensure that every child in the country has transport to and from schools, and food to eat.

As the saying goes: “A healthy mind comes from within a healthy body.”

Why not use drones to fight the country’s crime?

I was watching an international news channel on riots, and while watching this I saw what I thought was seagulls swooping above the rioting crowds, but on closer inspection, I realised it was drones.

While still watching, my memory went back to a wedding my wife and I attended in Table View a few months ago, when the official wedding photographer was taking pictures using a drone with a camera attached. Now being a retired police officer and with violent protests taking place, gunfights in our suburbs and farm attacks, illegal poaching in and around our coastline, road users terrorising other road users, attacks on local and foreign tourists on hiking trails and local security companies protecting properties and reacting to alarms, I am wondering why our police, law enforcement, rangers and traffic officials, and neighbourhood watches are not being issued with the drones.

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) and other legal experts must be approached to investigate the legality of using drones in crime prevention and crime-fighting initiatives.

I got so excited when I was compiling this article as I could only see massive benefits from the use of drones.

This also has some financial benefits.

Officers can use fewer helicopters. I believe even a loudspeaker can also be attached to the drones in crime prevention or crowd control. An eye in the sky sees all.

Road works wreak havoc I am happy that there is work being done to improve our roads, but, it causes a major delay.

Sometimes I wonder why it all takes so long and if it is wise to be undertaking projects at this time of the year. The roads are busier as the sun comes out. Is there not a better time to do this?

I read the article on the mayor’s new pothole project (“Services go back to basics”, People’s Post 22 October) and I agree with Dawood Jacobs that there are way more road issues that need to be addressed. We cannot log calls for every single pothole and watch them fix one

and leave another one.

But what I want to know even more now is if they plan to take nine years to fix potholes as well, or if this is a one day job. Because if it is a day job, or even better an hour job, then why are the potholes in our streets for years?

The council says they spent millions fixing potholes last year, but show me where, because the countless ones I see have become part of our community, that is how long it has been around. No number of reports has changed that yet.

Send parcels overseas now says post office With the festive season fever on the horizon, the South African Post Office is urging people who intend to send overseas parcels to do so immediately.

Spokesperson, Martie Gilchrist says particularly those who use sea and surface mail to send their Christmas gifts are affected. She is calling on them to act soon, to make it in time for Christmas.

Gilchrist says the country has a very little delay with items leaving its shores.

However, such parcels have to go through time-consuming clearance procedures in the country of destination.

For sea and surface mail, no later than the following dates: . The islands of Tristan da Cunha, Ascension and St Helena, Australia, Great Britain, Europe, the Americas (North and South), the Far East and Asia – no later than Thursday 31 October. . Items meant for countries bordering South Africa (Botswana, Lesotho, Mozambique, and Swaziland) no later than Sunday 8 December.

. Only airmail is available to all other countries in Africa and these items must be posted no later than 1 December.

It is too late to send parcels to the Seychelles, Comoros, Mauritius and Reunion (Indian Ocean). The deadline was Sunday 27 October.

Ensure your parcel arrives safely: . Parcels must be packaged securely. . If your mail item does not fill the container, fill it with packaging material like shredded paper or polystyrene to act as a shock absorber. . Make sure the items you are sending are legal in the country of destination.

Plant and animal material usually cannot be imported. . Ask the sender to include your cellphone number with your address.

Gilchrist says all airmail items are x-rayed and scanned to make sure the content is legal and safe. “Parcels containing items that are not allowed are rejected by the airlines that transport the mail and returned to the post office.”

Rally returns to thrill fans n all-out battle to be crowned World Rallycross Champion and fierce competition for a podium place will thrill spectators at Killarney International Raceway on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 November.

The two leaders are just one single point apart.

The season finale, World Rallycross of South Africa, will see supercars accelerating faster than Formula 1’s and international drivers with matching reflexes burning up the Killarney circuit of tar, dirt, straights, tight corners and airborne jumps battling for the world driver and car crown.

The world finale is brought to Cape Town’s Killarney track by IMG, The City of Cape Town and well-known SA event organiser WorldSport.

Under the agreement with the City of Cape Town, the championship will also visit Cape Town in 2020 and 2021.

The top three Supercar drivers are Andreas Bakkerud (Audi S1) and brothers Timmy and Kevin Hansen (Peugeot 208) with a field of 35 drivers in the chase.

The four-wheel drive turbocharged 2 litre WRX supercars produce 450kW and 900Nm of torque, catapulting the cars from zero to 100km/h in just 1.9 seconds, faster than Formula 1’s. The RX2 car category is just as hotly contested with Oliver Eriksson, Jesse Kallio and Ben-Philip Gundersen in the top three and 23 more drivers in pursuit.

“We’re proud to be sponsoring the Total racing team this year and to have them bring Total’s ethos to life at WRX. They’re equipped with undeniable talent and we have no doubt that they will dominate this year and add to our successes,” said Baxolile Msomi, corporate communications and marketing manager of Total South Africa.

Cape Town mayor Dan Plato said: “Cape Town has long been an event hub for exciting, adrenalin sports like motor racing, with a recent display of a Formula 1 car’s ac-

R169

celeration in our streets. The City of Cape Town is proud to once again host the World Rallycross Championship at Killarney. The drivers and their lightning fast cars will experience not only fierce competition, but everything Cape Town and its people have to offer – from the backdrop of Table Mountain, one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature, our beaches, vineyards, culture and entertainment.

“Exciting events such as this one not only showcase our city, but are a significant contributor to the local economy, jobs for Capetonians and international marketing of our destination. We welcome the WRX racers and all the visitors from abroad and elsewhere in South Africa.”

Paul Bellamy, senior vice president of IMG Motorsports, the promotor of the FIA World Rallycross Championship, said: “I am delighted to confirm that through our partnership with the City of Cape Town, we are extending our presence in South Africa for a further two years.

Bruce Parker-Forsyth, CEO of WorldSport, the newly appointed delivery partners, says: “Motorsport is a fundamental part of Cape Town culture – the World Rallycross Championship teams display the same competitiveness on track and post-race camaraderie as our local drivers – which makes it such a joy to experience first-hand. Our aim is to make it a weekend of racing the whole family can enjoy.”

Des Easom, executive manager of Killarney International Raceway, said: “The World Rallycross championship is the most exciting form of motorsport featuring some of the best drivers in the world and also offers a full day of family entertainment on and off the track.

With the championship being wide open with only one point separating the two championship contenders, we are certainly in for an absorbing final round of the championship.”

Battswood wins again SEAN CAMPBELL After being thumped 0-15 by Westridge Yankees last week, Battswood returned to winning ways by beating Lansdowne Eagles 11-9 in a Cape Town Baseball Federation Promotion League fixture which took place at Chukker Road on Saturday 26 October.

Lansdowne out-hit their opponents 14-12 but their eight errors cost them the game.

Lansdowne started their pitching with Tristan Fahrenfort who conceded eight runs in his three innings. Fahrenfort gave up four hits, four walks and struck out four Battswood hitters. He was replaced by Keagan Kulp who faired much better in his five innings stint. Kulp conceded eight hits and struck out five hitters.

Best hitters for Battswood were veteran Liall Mauritz 3/5, Lance Boyd 2/4 and Emile Van Zyl 2/5.

Tristan Fahrenfort 3/6, Keagan Kulp 2/5 and Joshua Laguma 2/5 hit well for Lansdowne.

Reagan Barnes started the pitching for Battswood. He pitched 2.2 innings, allowing two hits, four walks, three hit by pitch and striking out four hitters. He was replaced by Zimbabwean Nelson Mapika who allowed nine hits, two walks and struck out five in his 4.1 innings stint. Emile Van Zyl pitched the last two innings.

Battswood scored a further run in the fourth inning and two more in the seventh. Lansdowne scored one run in the second inning, two runs in the third, three runs in the fourth and another three runs in the seventh innings.

In a closely contested game, Westridge Yankees managed to hang on for a 6-4 win over Thistle in another Promotion League fixture which took place at Stephen Raegan Sportsground.

Luwayne Du Plessis pitch seven superb innings in which he conceded three walks, no hits and struck out seven hitters. Thistle solitary run off, Du Plessis came in the third in on two down on two errors and a wild pitch. He was replaced by his younger brother Jared who struggled to find the rhythm to close out the game. He pitched 1.1 innings conceding

three hits, four walks and two hit by pitch. Jason Norkee had to come on to get the last two outs to secure the victory.

Thistle threatened to score in the eight innings, but a line drive was caught at second base and the runner on was off his base for Yankees to record a double play. Thistle attempted a comeback in the ninth inning where they scored three runs which was not enough.
