PUTTING CHILDREN FIRST: A group of 20 young children visited the Cape Town Museum of Childhood, the flagship project of the Centre for Early Childhood Development (CECD), on Friday 20 November in celebration of Children’s Day. The children all form part of CECD’s family outreach programme in Barcelona, Gugulethu. Ranging in ages from four to six, the children were provided with a fun day of activities, including arts and crafts, performances and, of course, a tour of the museum. See page 9 for the full story.

Action plan for subways NETTALIE VILJOEN NETTALIE.VILJOEN@MEDIA24.COM
A
motion for the establishment of a City of Cape Town special task force to address the deteriorating conditions at subways made at a subcouncil 20 meeting on Wednesday 19 November was “enthusiastically supported and accepted”. Ian Iversen, the councillor for ward 59 (Rondebosch, Claremont, Kenilworth), submitted the motion. He confirms that it will now be sent on to various City departments to get their buy-in and cooperation. The motion comes in the wake of a spate of vandalism incidents at subways across the southern suburbs. Iversen says that the maintenance of the subways have been a problem for many years but, he says, it has gotten worse during the lockdown, with an increase in the theft of equipment and the number of homeless people taking shelter in subways. “When there is a problem, it is not just one

thing, it is everything. The lights are out, there is litter and people have invaded the area,” Iversen says. He explains that the City has different departments – lighting, cleansing, roads and stormwater, and social development – which address these issues individually. According to Iversen, one team will go out, sort out whichever issue falls under their mandate, and then say, “job done”. “But they haven’t completed all of the work. People work in silos. That is the issue here. We need to have a collective approach. The motion asks that the City considers identifying certain people from each of these departments to form a task team. In this way, all the problems can be managed together,” he adds. Iversen also asks that residents take a proactive role by contacting their ward councillors, letting them know when there are problems in subways so that they can action them as soon as possible. “We need to all pull together. I’ve got about 11 or 12 subways in my ward. Every Sunday afternoon, I take a walk and look at each one

of them, and take photographs of any possible problems. I do the same when it comes to looking after parks, for example, a broken bench. We have to try and sort out the problem before it becomes a major issue,” he says. Iversen first invited the public to express their views on this motion during a CapeTalk radio discussion held on the state of the subways on Tuesday 3 November. Three subways located in Rosebank (which falls in ward 57) were highlighted during the talk – those in Alma, Liesbeek and Burg roads. During the radio discussion, the programme host, Pippa Hudson, asked who is responsible for the maintenance of subways. On the panel with Iversen was Raymond Maseko, Prasa acting regional manager. According to Maseko, there was an agreement that stretched as far back as the creation of the Union of SA, “specifically for the subways that we are discussing”. “There was an agreement signed in 1959 that was actually entailing the agreement between the City of Cape Town, the administrator which was the predecessor of Prasa of

today, dealing with Liesbeek, Alma and Burg roads,” he said. Maseko explained that, according to this agreement, a subway that gave access to the railway tracks and a subway that gave access to the platforms would be maintained by Prasa. “A subway that gives access from street to street, that subway would be maintained by the City of Cape Town. This is not just a way of shifting responsibility, it was what was agreed and contained in the agreement,” he added. However, Maseko said all subways that were adjoining or are underneath the railway lines were inspected by Prasa, including those in question. “Now all of these subways, we have agreements with the City of Cape Town that is doing the maintenance thereof,” Maseko said. He went on to say that Prasa did have a maintenance programme that ran monthly which goes through subways, checking lighting, and that pumps (to drain water which collects in the subways) are working.

People’s Post journalist Samantha Lee-Jacobs PHOTO: JUSTIN JACOBS
eople’s Post journalist Samantha Lee-Jacobs (28) has bagged the national award in the opinions category at the 2020 Vodacom Journalist of the Year awards (VJOY’s). The awards ceremony was held virtually on Friday 20 November where Lee-Jacobs represented the Western Cape region after winning the regional opinion category award at the regional virtual awards ceremony on Wednesday 11 November. The awards seek to recognise journalism excellence in the country across 12 categories. In its 19th year, the competition received a record number of 1 300 entries. Lee-Jacobs’s win was accredited to three columns published in both People’s Post (“Please just stop asking ‘when’ ”, “Breaking silence”) and TygerBurger (“Think twice before driving drunk”). The judges’ citation is: “Entries in this category covered many issues, mainly political but also the economy, sports and even religion. Many of these entries – while being well-written – offered views that were common in society and did not bring anything fresh to the debate at either a national or provincial level. Our national winner displayed a skill taking seemingly small issues and relating them to some of society’s important concerns such as sexual assault, peer pressure and drunk
driving.” Lee-Jacobs says: “In writing these columns, I was able to share a bit of myself, my personal life and my own experiences with some of society’s social ills with our readers. This was also the first time I had ever spoken out about a personal encounter with sexual assault which empowered me to help others. As community journalists, we have a special role to play in connecting with readers, while sharing news and views that matter. Having won awards for telling people’s inspiring stories before, it was especially amazing and a great honour to be awarded for the vulnerability in sharing my own story.” Thulani Magazi, People’s Post editor, praised Lee-Jacobs for the achievement. “Well done, Sammy. This wonderful accomplishment is an excellent stamp of approval on what community journalism is all about. You have consistently showed and proved that community journalism is truly alive by regularly collecting awards,” says Magazi. “Walking away with a national award against some of the country’s finest writers and newspapers is a huge achievement. We are truly proud of your achievement as it not only puts your name on the South African media landscape, but our beloved People’s Post too. Congratulations! Continue doing what you do best and love most.”

FROM PAGE 1 “Where we find flooding, we maintain it if it is a Prasa-maintained subway,” Maseko said. People’s Post contacted the City, asking who is responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of subways in the southern suburbs, specifically the one in Liesbeek Road. No feedback had been received by the time of going to print. Focus on the subway in Liesbeek Road was renewed following the death of Samuel Bagalwa (27) on Wednesday 21 October. While police are still investigating the exact circumstances surrounding his death, it has been alleged that Bagalwa was hit and killed by a train while crossing the railway tracks in the vicini-
ty of Guildford and Alma roads. It has been alleged he had crossed the tracks because he was unable to use the subway located in Liesbeek Road. The subway, according to reports, had been flooded at the time.” For eight months before his death, Bagalwa had rented a room from Lynne Ferguson who lives close to Liesbeek subway. Ferguson says that Bagalwa, a qualified mechanical engineer who hailed from the Congo, was very interested in civic affairs. She describes him as a very gentle, genuine person. “He had mentioned to my son-inlaw about two or three days before (his death) that he was going to organise a clean-up (of the Liesbeek subway); he mentioned it because he couldn’t pass through there.”

City closes walk-in centre C
laremont residents wanting to visit a City of Cape Town customer walk-in centre will have to travel to Plumstead in future. On Wednesday 18 November, the City issued a media release, stating that the walk-in centre located on the corner of Bath and Main roads in Claremont has been permanently closed. “Prior to the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic and national lockdown, the City investigated the popularity of this office. The investigation found that, at most, about 15 customers visited this office on a given day.
As part of the City’s commitment to cost-saving and efficiency, this office has been closed,” the release read. The City encouraged residents to visit the nearby walk-in centre in Plumstead, which is located in the Plessey Building on the corner of Victoria and Main roads, or to switch to its online and retail options available for account and rental payments.

Schools go green T
he compounding effects of urbanisation on biodiversity as well as the inaccessibility of green spaces and their associated ecosystem services has motivated Greenpop to expand its Urban Greening programme to include the conservation of fynbos and other indigenous flora in Cape Town. Founded in 2010, Greenpop works to restore ecosystems and empower environmental stewards through reforestation, urban greening, sustainable development, and environmental art projects across subSaharan Africa. The organisation has, since its inception, planted over 136 000 trees and inspired over 150 000 active citizens across South Africa, Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania. Now, its Fynbos for the Future programme aims to inspire a green urban future where biodiversity is accessible, valued and protected by an active, engaged and inspired citizenry through community-oriented urban nature conservation. To achieve this, the programme creates interactive fynbos learning spaces in under-greened schools and has implemented a three-year programme engaging learners and communities in the effective management and conservation of fynbos. As part of its Fynbos programme, Greenpop is working with 10 under-resourced schools to plant water-wise fynbos gardens. These gardens will have many benefits, including: . Helping to reconnect urban biodiversity corridors. . Instilling a love of nature in learners. . Creating green space for learners. . Creating empowered environmental stewards. . Promoting water-wise practices, and . Encouraging active community en-
Greenpop has been turning urban spaces into green spaces at schools across Cape Town. PHOTO: GREENPOP/FACEBOOK gagement. In addition, the installation of fynbos gardens will provide numerous ecological benefits. Planting indigenous modular gardens (vertical gardens to make use of limited space) will help stabilise the soil and limit erosion; provide habitat to a wide variety of native fauna; increase biodiversity and thus resilience to environmental changes; provide habitat for pollinators, thus securing food resources; and act as air and water filtration, among others. Schools that form part of the programme include, among others, Mountain Road Primary School in Woodstock, Trafalgar High School in District Six, Strandfontein Primary School in Strandfontein, Vulamasango Child and Youth Facility and Sinethemba High School in Philippi, Alicedale Primary School and Cypress Primary School in Athlone, and Highlands Primary School in Woodlands.

Ways to prevent undue dog bites E
very three days, a child is treated for serious dog bites. In 2019, 101 children were treated for dog bites and these children were between the ages of five and 12 years. So says ChildSafe, an injury prevention unit based at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital. The non-profit organisation (NPO) is encouraging all parents and dog owners to be aware of the risks involved with dog bites. “Dog bites often happen during everyday activities among children and seniors,” says Yolande Baker, executive director, ChildSafe. ChildSafe advises that people be cautious around strange dogs and treat personal dogs with respect. Tips for parents and caregivers: . Never leave a baby or small child alone with a dog. . Be alert for potentially dangerous situations. . Teach children, including toddlers, to be careful around pets. . Children must learn not to approach strange dogs or try to pet dogs through fences. . Teach children to ask permission from the dog’s owner before petting the dog. There are also steps dog owners can take. Some of these are carefully selecting your pet – puppies should not be obtained on impulse – and making sure your pet is socialised as a young puppy so it feels at ease around people and other animals. Also train your dog. Basic commands help dogs understand what is expected of them and help build a bond of trust between pets and people.
Other tips for dog owners include: . Don’t put your dog in a position where it feels threatened or teased. . Be calm. Always talk in a quiet voice or whisper, no shouting. . Walk and exercise your dog regularly to keep it healthy and provide mental stimulation. . Avoid highly excitable games like wrestling or tug of war. . Use a leash in public to ensure you are able to control your dog. . Keep your dog healthy. . Have your dog vaccinated to safeguard it against rabies and other preventable infectious diseases. . Parasite control and other health care is important because how your dog feels affects how it behaves. . If you have a fenced yard, make sure your gates are secure. . Neuter your pet. Approximately 92% of fatal dog attacks involved male dogs, 94% of which were not neutered. If you are bitten, here is a checklist of things you should do: . If the dog’s owner is present, request proof of rabies vaccination, and get the owner’s name and contact information. . Clean the bite wound with soap and water as soon as possible. . Consult your doctor immediately or go to the emergency room if it is after office hours. . Contact the dog’s veterinarian to check vaccination records. V For more information on prevention of dog bites, call ChildSafe on 021 685 5208 or visit www.childsafe.org.za.

Mother relates how she survived the pandemic A
mother has sent a heartfelt appreciation to front line workers in the Western Cape after beating Covid-19. When Natheera Hermans tested positive for the Coronavirus she feared for the well-being of her children, mother and elderly grandfather, whom she shares a two-bedroom home with. The mother of two says nothing could have prepared her for receiving the news of a positive test result. “I told myself, no . . . it can’t be the Coronavirus. I kept on having positive thoughts. I told myself they just wanted to rule it out, that is why they tested me. I wasn’t prepared to tell my kids, and I wasn’t prepared myself. I have two children and elderly parents with chronic medical conditions at home and I was so afraid that I would infect them and jeopardise their health.” Natheera felt ill on Sunday 23 August, and used over-the counter medication. But two days later she struggled to breathe and knew she had to visit her doctor, as she was also was diagnosed with asthma. Her doctor took no chances and referred her to Natheera Hermans has survived Covid-19.

“I want to say thank you to every single person from the site managers to nurses on duty, security and cleaners. You guys are amazing, and I thank God for sending me here because I was able to rest stress-free and was well taken care of. No words can describe the gratitude I have for your kindness and generosity.” When she struggled to switch off from work while recovering, words of encouragement from front line workers eased her mind. The mother was discharged from the facility on Friday 4 September and couldn’t hold back her tears as she saw her children for the first time in 10 days. “When I saw my kids again, I remembered this was the first time we were away from each other. I was very emotional. I was actually overwhelmed. Tears rolled down my face. They shouted: ‘Mommy, mommy.’ I could not wait to get out of the taxi. I dropped my bags and they ran to me.” It was her family and positive thinking that kept her motivated during her recovery. “I have had so many opportunities to stay positive. I had reasons to give up, but I never did. Life will throw curveballs, but you can make the best of it. I thought I was not going to make it; my immune system was compromised from day one because I had been sick. I had underlying conditions. But I want to say this, remain positive. Think about all the things that motivate you, like wanting to see your family.” With social distancing in place, she was able to see her fiancé and one of her daughters through a window visit. “My fiancé visited from outside the window; they (staff) guided the visit. It was very nice.” She encourages the public to remain vigilant as the world continues the battle against the virus. “Take the virus seriously. Prepare yourself should it happen to you. Take good care of yourself and your body. Eat healthy. Practise general hygiene.”
Park Island closed to dogs No dogs will be allowed in the Park Island section of the Zandvlei Nature Reserve until Friday 1 January next year after a dog hunted and killed a juvenile Cape grysbok. The incident happened on Monday 9 November. The dog was allegedly not kept on a leash – a contravention of the reserve rules that pets be on a leash at all times. The rule is also prominently displayed at the entrance to Park Island. “Unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident of visitors disregarding the rules of the reserve and Park Island. As such, we decided to close this section to dogs to allow the fauna on the island to recover and to prevent further damage to the sensitive faunal populations,” says Mayco member for spatial planning and environment, Marian Nieuwoudt. Park Island is home to the cape clawless otter, water mongoose, Cape grysbok, the angulate tortoise, snakes, the western leopard toad and more. The incident is being investigated and the situation will be closely monitored. “Our nature reserves are there for the enjoyment and use by the public, but I want to remind all that upon entering, visitors agree to abide by the rules. It is sad that some dog owners cannot control their pets and that we had to take this drastic step. The ban applies to Park Island only, however, we want to urge visitors to Wildwood Island to please keep their dogs on a leash,” says Nieuwoudt. Non-compliance is an offence under the National Environmental Management Protected Areas act.

Celebrating unique flare The Cape Town Carnival held the fourth of its triweekly workshops aimed at stimulating and connecting Cape Town Carnival performers, artists and members of the public. The spotlight was on Umswenko, a fashion and music subculture originating in the 1970s among Zulu hostel dwellers, used to celebrate, entertain, and show off a sense of impeccable style, fashion and music, and build a higher degree of self-expression and selfconfidence. “It merged traditional and modern African and European culture, which gave off a vibrant, masculine feel of identity and self-confidence, especially in a hostile working environment,” says Khanyisile Mbongwa, curatorial- and socio-critical adviser at Cape Town Carnival.
Accompanied by fun and energetic performances by the carnival’s lead performers, the audience were treated to musical representations of Umswenko; from the a cappellastyle choral sounds of Isicathamiya – originally sung by migrant Zulu men in the 1930s, to Ntembeko Njaba’s street-style rapping, and Kwaito and Hip Hop-influenced Riky Rick’s own version of Umswenko. The fashionable styles of Umswenko were on full display, including Izikhothane, a flashy, branded and cult-style of street fashion, worn for showmanship and dance battles; iJewish – quality clothing that is expensive and stylish; and uNayathela ini ngani, fashionable footwear that often included brands like Gerani and Carvela; and Drag a queer form of Umswenko that combines makeup and clothing to exaggerate a specific gender identity. “Umswenko embodies a deliberate celebratory self-expression and a choice around how we present ourselves. Carnival as a whole is a platform for selfexpression; either of your fullest true self or an aspect of who you are. This includes who you choose to associate with and how you share yourself with the world,” says Brad Baard, creative director for the Cape Town Carnival. The public are invited to attend the Cultural Creative Workshops. V Sign up for the next workshop by visiting the website: http://capetowncarnival.com/online-cultural-creativeworkshop-series/

AWARDS
Local film excels on world stage KAYLYNNE BANTOM
L
ocally produced film Barakat has received international recognition. The film was recently awarded Best Narrative at the 23rd Reel Sisters of the Diaspora Festival in the United States of America. The festival is devoted to supporting films produced, directed and written by women of colour. The award ceremony was held virtually on Tuesday 17 November. Directed by local screenwriter Amy Jephta and produced by Ephraim Gordon, Barakat is the first Muslim movie in Afrikaans. The film celebrates life, culture and family importance. Barakat is an Arabic word meaning blessings, explains Jephta. She says the film started as a comedy and ended up being about grief. “At first sight, we appeared to want to tell a light-hearted story about a family of feuding brothers brought together to sabotage their mother’s love life. What the film actually wanted to be about, is how we deal with the loss of one of our own – in this case, a
father and patriarch,” she says. Jephta says the film portrays the life of four sons who had drifted apart since the death of their father. Their aging mother aims to bring together her dysfunctional family over Eid-ul-Fitr to break the news that she is about to remarry. Her big reveal is spoiled when the boys hear via the grapevine about their mother’s pending nuptials and come together to voice their disapproval of the match. Jephta says the film was shot in Athlone, Gatesville and the Cape Flats, as these areas are rarely screened in South African movies. “The Cape is a melting pot of cultures, with an exciting diversity in our communities, and we wanted to show people that regardless of faith, they can watch the film and proudly say ‘this is us’.” The cast features Vinette Ebrahim, Bonnie Mbuli, Joey Rasdien and Quanita Adams, among others actors. South Africans audiences will have to be patient a little while longer as the film will only be released locally in May next year.
Cape Town registers the ‘lowest’ unemployment rate

Despite the rising unemployment figures in South Africa, Cape Town still has the lowest unemployment figures to date. This is according to James Vos, Mayco member for economic opportunities, who in a statement says: “I have noted the unemployment figures in the Quarterly Labour Force Survey for the third quarter of 2020. I welcome the fact that Cape Town still has the lowest expanded unemployment rate of all metros at 29,1%.” Between April and September, the City’s Strategic Business Partners (SBPs) collectively facilitated R8.8 billion worth of in-
vestment, created 4 980 jobs and trained 1 366 people, despite the various stages of lockdown and economic downturn we have faced. “A key component of the Economic Action Plan (EAP), developed by the economic task team I set up to respond to the impact of the lockdown on our economy, was to ensure that our SBPs pivoted their plans and used the funding from the City to support businesses,” says Plato. “What has become clear, is that the City’s EAP is the best chance for economic readiness and recovery because it is working.”

Kids celebrated on ‘special day’ NETTALIE VILJOEN
G
iggles and laughter filled the air at the Cape Town Museum of Childhood, the flagship project of the Centre for Early Childhood Development (CECD), as a group of 20 young children visited the premises to celebrate Universal Children’s Day on Friday 20 November. Located at 3 Milner Road in Rondebosch, the museum provides an institution for the heritage, documentation, memory, oral history, research, and interpretation of childhood. Although not yet open to the public, the museum with its child-friendly rooms – such as its activity room, story room and outdoor play area – proved to be the perfect location to host this special event which welcomed children who form part of CECD’s family outreach programme in Barcelona,

Children had a ball in the playroom at the Cape Town Museum of Childhood on Friday. reach programme previously and received training to be playgroup facilitators, often go on to become caregivers. Caregivers recruited for this programme are often unemployed or have informal, inconsistent work, and are at home with their young children. CECD empowers and supports these caregivers to set up playgroups. The playgroups take place twice a week and are a place for the children to engage in early learning and social play. “ECD programmes provide young children with opportunities for social, emotional, cognitive and physical growth that leads to their all-round healthy development and well-being, and greater prospects for their
future,” says Professor Eric Atmore, director of the Centre for Early Childhood Development. CECD also held Universal Children’s Day celebrations at two ECD centres, which it works with, in Westlake – Mountainview Educare and Jabulani Educare. The 52 children enrolled at Mountainview and the 30 children enrolled at Jabulani were surprised on the day with a magic show from students from the College of Magic, a nonprofit organisation based in Claremont, and provided with special party packs, courtesy of the CECD.

Gugulethu. The children, ranging in age from four to six, were provided with a fun day of activities, including arts and crafts, performances and, of course, a tour of the museum. According to Najwah Mukadam of CECD, World Children’s Day is celebrated annually to commemorate the Declaration of the Rights of the Child by the UN General Assembly. “Universal Children’s Day is an important day on our calendar and each year we aim to celebrate it with our country’s youngest citizens. CECD is committed to putting young children first by ensuring quality early childhood development for them,” she says. The CECD’s family outreach programme targets the most vulnerable families with young children who cannot attend an early childhood development (ECD) centre (or preschool). The programme provides a package of support to these families and includes home visits, parenting workshops, food parcels, playgroups and a support network. Bridget Kahts, programme manager at the CECD, says the programme focuses on empowering families and improving childcare in the home environment which is recognised as the primary place of learning for young children, with parents being the first teachers. “Seventy percent of children in South Africa are not in any form of ECD provision. Through this programme, we identify and recruit families who need support by going door-to-door in the Barcelona community in Gugulethu. The aim is to provide children with the head-start they need to succeed in formal schooling and later in life,” adds Kahts. Parents, who were part of the family out-

Social media post results in arrest T
he quick dissemination of news about a laptop theft in Claremont recently led to the successful arrest of a suspect and the recovery of the stolen property. “It was just before 20:00 on Thursday evening (12 November) when a message on a Claremont message board appeared, describing a theft that had occurred along Josephine Road. One of our officers responded to the message and went to the address to investigate,” says Jade Hanning, Cape Town South district manager at Fidelity ADT. “He met the complainant who told him that an unidentified person had gained access to his property, and stole a laptop, an IPad and an IPhone before running away. A description of the alleged suspect was shared to all community WhatsApp groups in the immediate area.” Hanning says it wasn’t long after this that a member of the HarLyn Watch saw
a person walking along Imam Haroon Road that matched the description given. “The neighbourhood watch patroller alerted our officer, and he quickly located the suspect and stopped him.” A search of the alleged suspect led to the discovery of a laptop, and IPad and an IPhone. “Our officer took the suspect to the Claremont police station and asked that the complainant also make his way there. The suspect was positively identified, and the recovered items were also positively identified by the complainant,” says Hanning. “This story shows how a responsible use of community social media platforms can make a massive difference in the fight against crime. If you haven’t joined your local group’s platforms yet, we recommend that you consider doing so as soon as you can.”
