KENILWORTH
Clean-up goes off the rails NETTALIE VILJOEN
A
Kenilworth railway community cleaning campaign was cancelled just 15 minutes after it began on Saturday 28 September. A team of about 10 community members, who were joined by Ian Iversen, councillor for Ward 59, and Sharon Cottle, councillor for ward 58, were told to stop their clean-up activities after George Kiewiets, Metrorail special project manager for the Western Cape region, received a call, saying that permission for the clean-up had been withdrawn. The operation was called off after safety complaints were received from Kenilworth Residents’ Association (KRA) committee member Rory Moore.
Moore was present at Kenilworth station, the designated meeting place for community members wanting to assist, on Saturday. According to sources, who asked not to be named, Moore said Prasa was putting residents in harm’s way by getting them to do its work. He said the area designated for clean-up (starting at Kenilworth station down to Wetton bridge), was littered with syringes and human excrement. He allegedly said the team who had volunteered to help weren’t qualified to safely handle such items. He allegedly told one of the volunteers, Gail Brown, who has been actively involved in railway clean-ups for the past eight years, that she did not belong there. People’s Post contacted Moore, but he de-
clined to comment. In an open letter to Prasa, Brown said the closing down of the community railway clean-up was a sad day and reminiscent of the apartheid era. “The fact that it was brought about by a small, anachronistic part of the community, through which the train runs and who stand to benefit most, is baffling,” said Brown. In answer to the issue of safety and not being qualified to clean up, she asked what qualifications were needed to pick up litter. “The bulk of the litter is paper, plastic and glass. We carry buckets for the glass so it can be recycled,” she said. As far as syringes and excrement were concerned, Brown said that she had rarely seen a needle in her many years of railway clean-ups.
“It is easy enough to tell everyone to let them lie and we normally ignore human poop or spade it into a hole and put sand over it.” Henk Egberink, a community activist who helped organise the clean-up, says planning started in June after he was approached by community members from Rosmead. “Residents were complaining of vagrants who were sleeping next to the railway line. We also received quite a few complaints about the state of Wetton bridge close to the taxi rank.” He said, following procedure, he contacted Kiewiets to get the ball rolling. On Thursday 1 August, Kiewiets, with his security team, met with Egberink to do a safety and security assessment of the area. V To page 2.

ot even a South African Weather Service alert forecasting adverse weather around the Western Cape coastline with stormy conditions could keep avid supporters of Boston Terrier Rescue South Africa home on Sunday 29 September. Braving the storm, the registered nonprofit company (NPO) went ahead with its Cape Town Boston Meet held at the Green Point Cricket Club from 11:00 to 15:00. Fiona Strydom of the NPO said there were concerns surrounding attendance, but, seeing that everything had already been arranged, there was no going back. “We weren’t going to disappoint our Bostie fans by cancelling the event. The Boston community, which feels like one big family, is one of a kind (online and in-person).” Strydom says even though they knew Bostie fans would come out to support them, they were still overwhelmed by their attendance and big hearts. Besides southern suburb residents, people came from as far afield as Strand, Paarl, Langebaan and Stellenbosch to show their support. About 157 humans and an estimated 50 Boston Terriers attended the event. “It is difficult to count when you have a
FROM PAGE 1 “We found one vagrant and there weren’t any signs of syringes or human excrement. It was decided to go ahead,” Egberink said. He reached out to KRA to garner community support. A representative for the association referred him to Moore. “I contacted Rory Moore several times, asking for his support to raise awareness of the campaign,” Egberink said. None was forthcoming, he said. A community notice was also posted on the Democratic Alliance’s Rondebosch/Claremont branch Facebook page, asking for support. Egberink says, thus far, railway cleanup projects were usually met with support from communities. “In May, Harfield Village cleaned the area from Kenilworth Station to Harfield Station. Then came the railway track along White Road in Newlands,” he said. He described what happened as disappointing. “This was supposed to be a community-building exercise. There are two communities involved, one on each side of the railway line. Neither side controls the area. How can one community tell the other that they are not allowed to arrange a clean-up? Nobody should have that right,” Egberink said. Iversen said several residents volunteered to assist with the clean up and, therefore, it was difficult to understand why those who didn’t want to take part in the campaign went out of their way to

force the cancellation of the project. “I am disappointed that Prasa allowed itself to be bullied into cancelling a community event to assist with the clean up of the rail reserve area,” he said. A People’s Post reporter, who had visited Kenilworth station during the Harfield clean-up (“Clean tracks at stations”, 14 May), said discarded underwear and broken glass had been found during the event. Kiewiets said Saturday’s event was more of an awareness exercise and that the Prasa team and station cleaners had prepared the rail reserve site for community engagement on 18, 25, 26 and 27 September. Preparations included the trimming of trees and collection of most of the litter. He said he also completed a safety check before the start of the clean-up. In addition, Prasa provided 200 black bags and 100 pairs of gloves. Two security officers from its mobile team were also present. “Despite internal differences between some individuals, the objective – a cleaning exercise and to create awareness – was achieved. Thank you to the community members, Wynberg police, law enforcement Wynberg, councillor Iversen and councillor Cottle for their contribution,” said Kiewiets. Prasa regional manager Richard Walker indicated that issues raised would be discussed with relevant parties at a later date.

bunch of Bostons bouncing around everywhere,” says Strydom. “There is something about Bosties that make humans go the extra mile for them. This again proved Bostie owners’ commitment and care.” The raffle prizes up for grabs might have had something to do with it as well. Except for the Bostie dash, which had to be cancelled due to intermittent rain, activities went ahead as planned. Doggy biscuits, stickers, tote bags, notebooks, mugs and fridge magnet note pads, all with a Boston logo, were on sale. A pet photographer, Angie Fullard, also took photos of Bosties with their owners at the meet. According to Strydom, at least R11 000 was raised at the event which will go towards vet bills and other expenses. “It was a fundraising event, but we also wanted to create awareness about our rescue organisation and give Boston Terrier owners the opportunity to socialise with other Bostie lovers.” Strydom says they plan to make this an annual event. The NPO is made up of a small group of dedicated volunteers from around the country. Together they rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abandoned, unwanted, neglected and surrendered dogs of any age.

COMMUNITY CHAMPIONS ELDERS AWARD
Masiphumelele’s Lydia helps others RACINE EDWARDES @RaeEdwardes
L
ydia Nogaga, a 76-year-old resident from Masiphumelele has been nominated for a Community Champions Elders Award by the subcouncil 19 chair, Patricia Francke. She is one of the top three finalists in the 70 to 80 years category of the awards presented by the People’s Post, TygerBurger and City Vision newspapers, in partnership with Spec-Savers. Lydia, who previously worked with children, has been running a club called Yizani Sibonisane Seniors’ Club since 2015. The club meets every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 10:00 to 14:00. “I found out that the old people are left alone at home. Their children are working and some of them can’t do much. To sit at home doing nothing – or to be left with children – is no good for them,” she says, adding that she had another seniors’ club previously but could not continue due to lack of support. The club has about 52 elders, including those with physical and mental challenges, who take part in the activities planned by Lydia and Thabisa Manyase, who began assisting her after the club had begun. Thabisa says: “I make the food, ask for donations, and make a plan for funding. Lydia started before me, and after I left my job
at Pick n Pay, I just wanted to do something that’s worth it and feels like I’m doing something different.” She says it is fulfilling to do the work she does, to cater to the sometimes forgotten members of the community. The club receives donations from Pick n Pay, Food Lover’s Market and Checkers Muizenberg; and they are in the process applying for funding with the department of social development, “but it’s very difficult,” says Thabisa. Lydia says the club is important because it keeps the minds and bodies of the seniors active. Francke, who believes Lydia is deserving of the recognition, wrote in her nomination: “Lydia assists the elderly by getting their medication, taking it to their homes and supplying them with their necessary needs. She loves what she’s doing for the community and always strives to do more where she can.” The club needs wool, pots and donations for petrol to pick up and drop off seniors on each day that the club meets. V To donate or for more information call Thabisa on 076 871 2511 or email tmanyase@rocketmail.com. V The winners of the awards will be announced at a morning tea on Saturday 12 October in Cape Town. Winners and runners-up will walk away with Shoprite vouchers and other prizes sponsored by TygerBurger, People’s Post, City Vision and Spec-Savers.

CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT
Injongo Project donates to educare T
he Christian Church Educare centre in Philippi recently received a makeover thanks to the Injongo Project, an initiative that upgrades educare centres in communities around Cape Town. The initiative, run by the Rotary Club of Claremont and the Lewis Group, focuses on providing the communities of Philippi and Masiphumelele with fully functioning early childhood development (ECD) centres, to ensure a high quality of educational support for young children. Speaking at the official opening of the refurbished school, Rotarian David Grant said investing in ECD was at the core of Rotary Claremont and the Lewis Group. “We are here now to hand the school over and it will go from strength to strength. It is important that we put time and effort into children’s education; it is paying off,” Grant said. Upgrades to Christian Church ECD included renovations to the kitchen, new classrooms, ablution facilities, walkways, a
jungle gym area with astroturf and upgrades to the security of the centre. The Injongo Project provides a range of holistic interventions such as extensive teacher training, the partial upgrade of existing facilities, and daily mentoring for quality assurance to support 61 centres. To date, Rotary Claremont, with financial support from the Lewis Group, has upgraded 15 centres, presenting a total investment of R22 million. The Lewis Group has been a sponsorship partner of the Injongo Project for the past seven years. “It is extremely important to us to focus on the communities that support us as a company; this project fits solidly within this objective,” says Les Davies, director at the Lewis Group. “We are committed to the children and their education, because this country will not succeed without educating our children,” Davies said.

ROAD RULES
City proposes changes to traffic bylaw T
EM
The bylaw, first introduced in 2011, has been amended to include five new chapters dealing with powers and duties of authorised officials, equipment on or in respect of vehicles, animals, driving while under the influence and impoundment of vehicles and forfeiture to the City. It opened for public participation on Tuesday 1 October. The chairperson of the City’s safety and security portfolio committee, councillor Mzwakhe Nqavashe said: “Currently, the City’s traffic officers are allowed to impound public transport vehicles where the driver does not have an operating license or is operating in contravention of their license.
The draft amendments make provision for the impoundment of private vehicles under certain circumstances.” Nqavashe said statistics showed, year-onyear, that there was no change in behaviour relating to transgressions like illegal street racing and driving under the influence of alcohol or other intoxicating substances. “The portfolio committee devised the amendments, in consultation with various other parties, in a bid to force road users who insist on breaking the rules of the road with reckless abandon to change their behaviour, and make our roads safer for all,” he said.
Also, the chapter dealing with public transport operators now includes a section that speaks specifically to the e-hailing sector. It requires drivers of e-hailing vehicles operating within the City’s jurisdiction to clearly display a tag identifying the vehicle as such, along with a valid operating license. The public participation process runs until Thursday 31 October. Submissions can be made online at www.capetown.gov.za or view the draft bylaw at your local library or subcouncil office. Written submissions can be delivered to the nearest subcouncil office. V The amended draft bylaw document is available at http://bit.co/trafficbylaw.

he proposed impoundment of private vehicles set out in the City’s amended traffic bylaw, if approved, will give authorised officials the right, without prior written notice, to impound the vehicles of unlicensed drivers, drunk drivers and street racers as well as unregistered, unlicensed and damaged vehicles. Mayco member for safety and security, JP Smith said this really shouldn’t come as a surprise. “As things stand, a motorist arrested for drunk-driving gets right back in the driver’s seat the next day and many of them re-offend because there appear to be very few consequences,” said Smith.

ARD host successful 3-Vlei race A
RD athletic club held its nineth annual 3-vlei road race through the streets of Grassy Park on Sunday 6 October. The race has a unique characteristic as it takes the participants in the 10km distance past the iconic Princess Vlei, Rondevlei and Zeekoei Vlei. This year saw over 2 200 people participating in the main race with a remarkable increase in the 5km fun run of 1 400 pairs of feet enjoying the well-organised event.
Nkosiyethu Sotyanja of Multi-sport MSA (30:44) and the ever impressive Pamela Moyikwa of RC Langa (37:24) took the no.1 podium positions in the men’s and women’s races respectively. The much talked about sub-60-minute shield on offer for finishers of the 10km by the race organiser was once again the highlight of the event for the club runners, with many recording their personal bests on the flat route.

The series has one clear goal in mind – to crown SA’s best athletics school. “The Twizza Super School Series delivered fine competition in track and field today,” says Athletics South Africa president, Aleck Skhosana. “We are laying a foundation for future stars in youth, junior and ultimately the seniors. The great spirit of athletics between winners and those who didn’t win the titles of the day was truly inspirational. Schools competed against each other, made friends and produced outstanding talent. We are now looking forward to seeing what the Grand Finale holds in store in February 2020.” Paarl Boys’ High School was dominant at the event, with Boland Agricultural High School finishing second, while Parel Vallei came in third. Wynberg Boys’ High School was the best placed team from the southern
suburbs, finishing ninth in the division, with South Peninsula and Portland High Schools finishing in 14th and 15th places respectively. La Rochelle Girls High School took the lead in the girls competition. Paarl Girls high School came in second, while Bloemhof Girls High School finished third. South Peninsula High School finished 11th in this category. The mixed competition was won by Parel Vallei, with Bellville finishing second and HTS Drosdy third, with South Peninsula’s mixed team finishing ninth. “The schools from the Eastern and Western Cape really impressed us,” says Lance Coertzen, Twizza group marketing manager. “Witnessing the camaraderie between athletes and schools truly was heartwarming. We commend each and every athlete for their efforts and hope that you will be rewarded with a spot at the Twizza Super School Series Grand Finale that will take place at the Bestmed Tuks Athletics Stadium on Saturday 1 February 2020. The overall top 40 boys and girls teams will advance to the Twizza Super School Series Grand Finale next year.
