‘Books open doors’ KAYLYNNE BANTOM KAYLYNNE.BANTOM@MEDIA24.COM
“O
pen a book and you can be anything that you want to be.” So reads an abstract from a poem by American author Jane Baskwill. The poem was read by Grade 3 learner Owethu Dondolo at the official opening of a new library at Walmer Estate Primary School on Thursday 12 November. The poem was read to inspire learners and teachers at the school in the hope that the facility would encourage the culture of reading among learners. Work on the library began at the start of the year, with the charitable Otto Foundation converting a small, rarely used school hall into a state-of-the-art library. The foundation aims to help improve literacy levels and to inspire a love of reading among children. The R500 000 project also made provision for the hiring of a qualified librarian. The library is fitted with a projector, sound system and wipe-off whiteboard tables. For those who prefer laying down while reading, they can do so on the artificial grass mat and pillows provided. The neatly spaced shelves are packed with hundreds of books, novels, picture books, fiction and non-fiction reads mostly from local authors and publishers. A protea theme is accentuated throughout the library with colourful art pieces against the wall. Denize Kellerman, principal at the school, describes the library as a welcoming asset for learners. She says the school has been struggling for years with low systemic literacy results. “This is a dream come true for us and the foundation. We believe it will improve the literacy levels at the school and enhance what our teachers are trying so hard to achieve with the children in the classroom,” she says. According to Kellerman, teachers are now struggling to keep learners away from the library. “They want to be there all the time because it’s so beautiful and comfortable. It’s an inviting space so our learners actually want to be there and they are excited when it’s their library time,” she says. Nonikiwe Masholugu, literacy director at the foundation, says research shows that reading for enjoyment is more important for

children’s educational success than their family’s socio-economic status. She says it is for this reason that the foundation invests in school libraries and in programmes aimed at encouraging South African children to read. Masholugu says: “We’ve noticed that there is a link between kids performing well later on in life if they have been exposed to books from a young age.” She says they wanted to create a nice interactive space where kids can feel comfortable. “There are pillows, so they can lie down and read. We also have tables where kids can
write on the table and then wipe it off again. They love the fact that they can write on furniture, it’s very exciting for them,” she says. Premier Alan Winde, who attended the opening, says reading plays an important role in any person’s life. He says the Covid-19 pandemic impacted negatively on children. “I believe this library will make a massive difference for the learners here. The seeds that will grow here are the seeds that will be the leaders of tomorrow,” says Winde, promising to get officials from the provincial department of education’s safe schools programme to work with
the school to ensure its safety. Owethu describes library time as his favourite time of the day at school. “I like it because when it’s time to go to the library, they always give us something nice to do. I like the paintings on the wall,” says Owethu. Grade 4 learner Lithemba Magqaza says he likes reading fantasy books. “We never had a proper library. Now we get to read new books. I like to read because they teach me new words.” Magqaza believes books will help him achieve his dream of becoming an electrical engineer.

Offenders’ families duped The Department of Correctional Services (DCS) has issued a warning to the family members of offenders not to fall victim to a scam making the rounds. In a statement released last week, DCS said that the Western Cape region management had noted with concern recent reports by families of offenders being called by people claiming to be DCS officials. “These people call family members of offenders and tell them to deposit money either at Shoprite or Checkers or through a Capitec bank account using the cellular phone numbers they are calling from. DCS advised the public that they would never call the families or request money for a prisoner’s release, and urged them to report the fraudsters to the police when asked to pay.

CITY BOWL
Extortion a rising threat KAYLYNNE BANTOM
C
ape Town central police are urging businesses around the central business district (CBD) to report any form of extortion amid mounting claims of the practice. According to police, extortion is becoming prevalent in and around the CBD. Thieves are not only targeting businesses and shop owners, but also taxi drivers and home-owners. Capt Ezra October, communications officer at the station, explains that extortion and blackmail involve threats made against another person to do violence to that person or their property. This can include publicising facts about that person to damage his or her reputation – for the purpose of extracting money or other property from the person. In recent weeks, claims of extortion and gang-related shootings have rocked the Cape Flats. October says it’s important that people work with police and report any incidence where they are blackmailed. He says agreeing to pay will only make matters worse. He adds that once the criminal realises that you are willing to pay, they will only make further demands which could lead to further victimisation. October says: “Business owners, neighbourhood watch members and the broader public are also advised to be vigilant and report suspicious behaviour immediately when noticed.” In a media statement, the Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry said there is ev-
idence to suggest that Cape Town businesses are being extorted. “Extorting protection money from small businesses in swathes of the city has become so lucrative, so easy, and its consequences so remote, that criminals have expanded their threats to ordinary people with jobs,” read the statement. It added: “Should this slide into lawlessness continue, economic recovery and job creation will be severely hampered. It is critical that (police) minister Bheki Cele makes good on the promise he made six weeks ago to launch a task team to curb this scourge, now aimed not only at business but at the poorest of ordinary citizens.” JP Smith, Mayco member for safety and security, says the organised crime relating to extortion will not be addressed meaningfully by visible policing. He adds that it requires detection, investigation and successful prosecution to ensure that the extortionists are held accountable. He called for urgent intervention from Cele. “Although the City is very eager to see improvement and resolution of this crisis, our powers are limited to supporting the police and applying pressure on national government to follow through on its promises, which is what we are now doing,” says Smith. Meanwhile, minister of community safety Albert Fritz says he wrote to Cele requesting that a transversal steering committee (steercom) on organised crime and extortion in the province be convened. “Reports have shown that the ‘Guptas’
and the ‘Boko Haram’ gangs in townships such as Gugulethu, Nyanga, Khayelitsha, Mfuleni, Philippi East, and formerly ‘coloured’ townships are targeting our community members, local businesses, early childhood centres, and even government officials. It is for this reason that I am calling on minister Cele to urgently convene this steercom,” says Fritz. V Victims are requested to report incidences on police extortion Hotline number 021 466 0011 or Crime Stop, 08600 10111.
Guard against extortion Police share safety tips for victims and potential victims: . Use an alternative method of communication. . Report the incident to authorities. . Avoid putting personal information on social networks that could be used by criminals to convince loved ones of your identity. . Maintain a separate messaging system used only by loved ones that can be used in emergency situations to identify the whereabouts of each member. . Always notify loved ones of where you are going (with estimated times of arrival and departure), before leaving your house or office.
NHW concerns raised over amendment bill The department of community safety, commenting on the South African Police Service Amendment Bill, has noted “concerning provisions” on the registration of neighbourhood watches (NHW). Addressing the media on Monday 2 November, the provincial minister of community safety, Albert Fritz, highlighted the comments submitted by the department on the amendment bill as well as its concerns, particularly as they relate to NHWs. According to one of the clauses – Clause 81 Section 6A (9) – proposed in the amendment bill, it will be expected of NHWs to be registered with community policing forums (CPFs) in future. Fritz is of the opinion that this is unreasonable. “CPFs’ objectives differ from that of NHWs. Their main objective is oversight over the police as set out in section 18 of the bill and NHWs are not police officials nor do they have any policing function. Their role is to act as the eyes and ears of the community through patrols,” he said. To date, there are approximately 307 NHW structures accredited with the department. The NHWs have benefitted from
The minister of community safety, Albert Fritz, briefs the media on the police amendment bill on 2 November. training, funding and increased accountability. Fritz said it was also unclear what was meant by “registration”. He added that the Western Cape Community Safety Act (WCCSA) made provision for the accreditation of NHWs with the department. “A conflict of interest may arise from the NHW accrediting themselves with the department and registering with the CPF. It is suggested
that clear criteria be set for registration.” The bill further proposes a system that members of a community may establish a voluntary neighbourhood patrolling or NHW association. However, Fritz stated that the WCCSA already made provision for the voluntary accreditation of NHWs. Fritz reasoned that the complete section 6A should not be applicable to the Western Cape. He further called for closer alignment between the bill and the WCCSA on the establishment, code of conduct and accreditation of NHWs. “In fact, a code of conduct has been issued by the Department of Community Safety to govern the operations of accredited NHWs. The provisions in the WCCSA are much more comprehensive than that contained in the proposed section 6A of the bill, which again supports the idea that the bill should build on current provisions of the WCCSA.” Going forward, the submission on the bill will be reviewed by provincial legal services who will collate all inputs from all departments and will submit a final document for Fritz’s signature to be sent to the minister of police.

Have your say on traffic act SAMANTHA LEE-JACOBS @Samantha_lee121 National government has released draft legislation which could soon prohibit motorists from consuming any liquor before getting behind the wheel. In a series of tweets and statements released by transport minister Fikile Mbalula, he said the aim of the new legislation is to decrease the legal breath-alcohol limit from less than 0.05 grams per 100 millilitres via blood sample or 0.24 mF per 1 000 mF via breathalyzer to 0.00 grams for any motorist. This means that should you consume any liquor, you could be arrested if stopped in a roadblock. These amendments will be made to the National Road Traffic Act. The proposal was accepted by parliament earlier this year. Thus far, more than 6 500 people have had their say on the bill through the non-profit site dearsouthafrica.co.za, with public participation closing on Friday 20 November. At this stage, there are mixed emotions on the proposed changes. Some of the participants have referred to
the proposal as “laughable” and “unnecessary”. People’s Post polled readers on social media and in the streets to get their take on the proposal. Wesley Fourie says he will not be commenting on the bill. “They have already made up their mind. I am not going to waste time commenting because I don’t feel it will change their minds,” he says. “What is more concerning is that they believe a bill will stop people from drinking and driving.” Many others agree with Fourie, adding that not enough is done to promote public participation. But for others on the opposing side, the proposed legislation will add an additional line of defence. “Drunk drivers get off so easily most times. They sit for a few days, then they are out on bail,” says Pauline Samuels. “But the lives they take can never be replaced.” Mbalula has been warning residents that this could be adopted as early as December this year.

n online book aimed at educating children about the coronavirus and how to stay safe under the current pandemic restrictions and protocols has been downloaded more than 5 000 times. Created as part of the successful Oaky range, developed by Cape Town-based, nongovernmental organisation (NGO) Read to Rise co-directors Taryn Locke and her husband Athol Williams, Oaky and the Virus is a free-to-download online book that explains how life has had to change now that “a dangerous new virus has come to town”. Through the adventures of its two characters, Oaky and Oaket, children learn the importance of social distancing, covering your face and thorough hand washing. The book also comes with a catchy instructional song, which has become quite popular with more than 5 300 views on YouTube. “A number of parents have posted videos of their children singing the Oaky Virus song from the book, which they sing while washing their hands. Parents say that the book is simple for children with cute illustrations and it helps them to read and understand how they can avoid the virus,” says Locke. “I love working with children, they are our future. It is so important that we do all that we can for our children now so that our country’s future is brighter. To ensure that more South African children can read the story and learn from it, the book is also available in multiple languages.” Roscoe Williams, Read to Rise project manager, says the book has already been translated into eight languages.
“Both the book and song have been shared widely in school, early childhood development (ECD) and community groups via WhatsApp and email and have been used as homework reading assignments and even a puppet show. Over 50 000 children have benefited,” says Roscoe. “As it is an unknown pandemic that we are dealing with, our book and class visits have helped learners to understand what a virus is and how they can avoid it. During the lockdown period, we really needed to think outside of the box. We made some adjustments to our programme and came up with an Oaky care pack. It costs R100 to sponsor a child. The care pack consist of the Oaky and the Virus book, Oaky and the Virus activity book, face mask, juice, snack and hand soap,” says Roscoe. The book has also been made available in hardcopy as part of a seven-book range. The organisation focuses on reading and literacy development in primary schools, donating free books to schools in underprivileged areas. “Our main focus is 45 primary schools in Mitchell’s Plain and 30 primary schools in Soweto. Over the past seven years, working in these areas, we have given out over 200 000 brand new books and (more than) 95 000 children have benefited,” says Roscoe. The books are written and illustrated by Locke and Athol, the latter of whom is a renowned poet originally from Mitchell’s Plain. To purchase a hardcopy book at R100, visit Read to Rise’s website. The full set of seven books retail at R600. Proceeds help fund the NGO’s literacy outreach initiatives. V Download Oaky and the Virus for free from www.readtorise.co.za or from its Facebook page.
More than 80% of the City of Cape Town’s libraries have opened their doors for browsing as part of a phased-in approach to further roll out the service offering. According to the City, 87 of the facilities now allow walk-ins and browsing after a week-long “dry run” to ensure all operational directives are in place. In addition, limited two-hour study sessions, as well as access to the internet via the SmartCape system, is provided on a firstcome, first-served basis at a number of the public libraries. Zahid Badroodien, the Mayco member for community services and health, said it was good news to see the service come to life once more. “Let’s keep the doors open by ensuring that everyone adheres to the rules of social distancing, regular hand-washing and the wearing of masks. Keeping our library environment safe is a shared responsibility,” said Badroodien. Staff at libraries will follow and enforce strict Covid-19 protocols. However, it will remain the responsibility of every visitor to ensure their personal safety. Patrons are reminded to not visit the library if they exhibit any of the known symptoms of Covid-19, or feel unwell. Any person entering a library will be screened, and should they fail the screening test, they will not be allowed inside.

Blood service issues a call to arms RACINE EDWARDES @RaeEdwardes
“D
onating blood encourages you to live a responsible lifestyle,” says Ron Johnson, a blood donor who regularly makes a trip down to the Western Cape Blood Service (WCBS) at Blue Route Mall to do his part to save lives. Johnson, who has been a regular donor for about two years, says it makes him feel good and costs him nothing to save up to three lives each time he donates. While regular donors are integral to the WCBS’s blood collection efforts, the organisation still needs to increase its active donor-base each year by 3% – more than 2 200 people annually – in order to keep a sufficient blood supply. Currently, Marike Gevers, public relations manager at WCBS, says there is a critical shortage in A+, B+ and O- blood supplies, which means they only have a three-day blood supply. For this reason, the blood service has launched a Call to Arms campaign, aimed at recruiting new donors. “We encourage all blood donors to unite, take arms (figurative-
ly speaking) and challenge their family and friends to join them by donating blood and saving up to three lives with one donation,” says Gevers in a statement. Blood donor Gaby Jakes says the process is simple with minimal pain. “I know lots of people don’t like needles but it’s really not as painful as some people think. The staff are always professional and they know what they’re doing. Sometimes you don’t even feel the needle, and when it’s in you just need to sit there,” she says. Jakes also offers advice for donating. “I find that if I’ve been active in the day – and you must eat a good meal about an hour before you donate – that my blood flow is really good and I can complete a donation in about five or six minutes.” Requirements to donate include: . Being between the ages of 16 and 75; . weighing 50kg or more; . being in good health on the day of donation; and . leading a safe sexual lifestyle. Donors are also required to complete a lifestyle form before donating and take a blood pressure and iron test. As part of the campaign, the WCBS is en-
couraging donors to take a selfie while donating blood and share it on social media and tag @TheWCBS, then challenge friends and family to do the same by tagging them too. “As a small token of appreciation, each existing blood donor who brings a success-
ful new blood donor to a blood donation clinic during November, will receive a limitededition Blood Buddy keyring,” read a WCBS statement. V To find your closest blood donation clinic, download the WCBS app on Android and iOS or send a WhatsApp to 060 549 7244 for more information.

Donate to festive bucket drive SAMANTHA LEE-JACOBS @Samantha_lee121
T
he Cape Town Association for the Physically Disabled is calling on residents to assist in their annual donation drive, The Buckets of Hope. With the devastating effects of the pandemic on many households, the non-profit organisation would like to further extend its drive to accommodate 200 clients this year. “(the organisation) seeks to promote and provide social development services to enhance the quality of life for persons with
physical disabilities in the Cape metropole. Our services pay particular attention to people living in poorer communities,” says Fatima Martin, a social auxiliary worker for the organisation. Buckets of Hope was initiated in 2009 to help the needy. “Many of our clients are ultra poor, who year after year must go through the festive season without any decent food on the table or any reason to feel cheerful and happy. “We therefore came up with the idea to fill buckets with non/perishable food items and then let our field social workers go out and distribute it to their clients that is the most needy.

Help keep the ball rolling KAYLYNNE BANTOM @bantomkaylynne
A
Factreton couple believe that keeping children occupied with sports teaches them discipline and encourages them to stay out of trouble. Lynn and Hilton Williams, who have lived in the area for several years, started the Dapper United Football Club seven years ago to provide an alternative for youngsters. The pair, both unemployed, saw the desperate need for children in the area to be kept entertained, especially over the weekend, when many of them are aimlessly wandering the streets. Hilton says: “I used to play soccer many years ago. Both my wife and I have a passion for kids and we decided to do something positive for our community. We want them to understand that through sport, you can go forward in life.” He says their aim is to provide a fun, safe, quality soccer experience for all youth. And to promote excellence in sportsmanship and conduct in all players, coaches, referees and parents. Hilton explains they started off with only a handful of children but says now they have more than 30 boys and young men made up of teams which range between the ages of nine and 30. According to Hilton this number is growing rapidly as more boys are showing interest and joining daily. He says practice takes place from Monday to Thursday between 05:00 to 06:30. “As the coach, I teach them how to perform on the field, how to play ball and how to be
a team player. We need a lot of patience with the younger ones who just want to kick the ball around,” says Hilton. He says they also encourage the group to remain focused on their academics and says his home is often a hub where the children come to if they need help with schoolwork. According to Hilton, Sundays are set aside for match days where the different teams get to play against other opponents. Lynn says she is the disciplinarian. “We love what we do and it brings us joy seeing the excitement on their faces. I often reprimand them and tell them that they need to behave.” Lynn also calls on local government to fix the soccer field in Dapper Road which she
says is in poor condition. “We now have to walk all the way to 14th Avenue to play and practice on that field.” According to Lynn their biggest challenge is that many of the children come from disadvantaged backgrounds and cannot afford basic soccer gear like vests and soccer boots. “We are always looking for donations – things like soccer boots and socks, water bottles, soccer balls, shin guards,” explains Lynn. She encourages community members to get involved and says they do not want any money but rather soccer equipment which they can use. V Anyone who wishes to make a donation can email Hilton at hiltonstanleywilliams@gmail.com

Two Oceans Aquarium celebrates 25 years.

Two Oceans Aquarium celebrates 25 years O
ne of Cape Town’s popular tourist attractions, the Two Oceans Aquarium, celebrated 25 years of existence on Friday 13 November. The aquarium has reportedly welcomed more than 10 million visitors since its inception in 1995. The aquarium is home to hundreds of aquatic animals and plants found along the Southern African coastline. It showcases the rich diversity of life, some of which is found nowhere else in the world. It also exposes some of the negative human impacts on the ocean, such as plastic pollution and overfishing. Michael Farquhar, chief executive officer of the aquarium, says the facility has grown into a “much-loved and well-respected” facility with conservation and education at its heart. He thanked the patrons for their support over the
25-year period. Farquhar says the aquarium’s vision of “abundant and healthy oceans”, and its mission “to inspire action for the future well-being of our oceans” along with a strong education and conservation focus, drive this organisation. In 2018 the aquarium established a Two Oceans Aquarium Education Foundation (NPO/PBO) to further facilitate and grow its education, conservation and research efforts. This work incorporates the already well-established and respected marine science education programmes; the turtle rehabilitation programme, and the marine wildlife management programme. The aquarium relies on income generated through footfall and other income streams such as functions and conferences. As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic the aquarium has seen a

massive decline in its visitor numbers and hopes this will change now that boarder restrictions have been lifted. Having joined the Heritage Environmental Rating Programme in 2007, the aquarium is currently a diamond member which is the highest ranking in the rating programme. Last year, the aquarium won the Gold Award for “Best Responsible Attraction” at the African Responsible Tourism Awards at WTM, and also walked away with a Silver Award in the “Best for Global Goals Reporting” category. Farquhar says whether it is through their exhibits, the aquarium Foundation, public talks or their informative website and social media networks, the aquarium will continue to strengthen its footing within Cape Town, South Africa and internationally.

Time, which notes the march from moment to moment and abstract expressions and relations which celebrates interconnectedness, relationships and communities. Koyo Kouoh, executive director and chief curator at the museum, says the exhibition amplifies their commitment to providing access for all. “Art is in the eye of the beholder could be the translation of Home Is Where The Art Is. With no hierarchy or selection, this is an opportunity for us to find out what art means to our audience and by the same token, attempting to find out what a museum could stand for in current times.” The art will be on show until Sunday 10 January next year.
More than 2 000 art pieces are on show.

It’s not everyday that artworks from professional and amateur artists, children, and collectors are on display under one roof. But that is exactly what the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (Mocaa) was hoping to change with their exhibition titled Home Is Where the Art Is: Art Is Where the Home Is. The exhibition marks the reopening of the museum after a seven-month closure due to the nationwide lockdown. It showcases around 2 000 artworks. After an online entry period, the exhibition saw thousands of city residents make their way to drop-off points across the Peninsula to submit their entries. The artwork submissions revealed five themes into which the exhibition has been arranged: The Garden which explores the life of plants, growth,

Return to training W
estern Province Club Rugby circles are engaging on various methods of return to training, which has been set provisionally for the new year. “This week saw us meet with our various leagues again to discuss the return to training options as per the Covid-19 regulations. This is not an easy process, but compliance and the health and safety of our members will always be our top priority,” says manager of WP Amateur Rugby Danny Jones. SA Rugby and government regulations require that each club must have a compliance officer, which has resulted in the union embarking on a Covid-19 awareness and education process, which includes the adoption of World Rugby’s free Covid-19 awareness course. The course carries a certification. “We understand that documentation is a major factor for return to training and as such we are constructing various online solutions which will help the clubs to get their
players back on the park in a safe manner. “With these elements in place, we should see our players training on the field in an isolated manner with masks and sanitisation protocols in place,” Jones says. Following the completion of the SA Rugby u.21 tournament last week, the junior format has now changed to u.20, which will see coach Jerome Paarwater commencing benchmark testing at the highperformance centre next week. “Players will receive programmes relating to strength and conditioning applicable to homebased preparation. “We are very happy to see that several of these players come from our club rugby ranks and have already gained some experience playing in the u.21 championships,” he says, adding that this week sees the start of World Rugby Fifteens level one coaching course at Newlands, with the next course on Friday 20 November.
“We are working hard on the rollout of our WP women’s rugby highperformance coaches development programme. “The programme will run for a three-year cycle aiming to capacitate female talent in rugby coaching from beginner school and club rugby coaches to elite school, club, junior and senior provincial coaches,” says Paarwater. He adds that schools and universities with women rugby teams and senior women’s rugby clubs were invited to nominate potential people to participate in the programme. “I remind our members that the health and safety of our members is our first priority, and in order for us to move forward with a continued approach to follow protocols, the education of our members is currently a priority, and that our members must not delay in undergoing the online World Rugby Covid awareness course.” V All applications should be sent to Nazeem Adams on nazeem@wprugby.co.za

Blue Friday for Rondebosch runners T
he third Friday 5K Pop Up will take place at Rondebosch Common on Friday 20 November. The colour of the day will be blue. Consisting of four bi-weekly 5km runs that will start and finish at a designated venue, each pop-up run is limited to 70 runners (per city), to adhere to government regulations, with the first 50 entries (per run and city) receiving a limited-edition Run Your City Series (RYCS) t-shirt. On Friday, runners will receive a funky blue t-shirt. Runners who complete all four runs stand a chance to win their share in spectacular sponsor prizes. “I’m not sure who is looking forward to the Friday 5K Pop Up Run number three the most; our event team or the RYCS community,” says Michael Meyer, managing di-
rector of Stillwater Sports, organisers of the event. “The Friday 5K Pop Up Run campaign has allowed us to interact with the running community while adhering to government regulations for the exercise, of course. The first two runs were extremely well supported. We look forward to continuing the trend at this coming Friday’s event. Remember this week’s colour theme is blue.” “We realise that the pop-up runs tend to reach capacity quickly, for that reason there is a virtual option for runners that could not sign up in time or that cannot make it to the designated venue on the day,” continues Meyer. “These runners can run anywhere, take photographs and share them to social media. They won’t
receive the RYCS t-shirt, but they will be eligible to win prizes.” Timing and Results: . Runners can track their run either with a sports watch, fitness tracker, their mobile phones or Strava. After completing the third Friday 5K Pop Up Run, runners must go to the RYCS social media platforms. There will be results in a link through which runners can manually upload their results. .
