BACK TO SCHOOL
Tears, smiles at schools THULANI MAGAZI
A
s the new academic year shifts forward, overcrowding at schools across the province remains one of the biggest challenges facing the Western Cape Education Department (WCED). More than 1 million learners returned to school with around 107 000 of these starting Grade 1. This is an increase from 104 336 learners in 2019. Starting high school, a projected 93 000 learners are joining Grade 8, a significant increase from 85 771 Grade 8s in 2019. Included in the total is also 69 400 Grade R learners. Debbie Schäfer, provincial education minister, says scores of learners are yet to be placed at schools. She was addressing the media on the first day of school (Wednesday 15 January) at St Mary’s Primary School, in the CBD. However, she was quick to point out that officials from her department are working hard to place all the learners. “We are doing absolutely everything we can to still place learners who haven’t been placed, but our class sizes are increasing because we are not able to afford to pay for extra teachers that we desperately need,” says Schäfer. She attributed the challenges to “predominantly budget or lack thereof”. Her sentiments were shared by school principal Fiona Sellar. She said there had been a steady increase in the number of learners per grade at St Mary’s. She said for the current academic year the school has a total of 302 learners, up from about 270 in 2019. “We had a good influx of learners. Our classes are now at 40 to one, whereas some of them use to be 35 to one,” said Sellar. “Even our Grade R class is bigger this year than normal.” As for the learners, it was a day filled with mixed emotions. While others celebrated the first day of school, it was a day to forget for some. They struggled to adjust to their new surroundings. Lavuya Rayi (5), a Grade R learner from Nyanga, found the new environment unbearable. “Mommy, mommy, mommy,” he

cried frantically, and continued crying long after his parents had left. But for some of his peers, it was a day to remember as they continued with classes without fear. Parent Thandazile Wopula from Mitchell’s Plain said she decided to enrol her two kids, one in Grade R and another in Grade 2, at the school after receiving a “good recommendation”. “We are just very happy with the school,” said Wopula. “We also wanted our kids to be together. It is now going to be very easy for me because I also work here in town.

Author talks about new book International journalist turned author Elaine Durbach will launch her new book Roundabout at the Jacob Gitlin Library in Gardens on Tuesday 11 February at 18:00. Entry is free. Durbach is an award-winning journalist who was born in Zimbabwe, and grew up in Zambia, Lesotho, and South Africa. A World Press Institute Fellowship took her to the United States of America (USA), where she has lived and worked as an international correspondent and journalist for many years. Her work has included writing for the New Jersey Jewish News. Roundabout is her debut novel. The book is a love story about a couple who meet at Rhodes, cross paths in the USA, and settle – almost too late – in Kalk Bay. The novel has been described as “beautiful, evocative and captivating”. She will be talking about the intersection of fact and fiction, and her perspective on living and working in the “fake news” era. To RSVP, email admin@gitlinlibrary.co.za or call 021 462 5088.

There has been a steady growth in the occurrence of backyard dwellings on publically- and privately-owned land over the last decade due to increased urbanisation across South Africa. But due to the fact that almost 70% of informal backyarders in the metro they are not formally registered on the City of Cape Town’s database, they are not eligible for a housing opportunities such subsidised housing, The City encourages backyard dwellers to register on the database. ‘The great need for affordable housing and services in and near urban centres especially means that we must ensure that we work in a planned, systematic and fair manner. It is really important for backyard dwellers to apply to register on the housing database. Backyarders who are not registered on the database cannot be considered for housing opportunities created for them by the City and Western Cape government. All qualifying beneficiaries and especially backyard dwellers must therefore please ensure that they are registered on the database and that their details are correct and up to date,” says Mayco member for human settlements, Malusi Booi. “We also continue to focus on enhanced service delivery especially to backyarders residing on council-owned properties. Cape Town was the first city in South Africa to introduce basic services to backyarders residing on council-owned properties.” The backyarder programme started in 2014 and entails the provision of one-toone water, refuse and electricity services to backyarders residing on council-owned property, such as rental units. “The Municipal Finance Management Act deter-
mines that public money may not be used for enhancing private properties. Therefore, much work still needs to be done to see how backyarder services will be rolled out to those residing on private properties within the framework of the law,” says Booi. Urbanisation is not a municipal challenge alone, he adds. “All tiers of government, the private sector and civic organisations, must work together and ensure that we are ahead of the curve with our plans to address rapid urbanisation. We must bring our communities on board with the alternatives on offer.” Beneficiaries who qualify for government housing should also not pay anyone to be placed on the housing database nor should they pay money to receive their state-subsidised property. All costs are carried by government. Qualifying beneficiaries who pay to ‘register’ on the database or pay money for their subsidised house or serviced site are being scammed. Applicants can register: . on the housing database online . at your nearest City housing office . at the MyEstate mobile office when it comes to your area . at Parow Walk-in Centre or Wale Street Walk-in Centre Applicants will need to submit: . a certified copy of your ID and spouse’s ID, if applicable . a completed housing assistance form . certified copies of your children’s birth certificates, if applicable . certified copies of marriage or divorce certificates if applicable . details of special needs within the household if applicable, and supporting documents such as medical records . proof of address.

Strap to help in times of need RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj
A
Richwood resident and graphic designer, Olivia Viglatzis, has launched a new customised emergency strap to help during a time of need. The strap folds around seat belts, a baby seat and backpack strap, and has details of the driver, baby or school going child – these include the name and surname of the individual, an emergency contact and medical aid details. “All of this came to mind one evening when I was driving to the shop and thought to myself, ‘what would happen if I was to be in an accident?’ “How would the emergency services know who to contact? “And so it all started,” Viglatzis explains. They also decided to make the strap available for school backpacks. “School children get injured and no one knows who to contact,” Viglatzis adds. According to her, the idea started small and they hope they can someday grow it into a business. “We started in November and we have only done things via Facebook so far, so we are really still small.” The business has gained some momentum through word of mouth. Viglatzis hopes to approach medical aid companies to get involved. “We will be marketing it ourselves for now as each of the emergency straps are individually made for that particular person’s needs.” The straps can be ordered and mailed to anywhere in the country. V For more information, email info@mysafetycomesfirst.co.za.
The emergency strap also folds around the strap of a backpack.

Visit City’s mobile office T
he City of Cape Town’s Mobile office will visit Macassar, Kensington, Firgrove and Sarepta this week.

The office will be stationed outside the Kensington civic centre in Sunderland Street today (Tuesday 21 January) from 09:30 to 13:30.
The City’s customer service team will assist residents with logging queries and service requests electronically. To date, the mobile office team has been very effective in resolving long outstanding queries for residents. This way the City is bringing its services to residents, and affording them the opportunity to enquire and to solve issues without having to spend time and money on transport. The City encourages all residents to take advantage of this opportunity and visit the mobile office.

Bible for the Deaf opens new world NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk
F
or many the words in the Bible are self-explanatory. Verses like “whoever has ears, let them hear” or “if you declare with your mouth...you will be saved” are so commonplace, many don’t think twice when reading it. For a deaf person this is a completely different experience, says Dr Rocco Hough, who helped put together the English Bible for the Deaf (EBD), which the Bible Society of South Africa released at the end of last year. Hough, who was a reverend at the De la Bat Dutch Reformed Church for the deaf in Bellville for over 30 years, was directly involved with both translations, along with El-
The English Bible for the Deaf.
mien Roux, a retired teacher who used to work at the De la Bat School for the deaf in Worcester. Helping them were scores of academics and deaf people, making this a translation developed with the deaf, for the deaf. The EBD follows the runaway success of The Afrikaans Bible for the Deaf of 2008 (now also known as the Bible for All), the first Afrikaans Bible for the deaf. The EBD is aimed at people who were born deaf and could not learn a language in an auditory way.
Necessity Hough says he was challenged to do the English translation of the Bible for the Deaf while in Kenya about 11 years ago. A pastor there said they were struggling to understand the English Bible for the Deaf they were using at the time. When he looked at the Bible himself, he saw about 50 words in the first chapter of the Bible that the average deaf person wouldn’t understand. There was a great need for a text based Bible for the deaf in English, Hough realised. And as he knew only too well from translating the Afrikaans Bible for the Deaf, most of the existing Bible is too difficult for a deaf person to understand. “The mother tongue of the deaf is Sign Language, a very difficult language for hearing people to learn, and likewise, difficult for deaf people to understand written language as we find it in our Bibles.” A hearing impairment normally leads to a language impairment. “Deaf children cannot learn language in a normal way, and in the past deaf children were sent to a school for the deaf at the age of 3 where they had to learn language in a specialised way.”
Dr Rocco Hough and his wife Jean. Hough says Jean has been a big help in the process of putting together a more readable Bible for the deaf. Even though they have normal intelligence, the average reading ability of an adult deaf person is that of an eight-year-old-hearing child. This creates a large barrier when trying to read something like the Bible. Added to this is the fact that the Bible is filled with idioms, which is something that is acquired by speaking a language over time and not something deaf people learn automatically.
Translation The translation of EBD officially started in 2011 and the text was completed after about five years. “After (this) it was tested, the development of all the footnotes and illustrations, the page layout, and then it was printed in China, who has the largest and most modern Bible printing press.”

Two source experts Prof Bart Oberholzer and Prof Hermie van Zyl, helped with this translation. After Oberholzer’s death, Dr Tiana Bosman took over. Hough says this Bible is ideal for groups of people wanting to read an easy translation, like Christians in countries like Pakistan and India. “There is such a big need for a Bible like this and I’m grateful we could finish it,” Hough says. Hannerie Swart, development manager at the National Institute for the Deaf (NID), says it’s special that the deaf can receive the word of God in a way that’s easily understandable. “It supports deaf accessibility and inclusivity.” The Bible is available at Cum Books or at the Bible Society of South Africa.

Magic fanatics are invited to attend the beginner’s Course One at the College’s Victorian manor at 215 Imam Haron Road in Claremont every Saturday. Course One explores the world of magic through a 15-week diploma course which includes rope magic, card tricks and coin effects as well as an introduction to the allied arts, namely juggling, mime, clowning and puppetry. The College of Magic first welcomed students on 23 February 1980. This year marks 40 years of teaching the art of magic and its allied arts, as well as life-skills to children and adults. Graduates of the institution include comedians Riaad Moosa, Stuart Taylor and Conrad Koch, actor Francis Chouler and film director Jenna Cato Bass, as well as South Afri-
can Magic Champion Olwethu Dyantyi. Founder and director David Gore is excited to welcome the next generation of magical students. “We are thrilled to kick-start our milestone year by introducing these youngsters to the world of magic and showmanship. We’ve seen first-hand the positive changes that learning the art of magic has had on thousands of students. “The improvement of their confidence levels and social skills is amazing to see, and we cannot wait to share this with our 2020 aspiring magicians.” The entry-level Course One is suitable for learners aged 10 to 13 years old. It will run each Saturday for six months from Saturday 1 February with classes at 09:00 and at 12:00. Fees to attend the magic school is R3 200 per learner.

Vics add to Strandfontein’s misery GOOSAIN ABRAHAMS

ewcomers to Western Province Cricket Association’s Premier League, Strandfontein came agonisingly close to recording their first victory of the season when they lost by 11 runs to Victoria Cricket Club on Saturday 18 January. Chasing 173 for victory, the Seasiders were always on the hunt, but lost wickets at crucial times, with Vics off-spinner Robert van der Ross (4/38) doing most of the damage for his team. In the first division A, Primrose, making a strong bid for promotion, posted the highest score of the day (280/8) as they cruised to a bonus-point 121-run win over Tygerberg. For the Roses, Magmoed Petersen (92) was their stand-out performer. In the first division B, Bashier Vallie (61*) piloted log leaders Pinelands to an easy sixwicket win over Bishop Lavis.

Yankees trip up Falcons in clash NOORE NACERODIEN Westridge Yankees beat their arch-rivals 6-2 in their Cape Town Softball Association Super League fixture on Saturday 18 January. The win for Yankees gives Lavender Hill the opportunity to extend their already commanding lead at the top of the Super League standings. Prior to the game, Falcons were two points ahead of Westridge, but Saturday’s result ensured that the Mitchell’s Plainbased outfit overtook their rivals to take second spot in the standings. Natalie Abrahams performed admirably from the pitching mound for Westridge, putting the skids on Falcons’ batting. In the other Super League game, Tantasport would taste defeat at the hands of Glenthorn A’s, going down 7-2. They, along with Heideveld Yankees now languish at the bottom of the table, which puts them in danger of being relegated at the end of the season. Log-leaders Lavender Hill were enjoying a bye this weekend. Results: Super league:
