PAROW­TREINSTASIE: SATELLIET­POLISIEKANTOOR SAL STUDENTE EN ANDER PENDELAARS BESKERM

Brug nou veilig vir almal AVRIL FILLIES

S

tudente van die Northlink-kollege in Parow kan nou die treinbrug by die Parow-treinstasie veilig oorsteek nadat ’n satelliet-polisiekantoor op Maandag 13 November daar opgerig is.

“Ek is dankbaar om te kan sê dat die studente nou veiliger kan voel om die treinbrug te gebruik. Danksy die verskeie vergaderings tussen al die rolspelers die afgelope paar maande, is die satelliet-polisiekantoor nou ’n werklikheid,” het Francheska Walker, raadslid vir wyk 26, gesê.

Die ander rolspelers om die veiligheid van

die studente en ander pendelaars te verseker, is die wetstoepassingsdepartement, die Parow-buurtwag, die Parow- en Elsiesrivier-polisiekantore, Prasa, Metrorail en Northlink-kollege.

“Die studente het gekla dat hulle beroof word as hulle na en van die kollege oor die treinbrug na die treinstasie stap. Dié satelliet-polisiekantoor is nou ook tot die beskikking van alle ander pendelaars, want ons wil verseker dat almal veilig is,” het sy gesê.

Om die inwoners in Parowvallei en omgewing meer bewus te maak van veiligheid, is inligtingsessies in die gebied gehou.

“Gemeenskapsveiligheid is vir my baie

belangrik en vandag het ek dit baie duidelik aan die studente gestel wat hulle moet doen om veilig te wees. Ek het toe my baadjie as raadslid uitgetrek en gepraat soos ’n bekommerde ouer of buurvrou,” het Walker gesê.

“Hulle kla oor hulle beroof word, maar loop met oorfone of kyk vir SMS’e of WhatsApp-boodskappe op hul fone. Hulle is so besig met die tegnologie dat hulle nie kyk waar hulle loop of wat rondom hulle aangaan nie,” het sy gesê. Sy hoop die studente het haar raad ter harte geneem. Op ’n ernstiger noot het sy gesê dat sy alles in haar vermoë as raadslid sal doen om gemeenskappe te help en te probeer om hul probleme op te los.

“Wetstoepassing sal die satelliet-polisiekantoor in vennootskap met die Parowbuurtwag beman. Hulle sal orals sigbaar wees en verdagte voorvalle in en om Parowstasie aanmeld. Ek wil hulle alle sukses toewens met hul nuwe taak om die gemeenskap veilig te hou,” het Walker gesê.

Sy het ook gesê dat Wyatt Thornton, een van die dosente by die Northlink-kollege, skouer aan die wiel gesit het om die veldtog ’n sukses te maak. “Hy is ’n passievolle onderwyser en wil net die beste vir sy studente hê. Ons het ook die volle samewerking van kol. Falakhe Dyanti, die waarnemende stasiebevelvoerder van die Parow-polisie.”

Paxton is SA’s 2017 Idol!

P

axton Fielies, a 17-year-old resident of Bishop Lavis, has been crowned South Africa’s Season 13 Idol for 2017.

The learner from Belhar High School sang her way to the finale held at Carnival City on Sunday, snatching the title from fellow contestant Mthokozisi Ndaba (25).

In support of Paxton, the Western Cape Government, in conjunction with community-based organisation Bishop Lavis Action Community (BLAC), hosted a family fun day and live screening of the season finale. The event was attended by an estimated 10 000 people at the Bishop Lavis Sports Grounds, who cheered with gusto when Paxton was announced as the winner.

Joining the community and BLAC was local minister of social development, Albert Fritz, local minister of health, Dr Nomafrench Mbombo, along with local sports, arts and culture minister, Anroux Marais.

According to Sihle Ngobese, spokesperson for Albert Fritz, Paxton exemplifies the spirit of the Western Cape youth. “Through hard work and talent, she has made use of her opportunities to not only win Idols but to launch her singing career,” says Ngobese.

The Western Cape Government also congratulated Paxton.

Fritz expressed his pride in the way in which the community came out to support one of their own. “Special congratulations to the community of Bishop Lavis who came out in their numbers, not only to support and celebrate Paxton’s win, but more importantly to reclaim their public spaces from the gangsters and drug lords. As a government, youth development remains an integral part of our mandate,” he said.

Marais also expressed her pride in Paxton. “Paxton has undoubtedly made us immensely proud. Both Paxton’s win, and that of Craig Lucas in the 2017 The Voice competition, make it clear that resources need to continuously be directed toward helping artistic talent to flourish,” said Marais. “In celebrating and promoting the triumphs of our emerging artists, we can uplift our communities and allow residents, especially our younger generation, to dream of a better future.”

And the Idols SA Season 13 winner is ... Paxton!

When meeting eight-year-old Sayde Fillis from Kalkfontein, it is easy to assume that he is withdrawn and shy. However, when he sings, his crystal clear voice permeates the room and one quickly realises that this little boy not only loves to sing but is good at it.

Sayde, a learner at Irista Primary School, started singing at the age of four. “He started singing in church with the Sunday School where he was able to build on his confidence,” explains his father Andrew Fillis.

His confidence has placed him in good stead, as he has already performed for the public at Irista Primary’s carnival on Saturday 4 November. “It was wonderful watching him perform,” says Fillis.

Illegal firearms confiscated On Tuesday 7 November at about 16:30, the Blue Downs Cluster Crime Combatting Unit (CCU) were patrolling and conducting disruptive operations in Wesbank when they came across two men who started running in the opposite direction from the police.

One was chased down and found to be in the possession of a firearm and ammunition.

The 20-year-old was arrested and charged with possession of an illegal firearm and ammunition.

In an unrelated incident on Thursday 9 November at about 10:55, Mfuleni police were patrolling in Nuwebegin when

they were alerted by residents of a house where drugs were being sold.

Upon going to the house police found two men, one who was carrying a firearm.

When questioned about the firearm the man told police that it belongs to the other man in the house.

The men had no legal documentation for the firearm and both, a 24 and 25 year old, were arrested for possession of an illegal firearm and ammunition.

Police have appealed to the community to contribute to the fight against crime by anonymously reporting those who use firearms in the committing of crimes.

Parow suffers from water wastage woes AVRIL FILLIES

W

ater wastage in Frans Conradie Drive in Parow and the use of a hosepipe to wash 100 cars per month in the parking lot in front of Spar in Parow Valley has residents in these two areas hot under the collar.

A resident of Parow complained about a leakage of clear drinking water running down Frans Conradie Drive since 13 October. Despite various complaints lodged on the toll-free number of the City of Cape Town, nothing was done until now.

“The City has unfortunately been unable to trace the query as no reference number was submitted.

“Without a reference number it’s also difficult to trace to which water and sanitation work centre the query was sent for investigation,” said Xanthea Limberg, the City’s Mayco member for informal settlements, water and waste services and energy, in response to a query.

“In most instances pipe bursts are infrastructure related and we have a dedicated pipe replacement programme to address this.

“It must be noted that generally the City’s first-level response to a notification is two hours.

“If it is a very complicated water matter, such as that traffic would need to be impacted to fix a burst, the repairs could take longer.

“Our response is actioned according to priority, thus situations where the most water would be lost is where we work first,” Limberg said.

On a question if residents are liable for footing the water bill, she replied that the

residents are exempt from paying.

“Like in most burst or defective water pipe situations, unaccounted-for water would be for the City’s account. In some instances, private companies would be charged if their actions caused damage to infrastructure. Do note that due to our super efforts over the years to conserve water and to manage our resources with the utmost care, we have the lowest rate of water loss due to leaks and bursts of all the metros in South Africa.

“We’ve worked hard to bring down Cape Town’s water loss-to-leaks to 17.7%, while the national average is at 37%.

“During this crisis time, we assure residents that we will continue to do all that we can to improve on our performance. We can get through this drought together!” she said.

The use of a hosepipe at the car wash in the parking area in Parow Valley is a different kettle of fish, she said.

“This is against the current water restrictions. Fines and notices are applicable.

“The City urges residents to report such contraventions to water@capetown.gov.za with video or photographic evidence, as we may only fine someone in the act of the contravention.

Please see www.capetown.gov.za/thinkwater for more information,” Limberg said.

“The use of the hosepipe in Parow Valley has been noted and will be sent onto the Water Inspectorate Unit.

“We do however encourage that residents formally report all contraventions to the City with the relevant evidence to water@capetown.gov.za,” she said.

Mulder sê die gemeenskap kan nie meer tevrede wees met leë beloftes van optredes, strategieë en aksieplanne waarvan daar niks kom nie.

“Die adjunkminister van polisie het vroeg in September die hoeveelste ‘strategie’ aangekondig om bendegeweld op die Kaapse Vlakte hok te slaan, maar in hierdie stadium wil dit voorkom asof dit, net soos met al die vorige aankondigings, net leë beloftes is,” het hy gesê.

Abuse at home: there is hope for victims CARINA ROUX

W

e have a Domestic Violence Act in South Africa because this is a problem.

This is according to Warrant Officer Jacques Mostert of the Bothasig police who spoke at a recent public meeting. He explained the act and told those present how it can be used effectively.

Mostert reminded the audience that this issue is not limited to 16 days of the year (referring to the annual 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children which starts this Saturday, 25 November).

He added that men can also be on the receiving end of domestic violence.

Domestic violence can include physical or sexual abuse, emotional or verbal abuse, financial abuse, intimidation, harassment or stalking, damage to property or any other abusive or criminal behaviour.

The important factor to make it a contravention in terms of the law is that there is some relationship between parties, said Mostert. Domestic relationships include people who are or were married, who live or have lived together in a relationship, parents or people with parental responsibilities, family members, people who are or were in a romantic or sexual relationship, and people who share or have shared a home.

Mostert explained that people who are in need of help often do not lay charges because the perpetrator might threaten them with lifestyle changes. “They might say, ‘remember that if you lay charges the children will have to go to a different school or we will not be able to go on holiday anymore’.

“So now the abused person starts taking stock. They might think, ‘okay, he hits me

Domestic violence – there is a way out.

only once a month and after that there’s the ‘honeymoon phase’ where he smothers me with gifts because he feels sorry’. So people take it because of financial dependence and for the ‘sake of their children’.”

This can be circumvented, said Mostert.

Victims of domestic violence can apply for a protection order against the other party.

This can be done at the Domestic Violence Court at the magistrate’s court closest to where the complainant works or lives or where the respondent (abuser) works or lives. The officer of the Domestic Violence Court will ask for an affidavit (a statement under oath). When giving an affidavit, one must be specific, because the magistrate will use what is reported in the affidavit to stipulate which actions the perpetrator must refrain from doing. This document (interim protection order) will come to the closest police station and the police will then serve it on the perpetrator.

There will be a court date on this document and it is very important that the applicant be in court otherwise the court will not take it seriously, said Mostert.

“The respondent can go if they want to, but what would probably happen if they are not there is that a protection order will be issued.” No attendance constitutes contempt of court. At this stage the magistrate can add or remove stipulations from the protection order before making it final. If the respondent has threatened to harm the complainant, an order will be made to confiscate any firearms they may own.

The court will issue a suspended warrant of arrest for the respondent and, should they breach the stipulations of the protection order, they could be arrested immediately. They will then face criminal charges.

Mostert said the “bad news” is that once a protection order has been issued, the only way to remove it is upon death or if the applicant requests that it be set aside.

The final decision will, however, be at the magistrate’s discretion. If it is not set aside and the perpetrator offends again even after 20 years, the victim can still enforce the protection order.

Mostert said there are some safe houses available for women who have suffered domestic violence.

he Western Cape Education Department (WCED) is joining the fight to save water, after the success of the Bridgiot digital water metering system in reducing water consumption at Hector Peterson High School in Wallacedene.

“We are pleased to announce that we plan to expand the number of schools receiving the digital water metering system from 100 to 270, if the Shoprite/Cape Talk challenge is successful,” says Jessica Shelver, spokesperson for the Western Cape minister of education.

TygerBurger recently reported on the success of Bridgiot’s Count Dropula water meter at Hector Peterson (“Device makes every drop ‘count’,” 15/11).

Shelver says they have put in place an agreement with Bridgiot and Shoprite to drive a campaign to encourage the private sector and any other donors to contribute to the installation of the meters on a 60/40 basis. She says the terms of the agreement state that the WCED will provide funds to schools to cover 40% of the installation and operating costs, if the donors contribute 60% towards the costs.

“Shoprite has already taken the lead by announcing that they will cover installations at 100 schools in the Western Cape.

We thank them for their generous contribution.”

Shelver says they also want to thank the team at Cape Talk for their support of this challenge.

“We now aim to target a further 170

schools, bringing the total to 270 schools.

We are therefore calling for more pledges from other businesses to help save water at our schools.”

An additional 100 water metres have been pledged thus far, with the parties agreeing to work together to ensure significant water saving in local communities by reducing water usage at schools, she adds.

“The plan is to install the system at 270 schools in the greater Cape Town area within four months. The longer term goal is to install smart metering at all schools in the Western Cape to save every possible drop of water.”

Shafer says they plan to install the systems as soon as possible, before the December holidays, because the system has shown that detecting leaks early can save considerable amounts of water.

Bridgiot will be responsible for providing meters and a water consumption management service to participating schools. “They will work with the schools to deal with problems, as they have done at Hector Peterson High School.”

So far this system has helped the school to cut water consumption from 47 000 litres per day to 9000 litres, a daily saving of 38 000 litres. Other schools have also reported large savings.

The 270 schools could save up to 10 million litres a day, if they achieve the kinds of savings achieved thus far by Hector Peterson.

Dangerous new drug hits the streets CARINA ROUX

said two of the men fell into a coma and the other man’s heart stopped, but “he was brought back to life”.

Pillay said it was confirmed that the drug involved was flakka, and it took more than 48 hours before the men could relate what was happening to them and five days to get the drug out of their systems.

The National Institute for Drug Abuse (Nida) in the US describes flakka as a dangerous synthetic cathinone drug called alpha-PVP. It is similar to another synthetic cathinone drug called “bath salts” which was banned in 2012. It comes in the Flakka form of a white or pink crystal that can be eaten, snorted, injected or vapourised.

According to Nida, vaporising, which sends the drug rapidly into the bloodstream, may make it easy to overdose. The drug can cause “excited delirium” involving hyper-

A

t a recent crime awareness day in Richwood, Lieutenant Colonel Patrick Jacobs, the station commander of Bothasig police, touched on the “zombie drug” flakka, which recently surfaced in South Africa for the first time.

This synthetic drug, which has been reported to be ten times more powerful than cocaine, is a huge problem in America. The devastating effects it can have, as seen in video footage shown by Jacobs, had the audience in shock. In one scene a man runs across a highway before diving head-first into the windscreen of a car.

A Nigerian drug dealer was arrested earlier this month after three men suffered adverse effects when their drinks were allegedly spiked with flakka in a pub in Pinetown in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN).

In a television interview, Sam Pillay, the director of the Anti-Drug Forum in KZN,

stimulation, paranoia and hallucinations that can lead to violent aggression and selfinjury.

According to Karen Griesel, a social worker at a substance abuse treatment centre in Gauteng, the substance is packaged incon-

spicuously in plastic bags or vials labelled “not for human consumption”.

“You can buy it online or off the street.”

Griesel says it has become popular because it simulates the effects of cocaine and methamphetamines (other so-called “uppers”) and it’s cheaper.

Initially it gives the user a sense of euphoria, but continued use leads to delirium. Hallucinations, paranoia and “super human” strength have also been reported. Overdose can lead to psychosis, panic attacks, violence and death by suicide or heart attack. Flakka raises the body temperature and blood pressure, which can lead to kidney and heart failure.

Symptoms of use include extreme agitation, jerking muscle movements, delirious thoughts and paranoia.

Local police have not confirmed any cases of the drug in the Western Cape to date.

New firefighters join the fold A

group of 33 learner firefighters were awarded their badges and ranks during a graduation ceremony last week, ahead of their deployment to various fire stations. This comes just in time for the busy summer season.

The group, comprising 30 male and three female learner firefighters, graduated from the Epping Training Academy on Thursday 16 November.

They were awarded their badges and ranks by Ian Schnetler, the chief fire officer – the final step in a near year-long journey that included a gruelling physical assessment, interviews, and an eight-month training course covering a number of modules such as firefighter 1, hazardous materials awareness, and level-3 first aid.

The top students in the two trainee groups were Marcel Adriaanse (27) from Parow and Esther Nieman (33) from Welgemoed, while Wade Mohamed (27) from Zeekoevlei and Luthando Mgqamakhwe (27) from Kraaifontein were acknowledged as the most improved students in their respective groups.

JP Smith, the City’s Mayco member for safety and security and social services, said, “This is a very proud day for the graduates and their families, because firefighting is a calling that requires grit, determination and character. Many have tried to make the grade, but it’s not a career that everyone is cut out for. So I applaud the graduates for this achievement. The City is proud to welcome them into the fold and I am sure that they will be ambassadors to their employer in service to our residents.”

The graduates were deployed to various fire stations around the city. “Odds are that the recruits will quite literally face a baptism of fire, as experience shows that there is a massive increase in the number of vegetation fires over the warmer months. I have no doubt that their time at the training academy has prepared them for this,” said Smith.

Vroue vra of hul huwelike wettig is SALETTE CLOETE

I

s hulle huwelik wettig?

Dít is wat twee vroue van Scottsville in Kraaifontein wil weet ná hulle deel was van ’n massatroue op 21 Oktober.

René Solomons en Mina Korner sê hulle is heel verward en wil net die waarheid weet oor die troues wat past. Tanelle Welff-Dixon waargeneem het.

Hulle wil ook weet hoekom daar gesê is die trouringe is deur ’n groot juwelierskettingwinkel (Sterns) geborg, as dit kostuumjuwele is.

Die bruide is vreeslik bederf en met limousines by hul huise opgetel en na die tent geneem waar hulle mooigemaak is vir die seremonie.

Dis dieselfde tent waarin Welff-Dixon vir amper twee weke in Oktober kerkdienste gehou het.

Past. Tanelle Welff­Dixon sê ná wat sy alles in haar lewe deurgemaak het, kan sy haar nie nog steur aan wat ander mense van haar dink en sê nie.

Daar is selfs ’n rooi mat vir hulle uitgerol en die bruide het almal tiaras gekry.

Volgens René is daar rokke en troupakke gekry vir hulle, maar sy en haar man het verkies om hul eie klere te kry.

“Ons het nie gehou van wat hulle daar gehad het nie, en het klere gaan leen.”

Mina sê sy het die ring wat sy gekry het, weggegee toe dit begin blou word. “My man het vir my ’n nuwe ring gekoop.”

Mina en René vertel hulle was die dag van die massatroue ses paartjies en moes almal in ’n ry staan – elk met sy eie pastoor.

Welff-Dixon het op die verhoog agter die preekstoel gestaan. “Die sewende paartjie is die volgende oggend omstreeks 01:00 getroud ná die man eers nie opgedaag het nie. Ons het gehoor sy ma wou dit nie toelaat nie.”

Alfonso Cupido en Melissa Claassen moes saam met René en Mina en drie ander paartjies trou.

Christine Cupido, Alfonso se ma, sê sy wou nie sy ID-afdruk gee toe die pastoor dit kom vra het nie. “Hoe kan die twee mense trou as hulle nie eens na mekaar kan kyk nie?” vra sy.

Welff-Dixon sê sy het nie Cupido se toestemming gaan vra dat haar seun mag trou nie; hy is mos ’n volwassene.

Ná die seremonie is die paartjies getrakteer op lekker kos by ’n plek in Joostenbergvlakte.

Hulle het agterna elk ’n A3-grootte-plakkaat met drie foto’s gekry, asook die huweliksregistrasievorm.

Welff-Dixon sê die paartjies moet self met die vorms hul huwelike gaan registreer om hul sertifikate te kry.

Die pastoor sê ook daar is spesifiek gesê die trouringe is kostuumjuwele.

“Dit was net vir die seremonie bedoel. Van die paartjies het hul eie ringe gehad, so ek kan nie verstaan hoekom hulle dit verkeerd geïnterpreteer het nie.”

“Dit is elke paartjie se eie verantwoordelikheid om na binnelandse sake te gaan om hul huweliksertifikate te kry. Die dokumen-

René Solomons met haar enigste troufoto’s. te is reeds ingedien, maar van die huwelike moet nog geregistreer word, maar dis net ’n kwessie van tyd. Die paartjies is reeds in kennis gestel,” sê sy.

Vir René en Mina was dit nuus, want hulle is aangesê om Donderdag 9 November weer by die veld waar die tent was, bymekaar te kom. “Sy (Welff-Dixon) het fools van ons gemaak,” meen die twee vroue.

Welff-Dixon sê sy is absoluut geskok deur die vrae en aantygings teen haar.

Sy vertel alles wat gedoen is, is uit hul harte gedoen en dat mense uit hul eie sakke opgedok het vir die juwele, klere, kos en partytjie. “Dis mos nou stank vir dank. Ons doen nie God se werk om onsself te verhef nie,” sê sy.

Die troufoto’s is volgens haar om te wys

wat hulle doen – net soos hulle oral waar hulle gaan foto’s neem om te wys wat reeds gedoen is. Sy sê sy is teleurgesteld dat haar eie mense haar kruisig en sy oorsee op die hande gedra word deur mense.

“Ek is vereer deur die burgemeester van die stad van Opelousas in Amerika. Ek het ’n sleutel van die stad gekry en ’n dag is na my vernoem. Dit maak seer om te weet dat my eie mense my naam swart smeer sonder om hulle van die feite te vergewis.

“Ek het molestering, sewe verkragtings, aborsie, selfmoord, haweloosheid, haat, jaloesie en ’n egskeiding oorleef.” Sy sê ná wat sy alles in haar lewe deurgemaak het, kan sy haar nie nog steur aan sulke praatjies nie.

A smile can brighten up any day

T

hree-year old Nigel* from Kraaifontein was one of 41 Western Cape children who underwent life-changing surgery in the Tygerberg Academic Hospital during Smile Week, which was held from 13 to 17 November. The surgery was sponsored by GDS Technologies.

The annual Smile Week helps children with treatable facial anomalies and gives them hope for a brighter future.

Nigel suffers from scaphocephaly – a type of cephalic disorder that occurs when there is a premature fusion of the sagittal suture that joins the two parietal bones of the skull. Scaphocephaly results in a skull deformity characterised by a bossing forehead and a long and narrow skull. Aside from the cosmetic irregularity, this deformity also puts pressure on the developing brain, which can lead to clinical symptoms such as chronic headaches.

To correct this and to alleviate the physical and emotional distress caused by his condition, surgeons reshaped Nigel’s skull in a procedure called a cranial vault remodelling.

Another child, 10-year-old Minintle* from Strand, underwent the first phase of her ear reconstructive surgery this week.

Ear reconstructive surgeries are among the most complex paediatric surgeries to perform. They are necessary to correct abnormalities of the ears as a result of congenital deformities. They are conducted in two phases: first the new ear is designed from the patient’s own rib cartilage, where it is placed in a skin pocket. Next, three months later, the ear is lifted to match the other ear.

“We are extremely happy to support so many children in this Smile Week. The effects of these surgeries are not only felt by the individual patients, but throughout

“What better Christmas present to give these children than the gift of a smile and the chance to feel accepted? This is something many of these young patients wish to have – to be free from ostracisation. We

are humbled to be a part of the process to assist the surgical teams involved, and we thank our generous donor, GDS Technologies, which has partnered with us for three years in changing South African children’s lives,” says Moira Gerszt, operations executive director at the Smile Foundation.

“GDS is excited to be working with the Smile Foundation on another Smile Week.

It is really the most fulfilling part of the year for GDS, especially with all of the negativity in our country at the moment. If we pull together and work for a single good, we can achieve so much more in our beautiful South Africa. GDS’s contribution is amplified by the commitment of the surgeons, the medical staff and the team at the Smile Foundation who make this a reality.

GDS is proud to be associated with such a noble cause and the Smile Foundation!” says Neeren Ramaharakh, CEO of GDS Technologies.

The Smile Foundation is a South African NGO that assists children with any type of facial or other conditions to receive reconstructive surgery within South Africa. The organisation helps children who suffer from treatable facial anomalies such as cleft lip and palate, burns, Moebius syndrome (facial paralysis) and other conditions. The foundation is based in eight academic hospitals around South Africa.

“We are investing in the medical teams we work with, through an academic skills programme, and we assist the hospitals by purchasing equipment for use by the departments of plastic and reconstructive surgery.

“The wish of our chief patron, the late honourable Nelson Mandela, was for us to assist as many children around South Africa as possible to alleviate the stigma attached to living with a facial condition,” says Ramaharakh.

Construction on R300 will only be completed in 2018 JAY­DEE CYSTER @jaydeecyster

Commuters travelling along the R300 in the direction of Kuils River will have to wait until the end of 2018 before they can expect an ease up of the irregular bumper to bumper traffic conditions.

Regional manager of the South African National Roads Agency (Sanral), Western Region, Kobus van der Walt confirms that there are currently two contracts in progress on the R300 and a third which will commence shortly.

One of the projects involve the resurfacing of the R300 between the N1 and N2. According to Van der Walt this work is largely being done at night and is specifically planned to take place during off-peak hours, 20:00 to 05:00 in an effort to minimise the impact on commuters.

However, some portions of the work are being undertaken during the day, most notably the pre-marking (marking out the positions of the road markings and lines dividing the road surface into lanes and shoulders) and the final road marking.

Van der Walt states that lane closures are required for this work and that the road marking work is taking place periodically.

“The work is not undertaken on a daily basis and the contract is expected to be completed towards the middle of 2018,” says Van der Walt.

With regard to the second contract, the overpass bridge over the R300 is currently being widened to become the new Cilmore Road bridge (between Bottelary Road and the Old Paarl Road). “This work is being undertaken by private developers (VDMV/ Redefine Properties) as part of the commercial development in the adjacent areas. In order to widen the bridge it is necessary to undertake work within the R300 road reserve,”

says Van der Walt.

He confirms that the work is mostly foundation work as well as the constructing of the piers to support the bridge deck.

“In order for the contractor to work in the median and close to the outer shoulders it is required to narrow the road width in order to put concrete barriers in place to provide protection to the workers and the temporary works which is achieved by closing the fast lanes,” he explains.

He says the closing of lanes start quite a distance before the work site in an effort to ensure that the traffic converges well in advance of the work site to allow for free flowing traffic.

“The lane closures are in place 24 hours per day but the construction work itself takes place within normal working hours.

It is expected that the substructure work will be completed by 15 December which would allow for the opening of the R300 to full width traffic,” says Van der Walt. This contract is expected to be completed towards the middle of 2018.

Van der Walt confirms that a third contract is set to commence shortly at the R300/ Strand Road interchange. “This contract is implemented by the City of Cape Town and comprises the widening of the R300 off-ramp in the northbound direction and the provision of an additional lane on Strand Road between the R300 and College Road,” explains Van der Walt.

This project is expected to be completed towards the end of 2018.

Van der Walt asks that commuters bear with Sanral and the City as they make the necessary changes to the R300.

“Sanral apologises for the inconvenience caused to road users during construction,” he says.

Shéri se boek sal almal inspireer AVRIL FILLIES

H

aar boek, Shéri - nes ek is, gaan nie net oor Downsindroom nie, maar oor ’n pad van leer en verander en hard werk om iets te bereik.

Dít is hoe Sheri Brynard (35) tydens haar boekbekendstelling by die Alta du Toit-nasorgsentrum in Boston gesê het.

Sy is die enigste persoon ter wêreld met Downsindroom wat ’n onderwysdiploma in kleutersorg het, en geen aanpassings is tydens haar opleiding vir haar gemaak nie “Die boek gaan ook nie daaroor om nie vir jouself jammer te kry nie. Dit gaan daaroor dat mens nooit moed moet opgee nie. Dit gaan oor drome wat elkeen moet hê, al moet jy harder as ander werk en meer bid om die drome waar te maak,” het sy gesê.

“Ek woon my lewe lank in Bloemfontein en wonderlike dinge het al met my gebeur sedert ek die internasionale ambassadeur vir alle mense met Downsindroom geword het. Eintlik is ek net ’n doodgewone mens met ’n ekstra chromosoom en dit maak my bietjie stadiger. Dis al wat ek ken en eintlik is ek heeltemal oukei om ek te wees.

“Ek kla net soms wanneer my ma so vinnig loop dat dit lyk asof sy vir my wegloop.

“Ek kan ook nie lank staan nie, sukkel met skoene en is maar lomp. Die instrukteurs by die gimnasium probeer my hiermee help.

“Eintlik vat ek langer met alles wat ek doen, maar ons almal het mos maar dinge wat ons anders wil hê in ons lewens,” het sy gesê.

Dit is vir haar nog ongelooflik om haar eie boek in boekwinkels uitgestal te sien.

“Wanneer mense my boek koop, voel dit net so onwerklik en kan ek dit nie glo nie.

“In In my boek wou ek ook aan mense verdui verdui-

Shéri Brynard teken hier een van haar boeke.

delik hoe my pad geloop het, omdat die Here my baie seën. Ek wou my eie storie vertel, want mense praat so maklik vir ander en ek wou oor myself skryf,” het Shéri gesê.

Sy word gereeld gevra waaroor die boek gaan en wat sy nou eintlik daarmee wil bereik.

“Ek verduidelik dit graag sodat mense kan verstaan. Dis nie ’n boek net vir mense met Downsindroom nie. Dis ’n boek wat handel oor die lewe binne ’n dop van andersheid.

“Dis ’n boek van vasbyt, harde werk en die verwerking van die uitdagings van ’n lewe waar mens nie regtig inpas nie – tot die aanvaarding en beste maak van jou omstandighede.

“Dis ’n positiewe boek, sonder issues en hangups. Dis ’n boek van verlies en soms seer, maar met die sterk boodskap van hoop, indien jy regtig die Here se genade en liefde in jou lewe toelaat. Met die boek omarm ons andersheid en probeer hoop gee vir ander wat gemarginaliseer voel,” het sy gesê.

Sy wil ook via hierdie artikel die wanpersepsie regstel dat sy aan Downsindroom ly.

“Ek het ’n ekstra chromosoom en hét Downsindroom. Dis nie ’n siekte nie en mense met Downsindroom ly nie meer soos in die verlede toe hulle weggesteek of in ’n inrigting geplaas is nie. Dis net wanneer aborsies gedoen word, dat hulle ly,” het sy gesê.

Volgens haar ma, Susette, was en is haar lewe anders.

“Shéri is en sal altyd stadiger wees, al verstom sy my daagliks. Haar onderwys- en werkloopbaan was vol struikelblokke, waarvan die lesers in die boek kan lees. Maar die lag was baie, veel meer as die hartseer,” het sy gesê.

“Haar suksesse was nie gemeet aan ander se sukses nie en ook nie aan wat sy nie kan

By die bekendstelling van die boek Shéri ­ nes ek is by die Alta du Toit­nasorgsentrum in Bellville, was (van links) Susette Brynard, Shéri se ma, Colleen Naudé, medeskrywer, Shéri en Maryna van der Meulen, woordvoerder van die nasorgsentrum. doen nie, maar wat sy wel kan doen. Sy groei nog elke dag en in haar beroepslewe kry sy stadigaan meer verantwoordelikhede,” het Susette gesê.

Shéri het ’n spesiale vriend, Gustav Taljaard, wat vier ure uit Bloemfontein bly en boer.

“Hulle is al 20 jaar spesiale vriende, maar omdat nie een van die twee hul lewens wil los nie, bly die een nie by die ander nie.

“Hulle kan ook nie vir mekaar sorg nie en hulle het nie seksuele gevoelens vir mekaar nie; dus is trou nie ter sprake nie.

“Beide geniet die verhouding soos dit is.

Shéri se behoefte is om normaal te wees en dan te trou, soos haar sussies gedoen het. Sy weet egter dit kan nie gebeur nie en wanneer sy haar stories op televisie kyk, is Gustav nie gewild as hy haar bel nie,” vertel Susette laggend. Haar boodskap by bekendstellings van haar boek is dat jy net die beste jy kan wees, sonder om jou met ander te vergelyk.

Volgens haar wil sy huil as mense hulle as “hemelkinders” beskryf, wat net uitverkore mammas kry, want die mense weet nie van beter nie. Hulle is glo liefdevol en dierbaar, maar volgens haar is hierdie idee baie verouder, al is dit goed bedoel.

“Ek is net ’n kind wat stadiger ontwikkel.

Alle kinders wat slaap, lyk vir my soos hemelkinders. Hulle is verseker nie almal liefdevol nie en kan maar lekker stout en vol streke wees soos enige ander kind. Dankie tog hulle is net gewone kinders wat hul grense soms toets,” het Shéri gesê.

“Shéri is pragtig en vol liefde, soos vele ander kinders ook. Hulle pas nie almal in dieselfde boksie nie en moet nie met mekaar vergelyk word nie. Hulle verskil nes normale kinders van mekaar verskil, tog is daar baie normale en Downsindroom-kinders wat liefdevol en dierbaar is.

“Dis verseker nie spesiale mammas wat sulke kinders kry nie. Enige mamma wat ’n kindjie grootmaak met liefde en ondersteuning, is spesiaal, so ook mammas met kinders met Downsindroom.

“Ek was maar kwaai met haar en het duidelike grense gestel. Dit het Shéri gehelp om

binne die grense van dissipline te funksioneer,” het Susette gesê.

Drama is Shéri se heel lekkerste stokperdjie. “Sy het al twee keer in Binnelanders op televisie verskyn en ook in twee verskillende verhoogproduksies op die Vrystaat-Kunstefees gespeel. Die kunstefees is soortgelyk aan die KKNK. Sy het al meer as 500 keer nasionaal en internasionaal as gasspreker opgetree. Haar boodskap is ’n boodskap van hoop, nes haar boek,” het haar ma gesê. Volgens die mede-skrywer, Colleen Naudé, kry hulle baie goeie terugvoering oor die boek.

Op ’n vraag watter mense ’n invloed op haar lewe gehad het, het Susette geantwoord dat daar ontsettend baie mense is wat werktuie in die hand van die Here is.

“Om een of twee uit te sonder sou verkeerd wees. Sy dra haar boek aan haar ouma, Sarie Horak, en pa, Jerry, op, wat albei oorlede is en nooit al die lekker van haar suksesse saam met haar kon beleef nie. Albei het ’n ongelooflike rol in haar lewe gespeel.”

Op ’n vraag wat nog op haar wenslysie is, het Shéri gesê dat sy graag weer in Binnelanders wil speel.

“Die Here gee gewoonlik veel meer as wat sy oor droom, maar as jy haar vra is daar net een antwoord: om weer eendag in Binnelanders te speel. Volgende jaar is sy genooi om in China en Skotland te gaan praat. NieuSeeland het ook ’n uitnodiging gestuur en sy gaan ook in Namibië praat. Sy is ook genooi om volgende maand by die Oxford-universiteit by ’n onderwyssimposium te praat, maar ons geld is nou op en hopelik kan ons dit volgende jaar inpas,” het Susette gesê.

Marina van der Meulen, woordvoerder van Alta du Toit-nasorgsentrum, het gesê dit was vir hulle ’n wonderlike voorreg om haar te ontmoet en te verwelkom. “Sy is ’n ware inspirasie vir almal – nie net vir mense met Down-sindroom nie. Sowat 100 mense het die bekendstelling bygewoon, wat deur Lux Verbi gereël is. Die boek is in Engels en Afrikaans by boekwinkels beskikbaar,” het Van der Meulen gesê.

630 new housing units for Belhar

M

ore than six hundred social housing units, comprising of bachelor, onebedroom and two-bedroom units in the Belhar Gardens development were completed in August this year.

The development, situated on the corner of Carmen End and Symphony Way, is being managed by the Madulammoho Housing Association, one of the social housing companies who has partnered with the City of Cape Town.

“Belhar Gardens recently achieved an Edge preliminary grading from the GBCSA, meaning it has been recognised for Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies (Edge).

The final certification is to be issued within the next two months. The significance of this certification cannot be overstated.

“Cape Town is facing one of the worst droughts in recorded history. The long-term sustainability of our city depends on our ability to plan ahead, use innovative technologies, and foster an acute awareness of how we use scarce resources. It is imperative that all of us who are involved in urban development, be it the private or public sector, focus on methods and innovative designs to save water and electricity, and to limit the impact on our environment,” said Brett Herron, Mayco member for transport and urban development in the City of Cape Town.

“I want to commend Madulammoho for this achievement and for setting the benchmark in social housing developments. We are proud to have them as a social housing partner. They have proved to the industry that one can go green when building affordable housing units, and that energy and water efficiency is not the sole preserve of upperincome developments,” he said.

The tenants, the majority of whom are from the Belhar area or work in close proximity to the development, have already moved in.

Up to 30% of the 630 units were reserved

The housing consists of bachelor, one­bedroom and two­bedroom units. for households with a combined monthly income of less than R3 500 per month, and 70% were allocated to households earning a monthly income of between R3 500 and R7 500.

“Tenants residing in social housing developments must be able to pay rent, and are charged for their water and electricity usage. Thus, the energy and water saving design implemented at Belhar Gardens also benefits the tenants as the savings are passed on to the households, making these units more affordable,” said Herron.

The units at the Belhar Gardens development use, on average, 30% less water and energy than other housing developments with traditional water and energy designs.

“Each unit has been fitted with water flow restrictors and water meters that measure the amount of hot and cold water used. In

so doing, the household or tenant is aware of their water usage at all times, and can implement their own water saving methods.

We have also replaced conventional geysers with heat pump stations at every block of units. The heat pumps can save up to 48% in electricity use, compared with conventional geysers. The hot water is measured separately for each unit, meaning we pass the savings on to the tenant, said Madulammoho’s chief executive officer, Renier Erasmus.

The Edge preliminary certification confirms that the design implemented at the Belhar Gardens development meets the minimum benchmark saving of 20% in water and energy used. The GBCSA conducted the final audit and site inspection a month ago and is expected to issue the full certificate

by January 2018.

“The initial cost associated with the ener-

gy saving design is higher when compared with conventional designs. The heat pumps are, for example, two times more expensive than conventional geysers and came at an additional cost of approximately R5 million for this development. The water reduction designs added an extra R1 000 for each unit.

That aside, we think this is the way to go as we want to make our units as affordable as possible,” said Erasmus.

The City’s Transport and Urban Development Authority is pursuing the green agenda. “The GBCSA certification is important as it demonstrates that affordable housing can go green and still be viable. We want developers to take note, and to follow the example set by Madulammoho. In the meantime, we are also looking into innovative designs that can save us water and electricity, as well exploring alternative building materials that are cheaper and environmentally friendly,” said Herron.

Agreements with social housing companies are based on the public-private partnership model for service delivery. These agreements stipulate the aims, goals, objectives, performance targets, and specific areas of cooperation between the City and the institutions. The City provides rates subsidies and the social housing companies access capital subsidies from other spheres of government to ensure that more affordable rental accommodation options are provided.

“When council adopted the Organisational Development and Transformation Plan in August 2016, we made a commitment to take radical steps to accelerate change. The Transport and Urban Development Authority is tackling the housing challenge head-on, and we are proud to have partners from the private sector who assist us in providing decent and affordable housing to those who need it most,” said Herron.

Disposing of waste, a costly exercise

STOP NOU DIE MELKERY Van kapitaal tot kinders, kry alles op een plek vir net R99pm

JAY­DEE CYSTER @jaydeecyster

Residents have been complaining that the disposing of waste at local landfills has become unneccesarily expensive.

According to Piet Grobbelaar from the Mini-Skippers Association, he is tasked with driving away and disposing of the waste of residents in Bellville and the surrounding areas. However, due to the excessive costs at the landfills the residents are required to pay Grobbelaar extra for the disposal.

“My clients are unhappy as they have to pay nearly R700 extra for me to dispose of the waste at the landfill,” says Grobbelaar.

According to the City of Cape Town’s Mayco member for informal settlements, water and waste services; and energy, Xanthea Limberg, the general waste tariff is R480.10 per ton and R240.00 per half-ton valid up until the end of June 2018.

She confirms that the City has received numerous complaints regarding the tariffs as well as what kinds of waste the City is charging for.

“The rule is that waste is free up to or equal to 1.5 tons generated on residential properties,” explains Limberg. “However, the definition states clearly that the vehicles delivering the waste must have a carrying capacity of less than or equal to 1.5 tons (this is the gross vehicle mass minus the tare) and the waste must be generated on a

residential property.”

The City confirms that three loads of garden waste, clean builders rubble and garage waste generated on residential properties but excluding kitchen waste can be disposed of for free on a daily basis. Unlimited loads of recyclables and limited household hazardous wastes can also be disposed of for free.

Limberg however confirms that there are some limitations which are applicable. “If the waste is contaminated, or mixed, or is not generated on a residential property, then the general waste tariff applies. Contamination is gauged by a visual inspection initially and after disposal to ensure that the load is not contaminated by more than 10%,” says Limberg. If a load falls outside of the aforementioned requirements for free waste, then payment is required for all loads including those which weigh less than 1.5 tons.

The money generated at the landfills, which forms part of the solid waste disposal branch is used to off-set operating costs of the disposal branch, confirms Limberg.

“Presently all loads of clean builders rubble are accepted free of charge at the City’s three landfill sites which include the Bellville South landfill, the Coastal Park landfill and the Vissershok landfill,” says Limberg.

‘Transformers’ ook by Bastion se Kleurfees

35 Koerante & 11 Tydskrifte

Groot opwinding heers by die Laerskool Bastion ná twee van die Transformers-karakters die skool gebel en gevra het of hulle ook deel van die Kleurfees op Saterdag 2 Desember kan wees.

Dit is nog nie bekend of Bumblebee en Optimus Prime saam aan die pretloop gaan deelneem nie, maar dis verseker dat hulle in die pret gaan deel! Die Kleurfees begin om 10:00. Dit is soortgelyk aan die gewilde

Color Run – ’n mens begin met ’n skoon wit hemp en eindig met ’n kleurvolle vrolike, bont hemp ... en hare ... en skoene!

Die pretloop strek oor 4 km. Na die tyd kan almal lekker verder saamkuier. Dit kos R40 vir kinders van 0 tot 3 jaar, R80 vir kinders (4 tot 13) en R100 vir volwassenes. Dit sluit ’n T-hemp in en ’n pakkie verf. Inskrywingsvorms is beskikbaar by die skool en op Bastion se Facebook-blad.

NET AS ONS SAAMWERK KAN ONS DIT VERMY Kaapstad gaan gebuk onder die ergste droogte ooit. Daar bestaan ’n groot moontlikheid dat DAG ZERO – die dag waarop die Stad se krane toegedraai word – in Mei 2018 sal aanbreek. Wanneer dit gebeur, sal inwoners by waterafhaalpunte moet toustaan en tot 25 l per persoon per dag gerantsoeneer word.

Die Stad doen alles moontlik om bykomende water te bekom, insluitende deur middel van ontsouting, waterdraers en herwinning van afvalwater, maar dit is noodsaaklik dat elke enkele inwoner minder as 87 l per dag gebruik. Dis in binne ons vermoë om nou so veel as moontlik water te spaar en DAG ZERO te vermy.

Tiere maak toneelkompetisie hul eie AVRIL FILLIES

D

ie Hoërskool Tygerberg in Parow is in die Kunstekaap as die wenner van die ATKV se tienertoneel-kompetisie gekroon met hul toneelstuk Innie selle.

Dit is die tweede agtereenvolgende jaar dat die skool die eerste, tweede en derde plekke verwerf by die Kaapstad-streekfees van die ATKV en twee van die skool se toneelstukke is vir die eindronde gekies. Die ander een was Sewentien.

In 2016 het In kleur die vierde plek verower en Die staat teen Sara die vyfde plek.

“Dis vir ons skool ’n geweldige groot eer en voorreg om vanjaar weer so goed te doen.

Toneel het werklik vlam gevat by ons skool, en ons het altesame vyf toneelstukke by verskeie kompetisies ingeskryf,” het Alicia Dreyer, een van die skool se dramaleiers, gesê. Hier is ’n kort opsomming van die toneelstukke wat die skool ingeskryf het: Sewentien: Daar was ’n tyd toe hulle nie geworry het

wat ander van hulle dink nie; toe dit nie belangrik was of hulle ’n boyfriend of girlfriend gehad het nie; toe gewildheid nie saak gemaak het nie; toe hulle weke lank kon aanhou sonder om te huil; en toe hulle gedink het dat almal hul vriende is. Hulle was mal daaroor om skool toe te gaan. Hulle was die heeltyd gelukkig. Maar wat het gebeur en wat het van hulle geword? Om sewentien te wees, is geen musical nie, maar ’n stryd om te oorleef.

Innie selle: Hoe beland ’n mens in die tronk? Miskien help jy ’n antie wat gerob word, maar sy kla jóú van diefstal aan. Miskien slat ’n kind sy stiefpa dat hy in drie stukke deur die huis lê. Miskien steek jy iemand met ’n skerpgemaakte canfruit-blik dat die bloed soos ’n fontein by sy nek uitspuit. Miskien word jy gevang terwyl jy gesonde appels steel.

Of miskien verkrag jy ’n familielid om gangster-sterretjies te verdien. Dalk het jy jou pasgebore baba in ’n swart drom by Pick n Pay se ingang weggegooi. En as jy kan

mooi plies eksplein, word jy dalk vrygelaat.

Karretjiemense: Hierdie stuk is gegrond op die boek geskryf deur Carol Campbell. Dit is verwerk vir die verhoog deur Marguerite du Bois, wat ook die regisseur van hierdie stuk is.

Vyftien jaar lank kruip Muis al weg. En noudat die Karoo so droog is, wil haar man, Kapok, hul donkiekarretjie in Leeu-Gamka se rigting draai – die één plek wat Muis nooit weer wil sien nie, want dit is hier waar die wrede Muskiet vir haar wag om haar terug te kry.

Klein Witpop is opgewonde. Dalk kan sy skool toe gaan. Haar broer, Fansie, hoop daar sal meer kos wees. Maar die duiwel is los in Leeu-Gamka en hulle moet desperaat vlug op hul karretjie. Sonder dokumente wat wys jy bestaan, kan die polisie jou nie veel help nie. Sonder papiere het jy nie ’n gesig nie en is jy nie ’n mens nie.

“Ons drie senior stukke (hierbo genoem) word jaarliks opgevoer by verskeie toneelkompetisies, soos die Logan-, Namakwa-

land-, Durbanville-, Klein Libertas-fees en Montagu-toneelfees, asook by die Tygerberg-eisteddfod en die ATKV. “Kerscha Titus, wat die rol van Witpop vertolk in Karretjiemense, is by ses van die feeste genomineer as beste ondersteunende aktrise en het by al ses die feeste die toekenning ontvang. Vanjaar het ons skool weer deelgeneem aan die ATKV-kompetisie se Kunstekaap-streekfees en het eerste, tweede en derde plekke verwerf. Sewentien en Innie selle is gekies vir die top-15. Meer as 200 inskrywings is ontvang en ons is baie trots op ons prestasie,” het Dreyer gesê.

Volgens haar is die regie van Toneel vir my deur Danielle de Villiers, ’n gr. 11-leerder, gedoen.

“Danielle is by al die feeste waar sy deelgeneem het, aangewys as beste aktrise, haar stuk ook as die beste produksie. Ons is geweldig trots op haar en haar groep. Indien ons die ATKV-trofee buite rekening laat, is ons by 6 feeste 64 keer genomineer en het ons 33 trofeë ingepalm,” het Dreyer gesê.

Renew vehicle licences early The City of Cape Town has urged residents to apply for their licence discs in good time to avoid the expected long queues. In a statement, the City said they are bracing themselves for the annual influx of residents applying for their motor vehicle licence renewals ahead of the December holidays.

Johan van der Merwe, the City’s Mayco member for finance, says although they have implemented measures to deal with the high volume, long queues are still expected as people often visit the licensing offices during their December holidays.

Residents can avoid these queues by renewing their licence discs online, and the City encourages them to go this route if possible.

An online licence application takes approximately 14

days from the date of application to receiving it in the post, so residents must bear this in mind.

People are reminded to take along their proof of address when renewing their motor vehicle licences. It is very important to have all of the required documentation to prevent any additional delays.

Van der Merwe says the City has done everything possible to increase staff in the lead-up to and during December, both at the walk-in centres and for the online service, but the demand remains quite high as many residents scramble.

V The motor vehicle licence rene­ wal offices across the city will close early, at 13:00, on Friday 1 Decem­ ber, and will be closed on 16 De­ cember, 23 – 26 December, 30 De­ cember and 1 January.

First Evergreen Golf Day The Evergreen Resource Centre in Blackheath is hosting their inaugural golf day at the Somerset West Golf Club on Thursday 30 November at 11:00.

The funds raised will be used by the centre to fund the various programmes offered at the centre.

These programmes include computer training, flower ar-

ranging, needlework classes as well as the upkeep of the centre’s library.

The cost is R2000 per four ball.

Lucky draws and an auction will be taking place and each player will be provided with a goodie bag and dinner.

Five Star Dance Band nie ’n hierjy­orkes nie AVRIL FILLIES

I

n die verlede was dit ’n móét om ’n langarmorkes by gesellighede soos mondigwordings, troues, klubdanse of bekeruitdelings te hê.

Maar deesdae tree die plaaslike diskojoggie sommer by sulke geleenthede op en het die spesiale “iets” van ’n langarmorkes verlore geraak.

Dís hoe Clive Lekeur, klawerbordspeler van die langarmorkes Five Star Dance Band van Eersterivier, sy ervaring beskryf. “Jy moet weet, baie van dié orkeste het ook by baldanskompetisies opgetree, maar deesdae hoor jy min of niks van baldanskompetisies wat in die Goeie Hoopsentrum of by burgersentrums in ons woongebiede gehou word nie.

“Met die afwesigheid van die baldanskompetisies het die orkeste ook net van die toneel verdwyn,” het hy gesê.

Die Five Star Dance Band is nie net sommer enige orkes nie, want hulle het in 2003 die Sakkie/Langarmkompetisie van kykNET gewen toe boereorkeste en langarmorkeste mekaar die stryd aangesê het.

“Die kompetisie op kykNET het ons die kans gegee om naam te maak. Dit was bloot toevallig dat ons ingeskryf het, want destyds het Five Stars nie as orkes bestaan nie.

“Ons was ’n saamgeflanste orkes vir dié kompetisie, want soos jy weet, is mense uit

Die orkes is dus vir die kompetisie gestig en het al op plekke soos Mosselbaai, George, Knysna, Johannesburg en Port Eliza-

beth opgetree.

“Ons lede kom van Eersterivier, Macassar en Steenberg en ons bruinmense is mos bekend vir langarm en ontspan. Oupas leer hul seuns om musiekinstrumente te bespeel en so word die tradisie voortgesit. Dié musiekmakery begin mos eintlik in die

Die Five Star-orkes bestaan uit ses lede, vyf mans en ’n vrou. Hulle is Gavin Davis, Clive Lekeur, Gino Domingo, Ruben Davids, Jakes Andrews en Lucinda Davis.

“Van ons het grootgeword met langarmmusiek en orkeste. Wat my beïnvloed het, was die R&B-groep Earth Wind and Fire van Amerika en die doyen van langarmmusiek Victor Sylvester. Plaaslik het Johnny Appolis van Worcester en Ritz van Port Elizabeth ook tot my belangstelling in langarm bygedra,” het Davis gesê.

Volgens hom speel hulle nie net langarmmusiek nie, maar ook jazz, pop en rhythm and blues.

“Ek kan ook ander musiekinstrumente soos die baskitaar en klavier speel, maar die kitaar is my sterk punt. Wat ons anders maak as ander orkeste, is dat ons ons eie brand het en ons speel meestal ou standards in langarm-tempo’s.

“Jy weet wanneer dit ’n wals, stadige jakkalsdraf (foxtrot) of snelpasdans (quickstep) is,” het hy gesê.

Tot op hede het Five Stars al drie CD’s uitgereik en beoog om teen Kersfees ’n Kersfees-CD uit te reik. Rig navrae aan Gavin by 082 335 8565 of Clive by 082 780 4508.

TYGERBURGER Elsiesrivier 23

Durbanville goed geplaas in WP­Premierliga SAREL BURGER

D

ie onoorwonne Durbanville is halfpad deur die jongste reeks Premierligakrieketwedstryde in die WP goed geplaas vir nog ’n sege, terwyl Tygerberg-klub die afgelope naweek die beste vertoon het in die eerste liga.

Durbanville (245/8 gesl.) het ’n eerstebeurt-voorsprong van 77 lopies teen Milnerton en sal sy tweede kolfbeurt op 33/0 hervat.

Kuda Samunderu (61) het met behulp van Leon le Roux (37*) en ander spanmaats die

Durbies goed laat wegspring.

In die kolfbeurt van Milnerton (168) het Jonathan Schwerin (50) en Darryl Barnes (45) egter nie genoegsame ondersteuning van hul spanmaats gekry om binne bereik van die tuisspan se telling te kom nie.

Universiteit van Wes-Kaapland (175/8 gesl.) en Bellville (199) trek nog redelik gelyk, met veral die aanvangsvennootskap van 90 lopies tussen Wian Engelbrecht (72) en Wikus van Vuuren (32) wat Bellville tans ’n geringe voorsprong besorg.

Luke Philander (5/62) en Junaid Dawood

(4/51) het albei goed geboul vir UWK. Brackenfell (108) sukkel nog om sy voete in die Premierliga te vind, met Victoria (184) wat 76 lopies voor is ná die eerste kolfbeurte.

Wiaan Smit (5/41) en Lee-Roy Walters (39*) het die beste vir die Brakke vertoon, en in hul tweede kolfbeurt gaan dit reeds beter met Brackenfell op 47/0. In Goodwood kou Noordelikes (90) behoorlik klippe teen Tygerberg (174 en 104/3). C. Koyana (50), Luwaaz September (4/14) en Azario Adams (3/21) in die eerste beurt en Neil Abrahams (51*) in die tweede beurt, is die manne wat

Tygerberg in ’n wenposisie geplaas het.

Die 53-jarige draaibouler Richard Holman het met 5/64 gesorg dat Noordelikes-Goodwood nie heeltemal oordonder word nie.

Edgemead en Kraaifontein sukkel ook in hul onderskeie wedstryde. Hoewel Brett Mason (76) en Brad Johnson (41) gehelp het om Edgemead ’n skaflike 221/9 gesl. teen St. Augustine te laat aanteken, het hul boulers teen die tuisspan (337/6) gesukkel. In Kraaifontein (133 en 18/2) se wedstryd teen UK (196) was Grant Isaacs (46 en 3/46) en Seth Fledermaus (3/48) al spelers wat hul sout werd was.

Die elite­span van die Dreamclub 100, wat die toernooi onlangs gewen het is hier saam met John Comitis (naasregs), voorsitter van Cape Town City.

Dit was sy idee om jong talent te ontwikkel.

CAPE TOWN CITY­PLAN: VAN STRAAT­ TOT BEROEPSOKKER

Jeugsokker kry groot hupstoot AVRIL FILLIES

A

ltesaam 100 amateursokkerklubs in Kaapstad kan nou aansoek doen om deel te wees van 2018 se Dreamclub van die Premierliga-sokkerklub Cape Town City.

Dreamclub 100 het die afgelope jaar gewys dat dit die mees inklusiewe en omvattende gemeenskapsontwikkelingstruktuur in Suid-Afrikaanse sokker is.

Die Dreamclub 100 is deur John Comitis, voorsitter van Cape Town City, begin toe hy nog betrokke was by FC Cape Town.

“Die Dreamclub 100 gee aan jong sokkerspelers die kans om van straatstokkerspelers tot beroepsokkerspelers te vorder. Die doel van die Dreamclub 100 is om jeugsokker in ons gemeenskappe ’n hupstoot te gee,” het Comitis gesê.

Hierdie 100 satellietklubs se afrigters ontvang beroepsafrigting, asook spelers, uitrusting en toerusting om hul strukture te verbeter, wat alles bydra tot die uitbou van goeie verhoudings tussen plaaslike klubs en Cape Town City.

“Die hoogtepunt van die jaarlikse Dreamclub 100 is die Elite-16-spantoernooi, wat aan die einde van die jaar gehou word. By die toernooi sal 20 spelers gekies word om deel te wees van Cape Town City se eliteakademie.

“Hierdie toernooi word eksklusief vir die 100 uitgesoekte satellietklubs gehou en bied jong, talentvolle sokkerspelers die kans om hul droom te verwesenlik om beroepspelers te word. Verlede jaar se elite-span van die

Dreamclub 100-spelers het reeds met hul afrigting as deel van die Cape Town City-program onder die wakende oog van Justin Hamburger, ons Uefa-A-gelisensieerde afrigter, begin,” het Comitis gesê.

“Baie geluk ook aan die 59 afrigters wat hul Safa-D-lisensies ontvang het, asook die spelers wat in ons elite-afrigtingsklinieke uitgeblink het.

“Die spelers wat aan die einde van die Dreamclub-toernooi gekies is, verdien ook spesiale gelukwense. Ek sien daarna uit om met hierdie groep te werk,” het Hamburger gesê.

“Ek is oorweldig en verheug oor die sukses wat die bekendstelling van die Dreamclub binne ses maande vermag het.

“In 2018 wil ons die goeie werk voortsit met die volle samewerking van Safa in Kaapstad om te verseker dat jong sokkerspelers hul drome ’n werklikheid kan maak,” het Comitis gesê.

“Die ondersteuning wat Kapenaars by wedstryde aan Cape Town City gegee het, is ’n bewys dat die Kaapse gemeenskap met die span identifiseer as die stad se PSLspan, wat deur Kapenaars tot stand gebring is.

“Ons sal voortgaan om eksklusiewe kaartjie-inisiatiewe aan al die geaffilieerde Dreamclub-spanne se lede te bied,” het hy gesê.

Aansoeke om deel van 2018 se Dreamclub 100 te wees, is oop vir alle geaffilieerde klubs van Safa in Kaapstad.
