CARMEN XCLUSIVE: FIRST CHRISTMAS COMPILATION ALBUM NOW AVAILABLE

Christmas with Carmen SAMANTHA LEE

@samantha_lee121

C

armen Herbert Cloete (43) from Parow, better known as performer Carmen Xclusive, has just released a new Christmas-themed album to wow audiences in time for the festive season.

Carmen has been working in the music industry for more than 20 years.

“I was inspired [to become a musician] by my grandmother who was a gospel singer.

She was my mentor,” she says.

The singer and songwriter is releasing her first compilation album, Carmen Xclusive: The Collaboration – Christmas Time Album, which was produced by Andrew Ford at his studio, the NutHouse.

It features modern Christmas hits and includes collaborations with the multitalented local artists Abigail Bagley and Adelia Douw.

Cloete sings all genres but focuses mostly on jazz and RnB. “I have not yet released any of my own material, but have a few collaborations with recording artists.

“I feel motivated by life, love and family.

My family is my life, which makes me flow with melody in tune. I’m inspired by them – by their strength and love for me and my artistry,” she says.

Her family was the main driving force behind the release of this album, she adds.

“Christmas is such an important time for me as it symbolises spending time with family. The joy of bonding with family around Christmas time is something I truly love, and the concept of family over the festive season is why I decided to record this album,” she says.

“The Christmas album was inspired by my family. I have two biological children and two children whom I have taken under my wing as my own. They call me ‘mother of nations’. “They are the reason I had to do this album – because of love. Love for them, love to give in song. It is quite a new sound, bringing new vibrancy to Christmas and the music scene, I think.”

Her songwriting and drive to work in the music industry are also inspired by emotion.

Carmen Xclusive has released a collaborative album of Christmas hits.

“I am inspired by everything. Some may think that I’m naive but feelings inspire me, God inspires me, people inspire me. I write of love and life experiences I personally went through or am going through,” she says.

Like many musicians on the Cape Flats, the roots of her childhood talents lie within the church and it is there that her passion was born.

While the Christmas CD is available, Carmen is also in production with her debut CD of her own songs, Carmen Xclusive’s Debut Album, which is set to be released early next year.

“Every song is a carefully crafted gem and it’s been a long time coming for me to finally

record and put together my very own album.

I can’t wait to share it with everyone.

“I am quite looking forward to launching it nationwide. It is an album that reflects where I was at the time of recording it. It is jazzy and classy and each song has a symbolic meaning in my life.”

She says anyone who wants to break into the music industry must be dedicated and willing to learn.

“Make your artistry a business. Educate yourself through whatever means possible,” she says.

The Christmas collaboration CD was launched on Wednesday and sells for R149.

The songs are also available on iTunes.

Four die in wendyhouse fire in Elsies River NOLUVU LUDIDI AND JAY­DEE CYSTER Four people, including an allegedly pregnant woman, died in a fire that broke out in a wendyhouse on Wednesday 29 November in Elsies River.

According to Elsies River police spokesperson, Captain Daphne O’Reilly, police were called to Bestenbier Avenue in Balvenie Estate at around 04:50, where they found four badly burnt bodies inside the house.

“No foul play is suspected at this stage and an inquest docket has been opened,” confirms O’Reilly.

hat is better than a brisk walk on a sunny day if the ocean beckons at the end of that walk? This was all part of the activities on a day out for a group of Elsies River children when the local ward councillor, Franchesca Walker, and students from the Parow Northlink College campus took them on an out-

ing. Some of the children had never even been to the beach before, Walker says.

“An awesome day was had by all. We walked from Muizenberg beach to St James beach – lekker exercise! The children were swimming – many of them for the very first time. It was really lovely to show them that there is so much more to life than the daily shootings and killings they have grown so accustomed to,” Walker says.

The group was enthralled by the scenic route to Simon’s Town and everything turned out wonderfully, with the kids also being spoiled with a special package to celebrate their day out.

“Thank you to all the officials and community leaders who assisted with the kids.

The best holiday drive is a blood drive.

Samodien gets a kiss from a little Blikkiesdorp resident.

Modern­day Mother Christmas brings joy A

Upcoming clinics: Airport Industria 12 December 2017 І 11:00 – 15:15 WPBTS Bus @ AVTS, Boston Circle, Airport Industria

It only takes takes 30 minutes to save 3 lives!

Remember to eat a balanced meal within 4 hours before you donate blood.

lison Samodien from Goodwood is like a modern-day Mother Christmas – the proof lying in the work she does in communities like Blikkiesdorp, where she recently delivered almost 2500 donated toys, old and new.

Samodien is the chairperson of Think Yellow, an organisation that delivers essential products to those in need every weekend.

Their latest venture on Saturday 25 November in Blikkiesdorp – together with a number of other care organisations – heralded the provision of 1843 new toys, 1750 vegan meals and 2000 cooldrinks!

This year, Samodien says, her organisation appealed to members to donate a toy of R10 and ingredients for a vegan stew “towards bringing smiles to the faces of each and every child under the age of 14 years in Blikkiesdorp”.

She says members on her Facebook group opened their hearts and wallets for this Christmas party and this resulted in the donation of the food, drinks and toys.

She had help from the Merry Pop Ins organisation, whose Cathi Levin also put out an appeal – which brought about 705 donated toys in the space of a week, with the assistance of Kwemvelo Financial Services.

Member Cheryl Terrblanche single-handedly donated 600 toys, Samodien says.

“Party packs were donated for the younger kids by a group of women known as the

‘Stellenboom women’, from Epping Market.

She adds that cash donations were also received from members of the groups to buy food that was cooked by Samodien on the Friday before the event.

“Vegan members cooked pots of food and dropped them off to contribute to feeding the children a healthy, cruelty-free meal.

The NPO Dare to Share donated containers for the food and arranged a donation of 2000 cans of cooldrinks, Samodien says.

Volunteers on the day were from Think Yellow and Green Laundry, as well as the Blikkiesdorp Joint Committee, Blikkiesdorp Bambanani and of course the residents.

All remaining toys will be donated to other settlements before Christmas as part of Think Yellow’s annual campaign to bring a smile, she says.

“Over the December period we need donations of non-perishables such as maize meal, porridge, sugar, soya mince and rice to distribute to the feeding schemes that feed the children in Blikkiesdorp daily.”

“On 17 December Think Yellow will host a cake and tea party for 100 seniors in Blikkiesdorp.”

The public is invited to donate a small gift, cake, muffins or decor for this event.

V Contact Samodien on thinkyellowprojects @gmail.com or visit their Facebook page for more information.

t: 021 507 6300 • www.wpblood.org.za SMS ‘blood’ to 33507 and we’ll call back (R1.50 per SMS)

Hidden impact of the drought

ith Cape Town still facing extreme drought conditions, it is important for all homeowners to be aware of the impact of the drought on their home and therefore their insurance.

There are a number of areas of the home that can be impacted by water restrictions, including water pipes, swimming pools and gardens.

This is according to Dawie Loots, CEO of MUA Insurance Acceptances, who states that damage caused by drought is not a peril that is typically covered by insurance policies, because normally insurance policies cover sudden and unforeseen events, but a drought is a gradual operational cause.

The general principle in insurance is that policyholders should take all reasonable care to safeguard and protect their assets, he says. “In fact, people should act as though they are not insured. This premise also applies in a drought situation – policyholders need to do whatever is reasonably practical to minimise damage when they know about a situation like this.”

Water pipes The current water rationing that is taking place, which involves the complete cutting off of the water supply for short periods, can have a detrimental effect on water pipes, says Loots. “The turning on and off of water can cause pipes to burst, with subsequent risk of flooding and therefore excessive water bills. Clients would have to be aware of this fact and should be more observant in and around their properties to ensure there are no burst or leaking pipes.”

Swimming pools With reports that the water is evaporating quicker than it is raining, homeowners should cover their swimming pools to minimise water evaporation while they are not able to fill the pool due to the water restrictions, says Loots. “Swimming pools are designed to have water in them, so the system, walls and tiling of pools are more susceptible to damage if they are left exposed to the sunlight with no water. Fibreglass pools in particular need water weight from the inside to prevent them from popping out of the ground.”

Homeowners should switch off the pump if the water level drops to below the weir, as this will prevent the pump from sucking in air and in turn burning out, he says. “It is also a good idea to open the cover when it is raining to get as much water in the pool as possible.”

Gardens Due to the fact that drought is not a peril, no insurance policy will cover the reinstatement of gardens due to not being able to water the plants, says Loots. “Even though homeowners are prohibited by law and water restriction limitations from watering their gardens, they can still try to catch rainwater, use greywater or even get a borehole installed – therefore there are certain measures you can take to save your garden.”

In order to find out exactly what is and is not covered by the insurance policy, it is best for homeowners to speak to their broker who will be able to guide them through the complexities of the impact of drought on their insurance, concludes Loots.

This was done especially for its symbolism, as the field is an area in Leonsdale better known for its shootings.

Local oca Leonsdale eo sda e ward a councillor, Franchesca Walker, said the children were profiled by a number of people, and the police’s sector 3 manager, Adeline de Beer, who dressed up as a fairy to teach them to be safety conscious.

Walker lauded the local police for their work and efforts within their community.

“Such awesome work they [police] do. Captain de Beer, you and your team are awesome. Sector 3, you guys rock! I appreciate all you do,” she said on Facebook.

Men join City’s anti­violence programme A

new gender-specific programme hosted by the City is aimed at addressing violence against women and children.

A group of 50 men and several women were addressed by JP Smith, the City’s Mayco member for safety, security and social servi-

ces on Wednesday 29 November at the Delft Community Hall.

Smith was joined by Siyabulela Mamkeli, Mayco member for Area Central, as speaker at the event.

The new Men and Masculinity Programme

will held over the next six months and ultimately seeks to cultivate positive role models while looking into some of the root causes of violence against women and children.

These include gender relations as shaped by tradition and religion, culture, the influence of substance abuse as well as HIV/Aids and parenting issues.

The 50 are the first participants in the project, which is the second gender-specific programme by Smith’s department, with the first being the Women for Change programme, trhough which the City conducts domestic violence education.

“You can’t expect behavioural change without unpacking the complexities that characterise the epidemic that is gender-based violence,” Smith said.

“The Men and Masculinity project aims to do just that, by holding up a mirror to men and helping them assess and adjust their view of themselves, the world and their role in it.”

He added that many existing interventions do not include men, who more often than not are the perpetrators of violence and abuse. “If we are to safeguard our women and children, we need active participation from all members of society, because violence and gender-based violence in particular is a societal problem and not something that can be fixed by government alone.”

The project will be rolled out in three phases: training, post-training support, and the formation of men’s groups that will pass the baton to new participants – with recruiting and training. The group will meet once a week.

“The launch of this project is an opportunity to lay the groundwork for change in our communities. It’s an opportunity for introspection, but also a toolkit for men on how they can make a more positive contribution to their families and society as a whole.”

Workers at HIV clinics treated to delectable lunch DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke

T

o celebrate World Aids Day this past Friday, the Desmond Tutu Foundation in Cape Town, in partnership with Butler’s Pizza, delivered lunch to the many over-burdened health care workers at local HIV treatment clinics across Cape Town.

In the far northern suburbs of Brackenfell and Kraaifontein, City clinics provide ART treatment and care to some 7300 patients, excluding Kuils River patients who are referred to Sarepta or Kleinvlei for treatment.

Between January and October this year, 598 tested positive for HIV at City clinics in this region, according to JP Smith, Mayco member for safety and security and social services. A total of 1723 HIV tests were conducted at Brackenfell clinic where 47 tested positive; 12 000 at Wallacedene and Bloekombos clinics where 520 tested positive, and 2017 at Kuils River clinic where 26 tested positive.

In South Africa as a whole the picture is bleak, with about 270 000 new HIV infections and 110 000 HIV-related deaths in South Africa during 2016. It is estimated

that about seven million South Africans are currently living with HIV. “We know how tough it is to manage a never-ending stream of patients – many of them affected by HIV. We wanted to show appreciation and support for those who are on their feet day in and day out providing health care services to thousands of Cape Town’s citizens. Our aim is to keep HIV on the local and national agenda and to recognise the immense task our health care workers manage every day,” says a spokesperson for the foundation. In addition, the pizza outlet invited clients who ordered pizzas until 3 December to donate R15 towards the Desmond Tutu HIV Foundation in return for a smart Aids ribbon keyring.

Although South Africa has the largest HIV treatment programme in the world, it is estimated that just over half of those living with HIV are on antiretroviral treatment, according to Dr Amy Herman-Roloff of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in South Africa.

“Research has shown that starting ARVs earlier keeps people healthier longer by cutting the risk of serious illness or death by 53%. It also cuts the risk of developing Aids by 70% and lowers the risk of passing HIV to a sexual partner by 96%,” she says.

Book to help prevent abuse A new book, written in language children can understand, is now available for free to guide parents and role players on preventing child sexual abuse.

The release of the book coincided with World Aids Day on 1 December, but also forms part of the 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children.

The authors, a social worker and a clinical psychologist, have more than 50 years of combined experience in the field of child protection. It is for this reason that Edith Kriel and Marita Rademeyer decided to use that combined knowledge to develop the book, titled Preventing Child Sexual Abuse: A Resource for Parents, Caregivers and Teachers.

The activity book, available from Jelly Beanz, a non-profit organisation that works with children and families who have suffered trauma and abuse, is written in a way

that engages children and guides parents step by step in making a serious discussion fun. “The parent thus has the privilege of being the first person to discuss sexuality with the child and to cement healthy values in this very important part of a child’s life.

“Children are bombarded with sexual messages on television, social media, magazines and on the internet. Young people are being exposed to pornography at a rate never experienced before in our country. Unfortunately children often act out what they have seen, which has led to an enormous increase in children being abused by other children,” the organisation says.

Jelly Beanz believes that parents need to engage children in honest conversations about sexuality.

V The book is available in English, isiZulu, isiXhosa, Afrikaans and Sepedi and can be downloaded free of charge from www.jellybeanz.org.za.

Department of Community Safety paving a bright future for South Africa’s youth.

On Saturday, 25 November 2017 the Chrysalis Academy in conjunction with Western Cape Department of Community Safety hosted its quarterly Graduation Ceremony at Porter Estate in Tokai. The event commenced at 10h30 as the Graduates paraded into the courtyard for one last time before contributing positively to society with the skills gained during their stay.

Course breakdown Orientation Phase – The three week Orientation Phase introduces students to a series of Life Orientation classes to promote resilience, self-awareness and improved interpersonal communication. Moreover this phase introduces students to the structured environment and focusses on the basics of fitness and outlining the programme for the rest of the course.

Outdoor Phase – During the 2 week outdoor phase, students are exposed to out-door fun and exploration of both natural landscape and mountains around the academy. This develops their mental strength and teaches them to plan and use resources effectively.

Group photo of the 193 young women from all over the Western Cape, which graduated at the Chrysalis Academy on Saturday, 25 November 2017.

The Chrysalis Academy was set up in 1999 by the Provincial Cabinet as a Social Crime Prevention and Development Programme targeting the youth of the Western Cape. The three months residential programme is aimed at youth between the ages of 18 and 25 with a minimum Grade 9 certification, no criminal record, from the Western Cape province and who are unemployed. Participants who are eligible for the programme are therefore youth who are neither in employment nor in education or training institutions, aligned with the Provincial Government’s youth strategy.

The main funder of the project is the Department of Community Safety. The current trustee members are Dr Marlene le Roux; Dr Don Pinnock; Mr Solly Moeng and Retired Judge Deon Van Zyl. The Trustees are appointed by the MEC of Community Safety for a period of two years. Head of Department for Community Safety and Social Development are ex-official members of the Board of Trustees. The Chief Executive Officer of the Chrysalis Academy is given full authority to run the programme according to best practise principles.

The programme emphasizes on the development of youth of the Western Cape, focusing on mental, emotional, physical and spiritual development. After the three month residential programme, the Department of Community Safety also provides graduates with an opportunity to gain valuable work experience for one year through a paid internship at various institutions across the Western Cape,

and making it convenient for graduates to be placed as close to their homes as possible.

During the internship year, graduates attend various training skills programmes as provided

by Chrysalis, graduates are also able to apply for various positions within the organisations they are interning at.

Skills Phase – The skills phase introduces students to basic vocational skills to prepare them for the workplace, these include computer, cookery, electrical, welding, youth care and sports coaching skills. Participants wake up daily at 04h30 with classes starting at 09h00. The day starts with physical training and then participation in recreational activities such as arts and craft, cultural studies and entertainment. Participants are given the opportunity to choose one of many vocational courses and attend class on a daily basis.

The Chrysalis Youth Academy’s approach and vision is to become the leading academy for youth development in the Republic of South Africa. In essence, the activities and topics introduced are supporting the objectives of steering youth away from alcohol and drug abuse and improvement towards life skills and career choices. For the past financial year the Department of Community Safety and the Chrysalis Academy have placed 554 trained graduates within the community and crime prevention sectors.

The Department of Community Safety continues to fund Chrysalis Academy as it has for the past 17 years, and strives to pave a brighter future for South Africa’s youth.

Chrysalis Academy student, Rhowda Isaacs receives her Graduation Certificate from Western Cape Social Development MEC Albert Fritz. Right: Western Cape Health MEC Nomafrench Mbombo.

Course Management The course is conducted over a period of three months with approximately 180 participants.

There are three intakes per year with two set aside for males and one for females. The course consists of an Orientation, Outdoor and Skills phase.

Galactic marvel at Canal Walk

Does life really begin at 40? iaad Moosa tries to figure this out with his hilarious one-man show, Life Begins, which offers a snapshot of his life as a 40 year old, a father of three children, a husband, comedian and actor within the current cultural and political climate.

Following sold-out shows across the country, Moosa returns by popular demand for the last Cape Town performance of Life Begins at the Cape Town International Convention Centre on Saturday 16 December.

“Even though I am now 40, in many ways I feel like I’m still crawling, and I’m looking back at my journey from being an aspirational doctor, coming from a relatively conservative Muslim background where both my parents were doctors, and how I actually journeyed to becoming a stand-up comedian,” says Moosa.

As an award-winning comedian, actor, writer and presenter, Moosa is one of South Africa’s most popular and acclaimed funnymen who just happens to be a qualified medical doctor as well.

Known as the “Comedy Doctor”, he certainly seems to have the remedy for the nation’s ills – a healthy dose of laughter.

The Life Begins tour will also see Moosa performing in Newcastle, Durban and Empangeni.

“The show is very philosophical and existential. It involves the normal issues of getting older while at the same time experiencing, at a maturity where I’m supposed to be wise, a world that is completely turned on its head – with Trump and Brexit; and in South Africa, ‘State Capture’ and the ‘Fees Must Fall’ movement,” explains Moosa. “The show is about how I negotiate all these things happening around me while trying to maintain a positive attitude. Through my comedic lens, I hope to put a different spin on that, and

There will also be a pop-up planetarium to fire the imagination, as well as a space café for refreshments.

Vanesa Herbst, Canal Walk’s marketing manager, says they are all set to welcome locals and those from much further afield in a cross-planetary exchange of laughter and festive fun.

“We are delighted to host this event and can’t wait to have the centre filled with happy energy over the holidays.

“Canal Walk’s end of year entertainment has become something to look forward to for many,” she says.

TOP CROP: LOCAL ATHLETICS HEROES HONOURED

WP’s athletes awarded W

estern Province Athletics (WPA) rewarded its top athletes at an annual awards evening held at the Athlone Civic Centre on Friday.

Members were awarded for their commitment and achievements throughout the season.

Marcel Otto took home the Coach of the Year award. Otto is the coach of Antonio Alkana, a member of the SA team and the new SA record holder in the 110m hurdles.

The men’s Athlete of the Year award went to Lungile Gongqa who won the Two Oceans ultra-marathon and the 42.2km of the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon in September. He also achieved the standard time required for three 10km events at the Central 10km race in April.

The men’s Junior Athlete of the Year title was awarded to Breyton Poole, who won the high jump at the IAAF world junior championships in Kenya earlier this year. He’s at the top of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) world ranking for u.18 boys.

Women’s Athlete of the Year is Dominique Scott, who is eighth on the IAAF world ranking for her best time in the one mile (in-

doors).

The women’s Junior Athlete of the Year title was bestowed on Julie Vercuiel, a hurdler who is 11th on the IAAF world ranking for u.18 girls.

Anthony Timmy Timoteus, the SA cross country silver medallist, took home the Cross Country Athlete of the Year award, an award that was won by WPA great Owen Machelm in the year Timoteus was born.

Tamzin Thomas, WPA and Southern Region 100 and 200m champion, was rewarded with full colours, while Luke Davids, who represented SA at the Commonwealth Youth Games, received full colours for his bronze medal at the South African championships earlier this year.

Geraldine King received an award for representing the country at the Southern Region Championships earlier this year. Hilton Keith Langenhoven just missed out on the Paralympic Athlete of the Year award, but was recognised for his brilliant international season.

Danone is doing good Registration for the 2018 edition of the world’s largest soccer tournament for kids between 10 and 12 years is now open.

Schools across the country are invited to become part of the Danone Nations Cup, which touches the lives of over two million people annually.

Next year will mark the 19th edition of the tournament, which is the brainchild of Danone, the world’s biggest producer of dairy products. South Africa has been participating in the tournament since its inception and has won the world title three times: in 2003, 2007 and 2009.

The tournament is run in partnership with the South African Schools Football Association (SASFA) and it comprises games beginning at cluster level, with winning schools progressing to regional and then provincial levels, culminating in the national finals where the national champion team that will represent the country at the Danone Nations Cup world finals is identified.

Last year, over 2700 schools registered to play in the initial rounds of the tournament, which was the highest number of schools to have registered in the history of the tournament in this country.

In 2017, for the first time, schools belonging to the Johannesburg Primary Schools Football Association joined the tournament and hosted their own final. The number of schools from the association is expected to grow substantially in 2018.

Among the schools expected to be the

first to enter are Benny’s Sports Development and Academy from Limpopo (2016 national champions) and the defending champions, Mophela Primary School from KwaZulu-Natal. The former school, under coach Mbishi Mokwena, has already started preparing their team.

The basis on which the competing nations decide on their champion team differs from country to country. In South Africa it is an inter-school competition. Other countries send their top club youth sides or academy teams, whilst others select regional or even national teams at u.12 level.

The Danone Nations Cup is built on the fundamental principles of participation, friendship, accessibility and fair play.

The eventual 2018 SA champion team will participate in the world finals at a venue still to be decided. To register, contact Themba Tshabalala at thembatshabalala@saschoolsfa.co.za or on 072 588 4957.
