DISAPPOINTED: BUT SENIORS WILL RECEIVE GIFT PACKS
Christmas lunch cancelled RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj
T
he annual Christmas lunch for seniors which is hosted by councillors in their respective wards, an event many pensioners look forward to throughout the year, will not be taking place this year. This is due to the current Covid-19 pandemic. The events are usually held in local community halls. Jackie Visser, councillor for ward 10 which includes Klipkop, Parow East, Avondale and Beaconvale, told TygerBurger it is
sad but that she is looking forward to hosting next year’s event. “I am very much aware of the disappointment for the seniors. They are looking forward to this yearly event, but unfortunately it is for their own good health that we have to cancel the events. “We plan to make small gift packs to hand out to seniors in the new year. “We also hope we can continue with these events in the future, but at this stage, as said, we must respect the Covid-19 regulations and the disaster management act,” Visser says.
Leonore van der Walt, councillor for ward 2 which includes Fairfield Estate, Glenlily, Parow North, Churchill Estate and Oosterzee, says in terms of level 1 of the disaster management act regulations there are still restrictions on the number of people attending a gathering, and the social distance that needs to be observed. “If a social event is not taking place as a result, it is to the benefit of those who would have attended. “The size of a hall available for social gatherings determines the number of people who may attend a function. It would be irres-
ponsible to have a party in this current pandemic, more so for seniors, as they are deemed high-risk,” Van der Walt says. Helen Carstens, councillor for ward 5 which includes Bothasig and Edgemead, said Covid-19 has indeed had an effect on life as we know it after she too had to cancel their lunch. “I would have had an end of year function for the seniors in my ward as I do every year. As we fell deeper and deeper into this lockdown, I have needed to make alternative arrangements. V To page 2

City ready for Covid resurgence T
he Western Cape health department has confirmed that the Cape metropole is experiencing a resurgence in Covid-19 cases. According to a statement released by the City of Cape Town, based on the experiences of other countries around the world, the confirmation should sound a warning to us all that the growing complacency in recent months needs to be cast aside with urgency. “It is imperative that Cape Town pulls together to ensure that the resurgence in caseload and related hospitalisations are curbed, and quickly too. “The City’s health department remains equipped to assist with Covid-19 screening,

testing and referrals, but also contact tracing in conjunction with other health agencies. “The majority of our 34 overflow facilities, opened earlier this year to increase capacity at clinics in light of the pandemic, remain active, as are the mobile testing booths that were set up at a number of clinics,” the statement reads. As indicated, there is growing community transmission across the metropole, with certain suburbs showing higher active caseloads, based on the available data. These suburbs include Bellville, Claremont, Delft, Dunoon, Grassy Park, Gugulethu, Hanover Park, Kuils River, Lentegeur, Lotus River, Macassar, Milnerton,
Nyanga, Ottery, Parklands, Parow, Pinelands, Rocklands, Rondebosch, Sea Point, Somerset West, Strand, Tafelsig and Wynberg. However, the City says the public should continue adhering to the Covid-19 health and safety protocols that were so diligently observed during the peak of the pandemic earlier this year. “Unlike the peak, when the country was still in a hard lockdown, there is far more mobility under the current alert level, which means the risk of transmission is greater, and not limited to the suburbs that are experiencing a surge in caseload,” the City says. Apart from regular hand washing and sa-
FROM PAGE 1 “At present I am working on an event for the seniors in February, when hopefully we will be in a better position, however this too will be subject to the Covid-19 situation. “The fact that it is the seniors who are of the vulnerable group makes it imperative that we observe the need to keep them safe and not put them in any danger,” says Carstens. Carstens says within the next few weeks she will be reaching out to a very few senior residents on an individual basis with some festive cheer.
“I must remind one and all that this is a very challenging time as we have just been alerted to a high resurgence of Covid-19 and that we must take all protocols seriously, and most importantly we should stay at home and wear a mask outside, avoid groups and keep a social distance. The washing of hands is paramount. “Needless to say I would like to wish all the residents a safe and happy time over this festive period that will no doubt be different to the times we have spent previously,” Carstens says.

‘Green’ award for GTP The Greater Tygerberg Partnership (GTP) is the winner in the Mail & Guardian’s Greening the Future Awards, earning it national recognition for its Zero Waste Schools project, in the Clean Air and the Quality of Life category. The project introduces a designed system for schools to be able to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill, and to entrench a recycling and waste-reduction mindset into the school curriculum. The project was a collaboration between waste education consultancy Waste-Ed, sustainability education consultancy Plant the Seed, and Hoërskool D.F. Malan, with support from the GTP’s primary funder, the City of Cape Town. The school managed to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill by over 60% within the first three months of the pilot project, which launched in July 2019. It also saved around R36 000 per annum in waste removal fees and is earning the school a rebate of around R1 500 per month in recycling buy-back. GTP CEO, Warren Hewitt, said: “I’m immensely proud of the whole team who have spent many months working closely with the learners and educators at the school to entrench a system that will begin to change mindsets about recycling and waste reduction. “Landfills in our city are reaching capacity and urgent behavioural change is needed to reduce the amount of waste generated in our schools, but also in our communities in general. Education is the starting point to achieve this systemic change.” The GTP is seeking to expand the project to other schools – particularly those in lower-income areas. Schools are guided throughout the process from start to finish. The GTP has developed a toolkit to help with system implementation, which also helps educators to entrench the core recycling mindset and practices into the academic curriculum. The GTP is also inviting the Bellville community to sponsor toolkits to expand the project to other schools across the region.

‘Plakkers’ betrek probleemgebou RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj
’n
Groep haweloses het glo strukture by ’n bekende probleemgebou in Churchill Estate in Parow-Wes begin opslaan. Bettie Burger (59), ’n jare lange inwoner wat daagliks met die probleemgebou en sy “inwoners” te doen kry, sê sy is raadop. TygerBurger het vroeër ook oor die huis in Mosselstraat berig (“Gruwelhuis kwel”, 21/10). Die gebou behoort aan die nasionale departement van openbare werke en is vroeër jare deur die polisie gehuur. Dit staan egter al ses jaar leeg en is in dié tydperk gedeeltelik deur ’n brand beskadig. Die onwettige strukture is op die perseel van die eiendom opgerig, meen Shakir Smith, voorsitter van die Parow-Wes-buurtwag. Hy sê dié wat buite die perseel opgerig is, is reeds verwyder. Burger het ’n reeks foto’s geneem waarop gesien kan word hoe die strukture langs die huis se muur staan. Die strukture bestaan hoofsaaklik uit planke en komberse. “Hulle plak agter in die perseel onder die groot boom in die hoek. My buurman het van die planke gaan stukkend skop, want toe raas en baklei hulle. “Hulle het verlede week begin; daar is twee waarvan ons reeds een afgebreek het, maar toe trek die persoon net by haar ‘bure’ in,” sê Burger. Sy het reeds die departement van openbare werke hiervan in kennis gestel. “Hulle sal nou glo wagte hier plaas, maar dit sê hulle al sedert die eerste koerantberig.”
The Parow police recently held an event to encourage women to stand up against domestic violence. The event was held at the Lighthouse Christian Church. In attendance was senior sister Vernique Edwards, Capt Kevin Williams, senior sister Mary Grootboom, Deidre Goliath and pastor Derrick Schroeder. ’n Groep haweloses het strukture by ’n probleemgebou in Mosselstraat in Churchill Estate in Parow-Wes begin oprig. Daar word glo dwelms gebruik by die huis, wat al jare lank leeg staan. Die huis is ook vroeër erg in ’n brand beskadig.
Women told not to tolerate abuse and to report crime
Burger sê sy werk bedags en vrees om haar huis alleen te laat. “Gister moes ek mense vra om by my huis te kom sit, want ek moes dringend veearts toe en wou nie my huis alleen los nie. So, dit is nou net my probleem,” sê Burger. Vroeër is berig dat die gebou deur dwelmverbruikers benut word. Dit is deur die plaaslike buurtwag en gemeenskapspolisiëringsforum bevestig. Volgens Burger word daar soggens vroeg reeds dwelms gebruik. Die departement van openbare werke het bevestig dat hy van plan is om die huis te verkoop.
The Parow police recently held an event to mark the 16 Days of Activism for no Violence against Women and Children. The event was held at the Lighthouse Christian Church in Wynne Street, Parow, on Thursday 26 November. “Our focus was on the nearly 80 caregivers from Touch Community Services, a non-government organisation that works with the department of health in distributing medicine to various communities across the Cape,” says Capt Kevin Williams, police spokesperson.
Correction Last week TygerBurger reported on a group of community members in Parow West who trimmed down some trees in a bid to clean up their community (“Trees trimmed by community”, 25/11). This work was done by the Parow West Neighbourhood Watch, and not the Parow North Neighbourhood Watch as was reported. TygerBurger apologizes for any inconvenience caused.
About 100 people attended the event. “All of the caregivers received a certificate of appreciation for community work.” The message was aimed at informing them that they are valuable. Williams says the women were informed to stand up against abuse, and to not allow it to happen. “They were also encouraged to break the silence and to report crime.” The Western Cape Department of Health and the Parow Community Policing Forum also attended the event.

Parow singer releases new music A
n established Parow-based music artist is set to release brand new songs early next year. The singer, André Huysamen who was born and raised in Cape Town but lived in Pretoria for 10 years where he made his mark in the local music industry, took some time off during his music career, but has started to focus more on his passion lately, a spokesperson says.
With three albums under his belt, an award nomination for New Artist of the Year at the 2014 Bokkie Music Awards and performances across the country, André took some time off to focus on his studies. Just like many South Africans he faced his own challenges during lockdown, but managed to complete his studies during this pandemic. He recently moved back to Cape Town to open a wellness
business with his partner. “André will also be releasing new music in 2021 for the first time in seven years. “The music will be very positive and uplifting, which he would like to use and combine with motivational speaking and life-coaching next year. “Music will always be his first love but his main focus and priority is to push all his creative energy and pas-
sion into his own business,” the spokesperson says. Other accomplishments include performances at the Union Building in Pretoria, at the FNB Stadium (Soccer City) in Soweto during the MTN Semi 8 Finals between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates and receiving an award from the ATKV for his contribution to the Afrikaans arts and culture.

Stadskoor Tygerberg hoopvol Presies ’n jaar gelede het die Stadskoor Tygerberg uitgesien na ’n besige en opwindende 2020-koorjaar. Hoogtepunte sou onder meer “Last night at the Proms” saam met verskeie ander kore en die Kaapse Simfonieorkes met Richard Cock, ’n piekniekkonsert by die Kasteel de Goede Hoop en ’n galakonsert insluit. “Niemand kon voorsien dat ’n virus ’n streep sou kom trek deur so baie planne en idees nie,” sê Hester Heunis, ’n woordvoerder van die koor. “In hierdie stadium is daar nog groot onsekerheid oor wat 2021 sal bring, maar daar is besluit om proaktief te wees en solank vir moontlike optredes te beplan.” In die eerste helfte van die jaar is daar Paasoptredes, konserte by aftreeoorde en ’n moontlike piekniekkonsert by die Kasteel.
The Swells committee are from left professional nurse Nora Windvogel, prof Rafique Moosa and dr Roshni Mistry with Cape Nature chief executive, dr Razeena Omar, and committee members dr Suretha Kannenberg and dr Granville Marinus.
New garden help health workers A
Staff Wellness and Support (Swells) Committee has recently been established at Tygerberg Hospital with the objective to facilitate enhancement of the hospital’s internal and external physical environment – especially during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic. The committee’s founding members are dr Roshni Mistry (chairperson), dr Granville Marinus (treasurer), prof Rafique Moosa, dr Suretha Kannenberg (secretary) and professional nurse, Nora Windvogel. A wellness park was established recently at the hospital thanks to the committee and with the help of Cape Nature.
Voorlopig sal die koor op Donderdag, 14 Januarie vir die eerste keer weer bymekaar kom. Omdat koorlede in Maart laas saam gesing en gekuier het, sal die geleentheid die vorm van ’n piekniek of sing-a-long aanneem net om mekaar weer te vind en die stemme weer aan die gang te kry. Daar word ’n oefennaweek vir Vrydag 12 Februarie en Saterdag 13 Februarie beplan. “Dit sal vir die koor ’n groot voorreg wees om weer deur ons sang en musiek vreugde en vermaak aan ons ondersteuners te bring.” Die koor wil graag vergroot en soek spesifiek mansstemme. “Ons koorleier, Peter Roux, sal vandeesmaand met oudisies begin. Dit sal voorlopig geskied met ’n selfoon-stemopname. Belangstellendes moet tussen 18 en 55 jaar wees.”
ENROL NOW FOR 2021 • Grades 8 to 10 (higher grades phasing in annually) • Focus on Mathematics, Science, Coding and Robotics • Extended school day for the convenience of working parents
“The vision of the wellness park at Tygerberg Hospital is to benefit staff and patients – a vision which was shared with Cape Nature in 2018. “The project was given momentum with the Swells committee, when planning meetings began in August 2020,” says Laticia Pienaar, hospital spokesperson. On Friday 20 November, the garden area that Cape Nature assisted Tygerberg Hospital with, was officially handed over. “This unique partnership with Cape Nature is something to celebrate, especially during the most challenging health pandemic our country is facing,” Pienaar says.

LEWENSKIEKIE
‘Aaptwak’ nou wettig, maar ... Papegaaislaai, aaptwak, ganja, weed, noem dit wat jy wil, maar dis mos nou, party sal sê uiteindelik, wettig in SuidAfrika. Só wettig dat die een daggaklub ná die ander nou in die land geopen word. Want daar is blykbaar skuiwergate in die wet wat dit moontlik maak. Solank jy nie daarmee handel dryf nie, blyk dit, is almal gelukkig. Ek lees in die koerant dit werk só: Jy sluit by die klub aan en hulle kweek vir jou ’n plantjie op hul privaat perseel. Wanneer jy die behoefte voel, kan jy van jou eie plant op die perseel gaan nuttig. Hulle kan seker lekker muffins ook daarvan maak. Maar jy kan dit rook ook, of gemeng met alkoholvrye bier geniet. Ek hoor selfs gerespekteerde lede van die gereg, soos polisiebeamptes, het al by die klub aangesluit. Hulle kan, want ingevolge die wet word niks onwettigs gedoen nie. Die klub sê: “we consume cannabis for the same reasons people wear glasses – to improve your view of the world”. Helaas en uiteindelik, sal party mense ook sê, want die groen slaai is al lankal wettig in ander lande. Vat nou maar Nederland, waar mense lankal in Amsterdamse restaurante so ’n ou twakkie saam met hul koffie kan bestel. In San Francisco, Amerika, is ’n daggastoppie net ’n oproep ver. Dis ’n kwessie van bel en bestel, en dit word afgelewer. Presies vyftig jaar gelede het in skrille kontras hiermee die volgende beriggie in die koerant verskyn: “Nog ’n daggaplant het in ’n Paarlse tuin kop uitgesteek. Onderwyl werkers in die tuin gewerk het, het hulle op die verdagte plant, wat sowat 18 duim hoog was, afgekom. Hulle het die eienaar daarvan verwittig, wat dit uitgetrek en die polisie ontbied het. ’n Speurder het dit uitgeken as dagga en dit weggeneem. Daar word vermoed dat die saadjie in die tuin gewaai is.” Wel, wel, wel, hoe het dinge nie verander nie! Van die polisie wat jag maak op al wat daggaplant is, tot klubs waar selfs húlle so nou en dan uitslaan vir ’n rookdingetjie. Moet net nie die twakkies koop of verkoop nie, want dit bly onwettig. Intussen het die Daggaparty van Suid-Afrika ook tot stand gekom. Op sy webwerf word 14 redes verstrek waarom dagga goed is vir die mens. Dit bevat Omega 3, 6 en 9 in presies die regte verhouding vir hart- en geestesgesondheid. Die aktiewe bestanddeel THC is ook goeie medisyne teen onder meer pyn, naarheid, asma, depressie en alkoholisme. Boonop beveg dit kankerselle, word op die webwerf gesê. Destyds, toe ons op skool was, sou mense omtrent ’n oorval kry as hulle gehoor het so en so gebruik dagga. Die kruid is hand en tand beveg en dit was omtrent die skande van alle skandes as iemand papegaaislaai gebruik. Maar helaas, mense wat die plantjies tuis kweek moet ook maar ligloop vir die gereg, want as daar te veel is, kan maklik vermoed word dat iemand dit kweek vir verkoop. Nie te lank gelede nie is so vyf plantjies deur die polisie afgevat en is in die media groot gewag gemaak van die “daggaplantasie” wat hulle ontdek het. En dit alles beteken net een ding: Never say never. Wat vandag onwettig is, is dalk môre wettig. – Werner van Tonder
“Die kruid is hand en tand beveg en dit was omtrent die skande van alle skandes as iemand papegaaislaai gebruik.”
Respect for lost lives: Flags across the country flew at half mast as a tribute to lives lost as a result of Covid-19 and victims of genderbased violence in line with President Cyril Ramaphosa’s directive that the country observe a few days of mourning between Thursday 26 and Sunday 29 November. “Many South Africans have experienced the terrible loss of a loved one to one of these two pandemics and we send our condolences to all of those grieving at this time,” says Alan Winde, Western Cape premier.

Gewoonlik kom sy na my as my departement enige aangeleenthede het wat my aandag vereis. Ek het amper altyd nie tyd om na enigeen te gaan nie. My departement vereis baie aandag en baie tyd.

Ek gaan my spelling en leestekens na en druk die stuurknoppie. Die helder blou lug en sonskyn is opvallend vandag, dink ek, terwyl ek na haar kantoor stap. Ek klop, word gesê om in te kom en maak so … “Hello jy,” hoor ek haar sê. “Dankie vir gister se eetgoed met jou verjaardag”. Haar oë lyk onseker, dink ek. Sy sien ek sien die omgedraaide pakkie A4-papiere op die tafel. Dit laat haar ongemaklik lyk. “Voor ek begin, wil ek hê jy moet weet ek stem nie hiermee saam nie ... maar ons moet poste sny. Covid het ons erg geknou. Jy is een van die ongelukkiges. Jy moet einde van die week gaan. Ek is so jammer.” Die res van die formaliteite is ’n gesuis in my ore … en ek hoor nie veel nie. Gelukkig ken ek dit, maar vandag is ek aan die ontvangkant. Oppad terug na my kantoor skyn die son nog net so helder, maar die wind het opgesteek. HARDWERKENDE GESINSMAN E-pos
Too easy to step on a racial toe I have no connection at all with the Brackenfell High School, any of its pupils or their parents, neither do I write on their behalf. That having been said, I do consider a reply to EV Rapiti’s letter (“Brackenfell violence, an issue for serious deliberation”)in TygerBurger of 25 November is necessary. The Constitution guarantees the right to protest, but, this right is to be exercised in a peaceful manner. Unfortunately that proviso appears to be forgotten by all the “protesters” and, as was the case when they “protested” at the Clicks shops, the EFF came to Brackenfell not to protest but to riot. The reason for their “protest” was a case of perceived racism, based on an unproved allegation, which was subsequently denied, which denial stands unchallenged and was accepted by the local MEC for education. Your correspondent, Rapiti, appears to agree with the EFF that the private party was a “racial gathering” because it was attended by white pupils only. The parents are criticised, as well as the teachers who attended and the MEC is suspected of possibly “pandering to the salivating appetite of her racist followers”. The Constitution also guarantees freedom of association. This means that I may invite to my private party whomever I wish. That is my right. The number of guests is irrelevant and when somebody is not invited he, she or it, has no cause for complaint. The fact that those not invited were classmates with the invited pupils, or were in the same rugby or hockey teams gives them no right to an invitation. When a host invites some people and chooses not to
invite others, there is no duty to provide reasons to the uninvited for their being not on the list of guests. Whether the parents did invite some pupils of colour to the party or not is equally irrelevant, except that, if they did, it proves that the party was not exclusively for white pupils only. If the person invited chooses not to come, for whatever reason, that cannot reflect negatively on the one extending the invitation. There could be many reasons, other than racial preference, why the party was attended by white pupils only or why only those white pupils were invited. It is irresponsible to jump to conclusions and shout “racist” on the mere fact that only white pupils attended a private party. I fear that on those grounds I, too, would be accused of racism because I did not, and never have, invited a single person of colour to my birthday party. I have also never accused the people of colour whom I have met and worked with, of being racist for failing to invite me to their weddings or birthday gatherings. Unfortunately race has become such a touchy subject that one can hardly move without stepping on a racial toe. Perhaps it is time that the hysteria stops and all people simply carry on with their lives and earn a living, which is hard enough in this time of Covid. WILLEM DE HAAN Welgemoed
Fisantekraal not neglected As local ward councillor of Fisantekraal, I would like to respond to certain claims by Mr Timothy Wildschut in last week’s TygerBurger (“Fisantekraal neglected”, 25 November).
He is absolutely right in stating that residents have a right to services such as streetlights, and water and sanitation. What he fails to state, is that residents do not have the right to break down infrastructure as soon as it is fixed. There is not an area in the whole of Durbanville that receives more attention, capital and operational city budget, than Fisantekraal. We have a responsibility to ratepayers to spend their money well. If you spend massive amounts of money on the same things over and over again, it is considered fruitless and wasteful expenditure, not maintenance. I know Mr Wildschut only wants the best for Fisantekraal, but one must be conscious about your message in achieving this. The focus should be on behavioural changes within the community, not falsely letting the community believe they are being treated unfairly. If you are serious in bringing about change, statements should be based on facts and root causes addressed. RUAN BENEKE Ward councillor: Ward 105
Munisipaliteit in D’ville is vyfster Ek het op 27 November my motorlisensie by die Durbanville-munisipaliteit hernu en was baie beïndruk met die higiëniese hantering van publiek by dié kantore. Na die bediening van elke kliënt word toonbanke skoongemaak en die toegang tot die toonbanke word streng beheer. Baie dankie aan álmal wat ook pensionarisse met soveel empatie behandel. H.

Durbanville gaan weer stem dik maak in klubkrieket SAREL BURGER Wanneer klubkrieket vroeg in Januarie weer op dreef kom, sal Durbanville weer een van die spanne wees om goed stem dik te maak. In ’n vriendskaplike wedstryd die afgelope Saterdag teen die sterk span van Rondebosch, het die Durbies (144/4) met ses paaltjies geseëvier. Met Bradley Petersen (3/25) en Tashwin Lukas (2/11) aan die voorpunt van Durbanville se boulaanval is Rondebosch vroegdag tot slegs 1 543 lopies beperk, waarna Jean Strydom (57*) en Bradley Barnes (51) met onder meer ’n derdepaaltjie-vennootskap van 66 lopies die knoop deurgehak het. Daar is terloops nog geen uitsluitsel oor
wie van Durbanville en Rondebosch die WP se Premierliga-klubkampioen vir die vorige seisoen was nie. Die Durbies het ’n kortkop voor die Kaapse span op die punteleer geëindig, maar Rondebosch het beswaar gemaak oor die oorwinning wat Durbanville in ’n ander wedstryd behaal het omdat die Tygerbergers van ’n ongeregistreerde speler in daardie wedstryd gebruik sou gemaak het. Die aangeleentheid is in Maart, na afloop van die vorige krieketseisoen, na die bestuur van Krieket Suid-Afrika verwys, maar as gevolg van die chaos vanjaar by die KSA-hoofkantoor het die tugkomitee van KSA hom nog nie verwerdig om oor die WP-kwessie te besin en ’n oplossing te vind nie.

Sintetiese rugbyveld by Curro ingewy Wanneer skolerugbyspanne voortaan by die Curro-skool in Durbanville gaan besoek aflê, sal hulle in die Kaapse winterweer nie meer met modderbaddens en triestige toestande te doen kry nie. Die eerste volgrootte sintetiese rugbyveld in Suid-Afrika is verlede Dinsdag by dié skool ingewy. Op Stellenbosch is daar wel ook ’n soortgelyke kunsmatige rugbyveld, maar dit is net ’n kwart van die voorgeskrewe grootte. Daarby voldoen Curro se Britse-
ontwerpte “turftech”-veld, wat ’n hele paar miljoen rand gekos het, aan wêreldstandaarde. ’n Uitstekende spreiligstelsel sal binne afsienbare tyd ook aangebring word om wedstryde in die aand moontlik te maak. Mettertyd sal ’n spesiaal ontwerpte krieketmat in die middel van die rugbyveld aangebring word, wat dit geskik sal maak vir wedstryde waarin laerskoolspanne deelneem. – Sarel Burger
