‘Nippers’ ‘Nippers’ in full swing

The junior class of the Milnerton Lifesaving Club, the Nippers, started their training recently. With no competitions on the horizon, the club has time to train more lifeguards. Last week saw the start of a new Junior Lifeguard award class. These juniors will hopefully be lifeguards on Millies beach next summer.

BIG BAY LIFESAVING CLUB: FIRST RESPONDERS HAILED

Heroes save woman KAILIN DANIELS @k10aniels

S

uperheroes in Bloubergstrand bravely wearing the “L” on their chest were applauded after saving a woman from drowning over the weekend.

The Big Bay Lifeguards responded to a drowning in front of Pakalolo in Table View on Sunday, saving a 24-year-old woman reported to be in trouble and drifting out to sea.

According to the Big Bay Lifesaving Club, first responders Dylan Lloyd entered the water followed by Kyle Reynolds, Logan Smithers, Wesley Oakes, Luke Batty and Damien Kennedy.

“The young lady was located and returned safely to shore where she received medical attention and was taken off to hospital. Big Bay Lifesaving Club is so proud of these young men and commend them in their amazing response time. Another drowning prevented by our lifeguards,” they said on social media.

Volunteers at the Table View Neighbourhood Watch (TVNW) also assisted and responded to the scene.

Laura Outhet, TVNW media liaison, says one of the volunteers received a phonecall from a family member about a young woman who was experiencing some difficulties in the water at Bloubergstrand.

Sludge removal is causing a bad odour KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels

“T

he stench is unbearable and complaining to the City of Cape Town is useless. Something needs to be

done.”

These are the words of a fuming resident in Montague Gardens Sarah Pickcard, who claims that a cloud of bad odour is hanging in the Milnerton area, allegedly coming from the Potsdam wastewater treatment works (PWWTW).

According to Pickard and other concerned residents in the area, they are uncertain what is causing the stench.

“The smell will make anyone want to pack away their lunch and go about their day. We have received no communication from the City or any other companies in surrounding areas as to what is causing the bad odour.

However, when we drive past Potsdam, it seems that this is where it’s coming from,” Pickcard says.

The City released a statement last week, saying that contractors are in the process

“Bloubergstrand is notorious for its strong rip current and epic sand bank drop off zone. Unfortunately the woman was caught in the rip zone and was quickly being washed out to sea. In this case, seconds and minutes definitely count. The TVNW member who received the phonecall quickly used the TVNW radio network to get hold of our control room and alert other volunteers as to what was happening.

Eskom is fully cognisant of the risk of corrosion of civil structures at the Koeberg Power Station, which is a result of the station being located in a corrosive environment.

This Eskom says in a statement as ongoing testing on the Koeberg containment buildings, which house the reactor and associated nuclear components, have proven the structures to be capable of withstanding the most severe accident.

“The tests comprise quarterly and annual measurements to identify any abnormal movement (such as expansions, settling,

of removing sludge stockpiled at PWWTW, and the disruption of the stockpile is causing a bad odour, as anticipated.

“The City regrets the discomfort to residents, and every effort is being made to suppress the smell while the work is underway,” the City says in their statement.

Removal of the stockpile in the sludge pond commenced on 28 January, and all sludge that could be directly loaded onto trucks was removed by 3 February.

The City says that during those six days, over 1 000 tons of sludge cake was removed from the sludge pond stockpile, and this included all stockpiled primary sludge cake.

“All the water contained in the sludge cake stockpile moved to the bottom of the pond over time, and therefore the remaining sludge in the pond was too wet to be removed by truck immediately. Further processing was required to ensure that the sludge is sufficiently dry to be transported by truck. This process is time-consuming and does release odour, which is contributing to the ongoing odour around the plant,” the City explains.

Burger.

A law enforcement marine auxiliary officer, who is a TVNW volunteer, was on patrol at the time and heard the call come over the TVNW radio network of a drowning in progress. He rushed to the beachfront to assist.

“Upon arrival he assessed the scene and made the vital decision to enter the frigid, Bloubergstrand waters. He swam against strong currents for about 300m to retrieve the young woman. A few minutes later our volunteer was joined by life guards and they instinctively entered from another direction and swam toward the distressed female. Our volunteer and the life guards simultaneously converged on the female and hauled her out of the icy sea,” Outhet says.

Odour suppression and masking have continued throughout the removal operation.

This has been ongoing since 4 February, and removal of the remaining sludge, which is expected to be fully processed/dry, began on 13 February. This should see a reduction in odours.

“It is envisaged that the pond will be completely cleaned out in approximately two weeks. Furthermore, it is also noted though that the trucks disposing the sludge do have a very strong odour and are probably the cause of some significant odour along its route to the disposal site. The plant has requested the drivers of the vehicles transporting sludge to hose the vehicles down before leaving the site, which should also further aid in reducing odours in the area,” says the City in its statement.

The City also apologised for the severe impact and inconvenience caused by the odours.

“Every effort is being made to clear the rest of the sludge that is too wet to transport as soon as possible.”

The National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) was also alerted and began prepping their watercraft and rescue teams.

“The lifeguards brought the female safely to the beach where medical treatment was initiated for non-fatal drowning symptoms, exhaustion and hypothermia,” the NSRI says in a statement.

The 24-year-old woman from Bloubergstrand was transported to hospital by Netcare 911 ambulance and she is expected to make a full recovery.

“The NSRI commends the swift reaction of the lifeguards and the law enforcement officer. Their cooperation contributed to saving the young lady from drowning.

This is the 69th person who we are aware of who has been rescued with the assistance of a pink rescue buoy.”

etc.), visual inspections to identify physical degradation (such as cracks, spalling, efflorescence) and by performing the integrated leak rate tests (ILRT) on a 10-yearly basis.

The results of the ILRTs have shown conclusively that the design functions of the containment buildings are met. The test results of the ILRT were also compared with international plants of similar design and it was found to be in-line with industry norms.

“The ILRT represents the worst case accident scenario and proves the containment buildings to be capable of withstanding the

most severe accident,” Eskom says.

The main concern to the long term system health of the containment buildings is the deterioration of the externally exposed concrete surfaces due to chloride ingress that causes reinforcement corrosion and the potential effect on the prestressing tendons.

The information from the ongoing testing, inspections and maintenance is included in the assessments being implemented as part of the work required for Koeberg’s life extension and Eskom remains confident that the issue is fully under control.

City advises of water supply disruption The City of Cape Town’s water and sanitation department will be conducting zero pressure tests on the main water supply in the Sunningdale, Blouberg, Table View and Parklands areas.

The tests took place yesterday (Tuesday 16 February) and will also be conducted tomorrow, Thursday 18 February. This will result in the disruption of water supply to these areas from 19:00 until 02:00 the following morning.

Residents are however advised to prepare, where possible, by storing water in clean, sealed containers.

“Zero pressure tests are part of the City’s roll-out of pressure management infrastructure. Advanced pressure management allows the City to reduce pressure fluctuations in the network that create stress on pipes over time.

This reduces the likelihood of leaks and bursts. The test is done to determine if there are any unmapped inflows into an area to inform the calibration of a pressure reducing valve, which will be installed at a later date,” the City said in a statement. Residents are also advised to make sure that their taps are closed during this period to prevent any water loss or water damage when the supply is restored.

Rotary Club donates packages T

he Rotary Club of Blouberg recently raised funds within 48 hours to donate 110 care packages to Milnerton Mediclinic.

This after various hospitals have put out appeals to charities within their areas, asking if they could assist with care packages, containing some treats and sustenance to help through their long shifts.

Lynne Wade from the club says during the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, healthcare workers have been working tirelessly around the clock, seven days a week.

“In Milnerton, Michelle Korevaar from Change Makers Hub (CMH) reacted to Milnerton Mediclinic’s plea and asked the local community to assist with donations. CMH is a non-profit organisation that connects people with causes who need help, catalysing change between everyday people who want to help to those who need it the most,” Wade says.

In addition, another additional 40 care packages were packed for Tygerberg Hospital as part of a joint project between the Rotary Clubs of Blouberg, Oostenberg, Bellville, Durbanville, Tygerberg

and Goodwood.

“For only R70, one care package containing a 500ml Energade, a coffee, hot chocolate, a cappuccino sachet, a packet of biscuits, a bag of jelly sweets, a bag of peanuts and raisins and some hand cream, together with a thank you note – can make a small difference to a tired healthcare worker, letting them know that we care and that we appreciate their dedication and hard work,” Wade says.

Following the success of this project, The Rotary Club of Blouberg will continue raising funds, together with CMH, in an effort to provide care packages to the healthcare workers at other hospitals.

“This month we want to donate to staff at the Brooklyn Chest Hospital, the Tygerberg Children’s Hospital ICU and the Fresenius Medical Care dialysis centre,” Wade told TygerBurger.

If anyone would like to make a donation to continue providing care packages for health workers, or to find out more about the Rotary Club of Blouberg, visit their Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/pg/rotaryclubblouberg.

SLICE OF LIFE

En toe stuur buurvrou vir my ’n foto Buurvrou het nogal daarvan gehou om gereeld ’n boksie groente uit haar tuin oor te stuur. Maar toe, skielik, stop dit, en weke lank hoor en sien ons niks. Tot Vrydag – toe stuur buurvrou ’n foto, iets wat sy in al die jare nog nooit gedoen het nie.

Wat op die foto was, was nie vir my aanvaarbaar nie. En buurvrou is toe al die tyd stilbemoerd. Ek weer was heel omgebom oor die lang relaas wat die foto vergesel. Ek kon dit eenvoudig nie glo nie.

Sy beweer Viskoekie, ons kat, vang haar hoenders. En hoe meer ek sê nee, nie óns kat nie, hoe meer hou sy vol.

Teen dié tyd is ons al twee al goed skuinsbeneuk, en die boodskappe vlieg heen en weer.

Ek vra haar toe hoeveel katte dink sy is daar in die buurt, buiten haar eie twee? En weet sy katte stap elke dag ’n paar kilometer van tuin tot tuin?

Nie so lank terug nie was daar ’n hewige polemiek oor sonde met die bure se katte. Min het ek toe geweet ek sal my vandag binne-in daardie debat bevind.

Die probleem is beide mens én kat kyk graag na die voëls in die tuin, ’n belangebotsing, dus.

Feit is, katte jag.

Hulle kan dit nie help nie. Maar, hulle vang darem ook rotte en muise. Dis waarvoor die mensdom hulle so 10 000 jaar gelede begin mak maak het.

Die volgende dag hou ek ons kat heeldag binne. En so wrintiewaar, hier teen skemer kom ’n boodskap weer van anderkant af: Nóg van haar hoenders is vandag aangeval.

Dis net daar dat my tone toe krul van plesier, want daar is die bewys – dis nie my kat wat so lief is vir haar voëls en hoenders nie.

Net om seker te maak, word sy hierdie hele week binne gehou, wat vir haar nogal erg is. Huiskatte is heel gelukkig om binne te bly as hulle nooit aan die buitewêreld blootgestel was nie. Maar in óns geval is sy gewoond aan buite wees.

En in dieselfde boodskap wil buurvrou toe weet wat ons aan die probleem gaan doen. Wel, ek sê toe maar vir haar ons sal vir ons kat sê sy mag nie die bure se voëls vang nie. Kietsie se Afrikaans is darem nie te sleg nie. En boonop sal ons haar ’n onderneming in dier voege laat onderteken. Swart op wit.

Kat se kind kry ook ’n halsband met nie een nie, maar twee klokke aangeheg sodat as sy iets wil vang, hulle haar kan hoor kom en kans het om te vlug.

Navorsing het bewys hierdie maatreël kan die vang van klein diertjies deur huiskatte met tot 41% verminder.

Wat sal ’n mens nie alles doen om tog die vrede te bewaar nie? Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned! Want so ’n foto wil ek nooit weer kry of sien nie. ’n Foto van ’n verminkte hoender wat roerloos op ’n hopie sit. . Van die os op die jas: Ons moet deesdae mooi kophou in ons “veelvlakkige” samelewing.

Ek meen, vir krag, water én die viruspandemie is daar elk ’n vlak. Dalk sal die formule KWV goed te pas kom.

In my dagboek gaan ek elke dag die vlakke aanteken om kop te hou.

Elke vlak het mos sy moets en moenies.

Elke ding het sy tyd en plek. My formule sal iets wees soos K = 1, W = 2, V = 3.

Op ’n ander dag kan dit wees K = 3, W = 4, V = 5.

Wat V = 3 betref mag ons darem nou weer skoene met oop tone en hempies sonder moue koop. En ons mag selfs ’n zol swaai en dopsteek. Dalk KWV. – Werner van Tonder

“The sweetest part of leaving home is knowing that, beyond a shadow of a doubt, you’ll always carry it with you.”

A day I was dreading the most has come.

On Saturday 23 January the last game of rugby was played at Newlands.

It wasn’t the best game from the home team, but the past 133 years have been nothing short of magical.

From seeing the likes of Corné Krige and Morne du Plessis run out to seeing the young guns of Jean-Luc du Plessis and Chris van Zyl running out of the oldest stadium in South Africa Newlands had it all.

It had tears, it had laughter, it had lots of stressful moments, but most importantly, it was the home of many memories.

It was the place where Chester Williams would break through the opposition defence on his way to the try line.

It was the place where Schalk Burger could not wait to go into “Hulk mode” and tackle everybody in his way.

It was the place where I watched my very first rugby game.

How do you say goodbye to a place that’s like home?

Newlands, thank you for being the best home anyone could have ever asked for.

You gave me memories that I’ll carry in my heart forever - from my first time as a fan, when the flag was bigger than me, to my last time sitting in the stands when I attended the funeral of Chester Williams. They say home is not a place, it is a feeling.

Every time I visited you, I

Dís kaalkop die waarheid Dankie TJ (“ ‘Dromkrappers’ probeer ook maar net oorleef”, TygerBurger 3 Februarie) vir jou reaksie op Dicky Liebenberg se skrywe (“Herwinning ’n probleem”, TygerBurger 27 Januarie).

Graag lug ek ook my opinie oor hierdie interessante onderwerp.

As iemand die verkeer reël, is hy ’n verkeersbeampte; wanneer iemand huise bou, is hy ’n bouer; wanneer hy motorfiets ry is hy outomaties ’n motorfietsryer en so kan ek aangaan tot volgende maand.

Wat presies maak hierdie mense dan so spesiaal dat hul beroep nie gebruik kan word om hulle te beskryf nie? ’n Melkman is altemit die ou wat melk bring, of hoe? Ek verstaan dat hulle dalk nie die beste beroep gekies het nie of dat hulle in daardie omstandighede ingedwing is weens ander faktore, dalk buite hul beheer, maar terwyl hulle in dromme krap, is hulle dromkrappers. Sommige van hulle het ’n ekstra titel bygekry, naamlik oorlas of selfs dief. Dit klink dalk bietjie rof, maar van die arme bloedjies dink dit goed om jou

of my drom te steel en te gebruik om al die uitgesoekte drominhoud saam te karwei.

Ek het self al twee verloor.

Dan is daar die ouens wat jou vullis in of buite jou drom uitgooi om jou swart sakke te kry. Dit is ongelukkig die realiteit van hierdie outjies.

Nie almal is sleg nie, maar ek hou nie van hulle nie weens die minderheid se gedrag.

Brackenfeller wil forum stig As Brackenfeller is ek besorg oor ons as gemeenskap.

Wat verlede jaar se gebeure by die skool betref, en die gevolglike politieke speelveld en by tye politieke slaansak wat ons as gemeenskap geword het, het dit my laat wonder waar ons stem is in al die dinge.

Wat het van die inset en stem van die gewone ou geword, die ou wat hier bly en in rus en vrede wil leef sonder die politieke geraas?

Hoewel dit blyk dat daar wel organisasies in Brackenfell bestaan vir die gemeenskap, was daar geen inset of reaksie, wat jy dit ook al wil noem. Ek kon nie vasstel wat hulle doel, funksie of verteenwoordiging is nie, dus het ek begin besin oor alternatiewe.

My vraag is, het dit nie tyd geword dat ons as gemeenskap na mekaar begin uitreik en met mekaar begin praat om ’n gemeenskapstem te kry – om inspraak te lewer daar waar dit ons alledaagse lewe en eiendom raak nie?

As u my siening deel dat ons as gemeenskap ’n stem moet ontwikkel, om inspraak te hê daar waar dit saak maak, waar dit ons raak, stuur vir my ’n e-pos na npo@avibus.co.za met u besonderhede.

Ek versoek u om hom te vra vir ’n uiteensetting van die regte van die munisipale belastingbetaler.

Sekerlik het ons ’n reg om veilig te voel, nie bedreig te voel, nie in vuil taal gevloek te word en vieslike toilette langs ons grensmure te verduur, wat ’n gesondheidsrisiko is nie.

Nie alle inwoners het manspersone om hulle by hul huise te beskerm nie. Maar die straatbewoners mag al hierdie dinge oortree. Stad Kaapstad se mense was al in my huis om die saak te bespreek. Daar het dadels van gekom.

Daar is regulasies deur die Stad vir straatbewoners geskryf. Wat het óns? Net ’n hand vol vere. Die Stad het vir hom ’n lat gepluk en dinge toegelaat wat hy in der ewigheid nie ná inperking sal kan bestuur nie – bloot omdat straatmense regte het.

Maar die jaar is verkiesingsjaar terwyl ons op ’n Zimbabwe afstuur. Dit is presies hoekom jong mense nie wil stem nie.

Ons sit met drie in die huis wat hul skouers optrek en brom oor onbekwaamhede van die owerhede. En hulle is reg.

Ons kan hulle nie kwalik neem nie, want ons kan nie hul standpunt verkeerd bewys nie.

Sê asseblief vir mnr.

Badroodien ons soek sy kommentaar oor die munisipale belastingbetaler se regte in die volgende publikasie van die TygerBurger.

Adventure athlete publishes book ESMÉ ERASMUS

D

urbanville-based adventure athlete, Jamie Marais has summited many a challenge – the latest publishing an autobiography about his adventure endeavours.

His book, Determination, his first, was published in December.

Marais (44), a corporate accounts manager, became known for his participation in extreme adventures – from summiting Table Mountain 22 times in 28 hours over two days in August 2016, almost twice the height of Everest, in support of the Sabrina Love Foundation for special needs children, to mountain biking 360km non-stop in 36 hours among the Big Five in Kariega Game Reserve in the Eastern Cape in August last year – the first and only person to do this.

He was metres away from the white rhino cow Thandi – famous for her survival of a poacher attack in March 2012 – and her young calf.

“It was fascinating that she allowed me as a human to ride up to her. I looked her in the eyes and it was as if I felt a deep connection that we were not there to harm each other, but definitely one of my scariest moments,” he says.

He also had to stop right in his tracks when faced by the massive

bull elephant Charlie, only 10 metres away.

“After the ride there was an incredible moment. Three rhinos came up right to our car, as if to say thank you. One of the rangers said he never saw that in more than 30 years.”

Marais raised almost R500 000 for rhino conservation and feeding impoverished communities with this extreme adventure.

He also summited Lions Head 12 times in only 12 hours in June 2016, climbing 5 600 vertical metres.

The most extreme, however, was when he cycled Sani Pass in Lesotho in 2018 in gale force winds and extreme weather at an altitude of 3 000m, summiting five times in 12 hours.

“I ended up hypothermic after 12 hours in freezing weather and we actually nearly ended up being stranded on the pass due to terrible weather.

“To persevere, I have a few mantras and things I focus on. I often repeat the words ‘I can, I will. I can do this, I will do this’. Its amazing how much stronger you become just by saying those words. As you say it, you hear it, and as you hear it, you believe it,” he says.

Another of his scariest moments was in 2015 when he was blown out to sea by a strong wind while pad-

dling with a stand up paddle (SUP) in Cape Town.

“The ocean was out of control. I was paddling without a wetsuit and was blown off my board a few times. I almost drowned in five metre swells, but in the end I paddled through it.”

Although his list of adventures

Canada. He went across and looked at the opportunity but decided not to pursue it.

“Despite the challenges, South Africa is really great. I came back with an appreciation for what we have here and also an awareness of the challenge we face,” he says.

“I wanted to do something that could help people believe in themselves and realise that nothing is ever too big to face and overcome,” he says.

The feedback on his book was incredible, Marais says. “It brings a message of hope and of overcoming your challenges.”

The first edition was sold out in four weeks and is now being reprinted. Ever since he has been regularly invited as motivational speaker.

He is now busy with a sequel to his book, which focuses mainly on his “Jamie Rides 4 Rhinos” mountain biking adventure in Kariega Game Reserve.

“This book will tell the story of my epic adventure, but if my first book was about finding the silver lining, this one is about taming the beast, facing your fears and making the best of your circumstances,” he says.

V The book can be ordered on his website at jamiemarais.com and will soon be available in bookshops.

Take the vaccine, urges nurse: Nurse Thembeka Goba from Karl Bremer Hospital who spent 25 days in hospital with Covid-19 at the start of the pandemic urges people to get vaccinated (when it becomes available). The mother of three developed flu-like symptoms and visited her pharmacy where she bought medication. She soon realised that this was something different. Soon after her symptoms progressed, she visited her local doctor again and was hospitalised with severe pneumonia. Goba was admitted to Tygerberg Hospital where she spent time in the intensive care unit on high-flow oxygen before being transferred to a ward. Goba made a full recovery and says she is optimistic that the vaccine will reduce her risk.

are impressive, his book is not about his achievements, but his life journey and how he learned to train his mind to always see the silver lining in every dark cloud.

“My book takes the reader on a journey and into some of the most intense, inspiring and life-changing moments I have experienced and shares the life lessons learned from each of those experiences. I also share many practical tips and tools on how people can help themselves to overcome challenges and harness their inner strength,” he says.

After experimenting with recreational drugs at about 14 years of age, his turning point came when he had a bad drug experience. “It shook me back to reality and I made the concrete decision to turn my life around for health and fitness,” he says.

“I have always been involved in adventure sports like surfing, but my greatest passion at school was road cycling.”

He won the provincial championships when he was 17 and then competed on a top ranked elite road cycling team later in life in his thirties.

His interest in extreme adventures started about five years ago when he turned 40, after he was offered an opportunity to emigrate to

Die tweede oes vir Diemersdal se Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, wat gemaak word op Nieu-Seeland se Suideiland, het hier geland om plaaslike wynliefhebbers die uitbundige geure van dié kultivar uit die Land van die Lang Wit Wolk te laat proe.

Diemersdal se eerste Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc het aan die einde van 2019 sy buiging gemaak – ’n wyn afkomstig van Marlborough, sowat 11 000 km van die Diemersdal-wynlandgoed.

Dit was juis tydens ’n besoek aan Marlborough in 2016 dat Thys Louw, eienaar-wynmaker van Diemersdal, versot geraak het op die Nieu-Seelandse sauvignon blancwyne en hy besluit het om ’n wyn te maak in dié streek onder sy Diemersdal-vaandel.

Thys het kragte saamgespan met die bekende Marlborough-wynmaker Ben Glover van Glover Family Vineyards vir die maak van die wyn.

Die druiwe vir die wyn kom van die Dillons Point-substreek, van waar Glover Family Vineyards ook hul druiwe kry.

Glover sê die samewerking met

Free antenatal care available From 13 to 21 February is Pregnancy Education Week and the City of Cape Town’s health department is encouraging women to visit their clinics for antenatal care.

“It is important that women attend antenatal care as soon as they find out they are pregnant, preferably before 14 weeks of pregnancy. This helps to ensure the pregnancy and birth is a positive experience,” said Mayco member for community services and health, Zahid Badroodien.

Antenatal care at public health clinics is free and pregnant women are encouraged to attend all antenatal visits, scheduled every four weeks to 28 weeks of pregnancy, thereafter every two weeks to 36 weeks, then weekly until the delivery.

It is important to return to the clinic immediately when experiencing any of the following symptoms: abdominal pain (not discomfort), blurred vision, liquid (amniotic fluid) leaking from the vagina, persistent headache, reduced foetal movements or vaginal bleeding. To ensure a safe pregnancy and healthy baby, it is important to eat healthy meals and to do safe physical activities.

Pregnant women should abstain from smoking, using illegal drugs and drinking alcohol.

Smoking during pregnancy increases the risk of pre-term labour, low birth weight, and birth defects of the mouth and lip (cleft palate). Smoking during, and after pregnancy also increases the risk of infant death syndrome.

The use of illegal drugs during

pregnancy increases the risk of pre-term labour, low birth weight, and developmental delays in the child.

Drinking alcohol while pregnant can harm the unborn baby, and cause birth defects known as Foetal Alcohol Syndrome Disease (FASD). When a pregnant woman drinks alcohol it goes into her bloodstream and to the unborn baby. Alcohol damages the unborn baby’s growing body and brain resulting in many types of birth defects. FASD is permanent. No alcohol for mom during pregnancy means no FASD for baby.

If you or someone you know is suffering from depression during pregnancy or after the birth of the baby, speak to the healthcare professional at your clinic or your doctor, or get help from Postnatal Depression Support SA. SMS “help” to 082 882 0072 and they will contact you.

Poppekas verruil verhoog vir radio RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

D

ie Covid-19-pandemie het nie net sakeondernemings, organisasies, skole en hospitale ’n reuseknou toegedien nie, maar ook diegene wat ander op ’n ietwat ongewone manier vermaak.

Dertien jaar gelede het Anton Treurnich, ’n boorling van Bellville, sy opvoedkundige poppekas-produksies vir ouer mense begin, maar die afgelope jaar en ’n bietjie kon hy nie dinge soos normaalweg doen nie en is besluit om sy stories vir radio aan te pas. Daar

is nou ’n 15-episode-vervolgverhaal vir radio geskryf, en dit word wyd versprei, sê Anton.

“Die alombekende pop-karakters, Umnyama en Foukids, vermaak al die afgelope 13 jaar die senior burgers van verskeie dienssentrums en tehuise dwarsoor die WesKaap.

“Covid-19 het egter ’n stokkie gesteek voor die heerlike kuiers.

“Die karakters, Piet, Helen, Thabisa en Boetie het besluit om die verhoog nou vir die mikrofoon te verruil,” verduidelik Anton.

Verskeie gemeenskapsradiostasies het ingekoop in die vervolgverhaal, getiteld Goue Jare.

Plaaslik sal luisteraars die produksies kan volg op Tygerberg 104FM, waar dit elke Vrydag van 19 Februarie om 20:15 uitgesaai sal word.

“Die Wes-Kaapse departement van maatskaplike ontwikkeling het ons destyds gevra om ’n opvoedkundige verhoogproduksie te doen waar ons aan die ouer mense hul regte op ’n praktiese manier kan uitbeeld. Ons het gevoel dat die beste manier om die ernstige inhoud oor te bring, en die groot ouderdomsverskille te bowe te kom, sal deur die gebruik van ’n poppekas te wees,” sê Anton oor die bestaansjaar van sy produksie.

Hy sê die radiovervolgverhaal word ook moontlik gemaak deur die ondersteuning van die departement sowel as die Mapula Trust.

Die poppekas het in 2008 begin. “Ons was baie senuweeagtig om te sien hoe die ouer mense dit sou ontvang. Daar was ook ’n groot groep verteenwoordigers van die departement, almal baie ernstig en belangrik.”

Hy sê die poppekas is oor die jare heen selfs beter ontvang deur die ouer mense as die groepe klein kinders.

“Daar word lekker gelag en saam gepraat.

Technology used to connect patients with loved ones Due to hospital visitations not being allowed to limit the risk of possible Covid-19 transmission, staff at Karl Bremer Hospital have come up with an innovative idea.

Here tablets are now being used to connect patients with their families. Patients can chat to their friends and family by means of a video call.

“The tablet has given the patient the opportunity to speak to and see their loved ones without any obstacles and, by doing so, there has been an optimistic response from both sides,” says Denise Barnes, assistant nursing manager.

Barnes says technology has greatly improved the way the hospital team communicates, especially during the pandemic.

“When taking into account the visiting

policy under the current regulations, not only does it protect the patient, but their loved ones too. The use of tablets within our wards has ensured continuous communication between the patient and their family at home, as being away from home and unable to see your loved ones tends to have a toll on the overall recovery of a patient, which ultimately leads to a negative bed flow within our busy units,” Barnes says.

She says the use of tablets has given patients and staff a sense of hope as they continue to fight Covid-19.

“It has definitely been a rewarding feeling to see how thankful our patients and their relatives are, and we remain hopeful that the circumstances we are living in will change in the near future,” Barnes says.

‘Drop 10’ club helps those in need

Hospital carer Mina Voster helps resident Megan Grace connect with her family while she is hospitalised.

The Tygerberg Hospital Children’s Trust’s Drop 10 membership club – a club designed for professionals who want to play an active role in supporting the trust in its work, and positively impacting the lives of children cared for at the hospital – is still being well supported after being launched a year ago.

Prof Johan Smith, founder, says by joining the club, he and his peers are able to make a measurable impact and drive change for the better.

“Joining the club is a no-brainer for me; by donating a portion of my income to a cause that I am already involved with, and because the trust is a registered public benefit organisation, I am able to claim back benefits from Sars and directly see the impact of my donation in the work that the trust does,” says Smith.

The club is a programme for professionals who contribute a portion of their annual salary, and in exchange receive a Section 18A certificate for tax relief. This

is an annual membership whereby the member may participate with other club members in specific campaigns.

The club is unique to the trust whereby members are afforded influence in supporting the trust’s work far beyond just making a donation, a spokesperson for the trust says.

“The purpose of the club is to encourage professionals to play an active role in social initiatives beyond just monetary support to a cause, but actively engaging and participating in social upliftment.

“The member’s donation and effort through the membership club goes towards the care of 60% of the province’s children who fall within the hospital’s care footprint, the hundreds of children actually visiting our hospital and its school and the impact we are able to bring to the communities of people that support them,” the spokes­person says.

WOMEN’S SPORT: GROWTH NEEDED

Former pro uplifting female footballers REMO ANDREWS

T Reza Levy. in action in the Junior Max category..

Scintillating start to season The 2021 Western Cape Rotax Max Challenge karting season exploded to life on a typically searing Cape February day thankfully punctuated by an occasional breeze at Killarney on Saturday 13 February.

The action was just as hot on track in a day of contrasts that saw both a bit of domination as well as some cracking fights for glory through the afternoon. Senior Max was surely the race of the day as Andrew Rackstraw took the overall win without winning a heat.

In a dramatic afternoon, pole man and South African champion Tate Bishop exited the first race early, leaving Jason Coetzee to storm to the win from Rackstraw and Kyle Visser. Bishop then took advantage of a fraught five-way fight ahead of him to move up from the back and pounce for the lead and make off for the second race win over Kyle Visser, while Rackstraw and Storm Lanfear pulled a last lap move on Charl Visser for third and fourth.

Bishop then took care of early leaders Rackstraw and Coetzee to make off for another heat win in the final, but Charl Visser’s day went from bad to worse when he exited after coming from behind to second to release Rackstraw, Kyle Visser and Lanfear after Coetzee was stripped of third for his part in Visser’s demise. That meant that Rackstraw took the day from Kyle Visser, Lanfear, the troubled Charl Visser and Coetzee.

It was a different matter in DD2, where Joseph Oelz came, saw and conquered on his DD2 debut for his return to karting following a year away. Joseph put it on pole position and steamed away to a trio of race wins, with a fastest lap each time over reigning South African champion Sebastian Boyd. Behind them, Masters winner Conor Hughes kept the battling Jared Jordan, Andrew Thomas and Michael Jordan at bay for third overall, ahead of a splendid dice between Steve Beaumont, newcomer Rafe Tayler, Andre Steenkamp and rookie Gil Simoes.

It was a case of more domination when WP Mini champion Reza Levy put a season of quietly learning the bigger class to great use as he troubled the Senior frontrunners en route to a compelling high school Junior Max win. The constantly improving Matthew Wadeley however left Killarney with a new Junior Max lap record as he made Levy work for his final win.

Wadeley also held Ethan Stier off for second overall with two heat seconds to Stier’s one with Jaden Jacobs fourth from Joshua Smit and Joaquin de Oliveira, both of whom later concentrated on their Mini Max afternoons.

De Oliveira had a brilliant day in senior primary Mini Max as he made off up front to deliver a clean sweep with three fastest laps too.

He left his rivals to fight it out among themselves as the top five each had a turn on the podium through the day in a great start to the Mini Max season. Out of town visitor Erich Heystek improved through the day to deliver a fine come from behind third in heat 2, before going one better to take second for the day by a point from Joshua Smit and another ever-improving local Jordon Wadeley, Keagen Beaumont, Jude Stuart, Ethan Deacon and Oliver Roach.

While those three races saw domination, junior primary Micro Max was on the other hand once

again most entertaining. Kegan Martin overcame Dale Hobbs to win the first race but hit trouble in race 2, before bouncing back to pass Hobbs early and drive off to the final heat win. That was not enough to stoop Hobbs from taking the day from Martin, while Aiden Beaumont overcame a tight battle through the day to beat Eric Norman to third. They came home ahead of a most entertaining day long wrought between Matthew Roach, Matthew Chiwara and Siyabonga Ntuli for fifth.

Michael Danks meanwhile laid early claim to the 2021 WP baby Bambino title with yet another dominant pole, triple race wins and a triple fastest lap run en route to the win for the day. Impressive Jozi rookie visitor Kayde Cornofsky diced all the way with Siyabonga Ntuli on their way to second and third. And John Norman pinched a podium third in the final heat en route to fourth from Ruan Lewis and Liam Wharton.

The opening round of the Northern Regions Rotax Max Challenge is next up at the Formula K Raceway on 6 March, before the second round of the KZN regionals at iDube on 14 March. Then follows the first 2021 Rotax Max National back at Killarney on 26 March 2021. All races remain scheduled to continue without spectators under lockdown regulations.

idea to Cape Town. “My primary goal is to encourage women empowerment through the sport. We want to nurture talent but also promote a healthy overall lifestyle. Whether you are a great footballer already or are just starting we have something to offer everyone,” she said.

This ethos is very much in line with her father’s original idea. “Our vision is to reach as many young potential female footballers as we can and to provide them with an education other than academic, such as life skills, entrepreneurial skills, and financial planning skills, to create a culture of equality, empowerment and hope for a brighter future for female athletes in South Africa.”

Bantwana will have their first tournament at Fives Futbol at Bayside Mall in Blouberg on Sunday 28 February.

he Bantwana College nonprofit company launched in Cape Town on Sunday 14 February, at Fives Futbol at Bayside Mall in Blouberg.

Bantwana was founded by Cape Town native, Theo Buttress in Gauteng with the aim of improving the development of women’s football in the country.

A former professional footballer in the 80s, Buttress recognised a lack of football development in women’s football when his three daughters took an interest in the game but found that there was a lack of opportunity for them.

Buttress said, “All three of my daughters love the game, we saw it as a family activity we all could enjoy. My wife is also an avid footballer so when I found so little opportunity and resources for them to play the game regularly I felt it was my duty to do something about it.”

When his oldest daughter, Angelique Buttress, moved back to Cape Town after completing her Sports Science degree at the University of Pretoria, she decided to expand her father’s Angelique, Maizie and Theo Buttress.

Krieketkompetisie skuif SAREL BURGER Somersport-ampsdraers bly hoopvol dat wedstryde en byeenkomste wél nog later vanjaar afgehandel sal kan word.

Ná alle sport op amateur- en skolevlak vir die res van die huidige somer afgelas is, word vertrou dat mededingende sport tog weer met die aanvang van die volgende somer in Oktober sal kan plaasvind.

Indien die huidige afname in aktiewe viruspandemie-gevalle voortduur en terselfdertyd gehoor gegee word aan die voorgeskrewe protokol, behoort somersport-aktiwiteite oor ’n paar maande te realiseer.

Die WP Noordelike Stadsgebiede Skolekrieket-streekunie (WPNS) het reeds besluit om vier van sy vyf kompetisies wat hierdie kwartaal sou plaasvind, na die begin van die volgende somer (die vierde kwartaal) te verskuif.

Dit sal onder meer matrikulante, wat nog vir oulaas wedstryde vir

hul skoolspanne wil speel, die geleentheid daartoe gee.

Buiten die WPNS se Saterdag-ligakompetisies vir o.19A-, o.15A- en o.14A-spanne sal die Sammy Bloch/Medicare Apteke-uitklopkompetisie op weeksdae vir skole se eerste spanne hopelik almal in die vierde kwartaal aangebied word. Net die kompetisie vir skole se o.19B-spanne sal verval. Ook die jaarlikse ses-aan-’n-kant-toernooi wat vir Oktober geskeduleer was, sal nie vanjaar plaasvind nie.

Afgesien van hierdie kwartaal se vier aangeskuifde kompetisies na Oktober sal die o.15- en o.14-spanne se weekdag-uitklopkompetisies ook dan plaasvind. Maar, aangesien die vierde kwartaal ’n kort sportkwartaal is voor die jaareindeksamen begin en om ’n opeenhoping van wedstryde te vermy, sal skole in die WPNS-gebied binnekort genader word met die voorstel dat van die wedstryde reeds in September afgehandel word.
