Reis na gister Besoekers aan die Ysterplaat­lugmagbasis kon die afgelope naweek die Avro Shackleton MK 3 van nader besigtig. Die langafstand maritieme patrollie­vliegtuig was Saterdag vir die publiek oopgestel vanaf 10:00 tot 12:00. Sowat 600 nuuskieriges het van die geleentheid gebruik maak om die tuig te betree. Hier by die noagvliegtuig staan oud­militêre veterane, wat elk ’n storie van die Shackleton het om te vertel. Hulle is van links Barry Pieterse, Henry “Pottie” Potgieter, Chris de Wit, Gert “Buks” Bronkhorst en Lionel Ashbury. Volledige berig op bladsy 9. FOTO:RICHARD ROBERTS

VIDEO GOES VIRAL: DE GRENDEL HIGH LEARNER FILMED VIOLENTLY SLAPPING ANOTHER DURING FIGHT OUTSIDE SCHOOL

Viral video of violence RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

A

video showing two De Grendel High School learners fighting outside the school premises, with one slapping the other numerous times during the heated argument, is currently doing the rounds on social media. A copy of the video, which appears to have been filmed on a cellphone, was shared by a resident on the Brooklyn Innie Kaap Facebook page on Thursday 28 September. The

resident described the event as “shocking” and “a disgrace” to De Grendel High School. “Hope they do something about this bullying,” the concerned resident wrote. The video also elicited several reactions – a total of 47 comments, to be precise, within the first two days. The video, in which one girl is seen slapping another three times, also contains foul language. One resident confirmed, however, that the incident occurred some months ago and that action has been taken against those in-

volved. “She appeared in court and was sentenced accordingly,” the person wrote. Last week Paddy Attwell, spokesperson for the Western Cape Department of Education, confirmed this. “The incident allegedly occurred in March. The school dealt with the matter in terms of its code of conduct. “Our information is that the alleged victim has laid an assault charge with the police,” he says. Attwell says the department views bullying in a very serious light.

“The consequences of bullying can be dire. “The department applies a range of measures to deal with bullying, summarised by education; training; advocacy; support; policies and procedures, as well as district programmes,” Attwell says. In a statement issued last week around bullying on social media, Western Cape minister for education, Debbie Schäfer, said the recent reports of bullying, both in the Western Cape and across the country, are highly disturbing.
