DURBANVILLE: GESTEELDE GOED GEVIND

mense kos gegee – dít ondanks herhaalde versoeke van die Stad Kaapstad en die plaaslik raadslid, Theresa Uys, asook Mould Empower Serve (Mes), dat mense verantwoordelik moet gee nie en nie goed aan straatmense moet uitdeel nie.

Toe TygerBurger verlede Woensdag daar aankom, het sowat agt straatmense daar rondgesit – sommige op stoele, een het op ’n matras gelê.

Hulle was kwaad omdat hulle sê hulle is skaars twee ure gegun om hul besittings bymekaar te maak vandat kennisgewings aan hulle beteken is, voor drie vullislorries kort voor skemer daar opgedaag het.

“Mevrou, hulle wou nie eens dat ek my tandeborsel wat op die grond geval het, optel nie. Ons het heelnag niks geslaap nie. Law enforcement het ons ge-violate; hulle het geen respek vir ons gehad nie,” het een vrou gekla, terwyl ’n ander gesê het hulle het selfs haar chroniese medikasie gevat.

“Elkeen se huisie was netjies; die een man het die kerk se parking se rand vir hulle wit geverf.

“Maar hulle wou nie eens dat ons ons paar besittings bymekaar maak nie. Jy was lucky as jy ’n kombers kon gryp. Dit was ’n lelike bakleiery en dít op kerkgrond. Hulle het selfs die hoender gevat wat ons die aand aan ’n ‘saamtafel’ wou eet,” het sy gesê.

Een van die straatmense, Nigel Beukes (32), het gesê sy identiteitsdokument, wat hy net die vorige week gekry het nadat hy al drie jaar lank sukkel om dit te kry, is ook saam met sy besittings opgelaai.

“Ek het net die klere aan my lyf oor,” het hy gesê.

owat 16 opslaanstrukture, waarvan die meeste tente met aanbousels, is eindelik verlede Dinsdagmiddag en Woensdagoggend verwyder langs die Telkom-gebou op die hoek van Kerkstraat en Durbanville-rylaan – net om die hoek van die Durbanville-polisiekantoor.

Die plakkery in tente by die perseel tot reg voor die All Saints Anglikaanse kerk het die afgelope maande talle klagtes deur inwoners ontketen.

Dié optrede het gevolg ná klagtes van inbrake en diefstal, wat na bewering deur van die straatmense gepleeg is. WhatsApp-boodskappe hieroor is wyd gedeel op buurtwagte en gemeenskapsgroepe se sosialemedia-platforms.

In nog ’n verwante voorval is ’n vrou met ’n twee-jarige dogtertjie by die nabygeleë bushalte met ’n mes gedreig toe een van die straatmense haar van haar handsak wou beroof.

Tydens die optrede is gesteelde goed in die besit van een van die straatmense gevind en kon hy met ’n inbraak verbind word. Twee ander straatmense is ook vir uitstaande lasbriewe aangekeer.

Sommige van die straatmense het vir byna ’n jaar min of meer onverstoord langs die Telkom-gebou gekampeer.

Die getalle het aangegroei tydens die Covid-19-inperking en verskeie weldoeners het hul harte oopgemaak en met oorgawe gegee – onder meer matrasse, tente en selfs sitkamerstelle ... tot groot frustrasie van meeste inwoners. Ander weer het weekliks met kospotte daar stilgehou en die straat-

Book sales resume The popular book sales of the Friends of Bellville Library can finally resume, with nice finds and holiday reads at bargain prices.

Two “flash sales” take place in the foyer of the Library Centre in Carel van Aswegen Street from 10 to 12 December, and 17 to 19 December, during library hours. All hardbacks sell for R10 and paperbacks are R5 each, and the wide selection includes biographies, recipe books, history and local interest, and relaxing summer reads. Covid safety protocols will be strictly observed, with additional hand sanitiser available. Reserved parking slots for library users are now available at the library. More information from Ilze Swart on 082 666 9758.

Richard Bosman, uitvoerende direkteur van veiligheid en sekuriteit, het by navraag gesê die Stad se eenheid vir ontheemde mense kon weens die verklaarde ramptoestand nie optree teen die straatmense by dié spesifieke perseel nie, ondanks talle klagtes oor antisosiale en misdadige gedrag.

“Weens die onlangse toename in misdaad soos inbrake, diefstal uit motorvoertuie, straatrooftogte en ander misdade het die Stad se wetstoepassingsdepartement in samewerking met die polisie by die perseel opgetree,” het Bosman gesê.

“Sommige van die gesteelde goed is op die perseel gevind. ’n Verdagte is in hegtenis geneem vir huisbraak in die omgewing nadat die gesteelde goed by hom gekry is.

“Die verdagte het ook laat blyk dat die meeste gesteelde goed wat by die perseel

aankom na die taxistaanplek geneem word, waar dit verkoop of elders geneem word,” het Bosman gesê.

Nog twee mans is in hegtenis geneem ingevolge uitstaande lasbriewe vir misdaad.

“Die eenheid het al die protokol gevolg tydens die operasie met die polisie. Kennisgewings is op hulle beteken om die perseel te ontruim en hulle is in kennis gestel dat dit sal lei tot verdere optrede indien hulle nie daaraan voldoen nie,” het Bosman gesê.

Volgens hom sal die eenheid help om enige van die straatmense wat wil, te vervoer na ’n plek van veiligheid, ingevolge die Stad se maatskaplike ontwikkelingsprogramme.

“Dis ’n werklikheid dat straatmense weens verskeie faktore terugkeer na die plek waar hulle gebly het. Enige anti-sosiale gedrag moet ook by die polisie aangemeld

Hierdie hoop los goed is bymekaar gemaak ná die optrede van die Stad Kaapstad se wetstoepassingsdepartement in samewerking met die polisie.

word. Wat misdaad betref, wil ons inwoners ook aanmoedig om klagte by die polisie aanhangig te maak.

“Die Stad se wetstoepassingsdepartement het die verantwoordelikheid om op klagtes oor misdaad te reageer en met die polisie saam te werk,” het hy gesê.

“Mense moet egter ook daarvan bewus wees dat ons nie straatmense in nagskuilings en ander akkommodasie kan indwing nie. Ons wil mense ontmoedig om enigiets soos klere, kos, toiletware of geld aan straatmense uit te deel. Dit kan hulle juis aanmoedig om op straat te bly en om enige maatskaplike hulp van die hand te wys.

“Mense moet liewer skenkings maak aan geregistreerde nagskuilings, veilige plekke vir straatmense of organisasies wat met straatmense werk,” het hy gesê.

Die perseel wat tevore vol bousels en tente was, is nou verlate.

Die meeste van die besittings van die straatmense wat al bykans die afgelope jaar in tente langs Durbanvilleweg voor ’n kerk gekampeer het, is verlede Dinsdag en Woensdag verwyder. Hier sit van die straatmense met van hul oorblywende besittings, (van links) Cleopatra Hopley, ’n vrou van Scottsville wat anoniem wou bly en Dina Grootboom (op matras).

Illustreerder stap ompad na wenpad ESMÉ ERASMUS

’n

Vryskut-illustreerder van Durbanville – die man wat die gesig gegee het aan die bekroonde kinderboekreekse, die Agent Snoet- en Cowboy Koekemoerreekse, het met ’n ompad gestap na sy suksesvolle loopbaan.

Alistair Ackermann (43) van Durbanville, wat die tweede boek geïllustreer het in die Ouma Hester-reeks vir NB-uitgewers, Ouma Hester en die Arnosterfant, wat onlangs gepubliseer is, was onseker wat om met sy lewe te doen ná matriek, maar sy liefde vir teken het gelukkig die oorhand gekry.

Ackermann het in 1995 aan die Hoërskool Brackenfell gematrikuleer.

“Ek was in daardie stadium onseker wat ek wou doen as beroep en het verskillende werke gedoen – onder meer kunsklasse gegee, selfs by McDonalds gewerk vir ’n paar jaar ... ha-ha-ha, ja! En in dieselfde tyd IT gedoen,” sê hy laggend.

“Ek het nie ná skool gaan swot nie, aangesien daar nie iets was wat my aandag getrek het nie. Ek het wel ’n paar kursusse geloop in sagteware vir grafiese ontwerp. Onthou, in daardie jare was digitale werk ’n nuwerige ding,” sê hy.

Hy het onder meer ook tot onlangs vir tien jaar klas gegee in basiese grafiese ontwerp by die Stellenbosch Academy of Design & Photography.

“Hoewel ek my hele lewe lank lief is vir teken, het ek eers in 2001 besluit om illustrasie as beroep te beoefen. Ek het dag en nag gewerk om ’n portefeulje bymekaar te sit en dit aan verskillende uitgewers gestuur met die hoop om ’n deurbraak in die bedryf te

maak,” sê hy.

LAPA-uitgewers het hom kort daarna gekontak om François Bloemhof se Agent Snoet en die Botterdiamant te illustreer.

“Dit was die beste dag van my lewe en die begin van my loopbaan as vryskut-illustreerder,” sê hy.

Sy talent het sommer van meet af aandag getrek. Hy en François Bloemhof het ’n CP Hoogenhout-toekenning ontvang vir kinderliteratuur in 2002/2003 vir dié boek.

“Ek het ook al drie ATKV-Woordveertjies ontvang vir Agent Snoet en die Groen Genugtig, Cowboy Koekemoer van die Klein Karoo en Cowboy Koekemoer van die Klein Karoo en die Seerower van Watsenaam.

“Ek en Francois Bloemhof het vyf Agent Snoet-boeke saam gedoen. Ek het ook aan vier Cowboy Koekemoerboeke saam met Henry Ferreira gewerk en het onlangs aan Janie Oosthuysen se Ouma Hester-boeke begin werk,” sê hy.

“Tussenin het ek ook aan ’n Kinderbybel gewerk, wat Susan Goosen saamgestel het, en dan is daar ’n klomp ander kinderboeke en opvoedkundige boeke wat in skole gebruik word,” brei hy uit.

Op ’n vraag van TygerBurger sê hy dis onmoontlik om ’n gunsteling te kies – “elkeen was vir my lekker. Agent Snoet was heerlik om te doen omdat ek kans gekry het om ’n bietjie James Bond te speel”.

“Cowboy Koekemoer was weer lekker want ek is my hele lewe mal oor cowboys en om ’n kameelperd te teken wat allerhande snaakse goed doen, was baie pret,” sê hy.

“Ouma Hester was weer lekker want ek hou baie van avontuurverhale met over the top-voertuie en villains.

“Dis regtig moeilik om te kies, aangesien

“Ek het lank eers potloodsketse gedoen voor ek dit op die rekenaar ingekleur het, maar deesdae is alles sommer net digitaal.”

ek regtig my hart en siel in elke projek sit – selfs Alistair al moet ek proefbuise en Ackermann, ’n bunsenbranders vir vryskut-illuskoolboeke teken,” sê streerder, met hy. die eerste Met sy eerste Ouma twee Ouma Hester-boek in die reeks Hester-boeke het hy die illustrasie in die reeks. oorgeneem by die oorspronklike illustreerder, Alex van Houwelingen (35), nadat laasgenoemde op 5 April vanjaar aan kanker oorlede is.

“Ek het ongelukkig nooit die voorreg gehad om vir Alex te ontmoet nie, maar dink dit was vir ons almal in die bedryf ’n groot verlies toe hy oorlede is.

“Al het jy iemand nooit ontmoet nie, voel dit tog soms asof jy hulle deur hul werk ken,” sê hy.

“Alex se karakters was pret om te teken en ek is mal oor hul ontwerp. Dit was ook lekker om in ’n styl te teken wat anders is as wat ek gewoonlik doen. Die uitdaging was en is om by sy styl te hou, veral as daar nuwe karakters geskep moes word,” sê hy.

Die eerste boek in die reeks, Ouma Hester en die Getawaykar, is op 10 Julie vanjaar gepubliseer. Ouma Hester en die Arnosterfant is in Oktober gepubliseer.

Ackermann werk tans aan die illustrasies vir die derde boek in die reeks, Ouma Hester en die Dreadnought, wat in April 2021 gepubliseer word. “My styl is êrens tussen semirealisties en cartoony, afhangend van die

projek. Disney en Dreamworks se animasiestyle het ’n groot rol gespeel in hoe ek teken, asook sekere comic book-kunstenaars.

“Ek het lank eers potloodsketse gedoen voor ek dit op die rekenaar ingekleur het, maar deesdae is alles sommer net digitaal.

“As ek dink hoe ek begin het om in potlood, ink en waterverf boeke te doen en bladsye oor en oor moes doen as daar foute insluip, is ek vandag tog te dankbaar vir die undo-knoppie,” sê hy.

Art material needed Durbanville Children’s Home plans an art exhibition in March next year, where the artwork painted by children of the home will be auctioned. However, to make this event success­ful the home needs donations of art material, such as canvas (sizes A4, A3 and A2) and paint.

First men-only health centre opens A

brand new health centre exclusively aimed at serving men, has recently opened its doors in Cape Town.

The Metro Men’s Health Centre was officially opened on Monday 30 November at the Karl Bremer Hospital.

The facility, the first of its kind in Cape Town, aims to empower boys and men to lead healthy lives and will be a one-stop shop for wellness and chronic conditions screenings, HIV prevention interventions, treating sexually transmitted diseases, and offering medical male circumcision, the Western Cape health department says.

Dr Saadiq Kariem, chief of operations at the department, has encouraged men to put their health first, emphasising the importance of men’s health and its impact on society. “I really want to appeal to all men to prioritise their health. I encourage all men to make use of this facility. It is open to all men, as well as young men. You are all welcome to make use of this facility,” says Kariem.

Boys who are aged 15 to 18 years can also access the facility, but they will need a

guardian to accompany them.

Juanita Arendse, northern Tygerberg health services director, has welcomed families and men from around the city to make use of the men’s health centre based in Bellville.

“This project was birthed in the northern Tygerberg sub-structure, but we recognise the broader need and will be serving men from anywhere in the metro, that is why we have named it the Metro Men’s Health Centre,” Arendse says.

Some of the services offered at no cost include health education and promotion; wellness screening; chronic disease screening; voluntary medical male circumcision and aftercare treatment; HIV counselling and testing; condom education and distribution, as well as STI treatment and education.

V The health centre is open Monday to Friday from 07:00 until 16:00. Call or send a please call me to 079 530 2593 or use WhatsApp or SMS by sending the word “HI” between 08:00 and 15:30 from Monday to Friday. A healthcare worker will return your call to book your appointment.

Die Skapie-klas (2 tot 3 jaar) se kinders was by tye baie verward oor die opgewondenheid, maar baie bly om ’n klein geskenkie te ontvang.

Blitsbok wil Kerspartytjie hou AVRIL FILLIES ’n Kersparty waar hamburgers en koeldrank aan 500 kinders van Klipheuwel, naby Durbanville, uitgedeel gaan word, word beplan vir voor 20 Desember.

Die Kersparty word moontlik gemaak deur die Blitsbok en boorling van Klipheuwel, Angelo Davids, en sy Angelo Davids-Stigting, want hy wil terugploeg in sy gemeenskap.

Volgens Henri Brand, direkteur van die stigting, sal die kinders ook gelukspakkies ontvang en wil die hele gemeenskap van Klipheuwel

betrek word. Daarom sal die ouer garde ook ’n kospakkie ontvang om hulle in die feestyd te help.

“Die Covid-19-pandemie het almal geraak, want nie alleen is werkers afgelê nie, maar daar was ook nie altyd geld om kos op die tafel te sit nie.

“Die stigting, wat ’n organisasie is sonder winsbejag, wil probeer om die inwoners van Klipheuwel se gees in die feestyd te lig.

“Ons kan dit net moontlik maak met die hulp van skenkers en indien jy ’n bydrae kan maak, sal ons dit waardeer,” sê Brand.

Gary van Loggerenberg, betrokke

by die o.16-rugbyspan by die Hoërskool Stellenberg in Bellville, het sy hulp aangebied en sal deur radioonderhoude op Heart FM probeer om nóg geld in te samel om die kospakkies en Kersparty moontlik te maak.

“Angelo was ’n leerder en rugbyspeler by die skool en ondanks sy sukses op die rugbyveld sedert hy die skool verlaat het, het hy nooit vergeet waarvandaan hy kom nie.

Hy kom kuier gereeld by die skool en help in sy gemeenskap.”

Drie geslagte vroue stal saam hul kuns uit ESMÉ ERASMUS

Die drie geslagte is (van links) Danielle Jordaan, Ilse Kleyn (Jordaan) en Delene Kleyn met haar worshond, Liela.

D

rie geslagte kunstenaars – ’n ouma, dogter en kleindogter – het ’n droom bewaarheid om saam ’n kunsuitstalling van hul uiteenlopende kuns te hou.

Delene Kleyn (71), haar dogter, Ilse Jordaan (49) – wat onder haar nooiensvan Kleyn skilder, en kleindogter, Danielle Jordaan (24), het van 20 tot 22 November saam ’n uitstalling van hul kuns in die Greyton Art Walk gehou.

“Dit was my droom om saam met my dogter en kleindogter ’n kunsuitstalling te hou; dis nou bewaarheid,” sê Delene. Sy werk by die nie-winsgewende organisasie Shiloh Synergy in Brackenfell, waar sy die projekleier is van die “Back to School”-projek en die “Gifts of Grace”-skryfbehoefteprojek by behoeftige skole.

“Dis my roeping om met kinders en hulpbehoewendes te werk, so ek skilder net in my vrye tyd,” sê sy.

Delene, wat by haar dogter in Proteahoogte bly, verf al van haar kinderjare af en hou veral van stillewes. Sy het onlangs ook begin om dierelewe te skilder en geniet dit baie, sê sy.

“My laaste skildery was van ’n tier. As diereliefhebber is ek bekommerd oor wilde diere wat besig is om uit te sterf. Dis hoekom ek die skildery van ’n tier ‘Facing extinction’ genoem het. Ek wou ’n boodskap oordra,” sê sy.

Haar dogter, Ilse, het die polisiediens in 2006 as kaptein ná 16 jaar verlaat “toe die Here haar geroep het om voltyds as professionele kunstenaar te skilder”, sê sy.

“Sy het dan ook grootliks die profetiese kunsbeweging in Suid-Afrika aangevuur. Il-

se skilder profetiese werke met Bybelse temas – dít wat God haar gee om Sy storie te vertel.

“Aan die begin van 2020 het sy duidelik gehoor sy moet die wapenrusting vanuit die Bybel verf. Dit het sy toe in ’n reeks van 21 skilderye gedoen.

“Al die diere in haar skilderye het met temas uit die Bybel te doen, en dra ’n sterk boodskap oor,” sê Delene.

Kinderhuis deur vrou gelei ESMÉ ERASMUS Die huidige waarnemende bestuurder van die Durbanville-kinderhuis, Johanna Strauss, is vanaf 1 Desember aangestel as die nuwe bestuurder van die kinderhuis.

Strauss, voorheen bestuurder van bemarking en fondswerwing, het die afgelope sewe maande as tussentydse bestuurder diens gedoen nadat die vorige bestuurder se dienste skielik beëindig is.

Jan Slabbert, wie se dienste op 23 Ju-

nie ná ’n tugverhoor beëindig is, is in Januarie vanjaar in die pos aangestel nadat die vorige hoof, Rudolf Bezuidenhout, op 10 Mei verlede jaar aan ’n hartaanval gesterf het.

“Bezuidenhout is ’n passievolle mens met meer as 10 jaar ervaring in kindersorgdienste. Daarbenewens het sy 20 jaar bestuurservaring,” lui ’n mediaverklaring deur Louise Coetzee, huidige bestuurder van bemarking en fondswerwing by die kinderhuis.

“Sy het die afgelope 10 jaar in haar hoedanigheid as bestuurder van bemarking en fondswerwing by die kinderhuis suksesvolle korporatiewe vennootskappe beding, asook effektiewe bemarkingsveldtogte aangepak,” sê Coetzee.

“Sy het in haar tyd as tussentydse bestuurder by die kinderhuis ’n sterk verhouding met die personeel en die kinders opgebou,” sê sy.

Op die vraag wat haar dryf, het Strauss gesê sy kan in haar nuwe hoedanigheid haar passie uitleef om met kinders te werk.

“My een-tot-een gesprekke met hulle, hul bereidwilligheid om hul probleme met my te bespreek en hul suksesse te deel, was ’n groot seën.

“Ek weet dat ek waarde kan toevoeg tot die organisasie en die kinders se lewe,” sê Strauss. Sy is tans met verlof, maar TygerBurger beoog om in die nuwe jaar ’n volledige onderhoud met Strauss te voer.

V Kontak Johanna Strauss by jstrauss@durbanvillekinderhuis.org.za met navrae oor hoe om betrokke te raak.

Johanna Strauss

langs na Tuine in Kaapstad getrek het, het kuns studeer aan die Ruth Prowse School of Art in Kaapstad. Sy bied tans werksessies by koffiewinkels en restaurante, ook in Durbanville, aan en leer mense met koffie verf.

“Mense geniet dit baie en vind dit baie pret. Dis soos om met waterverf te werk. Danielle doen kontemporêre kuns,” sê Delene.

“Dit was kosbaar vir ons om saam uit te stal. Dit sal seker nie die laaste keer wees nie; ons het dit baie geniet,” sê sy.

Funds needed for centre in D’ville ESMÉ ERASMUS

T

hey say it takes a village to raise a child, but by buying a brick for R200 the whole community of Durbanville and surrounds can take part in “raising” the vulnerable children in Fisantekraal.

The Father’s Heart Community Development, an orphan and vulnerable child care organisation working in the community of Fisantekraal since early 2019, wants to buy a piece of land of 6 000 m² in Boabab Street from Garden Cities to build a multi-purpose community centre.

They have already managed to raise R250 000, thanks to generous donations, of the R500 000 needed to buy the land. By selling bricks at R200 in a competition with grand prizes they hope to raise the outstanding R250 000.

According to Jill Carolisse, co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO) of The Father’s Heart Community Development, they urgently need more space to accommodate all the children.

The organisation, which currently leases premises in Fisantekraal, offers support and parent training to the foster mothers of about 25 children in Fisantekraal, an afterschool service to children, as well as a mentorship programme to about 40 young boys.

“We have to run the mentorship programme on the streets in Fisantekraal, because the space at our current premises is limited,” she says.

“Currently we have 28 children in our afterschool programme – 25 of whom are from foster families and seven foster mothers we work with.

“There is an eighth mother we are assisting, but her children haven’t formally been contracted in on our programmes as yet as we cannot accommodate her five children at our premises due to Covid-19 regulations,” she says.

Children are assisted with their homework in the afterschool centre.

The organisation also offers a leadership programme for adults and teens. “About 50 people have benefited from this so far,” she says.

For a boy (13), who joined the programme earlier this year, it has been life-changing.

“He has never been to school, but has such a hunger for learning. Our tutors started working with him and within a day or two he was writing his name and has now started writing sentences and is learning to read.

“The absolute joy on his face when he first wrote his name was indescribable,” Carolisse says.

“We also provided him with books and resources to practise at home. He is always the first child there in the afternoon, and has become my husband’s little assistant. It has

been amazing to see his confidence grow, his aggression with the world recede – anger is often a result of the trauma they experience – and the respectful way in which he now engages with girls,” she says.

“Currently, we are having to turn children away because we just don’t have the space to accommodate them.

“Our soccer programme is growing every week, but there are no facilities in Fisantekraal, so we’re forced to play on the ground outside our offices,” she says.

The organisation already has prominent corporate companies involved in the project.

“We have well established architects and quantity surveyors who are providing their skills pro bono. Among them is Power Con-

struction, which will build the centre,” she says.

“We also have the backing of one of the largest brands in South Africa to help us get all the materials for the building donated, and other trusts, foundations and investors both here and abroad who are invested in the project,” she says.

“It’s a very frustrating situation because we have everything in place, we just need more space!”

The organisation started fundraising for the land at the beginning of the year, but due to the Covid-19 pandemic all funds went to food aid projects.

To raise the outstanding R250 000 for the land, they are now presenting a “Buy a Brick” competition.

If you purchase one brick at the cost of R200, your name will be entered into a draw to win fabulous, sponsored prizes. The first prize is an Apple watch, the second prize is R5 000 cash and the third prize is R2 500 cash.

The live draw will take place on 22 December.

“Any corporates or foundations or organisations that would like to partner with us outside of the competition, we are PBO certified and so able to issue 18A certificates for any donation made,” Carolisse says.

“So this Christmas, please consider purchasing a brick for just R200 and giving a gift to the thousands of orphaned and vulnerable children of Fisantekraal – the gift of a brighter future that will keep on giving for many generations to come,” she urges.

To purchase a brick at R200, you can visit the website to pay via Snapscan or on Paypal options.

Bellville GPF hou geselligheid Die Bellville-gemeenskapspolisiëringsforum (BGPF) het verlede Donderdag (3 Desember) sy jaarlikse buurtwaggeselligheid gehou. Vanjaar was daar nie soos ander jare ’n rits toekennings nie omdat buurtwagte vir

lang tydperke nie kon patrolleer nie en “deur ’n moeilike tyd is”, het Gerda Gerber van die BGPF gesê.

Nielen de Klerk het mense gevra om hul maskers vlugtig vir ’n foto af te haal.

Van die buurtwaglede wat die BGPF se geleentheid bygewoon het is (agter van links) Johan Fritz (Oakdale), Marius Coetzer, Marius van Vuuren (Bo-Oakdale) en Maroline van Vuuren (Bo-Oakdale).

Voor sit Natasha Groenewald (LPRgroep), Adilia Kotze (Boston), Sean Smit (Boston) en Sjaak Bok (De La Haye).

The members of the winning four ball were (from left) Alan Rudnick, Shawn Rudnick, Ross Callaghan and Nelius Swart, receiving their trophy from Daniel Louw (manager of Fair Cape Dairies’ Group Inbound) and Louis Loubser (marketing director of Fair Cape Dairies).

Fair Cape raises funds with golf day M

uch-needed funds for its social welfare projects were raised with the annual golf day of Fair Cape Cares Foundation.

The golf day held on Friday 20 November at the Durbanville Golf Club is a highlight on the social calendar for all involved.

Ongoing beneficiaries of the founda­tion include Durbanville Children’s Home, the Atlantic Hope Sanctuary for Abandoned Babies, and the Saartjie Baartman Centre for Women and Children.

This year, to help counter the economic devastation brought on by the Covid19 lockdown, the foundation has also partnered with Cape Talk twice to donate a total of R600 000 worth of dairy pro-

ducts to feeding schemes in the Cape Town area.

Joel Serman, a trustee of Fair Cape Cares Foundation, says “doing the right thing” is a fundamental driving force of Fair Cape Dairies with social welfare being one of its brand pillars.

“The foundation was established to raise and disburse funds to ensure the future sustainability of its beneficiary organisations.

“It is extremely rewarding to play a role to add social value to these communities and the various fundraising events that we host every year are what make our welfare projects possible.

“We sincerely thank all participants for their contributions toward these causes,” Serman says.

Trusted furniture store Tafelberg Furnishers has just turned the sod at a new construction site in Brackenfell Industrial where its brand-new distribution centre and warehouse is being constructed.

The R190 million project in partnership with VDMV Property Group will provide 225 employment opportunities and service customers in the Cape Peninsula and Boland districts.

The bulk of the earthworks is currently underway with completion of construction and civil works anticipated for October 2021.

“We are very excited about this project, and trust that we shall be able to serve our customers even better when it comes to deliveries, distribution and turn-around time in all areas of the Cape Peninsula and Boland,” says Tafelberg Furnisher’s CEO, Riaan Lamprecht.

Phillips and Associates Architects in Paarl were contracted to design this centre.

“They designed a practical, aesthetically pleasing structure with a dome shaped roof.

The architecture comprises an equilibrium of concrete, steel and traditional construc­tion methods. The facades are a combination of brickwork and IBR sheeting,” says Lamprecht. He says they had to step the site into two level platforms to maximize efficiency.

According to the plans, the warehouse and offices will amount to 11 500m² with a state-of-the-art fire protection system and LED lighting in the building.

“This all makes a far more efficient and effective warehousing and distribution sys­tem.

“We really endeavour to have this centre be of world-class standard, once it opens its doors in February 2022, and trust that our customers, as well as our warehousing staff members will experience it as such.”

With a 57-year track record in the Western Cape Tafelberg Furnishers is a leading furniture and appliance retailer, and now also has a branch in Roodepoort, Gauteng and in Umhlanga, KZN.

In moeilike omstandighede word baie moeite gedoen om inwoners en personeel spesiaal te laat voel.

Met die aantrek van die skema se nuwe verf baadjie is baie moeite gedoen om die inwoners se keuses in aanmerking te neem.

In ‘n omgewing waar Covid-19 infeksie baie hoog was is die Skema wys bestuur met inagneming van die inwoners en is die enkele infeksies wat wel aangeteken is puik hanteer en verspreiding verhoed.

Die Skema het baie beter gevaar in die bestuur van die pandemie as ander tehuise in die omgewing.

Spesialis sê virus is nie moeg nie CARINA ROUX

Dr Emille Reid (voor) ondersteun nog steeds die inisiatief “Frontline Fridays”, waarin The Daily Coffee Shop koffie en ’n koekie aan gesondheidswerkers verskaf as blyk van waardering.

A

lmal is moeg vir Covid-19, maar die infeksiesiekte-spesialis dr. Emille Reid sê die virus raak nie moeg nie.

Reid woon al sowat 20 jaar in Kuilsrivier en sy praktyk is tans by die Netcare Kuilsrivier-hospitaal. As deel van infeksiesiektes en kritieke sorg wat ook onder sy veld van spesialisasie val, sien hy gereeld die siekste van die siekes, ‘‘maar die Covid-19-pandemie was vir my fisies en waarskynlik ook psigies die ergste gebeurtenis in my hele loopbaan”.

Dit was ’n nagmerrie toe die hoësorgeenheid heeltyd vol was, sê hy. “Ek dink ons almal het uitgesien na ’n bietjie vakansie, ’n blaaskans. Die gevalle wat nou weer toeneem, is eintlik skrikwekkend.”

Na die kruin begin afplat het en ook langtermynpasiënte uiteindelik ontslaan is, het dinge vir ’n tydjie meer ontspanne verloop.

Reid sê in dié tyd het hulle heelwat siektetoestande gesien wat “nagelaat” is, omdat mense doktersafsprake uitgestel het.

“Dit is ’n teleurstelling om die laaste twee (drie) weke ’n noemenswaardige toename in Covid-19-gevalle en hospitalisasies te sien.”

Reid sê sy boodskap was nog altyd, ongeag of ons sielkundig of fisiek moeg is, die virus raak nie moeg nie. “Hy wag vir ons om ons swakhede te wys, wat nou maar is om nie die reëls van afstand hou, hande was, masker dra en ontsmet te volg nie.”

Weens mense se ontspanne gedrag verras die stygende infeksies hom nie, maar hy sê dis sleg dat dit nou gebeur wanneer mense vir familie wil gaan kuier. Hy reken daar lê nog moeilike maande voor en sê hy beny nie die politici wat nog moeilike besluite sal moet neem nie.

Met die Oos-Kaap se hospitale wat weer vol word, sê Reid die personeellede word ook siek. Genoeg beddens is net een aspek. Mense wat onder volgehoue druk werk, is meer

vatbaar om siek te word. Plaaslik en elders is Reid bewus van mense wat verpleging verlaat het omdat hulle nie meer kans gesien het nie. “Ons het ’n groep mense wat uitgebrand is. Dit is waar die probleem gaan inkom in die tweede golf – (ek) kan nie dink hoe ons deur nog ’n ronde gaan (kom) met soortgelyke of hoër intensiteit as die eerste golf nie,” sê hy.

Met sowat 20% van Suid-Afrikaners wat MIV-positief is, was daar aanvanklik kommer dat die pasiënte meer vatbaar sou wees vir die Sars-CoV 2-virus, maar Reid sê soos met varkgriep (H1N1-virus) in 2009, is die teendeel ervaar. Hy sê wat bygedra het tot sterftes met varkgriep was eerder hoë ouderdom of komorbiditeite (onderliggende siektetoestande), soos ook die geval blyk te wees

by Covid-19.

Hy sê “soveel as driekwart” van die baie siek Covid-19-pasiënte wat by hulle opgeneem is, was mans.

“Ek het gek geskeer en gesê dis ’n vroulike virus met die naam Covidina, maar nee, ons is onseker hoekom dit die geval is.”

Daar is gedink vroue is dalk net versigtiger, maar Reid sê tog is baie van die vroue naby aan die mans wat in ’n stryd om lewe

gewikkel was, ook positief getoets, maar het hulle nie so siek geword nie.

“Die aantal MIV-pasiënte wat so siek geword het dat hulle gehospitaliseer moes word, was bitter min.” Reid sê “meer as 90% van pasiënte in hoësorg was diabete”.

Die afgelope paar maande het hulle amper daagliks meer geleer oor die Sars-CoV-2 virus en hoe om pasiënte beter te behandel.

Waar daar in die begin ’n kwessie was oor ventilators, het die gebruik van hoëvloei nasale suurstof, wat nie-indringend toegedien word, nou algemeen geword. Reid sê van die vroeë regulasies wat polities bepaal is, het wel die druk op hospitale verlig, maar ook veroorsaak dat mense laat vir behandeling opgedaag het. “Die boodskap: ‘bly by die huis en kom net hospitaal toe as jy nie meer kan asemhaal nie’ was baie nadelig.” Sommige pasiënte was reeds sterwend.

“Sou daardie individu ’n week vroeër gekom het, was die uitkoms beter. Ek dink ons het seker meer as vier maande laas hier (in die hospitaal) iemand aan die dood afgestaan omrede die mense vroeër presenteer.”

Ook vroeër toediening van medikasie soos “steroïede wat ’n groot invloed op die siekte het”, is beter, sê Reid.

Sogenaamde “verlengde (long) Covid” is iets wat hulle ook sien waar mense wat ’n simptomatiese infeksie gehad het ná maande nog oorblyfsels van siekte toon, soos algehele tamheid, hoofpyn of gebrekkige longkapasiteit. Reid sê sy eie longkapasiteit het drie maande geneem om te herstel nadat hy in Junie ernstig siek was met Covid-19.

Hy is bewus van gevalle waar mense nooit besef het hulle het Covid-19 gehad nie en maande later gepresenteer het met moegheid, kortasem en ontsteking van die hartspier.

“Dit was bitter sleg,” sê Reid oor sy eie siekte-ervaring. Hy het die aanvanklike diarree, lyfseer en hoofpyn toegeskryf aan te min slaap totdat hy koors ontwikkel en kortasem geraak het. “Was dit enige ander infeksie, sou ek uit my kennis geweet het wat om te verwag, maar dit is die onsekerhede oor die uitkoms en verloop wat ’n mens psigies eintlik knou.”

Dit was vir hom belangrik om daaroor te praat en die angs te verwerk om sielkundig weer sterker te voel voor hy kon terugkeer na sy werk. Hy is dankbaar dat sy gesin gesond gebly het, maar sê sy twee tienerkinders wou weet hoekom hy wou terugkeer na ’n plek wat amper sy dood veroorsaak het.

Die gesprek met sy kinders het gegaan oor wat die verskil tussen werk en ’n roeping is.

“Maar voor dit moes ek myself oortuig dat dit die rede is hoekom ek wou terugkom.”

Oor die entstowwe wat tans opslae maak, is sy optimisme gedemp. Een van die redes waarom mRNA (‘‘messenger RNA”)-entstowwe nog nooit voorheen goedgekeur is nie, is omdat dit hoogs onstabiel is. Dit moet by baie lae temperature gestoor word wat “massiewe logistieke probleme inhou vir almal, veral in derdewêreldlande”. Daarby sal mense twee dosisse (jaarliks) moet ontvang.

“As ons dalk volgende jaar toegang sou hê tot ’n beperkte hoeveelheid entstowwe, gaan dit volgens prioriteit verskaf word.”

LEWENSKIEKIE

Kies nugter in feestyd Vir individue wat voorheen gesukkel het met substansafhanklikheid of midde-in ’n probleem is, kan die feestyd ’n uitdagende tydperk wees.

Om vooraf besluite te neem oor hoe jy gaan optree in uitdagende situasies, gaan dit vir seker vir jou makliker maak om die versoeking te weerstaan. ’n Nugterheidsprogram om onvervulde verwagtinge, stresvolle gesinsdinamika, of “gebeurtenisvolle vakansiepartytjies” te hanteer in die weke wat voorlê, is dus uiters noodsaaklik.

Nuttige nugtervakansie-wenke . Plak ’n nota teen jou spieël in die badkamer om jouself te herinner aan hoe goed dit voel om nugter te wees. Stel ook vir jouself doelwitte wat jy graag op jou nuwe pad wil bereik. . Hou jou verwagtinge realisties.

Ander mense in jou lewe het waarskynlik nie verander nie en baie van die konflikte wat gewoonlik tydens familiebyeenkomste opduik, mag dalk weer opduik.

Aanvaar dit en onderdruk die drang om alles en almal te manipuleer. . Beplan ander aktiwiteite as om net ledig rond te sit. Stel aktiwiteite voor wat almal besig en gefokus kan hou soos om saam te gaan stap, bordspeletjies te speel of ou flieks te kyk.

Fokus op jou gesin en om aktiwiteite Oefen jou saam met hulle te doen. Om dinge reaksie sóú saam te doen, bou en iemand iets herinneringe bied geleentheid vir saam lag en gesels. vir jou . Probeer sover moontlik steeds aanbied. inskakel by ’n Só sal dit ondersteuningsgroep. Met die makliker Covid-19-pandemie bied Ramot byvoorwees om beeld elke DonderZoom-on“nee” te sê. dagaand dersteuningsgroepe aan. Dit help om jou te ondersteun en om sekere versoekings vroegtydig te identifiseer en te weerstaan. . Vermy plekke waar jy weet jy in versoeking gestel gaan word, of ge-“trigger” mag word. Daar is niks verkeerd met ’n rustige vakansietyd nie. Rus, slaap en oefen gereeld. . As almal oor die “goeie ou dae” begin praat, verskoon jouself van die geselskap. Hou jou fokus op jou nuwe lewe in herstel. . Wees baie versigtig saam met wie jy eet en drink. Vermy alle alkohol en hou jou risiko so klein as moontlik. Dit is van kritieke belang om weg te bly van die moontlikheid om terug te val. . Beplan in die goeie tye hoe jy slegte tye gaan hanteer. Skryf in die goeie tye neer wat vir jou werk as die versoeking opduik – byvoorbeeld om ’n vriend te bel, om ’n boek te lees, om te oefen of om te bid. Sodra die drang opduik, kan jy dadelik reageer eerder as om dan te besluit wat jy gaan doen. . Dit is goed om mense te vertel dat jy nou in die herstelproses is. As jy vir mense laat weet dat jy nie meer alkohol of dwelms gebruik nie, mag hulle jou respekteer. Jy kan dalk terselfdertyd ’n inspirasie wees vir ander wat dalk voorheen te bang was om die sprong te neem om ook ’n lewe van nugterheid te kies. . Besluit vooraf dat jy nie by gesellighede alkohol of dwelms gaan gebruik nie.

Vra hulp van jou Hoër Hand, want jy kan dit dalk nodig hê. Oefen jou reaksie sóú iemand iets vir jou aanbied. Só sal dit makliker wees om “nee” te sê. As jy kan, vat jou eie waterbottel of glas vol koeldrank. In hierdie geval sal jy nie na die kroeg hoef te gaan nie. Onthou, die herstelpad voel soms lank en uitdagend, maar met elke “nee” en regte keuse word jy sterker. Kort voor lank word jy die beste weergawe van jouself wat jou familie en geliefdes verdien. – Clyde Schroeder (maatskaplike werker by Ramot Rehabilitasiesentrum in Parow).

Vehicles a concern for years D’Urbanvale and surrounding immediate areas have a major issue which has been ongoing for years. D’Urbanvale is used as a thoroughfare and a racetrack (council has known about this issue for years).

We are subject to road hogs pervading our areas.

These are individuals who drive/ride high-powered vehicles through D’Urbanvale and along Vissershok Road.

Vehicles entering or exiting D’Urbanvale proceed at break-neck speed. Heavy trucks continue to drive along Mosselbankriver as a through road. Is it justified that vehicles (cars and motorcycles) race to the first circle on Vissershok Road at high speed? High revving, back throttle, etcetera. This is besides the fact there is a school right at the circle.

I know there are people that have issues and have not quite moved from adolescence to adults.

As an example, (Saturday at 11:45) a red Jeep (powerful motor) approached the Vissershok circle turned left into Vissershok towards Durbanville and proceeded at break-neck speed. This is a minute example as this happens multiple times a day. In fact, this abuse also pertains to vehicles turning right towards the N7.

Quite frankly, the residents of this area are gatvol of the constant abuse.

To the Road Hogs, you have absolutely no respect and no regard for residents who have to keep enduring the abuse. If you have any personal issues, get help.

EXTREMELY IRATE RESIDENT D’Urbanvale

Get vagrants off Goodwood streets In the TygerBurger of 25 November, the Goodwood Neigbourhood Watch chair Leona van Wyk said that there are only 25 true vagrants in Goodwood (“Shortage of patrollers”).

Lady, I do not know where you live but it is definitely not in Goodwood. Here are literally hundreds of people living in and around Goodwood and they are sleeping and putting up their tents and makeshifts everywhere, even in front of the fire station across the street from me. I have asked time and again when this subject was brought on the cards – the question of ablution facilities for this people – but it is being avoided all the time. In front of the OK Bazaar in Hugo Street is a squatter camp, in Boulevard Street is one, next to Shoprite in Voortrekker Road there is one and how many other places.

People urinate everywhere they go and do not even care if anyone sees them. People must walk there.

The latest is now that they keep dogs, even on chains, or rather wires, where they squat. Calling the SPCA, I was told that they eat better then the squatters themselves.

Food was not the point, if you are homeless you cannot keep animals. If I want to adopt a dog or cat there is an inspection to see how big my yard is, if I have a proper place for the animal to sleep, as a matter of fact they must sleep inside. They must get injections, must be spayed, get a chip and I must pay for them.

I am not allowed to walk in the street with my dog without a chain but I am also being told by the SPCA that the dog is only chained when it is peak hour, otherwise they are loose. And the people who give them food are not

necessarily Goodwood people.

There is a car who comes every day and gives out bread and clothes to the people living along Boulevard and behind the Roman Catholic church on Giel Basson. That bread and clothes ends up everywhere on the streets because they are not interested in it. They want money that the government now so generously handed out to them every month although they have never worked before, come to your house to beg but never asked for work.

They are abusive, drunk, fights, uses foul language – not even to talk about the litter. Get them off our streets or do you want to show the tourists who drive along the streets in the open-air bus how third-world we really are. The City of Cape Town wants tourists. First clean up your city then you invite people, that’s how we do it in our houses, not so?

DISGUSTED CITIZEN Richmond Estate

Questions raised on private function Willem De Haan’s letter (“Too easy to step on a racial toe” TygerBurger, 2 December) refers. His simplistic approach to this very contentious matter, requires further comment.

The arrangement of a matric farewell falls under the auspices and is the responsibility of the school and its governing body and not any private person(s).

There are laws and regulations governing schools and their control boards. As such, a school has an inherent responsibility of control and responsibility at these events which must be complied with and not delegated to whoever.

A school which wishes to “subcontract” the arrange-

ments of the event, cannot be faulted as long as the subcontractor abides by official rules and regulations of the school.

If it is a multiracial school, events must ipso facto reflect the multi-racialism nature of the school which is naturally reflected in sporting and all other activities of such school. Why on earth would the culmination of 12 years of study in a multiracial environment, require a separatistic approach to the farewell?

Granted, private parties may be arranged according to the freedom of association clause as contained in the country’s Constitution, but I think the relevant question to be asked here is why was anybody allowed to arrange a private function while it is the schools responsibility to arrange the function.

Willem, methinks you are tending to be a bit too forgiving in this instance.

Trotse inwoner van Brackenfell Vanoggend, 26 November, onderweg tussen Kruin- en Suikerbosstraat in Brackenfell, kry ek amper ’n hartstilstand: die pad word geteer!

Na my eerste skrywe aan Stad Kaapstad (direktoraat paaie en vervoer), het ek die volgende dag ’n verwysingsnommer ontvang met melding dat daar aandag aan gegee sal word.

Tong in die kies, ja wat ...

Dankie Stad Kaapstad, met spesifieke verwysing na Nicolene October wat nie net beloftes gemaak het nie, maar gesorg het dat die probleem opgelos word. In kort, ’n stelsel wat werk.

Nou is ek weer, en nog steeds, ’n trotse inwoner van Brackenfell.

former lawyer from Bellville has been sentenced to 12 years in prison after defrauding the Road Accident Fund (RAF) of R14.8 million.

The lawyer, Brian Albertus Baumann (53), was sentenced in the Bellville Commercial Crimes Court last week after he helped himself to RAF payouts due to his clients.

According to Eric Ntabazalila, spokesperson of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), Baumann used most of the funds for his gambling addiction. He is a divorced father of three and admitted to receiving psychotherapy for his addiction. As part of a plea agreement, Baumann confessed to 16 counts of fraud. “The court ordered that an investigation be conducted to determine whether any money or assets can be confiscated from the benefits of the 53-year-old Bellville attorney,” he said in a statement.

“The court has also ordered the state and the defence to submit heads of argument on 27 September 2021 and that a confiscation hearing be heard on 15 October 2021.”

He was arrested on 13 February this year following an investigation by the Hawks, after committing the crimes between January 2018 and December 2019. He admitted to the court that he was obliged to open and hold a trust account for his practice.

“He confessed that he received more than R24.4m on behalf of his clients from the RAF but he only paid his clients R6.7m and un-

lawfully pocketed R14.8m for himself.”

The prosecutor, Advocate Siphokazi Makanda, told the court that Baumann failed to pay the money from his trust account to his clients or paid them less than was due.

“The accused’s actions have undermined the image and integrity of the legal profession and he has shown the worst form of disregard for the rule of law. He mercilessly defrauded his clients who had suffered severe bodily injuries and were handsomely compensated by the RAF to enable them to apply the necessary measures to improve their quality of life post the road accidents they were subjected to,” she said.

“He continued with his criminal actions against his clients even after charges were laid against him, proving total lack of remorse for his actions,” she argued.

Ntabazalila said the State, in consultation with the Asset Forfeiture Unit, “applied for the confiscation order of the accused assets and probe”. Baumann was ordered to submit a statement that will help assist the court in making a decision.

“On 20 August 2021, the applicant must dispute the correctness of the statement made by the accused. The applicant and the accused must notify any person or persons who may have interests in the identified assets or properties that are likely to be confiscated to make representations to the court within seven days of them being notified.”

The hearing will be on 15 October 2021.

Zinzi Hani, spokesperson for the Hawks, confirmed the events.

Motorverkoper tronk toe NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk ’n Bellvillese handelaar in gebruikte voertuie is verlede week 18 jaar tronkstraf vir bedrog en geldwassery opgelê.

Ryan Courtney (33) is in die Bellvillehandelshof skuldig bevind op 28 aanklagte van geldwassery en een van bedrog.

Eric Ntabazalila, woordvoerder van die nasionale vervolgingsgesag (NVG), sê in ’n verklaring Courtney is ’n bekende sakeman in die wêreld van tweedehandse voertuie.

Courtney het beleggers gekry om vooraf geld te gee om voertuie te koop en het dan die voertuie teen ’n groot wins aan motorhandelaars verkoop.

“Hy werf beleggers wat geld gee vir die koop van voertuie wat hy dan aan handelaars verkoop vir hul vertoonlokale. Die voertuie word vir ’n beduidende wins verkoop.”

Tussen Oktober 2017 en Februarie 2019 het hy geld van die beleggers ontvang en belowe dat hy daarmee voertuie sou koop. Hy het egter die geld gebruik om

dieselfde voertuig te koop en te verkoop.

Sy beleggers is altesame R16,8 miljoen kwyt. Ntabazalila sê hy het die geld gebruik om ander beleggers te betaal, maar dit is ook vir persoonlike gebruik aangewend om sy dobbelverslawing te finansier.

Baie van die beleggers is mense met wie hy voorheen besigheid gedoen het.

“Hy het hul vertroue gewen deur die feit dat hul opbrengste op hul vorige beleggings gekry het.”

Die aanklaer, adv. Juan Agulhas, het aan die hof gesê beleggers het baie geld weens Courtney se leuens verloor.

“Die uitermatige groot bedrag geld wat by hierdie bedrog betrokke is, is baie verswarend.”

Hy het gesê hierdie soort oortredings het ’n groot impak op die Suid-Afrikaanse ekonomie en is baie ernstig.

Courtney is 13 jaar tronkstraf opgelê vir die 28 aanklagte van bedrog en vyf jaar vir geldwassery. Ses jaar van sy vonnis is met voorwaardes vir vyf jaar opgeskort. Die vonnis vir geldwassery is in geheel vir vyf jaar opgeskort.

Jong kunstenaars vereer DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke Belowende jong kunstenaars verbonde aan Emelia Cillié-Gilson se kunsskool Art for All in Brackenfell is vandeesweek beloon vir uitmuntende werk in 2020, ondanks die ongekende uitdagings.

Cillié-Gilson het tydens die inperking met virtuele kunsklasse voortgegaan, wat vir ’n hele paar studente ’n moeilike uitdaging was te midde van baie negatiewe ervarings.

Die ATKV se Durbanville-tak het weer vanjaar die kunswerke beoordeel en die prysuitdeling het Saterdagoggend virtueel plaasgevind.

Anke de Wet (15) was die algehele wenner met 99%.

“Dit is vir my ’n baie groot eer om hierdie erkenning te kry. Die kunsklas is altyd vir my ’n manier om te ontspan en af te skakel. Ek sien elke week uit daarna,” sê sy.

Michael Brand (15) was tweede met 98%.

“Nadat ek hierdie trofee gewen het, voel ek meer gemotiveerd om my kuns te verbeter.”

Tiani Roux (13) was die graad 4 tot 7-wenner met 90% en Hanri de Vries (9) die graad R tot 3-wenner. Tiani sê sy was aangenaam

verras en Hanri was in die wolke met haar trofee, wat sy met 90% losgeslaan het.

“Dit is die eerste keer dat ek ’n prys wen vir kuns. Kuns is vir my baie, baie lekker,” sê sy.

Beoordelaars het gemeld dat studente vanjaar kunswerke van ’n hoë standaard gelewer het.

“Die positiewe resultaat van die aanlyn klasse word bewys in die kunswerke.

Emelia het selfs ’n student met Skype-klasse gehelp om waterverf as ’n nuwe medium te begin gebruik. Haar top-trofeewenner het ’n dubbelgoue toekenning met ’n portretstudie behaal en dit ook deur middel van Skype-klasse.

“Wat vir my uitstaande is, was die kontak en harmonie tussen kunsafrigter en kunsleerder ten spyte van die pandemie,” sê Suzette Laten, hoofbeoordelaar.

Cillié-Gilson het haar trots teenoor al haar leerders uitgespreek. “Ek is baie trots op elke leerder van my.

“Hulle het so ’n negatiewe jaar beleef en tog het hulle die beste daarvan probeer maak.”

Sassa confirms office had to close RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) recently confirmed that it had to close its office’s doors in Bellville after a reported confirmed case of Covid-19. The office had to close its doors on Friday 13 November.

Edgemead resident Steven Taylor who visited the offices on the day complained about the poor service he and others apparently had to endure at the hands of staff at the specific offices. “What I witnessed on Friday at Sassa in Bellville is the most undemocratic thing I have seen in this country.

“I was there just after 08:00 and when I got there I found people standing outside. When I went to the front door I had the door slammed in my face by the security guard.

I told him that I have an appointment, but he was very aggressive towards me and told me no, he is not letting anyone in.

“A few minutes after that a team leader

came out with four security guards telling people to go home, that there had been a case of Covid-19. He was very rude to the people, with many sitting outside for hours and travelling far to be there, just to be told to come back another day.

The Sassa offices are located in Mazzur Road, Bellville. Sassa confirmed that it is aware of the closure at its Bellville offices on that day due to a confirmed Covid-19 case.V“In line with occupational health and safety standards as well as stipulated Covid19 hygiene protocols for all work places, if a case of Covid-19 is identified, the premises is immediately closed for sanitising and staff must evacuate the premises for this process.

“We do understand the inconvenience to clients when any Sassa contact point is closed for sanitising. Clients must be redirected to alternate Sassa contact points of their choice,” Shivani Wahab, director: marketing and communications, explained.

Youth Music Festival free online A

rtscape and the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra (CPO), with the support of the City of Cape Town, have ensured the 49th Western Cape Youth Music Festival will be celebrated this year.

This annual event is a highlight of the classical music calendar and gives young, exceptionally talented instrumentalists and singers the opportunity of performing with an orchestra on a professional stage.

As it was not possible to have live auditions, musicians were invited to submit online videos of the work they would play at the concert. The criteria were that they are bona fide music students, performed at a very high standard, and were resident or studying music in the Western Cape. Nine extraordinarily talented musicians were selected to perform with the CPO, conducted by Brandon Phillips.

The concert is approximately 80 minutes long and has been recorded for Artscape’s YouTube channel and Fine Music Radio (FMR). In preparation for the recording, the

soloists received individual, comprehensive sessions with Brandon Phillips and the orchestra.

Included in the programme are the following works: Mozart Piano

Concerto, Weber Bassoon, Albinoni Oboe, Poulenc Piano, Bruch double concerto, Rachmaninoff Piano, Saint-Saens Cello and Brahms Piano.

The soloists are Cameron Williams (23) from Stellenbosch on clarinet who will perform a duet with Stephane Lawrenson (23) from Rondebosch on viola, Nicola McLa-

The adjudicating panel viewed the audition video recordings, projected on a large screen, giving each applicant the same opportunity to present their work.

Louis Heyneman, head of the CPO, says the Youth Music Festival has been one of the most important launching pads for many young musicians and an integral part of its mandate to be an orchestra for all, serving all facets of the community.

FMR will broadcast the concert on Sunday 13 December between 15:00 and 17:00 and Artscape YouTube streaming is online from 13 December. Access is free.

The concert features an allMozart programme, with the overture to Cosi fan tutte and the “Symphony No. 39 in E flat, K 543”, with pianists François du Toit performing the Mozart Concerto for Two Pianos. Two of South Africa’s favourite pianists, François du Toit and Albie van Schalkwyk, are collaborating on this concerto in which the writing for two pianos is evenly spread. Both are revered soloists and accompanists.

Sequel of unique SA comedy on at Baxter Television actress Chantal Stanfield and director Megan Furniss once again team up to bring sequel uniquely South African comedy, From Koe’siestes To Kneidlach – With Kids! to the Baxter Golden Arrow Studio from Tuesday 22 December to 9 January at 20:15.

Written and performed by Stanfield (Getroud met rugby, Binnelanders) with music compiled by RJ Benjamin and produced by Kizara Kreative,

Chantal Stanfield PHOTO: AURELLIE STRATTON

this kosher comedy follows the bizarre, funny and true story of what happens when a girl from the Cape Flats falls in love with a Jewish boy from Joburg’s East Rand.

She finds herself in the middle of a culture, heritage and traditions, vastly different from her own, while she shares and celebrates her very colourful background too.

From Koe’siestes To Kneidlach – With Kids! picks up a few years after the mixed-racemixed-everything happy couple get married and ride off into the shabbat sunset.

Now there’s a “beige” baby

on the way with a myriad of cultural, religious and familial issues to navigate – from the minefield of beautiful names and their unfortunate companion nicknames from the Flats; a proud “bossiekop” dealing with her child’s “gladde hare” (straight hair); celebrating Christmas and Hannukah while explaining barakat to the Jewish in-laws – to how to avoid getting mistaken for the nanny.

Along the way audiences will meet interesting characters like the omnipresent voice of her mother, her gay best friend and nosy neighbours

and several others.

The original production From Koe’siestes To Kneidlach had a four-week season at The Baxter in 2017.

All performances will be limited to fifty percent capacity, with Covid-19 protocols in place. Arrive at least an hour before the start to avoid delays.

No performances on 24, 25 December and 1 January.

V Ticket prices range from R80 to R150 with discounted block bookings and student and pensioner prices at R110. Booking is through Webtickets on 086 111 0005, online at www.webtickets.co.za or at Pick n Pay stores.

When noise becomes a factor A

certain level of noise is an inescapable part of urban and suburban living and residents accept that they will regularly be subjected to numerous noise sources of various levels, including traffic, taxis, construction work and, quite often, their neighbours.

“In recent years the level of noise has been exacerbated by the ongoing densification in cities, especially in the suburbs where new residential properties are being built and commercial centres expanded to meet growing demand,” says Yael Geffen, CEO of Lew Geffen Sotheby’s International Realty.

“Not only are the sounds of construction more commonplace, but properties are becoming smaller with more people living together in closer proximity in apartment blocks and gated communities which intensifies the level of peripheral sound that we have to endure daily.

“However, there is a point where noise can reach an unacceptable level and, whilst there is little we can do about the constant thrum of traffic, we do have recourse when noise becomes unnecessarily intrusive and impacts on our right to enjoy

the ordinary comfort and convenience of our homes.”

Eduan Milner of Eduan Milner Attorneys, Notaries and Conveyancers says there is more sensitivity and awareness regarding the negative impact of noise that exceeds specified levels and municipal by-laws and environment legislation include provisions for dealing with noise regulation contravention.

“However, it should be noted that South African law makes a distinction between disturbing noise and noise nuisance.

“The first is objective and is defined as a scientifically measurable noise level such as a loud party where music is played at midnight at a volume where the lyrics are audible to neighbours, while the latter is a subjective measure and is defined as any noise that disturbs or impairs the convenience or peace of any person like the incessant barking of a neighbour’s dog.”

Both are illegal in terms of the Environ-

ment Conservation Act but, while the first is usually handled with a call to the police, the latter is not always as simple.

“In order to show that a noise nuisance exists, a reasonable person must find a certain noise intolerable or seriously affecting his enjoyment of his property and it may come down to a court applying a test of objective reasonable­ness,” Milner says.

“In residential areas, the enforcement is by the local authority and there are various penalties provided it is shown that the noise actually exceeds acceptable levels.

“Generally the ‘guilty party’ will be asked to desist from making the noise and if he fails to do so, further steps can be taken such as fines issued by the authorities or an action brought to court by the complainant.”

This final step, however, should be carefully considered and complainants must ensure they have all their ducks in a row as payment for the costs usually depends

on the outcome with the courts ordering the unsuccessful party to settle the costs.

Geffen adds that people should also be cognisant of any new zoning regulations which may have been passed, especially if they are considering buying residential property in a mixed-use area.

“It is always best to be forewarned as to what is permitted in an area where you are looking to purchase property and to decide whether or not your needs and lifestyle could be impacted.

“If you like to be asleep by 21:00 every night and value peace and tranquillity then buying a home in vibrant suburbs like Cape Town’s De Waterkant or the heart of Rosebank in Johannesburg is probably not a good idea. It is also wise to look into an area’s subdivision and development laws and the prevalence of development in that suburb if living next to a building site for a year would drive you crazy.

“However, if investors love a property but are unsure about the proximity of businesses, they must ask a local estate agent who will be able to enlighten them about the general tone of an area and what noise levels can be expected.”

Skolekrieket begin vroeg SAREL BURGER

Durbanville Majorette Club in full regalia during competition.

The club was established in 2018.

MAJORETTES: BASE NOW IN KRAAIFONTEIN

New home for club EARL HAUPT @earlhaupt

W

ith almost all of 2020 being blighted by the Covid-19 pandemic, group activities have found it more challenging to stay active, let alone resume activity.

However, a group of mothers in and around the northern suburbs are determined not to only keep the sport of drum majorettes alive, but to continue its growth throughout the area.

Following its formation in 2018, the Durbanville Majorettes Club (DMC) had the vision to take this sport into the local communities, with athletes being sourced from Aristea Primary School, Fanie Theron Primary, Delft Primary, Gene Louw, Curro Durbanville and Curro Pinehurst.

“We aimed to run a low fee, no fee club.

We were given access to practise grounds at Curro Durbanville and as they had previously done the sport, they allowed us to use all their equipment and uniforms. We approached all the schools in the northern suburbs,” says chair Yvonne Viljoen.

Viljoen recalls their first competitive ye-

ar last year where they placed first in the provincial championships which garnered an invitation to the national championships in Oudtshoorn, placing nineth out of the 18 teams who participated, a remarkable feat, considering the club relies heavily on its corporate sponsors and parents. The upward trend laid the foundation for a promising 2020, however, the global Covid-19 pandemic quickly halted further progress.

However, this did not prevent the club from unveiling its new home at Aristea Primary School in Kraaifontein.

“I started drummies in my early days in primary school already. It is a sisterhood.

We are a family. There was so much I gained from the sport. It entrenched such valuable life skills that I still use today. The importance of teamwork, you are only as good as your team member, navigate around your team members, be cognisant of their needs and emotions as you are all one team. I gained independence. It taught me discipline, time management, to stay focused, to dream big,” adds Viljoen.

Viljoen believes drummies is a form of empowerment for young women. “I had always dreamt that one day my daughters

would benefit from the sport and this is one of the reasons I started the club. Every one of the DMC girls is like a daughter to me,” she adds, saying that there has always been a misconception about drummies being a rich girls’ sport. “My vision was to take this sport back to its grassroots. Make it available to all and any young girl in the vicinity who had a desire to be a part of the DMC sisterhood. With a no-fee/low fee strategy, and transport to and from practices and our weekend feeding scheme we were able to make this accessible to all girls.” With drummies allowing anywhere between four and 50 people being able to participate and compete at the same time, DMC have now also broadened their scope by joining a new federation, the Federation of Dance Drill Cheerleading and Majorettes South Africa (FDDCMSA), which also allows transgender and young men to participate.

“We practise up to three to four days a week. The girls have to be 110% committed.

They have to juggle their academic and drummies and mainstream sporting, we hope to enrich and empower our young girls with these skills to take forth with them into their lives,” says Viljoen.

The South African nine-hour race was held at Killarney on Saturday 5 December. The start, with 51 cars entered, was always going to be a frantic affair, but amazingly there were no coming togethers into the first corner and all made it safely into the early part of the race. PHOTO: COLIN BROWN

’n Aantal skolekrieketspanne in die Tygerbergstreek sal genoodsaak wees om reeds in die komende vakansie hul vere reg te skud vir die eerste wedstryde in 2021, aangesien wedstryde reeds vir die ongewone tyd – die eerste skoolweek in die nuwe jaar – bepaal is.

Dit is as gevolg van die feit dat die 2021-skooljaar later as normaalweg begin en daarmee hierdie somerkwartaal ietwat “inkort”.

Somersport-aktiwiteite sluit teoreties reeds op 13 Maart af omdat die daaropvolgende Saterdag ’n vakansiedag is.

Dit is terselfdertyd die gebruiklike begindatum vir die wintersportsoorte se voorseisoense wedstryde.

Omdat die eerste skoolkwartaal korter as gewoonlik is ten opsigte van die somersporte, en om alle ter saaklike kompetisies “ingepas” te kry, sal van die spanne hul eerste wedstryde onmiddellik ná die heropening van die skole op 27 Januarie moet afhandel.

Dit geld veral die skole wat ingeskryf het vir die nasionale 20/20-uitklopkompetisie vir o.19-spanne.

Aangesien die eindronde vir die naweek van 13 Maart beplan word, móét die wedstryde in die uitdunrondes in die eerste skoolweek plaasvind ten einde genoegsame tyd beskikbaar te stel voor die hele land se uiteindelike streekwenners bepaal kan word.

Deelnemende skole sal waarskynlik Saterdag 30 Januarie benut vir wedstryde in die eerste ronde, want die program vir die voldag- o.19-ligawedstryde sal eers op 6 Februarie in die WP plaasvind.

Wat die WP Noordelike Stadsgebiedestreekunie (WPNS) se kompetisies betref, sal een o.19-wedstryd in die Peter Buttner Sport-kompetisie – Reddam House Durbanville t HS Parow – wel reeds op 30 Januarie gespeel word.

Omdat daar net ’n beperkte aantal Saterdae beskikbaar is vir WPNS-wedstryde, sal enkele ander kragmetings ook op 30 Januarie ingeruim moet word: Brackenfell teen Curro Durbanville in die Francor Bakkery-liga vir o.19Bspanne, en só ook Fairbairn teen HS Tygerberg, asook The Settlers teen Fairmont in die All-Sports Travel-liga vir o.15-spanne.
