Chevron South Africa orders the immediate removal of Caltex logo on landmark koppie at Matoks

Outrage!

Caltex logo on koppie sparks controversy

By Andries van Zyl Outrage! This sums up residents’ reaction to a publicity stunt by a local Caltex filling­station owner to promote his business by painting a massive Caltex logo on one of the landmark koppies at Matoks along the N1 between Makhado (Louis Trichardt) and Polokwane.

The enormous Caltex logo, promoting the Caltex filling station at Botlokwa, appeared about two weeks ago. Needless to say, it has since sparked widespread condemnation from the public and, with the koppies at Matoks being of great archaeological significance,

left environmentalists fuming.

“Vandalism!!! Disgusting!!! Cheap stunt,” was Wilma Crous’s response on the Zoutpansberger’s Facebook page, while A D Muller wrote on the same page: “It is totally illegal ... Do Caltex think they are Boesmans ...?” Peter Schofield was as disappointed with Caltex, writing: “... tragic destruction of our natural heritage.

Someone needs to take Caltex on in this regard.” (To view all the comments, visit the Zoutpansberger’s Facebook page) Prof Ben van der Waal, a well-known local environmentalist, was as upset. He said he had confronted the filling-station owner about the painting of the koppie. The owner’s response left him

dumfounded. “He told me he got permission from the local chief to paint the koppie,” Van der Waal said.

Mr Alan McMurtrie of the Department of Environmental Affairs’ Wildlife and Trade office in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) said on Tuesday that he only found out about the painting of the koppie last Friday.

“Unfortunately, the policing side of what happened does not fall under the duties of the Wildlife and Trade Office. It should fall under Environmental Affairs’ law enforcement, but there is no law-enforcement officer for Makhado (Louis Trichardt),” McMurtrie said. (Contd on P 3)

Municipality warn that they can cut services

Colleagues of the deceased Nara Mashamaite strew flowers on the wreaths that were laid in her memory on the spot where she was killed.

By Isabel Venter

Nara’s colleagues demand justice Traffic was brought to a halt last Friday as hundreds of protesters, dressed in bright red and green, marched from the Makhado (Louis Trich­ ardt) train station to the mag­ istrate’s court to demand justice for the murdered Nara Mashamaite (47).

The marchers, who consisted of Transnet officials and members of the local community, gathered at the spot where Mashamaite, a train driver for Transnet, was brutally murdered on 4 June last year.

The train had stopped close to the Makhado train station, and Mashamaite got off with her assistant to check whether the train had any mechanical problems.

Mashamaite was allegedly first raped before she was killed. Her assistant managed to flee.

Eleven months after her murder, the suspect arrested in connection with her death is still in custody and his case is proceeding at a snail’s pace.

The slow progress in the case is what sparked the march. “We want these senseless killers convicted. Let them rot in jail – rot,” said Transnet’s chief executive officer, Brian Molefe.

Molefe spoke to the marchers during a wreath-laying ceremony that was held on Friday (3rd) at the spot where Mashamaite was killed. The suspect, Jerry Shuma (22) from Zimbabwe, was initially arrested for housebreaking in October last year, but was later accused of murdering Mashamaite. He has been in custody ever since.

Shuma has appeared in court numerous times, with his case

being postponed each time. This is apparently because the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) in Polokwane still has to decide whether the State will prosecute Shuma or not. According to information available, a DNA sample had already been taken from Shuma and, based on the outcome of this test, the DPP will decided whether the State has a strong case or not.

Shuma briefly appeared in court shortly before the marchers arrived at the court house. A final postponement was granted

by Magistrate Bennie Smith to hear the outcome of the DPP’s decision. Shuma will remain in custody until his next appearance on 7 June.

The Makhado Municipality urged the Sout­ pansberg Ratepayers Association (SRPA) this week to seriously reconsider their boycott action against the municipality.

This was in reaction to the Constitutional Court’s recent judgement in the Olga Rademan vs Moqhaka Municipality’s case. The Zoutpansberger reported on the judgement last week, with reference to the SRPA’s on-going process of withholding certain components of their monthly municipal rates and taxes as part of their dispute with the Makhado Municipality. Mention was also made of the interpretation of Mr Jaap Kelder, chairman of the National Rate Payers Union, of the judgement.

In a press release issued by the office of the municipal manager, the Makhado Municipality invites consumers, residents and ratepayers of the Makhado Municipality to make an effort and read the judgment for themselves. The judgment is available on the Constitutional Court’s website, namely www.constitutionalcourt.org.za or on the Zoutpansberger’s website.

“The crux of the matter is stated in Paragraph 30 - 34 and 41 - 42 of the judgment, where the Court analysed Section 102 of the Municipal Systems Act and stated that Section 102, as well as the municipal by-laws (Moqhaka Local Municipality), provide for the consolidation of the consumers’ accounts. The Makhado Municipality does have similar by-laws,” the municipality says. They go on to explain that once a municipal account has been consolidated, it is one account without different

Pressure on SRPA to give money back

The Makhado Municipality wants its millions back.

The members of the Soutpansberg Ratepayers Association (SRPA) have been withholding certain portions of their municipal account payments, following a dispute declared in August 2008 regarding poor and nonexistent service delivery.

Instead, the SRPA members paid the monies into a trust account that has accumulated to a total of close to R6 milliion, and not R10 million as portrayed in some media reports.

The Makhado Municipality, through its attorneys, has now demanded payment of all the arrears accounts withheld by the SRPA members, within seven days of their letter dated 29 April.

The municipality’s attorneys have also confirmed that they had already received instructions to proceed with debt collection against the members of the Van links na regs is Duminisani Baloyi (33) en Enok Mutuque (48 ), wat in die Kruger Nasionale SRPA, but they are awaiting an Park gearresteer is, nadat hulle probeer vlug het.

components, such as an electricity component, a refuse-removal component and components for rates and taxes .

“By paying the various components of the accounts but not the rates and taxes component, the consumer places him/herself in default and the Makhado Municipality will be entitled to terminate electricity and/or water supply to the consumer’s premises.

“In paragraph 39 of the judgment, the Court states that when the municipality has consolidated a resident’s account for various services, the resident’s account becomes one consumer account and the resident is obliged to pay the whole consolidated account. If the resident pays for one of the components of the account and not for others, he/she contravenes the municipality’s conditions of payment and this entitles the municipality to terminate the resident’s electricity supply,” the municipality states. They add that it is therefore clear that a resident cannot dictate which components of his or her account he or she wants to pay.

“If the resident fails to pay the whole consolidated account, it entitles the municipality to terminate electricity or other services to the resident’s premises and to proceed with the Credit Control and Debt Collection By-laws,” the municipality said. In this regard, the municipality expresses the hope that the SRPA and its members will seriously reconsider their boycott action and pay their arrear accounts to “prevent any unnecessary legal action and the termination of services to their premises”.

members cannot dictate which portion of their accounts they like to pay and which portion not.

As the Makhado Municipality’s Credit Control and Debt Collection by-laws were promulgated, the Makhado Municipality is entitled to enforce the by-laws and demand payment of the arrear amounts on the accounts of the Soutpansberg Rate Payer Association members as well as from any other consumers whose accounts are also in arrears,” writes the attorney, Johan Hamman senior of Hammann-Moosa Incorporated.

SRPA Chairperson Inga Gilfillan has said that they are in discussions with their advocate.

“ ... we are considering all our options ... At our meeting of 15 May, we will obtain a mandate from our members as to our actions, because this is a serious matter with far-reaching implications,” Gilfillan said.

The Makhado Municipality also demands that the SRPA “abandon the interim Court Order in the case of Makhado Municipality vs Enslin and Du Plessis.” The SRPA obtained a court order on 3 February 2012 that the electricity supply of the above-mentioned members be reconnected and that the electricity supply of their members not be terminated.

Murder mystery unfolds at AFB Makhado her boyfriend who is a member of the South African Air Force (SAAF). He is working at AFB Makhado.

Makhado police confirmed on Wednesday morning that the woman’s boyfriend was arrested in connection with her death. By the time of going to press he had still to be officially charged with murder. Police also said that it would seem that the couple was fighting before the woman’s death.

By Wednesday the woman’s identity was still unknown. Allegations that the woman was first rape and then murdered could not be confirmed.

Shortly after the woman’s body was discovered, the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) released a press statement confirming the incident.

The suspect was expected to be brought before the Louis Trichardt District Court on Wednesday afternoon.

Deur Isabel Venter

Hartseer ná selfmoord Die nuus van nog ‘n bekende van Makhado (Louis Trichardt) se selfmoord het die afgelope week skokgolwe deur die gemeenskap gestuur.

Die 51-jarige mnr. Jan Brink, of Jan Avbob soos hy alombekend gestaan het, se liggaam is Saterdagmiddag in die veld tussen die Grasdak in Cellierstraat en die Soutpansberg Gholfklub gekry.

“Niemand het dit verwag nie,” het Jan se skoondogter, Nina Brink, Maandag aan die Zoutpansberger gesê. “Ek en Jannie [Jan se seun] het nog verlede naweek vir hom kom kuier en hy was opgeruimd,” het sy gesê.

Jan het Donderdag (2de) vermis geraak. “Ons kon hom net nie in die hande kry nie; sy selfoon was af gewees,” het Nina gesê. Nina en Jannie bly in Potchefstroom.

Jan se vrou, Sally, was nie by die huis nie. Sy het vir hulle dogter, Anél, in Port Elizabeth gaan kuier. Teen Saterdag, toe Jan nog nie opgespoor

kon word nie, het Nina se ouers, Louis en Elsjé Linde van Laerskool Louis Trichardt, die hulp van die polisie en Soutpansberg Dorpswag ingeroep. ‘n Soekgeselskap is saamgestel, maar nog voordat die soektog amptelik kon begin, het twee dorpswaglede op Jan se liggaam afgekom, skaars ‘n klipgooi van die teerpad af. Hy het homself aan ‘n boom opgehang.

Sy familie is dadelik in kennis gestel. Sally, wat in daardie stadium met die vliegtuig op pad terug was huis toe, kon gelukkig die nuus eerste by Jannie en Nina hoor. Die nuus van Jan se dood het soos ‘n veldbrand deur die dorp versprei. Volgens die familie het hy die afgelope twee jaar ‘n geweldige stryd teen erge depressie gevoer.

“Wie gaan ons nou begrawe?” het menige inwoner met hartseer en verslaentheid opgemerk. Jan, wat vir ongeveer 20 jaar gewerk het by die plaaslike Avbob-tak, was geliefd vir die vriendelike en simpatieke wyse waarop hy met bedroefde families gewerk het. “Al was hy nie meer by Avbob nie, wou ek nog steeds deur ou Jan begrawe word,” het meer as een persoon opgemerk.

Jan, wat op 4 Januarie sy 51ste verjaarsdag gevier het, was vir die afgelope jaar werksaam by Limpopo Melkery. Hy was ook vir baie jare aktief betrokke as ‘n ouderling van die NG Moedergemeente. Jongmense sal hom onthou as leier van die kerk se jeuggroep, die Frogs.

Jan, wat oorspronklik van Brits kom, het daar vir Sally op skool ontmoet. Die egpaar is later getroud en het bietjie rondgetrek voordat hulle in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) kom bly het. Altwee hulle kinders, Jannie en Anél, is hier gebore. ‘n Roudiens vir wyle Jan is Woensdag vanuit die NG Moedergemeente gehou. Die familie het ‘n spesiale woord van dank gehad vir die hulp en bystand wat hulle van die Makhado SAPD, die Soutpansberg Dorpswag en personeel van Laerskool Louis Trichardt se koshuis ontvang het.

“Almal het ingespring en ons gehelp; baie dankie.”

Hulle het ook elke persoon bedank vir hul boodskappe van bemoediging en vertroosting.

Evidence of Caltex South Africa’s com­ mitment to having the unsightly painted logo removed was already visible on Tuesday, with a team of cleaners, armed with high­ pressure hoses, spotted on the koppie to remove the paint. What this exercise is costing Caltex is not known. Photo supplied.

By Andries van Zyl

Caltex logo sparks huge controversy (Contd from P1) Although condemning the incident, he was, however, not very shocked. “People just seem to do their own thing, despite the rules and regulations. You see it every day; for example, people driving at 150km an hour on the N1, despite the traffic rules and regulations. It’s like that with the environment as well,” McMurtrie said.

Chevron, under which the Caltex brand is marketed in South Africa, was asked on Monday whether they were aware of the painting of the koppie and what action they had taken to rectify the situation. Ms Suzanne Pullinger, communications manager at Chevron South Africa (Pty) Limited’s head office in Cape Town, responded by email on Tuesday. She states: “Caltex had no knowledge of

this proposed activity and are opposed to it. Building strong community relationships and protecting the environment in which we operate are core values of our corporation. We have instructed the parties concerned to request its immediate removal and will be counselling them with regard to the inappropriate and unauthorized use of our corporate brand.”

With regard to the removal of the painted sign and fears that it will have further destructive consequences for the environment, Pullinger says: “The removal of the sign is a complicated process and special effort has been made to minimize the impact on the environment.

We ask for the patience of the community in this matter and would like to assure all parties that we are taking every precau-

tion to ensure that the removal happens as quickly and as safely as possible.”

Evidence of Caltex’s commitment to having the unsightly painted logo removed was already visible on Tuesday with a team of cleaners, armed with high-pressure hoses, spotted on the koppie to remove the paint.

What this exercise is costing Caltex is not known.

It must be said that, despite overwhelming outrage over the painted koppie, there were those who liked it. “I tnk its beautiful [sic],” wrote Fhatuwani Mulaudzi on the Facebook page of Limpopo Mirror, the Zoutpansberger’s sister publication. On the same page, Mphophenyu Moshapo wrote: “Brilliant marketing strategy, i hope they used environment friendly products … go green [sic].”

As jy kan loop, is jy sterk en kan ontslaan word ... Dit was blykbaar die mededeling wat perso­ neel van die Louis Trichardt Gedenkhospitaal aan ‘n bejaarde emfiseem­ en asmapasiënt gegee het kort voordat hy ontslaan is.

Die pasiënt, mnr. Dries van Niekerk (72), is direk na sy ontslag uit dié staatshospitaal opgeneem in die Zoutpansberg Privaathospitaal, waar hy die volgende dag (22 April) oorlede is.

Van Niekerk se buurman van ‘n paar huisies verder by Laat Lente en Herfsakker was ‘n week na die gebeure nog steeds geskok. “Ek wil eendag net hier in my huisie doodgaan, net nie in die staatshospitaal nie,” sê mnr. Gert Duvenhage (69).

Hy het Van Niekerk op Sondag, 21 April, op die vloer tussen sy hospitaalbed en bedkassie aangetref. Die bedkassie was onderstebo en alles bo-op het die wêreld vol gespat. Toe Duvenhage sy vriend se persoonlike besittings weer van die vloer begin optel het, sê hy, was hy geskok oor die hoeveelheid kokkerotte in die hospitaal.

“Ek sal daardie gesig en daardie geroepery nooit vergeet nie. Dries het aan my gesê dat die bedkassie onderstebo was omdat hy tevergeefs probeer het om hulle [verpleegsters] aandag te trek. Hy het van die bed afgeval. Hy het ook geroep, ‘Eina, eina, hulle het my seergemaak’, ” sê Duvenhage en vertel voorts dat ‘n aantal mense in die saal besig was met werkies en hulle glad nie aan die pasiënt op die vloer gesteur het nie. “Toe ek probeer om hom weer op die bed te kry, het een my kom help,” sê Duvenhage.

Nadat Van Niekerk terug was op die bed, het Duvenhage ‘n suster gaan roep. “Sy het vir my gesê hy kan huis toe gaan, want hy is sterk en kan

self loop en sy het vir my sy pille saamgegee,” sê Duvenhage. Dit was die Sondag en Van Niekerk was reeds ‘n paar dae in die staatshospitaal, nadat Duvenhage die buurtwag en die ambulans laat kom het om sy buurman na die hospitaal te neem.

“Daar in die staatshospitaal het Dries vir my gelyk of hy tussen lewe en dood hang. Die Saterdagnag het hy my twee-uur gebel en gesê ek moet gou kom en sy eie draagbare suurstofmasjientjie kom regmaak, wat ek gedoen het. Met sy opname het hy al geskreeu, ‘Help, help, ek gaan dood’, maar dit het baie lank geneem voordat hulle hom op ‘n drip gekry het,” onthou Duvenhage.

Die Limpopo Departement van Gesondheid en Maatskaplike Ontwikkeling het navrae oor Van Niekerk, sy behandeling en die toestande in die hospitaal beantwoord. Hulle het bevestig dat Van Niekerk op 18 April by die Louis Trichardt Gedenkhospitaal aangekom het en later opgeneem is en op 21 April ontslaan is. “Die rede vir sy ontslag is dat die pasiënt gestabiliseer het en sy toestand verbeter het,” het provinsiale woordvoerder, Sinenhlanhla Gumede, Maandag per e-pos geantwoord. Volgens Gumede het die hospitaal geen rekord daarvan dat Van Niekerk van sy bed afgeval het nie. “Die hospitaal het hoegenaamd geen uitdaging (challenge) ondervind om kwaliteit gesondheidsorg en diens aan die pasiënt gedurende sy verblyf aldaar te verskaf nie,” sê Gumede. Wat die kokkerotte aanbetref, was die antwoord dat die gebou gereeld uitgerook word en dat daar geen risiko vir of voorvalle van kokkerotinfestasie is nie. Gumede sê dat indien daar per toeval enige kokkerotte sou wees, dit ‘n geïsoleerde voorval sou wees.

Still no SA version of Morant murders?

The filming of the re­enactment of the night attack by the BVC on a house where Boer soldiers lodged took place at the house that formerly belonged to the late Betty Noakes. The Stone Henge property now belongs to Mr Eddie da Silva and is a listed heritage site. Insert: One of the Boer soldiers, defending himself during the night attack.

One re­enactment of the Morant documentary that was very close to the real deal, was when the firing squad of four men, armed with four .303 rifles charged with blanks, fired into the back of Ronnie Visser (right), playing the role of his great grandfather’s brother, Floris Visser.

On the left side, Ronnie can be seen kneeling in the sand, waiting for the rest of the squad to come and fire.

Prof Louis Changuion (left) meets Australian Nic Bleszynski, who had his dream come true of having the contents of his book on Morant recorded as a dramatized documentary.

The filming of the ‘Breaker’ Morant docu­ mentary in the Soutpansberg area by Breaker Productions Australia, in co­operation with a South African team, although exciting, did not match the expectation that “at last the South African version of the actions (atrocities?) of the Bushveldt Carbineers (BVC) during the Anglo­Boer War would be shown”.

Morant and Peter Handcock were executed by a British firing squad on 27 February 1902 for murdering prisoners of war and civilians. “Breaker” is described as a legendary figure and folk hero by some in Australia.

The production team, with Nic Bleszinski as coauthor and co-director, stayed in the Soutpansberg area from 10 to 21 April, after which they left for the concentration camp cemetery in Polokwane and filming in Pretoria and Johannesburg.

“We got involved after being reassured by the South African component of the production team that this was most certainly going to be a balanced portrayal of the real deal. It would screen the viewpoints of Australian military lawyer James Unkles, as well as the contents of the novel of Nick Bleszinski (Shoot straight you bastards!) and this would all be balanced by our own South African historic input. We soon realised that it was a tall and somewhat wishful objective…” said Charles Leach, author of The legend of Breaker Morant is dead and buried. Leach has been described by Prof Louis Changuion, emeritus professor in history, as probably the leading expert in the world on research about the facts surrounding the BVC involvement in the Zoutpansberg from May 1901 to April 1902.

Some errors during the filming of the reenactments were corrected after Prof Changuion and Leach objected, e.g. that the eight boers were wearing bandoliers after being held prisoner for two days. The fact that a youngster of 14 years was shot with the eight Boers was not shown. The shooting of black witnesses by the BVC in this

incident was not re-enacted. It remains to be seen whether the shooting of Van Staden and his two sons, after they had to dig their own grave, will be screened. “When we prepared the grave, one of the Australians remarked that ‘this is going to make us look really bad’,” said Hardus and Ariëte Haasbroek, on whose farm this scene was filmed.

One re-enactment that was very close to the real deal was when the firing squad of four men, armed with four .303 rifles charged with blanks, fired into the back of Ronnie Visser (31), playing the role of his great-grandfather’s brother, Floris Visser.

This scene was filmed on the farm of Dennis Ball.

“Some pieces of unburned powder actually lodged under his skin, which immediately turned a rather bright pink. Obviously many faces, such as the director’s, producer’s and even the armourer’s, turned equally bright red,” Leach remembers.

There was only one First Aid Kit on site and it was put to good use. Ronnie remarked that he had no idea that he was expected to portray this event so realistically!

“To re-enact what happened stirs up something in your heart, being a direct descendant. But the filming experience was wonderful,” Ronnie said.

Floris Visser was shot after a night attack by the BVC on a house where Boer soldiers lodged. The real attack occurred on the farm Duivelskloof, but was filmed at the house that formerly belonged to the late Betty Noakes. The Stone Henge property now belongs to Mr Eddie da Silva and is a listed heritage site.

Leach concedes that Bleszinski’s dream of having the contents of his book recorded as a dramatized documentary has come true. “That is very commendable. I complimented him on that during my interview and remarked that he had achieved much more than I had,” Leach said.

The time for South Africa to produce an own documentary or film portraying the South African version of the events has probably finally come.

Me. Ingrid Marais, wiskunde departementshoof van die CVO Skool Vivo, het in April besoek afgelê in Amerika om te sien hoe vergelyk hul standaard van wiskunde-onderrig met dié van Suid-Afrika.

Marais het op 6 April na Georgia vertrek op uitnodiging van die Wiskunde Departement van die Universiteit van Georgia. Sy het ondermeer besoek afgelê by staatskole saam met van die universiteit se doktorale studente.

Marais het met haar terugkeer gesê dit is opvallend dat die meeste leerders dieselfde probleme met wiskunde ondervind as ons leerders tuis.

“Dit is alombekend dat die Amerikaanse kurrikulum ‘a mile wide and an inch deep’ is. Daar is te veel onderwerpe wat behandel moet word, met die gevolg dat onderwerpe net oppervlakkig bespreek word,” het Marais gesê. Volgens Marais steek baie van die Amerikaanse wiskunde-onderwysers nou kers op by Singapoer, wat as die wêreldleier op die gebied van wiskunde-onderrig beskou word.

Op 11 April gee me. Marais ‘n lesing wat handel oor die Suid-Afrikaanse wiskunde kurrikulum en beklemtoon die probleme wat Suid Afrikaanse onderwys tans beleef en bygedra het tot Suid Afrika se swak prestasie in die TIMMS (Third International Math and Science) navorsing.

Hierdie navorsing het ‘n studie gedoen van 62 lande waartydens die wiskundevaardigheid van leer­ders getoets is. Suid-Afrika het heel laaste gekom in hierdie navorsing. “Kommer heers tans of die onderwyssisteem die Suid Afrikaanse ekonomiese groei en ontwikkeling in die toekoms sal kan steun.

Volgens die WNNR vaar ongeveer 80% van ons Deur Linda van der Westhuizen

Dapper Stapper was vir alle bejaardes Die organiseerders van die Grab-a-Granny/ Dapper Stapper–rolstoelwedren en pretloop wil graag daarop wys dat die fondse wat deur die geleentheid ingesamel word, nie uitsluitlik vir een instansie aangewend word nie.

“Die projek gaan daaroor om al die bejaardes in die dorp op een of ander manier te probeer bystaan.

Die fondse word nie net vir Ons Tuiste ingesamel nie, maar word gedeel deur Ons Tuiste, Laat Lente en Herfsakker, asook Gister-se-Jeugklub,” sê organiseerders Lucas en Rina Vermeulen.

Die organiseerders spreek hulle dank uit teenoor hulle donateurs en gee die versekering dat die fondse nie net vir Ons Tuiste aangewend word soos wat weerspieël is in die berig wat op 3 Mei verskyn het nie, maar vir die dorp se bejaardes in die breë.

Die Vermeulens sê dat sommige donateurs ‘n baie sagte plekkie het vir die minder gegoede bejaardes wat bitter swaar kry en van aalmoese leef en spesifiek bydra omdat hulle ook gehelp word.

Die poging is daarop gemik om alle bejaardes, van die heel behoewendes tot die meer gegoedes, by te staan. “Ons Tuiste kry wel ‘n substansiële gedeelte, aangesien ons van hulle perseel gebruik maak om die dag aan te bied en die rolstoelafdeling ook uit hulle geledere kom,” sê die organiseerders.

Chrisli Markram (regs) was die O/12 wenner van die Dapper Stapper pretloop wat op 27 April gehou is. Hier ontvang sy haar sertifikaat van me. Kittie de Bruin, bestuurder van Ons Tuiste.

Alhoewel die geleentheid by die perseel van ons Tuiste plaasgevind het, gaan die projek daaroor om al die bejaardes in die dorp op een of ander manier by te staan.

skole swak en net 20% redelik tot goed. Dit was egter verblydend om uit hierdie selfde studie tot die gevolgtrekking te kom dat die ou Model C-skole tiende in die wêreld gekom het, voorwaar iets om op trots te wees!” het Marais gesê.

Marais se lesing het wye belangstelling gelok en is gekomplimenteer deur onder andere Professor Denise Spangler, hoof van die wiskunde departement, as “a fantastic colloquium”.

Buiten vir haar besoek aan die Universiteit van Georgia en haar lesing, het Marais ook in Denver, hoofstad van Colorado, die grootste wiskunde kongres in Amerika bygewoon. “Hierdie was ‘n unieke geleentheid om meer van wiskunde-onderrig van die wêreld se voorste lande soos Singapoer en Korea te kon leer. Die Amerikaanse tegnologie is verbysterend en interaktiewe witborde en tablette word in feitlik alle skole gebruik. Sakrekenaars soos die TI-Inspire cx is ‘n grafiese sakrekenaar, gekoppel aan die Internet en onderwysers kan elke leerder se antwoord onmiddellik waarneem!” het Marais gesê. Wat haar die meeste beïndruk het, is die rol wat NASA in wiskunde-onderrig speel en hoe leerders gemotiveer word om verder te studeer in ruimtenavorsing. NASA het ook die CVO Vivo uitgenooi om deel te neem aan ‘n meetkunde lesing, meer spesifiek The Geometry of Lagrange Points.

Hier word leerders se kennis rakende spesiale driehoeke en die toepassing van Pythagoras se stel­ling getoets.

Marais het op 23 April teruggekeer na SuidAfrika. Sy sê dit was ‘n onvergeetlike ondervinding en sy is opgewonde om haar nuut-verworwe kennis met kollegas en leerders te deel.

By Linda van der Westhuizen

Severe depression remains a problem “The issue of toxic thoughts is really the crux of the matter,” Mr Ben Smith, founder of the depression support group in Makhado (Louis Trichardt,) said this week. “Some of those suf­ fering from severe depression do not actually come to the fore,” Smith said.

Ms Hester Beukes, Christian counsellor and former senior social worker, agrees. “A person who is on the verge of suicide does not often come to you.

If you know of somebody who is too desperate to contact us or if you have a family member or friend in that position, please contact us on their behalf to reach out with a helping hand. There is hope,” said Beukes on behalf of the support group. The group have now widened their focus to include anyone facing any kind of disease.

The group wants to cultivate community awareness where the community becomes more supportive. “Let us stand together as a community to become a healthy community filled with peace and wholeness,” Beukes said.

Both Smith and Beukes said they were devastated by the news of the most recent suicide in the community and that they desired to help more people.

In addition, more than one relatively young person in the community died of heart attacks some weeks ago. Beukes said that after getting acquainted with the material of Dr Michele Strydom of Eagles’ Wings Ministries, she realised why youth or fitness is no longer a guarantee for longevity. “In our day, stress management is extremely important and the number one way to handle stress is to change the way you think,” Beukes said. When a person accepts toxic thoughts of anxiety, fear, self-hatred, self-condemnation, self-rejection, anger, rage, bitterness, unforgiveness, jealousy and the likes, it has been medically proven that chemicals and hormones are secreted that are counterproductive to your health.

Following the positive feedback on the support group’s April meeting, the depression support group decided to continue with the DVD series of Dr Michele Strydom. For more information, Smith can be contacted at 082 358 1738 or Beukes at 084 616 2355. The next meeting is at 18:30 on 20 May at the Agapé Christian Centre in Munnik Street.

Kennisgewing van Luggeofisiese Opname Kaart van Area

Hierdie interessante waterspel het baie aandag getrek tydens die Louis Trichardt Boerefees wat van 30 April tot 4 Mei by die skouterrein gehou is.

Andries de Beer van Lugmagbasis Makhado wen die sterkmankompetisie wat op 1 Mei tydens die Louis Trichardt Boerefees by Makhado (Louis Trichardt) se skouterrein plaasgevind het. Hier is Andries besig met die Yoke Walk, ‘n item wat vir die eerste keer plaaslik aangebied is. Leon le Roux, ook van die basis en Andries se oefenmaat by Paul’s Body Shop, was tweede, met Neil Swart van die dorp derde.

The Air Force Base Makhado had an exhibition at the Farmers Expo. From left to right are Cpl Tshifhiwa Manenezhe, L/Cpl Rinae Rathiyaya and Capt Michael Vilakazi at an armament display, with weaponry used on the Hawk MK120.

Kennis word hiermee gegee dat die kontrakteurs Southern Exploration Surveys beplan om namens Universal Coal Development II (Pty) Ltd (UCDII) ‘n lug-magnetiese en radiometriese opname te voltooi oor die area op die kaart hierbo aangedui (in rooi). Die area sluit die plase Cygnus 549MS, Berenice 548MS, Celine 547MS, Doorvaard 355MS, Longford 354MS en Matsuri 358MS in, geleë binne die grense van die Munisipaliteit van Makhado.

Die opname sal gedurende daglig geskied vanaf en na 27 Mei 2013 en sal na verwagting nie langer as vyf dae neem om te voltooi nie.

Die opname sal uitgevoer word met ‘n vastevlerk vliegtuig wat oorwegend noordwes-suidoos lyne 50m uitmekaar gespasieer, sal vlieg op ‘n hoogte van ongeveer 80m bo die grondvlak.

Geen aktiviteite sal op terrein plaasvind nie behalwe in ‘n noodgeval.

Die inligting uit die opname verkry sal deur die UCDII wetenskaplikes gebruik word om die geologie van die area te interpreteer met spesifieke toepassing op die struktuur, grondwater en topografie.

Rig asseblief navrae ten opsigte van die opname aan Jaco Malan, Posbus 2423, Brooklyn Square, 0075, telefoon 0124600805 of e-pos j.malan@universalcoal. com.

Tannie Anne word 100 PETROL DIESEL PARAFFIEN

Tannie Anne Bressler van Makhado (Louis Trichardt) vier hierdie week haar 100ste ver­ jaardag.

Sy het Woensdag (8 Mei) verjaar aan’t huis van haar een dogter, Naomi Stander, waar sy die afgelope tien jaar versorg word. Sy is tans bedlêend.

Die twee ander dogters, Petra Henning van Nelspruit en Monica Uys van Pretoria, saam met die oorblywende broer, Hansie Bressler van Secunda, sal die naweek op die dorp byeenkom. Drie van haar seuns is die afgelope drie jaar oorlede.

Tannie Anne is op 8 Mei 1913 as ‘n nooi Snyman op Elandskuil naby Ventersdorp gebore. Sy het later jare op Germiston in ‘n klerefabriek gewerk.

Na haar troue met Bybs (Johannes Petrus) Bressler, het die egpaar hulle op Carolina gevestig, waar Bybs ‘n plaas en motorhawe besit het.

Tannie Anne was al die jare intens betrokke by die werksaamhede van die Suid-Afrikaanse Vroue Federasie (SAVF). Na hul aftrede het die egpaar hul belange op Carolina verkoop en hulle in Middelburg gevestig, waar hulle nog steeds betrokke was by gemeenskapsorg-aksies.

Oom Bybs is op 10 Augustus 2003 in die ouderdom van 91 oorlede. Hy sou vanjaar 104 jaar oud gewees het.

Tannie Anne is ma van sewe kinders, ouma van 17 kleinkinders en grootouma van 23 agterkleinkinders.

Crime prevention

Remember to lock The Makhado Police have once again raised the alarm with regard to the recent spate of thefts out of motor vehicles.

They called upon members of the public to ensure that they park their vehicles in a safe environment at all times and especially if they go shopping.

The police also warned residents not to leave any valuable items inside their vehicles and to make sure that they always lock all doors before leaving their car. According to the Makhado SAPS, items such as handbags, cellphones and large amounts of cash have been reported stolen to them.

Residents are particularly cautioned not to park their vehicles along Songozwi Street, the parking areas in big shopping complexes and the taxi rank, because “this is where a number of illegal activities take place.”

Notice is given that contractors Southern Exploration Surveys, working on behalf of Universal Coal Development II (Pty) Ltd (UCDII), intend to conduct an airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the area indicated above (red hatched) covering the farms Cygnus 549MS, Berenice 548MS, Celine 547MS, Doorvaard 355MS, Longford 354MS and Matsuri 358MS located within the boundaries of the Municipality of Makhado.

Survey operations will commence during daylight hours on or after 27 May 2013, and are not expected to exceed five days active duration.

The survey will utilise a fixed wing aeroplane flying predominantly northwestsoutheast lines spaced 50 metres apart, at a height of approximately 80 metres above the ground.

No ground operations are anticipated except in the case of an emergency.

The data acquired will be used by UCDII scientists to improve geological understanding of the area, with applications to structure, groundwater and topography.

Please address any enquiries regarding this survey to Jaco Malan, PO Box 2423, Brooklyn Square, 0075, telephone 0124600805 or e-mail j.malan@universalcoal.com.

Ons is groot dank en waardering ook verskuldig aan Danie en Val Louw, asook hulle neef, Dave Carr (van Upington) vir die voorsiening en gebruik van hulle kosbare kapkar en pragtige perde.

Daar was ander Soutpansbergers soos ‘Dok’ Lappies en Jan Louw wat van hulle familie se erfstukke beskikbaar gestel het vir die kameraspan, asook ander mense waarvan ek nie eens bewus was nie.

Dankie ook aan ons plaaslike Dorpswag, verteenwoordig deur Dirk en sy seun, wat bygestaan het tydens die ‘nagaanval’ by ‘Stonehenge.’

Dan ook ‘n groot waardering aan al die mense – oud en jonk – een selfs ‘n direkte afstammeling, wat opgetree het as ekstras en wat hulle harte - en amper meer - uitgespeel het.

Dankie ook aan ons perde-eienaars en hulle ruiters wat ‘n plesier was om te aanskou.

Ons is almal trots op julle, selfs op dié wat soms Britse uniforms gedra het!

Die Gilfillan-familie en hulle personeel van Lalapanzi het, soos altyd, ‘n uitstaande en uiters vriendelike diens aan die besoekers gelewer, al het dit soms hare op die tande gekos.

My personal gratitude extends to Petria Marias, Prof Louis Changuion, Adv Peter Latta and Linda van der Westhuizen of the Zoutpansberger, whose commitment to the South African truth of the Bushveldt Carbineers story is so uncompromising and alive and must certainly have impacted on the producers. ­ Charles Leach (Zoutpansberg Skirmishes Heritage Foundation)

k hou van tuin maak, veral my groentetuin. Die saad wat oorbly bêre ek in houertjies. Wanneer ek die pitte in die houertjies weer wil gebruik, weet ek nie altyd watter soort groente dit is nie en moet ek wag tot dit begin vrugte dra om te weet wat dit is.

So sê vers 16: “Aan hulle vrugte sal julle hulle ken.” Jesus het gesê ‘n goeie boom dra goeie vrugte en ‘n slegte boom dra slegte vrugte.

So was dit met die profete wat met die mense oor God gepraat het. Sommige was ware profete wat die Woord opreg verkondig het en die mense gewaarsky het om hulle van hulle sondes te bekeer en op Christus te vertrou vir hul saligheid. Dan was daar ook vals profete wat leuens vertel het oor die saligheid en mense mislei het.

Jesus het gesê ons moet kyk na die wyse waarop mense lewe. Lewe hulle in gehoorsaamheid aan God of nie? Het hulle waarlik liefde vir ander? Het hulle God lief?

So is dit vandag nog. Daar is baie wat voorgee om leraars van Christus te wees.

Vergelyk wat hulle verkondig met die Woord van God. As hulle nie heilig lewe nie, moet hulle nie volg nie, want God se kinders verkondig en lewe sodat Jesus verheerlik word. Aan hulle vrugte sal julle hulle ken. Wat van jou?

Die skrifgedeelte sê as ons nie lewe soos wedergebore kinders van God nie, sal ons uitgekap word.

Mag jou geloof ‘n lewende geloof wees, wat vrugte dra tot eer van Jesus Christus ons Verlosser. ­ 079 5168303

LTA very excited about Kremetart Stage Race The Limpopo Tourism Agency (LTA) has encouraged cyclists to come and take part in the 24th annual PPC Kremetart Cycling Race during a special media launch held on Monday.

The race will be held from 7 to 9 June, and with less than five weeks to go, cycling fever is mounting in Makhado (Louis Trichardt), who will host more than a thousand cyclists, their families and supporters.

LTA’s chief executive officer, Mr Nocks Seabi, said during the launch that they were excited to be part of such an important tourism driver in the province. The LTA head office in the province, the Makhado Info Centre on the corner of Songozwi Street and the N1, will once again be the starting and finishing point for the cycling race.

Also speaking at the media launch was the race organiser from the P&L Cycling Club, Ms Renda Alexander. She confirmed that cycling entries for the 175km four-stage race will be limited to 1 500 entries. Entries that they have received since entries opened in February had already passed the

600 mark on Monday.

For cyclists, the PPC Kremetart Race will afford the opportunity to participate in South Africa’s only one-day stage race, with some of the country’s top cyclists and teams participating.

Alexander also said that the club had already received bookings from cyclists as far as Namibia and Belgium. The tandem category, she said, had also elicited a record number of entries.

This year, the race organisers have also arranged more than one spectator bus to accommodate supporters of the race. There will also be lots of entertainment for family and friends of cyclists in the family fun village. For the less adventurous, there is a 70km road race, a kid’s race and a 10km fun race. For mountain bikers, there will be a cross-country race on the Sunday, which will also be a qualifying race for Limpopo colours.

God’s Plan cyclists again to visit Zim The God’s Plan Cycle Tour once again passed through Makhado (Louis Trichardt) last Friday on their way to Beit Bridge.

The Zoutpansberger caught up with the team as they stopped to catch their breath and stretch their legs at the Caltex fuel station on the corner of Hlanganani and Boabab Street. The tour is the brainchild of race coordinator Allan Corry.

The God’s Plan tour started almost a week before, when the group departed from Brakpan to cover the 600km to the border town of Musina. Corry had

been creating awareness for the plight of Zimbabwean residents when Riaan Swanepoel, one of the cyclists, came on board. He decided to devote his energy to raising funds, which led to the formation of the God’s Plan Tour.

Initially, the group aimed to raise enough money to build a school in Zimbabwe. This plan, however, fell through when the group failed to secure property in Zimbabwe on which to build the school.

Since then, they have taken the Ankura Academy, a border town school, under their wings.

On the first day of the group’s trip, they travelled 166km from Brakpan, passing through Benoni and Pretoria, stopping at Bela-Bela. On day two, they stopped over in Polokwane after pedalling 172km. On Friday, the group stopped over in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) to replenish their energy levels and prepare their bicycles for the gruelling trip over the mountain, all the way to the Ankura Academy.

Since the group became involved with the school, several children have benefited and have been able to finish their studies.
