DANGEROUS MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT BULLYING ·FALSE: ADULTS SHOULD STAY OUT OF IT WHEN CHILDREN ARE BULLIED Adults must become involved. Teachers can monitor bullies to deter bullying behaviour.

Principals can discipline. Parents can report to schools. ·FALSE: BOYS ARE THE MOST LIKELY VICTIMS Both boys and girls are equally susceptible to bullying, although perhaps in different ways.

Both boys and girls are the targets of physical bullying. Girls are more likely to experience relational, sexual and cyberbullying. ·FALSE: CHILDREN SHOULD JUST TOUGHEN UP This myth is a hangover from ideas like “boys will be boys” and that children will “work it out”. Bullying can cause real harm and should not be ignored. ·FALSE: BYSTANDERS SHOULD STAY OUF OF IT WHEN THEY WITNESS BULLYING Evidence suggests that bystanders are also affected by witnessing bullying. Observers also give bullies the audiences that they crave, and legitimacy if they do not sanction the behaviour.

Children can be taught to reduce bullying by noticing, reporting and intervening. ·FALSE: IT IS EASY TO SPOT A BULLIED CHILD Children do not report everything that happens in their lives to their parents. Adults need to find ways to make reporting bullying easier for children, and to follow up effectively when they do.

A call for beneficiation MP Premier made a call for beneficiation DD Mabuza had remarks during the Summit held at Nutting House Nelspruit this is what he said. “We have come to the conclusion of this momentous gathering of our glorious movement - the African National Congress.

W

hen we took a decision that to hold a provincial economic summit, we did this against a backdrop of a world economy that is stagnant, fragile and in most cases declining to levels last seen during the financial crisis.

The world economy is intertwined, interdependent and what happens globally has a direct impact on our economy.

The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development reports that due to what it calls stalled industrialization in the Sub Saharan Africa, African countries are not likely to see another commodity-led boom soon.

This is indeed a wake-up call to us South Africans who are overly depended on commodity prices that are not supported by beneficiation. It talks directly to us as a mining Province.

In his statement he included the resolutions of the commissions which resulted for urgent attention to beneficiation of all products.

A call for beneficiation We have already made pronouncement on using state sponsored projects to support co-operatives that will supply the feeding schemes, build people's housing projects and supply linen to hospitals. All these will be backed by products that are manufactured and produced by our own small enterprises and cooperatives.

Partnership with Department of Small Businesses We welcome the commitment made by Cde Lindiwe Zulu, that her department of small business development is taking a leading role in supporting black-owned small and emerging businesses through state owned Developmental Finance Institutions (DFIs) like Small Enterprise Finance Agency ( SEFA) and Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA) Partnership with Dardlea We appreciate and are grateful of the financial and technical support that our farmers are receiving from the national department of agriculture, rural development and land affairs.

We are also beginning to see a new phenomenon where land that was leased to black farmers is now sub-leased to white farmers. People need to know that they cannot sub-lease without the written prior concern of the land owner. We would like to once more call upon Amakhosi nezinduna to stop allocating fertile agricultural land for settlement purpose. We appeal to them to work with municipalities on this issue and find lasting solutions on land use.

A different model for cooperatives in agriculture & agro processing As government we need to consider a pilot project in agricultural sector where we assist a collective of many cooperatives to form backward and forward linkages that includes primary cooperatives, secondary cooperatives and tertiary cooperatives under one umbrella body.

This will give our people competitive advantage through economies of scale; allow them to play a meaning role in the mainstream economy like all other well established companies that started as cooperatives in this country. If we fail to do this our people will remain in the periphery of economic activities in this province. The much talked about radical economic transformation will become a pipe dream.

Manufacturing This is positive development for us and we need to capitalize on it. Significant investment by our SOEs and the private sector will lead to other related industries benefiting and also investing thus resulting in quality income linkages as well.

Mining Mining is one such industry that has the capacity to positively but sometimes very negatively impact on other industries particularly manufacturing. The recent decline in mining caused by the collapse of commodity prices had a domino adverse effect on other sectors.

I am also made to understand that DMR was invited to this summit and for reasons unknown to us chose not to come. Our youth in this province are not given opportunities to become junior miners, yet people who come from outside the province get first preference.

I do not believe that the Ministry is aware of this and I will raise it with the Minister of DMR. Township and rural economies We therefore expect MEGA in partnership with the Department of Small Business Development to occupy this

Sero Report I appeal to branches of the movement to engage with the Socio economic report to provide responses and address the issues that are raised in that report.

Wayforward We have met deliberated and made proposals. The question is what next. Is this the end of it? Are we going back home and continue with our business as usual? I suggest that the resolutions of this conference should find expression in the Premier's Coordinating Forum (PCF).

space and provide much needed support to our people.

This will bring hope in an environment that is devoid of hope. We expect this to be done within a very short space of time.

Thinking alone is not enough!

5. Create a detached involvement as if “you” are in a “higher place” In doing this people will look to you as if there is something more to you than your mere physical presence.

Minimum requirements: · Grade 12 · A minimum E symbol for English Second Language HG or a minimum D symbol for English Second Language SG is required Gert Sibande TVET college offers N1 to N6 engineering, and N4 to N6 business and service programmes.

6. Connect deeply with the individual Here rapport is vital. When you are with people you need to put aside all of your distractions, obligations and problems to focus completely on the person or people you to whom you are speaking.

In the case of Engineering Studies, each level requires 4 subjects and is offered over a period of 10 weeks or a trimester.

In business and services related programmes, each level requires 4 subjects and is offered over a period of 6 months or a semester.

7. “Chunk Up” whenever possible This may be a bit abstract to grasp but it's important to creating an appeal because it forces people to think in bigger terms. When you do consistently if gives the impression that you are always thinking bigger than them. “Chunking Up” is an NLP term that means referring to something that contains what is spoken about as a subset . It can also refer to something that controls or has a larger reach than the topic at hand. Adios!

It is also important to note that enrolments take place every trimester for engineering programmes, and every semester for business and services programmes.

Connect deeply within...

There is an ingenious compromise.

Be accessible as a person but present your knowledge and wisdom as being rare, expensive, mysterious, and only for those who are truly ready for it.

T

his compromise allows you to build deep personal bonds with people yet have them want more or your presence... as well as be willing to pay for it.

Keep in mind that one cult leader, 2000 years ago, would speak to anyone who would listen but he granted his most sacred attention to his 12 closest disciples.

You can add to this compromise by having “special times” when you are not accessible to anyone.

You can tell people that you are meditating, or doing your “spiritual practice” but you don't have to say anything. It's the mystery of why you are absent that you want to cultivate.

3. Imply Secret Knowledge

The role of simply remaining calm and silent will recur again in this essay so I can't understate it.

Here is where silence is worth a 1000 words. Saying things like “Hmmm... There are 100 possible solutions to that within your own mind.” and nothing else implies things that you know and that they should know.

4. Remaining calm as if allknowing Any sharp change in your emotional state, with the exception of joy and laughter, should be minimized.

Any leader/teacher who goes on an angry rant is demonstrating their own lack of control. If you truly have control it should be demonstrated by an unshakable calm as if everything is happening just as you knew it would.

I've always remembered that the scariest martial artist are the ones that don't talk or threaten... they calmly do what they have to do and walk away.

1. NATED The entry requirement for Report 191 (Nated) programmes is a grade 12 certificate with specific subjects and pass percentages applicable to the various Nated Programmes. After completing N6 theory in the classroom, students need to acquire 18 months relevant, practical work experience, after which they can apply for the National Diploma.

How do I qualify for my

National Diploma?

The N6-certificate in Business Studies and Services programmes take a minimum of 18 months to complete.

Thereafter students have to complete a further 18 months or 2000 hours of relevant practical experience in their area of study to obtain a National Diploma.

For Engineering Studies, students can complete their N4 to N6 certificates in minimum period of one year. A further 18 months of relevant practical experience is required to obtain a National N Diploma 2. NCV The National Certificate (Vocational) NCV courses are offered over three levels each of one year duration namely, Level 2 (NQF2) Level 3 (NQF 3) and Level 4 (NQF 4). The programmes include theory and practice/skills.

They also provide students with the opportunity to participate in Workplace Based Experience (WBE) during study. The subject combinations in each of the programmes provide a high degree of specialisation for a particular economic sector e.g.

Hospitality.

Entry requirements: ·A certificate in Grade 9 or higher.

Mkhondo Local Municipality hereby invites reputable service providers to submit Tenders for the tenders listed above. Tender documents can be collected at Mkhondo Municipal Offices from Friday07/10/2016. A non-refundable deposit of R300.00 will be charged for each tender document. Tender briefings will be held at the municipality town hall at the above mentioned times.

Sealed envelopes must be addressed to: The Municipal Manager, Mkhondo Municipality, PO Box 23, Piet Retief, 2380 marked with the correct Bid Name and number, submitted in the 'TENDER BOX' situated at Mkhondo Local Municipality Offices, Corner Mark and De wet, Piet Retief, not later than the closing date specified above,time 12H00.

It has been observed that the provision of social services such as social grants including scholar transport and education facilities, access to medical assistance through mobile clinics and emergency services are being implemented and recognizes and commends the efforts made by the various departments in this regard.

U

nfortunately, when it comes to safety and security major concerns were registered.

Another serious observation identified is the poor conditions of the farm roads which impact negatively especially when ambulances are to attend to emergencies.

The long distances children

have to walk to catch the bus is another concern. In some cases they have to walk alone in in isolated places for a distance of about five kilometres. Crime was also registered as serious concern, particularly alcohol related crimes and farm attacks, crop and stock theft have severe and often long term social and economic impacts on the entire farm dweller community.

Recommendations It is recommended that rural road infrastructure be prioritized to better enable mobile clinics, emergency ambulance services and scholar transport systems to operate.

The Provincial Department of Education expands its

development of boarding facilities to improve access to education for farm dweller children.

The Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport consider the appointment and training of farm dwellers to ensure the safety of scholars using the school transport system both at the pick-up sites and drop-off sites and between these sites and the scholar's homesteads as part of its expanded public works programme.

The farm dwellers' representatives be included in rural safety priority committees and forums and farm security plans as a matter of course.
