KOUGA DAM REACHES 18%

Water allocation slashed by 90%

ROM next week more than 200 citrus, vegetable and dairy farms in the Gamtoos River Valley could have their annual water allocation for 2017/18 slashed by as much as 90%.

This as the Kouga Dam reaches 18% capacity – a level last witnessed in late 1991. Just 2mm of rain fell in the Kouga Dam’s catchment area from April to June this year. According to Gamtoos Irrigation Board (GIB) CEO Pierre Joubert, the Department of Water Affairs will make the call ahead of the new water year on July 1 based on the current available supply. For the affected farmers, the impending cut in water allocations is dire. GIB board member Rudolf Rose grew up in the region and farms maize, lucerne and vegetables. “On a full water allocation, we are able to plant 350 hectares of combined crops annually,” says Rose. “With a 10% allocation, we will be lucky if we even plant 40ha. If that’s the case, we will have to concentrate on our higher income crops that are less water intensive, such as pumpkin and butternut. It’s a definite crisis. “The lucerne will survive, but we’ll get no yield from that crop. The maize is too water intensive to plant. Even with a full allocation of water in 2016/17, we battled because of the very low rainfall. Now the dam is low, and that is our last line of defence.” Jobs are also hanging in the balance.

Water allocation might be slashed by 90% Continued from page 1 “IF farmers can’t plant their full allocation of crops, there is no need for those workers,” says Rose. “We operate with a fairly small contingent of staff, and I have not had to cut back yet.” Fellow GIB board member Jacques du Preez also farms in the area. Focusing on sweet potato, carrots, maize and wheat, he employs up to 40 staff. “I’ve been farming for 20 years. We took the decision in April not to plant maize for 2017/18, and to cut back slightly on the rest of the crop production. We will then use our water allocation for 2017/18 to get that crop to harvest in August/September,” says Du Preez. “If by then there have been no further rains, there is no Plan B. We’ll have to cross that bridge when we come to it, but I am staying positive.” Maintenance The crisis escalated the importance of savings for the irrigation board, which on June 16 emGamtoos Irrigation Board senior water control officer Andrew Murray shows repair work done to the 69km main canal which leads from the Kouga Dam to the Loerie Dam and surrounding farms. The canal has been drained for two weeks for its annual repair and maintenance.

barked on a 16-day maintenance and repair shutdown of its main canal leading water from the Kouga Dam to the Loerie Dam – which feeds the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro and surrounding farms. The annual shutdown of the 69km canal – and, at staggered intervals, the other 45km of branch canals – has become key to the irrigation board keeping its water losses low. Over the past year GIB has reported water losses of just 7.5%, mainly from leaks and evaporation – down from 13% in 2008 when it received a national accolade for water savings. GIB’s losses are also dramatically lower than those of cities such as the Metro, which reports annual losses of between 30% and 40%. “We have a robust water management system,” says Joubert. “When a leak is reported, we aim to address it within the hour.” Joubert says GIB wants to reduce losses even further through the refurbishment and replacement of ailing infrastructure. “Our infrastructure was laid in 1970, so it requires ongoing maintenance,” he said, adding that the irrigation board spent R23-million annually on maintenance and operations.” GIB Financial Manager Rienette Colesky says the consistent maintenance of the irrigation board’s infrastructure was key to reducing water losses. “We have quite an advanced water management and metering system, which also helps keep water losses low,” says Colesky. “For us, being pro-active in maintaining our infrastructure has been a key driver in our success.”

Municipality to block electricity THE grace period has lapsed and Kouga Municipality is set to start cutting the electricity of households whose municipal accounts are in arrears. Executive Mayor Elza van Lingen says the municipality gave account until June 20 to settle their debt or to make arrangements to pay it off. “The blocking and cutting of electricity were put on hold for this grace period,” says Van Lingen. “We wish to thank everyone who made arrangements to settle their arrears. “The municipality will now start to block or cut electricity to those households who have not made arrangements.”

Van Lingen further reminds residents that all municipal pay-points will close at 12:00 on Friday, June 30. “The early closure is necessary to allow the municipality to close off its books for the 2016/2017 financial year. Friday is the last day of the current financial year,” she says. This arrangement will only affect those wanting to make payments directly at municipal offices, including the Kouga Traffic Department at Humansdorp. Residents will still, however, be able to make internet banking payments or pay at external pay-points such as the Post Office, pay@, Ackermans, Shoprite/Checkers/ Usave, Spar, Pick n Pay, Pep Stores, EasyPay, My eBills and Boxer.

Wildsfees: kuns kry ‘lewe’ HEILIE COMBRINCK

DIE jaarlikse SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees,

wat hierdie naweek plaasvind is wild van pret, maar die skone kunste kom ook in die kollig.

’n Nuutjie by vanjaar se fees is plaaslike kunstenaar Hilde Alet Malan, wat by die ATKV sitrusstasie in aksie sal wees. Buiten om te skilder, is sy ook die produksie-bestuurder van die plaas Stuck van Acht naby Patensie. “My kuns is eiesoortig, ek het my eie tegniek wat steeds elke dag ontwikkel. Dit is iets baie persoonlik wat emosies en gevoelens vasvang,” sê Hilde wie se kuns sedert 2015 gesogte items vir vele

kuns-liefhebbers geword het. Sy gebruik verskillende mediums vir haar teken- en verfwerke. “Vir my gaan die twee hand aan hand omdat mens met lyn en beweging in beide vorms werk. Kuns maak dit vir my moontlik om myself te verloor en op dieselfde tyd ook te vind,” sê Hilde. Sy toer graag en vind inspirasie oral waar sy gaan. Dit is ook vir haar lekker om iets vir iemand te maak wat by hulle styl of idees pas, maar steeds uitstaan as ’n Hilde Alet Malan kunswerk. Sy is op die bestuur van ATKV Patensie en sal hierdie naweek by die ATKV se sitrusstasie by die Wildsfees

in aksie te sien wees. Besoekers aan dié stalletjie kan kyk hoe Hilde se tekeninge onder haar skeppende hande vorm en lewe kry. By dié stalletjie is daar verskillende sitrusvariëteite en besoekers kan proe hoekom die vallei bekend is vir sy sitrus. Daar is ook ander interessanthede sowel as lekker doendinge en kosdemonstrasies op Vrydag 15:00, Saterdag 11:00 en 15:00 en Sondag 11:00. Verder kan besoekers uiting gee aan hulle kreatiewe kant op ’n graffitimuur, ’n foto neem saam met die sitrusmannetjies, hoor watter Afrikaanse idioom as die beste bekroon word of sommer net lui-lekker ontspan met ’n sitrusdrinkdingetjie op die sofa.

Ann Dry tree af na 43 jaar in die onderwys MONIQUE BASSON “EK gaan my skoolfamilie mis, veral die omgee vir mekaar,” sê Ann Dry (65) wat einde vandeesweek die leisels by die Hankey Primêre Skool neerlê. Dry, wat in Port Elizabeth grootgeword het, was die afgelope 32 jaar ’n Graad 2-onderwyseres by dié skool waar menige leerders deur haar vaardige hande gegaan het. Sy was ook aktief by die skool se sport en kultuur betrokke. Wanneer sy nie by die skool was nie, het sy aandklasse vir ouer inwoners aangebied. Dry het haar onderwysloopbaan in 1974 by die George Jakes Skool in Alicedale afgeskop, waarna sy in 1979 by die Kleinfontein Primêre Skool in Hankey aangesluit het as die

Graad 1-onderwyseres en later die waarnemende skoolhoof. “Die beste oomblikke van my onderwysloopbaan is om die sien hoe leerders vorder en wanneer oud-leerders my jare later raakloop en bedank vir die verskil wat ek in hul lewe gemaak het. Ek vra hul altyd: was dit ten goede of nie ten goede, en hul antwoord is altyd, ‘ten goede Juffrou’,” sê Dry. Benewens haar skoolfamilie, gaan sy die geraas van die leerders mis, sê Dry wat ’n passie vir kinders en ouer mense het. Sy lag: “’n Kind kan nie die hele dag in stilte werk nie.” Wat maak ’n goeie onderwyser? “Geduld en die vermoë om opreg na leerders te luister.” Dry hoop om nou haar tweede liefde, haar omgee vir bejaardes, uit te leef. “Ek sal graag Ann Dry, ’n Graad 2onderwyser by die as ’n vrywilliger by die plaaslike hospitaal Hankey Primêre Skool, tree af na meer as 43 wil uithelp.” jaar in die onderwys.

KOUGA EXPRESS | THURSDAY 29 JUNE 2017

SPAR KIRKWOOD WILDSFEES

Four seasons of fun for kids at the Wildsfees THIS year the SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees, which takes place from June 30 to July 1, will embrace the imaginations of children as they enjoy fun-filled experiences on the wild side. A highlight for many will be bouncing on beds – without anyone shouting at you. Parents can let their kids go wild as they enjoy some bed-bouncing fun thanks to the Bed Centre, which is inviting children to bounce on one of their beds. “The festival is one of a few in South Africa to host a ‘festival within a festival’ for the young, and this year we have decided to celebrate our 16th festival by getting kids to embrace their wild with a variety of activities,” says festival director Jenni Honsbein. Special attractions for the young and young at heart include our Faeries for all Seasonsthemed wonderland, Little Pony rides, Squillos kids play care zone, pedal go-karts, paintball, and a chance to meet and greet cartoon kids characters such as Paw Patrol’s Marshall and Skye, Squillos, Barney and friends, Hello Kitty, Minnie and Mickey Mouse and Lollos and Lettie. For a once in a life time adventure kids can take a walk through an antique cupboard to the Faerie For All Seasons-themed wonderland.

There they will be met by spring faerie Maia in her giant nest, then journey over the rainbow to summer with the SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees mermaid Aquata, continue the adventure through fields of bright flowers and across a bridge where Rhea the autumn faerie awaits, ending at the magic waterfall with the winter Snow Queen Snowdina in her castle. Little Pony rides will take place all weekend long for R20 per person per ride. Children need to weigh 60kg or less to ride the ponies, Tonto and Pixi. The ponies will be taken off the ground before the entertainment starts so they don’t get stressed out. The Kidz play care zone is the next stop for children to go wild on a special soft play circuit. Bright colours and inviting shapes are guaranteed to give hours of fun while the rest of the family embraces their wild. Parents will be able to leave their children for supervised play provided they have identification. “At this year’s festival we want parents to be able to enjoy themselves while the children are kept entertained and safe,” says Honsbein. The first two hours will be free between 09:00 and 17:00. Thereafter, it will cost R20 per hour per child. After 17:00 the cost will be R25

per hour per child. This service is available on: Friday 09:00 to 22:00, Saturday 09:00 to 22:00 and Sunday 09:00 to 15:00. The gates will open at 09:00 and festinos can

party late into the night. Tickets are available from the SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees office at 042 230 0064 or visit www.wildsfees.co.za for more information.

KIDS AND BABY AND BRIDAL EXPOS

Express joins forces with Harwood Promotions PORT ELIZABETH Express has joined forces with Harwood Promotions as media sponsor of two exciting expos to be held in Nelson Mandela Bay. The Kids and Baby Expo will be held from September 29 to October 1 this year and the I DO! Bridal Expo from March 24 to 25 next year. Both expos will be held at the Boardwalk. Harwood Promotions is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year after being established in January 1997 by Linda Harwood, who is well-known in the media planning, marketing and event management industry. Her consultancy offers a professional public relations and marketing service, specialising in event management, exhibitions and conferences. “Over the last twenty years I have organised a huge variety of events, from sports-related, to fashion and corporate events appealing to a wide cross section of people,” says Linda. Harwood Promotions started her first successful exhibition, aimed at the Bridal Market, 25 years ago and since then has co-ordinated expos within the sports market, home market and Kids & Baby market to name a few. “I am passionate about the exhibition marketing platform as it is an affordable way for businesses to meet their target market face-to-face. “Businesses have the opportunity to engage in twoway communication with their clients, sample and survey products or services, build databases, launch new products, and keep their products or services top of mind using a well-managed and clearly targeted exhibi-

tion platform,” says Linda. In March this year, Harwood Promotions successfully launched the I DO! Bridal Expo at the Boardwalk Exhibition Level and the date for the next Bridal Expo has been set for March 2018. This past weekend the winners of a R250 000 dream wedding at the I DO! Bridal Expo, Melvonia and Enwer Brass, tied the knot at Africanos, which is one of the main prize sponsors of the competition. “Wow, what wonderful, emotional feelings we’re having. We are overwhelmed and speechless! Thank you to all the sponsors who have put together this great prize and especially to Africanos Country Estate for hosting our amazing wedding, said Melvonia. “The wedding was a wonderful success, said Cindy Venter of Africanos. “All the sponsors co-ordinated their prizes and the planning went very smoothly,” says Cathy. Linda is currently planning her 8th Kids & Baby Expo which will be held at the Boardwalk Exhibition Level during the third term school holidays over three days from September 29 to October 1. PE Express will be partnering both events, and will be keeping readers up-to-date with these exciting events. “We are proud to be partnered with Linda Harwood and be involved in the two expos. We believe this will add value and create opportunities for our diverse range of clients as well as our readers,” says Tasmia Ismail, general manager of EP Media and Die Burger (Eastern Cape).

OUTISME EINTLIK ’N SEËNING

‘Skok, vrees en onsekerheid as jy hoor’ Dit was vir Lurina en Wernich Cronje asof die ligte afgeskakel is toe hul seun, Kobus, meer as `n dekade gelede met outisme gediagnoseer is. Maar jare later, vertel hulle Monique Basson, is hulle elke dag dankbaar vir die seën wat hul jongste is. Al is daar baie donker dae. DIE donkerkop-seuntjie lag oopmond van plesier, met ’n strepie speeksel teen sy ken – onbewus daarvan dat hy moet sluk.

outistiesme dienshond - enig in haar soort in Jeffreysbaai. Lurina sê dat sy dikwels wens dat sy in sy kop kan loer om te sien waaraan hy dink. “Ek raak moedeloos omdat dit soms te veel raak en ek niks kan doen nie. Ek moet sterk wees, want ons is al wat hy het.”

Met sy hande voor hom uitgestrek en sy kop gekantel, doen dié 12-jarige wat hy die meeste geniet: klap hande. Voor hom sit sy ma en pa, Lurina en Wernich Cronje - die hartseer speel wegkruipertjie in hul oë. ’n Paar jaar gelede het hulle gedink hulle sal nooit hul jongste so interaktief en gelukkig sien nie. Hul seun, Kobus, se outisme het hulle bang gemaak. “Van voor jou kind se geboorte het jy al drome vir hom,” sê Lurina. “Dan skielik wonder jy of hy ooit onafhanklik sal kan wees, normaal sal kan funksioneer en ’n gesin sal hê. Sal hy ooit in die samelewing inpas?” Toe word hul vrese een vir een waar. Kobus sukkel met sosiale interaksie, empatie, kommunikasie en aanpasbaarheid. Slaap is ’n luuksheid wat hom nie aldag beskore is nie. Tog kan sy oneindige liefde nie ontken word nie. Donker dae Kobus was ’n perfekte, gesonde en lewenslustig baba met geboorte. Maar toe verander alles. “Na hy op twee maande met ’n longvirus gehospitaliseer is, was hy nooit weer dieselfde nie,” sê Lurina. “Hy was net ’n skaduwee van die eens vrolike baba wat ons geken het. Weg was sy gebrabbel en ondersoekende handjies. “Tot vandag toe weet ons nie wat verkeerd gegaan het nie. Te veel of te min suurstof? Medisyne? Ons kan net spekuleer.” Sy vertel hulle was verpletterd toe serebrale verlamming en ’n erge graad van outisme maande later by hom gediagnoseer is. “Jy verwag nie ’n diagnose soos outisme nie - nooit, nooit, nooit nie,” sê sy. “Daar was hartseer en vrees. Jy weet nie wat die toekoms inhou nie. Jy kan jouself voorberei soos wat jy wil, maar jy weet nooit wat om te verwag nie. Ons probeer alles, en behou die goeie. “Ons leefstyl en prioriteite het ingrypend verander. ’n Mens se sosiale lewe is iets van die verlede. Mense vermy jou - bewustelik of onbewustelik, want hulle weet nie hoe om die situasie te hanteer nie.” Lurina, wat haar werk opgegee het om Kobus te versorg, vertel dit is ’n wonderwerk dat hy kan loop - al het dit meer as twee jaar se harde werk en terapie gekos. Kobus, wie se intelligensievlak die van ’n tweejarige is, dra permanent doek en ’n borslap. Verder is sy sintuie oorsensitief. “Dit wat vir ons soos ’n ligte wind klink, klink vir hom soos ’n tornado,” sê Lurina. “Hy raak gou met geluide en aanraking geïrriteerd, en het geen aandagspan nie. Hy is die hele tyd op-en-af, op-en-af.

‘Normaal?’ Sou sy dinge anders wou gehad het? Lurina se oë skiet vol trane: “Niemand kan dit vir my vra nie. Natuurlik sou ek wou hê dat hy ‘normaal’ moet wees. Watter ouer sou nie? “Dit is baie moeilik; ek kan nie jok nie. Ons moes van ’n gesonde kind afskeid neem, en ’n nuwe ‘spesiale’ kind verwelkom. “Kobus sal nooit óns normaal wees nie, maar hy sal sý normaal wees. Hy het sy eie lewetjie en is baie tevrede daarmee. Ons aanvaar hom so, al maak dit diep binne nog baie seer.”

Kobus Cronje (12) van Jeffreysbaai is kort voor sy eerste verjaardag met serebrale verlamming en ’n erge graad van outisme gediagnoseer. FOTO:VERSKAF “Hy reageer ook nie as jy met hom praat nie, dit lyk asof hy doof is. Maar eintlik is dit net sy reaksietyd wat stadig is. Verder raak hy spasties as hy bly of kwaad is - ons weet nie aldag watter een dit is nie. “Pyn of gevaar bestaan nie in sy wêreld nie. Ons moes noodgedwonge ons hele huis babaveilig maak. Niks onnodig staan rond nie en portrette word hoog teen die muur opgehang. “Kobus het 24/7 toesig nodig.” Nuwe meubels is ’n luuksheid wat hulle nie beskore is nie - dit word te gou verniel. “Dit is emosioneel en fisies uitputtend,” sê Lurina wat ses jaar terug breekpunt bereik het. “Ek moes noodgedwonge hulp aanvaar en leer om iemand anders met Kobus te vertrou.” Maar dit is nie als sleg nie. Kobus is baie lief vir drukkies gee en hy is

mal oor ‘vry’. “Ons is baie gelukkig dat ons aan hom kan raak,” vertel Wernich. “Hy is geweldig musikaal en hou goed ritme. As jy kan hande klap en sing, is jy sy held. Toonvas of vals; dit maak nie saak nie.” Daar skort niks met sy eetlus nie. Wernich lag: “Hy is lief daarvoor om te proe of jou kos dieselfde as syne proe. Hy sal na jou bord staar tót jy vir hom ’n happie gee. “Party dae is moeiliker as ander - veral wanneer hy siek is. Hy kan nie vir ons sê wanneer iets fout is nie. Lurina ken Kobus en sy gewoontes so goed, dat sy twee dae voor die tyd al weet as hy gaan siek raak.” Benewens sy opgeleide oppasser - wat nooit lank bly nie as gevolg van die hoë eise wat die werk stel - is Kobus se bondgenoot sy Golden Retriever, Chloë. Chloë is ’n geregistreerde

Aanvaarding “Dit moeilik om Kobus na enige vreemde plek te neem,” vertel Lurina. “Hy hanteer verandering en vreemde plekke nie goed nie.” Om vakansie te gaan hou is onmoontlik. Wernich sê laggend: “Aan die begin van die naweek het almal hul karavane in ’n laer saamgetrek, maar hier teen die Sondag het almal hul karavane ver weg van ons staangemaak. Kobus se vroegoggend-mannewales is net een te veel vir hulle.” ’n Uitstappie na inkopiesentrums is ook nie kinderspeletjies nie. Eers is dit die gesukkel om Kobus en sy rolstoel in die motor te kry, en dan om dit weer uit te kry. “Hoewel ek ’n goedgekeurde gestremde parkeerskyf het, val baie mense - veral ouer mense - my verbaal aan wanneer ek op ’n parkeerplek vir gestremdes stop,” sê Lurina. “Ek stop beslis nie hier omdat ek te lui is om te loop nie. “Verder tree die publiek baie vreemd teenoor hom op. Hulle staar en maak aanmerkings. Dit voel asof ons die hele tyd onder ’n vergrootglas is en nêrens inpas nie.” Lurina pleit: “Aanvaar hierdie kinders sonder oordeel. Begrip van die publiek sal baie help.” Seëning “As ek terugkyk en die vreugde van nou vergelyk met die emosies wat ek en Lurina gehad het toe ons uitgevind het hy is outisties, verskil dit soos dag en nag,” sê Wernich. “Dit is eintlik ’n seëning dat hy is wie hy is, want hy is so eerlik en rein. Hy steek niks weg nie en sy onbeperkte liefde is opreg. “Nie net het hy ons as ’n familie nader aan mekaar gebring nie, maar hy hou ons nederig en leer ons wat ons werklik nodig het.” Anders as meer as ’n dekade gelede, toe Kobus gediagnoseer is, het hulle nou vrede - al is daar nog baie donker dae en hartseer. “Ons lag darem baie meer as wat ons huil.”

Training to boost public participation in municipal affairs PUBLIC participation received a boost this week when Kouga Municipality hosted an induction session for local ward committees. Kouga Speaker Horatio Hendricks says almost 100 ward committee members from across the region attended the training, which was held at Humansdorp. “Ward committees play an important legislated role when it comes to public involvement in municipal processes,” he says. “The induction session was an opportunity for members to gain greater understanding of processes such as the Integrated Development Plan (IDP) and budget. “The role which ward committees are expected to play, and how this links to the work of councillors, officials and other stakeholders, was also thoroughly workshopped.” He said it was the second workshop to be held for Kouga’s ward committees since their

establishment last year. The first workshop was held in November 2016 and focused on ward-based planning. “We would like to thank the ward committee members for sacrificing their Saturday to attend the training. It is dedication such as this that will help us take Kouga back to the top.”

Ward councillors Ludwig Vorster, Freddy Campher (third right) and Magareth Peters (second right), and ward committee member Vincent McCarthy were among those who attended the induction at Humansdorp. The session was facilitated by Monwabisi Gomoso (second left). Completing the picture is Admin Manager Elvis Olivier. Liberty Life provided Tshirts, files and pens for the session.

ADVERTORIAL: PEARSON INSTITUTE OF HIGHER EDUCATION

ADVERTORIAL: FIDELITY ADT

JBay receives security boost JEFFREYS BAY received a welcome boost in security resources after a local security company had been incorporated into one of the country’s leading security groups. KB Special Eye Security (KB) is part of the Fidelity ADT-family since the beginning of May 2017. This amalgamation gives residents access to state of the art resources and industry leading technologies whilst enjoying the personal touch of a localised security participant. “This amalgamation is a major boost for security in Jeffreys Bay,” says Ryan Britz, Branch Manager for Fidelity ADT in Jeffreys Bay and Port Elizabeth. “Customers of KB will now receive the same high quality SAIDSA approved security services that are already enjoyed by Fidelity ADT customers across SAand will include value added services such as emergency medical assistance, Find U personal protection and safe entry services to name but a few.” One of the most exciting innovations, explains Britz, is a local community information centre (CIC) launched earlier this year to service the Jeffreys Bay and PE residents. The CIC gives residents one single number to call for help with reporting criminal activity or other concerns, which Fidelity ADT will respond to

or disseminates to the relevant public stakeholders with the objective of improving the security environment in the community. Clients of KB will receive visits from their Fidelity ADT armed response officers in coming weeks to introduce themselves, whilst noting a change in the company’s branding and logos in the community soon. The amalgamation sees the number of Armed Response vehicles increase in the Jeffrey’s Bay area with a few new Fidelity ADT faces and various familiar faces of KB Team that has joined forces with the Fidelity ADT Team as a result of the amalgamation. “We are extremely excited about opportunities for the former KB Team and the customers that have been supporting us over the years, and we are looking forward to the additional value that we can add to the community as part of Fidelity ADT” says Micheal Hattingh, former KB Armed Response officer and lifelong resident of Jeffreys Bay. The acquisition of KB follows short on the heels of the acquisition of ADT Security by the Fidelity Security Group earlier this year, which saw two of the security industry’s biggest role players joining forces under the management of CEO, Wahl Bartmann, offering a vast range of personal and commercial security services across the country.

The campus offers undergraduate degrees across the faculties of Humanities, Commerce and Law and Applied Sciences.

They also offer specialist higher certificates in Information Systems. Part of our innovative approach to teaching includes technology-enhanced learning where the students use tablets in combination with textbooks. “Our highly skilled lecturers incorporate technology into their classes to help support the lesson plans as they understand that each student learns differently,” Theron said. Pearson Institute and CTI envision a future where excellence forms part of all they do and that it strives to continue to find new ways of doing things to provide students with employment-orientated skills.

JANNIE GESELS TONGINIKIES

Stop beteken nie stilhou nie JANNIE HOUGH VYF motors ry laasweek agtermekaar in ’n 100km-sone. Laaste in die ry is ’n byderwetse silwerkleurige blits wat besluit die ononderbroke, dubbele witstrepe en spoedbeperking is van die duiwel, en hy skiet by ons almal verby – sonder noodligte; en ek dink by myself: “Watchit, Schumacher, voor in die wapad wag ’n speedie.” En so by my kool – toe ons die eerste draai in Jeff inry – daar vergader Ta en die manne in bruin ongesellig langs die pad. En onwillekeurig wonder jy oor die amptelike K53 (as jy nie weet wat dit is nie, doen weer aansoek om jou leerlinglisensie), en jy besef mense bestuur volgens hulle eie boek (lees: breinloos). Derhonderde bestuurders het hul eie reëlboek. En dis nié ’n veralgemening nie – hulle emosionele toestand is hulle driver’s manual. As hulle ’n kans kan vat, dat vát hulle hom. Klink die volgende bekend? – ) Die toeter: Dit word amptelik gebruik om ander padgebruikers in ’n noodgeval te waarsku. Dit geld nie vir minibus-taxi’s nie: hulle mag dit gebruik om passasiers nader te roep, hulle pelle te groet en sommer vir die lawaaierige genot daarvan. Ander bestuurders mag dit ook gebruik om hulle woede te ontlont en rondloperdiere te verjaag. (Skilpaaie, honde en katte word nie gewaarsku nie – hulle ry jy sommer vrek). ) Die Stopteken: Die vereis dat jy jou voet op die rem plaas (dit is die pedaal links van die petrolpedaal) tot die motor heeltemal duskant die witlyn stop. Vir die meeste beteken dit kruip oor, sluip oor, jaag oor. Vandaar die spreekwoord: “Sy ignoreer my soos ’n

stopstraat”). In sekere provinsies (no names, no pack-drill), beteken die stopteken ook: ry oor terwyl die verkeer vir jou moet wag; wys obsene tekens as iemand voor jou by die stopstraat stop; jy mag ook by hom verbyry en hom uitkryt vir ’n idioot of enige ander sielkundige term in jou woordeskat; as hy iets terugsê, mag jy sy windskerm of sy kop met jou bofbalkolf verpletter. Jy mag ook jou pistool uitpluk as die onnosel vent voor jou by ’n stopteken stilhou. (Nota aan myself: “Myself, moenie in sekere dele van die land by ’n stopteken stop as daar ’n motor agter jou is nie. Dit kan tot jou vroeë dood lei”). ) Sperstrepe: Jy mag verbygaan slegs as daar onderbroke wit strepe in jou rylaan is. Jy kan dit ook anders interpreteer as jy wil: Jaag oor enige streep, gebroke of ononderbroke; as jy laat is vir jou afspraak, hoef jy jou nie aan enige streep te steur nie (ook nie die een in jou psige nie). As ander verkeer nie links beweeg nie, mag jy tekens wys, jou vuiste bal en jou noodligte flits. ) Verkeersirkels: As jy die eerste uitgang wil verlaat, sein na links as jy die sirkel nader. Gee voorrang aan verkeer wat van die regterkant aankom. (Jy hoef nie vir elke motor wat duisend kilometers van regs af aankom, te wag nie). As jy ’n ander uitgang wil verlaat, sein betyds. By ’n mini-sirkel: sein as jy links of regs wil draai. Gee toegang aan verkeer wat eerste oor die toegangstreep ry. Hier by ons geld ander reëls: As jy verkeer links van jou sien, kan jy maar jaag – hulle moet wag, al was hulle eerste by die sirkel, want jy kom van regs af. Gebruik die nodige obsene tekens en taal om dit in hul klapperdoppe te kry. Boeke oor verkeersreëls is deur

’n trop orangoetangs geskryf, en dit geld nie vir ons nie. Jy hoef nie flikkerseine te gee nie. Dis vir amateurs; en jy kan vryelik in enige van die twee bane om ’n sirkel ry en van baan verwissel sonder enige teken. (Maak ’n nota aan jouself: Bid dat jy nie in die stad Welkom gaan bly nie – dáár is slegs sirkels. In daai stad gaan ’n paar wilde latte jou uithaal). ) Verbysteek: In sekere provinsies geld die volgende reëls: As jy sit en slaap, en ander motors wil verbysteek, trap die petrol dat hul dit nie regkry nie. As jyself verbysteek, pasop vir voetgangers. Vir ’n vark op die pad tussen Aston- en Jeffreysbaai hoef jy nie te stop nie. Ry oor hom, sny sy keel af en eet vir twee jaar lank bacon. (Wees versigtig om nie ’n gewone vark met ’n padvark te verwar nie. Die terme is bietjie verwarrend, want albei gebruik die pad, maar probeer jou beste). ) Robotte: Jeffreysbaai het gelukkig net een, want tannie Laura het eendag aan die media gesê ons inwoners weet nie eers hoe om die één robot te gebruik nie – wat wil ons nog met meer maak? Ek stel voor die munisipaliteit verwyder die enkele speek in die wiel en verhoog sodoende ons ongeluksyfer. Maar, terwyl ons nou belas is met die één, dit werk soos volg: Rooi beteken stop. Geel beteken maak gereed om te stop – nie maak gereed om vet te gee nie. Groen beteken ry. Groen beteken nié jy mag voor ’n motor wat reguit ry, indraai nie. Hy het voorrang, al is die robot vir jou ook groen. Dis die reëls, maar reëls is natuurlik vir die voëls. ) Voorrangtekens: Oom met die snor, stop gerus by ’n teken wat vir ’n moeder met ’n baba gereserveer is. En dan oortuig jy met flikker-

ende ooglede die karwag jy is ’n vrou – veral as daar net brannas en Coke onder die komber- Jannie Hough sie in jou babawaentjie lê. As jy nog jonk is, mag jy maar by ’n parkering vir senior burgers stop. Dan moet die ou mense vêr van die sentrum af stop – dis goed vir hulle verkalkte bene. Enigeen mag ook maar by ’n rystoel-teken stop. As iemand jou aanpraat, vertel hom jy het so pas weer begin loop na ’n hewige chirurgiese ingryping – en hinkepink dan soos ’n kar met ’n pap band as jy wegstap. Hy moet duidelik kan sien jou wheel balance is nog nie reg nie. ) Verkeersmanne: as een van julle familie ’n ongeluk veroorsaak, laat hulle jou dadelik bel, sodat jy hulle kan kom bystaan. As die slagoffer vra vir ’n alkohol-blaastoets, begin skreeu dat dit onnodig is; gil op almal, beledig hulle, beskerm ten alle koste jou seuntjie of dogtertjie (gelisensieer?) wat die ongeluk veroorsaak het. Gooi jou lyf rond en vertel jouself die publiek is bang vir jou uniform. So kan jy help dat reg en geregtigheid geskied – dit wil sê, die slagoffer is skuldig en jou familie kom skotvry. ) Ten slotte: Onlangs het ’n lid van die publiek ’n videokamera in die hoofstraat oorkant ’n motorhawe opgestel. Nie een van die motors wat afgeneem is, het by die stopteken gestop nie. (Die kamera kon natuurlik foutief gewees het). Anders moet dit ouens van ander provinsies wees wat so ry – want die mense van die Oos-Kaap ry suiwer volgens K53.

Staan op en skyn – jou lig aan die einde van die tonnel is in MAMA GIFT, en sy is hier vir jou. Baie mense het al by haar kragtige en wonderlike werk baat gevind. Ek is Ricardo van Thornhill. Na ek alle hoop en geloof in genesers verloor het wat net leuens vertel het en my geld wou hê, het my tannie uiteindelik haar geheim tot sukses met my gedeel. MAMA GIFT het al haar finansiële probleme opgelos. Ek het MAMA GIFT gaan besoek, en was geskok dat sy presies geweet het wat in my lewe aangaan, nog voor ek `n woord met haar gepraat het. Met haar geestelike gebede en magiese ring het sy my lewe verander. Al my finansiële probleme is nou iets van die verlede. Na twee dae het my broer, Devor, met sy probleme na MAMA GIFT gegaan. Na 23 jaar van sukkel en geen bevordering, het hy met die hulp van MAMAGIFT se heilige, gelukkige olie R750 000 by die casino gewen. Sy het ook vir hom `n geestelike bottel gegee om huis toe te neem en waarop hy moet bid om met sy geskeide vrou herenig te word. Binne twee ure het sy gewese vrou hom gebel en hulle is nou in `n baie gelukkige huwelik. Ons is baie dankbaar. Ons sal MAMA GIFT vir enige iemand met finansiële probleme, ongeluk, diversiteit, hofsake, drank-probleme en huweliksprobleme aanbeveel.
