RAZAAN PLAATJIES
WHILE volunteering at the St Francis Animal Rescue, Caskin White met two remarkable boys from Sea Vista who inspired him and community leader, Jerome Visagie, to launch a transformative housing renovation project
White, who moved to St Francis Bay two years ago with his wife, Laetitia, became involved with the St Francis Animal Rescue, where they were exposed to the harsh realities faced by many underprivileged people living in Sea Vista
Fortunately, through volunteering for the animal rescue organisation, they met two remarkable young boys, aged 11 and 13, who also volunteer every Thursday despite facing significant hardships at home
As an occasional treat, the couple takes the two boys out to KFC and has previously bought them a pair of shoes since they had none
By communicating with the boys, White said they learned that their father was a drug addict and was unable to take care of them, while their mother left for Cape Town during the COVID-19 lockdown to sort out their identity documents, but never returned
White said the children are now being cared for by their uncle and his wife, who have generously offered them a place to stay
"These two boys have given everything just to help and be present at St Francis Animal Rescue on Thursdays, even though they don't have to," said White
After giving them money on one occasion, he said they told him they used it to buy electricity
White said that when he heard this, something had "clicked" for him, and he knew he had to do something more to assist them
Since he and his wife have always wanted to do work that goes beyond animals to help people in the community, they wanted to use this opportunity to make a difference
White reached out to Visagie, a respected Sea Vista community leader and local entrepreneur, who has inspired him over the years
Visagie, who has built a diverse business empire spanning cleaning, construction, painting, removals and airport transfers, provides vital employment opportunities for residents while remain-
ing deeply rooted in his neighbourhood
Considering his connection to the community, White asked for Visagie's assistance in improving the boys' family home
"I've always believed that if you can give someone a good place to live, a place that's sanitary and clean, a quality living space, they can have something to come home to every day," said White
He said the renovation project is designed to be sustainable and community-focused, with all work being outsourced to Richard Bosch, a single father of three who has previously worked on renovations with Visagie
White said connecting with Visagie has been a great experience as he is someone whom he looks up to and feels inspired by, given that he has, for many years, been making the Sea Vista community a better place
"I would not be able to do this without Jerome He is really the key ingredient to this change that we are trying to deliver to a family in Sea Vista," said White
He said the initiative relies on donated materials and items from local businesses to keep costs down
"We want to feed the community with assistance from the community By redoing this house, giving Richard a paycheque through these renovations, we can hopefully extend this to other families in the future," said White
While the long-term goal is to assist more people in the community, for now, he said the focus of the project will be on families with children at the centre
"Children are the next generation It is the generation that we can change, the generation that we can hopefully activate and motivate to lead better lives while saying thank you to the generation that is taking care of them," said White He said the current family caring for the boys has made significant sacrifices, taking on additional children when they already have their own to support White hopes this initiative will bring the St Francis Bay communities together
"It's about a regenerative sustainable programme that really feeds back into the community, and hopefully we can bring St Francis Bay together where it's really needed," said White

IN an ongoing collaboration between Kouga Local Municipality and the JumpStart Group, over thirty unemployed youth from Jeffreys Bay and surrounding areas recently benefited from the JumpStart Programme – a free initiative designed to equip young people with critical life skills and valuable work experience in the retail sector
The programme has been actively training youth in the region since 2018, with a recent session held at the Pellsrus Caravan Park during August
The first group of participants received training earlier this year, in May, at Mentors Country Estate
More than 30 young people, aged between 18 and 33, attended the three-day programme at the caravan park, engaging with a facilitator who provided practical, real-world tasks linked to the content shared
The Life Skills Course covers Personal Development, The Art of Customer and Sales Excellence, Interview Skills, and Entrepreneurship, and is followed by a six-day retail work experience
starting on 27 August 2025
This hands-on exposure in real-world retail settings significantly enhances participants’ employability
JumpStart Eastern Cape Assistant Regional Coordinator, Darryll Karolus, explained, “The three-day training will be followed by a post-assessment with me I will give them a test to write, followed by interviews, and then we will hand out uniforms and work experience documents on 15 August The programme is made possible through strong partnerships with the Mr Price Foundation and the SPAR Group nationally, which offer training and job placement opportunities through their various retail divisions ” Participating employer partners include Mr Price Apparel, Mr Price Sport, Mr Price Home, Miladys, Sheet Street, Power Fashion, Studio 88, SPAR and Build It The programme is facilitated by the municipality’s Local Economic Development and Tourism section, with young people invited to apply through an existing database, as well as other municipal channels

SANParkssupportsKrakeelPrimarywithuniformdonation
THE Tsitsikamma Section of the Garden Route National Park conducted its Donation Outreach Programme on 15 August
This initiative aimed to meet the essential educational needs of Krakeel Primary School, which is located approximately 100 kilometres from the Tsitsikamma National Park
The donation included 100 pairs of school shoes and socks, 100 shirts and trousers, and 36 packs of sanitary towels
The donation was made possible through the support of MPM Enviro Enterprise, which sourced and provided all the items Krakeel Primary is the sole primary school serving the broader Krakeel community, where residents face significant socio-economic challenges, such as unemployment, substance abuse and single-parent households
While some of the local farmers provide support to the school, many parents rely on
seasonal farm work at these farms to support their families, which is not a sustainable or stable source of income
This initiative follows the donation of 200 pairs of school shoes to five schools in the Tsitsikamma area in early 2024, as part of the park’s Back to School Programme, which supports learners from underprivileged communities in accessing quality education with dignity
Such initiatives form part of the broader
SANParks Vision 2040, which seeks to foster socio-economic transformation by creating stronger partnerships between the public and private sectors to uplift communities adjacent to national parks Through Vision 2040, SANParks envisions sustainable collaboration that not only protects biodiversity but also empowers neighbouring communities through education, skills and enterprise development, SMME opportunities, and improved livelihoods

A privately-owned pound has been established at Farm 865 Mooiuitzicht on the R102 in Jeffreys Bay, and in compliance with the legislative provisions pertaining to the establishment and operation of a pound
The pound spans 4 5 hectares and provides grazing camps to accommodate different livestock Five larger camps are available for cattle, donkeys, horses, and ostriches, while six smaller camps have been set aside for sheep, goats, and pigs Each camp is fully equipped with water troughs, feeding bowls, and natural shade, while the smaller enclosures also include shelter for added protection
In addition, a separate grazing area with three handling camps has been developed, featuring facilities where medication can be administered and injured animals can be treated Kouga Executive Mayor, Hattingh Bornman, welcomed the establishment of the pound, describing it as a vital intervention for both public safety and the well-being of animals
Kouga Executive Mayor Hattingh Bornman announced this week that reconstruction of the Seekoei Causeway is back on track after a five-week weather delay He said that completion is anticipated within six weeks He thanked the Aston Bay and Paradise Beach residents fortheirpatienceandsupport

“It is hoped that the pound will go a long way towards reducing road accidents that are caused by stray animals,” said Bornman “The facility will also play an important role in the fight against stock theft, as stray animals will now have a secure place to be kept until claimed by their owners ” Bornman further emphasised that while the pound is an important safeguard, livestock owners must take responsibility for their animals
“Ultimately, it is the responsibility of livestock owners to ensure their animals do not roam unattended, damage other people’s property, or wander onto roads where they can cause serious accidents ” Residents can report stray animals at the Kouga Call Centre at 042 200 2200 or 081 760 9183 (WhatsApp only)
Fisherman’sbeloveddogrescuedfrom3-metremanhole
RAZAAN PLAATJIES
GYPSY, a three-year-old Australian Cattle Dog, has been reunited with his family after going missing for 15 days, ultimately being found trapped in a three-metre-deep manhole in Jeffreys Bay
The emotional rescue operation concluded on 12 August, bringing relief to owner Tyler Pelser, who had conducted an extensive search covering over 3,000 kilometres
Pelser said the ordeal began on 28 July when Gypsy jumped off his bakkie during a routine trip following a fishing excursion
He said Gypsy had been riding on
his bakkie since he was a puppy, and over the past three years, this was the first time he had ever jumped off after the leash clip snapped on his body harness
"The moment I realised he had jumped off the back, I turned around and raced to where it happened, but he was nowhere to be found," said Pelser
He said he then proceeded to inform his fiancée, Danell Harmse, and his mom, Chantall Pelser, who quickly put an ad on her Facebook page and various other lost pet groups
Pelser said the days following Gypsy's disappearance were emotionally and mentally exhausting
"I had to go to the doctor, get
booked off work, and take a month's leave so I could conduct the search and rescue," said Pelser
"I blamed myself completely, so I felt I had to be the one searching 24 hours a day "
Pelser said the breakthrough finally came on 12 August when a local resident, Natasha de Klerk, reported hearing howling from a nearby house
He said that at about 21:00, he went on foot patrol in an open field behind De Klerks house
Pelser was armed with nothing but a two-way radio, which he used to communicate with Harmse while he searched
"As I moved further into the field and closer to the sound, I heard a gut-wrenching howl coming from the ground," said Pelser
He said that when he discovered the open manhole, he found Gypsy looking up at him
While calling out "Pappa is hier; Pappa gaan jou red", Pelser said Gypsy's ears went flat, and his tail started wagging
He said he called out to Harmse on the two-way radio, and she ran towards them to assist
With adrenaline taking over, Pelser said he then jumped into the manhole, which had an overwhelming urine smell, to rescue Gypsy
"He still had his body harness on, so I clipped the leash, picked him up, and lifted him as high as I could so Danell could grab his harness and pull him out I don't remember how I climbed out because the adrenaline had taken over," said Pelser
Gypsy was immediately rushed to Cape Cross Vet in Jeffreys Bay, where he was treated for dehydration and weight loss
"His recovery has been excellent and steady, and he's quickly getting back to his old self with lots of love, attention and a special diet," said Pelser
"Gypsy is everything to us, along with our Maltese Poodle, Siska They
are like children to us "
The search effort highlighted the power of community support, with numerous volunteers joining the rescue operation
Pelser said they were blessed by the reaction and assistance from the community
He said the support was amazing, with donations ranging from diesel to home-cooked meals
"We could never have conducted this massive search without the community's help," said Pelser
"We will never forget the love shown to us and our boy Thank you to everyone who stood by us, prayed, searched, donated, and helped bring our boy home "
Reflecting on the ordeal, Pelser said he is grateful they persevered and never gave up on their search to find
Gypsy
"I was mentally and physically prepared to find him in any scenario
The not knowing was the hardest part, but it drove me to follow every single lead, keep faith, and never be afraid to ask for help," said Pelser
The rescue operation involved several community members, including Bo van Niekerk, Marius Dreyer from Jeffreys Bay Neighbourhood Watch, Freddie van Der Wyk, Nathan Muller, Mekayla Roux, Johan Longland and his daughter, Luzandri Longland, David Phelan from law enforcement and Rachelle Harmse
AT Global Leadership Academy, sport is one of the ways the school makes disciples and shapes leaders
Every practice, every match, every competition, is an opportunity to grow in character, perseverance and teamwork
The school is excited to launch its brand-new GLA sportswear, made possible through the incredible support of the community
The school is especially honoured to welcome Cub3 Concrete as the Premier Front Sponsor of their jerseys, and Pick n Pay Jeffreys Bay as the Premier Back Sponsor
Their commitment ensures that GLA learners compete with pride, carrying the names of businesses that believe in the next generation
The school is also grateful to its supporting sponsors: ABSA
Bank, Apex Driving School, Cape Cross Animal Hospital, Fountains Mall, Humansdorp Motors, Humansdorp Toyota, JBay Cabs, Langkloof Bricks, Smhart Security, Stance, Top Trusses and True Technologies
The sponsored kits were originally planned just for the school's winter team sport, which includes hockey, rugby, soccer, and netball, but they have made the decision to ex-
pand this design and branding across all sports on offer at GLA
This means their sponsors' logos will also be proudly displayed in cricket, tennis, squash, archery, chess, cross
country and more
When learners put on these jerseys, they represent not only GLA but also a community united in purpose, investing in young people who will grow to lead and make a difference

AmandaNyathela’svisionforresilientinfrastructure
IN the world of infrastructure, where concrete meets community, Amanda Nyathela is a force of quiet determination
Recently appointed as Kouga Local Municipality’s new Manager for Roads and Stormwater, Nyathela brings a wealth of technical expertise, a legacy of mentorship, and a deep-rooted passion for transformative service delivery
Born and raised in East London, Nyathela’s early years were shaped by a fascination with the visible impact of infrastructure
After matriculating, she pursued that passion at Nelson Mandela University in Gqeberha, where she studied civil engineering, laying the groundwork for a career centred on people, progress, and purpose
She is now proudly registered as a Professional Engineering Technologist (Pr Tech Eng ) with the Engineering Council of South Africa
With over 15 years of experience in the engineering sector across both public and private sectors, Nyathela’s journey is as robust as the roads she helps build Her portfolio spans critical road rehabilitation, stormwater upgrades, and largescale infrastructure development Yet, her impact extends far beyond the technical: she serves as an ambassador for ECSA’s Women in Engineering and Future Leaders programme
As a current member of the CIDB National Stakeholders Forum (2023–2025), she is helping shape the national infrastructure dialogue
“My work is my contribution to dignity,” she says “Every pothole filled and every drain unblocked is a step towards safer, stronger communities ”
Nyathela’s day-to-day role involves more than spreadsheets and site visits As Roads and Stormwater Manager, she leads the strategic planning and operational management of one of the mu-
nicipality’s most essential service arms From coordinating engineering teams to addressing residents’ concerns, her leadership is grounded in collaboration and transparency
Her immediate priorities include urgent pothole repairs, enhancing stormwater systems ahead of the rainy season, and streamlining communication with communities to ensure that service delivery is not only efficient but also visible and accessible
Asked about Kouga’s infrastructure challenges, Nyathela is pragmatic: “Ageing infrastructure, limited budgets, and climate change are all real pressures But so are the innovative tools we can use to overcome them
“Among those tools are smart monitoring technology, sustainable construction materials, and stronger partnerships – both within government and with the community ”
Nyathela’s long-term vision is clear: a resilient, inclusive, and future-ready infrastructure network that safeguards lives, enables economic opportunity, and uplifts every household
“To me, civil engineering is hope in concrete form,” she reflects “Our roads and stormwater systems should protect, connect, and empower ” Her commitment to communication is equally strong Through local media, municipal digital platforms, and public meetings, Nyathela aims to keep Kouga residents informed and engaged
“Trust grows with information,” she notes “Community buy-in is key to longterm impact ”
As she takes up her new post, Nyathela is grounded in gratitude and energised by the road ahead
“I do not take this role lightly I am here to serve – with integrity, innovation, and heart Together with the community and my colleagues, I believe we can build something lasting,” she said

GLArugbybeatsNicoMalan49-29
GLOBAL Leadership Academy's First Rugby Team faced Nico Malan High School for the second time this season on 14 August, in what proved to be another competitive and spirited encounter
GLA secured a 49-29 victory a notable progression from their first meeting earlier this year, when GLA achieved their first-ever win over Nico Malan's Fourth Team by 11-6
The result is a testament to the steady upward trajectory of GLA rugby
For the second consecutive year, the school has fielded both a junior and senior team, navigating
the highs and lows that come with building a rugby programme
Under the guidance of coaches, Aubrey Kubayi, Sterrenberg Smith and Eduard Conradie, the players have developed growing confidence and resilience
The 2025 season has been a strong one for the First Team, with many wins and close-fought losses
Two of their toughest challenges came against the respected Nico Malan Fourth Team a side steeped in rugby tradition
Remarkably, GLA not only achieved their first victory over this team but managed to do it twice in one season
Principal Stefan Kleyn said that
the school is grateful for the invaluable support of sponsors, whose investment in their sportswear has boosted both morale and pride on the field
"The commitment from sponsors helps our players represent GLA with pride," said Kleyn
As the 2025 season draws to a close, the school recognises a squad of well-rounded, determined players who with continued leadership and support are laying the foundations of a rugby legacy for GLA
With both junior and senior teams showing strong promise, the school is well-positioned for an even stronger 2026 season
THE U/19A rugby matches will be the highlight of two massive inter-school events this coming Saturday
Framesby will be making the trip from Gqeberha to Humansdorp to resume their rivalry with Nico Malan
In the other inter-school battle, DF Malherbe will be hosting Despatch in Gqeberha
Various events leading up to this weekend's action will take place at all these schools to set the scene and get everyone motivated to produce their very best on the sports fields
DF Malherbe and Despatch will compete in netball, hockey, tennis, chess, golf and cross-country, but rugby will have the final say about who will go away with the bragging rights Nico Malan and Framesby take each other on in netball, tennis, hockey and golf
These two schools have produced very exciting and competitive rugby matches in recent years Nico Malan will be looking for a third consecutive victory against Framesby
They beat Framesby 21-17 in Humansdorp two years ago in a real thriller and followed up with a convincing 14-8 victory in Gqeberha last year Both teams will be full of confidence after solid victories this past Saturday Nico Malan got the better of Punt, winning 24-17, and Framesby beat Marlow Landbou 27-0
