since they were babies. Each child has their own story and their own obstacles, mental or physical, to overcome. Some of the children in our care were abandoned in dustbins to die, violently abused, raped, hungry and neglected due to poverty, infected with HIV and Aids and born bearing the effects of excessive drug and alcohol abuse by their mo-

thers during pregnancy.

With limited resources, we do our best to give them the love and care they deserve,” says Brook.

In 2011, Home of Hope, started a special needs school, Amathemba, which means ‘our hope’ in Xhosa.

‘Protect women and children’ TIYESE JERANJI @jeranji

R

esidents, organisations, police, and the Table View community policing forum joined hands to launch its 16 Days of Activism of No Violence against Women and Children campaign.

The launch on Monday 25 November started with a march from Table View police station to Church on the Rise where speakers made it clear that much more needs to be done to protect women and children.

Lt Col Noxolo Sijaji said the campaign needs to run 365 days a year. “This campaign started about 30 years ago, but women and children are still facing the same challenges,” she said.

One of the speakers at the launch was a rape survivor, Melissa, who said she was saddened that women and children are still under attack.

The attack happened a few years before she met her husband. “I thought I was safe when I went out with a group of friends. On a night out with my friends, I was drugged and raped. I remember very little details of the night. I had blood on my clothes. When I got home, I couldn’t even tell my parents.

I didn’t report it because I was scared.

This is my heart and my passion, my phone has to be on and I have to help. However, I can’t do this alone. I need help, the community must help us,” she said.

People at the launch pledged their support to curb gender-based violence.

Lt Col Hendrik Nel, Elsie Roux and Zandile Boyce also make their pledge against violence on women and children.

Students of TLC projects sang at the launch.

FROM PAGE 1 The school is one of a few in South Africa which caters for children with learning disabilities as a result of FASD. They also have a farm where the older children can work and earn a stipend.

“We provide holistic care for every individual. Each child receives individual care, where the right therapy and interventions are given to assist with their disabilities, as far as possible. Our program also caters to 14 other individuals from impoverished communities who would not otherwise have access to education” says Brook.

Social worker Bianca Wichtmann says they are trying not to think about closing the doors.

“How do you say to a child you can’t stay here anymore. This is the only place they know, and we are their family. Imagine the trauma, how do you even break it to a child,” she says with teary eyes.

Wichtmann says they run a big project with very small legs. “We have new exciting projects in the pipeline but that has been put on hold as we are trying to keep our doors open. If we close, a lot of people will be affected. Not only the children but our staff will lose their livelihood.

They have a charity shop that sells second-hand goods, they also sell farm produce and have started a Back-a-Buddy campaign to raise much-needed funds.

“We are really trying to be sustainable, but we are having a tough time. Staff have had to go for months with a staggered salary

but that has not affected their commitment and love. We believe the love that we have for the children and that we are a family here keeps us together,” says Wichtmann.

Brook hopes the public will continue to support them. “Our children know what it feels like to be abandoned, not feeling like they belong or having a place to call their own. We have promised to protect them from harm and give them a loving home and the brightest possible future. We hope the public will support our Back-a-Buddy campaign so we can continue caring for these beautiful children. Closing our doors would mean that our children will be separated and placed into overcrowded children’s homes across the Western Cape that don’t ha-

ve the infrastructure to accommodate their needs or the training to understand their daily struggles,” she says.

Wichtmann adds that placing these children in new homes is also not an overnight process. “There is a huge waiting list. It also comes with the trauma and getting used to a new place. Closing will not only affect the children but the staff as well because we have invested our lives here, so it is a tough time for us but we are trying not to think of the worst,” says Witchmann.

Water restrictions ‘reconsidered’

Swift arrest for intruder

DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke

F

A West Beach couple returning from church was surprised by an intruder in their home on Sunday 17 November.

Table View police spokesperson Capt Adriana Chandler says the intruder who gained access through an open window was armed with a pair of scissors and attacked the woman with it.

“The husband managed to press the panic button and armed response officers were quickly at the scene. The intruder was arrested inside the house.

Table View police were called and the suspect was handed over to them.The suspect was charged with house robbery and appeared in the Cape Town magistrate’s court,” she says.

Acting station commander, Lt Col Hendrik Nel, thanked the armed response officers for their quick action.

ollowing mayor Dan Plato’s statement earlier this year, that water restrictions would be reconsidered in October, the City last week stated that a decision over this must still be made in consultation with the national department of water and sanitation (DWS) and all users of the Western Cape water supply system.

DWS have scheduled a meeting for the end of November, in which their modelling for the region’s next hydrological year will be presented for consideration and discussion,” said Mayco member for water and waste Xanthea Limberg,” in a statement to the media on 18 November.

She said the City can’t pre-empt the outcome of the meeting, but will advise residents after consultations have taken place.

According to Limberg, dam levels have decreased by 0.5% over the previous week and are currently at 83.7%.

“Water consumption for the same period was slightly down, falling from 675 million litres/day to 674 million litres/day.

Currently the consumption target for the City is 650 million litres/day,” she added.

“Although our surface water supply is markedly higher ahead of summer 2019/’20 than it has been in recent years, residents should keep in mind that rainfall for winter 2019 was again below average. This is the fifth year running this has been the case, as reflected in City graphs.”

In response to this statement, Sandra Dickson of the civic organisation Stop Coct, said the City is using the same rhetoric as last year. “First Plato said restrictions would be reconsidered in October, but now they say November. As was the case last year, the City

Foundation (Choc).

Chair of the association, Dawn van der Riet says this will be a showcase of skaters

now says they have to wait upon DWS to lift restrictions.

“If the City could implement water restrictions unilaterally and increase tariffs, why must they now wait for DWS to decrease it? she said.

Dickson says the City last year implemented a 30% water reduction, while DWS only asked for 10%, resulting in the 650ML consumption target, which was exceeded by about 25ML only for the last three weeks. “It is simply outrageous and indicates that the City thinks the public will not see it. They have double standards, which only benefits the City.”

Dickson adds that should restrictions be reduced to the lower level, the public would be paying 49 cents per KL less.

VInformation on water restrictions when these are decided will be posted on www.capetown.gov.za/ thinkwater. “from the very beginners right up to our masters section which are all adults.”

The gala will take place at The Ice Station, GrandWest from 18:30 to 21:00. Bookings can be made at Computicket for R80 per adult and R50 for pensioners and children under 12.

Milnerton police needs help to trace the family or next-of-kin of an unknown man in his late 20s whose body was found on an open field between Milnerton Drive and Otto Du Plessis Drive in July. The man was dressed in blue jeans, a red tracksuit top and a black t-shirt.

Milnerton police spokesperson Capt Nopaya Madyibi says: “We are looking for his family to identify his body at our state mortuary in Salt River. The deceased is not from South Africa. It is alleged he is from Somalia. Anyone with the information can call detective WO Pienaar on 073 361 2389.

A helping hand for entrepreneurs TIYESE JERANJI @jeranji

F

irst Business Wellness (FBW) is launching its breakfast club, to reach out to entrepreneurs.

The breakfast club aims to create awareness of compliance, ethics and accountability among small medium enterprises (SMEs).

The launch will take place at Blowfish restaurant, Dolphin Beach, 1 Marine Drive, Table View at 08:30 on Thursday 5 December.

Entry to the event is R120.

This month’s event is open, but future events will be for FBW members and their guests only.

The First Business Wellness Association, a non-profit company, was formed to offer a holistic service to the small and mediumsized business sector (SME).

The association’s vision is to enable SMEs achieve sustainable growth through the expertise of seasoned professionals across all business disciplines, primarily in the areas of brand strategy, accounting, legal, risk management and funding.

Chair of the association, Neil Smith says the contribution of SMEs to the South African economy is generally undervalued.

“The Banking Association of South Africa affirmed in a recent report that SMEs have been identified as productive drivers of inclusive economic growth in South Africa; providing employment to about 60% of the labour force. Their total economic output accounts for roughly 34% of GDP. South Africa has between 5.5 million and 6 million SME business owners. These entrepreneurs are the warriors on the ground, tena-

Neil Smith ciously turning the wheels of economic growth. First Business Wellness is their gateway to sustainable growth,” he says.

With the breakfast club, Smith says the idea is to start involving local entrepreneurs.

“Most business incubators are trying to prepare entrepreneurs for business by offering training programmes in all the basic business aspects such as administration, legal issues, accounting and marketing. This is often overwhelming for the entrepreneur and they simply won’t be able to wear all hats and be competitive in the marketplace,” he says.

Smith explains that professionals and experts often operate in silos.

TLC students ready for jobs TIYESE JERANJI @jeranji

A

s the year draws to an end, many people celebrate their achivements and look at what they need to do in the future. Celebrating their milestones is exactly what students from TLC Outreach Projects did at Dolphin Beach Hotel on Friday 22 November.

TLC Outreach Projects is a registered nonprofit organisation in Table View.

Eleven students from the organisation’s Skills Development Centre graduated after completing a 12-month course.

TLC founder Colleen Pietersen says it was a very good year.

“The graduates completed life skills with a manual of 12 modules, paint techniques, computers, and Bible truth among other things. The students have their CVs, certificates and they are ready for jobs,” says Pietersen adding that many of them come from disadvantaged backgrounds, from the streets, are school drop-outs and some had

drug problems.

“Given where they come from and their circumstances, they have really achieved a lot. We have equipped them, now they need to find jobs. Students need to drop CVs at different places. The students are very proud of themselves; they have learnt a lot and they understand life much better. They have matured a lot which I think is very important,” she says.

Pietersen says what makes TLC different is that they run a skills centre and students don’t pay for training. “They get a breakfast treat and lunch. They are not under any pressure, they need to do what needs to be done. We are also connecting with Matrix for drug rehab patients. So, there is a lot that we give them that can sustain them,” she says.

The organisation will recruit again in January and classes will start in February.

For more information or how to be part of the TLC Outreach Projects email info@tlcprojects.org.za or phone 021 204 4575 or 083 658 4032.

LEWENSKIEKIE

Hoe lank hou ’n World Cup-babelas?

Diegene wat al erg deur babelas gekasty is, sal weet dat daar nie ’n erger siekte as wingerdgriep is nie.

Sommige ouens raak so siek dat hulle voel hulle kan sterf. Die kop pyn, die maag is ontsteld en alles irriteer jou. Alle reuke maak jou naar, veral kos.

Nou die laaste paar weke het ek ’n vreeslike babelas. Gelukkig darem nie die dranksoort nie, maar wel rugby-babelas.

Met die wêreldbekerrugby het ek letterlik elke dag rugby gelewe.

Van voor die toernooi begin het, het ek al die programme oor rugby gekyk – ou wedstryde, dokumentêre programme, onderhoude met oudspelers, onderhoude met huidige spelers, plaaslike en oorsese ontledingsprogramme.

Daarna het ek elke rugbystorie in die koerante verslind. Oorsese koerante het ek aanlyn gelees om beter perspektief te kry oor wat ander mense van die Springbokke dink. In meeste gevalle het ek my vervies omdat die Bokke nie ’n kans gegun is nie.

“Dan kom As ek op kantoor Mevrou en sê die kom, het ek en my kollegas vooruitwêreldbekerskattings of ontledings gedoen. toernooi is Sommige het nou verby en jy tentatief weddenskappe aangegaan, moet na die wat nooit gaan regte wêreld uitbetaal nie. terugkeer en kar Wedstryddae het vroeg reeds begin gaan was.” met wat ook al gedoen moes word voor afskoptyd. As Mevrou wou winkels toe gaan, moes dit gedoen word lank voor die eerste bal geskop is, want rugby begin gewoonlik ’n uur voor die wedstryd. Manne soos Victor Matfield en Jean de Villiers het die opbou van wedstryde ’n groot plesier gemaak met hul insae.

Baie manne het ook op wedstryddae vroeër begin vat as gewoonlik. Dit was nie ongewoon om hier teen 14:00 groot vure te sien nie. Wanneer die span gewen het, het partytjies gewoonlik tot die volgende dag aangehou.

Tussen deur alles moes ek nog elke dag op Facebook sleutelbordgevegte voer met Suid-Afrikaners wat die All Blacks ondersteun. Ek wil nie op iemand se tone trap nie, maar daardie groepie is ’n snaakse klomp.

Hopelik is hul monde nou eers stil tot die volgende toernooi oor vier jaar.

Ek dink nie daar is meer iets te sê oor die euforie wat die land oorval het toe die Bokke uiteindelik met die gesogte trofee huis toe kom nie. Koerante het elke storie uitgewring wat oor die Bokke geskryf kon word. Onderhoude is gevoer met spelers se ouers en grootouers en ooms en tantes en predikante en honde en katte. Ons weet nou dat Faf de Klerk van Bokbloemer-faam eens op ’n tyd in ’n skoolkonsert opgetree het en dat Damian de Allende se broer die week ná die toernooi getrou het. Elke aspek van die seëvierende span se lewe gaan in die volgende paar maande ontleed word. Of, soos Joel Stransky onlangs op televisie gesê het, hul lewe gaan nog vir die volgende 24 jaar aan die groot klok hang.

En hier sit ek nou. Ek weet nie wat om naweke met my tyd te maak nie. Soms sit ek die opname van die eindstryd aan en kyk weer na Makazole Mapimpi se skoppie en hoe Lukhanyo Am die bal nonchalant vir hom teruggooi sodat hy die Springbokke se eerste drie in ’n wêreldbeker-eindstryd gaan druk. Wanneer Cheslin Kolbe tussen die Engelse spelers deur dans, druk ek die pauseknoppie net voor hy gaan druk en speel dit weer. Elke keer wil ek ’n traan stort.

Dan kom Mevrou en sê die wêreldbekertoernooi is nou verby en jy moet na die regte wêreld terugkeer en gaan kar was. Of haar winkels toe neem. Hoe lank hou ’n World Cup-babelas? wonder ek.

BRIEWE briewe@tygerburger.co.za|Faks: 021 910 6501|Posbus 747, Bellville 7535|Briewe wat nie langer is as 250 woorde nie, sal voorkeur geniet. Verskaf asb. u naam, adres en telefoonnommer by (nie vir publikasie). Spertyd is Vrydag om 12:00

Dít is in die kind se belang Ek is ’n gekwalifiseerde en geregistreerde maatskaplike werker. Hiermee my professionele opinie en kommer oor die koerantberig “Rugbyafrigter kry trekpas ná onwelvoeglike optrede” (TygerBurger, 6 November).

Ingevolge die huidige Kinderwet en die Wet op Seksuele Misdrywe kan enige individu in die gemeenskap ’n beweerde seksuele oortreding teenoor ’n kind by die polisie aanmeld. Dit is belangrik om kennis te neem dat die beweerde oortreding, die strafregtelike ondersoek, hofverrigtinge en die regsbeslissing deur die hof nog steeds in die beste belang van die kind bly al word die beweerde oortreder ook onskuldig bevind.

Dus stem ek nie saam met dr. Theron wanneer hy sê dit is moeilik om te sê wat in elke kind se beste belang is nie.

Ingevolge die wetgewing kan die betrokke skool ’n strafregtelike klag aanhangig maak en is dit die wetlike verantwoordelikheid van die polisie om die klagte te ondersoek en die saak voor die hof te bring, selfs in ’n situasie waar dit nie die keuse van die kinders se primêre versorgers is nie.

Wetgewing en selfs huidige skolebeleid regverdig en beskerm die skool in hierdie verband. Volgens die berig is die rugbyafrigter deur ’n onafhanklike party in ’n interne tugverhoor skuldig bevind. Hierdie bevestiging is myns insiens bo redelike twyfel ’n sterk aanduiding vir genoegsame gronde vir ’n strafregtelike klag. Aan die ander kant kan die versuim om ’n strafregtelike klag in te dien ook geïnterpreteer word as ’n oortreding van die Kinderwet en die Wet op

Seksuele Misdrywe.

My verdere kommer is dat die rugbyafrigter uit sy pos by die skool ontslaan is, maar heel moontlik verdere kontak gaan hê met ander kinders omdat daar tans geen wetlike buffer is om verdere kontak met kinders te vermy nie. Die Kinderwet het duidelike beskermingsprosesse vir kinders teen oortreders wat strafregtelik skuldig bevind is, soos die registrasie van die skuldige op die nasionale register vir kinderbeskerming en seksuele oortredings.

My addisionele kommer is dat daar ’n sielkundige, ’n maatskaplike werker en ’n staatsaanklaer by hierdie situasie van die skool betrokke was en dit vir my voorkom asof die kinders deur die reg gefaal is en die oortreder wetlik skotvry hiervan afkom. Die moontlikheid bly dat ander kinders deur hierdie rugbyafrigter se sielkundig disfunksionele en patologies afwykende gedrag getraumatiseer kan word.

Taxis in control of our roads I wonder who is in control of the Western Cape and who controls the roads.

I live in Sonkring, and daily I use Blackberry Road to gain access to Cecil Morgan Road.

This is a scary place in the mornings because although the taxis are not supposed to stop there, they park in the yellow line blocking the view for both directions, as well as blocking Blackberry Road for us.

There are people crossing the road to and from the Checkers/Shoprite storage facility which makes entering the road more treacherous.

The people who say that

this problem does not exist do not monitor that road early mornings.

When will the authorities take heed? Or are we waiting for an accident to happen first?

Why not at least put a traffic light there or provide a taxi rank which might at least help people to be able to avoid oncoming traffic?

Who is in control?

It seems that taxi drivers and their owners control the streets of Cape Town and surrounding areas.

Kinders openlik dronk by konsert Ons was die naweek as ’n gesin na Liefde by die dam, of eerder “Drank vir tieners by die dam”.

Sommige mense sê tye verander en ons moet daarby aanpas, maar ek het nog nooit soveel minderjariges openlik dronk by ’n openbare geleentheid gesien nie. Seer sekerlik is dit nie reg nie.

Wat veronderstel was om ’n gesinsgeleentheid te wees, het in ’n absolute dronknes ontaard. Daar was geen beheer oor aan wie drank verkoop is nie.

Twee wagte het nou en dan probeer om vir ’n ID te vra, maar dit het nie vrugte afgewerp nie.

Kinders van Durbanville het openlik geloop en drink – sommige van hul voete af, asof daar niks mee fout is nie.

Meisies van 15 tot 16 jaar het by die kroeg drank gekoop sonder enige moeite.

Na bewering het een van die bands ook die kinders aangepor om meer te drink.

As ’n ouer van twee jong kinders maak dit my baie bekommerd as dít is waarheen ons op pad is.

Librarian in Bellville ‘saved a life’ It’s 2019 and like so many other South Africans I have lost faith in our government on national, provincial and local levels. l have also lost all faith in myself and my purpose here on earth.

Today, Monday 18 November, I was prepared to end my life. My depression has sucked the last drop of joy I had. I have been living for everyone except for myself. I had to return some books for a friend as these were one of the obligations I was forced to undertake every few weeks.

Nonetheless, I was at my lowest, lowest point. But upon reaching the main counter at Bellville Library I was greeted by a young, friendly newbie (Chad or Shad) who continued to ask me if I enjoyed these books. And when he realized I wasn’t feeling too good instantly encouraged me to get a book on positive thinking. I thought why is this over-enthusiastic guy trying to convince me to read a stupid book? - as if that would help.

He then continued to make a joke about one of the books he had read. He explained the different parts of the library and spoke about his dreams of becoming the wealthiest assistant librarian in the world which surprisingly made me laugh, much to my delight. This was the first time all week I had not thought about ending my life, but rather considering signing up and joining a library.

This enthusiastic young man without knowing had stopped me from committing one of the biggest sins.

I thank the Almighty for allowing me to experience such a miracle. The world needs to know about this great young man.

Bosmansdam to be upgraded C

ity of Cape Town’s transport department in partnership with Rabie Property has commenced with the second phase of the construction of Bosmansdam Road.

The project is scheduled to take eight months to implement and the completion date is envisaged to be by July 2020, pending adverse conditions and unforeseen delays.

The first phase was implemented between April 2018 and July 2019.

While Phase 1 entailed the construction of the Eastbound two-lane carriageway, Phase 2 will seek to rehabilitate the existing westbound two-lane carriageway that runs between Koeberg Road and Montague Drive.

Traffic will be affected in both directions as only a single lane on the portion of the current westbound carriage way of Bosmansdam Road will be open during the construction period.

The road closures on the Westbound carriageway will occur as indicated below: . Ocean Spirit to Ratanga Road – mid November to end January 2020. . Ratanga Road to Koeberg Road – February 2020 to July 2020.

During these closures, vehicles will have a two-way flow on the recently completed Eastbound carriageway.

There will be adjusted traffic signals and the required deviation signage along the route.

Five people perish in Joe Slovo fire

Phase 1 provided the transport link and the capacity needed for two lanes in each direction, the second phase will repair the existing Westbound carriageway to increase its operating durability to at least another 15 to 20 years.

Mayco member for transport, Felicity Purchase, said, “We are investing approximately R20 million in this project - putting our money where our mouth is.

“Once completed, residents and motorists can look forward to a considerable reduction in traffic congestion on this stretch of the road.

“I want to appeal to road users to be patient with us and try to find alternate routes to mitigate unnecessary delays, as far as possible,” she said.

Three children and two adults died in a fire in Joe Slovo on Friday 22 November.

Fire and Rescue spokesperson Jermaine Carelse said: “At 01:16 the City’s Fire and Rescue responded to smoke from a flat in Nqabe Street, Joe Slovo Park, Milnerton. On arrival it was found to be a flat, alight on the ground floor. Residents said there were people inside the flat.

“The bodies of one adult man and a woman, two minors and an infant (genders unknown) were discovered in the flat. A fourth child, a boy aged 14, sustained burn wounds to the head and was transported to hospital.

The fire was extinguished at 02:00 and the scene was handed over to police,” he says.

Jesse: Second suspect in court RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

A

second suspect appeared in court last week in connection with the murder of Jesse Hess, the University of Western Cape (UWC) student.

Chris Lategan (85), Jesse’s step-grandfather, also died in the attack. The 37-year-old suspect was arrested on Tuesday 19 November and appeared in the Bellville magistrate’s court the next day with his co-accused, a 31-year-old man. The 31-year old, a relative of the student, was arrested two weeks ago in Struisbaai in the Overberg following an attack on a 16-year-old from Philippi. The suspect appeared in the Wynberg magistrate’s court on Friday 15 November in connection with the Philippi rape, robbery and attempted murder. Eric Ntabazalila, spokesperson for the National Prosecuting Authority, says both men are charged with two counts of murder and two counts of robbery with aggravating circumstances in the Parow case.

“More charges are likely to be added as the investigation is continuing. Accused one has a pending case of rape that is at the Wynberg magistrate’s

court. He also has previous cases of rape and robbery with aggravating circumstances against him. He has abandoned bail and asked for legal aid to represent him. Accused two has a drug-related case pending and has previous convictions of possession of drugs and illegal possession of an unlicensed firearm,” Ntabazalila says.

The state is opposing bail.

In an earlier interview with the newspaper, Sandy Hess, the deceased’s aunt, said that the family always had a suspicion that two men had been involved in the attack on Friday 30 August at the Beaumont apartments in Victoria Street, Parow.

Sandy said the suspects fled with a big flat-screen television which required two people to carry.

Apart from this they also escaped with a handbag and two cell-phones.

Jesse (19), a former learner at Table View High School, studied theology at UWC. She was also a youth leader and Sunday school teacher at a church in Matroosfontein.

The case against the two suspects has been postponed to 12 February.

MASSIVE DISCOUNTS On TV’s & Appliances

RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj Sandy Hess, the aunt of Jesse Hess (19) who was brutally murdered in Parow earlier this year, says she is disappointed in the way some media houses have reported on the matter, In an exclusive interview last week, she told TygerBurger that some reports paint her in a very bad light.

Sandy is also hurt by what some family members of the victim has said in the media.

“I am just so angry and hurt by the lies that they are spreading about me – when the police and I were pleading with people for help, they did not say anything.

Now that we have done all the hard work and they (the suspects) are in jail, now they have a lot to say,” she says.

Two suspects, of whom one is a close relative of Sandy and Jesse, appeared in the Bellville magistrate’s court on Wednesday last week on murder charges. The duo remains in custody and will reappear on 12 February.

Sandy told the newspaper that she does not know the second suspect.

Jesse and her step-grandfather, Chris Lategan (85), were murdered on Friday 30 August at the Beaumont apartments in Victoria Street, Parow.

Last week Sandy, with whom Jesse was staying at the time of the murder, shared a message sent to a friend of hers.

In it the victim mentions that she fears for her safety.

Residents give input on spatial planning TIYESE JERANJI @jeranji

R Appreciated for serving others: Four members of the Table View Lions Club were recently presented with Long Service Awards for being loyal, active Lion members in their community. Table View Lions Club congratulated them for their many years of loyal and dedicated service. In the picture are Lions president Liz Houston, Lion Freda Dodd (10 years of service), Lion Brian Heal (15 years of service), Lion Lynn Heal (15 years of service) and Lion Liz Hucks (35 years of service).

Rattle them bones in fun run The National Osteoporosis Foundation of South Africa (Nofsa) invites the public for support in joining their upcoming 5km Fun Run/Walk on 30 November in Durbanville.

“You will not only run for fun, but there will be lots of prizes up for grabs. You can bring your kids along to enjoy face painting and jumping castles, where Sherpa Kids will keep them busy and entertained,” says a spokesperson at Nofsa.

The fun run takes place at the NG Church Bergsig on the corner of Boland- and Protea Way in Durbanville. It starts at 08:00 and registration takes place between 07:00 and 07:45.

Children under seven enter for free, children under 18 R60 and adults R100. Runners can register online at https://enter.entryninja.com/events/51942-fundraising-fun-walk/ enter. On-the-day entries will be R30 extra per entry.

esidents from Milnerton had a chance to engage with officials from the City of Cape Town on the spatial development framework (SDF) which is being reviewed.

A meeting was held at the Milnerton community hall on Wednesday 20 November.

The SDF is an instrument to guide and inform long-term planning and development in the municipality.

The SDF is being reviewed for the eight planning districts across Cape Town, namely: Table Bay, Blaauwberg, Southern, Northern, Cape Flats, Helderberg, Tygerberg together with Mitchell’s Plain, Khayelitsha and Greater Blue Downs.

Some key considerations for the SDF include housing, economic opportunities, transport and urban infrastructure Vernon Moonsamy from the City’s urban planning and design department said the City is looking at a different way of doing things and needs input from residents.

“There has been a lot of developments and with MyCiTi bus being implemented things changed. Parklands and Sunningdale is growing. There is a plan of urbanisation and the City needs to plan for it appropriately,” he said.

Resident Bruce Wynton said there was no use to give input if the City is not going to follow the rules. “What is the use of rules and regulations when they will not be follo-

wed? Developers ignore building plans and the City approves it. We have objected to various developments, but council approved them. Why are we here when we get ignored? Rules must be followed,” he said.

Mayco member for spatial planning and environment Marian Nieuwoudt said in a statement that it is crucial for residents and other parties in each district to make their voices heard.

The spatial development framework will be finalised during a second round of public participation in 2020/2021.

“Once approved by the City council, the SDFs will guide future decisions about developments, land uses, and interventions to create integrated and inclusive communities across Cape Town. The plans will focus on the nature and location of development on a local level to promote economic growth and job creation. It will guide the City’s decisions on how and where the private sector and public sector can and should pursue development; how land should be used; and where we should protect our natural environment and resources to become more resilient to climate change and other shocks, prevent urban sprawl, but also ensure that we direct our resources to vulnerable communities,” she explained.

Residents identified issues like crime, old infrastructure, traffic congestion and a lack of schools and parks as some of their priorities. The same meeting was held at Leibrandt van Niekerk Hall in Table View on Monday 18 November.

Residents highlight issues they want addressed in their areas.PHOTO:

Breathing life into ice-cream sticks TIYESE JERANJI @jeranji A Rugby resident is doing his bit for the environment and he is able to put food on the table through his crafts.

Geoffrey Wentzel (62) collects ice-cream sticks and makes jewellery boxes, fruit baskets, pen holders, cellphone holders and lamps among other things.

The father of two got the idea when he accompanied his sister and her daughter to Groote Schuur Hospital. As we walked into the reception, this basket caught my attention as it sat on the front counter,” he says.

Out of curiosity he enquired about the basket and he was told it was made by one of the patients.

“I was amazed, and they showed me the patient. I asked for his blessing to copy the idea. I was looking for a source of income, and he agreed,” he says.

“Everywhere I go, I pick up things,” he says as he takes out a few sticks from his pocket.

“I love the environment and I believe this is me doing my bit. There are different sizes and shapes and it allows me to try out diffe-

rent things. I really enjoy doing this and I hope people can also see the value,” he says.

Wentzel works as a handyman at three residential complexes. He also uses wooded pegs for some of the goods.

“This is very therapeutic for me and very relaxing. It has taught me patience and it allows me to connect with my creative being.

I walk from Rugby to Mowbray and along the way I look for ice-cream sticks,” he says adding that he also uses toilet rolls to enhance some of his products.

Wentzel has gone through his own heartache. He is divorced and estranged from his two children. He also lost businesses and his house years ago.

“I didn’t give up, instead I looked at how I can do things different. What can I do? I tapped into that inner being and now I use the ideas I get from God. Anyone can do it.

Find strength and turn things around.

“There is so much talent in the country.

I want my story to inspire someone. If I can do it anyone can do it. I love what I do, and I love looking after the environment. I’m in a very happy space when I’m making my products,” he says.

Nannies get some TLC from parents at special event While thanksgiving is not traditionally celebrated in South Africa, Nanny ‘n Me founder Lara Schoenfeld says this is the perfect time to show thanks to childminders for the role they play in children’s lives.

The organisation, which offers weekly group sessions for babies and toddlers to come together with their nannies and engage in age-appropriate play, recently held their annual celebration day.

Addressing the crowd of 1000 parents, nannies, babies and toddlers gathered at The Oval, Century City, Schoenfeld said, “You are brave and self-sacrificing; you carry so many burdens, and yet you come to work full of energy and love for our children. You kiss their owies when we are not there, you make them lunch and let them sleep on your backs; you sing to them, play with them and laugh with them – nannies, where would we be without you?” she asked.

She also went on to say that 69% of the nannies they surveyed take two hours to get to work after waking up at 04:30 every morning, and spend 12% of their income commuting to work.

Enjoying the celebration day was Veronica, nanny to two-year-old Jack together with his mother Nora. “I appreciate hearing

about different ways to teach children, and how the kids learn to play with each other and share,” she said, of the weekly groups.

For Nora, the community that Nanny ‘n Me has created has been a highlight. “The group has bonded so much that they do play dates and go to the library together on other days of the week. I have peace of mind that they are always having fun.”

The sense of community spirit was tangible at the event, which is an opportunity for nannies to get the recognition they so deserve. “We have Mother’s Day and Father’s Day; but why not Nanny’s Day?” asked Schoenfeld. “Well nannies, this is your day.”

Nannies were treated to hand massages, a goodie bag and a variety of spoils; and lunch was provided for everyone. Nannies brought their families and everyone enjoyed the various activities and entertainment on offer.

“I still remember my nanny sitting with me as a little girl, showing me how to count with beans. And my love for maths was born,” said Schoenfeld.

“Nannies, you are our children’s first teachers; and are part of the most important years in their lives. Your effect is everlasting; and that is a superpower indeed.”

New children’s book on ADHD ‘a first’ in SA A

first of its kind book aims to create awareness about ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).

With one in 20 children in South Africa living with ADHD and an estimated one million South African adults, the book All of these things are important to me, is the first fictional book launched in South Africa.

The writers are hoping improved awareness will help early detection and intervention.

The book, illustrated by David Griessel, is co-written by Prof Renata Schoeman, a psychiatrist, and the co-author of the South African management guidelines for ADHD, and celebrated author, Refiloe Moahloli.

Schoeman’s practice is based in Oude Westhof.

The book explores the adventurous life of Zee in a short and colourful narrative in English, Afrikaans, isiXhosa, isiZulu and Sesotho, and through its captivating storytelling, explains how a child with ADHD perceives and lives in the world.

The second part of the book offers a simple, but accurate explanation of ADHD: what it is, how it is diagnosed and how it is managed. It also offers valuable advice for parents, educators and health care professionals in understanding and managing ADHD. Schoeman says ADHD is a condition often misdiagnosed, and plagued by myths and misunderstandings, particularly with regard to treatment.

“When undiagnosed or not effectively treated, ADHD often sees children being unfairly labelled as naughty, delinquent, unteachable, and as adults, as lazy or incompetent.

“It’s important to talk about ADHD and how it hampers educational performance, self-esteem, relationships and productivity.

We also need to create awareness about other mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression and substance abuse, which can sometimes surface when ADHD is either mistreated or goes undetected.”

Schoeman says the playful narrative of the book was intentional to ensure that the children are entertained whilst parents use the scientific content to answer their children or even their own, questions about ADHD. “We wanted to create a resource that would be accessible to as many South Africans as possible in native languages and in the voice of a child with which both children, parents and teachers, could resonate.”

“The manner in which ADHD is talked about with a child can have an enormous impact on their perception of their value in the world.

“The right books can help and in South Africa there are no resources available to guide parents, teachers and carers. Parenting a child with ADHD can be challenging if one is not equipped but if you seek the right knowledge you can untap the potential of yo-

ur children and help them to cope with their symptoms better.” . Proceeds from the book will be donated to the Goldilocks and the Bear Foundation, founded by Prof Schoeman and athlete Nic de Beer in 2017, which funds and manages the screening of children in underprivileged areas, not only for the early detection and intervention of ADHD but also other mental health conditions and learning difficulties.

The Foundation trains teachers and caregivers and upskill NGOs in the early detection of ADHD and other mental health disorders.

To date they have offered free mental health services to 21 781 children in the Western Cape and opened an ADHD screening centre at the Tygerberg Hospital earlier this year.

They have also expanded to Gauteng where they launched in October 2019, and plan to be operational from early 2020. . The book is available for R100 from the Foundation (info@gb4adhd.co.za) and via sponsorships will be donated to schools and public libraries.

Bothasig cyclist returns home RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj After completing thousands of kilometres on his bicycle to help raise awareness for Klinefelters syndrome, Stephen Malherbe is back home.

The Bothasig resident set out from Philadelphia on his planned six-week journey around the Western Cape on Saturday 5 October. He visited several health clinics in the towns he cycled through where he distributed pamphlets around Klinefelters syndrome.

Malherbe planned on visiting 47 towns.

Asked about his journey and the challenges he experienced along the way, Malherbe told TygerBurger that for the most part it was smooth sailing.

“There were no real difficulties, the biggest challenge was just the lack of funds.”

A fundraiser was held for him at the Edgemead community hall on Friday 8 November.

“I feel I have broadened my mind and my eyes have been opened in so many ways.”

Malherbe says he achieved his goal, but that he would have liked to have done more.

“Unfortunately I only completed 40 towns when the funds had run out. My partner collected me from

Franschhoek in Malherbe Street, which is ironically my surname.” His partner, Caryn Allwright, said earlier that she kept in touch with him and recorded his journey on Facebook.

Awareness around Klinefelter syndrome, he says, is something that should be done more widely.

Malherbe, who has undertaken several such challenges in the past, says there are things about the trip he will miss.

“I loved the quietness and peace in the countryside. I am struggling a bit at the moment.”

Klinefelters syndrome has symptoms along the Autism spectrum. Many people with Klinfelters syndrome have communication problems due to language development issues.

“Constant health problems have plagued me all my life.”

Some of the towns he visited include Darling, Langebaan, Hopefield, Moorreesburg, Riebeeck Kasteel, Tulbagh and Ceres.

Stephen Malherbe from Bothasig cycled across the Western Cape to raise awareness around Klinefelters syndrome.

Biografieë, ander Africana by bib se uitverkoping te kry

Prof Renata Schoeman, co-writer and illustrator David Griessel. PHOTO: CLAIRE GREENSPAN PHOTOGRAPHY

Dit is weer tyd vir die Vriende van Bellvillebiblioteek se kwartaallikse Africana-verkoping.

Biograefië oor twee liberale en beginselvaste Hofmeyrs, Onze Jan en Slim Jannie, wat albei al beskryf is as die stem van SuidAfrika se gewete, is te koop by die geleentheid op Saterdag 30 November.

Tom Macdonald se Jan Hofmeyr: heir to Smuts (1948) skets die meteoriese opgang van die briljante akademikus en politikus Jannie (“Hoffie”) Hofmeyr, wat op 17 reeds ’n MA-graad gehad het, op 25 rektor van die Universiteit van die Witwatersrand was en in die Smuts-regering verskeie kabinetsposte beklee het.

As vise-kanselier van Wits het hy in sy intree-toespraak in 1939 gewaarsku teen die herrenvolk-mentaliteit as basis van SA se rasseprobleem.

Hy self het op die ouderdom van 18 ’n politieke biografie van sy bekende neef, die Vrystaatse staatsman “Onze Jan”, geskryf. Dié biografie, The life of Jan Hendrik Hofmeyr (1913), sal ook te koop wees.

Boekversamelaars kan hulle verlustig in nog vele interessante biografieë op die verkoping.

In Hans van Rensburg, leier van die Ossewa-Brandwag, se memoirs Their paths crossed mine (1956), gee hy pensketse en persoonlike indrukke oor mense soos Robey Leibbrandt en Steve Hofmeyr, oupa van die uitgesproke sanger. Noni Jabavu, een van die eerste swart SA vroue wat ’n literêre loopbaan gevolg het, en self ’n slagoffer van

SA se raswette was, herleef in Drawn in colour: African contrasts (1960) haar persoonlike ervarings, maar gee ook ’n rykdom inligting oor swart mense se leefwyse.

Brian Warner beskryf in Charles Piazzi Smyth: astronomer - artist: his Cape years 1835 - 1845 (1983) die dekade wat dié innoverende en belangrike sterrekundige as ’n assistent vir Thomas Maclear by die Kaapse sterrewag gewerk het.

In The lonely grave in the Fish River Canyon (1981) vors die skrywer C.N.L. van Huyssteen die lewe na van die jong Duitse offisier Thilo von Trotha, wat in die opstand van Hendrik Witbooi teen Duitse besetting gesneuwel het en hier in die woestyn begrawe is.

In The sad and the sinful (1964) beskryf die welsynwerker John Yates-Beynon sy werk onder die ruwe, desperate en eksentrieke karakters van die Kaapse skemerwêreld as “It isn’t a career, it’s a shocking emotional experience”.

Vir lyste van Africana en algemene biografieë kan Ilze Swart by 082 666 9758 gekontak word.

Daar is ook verskeie werke van Winston Churchill, onder meer sy vierdelige History of the English speaking people (1956-1958) en die ses volumes van Second World War (19481954).

Die verkoping sluit soos gewoonlik ’n wye verskeidenheid gehalte-kinderboeke en niefiksie-titels in, waaronder verskeie algemene en spesialis-woordeboeke.

Die verkoping duur van 09:00 tot 16:00.

‘Community the losing party in CPF debacle’ DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke

A

stalemate between provincial government and the provincial community policing board (CPB) is threatening to destabilise local community safety structures should middle ground not be found soon.

It stems from directives issued by the department earlier this year, which changes the voting rights that were adopted by individual community policing forums (CPF) in accordance with national legislation.

This resulted in provincial police commissioner Lt Genl Sindile Mfazi to on 30 October place a moratorium on CPF annual meetings across the province, where new executives would have been voted into office for the next five-year term; this after the CPB called on the police commissioner for intervention.

Provincial minister of community safety, Albert Fritz, last week called on Lt Genl Mfazi to lift this moratorium and allow communities to elect their leadership.

He also called on all CPFs in the province to abide by his directives and guidelines.

“These directives were issued to allow for all community based organisations including neighbourhood watches (NHW), nongovernmental organisations and the religious fraternity to participate in CPFs at the station-level,” he said in a statement.

He is of the opinion that the current Uniform Constitution for CPFs in the Western Cape, drafted in 2010, is now outdated. “(The UC) is no longer aligned with current legislation, particularly the Civilian Secretariat for Police Act and the Western Cape Community Safety Act,” he stated.

He expressed concern that this outdated constitution is being used by a few within the CPB to side-line community based organisations in terms of voting rights.

“Historically, these provisions have resulted in a lack of representation of NHWs and community structures on CPFs, in turn, causing much tension,” said Fritz.

According to Fritz the constitution is not aligned with the spirit of the Western Cape Community Safety Act, which aims to make CPFs inclusive of all community based organisations.

He added that the department’s directives were issued within the ambit of the legislative powers of the province, after much consultation and confirmation from the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), the national civilian secretariat for police and from the police.

Sean McCleland, chair of the Tygerberg cluster CPB, says Fritz’s statement is misleading. “Firstly, the IEC is a political organisation and has no mandate to moderate functions or elections within a CPF. Secondly, the provincial commissioner, after consultation with the CPB, did not confirm the department directives as claimed by Fritz and thirdly, the constitution does not apply only to certain organisations or cultural structures.

“It applies to every safety organisation, both within government and community based within respective communities. Furthermore, the department is acting outside of their legal mandate in terms of the Constitution of the Republic, which clearly shows no legal mandate and no responsibility on the department to issue directives. Legally, the role of department is to promote, assist

and monitor police partnerships,” he says.

McCleland says the constitution by which CPFs are managed, was instituted and approved of by the department, the police and CPFs at its inception and is focused on the implementation of national laws, not provincial legislation. “Legally speaking the department cannot dictate to CPFs and the question begs as to why they forget their legal mandate. Why are they attempting to force this onto CPFs and what is their agenda?” says McCleland. “It is causing political infighting and internal friction that is weakening community safety.”

McCleland confirmed that the CPB and the provincial police commissioner in a meeting on 16 November agreed that CPF annual meetings and elections will only proceed next year between 20 January and 28 February and will take place in terms of the constitution and not department directives.

The department was notified of this meeting, but did not show up and confirmed their refusal to attend the meeting, according to McCleland. Fritz, on the other hand, continued to say it was unfortunate “that the functionality of all 151 CPFs in the Western Cape is now compromised because of a dysfunctional few”.

In reply to Fritz, McCleland said, “it is because of the attempts by the department to dictate to CPFs that this very problem has occurred, even although the department is admittedly way outside of its legal mandate”.

Tygerberg cluster, under the assessment of the department was found to be one of the most functional in the province with the highest in submissions and compliance with the department strategy.

Manure can become part of solution ESMÉ ERASMUS @erasmusesme Cow manure may soon be converted to electricity to complement the current Eskom feed to a company in Klipheuwel, if the project is supported by the City of Cape Town.

Ruan Beneke, councillor for ward 105, which includes Klipheuwel, submitted a motion at the meeting of subcouncil 7 last Monday that the subcouncil in principle support this biogas electrification project in Klipheuwel.

According to the municipal agenda, Afgri Animal Feeds in Klipheuwel is looking at alternative energy sources to complement its current Eskom feed.

One such alternative is a green energy option in which methane gas from cow manure will be converted to electricity, and relayed back to Afgri Animal Feeds from the adjacent farm.

In order to proceed with this initiative, a servitude needs to be registered over a small portion of City land and comment from subcouncil will be required as part of the process.

In order to expedite the application process, which still needs to be initiated by Afgri Animal Feeds, a recommendation that subcouncil in principle support this initiative was accepted at the meeting.

Old online accounts a threat I

t’s very likely that you’ve been using the internet for many years and already forgot how many different accounts you’ve created.

However, old accounts pose a real threat as there’s a big chance they store a lot of sensitive data. If one of your old accounts is leaked, it can become an open door for cybercriminals to hack into your email, Facebook, and even computer or smartphone.

“News about data breaches and leaks are starting to feel like a common thing. And even though we tend to care about our most important accounts, we usually forget that those we barely use also contain sensitive information,” says Daniel Markuson, a digital privacy expert at NordVPN. “An important thing to remember is that consequences that follow a breach usually are not immediate. It can take months or even years until cybercriminals start using this data to access other websites where the same login details have been used.”

According to Markuson, a websi-

te haveibeenpwned.com now lists 8,506,873,299 accounts and 555,278,657 passwords that have been compromised in a data breach.

“Those huge numbers mean that if you’ve ever had an account online, at some point, your data was probably exposed in a breach,” he says.

By the way, haveibeenpwned.com, ran by a cybersecurity expert Troy Hunt, is a perfect place to check whether any of your accounts or passwords were exposed.

Markuson, shares some tips on how to clean up your digital history and stay safe online.

Make a list of all your old online accounts and start deleting them.

Google your name, surname, and nickname you usually use online.

There’s a high chance you’ll be surprised to see on how many different social media pages and forums your name appears. Go one-by-one and try deleting the ones you are not using anymore. It might be more difficult than it seems, and this process will require patience.

Music centre to host demonstration The Hugo Lambrecht Music Centre in Parow that offers lessons in a wide variety of orchestral instruments, including piano, guitar, voice and theory training, will be hosting a demonstration of all the instruments on offer, followed by general auditions next month.

Interested individuals will be able to try out and choose which instrument is best for them. This takes place on Monday 2 December and Tuesday 3 December, at 17:00.

The Summer Greens recreation and food fair will be held on Friday 29 November, from 16:00 to 20:00, at Summer Greens community hall.

The centre offers tuition to learners of all ages.

“Over 30 years of music tuition has seen learners from the music centre embark on solo, orchestral and educational career paths both locally and abroad,” a spokesperson says. The centre is proud of its four-string orchestras, threewind bands and symphony orchestra.

V For more information call the office on 021 939 9105 or request an application form via email: info@hugolambrechts.co.za.

For a food stall, book your free table at 021 551 6578. There are 20 stalls available.

All food on sale must be sold for under R20. No alcohol allowed.

Another way to find your old accounts is checking your email and password manager. Try typing in the keyword “account” in your email-search. Most probably, it will show old emails containing registration confirmations.

Find all accounts linked to your social media or email. Connecting various social media accounts, services, websites, and apps seems convenient.

However, quite often, we do not realize how many permissions we grant to third parties. We freely give out sensitive information to these apps and websites, and it stays there, even if we no longer use the service.

It is recommended you review which accounts are linked, what permissions you’ve given out, and rethink whether you are happy about that or not. Most importantly, revoke access to websites and

apps that you no longer use.

Revise privacy settings and check accounts for sensitive data.

Most social media platforms and forums have adjustable privacy settings. However, they are usually set to default, so you have to enable the ones you want. Be strict about what information you share.

Remove all personal details from your profile, such as email, phone number, home address, or vacation plans shared on blogs, forums, and social networks.

While online, it is advised to remain vigilant.

Don’t become too emotional in forums and refrain from participating in heated discussions. This often brings more harm than good, as cyberbullying is becoming prevalent in social media.

It can take months or even years until cybercriminals start using this data to access other websites where the same details were used

If you decide to keep your accounts, make sure to change passwords. Don’t forget to change all of your passwords, even your WiFi password at home. Most importantly, never reuse the same password for several accounts and make sure all of your passwords are very strong. A reliable password usually includes letters, symbols, and numbers.

Finally, check haveibeenpwned.com to see if your email and password have been compromised in a data breach before. Use online security tools, especially if you don’t want to think about digital security.

Rupert ontvang gesogte toekenning Die uittredende kanselier van die Universiteit Stellenbosch, dr. Johann Rupert, het die instelling se tweede hoogste eerbewys, die gesogte Pro Bene Merito-prys, op Dinsdag 19 November ontvang.

Rupert is vereer as uitgelese sakeleier, entrepreneur, bewaringsgesinde en filantroop – nie net in SuidAfrika nie, maar internasionaal.

Reeds in 2004 het hy die US se hoogste eerbewys, ’n eredoktorsgraad, ontvang.

Die US ken sy Pro Bene Meritoprys – in die vorm van ’n medalje en sertifikaat – onder baie spesiale omstandighede vir uitsonderlike diens op plaaslike of internasionale vlak toe. Dit sluit onder meer in die bevordering van die US se belange, veral in die akademiese gemeenskap; die skep van geleenthede vir studie en navorsing vir US-personeel en -studente oor ’n langer tydperk; en die bevordering van die algemene belange van die US of die breër samelewing.

Prof. Wim de Villiers, rektor en visekanselier van die US, het by ’n geleentheid wat op L’Ormarinswynlandgoed by Franschhoek gehou is om Rupert se twee ampstermyne as kanselier te vier, gesê Rupert het die US die afgelope tien jaar met groot passie en toewyding ge– dien.

“Hy was ook oor die jare heen ’n groot weldoener van die universiteit deur verskeie inisiatiewe te fi-

Dr. Johann Rupert en prof. Wim de Villiers. nansier – insluitend wynkunde, die regte, sport, opvoeding, musiek en bewaring.”

De Villiers het ook gesê afgesien van sy rol as kanselier en groot weldoener van die universiteit, het die instelling ook baat gevind by Rupert se fasilitering en netwerke.

“Hy het al talle deure vir die universiteit oopgemaak, wat ons baie gehelp het om ons visie te bevorder.”

Hy het bygevoeg dat hy veral deur Rupert se oortuiging dat nie die universiteit of die dorp bekrompe moet wees nie, maar eerder “groot moet dink”, geïnspireer is.

De Villiers het ook aangekondig

dat Rupert aanstaande jaar ’n ereprofessorskap in Internasionale Sakepraktyk by die Universiteit van Stellenbosch Besigheidskool (USB) sal opneem.

Sy termyn sal van 1 Januarie 2020 tot 31 Desember 2022 strek.

Hy sal jaarliks ’n lesing lewer, en ook help om internasionale denkleiers as gassprekers by die universiteit te kry. By ontvangs van die Pro Bene Merito-toekenning het Rupert gesê elke oomblik in ’n mens se lewe is belangrik en het ’n invloed op jou.

“Moenie dink jy is in beheer van jou lewe nie. Die lewe leef jou; jy leef nie die lewe nie.”

Rupert het ook die universiteit aangemoedig om die “ongelooflike breinkrag” by die instelling te gebruik om Suid-Afrika se probleme op te los.

Die voorsitter van die raad, George Steyn, het by die geleentheid ’n oorsig van die Universiteit se suksesse gedurende Rupert se termyn gegee en gesê die instelling, wat verlede jaar sy eeufeesjaar herdenk het, “het een van die voorste hoëronderwysinstellings geword, wat ’n belangrike bydrae tot mense se ontwikkeling in ons land, in Afrika en reg oor die wêreld maak.

Hy het ook na die jongste Times Higher Education- wêreldranglys vir universiteite verwys en gesê die US het weer eens verder opgeskuif om nou onder die top-1% van universiteite wêreldwyd te wees.

Talk about money taboo, says survey Money is a bigger taboo than sex, religion or politics, according to a survey by one of the world’s largest independent financial advisory organisations.

In the global survey, conducted by deVere Group, 56% of those polled ranked personal finance as the most difficult subject to discuss with family, friends and colleagues.

It came ahead of sex (18%), politics (12%), religion (8%) and health issues (6%) in the poll of more than 700 clients in Africa, the UK, Europe, Asia and Australasia.

“We’re moving towards the holiday period when people, typically, are more likely to get together with loved ones than at any other time in the year,” comments Nigel Green, founder of deVere Group.

“But the survey shows that what

they are least likely to be discussing is personal finance - including income, taxes, pensions, debt, savings and expenses.

“Money remains the biggest sociatal taboo.”

He continues: “The taboo of talking money needs to be broken down and normalised.

“We need to recognise and celebrate how money can truly provide individuals and their loved ones with incredible life-enhancing opportunities.

“In addition, high-net-worth individuals tend to be society’s primary wealth and job creators, major tax contributors and philanthropists.”

He goes on to add, “The de-stigmatisation of talking money would also help banish the ‘head in the sand’ attitude to personal finances that pre-

vents many from achieving their financial goals.

“Plus, when money is an awkward topic of conversation, it is easier for people to get an unfair deal.

These people typically tend to be women, younger people and ethnic minorities. Silence about money issues can often allow the unfairness to continue unabated.

“Finances can be complex and are specific to each individual. The answer is to seek independent, expert help from professionals who will be able to signpost people in the right direction.

“We use money every day, it’s an essential part of our lives. Therefore, we need to get more comfortable discussing it.

“Beginning a conversation about money is the first step.”

Art ceramics celebrated at market A

rt ceramics was celebrated at the annual curated ceramics market at Rust-en-Vrede in Durbanville on Saturday 16 November.

A total of 30 curated stalls show-

cased quality work. Among the exhibitions was a unique ceramics exhibition of work finished during a recent week of ceramic firing, where an anagama kiln was fired at the Millstone Pottery in McGre-

gor.

The firing took 100 hours to reach temperature and five tons of wood (invasive species) were used in the firing. The kiln took five days to cool down.

These ceramics bowls, created by Alila Hofmeyr, were sold at the market.

Elize Oosthuizen and Estelle Smith, both from Durbanville, visited the market.

LĂŠan van der Merwe from Table View demonstrated to his audience how to throw a clay vessel .

Ceramic artist Santie de Bruyn from Bellville next to her ceramic plate display with Gail MacFarlane from Durbanville.

These creative mugs by Hennie Meyer from Durbanville were exhibited at the market.

Meyer also presented a talk about his residency in Estonia last year, when a number of international ceramic luminaries were invited to work together for three weeks, after which they held an exhibition of their work.

NPO welcomes child pornography conviction RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

A

local non-profit organisation (NPO) who works with vulnerable children welcomed the conviction of a man found guilty of being in possession of child pornography.

The convicted Dawid Lotz from Malmesbury was handed down a 10 year prison sentence at the Parow regional court on Monday 18 November.

Lotz worked as a control prosecutor at the Atlantis magistrate’s court until three years ago.

Eric Ntabazalila, spokesperson of the National Prosecuting Authority told TygerBurger that Lotz resigned from the NPA in December 2016.

Childline Western Cape, who works with children who either are at risk of, or who have experienced sexual abuse and, or trauma and who has offices in Parow, say they are glad for any conviction and sentencing in cases which involves the possession of child pornography.

“It sends out a clear message that child pornography is a crime, and should be reported to the police.

“We are pleased to note that the many efforts being made to bring awareness to this issue, are bearing fruit,” Cheryl Morilly, deputy director, says.

She encourages parents and caregivers to be involved in their children’s social media activities and to talk about the dangers of sharing photos on social media.

“Parents should also be cautious about

the kinds of information and photos which they share about their children on social media which may have potential dangers for their children such as their safety, their future digital footprint and which could negatively affect their self-esteem,” Morilly says.

Ntabazalila says the 44-year-old Lotz was sentenced to a ten-year direct imprisonment of which three years were suspended for five years.

He was found in possession of 125 images of child pornography. Lotz was also sentenced to three years direct imprisonment for sexual assault which was suspended for five years.

Capt Frederick van Wyk, Western Cape police spokesperson, says the police are pleased with the outcome.

The matter was investigated by the police’s provincial family violence, child protection and sexual offences (FCS) unit.

The unit was made aware of Lotz being in possession of child pornography in October 2016.

According to Van Wyk the offices at the Atlantis magistrate’s court as well as the convict’s house were searched. “Exhibits were seized by the provincial cyber crime unit,” Van Wyk explains.

Lotz first appeared in court on 31 December 2016 on charges of the possession of child pornography and sexual assault.

A further order is made that his name be recorded in the sexual offences register and that he is found unfit to work with children and also unfit to possess a firearm, police say.

Honouring the City’s biggest tree T

According to a statement, six of the champion trees recognised in the province are located at Arderne Gardens in Claremont. Pictured are the City of Cape Town’s officials and the Friends of the Company’s Garden.

he Ficus Elastica in the Company’s Garden was crowned a champion tree by the national department of environment, forestry and fisheries on Friday 15 November.

According to a statement this is one of the 90 remarkable trees identified for the Champion Tree Project run by the department nationwide. It is 27 metres tall and the branches reach 38.4 metres wide. It is located at the northern entrance of the garden. The tree is said to be part of the Ficus genus species, which is native to north-east India and southern Indonesia and forms part of the Banyan group of figs.

Explaining the project, the statement reads: “The significance of the recognition of champion trees is that it has protected status under the National Forests Act. “In terms of the act, no person may cut, disturb, damage or destroy any protected tree or possess, collect, remove, transport, export, purchase, sell, donate or in any other manner acquire or dispose of any protected tree or any forest product derived from a protected tree, except under a licence granted by the minister or in terms of an

exemption from the provisions.

Contravention of the act is seen as an offence that may result in a fine or imprisonment for a period up to three years.”

Zahid Badroodien, the City of Cape Town’s Mayco member for community services and health, says the City’s recreation and parks department is delighted about the accolade.

He says it is only through recognition, education and awareness that the City will be better prepared to care for trees.

Badroodien says trees carry a lot of history and the ones in the Company’s Garden are a unique variety that form part of Africa’s forest and tree heritage.

“The recognition and acknowledgement mean a lot as champion trees are now enjoying protected status.

“Trees with such significance should get the care they deserve as it also plays an important role in the ecosystem and educating future generations in showing respect for nature.

“I cannot imagine a city without trees – let us share the responsibility to protect these treasures,” says Badroodien.

New horizons for drag pageant The eighth Ms Drag Ambassador Beauty Queen will be crowned at the Kensington Civic Centre on Saturday 30 November.

The pageant, owned and run under the banner of the Ms Drag Ambassador South Africa Organisation (a registered non-profit organisation), creates a platform for drag and female impersonation to be recognised on a grand scale.

This year’s pageant theme is “Disney Reloaded” and patrons are invited to dress accordingly.

An array of contestants will take to the stage to vie for the title. Audience members will also be treated to spectacular entertainment including performances by drag cabaret artists and DJ Cool J. “We aim to select a Queen who is a role model, who embodies the values and morals of fairness and impartiality, a healthy respect for the rights of all people within and out-

side of the boundaries of the Western Cape and South Africa at large, irrespective of creed or colour, religion or affiliation, gender or orientation, disability or vulnerability and who is recognized as an ambassador of her community and LGBTI matters,” says Logan McGregor, the host and owner of the pageant.

McGregor, a multi-beauty pageant title holder, launched the event in 2012. She is a former Ms Mardi Gras National, former Ms Gay Western Cape and the current Ms Diva South Africa.

Today the pageant is one of the highlights on the LGBTI calendar.

It also enjoys the support of local heterosexual Kensington communities.

The Kensington Civic Centre has been home to the pageant from the beginning. McGregor, who hails from Kensington, embarked on this project to plough back into the com-

Police recover jewellery after high-speed chase DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke Brackenfell police in collaboration with the flying squad, K9 unit, SJC Security and local neighbourhood watches on Friday, after a high-speed chase on the R300, recovered a vehicle used in housebreakings in Brackenfell and Bellville. Stolen jewellery were found in the vehicle. The suspects fled on foot after abandoning the vehicle in Philippi East.

The Toyota Yaris was first spotted after a housebreaking in Dvorak Street, Protea Heights last Monday 18 November. “A resident in the street broke one of the side mirrors of the car with his walking stick as the vehicle sped away from the crime scene,” says Capt Erica Crous, spokesperson of Brackenfell police station. A description of the vehicle and registration number was given to police.

On Friday 22 November at about 15:00 police spotted the same vehicle in Hillcrest, Brackenfell. WO Henry Waterson and Sgt Kobus Grobler received information on the

vehicle and started searching the area.

They spotted the vehicle at Cindy Court in Welgelee, where they observed it for a while. They noticed that it had a different registration number. “The officers arranged with SJC Security and neighbourhood watches to block all the exit routes. Minutes later two men got into the vehicle and sped away at high speed in the direction of Durbanville,” says Crous.

Police called for back up and the vehicle was picked up again in Voortrekker Road, where a chase ensued down the R300.

“At some stage the SJC vehicle attempted to block the Yaris, which collided with the security vehicle, but sped away again.”

The vehicle was followed into Philippi East where it was found abandoned after the suspects got away.

Implements used in burglaries, such as a crowbar and pick axe were found in the vehicle, along with the suspected stolen jewellery. Police say all leads will be investigated in an effort to arrest the suspects.

munity in which she was raised.

“This gathering signifies the vision of the Ms Drag Ambassador South Africa Organisation, aligning communities and merging our people into a collective population, ignorant and blind to physical differences and preferences which are the causes of disharmony in our communities,” says McGregor.

The pageant is also a platform for fundraising for its beneficiaries.

Winners are expected to participate in upliftment of disadvantaged and vulnerable communities and as such, raise funds for the selected beneficiaries.

The primary beneficiary is the KenFac (Kensington/Factreton) Meals on Wheels organisation which feeds more than 200 people in need, daily.

Reigning Queen Adrienne Galagatsi embarked on a food drive of which proceeds will be handed over

The 2018 second princess, Zoe Cox; 2017 winner, Layla Zokufa Khan; 2018 winner, Adrienne Galagatsi; pageant owner, Logan McGregor; and 2018 first princess, Skyler Barrymore. to the KenFac Meals on Wheels organisation on the night of the pageant.

Call for public comment on new licence plates and fees The public have been asked to comment on the allocation of a new provincial licence mark to all registering authorities of the Western Cape.

Bonginkosi Madikizela, MEC for transport and public works, published this notice in the provincial gazette on Friday 15 November.

“This move is a pre-emptive one, driven by the rate at which the department calls for input into new provincial licence mark for motor vehicles and vehicle licence fee increase. The current ‘CAA’ and ‘CAW’ licence numbers are fast approaching the 100 000 mark, both events expected to happen within the next month,” says Jandré Bakker, spokesperson for the department.

Other practical reasons for considering a provincial licence mark as opposed to adding more local marks to the existing ones are: . a municipality having multiple licence marks allocated to its registering authorities, e.g. the City with the CA, CAA, CEY, CF, CFM, CFR and CY licence marks. This situation sometimes leads to the manipulation of address information on NaTIS where a vehicle owner favours a particular licence mark of another area over his/her local licence mark.

. more than one municipality shares the same licence mark, e.g. the municipalities of Theewaterskloof and Overstrand share the CAM licence mark. . the current municipal areas do not in all respects align with the areas of the then department of inland revenue through which licence marks were originally established and allocated. This situation leads to a vehicle being allocated with a licence number that contains a licence mark (as programmed on NaTIS) at a registering authority that is not part of the local municipality of the vehicle owner – a situation where revenue (through vehicle licence fees) is then not paid to the correct municipality.

“When the CAW licence mark reaches 100 000 licence numbers it will be replaced by the new licence mark CAG as published in Provincial Gazette 7884, on 26 February 2018. This is an interim arrangement until such time that a new provincial licence mark is in place to cover all the areas of the province,” Bakker says.

The CAA licence mark will, however, be allowed to exceed 100 000, in the interim, as the higher than expected demand for CAA licence numbers will not allow for a new lo-

cal licence mark to be published in time. This means that such a licence number will therefore consist of a combination of 9 characters. However, the department would like to advise the public, traffic law enforcement authorities, as well as certified number plate manufacturers that one of the five sizes of number plates that are legally allowed on vehicles registered before 1 January 2010 will not comply with the SABS standards (SANS code) if a 9-character licence number is used. Therefore, instead of the 440mm x 120mm size number plate, the 520mm x 113mm size must be used as this will enable motorists to still comply with the law. As at 12 November 2019, 81964 CAA numbers have been allocated since its introduction on 13 April 2019.

In terms of the increase in vehicle licence fees, the notice proposed an average increase of approximately 4.5%.

“This is in line with inflation. Licence fees are, among other activities, predominantly used for maintenance and building of the road infrastructure,” Bakker says.

Public comment must be lodged

by Friday 13 December.

Diabetes testing a must TARRYN-LEIGH SOLOMONS @tarryns07 ou might have heard or read about diabetes, or you know someone with diabetes, or perhaps you are diabetic.

Much has been done to raise awareness of the impact that diabetes has on the individual and family.

World Diabetes Day was commemorated on 14 November and the focus was on prevention and lifestyle changes such as regular check-ups, achieving a healthy body weight and exercise.

The provincial health department’s Northern Tygerberg Substructure’s Zolani Zenzile told TygerBurger out of the 23 032 screenings done between April 2018 and October 2019, 1 899 patients were diagnosed with diabetes. He said people are at risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes, if: . you are over 45 years old; . you exercise less than three times per week; . you have high blood pressure; . you are overweight; and . you have a family history of Type 2 diabetes.

“It is important to prioritise healthy lifestyles. Physical activity and healthy eating are considered essential in combating a number of lifestyle diseases, including diabetes. Many deaths and complications can be avoided. We would therefore like to encourage people to go for screening. The department has free testing available at all clinics. Those with a family history of diabetes are often at risk of developing the disease,” said provincial minister Nomafrench Mbombo.

Zenzile explained that diabetes is a condition in which your body is unable to use the glucose from the food you eat. “Glucose comes from foods such as breads, cereals, pasta, rice, potatoes, fruits and some vegetables. To use glucose, your body needs insulin, which is made by a gland in your body called the pancreas. The disease affects one’s metabolism which can cause excessive urination and continuous thirst.

“There are two types. Type 1 occurs when the pancreas stops producing insulin.

These patients must inject insulin to survive. Type 2 diabetes is caused when the insulin, which the pancreas produces, is either not enough or does not work properly,” he said. “Approximately 85 to 90% of all people with diabetes are type 2, and many people who have this condition are undiagnosed.”

According to Zenzile early diagnosis is important. “If you are over 35 and have any of the risk factors, you should be tested every year. A simple finger-prick test at your local pharmacy or clinic can diagnose the strong likelihood that you may have diabetes within a minute. “Diabetes is a serious illness. If it is left untreated or is not well managed, the high levels of blood glucose associated with diabetes can slowly damage both the fine nerves and the small and large blood vessels in the body, resulting in a variety of complications. These include heart disease, blindness, amputation, kidney disease and erectile dysfunction or impotence.

The good news is that with careful management, these complications can be delayed and even prevented, but early diagnosis is very important,” he said.

Symptoms of diabetes include frequent urination, excessive thirst, increased hunger, unusual weight loss, tiredness, lack of interest and concentration, blurred vision, frequent or recurring infections, cuts and bruises that are slow to heal, boils and itching skin, tingling and numbness in the hands or feet, and vomiting and stomach pain (often mistaken as the flu).

“These symptoms may not all present together, which is why it is important to go for regular blood glucose testing. Testing is free at any government clinic,” he said.

According to Zenzile, people are still able to lead a normal life after they’ve been diagnosed.

Lego bricks are for ‘kids’ of all ages NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk For years Lego has enchanted children around the globe.

With movies, board games, robotics, books and even clothing, the humble brick has morphed into a multi-billion dollar industry.

In the background, it has also had a growing following of a different kind – adults.

No longer are parents doomed to unintentionally step on their children’s lego bricks and hurting themselves while barefoot. These days grown-ups step on their own lego bricks.

These adults are called Afols - Adult Fans Of Lego. Increasingly these Afols are getting together to share their passion for the interlocking plastic brick.

The CapeLUG group (LEGO User Group) was formed in 2016 by Marick Hornsveld from Somerset West. The group now has 44 members from across the Cape.

They come together bi-monthly in Pinelands and have building competitions.

Every other month they have a social gathering called Brickday.

Here members can share ideas and show what they’re working on.

In March 2019 the group was officially recognised by the Lego Group in Denmark and now CapeLUG has also achieved RLUG status in March 2019 (Recognised LEGO®️ User Group), which means CapeLUG is now recognised by the LEGO®️ Group in Denmark.

Elmar Wentzel, one of the members who lives in Malmesbury, says he finds his hobby very relaxing.

An engineer by day, he enjoys “following the instructions and creating something without thinking too much about it”.

He spends around seven to eight hours a week on it but says it’s not enough. He shares the hobby with his wife, Colleen, and together they have a separate room for their collection.

The cost of it all differs from person to person, he says.

“Like any hobby, it depends on yourself how extreme you want to go. It is a quality product and also has collector’s value.”

He realised he wasn’t the only adult who enjoys Lego around four years ago when he spent time in a toy shop looking at the product.

Here he met other shoppers and they started chatting about their passion. Elmar says the biggest joy is when the group displays their goods at malls. “The expression on children’s faces during public displays - absolutely priceless!”

Your chance to see one of these displays in real life (and even sign up) is fast approaching. The next CapeLUG will be on 30 November from 09:00 to 16:00 at Willowbridge Shopping Centre.

Around 40 tables will display all sorts of Lego creations and organisers say this will be the biggest CapeLUG display to date.

Ripped Genes for Retina SA D

on those ripped jeans and get ready for the Ripped Genes Concert which takes place on Saturday 7 December at 15:00 to 17:00 at the Artscape Theatre.

The show features a talented line-up of blind and sighted artists in an explosion of musical genres, dance, art and fashion under the direction of producer, Natalia da Rocha.

This event is a fundraiser hosted by Retina SA Cape Town, a non-profit, voluntary organisation raising awareness of retinal blindness as well as raising funds for research to find a cure for retinal blindness.

Tickets cost R120 and are available at Computicket and the Artscape box office.

Pensioners and students pay R80.

You can also support the BackaBuddy crowdfunding campaign, where R150 can

give a disadvantaged person or child the gift of a theatre experience.

The artists are a mix of seasoned and new local talent, with a few returning on popular demand. Among the musical talent are jazz and classical singer, Michelle Botha, songbird and radio personality, Bonita Blankenberg, piano maestro, Rodney van Staden and Noeha Fortune Waja and world music duo, Mystacrispi, to name a few.

Throw in a good measure of art, dance and fashion by Ravenwear.

Manny Moodley, chair of Retina SA Cape Town, says Retina SA has established itself as a world player in the field of research into genetic retinal blindness.

“We have now been invited to participate in the first in Africa clinical trial for a genetic eye disease - Stargardt Disease. We have partnered with the University of Cape Town to estabNatalia da lish a state of the art diagRocha nostic panel to identify the gene mistakes causing retinal vision loss – the first step to treatments for all South Africans.”

Director/producer, Natalia da Rocha has been pouring her skills into the Applauz Arts Initiative started by her and husband, actor Kurt Egelhof, to put young talent on the stage. All the artists perform pro-bono as well as volunteers who provide the back stage support during performance.

Things to consider with holiday homes W

hen going away at the end of the year, chances are that one dreams about what it would be like to live in their favourite holiday town full-time – or at least think about the possibility of buying a property there that they could let out most of the time and also use as their vacation home.

“People who are enjoying a perfect getaway often start to think like this, which is why the July and December holiday seasons in South Africa’s coastal and country resort areas are generally boom times for local estate agents,” Carl Coetzee, chief executive officer of home loan originator BetterBond, said.

He further said that buy-to-let investments in holiday homes can be very rewarding, but as any other property, buyers should avoid making decisions in haste and do some proper research before they commit to relocation or purchase of a second home.

“For example, holidaymakers keen to relocate should bear in mind that they probably always

see their favourite area at its best – when it is full of other happy visitors and when the best weather can be expected.

“Out of season, the area could be wet and windy, for example, or too hot for comfort. It will most likely also offer fewer employment opportunities and much lower prospects of establishing and sustaining a new business. It thus makes sense to delay your decision until you are back in ‘work mode’ – and until you have visited the sea at different times of the year to ensure that it really offers the lifestyle you envisage. Prices are also likely to be more negotiable if you buy in the off-season.”

Coetzee said that if one’s plan is to buy a second home that they can use for their own holidays and let out on a short-term basis for the rest of the year, one will also need to check the demand for holidays in off-peak times to ensure the best return on their investment.

“In addition, you should be prepared for the fact that it is usually tougher to obtain a bond for a second home than your primary resi-

dence, even if it will be bringing in rental income.

“Most lenders will be looking for you to pay a sizeable deposit on any buy-to-let property and will still probably only offer you a home at a higher rate of interest than on your primary property.

“However, you can ensure that you get the best possible financing deal by applying through a reputable originator like BetterBond. Our multi-lender application process ensures that the banks know they are competing for your home loan business. This not only speeds up the response time, but also ensures that lenders immediately make their ‘best offers’ applicable to your financial circumstances.

“You get to choose the best terms and interest rate available, and this can make a significant difference to the affordability and long-

Buyers should avoid making decisions in haste and do some proper research before they commit.

command the highest rentals, but they also cost more to own.”

He said the municipal rates on these properties are usually higher and more subject to weathering that can mean much higher maintenance costs than anyone used to living inland might expect.

When planning to buy a holiday home that is exclusively for one’s own use, Coetzee said one may well be attracted to one of the many security developments that have sprung up around coastal towns and villages to meet the rising demand for lock-up-and-leave weekend homes.

“But here, too, you need to keep a cool head. Buying anything offplan calls for special efforts to ensure that the completed development will meet your expectations, while even if you are buying a completed home it is important to ensure that it is close to the amenities or activities you want to enjoy in your leisure time – whether that is shopping, night life, or recreational and sporting facilities.

term cost of your property – and thus the profitability of your investment.”

He said that on a R1 million home loan taken over 20 years, for example, a 0.5% lower interest rate translates into savings of around R4000 a year and almost R80 000 on the cumulative cost of the property.

“When it comes to finances,” he said, “prospective buyers of second homes or holiday properties also need to consider transfer costs, ongoing municipal rates and levies and any capital gains tax implications should they later decide to sell.

“If your favourite holiday haunt is at the coast, you will also need to weigh up the advantages and disadvantages of buying a property close to the beach. Beachfront properties will be the most soughtafter by other holidaymakers and

Belhar Dolphins fall NOORE NACERODIEN

L

ittle after a week after going down 17-4 to Falcons, Belhar Dolphins fought hard, but ultimately succumbed to Westridge Yankees 7-5 in their Cape Town Softball Association Major league match in Turfhall on Sunday 24 November.

Elsewhere, Table View Tornadoes felt the wrath of Falcons, going down 9-4.

In the Super League, both games produced tight finishes.

In a game that produced 24 hits, Glenthorn A’s edged out Kenfac Phillies 8-7 in the early game.

A’s started off with four runs in the first innings, but Phillies’ Carla Swanepoel (2/4) was having none of that and cleared the boundary cones, scoring 3 runs in the pro-

cess.

Jenna Moses (3/4) fared best with the bat for Phillies with 3 scattered singles. Phillies came back strong in their last turn at bat but with bases loaded failed to produce when it mattered most. The game was marred by both sides not able to capitalise on having runners on base with Phillies (10) and A’s (8) runners left stranded on base.

A’s took 15 hits off Ester van den Heever whilst Phillies scored nine hits off Lisa Erasmus who struck out 3 batters and gave up a 6 free bases.

Lefty, Courtney Stevens, was the pick of the A’s batting with a flawless 4/4, including a double. Former Old Mutual Cubs stalwart, Zulfah Stellenboom (3/3), and Chaunees Goliath (2/3) were the other top offensive performers for

A’s.

In the late game Westridge Yankees held on to inflict a first loss on Lavender Hill beating them 4-3.

Other results: Major league: Westridge Yankees 7, Belhar Dolphins 5; Lavender Hill 18, Kuils River Cougars 2; Falcons 9, Table View Tornados 4 First league: Panthers 5, Glenthorn A’s 11; St Martins 10, Lavender Hill 2; Battswood 14, Blackheath 1; Crusaders 0, Khayelitsha Eagles 7 Second league: Kenfac Phillies 7, Titans 11; Table View Tornados 0, Devonshire Rovers 16; Falcons 10, Tantasport 3

Local race attracts elite triathletes Pablo Dapena took the crown in the inaugural Challenge CapeTown on Sunday 10 November, when he sprinted to the finish line in a time of 3:46:48.

The Spaniard finished approximately 90 seconds ahead of Australia’s Steven McKenna in second place, with local men’s contestant Matt Trautman coming in third.

First out of the water after a strong swim, Dapena formed part of a six-man bunch that dominated most of the 90km cycle from Big Bay into the Company’s Garden. But it was on the run where he showed his strength, and he quickly set the pace in front, together with McKenna, with Trautman following close behind. Dapena was ecstatic about his victory.

“The conditions were amazing. I had a great swim and enjoyed the flat and fast bike. The run was a little windy at times and that hill was a challenge, but I loved racing in Cape Town, and I hope to be back next year”.

The women’s race belonged to the UK’s Emma Pallant, who took a convincing win in 4:14:51 – seven minutes faster than South Africa’s Annah Watkinson, and almost 10 minutes ahead of fellow British pro Laura Siddall.

“I loved the swim and the run was tough,” noted Pallant. “The flat and fast bike made for an awesome day, and I had great fun on the course.”

This was a historic day for the race organisers, who successfully staged the first middle distance triathlon in the City of Cape Town. The 1.9km swim, 90km cycle and 21km run showcased the Mother City in a way that no mass participation event athlete has seen it before.

The day dawned to a misty but wind-free Big Bay, and the race opened with ideal swim conditions and water temperatures reaching 15.5°C. The cycle followed, which comprised three spectacularly scenic loops along Otto du Plessis Drive with its uninterrupted ocean views, followed by a ride into the City, and a final sprint along Adderley Street and Government Avenue in the Company’s Garden.

This was the first time that a cycle race went through the historic Garden.

The 21km run through the Zonnebloem and District Six precinct showcased many of the City’s most historically significant landmarks, including Parliament, City Hall, and the Castle of Good Hope. Three 7km laps completed the run, which included a brutal climb from the Castle all the way up to the M3.

“We couldn’t have asked for better conditions to stage this inaugural event,” said race director Gary Marescia.

The race attracted participants from 20 countries across the globe, with women making up 27% of the field.

SEASON FINALE: MOTOR RACING AT ITS BEST

Power Series revup T

he season finale of this year’s Power Series sponsored by Wingfield Motors at Killarney International Raceway on Saturday 30 November features an additional attraction in the form of a one-hour endurance race for the Burly Pro GTi Challenge racers. This category, as its name suggests, is only open to Volkswagens of various models, nearly all using some version of the proven two-litre GTi engine.

The longer format gives race fans a rare opportunity to watch frantic pit-stops, tyre swops, driver changes and even emergency repairs after crashes or breakdowns. Its a fascinating aspect of motor racing that we don’t get to see in the exciting quick-fire eight and 10-lap sprint races that make up the regional championship Power Series at the home of motorsport in the Western Cape.

The bumper programme for the day also includes sprint races for the GTi Challenge, Shatterfix Fine and Millstock Cars Pre 1980 and 1990 Cars, V8 Masters and Makita Supercars, Pirelli Sports and GT cars and Formula Libre open-wheelers, as well as two motorcycle categories, the RST Trac Mac Clubmans, Classic and Breakfast Run Motorcycles and

the RST Trac Mac Powersport Motorcycles.

Each round of the Power Series also includes a Fan Walk during the lunch break when spectators are invited down onto the circuit to meet the drivers and see the cars up close.

Fine food and ice-cold drinks are available at the revamped, upmarket Trackside Pub and Grill. Light snacks and even colder drinks are at the New Pits Lounge and the Karting Clubhouse. Watch all the action, captured by cameras all around the circuit, as well as live timing, on TV screens on the Clubhouse Balcony and in the New Pits Lounge.

Bring the whole family - there are pedal karts, jungle gyms and more for petrolheadsin-training at the Clubhouse Kiddies Korner and below the New Pits Lounge. Parents of toddlers are welcomed to the Kiddies Korner nursery, where you’ll find fridges to keep juice boxes cold, nappy-changing and breastfeeding facilities, as well as toilets and washup facilities for running repairs. Gates open at 07:30, with racing beginning at 10:00.

The Burly Pro GTi Challenge racers will take on a one-hour endurance race.

Enter now for Gugs Race This year the ever-popular RCS Gugs Race celebrates its 20th anniversary as Cape Town’s Reconciliation Day (16 December) race – where runners and supporters from all cultural groups and all walks of life will come together in the spirit of peace and unity.

Title sponsor RCS - a subsidiary of global French bank BNP Paribas Personal Finance - has been integral to the growth of this important sporting event over the past ten years, and CEO Regan Adams believes the ethos of the race is more relevant to the country and its people now than ever.

VEntries are available online via www.entrytime.com or at the venue on race day from 05:30 onwards.
