1.1 SUBMISSION OF THE ANNUAL REPORT TO THE EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY

MEC Xoliswa Tom MEC of Sport Recreation , Arts and Culture

In accordance with section �0(�) of the Public FinanceManagement Act and the National Treasury Regulations, I hereby submit the Annual Report of Albany Museum for the period � April �009 to �� March �0�0.

1.2 Chairperson’s Report 1 April 2009 To 31 March 2010

It is my privilege to present to you the Chairperson’s report for the financial year � April �009 to �� March �0�0.

1.2.1 Composition of Board

The membership of the Board of Trustees of the Albany Museum is determined largely by appointments by the MEC for Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture. There have been no changes of Board membership in terms of MEC appoint-ments. Two members of the Board are appointed by the paid-up members of the Museum at the AGM each year, for one year at a time. At last year’s AGM we said farewell to Prof Pat Irwin as a members’ representative, and welcome in his place to Prof Malvern van Wyk Smith, who returned as members’ elected representative after absence of one year. The other members’ representative, Prof Roy Lubke, was re-elected at the last AGM.

Appointment of new Museum Director

After our previous Director, Dr Lita Webley, resigned her posi-tion in June �008 to take a post in Cape Town Mr Cecil Non-qane was acting Director of the Museum until April �009, when our new Director, Mr Bongani Mgijima, was appointed. We thank Mr Nonqane for his service as acting Director for nine months. Mr Nonqane retired from service at the end of �009, and we thank him for his many years of service to the museum, and wish him a long and happy retirement. Our new Director, Mr Mgijima is, unlike previous Directors, not a scientist who has stepped into museum administration, but someone with a professional qualification in museum administration. He has made a difference to the running of the museum by his strict adherence to management and financial protocols. His capabilities in the nuts and bolts of management, and insistence on proper procedures, have made the task of the Board easier.

Board meetings

The Board met six times during the year. Attendance has been mixed, with some attending nearly every meeting, whilst others were less than regular. Part of the problem, at least, is that the present Board is still running in an interim capacity. I have remarked on this in previous annual reports. The current Eastern Cape Museums Act of �00� makes provision for a different system of management, with the main duties falling on the shoulders of a provincial Museums Council, and some local input from a museum committee. This new system will only kick in once the envisaged Mu-seums Council is appointed. Until then the existing Board continues to hold office and exercise powers as before. I am sure it was never intended that this “interim arrangement” would continue indefinitely, but that is what has happened. It is certainly a less than satisfactory arrangement, and, as I seem to keep saying each year, I hope that by this time next year the permanent system will be up and running.

Activities during the year

We have become accustomed to being treated to at least one major exhibition in the museum each year. In theprevious year it was the exhibition of significant manuscripts from Timbuktu. During the present year it was the Grocotts Mail exhibition, recording the major contribution to the life of Grahamstown of this historic newspaper. As we have come to expect, museum staff put together an impressive display: early photographs, articles and printing equipment, amongst other things. Our thanks to the museum staff for this highly professional exhibition.

Thanks

There are many people who help keep this complex ship, the Albany Museum, afloat, and my thanks go to all of them: the museum staff for their dedicated work, the museum Director, Mr Bongani Mgijima, for his professionalism and hard work, and members of the Board for their continued and unremu-nerated devotion to the task of oversight of the Museum’s activities. It is a privilege to be associated with all of you.

1.3 Introduction By The Museum Manager

As stated in my foreword to our Strategic Plan, this year has indeed been a period of immense transition in many ways. The transition between the third and fourth democratically elected government at national and provincial levels went very smooth as expected.

The delisting of Eastern Cape Museums as public entities meant that museums with the approval of the office of Auditor General are now able to appoint their own auditors. Price Waterhouse Coopers was as a result appointed to do the museums’ books. Our books had not been audited for almost two years and finally thanks to all the staff involved our books at least are now in order.

In order to comply with the provisions of the Public Finance Management Act systems of internal control were put in place. Administrative duties of staff members weresegregated in order to minimise risk. A simplified Supply Chain Management System was developed for the museum and workshopped with all staff members. Lots of time was also spent on improving the museum’s bookkeeping to ensure that information is available when needed and that decisions are based on sound management accountingprinciples. Thanks to my colleague and mentor Mr Cecil Nonqane who retired in February after more than �0 years service to the community of Grahamstown. Without hiswisdom and mentorship skills we would not have been where we are. Siyabulela Radebe, Mthimkhulu, Bungane, Mashwabada!

The Albany Museum Transformation and Development Framework was integrated into the Eastern Cape Strategic Museum Infrastructure Maintenance Plan which wassubmitted to the Department for possible funding.

In terms of vehicle management we introduced a system of control over the usage of vehicles. A transport officer wasappointed to oversee the management of all museumvehicles. A new fleet management system offered byStandard Bank was introduced and it is working very well.

Thanks to our Technical Services Department our grounds and buildings are maintained on a daily basis. The area in front of the Natural Science Museum was paved in order to make the area appealing. Mr Mitchell, the Head of Technical Services sadly passed away during the year under review and was replaced by Mr ‘Heine Kohl. Mr Mitchell was a very gentle and hard working man. His memory will forever be cherished by all of us at Albany Museum.

The position of a Museum librarian is still vacant. This indeed is not a very good situation given the Museum’s standing within the research community. Ms Noluvuyo Mabutya has been seconded to the library so as to keep it functioning on an interim basis.

As part of an ongoing process to brand the Albany Museum a corporate image was designed and implemented. Museum branding, in an era of globalisation, is very important. The Museum’s website has also been updated with newinformation.

The number of people who visit our museums has notincreased that much. Keeping the museum open onSaturdays and public holidays has remained a big challenge. Paying staff for overtime work has become problematic as it is the responsibility of the Department to oversee thepayment of overtime to museum staff members who are all public servants. If this problem is not solved the museum might have to consider closing on these days as staffrotation is not possible.

The Museum has entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with Rhodes University for the management of research funding from the National Research Foundation. AlbanyMuseum is an associated research institution of Rhodes University and it makes sense to collaborate on research matters.

As usual the Department of Archaeology has been very busy. Lots of Heritage Impact Assessment Studies were conducted for developers to ensure that development does not impact on our precious heritage resources. Negotiations wereentered into with Bayworld Museum and our Board of Trustees approved the transfer of Bayworld’s archaeological collection to Albany Museum. The Museum also received lots of requests from Archaeologists to study its collection of human remains. An intern has been appointed for a period of twelve months starting from next April.

The Curator of Anthropology Mr Mpho Molapisi resigned to take up a promotion at the national department. He was replaced by Ms Phumeza Mntonintshi who was previously working as the Collections Manager for humanities.

The History Department, with the approval of the Board of Trustees, began the process of repatriating all items loaned to it. It is also currently negotiating a Memorandum of Understanding with the Department of Fine Arts at Rhodes University for the management of its Art collection.The Department of Freshwater Invertebrates is currently working together with SAIAB on the curation of its


9

collections. A Memorandum of Agreement will be signing in the next financial year. Mrs Helen James is continuing with her studies towards her PHD.

The positions of Curatorial staff in the EntomologyDepartment still remain vacant. Drs Sarah and Fred Gesscontinue to be custodians of this section albeit on avoluntary basis. Given the importance of this section it is regrettable that this position has been vacant for so long. An intern has been appointed as from next April �0�0 and Drs Gess have agreed to mentor this intern. Hopefully these positions will be advertised sooner than later.

For most part of the year under review Dr Billy de Klerk was away on sick leave. However on his return he has managed to catch up and is currently negotiating partnerships with institutions in China. Mr Luvuyo Mayi attended a courseoffered by the University of Witwatersrand.

The herbarium collection continues to grow and is being utilised by national and scientists from far afield.

Ms Marijke Cosser, Head of Education retired inDecember after more than �0 years at Albany Museum. She was replaced by Ms Catherine Lambley who previous worked in the Exhibitions Department. Ms Bulelwa Sontshatsha also sadly passed away during the year under review. Ms Nozipho Madinda was appointed head of the Mobile Museum and in order to maximise the role played by the Mobile Museum it was separated from the Education Department.

The Exhibitions Department hosted a number ofexhibitions during the Scifest and the National ArtsFestival. A major highlight was the opening of the Mandela and Luthuli exhibition on loan from the Nelson Mandela Museum in Mthatha. The museum also hosted tow other exhibitions namely De-class-ification and the Grocotts Mail.

Funding for museums and Albany Museum, in particular, still remain a challenge. Museums under apartheid were grossly underfunded. Unfortunately this trend is continuing almost �� years into our democracy. It is no secret that museums under apartheid were designed for only ten percent of the total population. Now museums have to extend their services to serve the 90 percent of the population which was previously excluded. While the mandate has been widened the funding has been slowly shrinking.

This chronic state of affairs has and continues to undermine the fundamental imperative of transformation. Our budget for the next financial year bears testimony to the direfinancial situation faced by museums. The paltry amount of

R�98 �00 granted to the Albany Museum as a subsidy for �0�0/�� will go straight into the payment of municipalservices leaving nothing for programs let alonetransformation. To function properly a museum the size of Albany Museum needs an operational budget of at least R�0 million a year. Until somebody begins to listen to our plights our museums will continue to go the way of the dodo bird.

1.4 Mission statement

Vision

Our vision is to become a Museum that is an integral part of our community, contributing to the process of nationbuilding through nurturing a society that is aware of the value of its past and is constructively engaged in the present in order to create a better future.

Mission

To fulfill this vision the Museum will:

• Develop representative collections reflecting our social and natural environment with particular reference to the Eastern Cape;

• Preserve and hold these collections in trust for the nation;

• Enrich our knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the collections through research;

• Render our collections accessible and usable to all;

• Assert that education for all is integral to all our activities and central to our public service role.

2.1 MUSEUM PROGRAMME 1: ADMINISTRATION

Subprogramme: Finance

During my four months maternity leave, I had trained my subordinate Ms Tammin Ramsamy to work on my behalf. I also inspected procurement orders. Emphasis on tidiness and filing was the major principles of the day. I motivated and reminded colleagues about Batho Pele Principleswhenever necessary. During the three year period, from �008 to �0�0 I was involve in stock-take of the museum, being the leader in that part compiling the sheets being involved in whole process until its finished. I also oversaw that all assets were accessioned documented and entered to the asset register.

Subprogramme: General Support

Maintenance of attendance register was done and follow ups on AWOLS to ensure that leave taken is not paid.Temporally Incapacity forms were submitted to Proactive Health Solution in East London for � officials. One official went on maternity leave. Two officials were sent to Fort England for the treatment of Substance Abuse. Forms for the Termination of Service were signed correctly and neatly in black ink for four officials and sent to Head Office, e.g. two deaths and two retired. Seven officials were sent oncomputer course at Rhodes University, � officials were sent for workshop training carpentry and plumbing, one official sent to Wits University for Palaeontology, one sent on an Ichthyology Course in Johannesburg and two sent for Pastel Course in Port Elizabeth. All loose Administration documents were transformed into books as part ofprofessional paper trail keeping. Long outstanding repairs to four Museum vehicles during the course of the year were done.

2.2 MUSEUM PROGRAMME 2: PROFFESSIONAL SERVICES

Subprogramme: Archaeology

During �009 and �0�0, three researchers from overseas and local universities visited the Department of Archaeology. Prof S. Pfeiffer and a PhD student, Ms C. Merritt, both from the University of Toronto in Canada, conducted research on the pre-colonial skeletons in the human remains collection. Ms T. Campbell, a PhD student from the University of Cape Town, also studied the human remains collection in search of evidence of Tuberculosis in pre-colonial human remains.

Dr Binneman and Ms Booth travelled to Mazeppa Bay, Cape St Francis and Port Elizabeth on request of the South African Heritage Resources Agency’s Burial and Graves Unit to investigate human skeletons that were exposed by wind in pre-colonial shell middens.

Dr Binneman and Ms Booth were invited on a �-day hike into the Kei River Valley to survey the area for unrecorded andrecorded rock art sites, mainly the historic paintingsobserved by early traveller George Stow, by Mr Victor Biggs of Thomas River, July/August �009.

Ms Booth attended a rock art workshop, Rock ArtConservation Treatment and Interventions, Southern African Rock Art Project, in August �009 in Clanwilliam. She alsoattended a ceramics workshop at the University of Pretoria, in Pretoria in March �0�0.

Ms Booth visited Buckland farm outside Grahamstown on invitation of the landowners to advise them on the status, protection and conservation of the rock art on their prop-erty. She compiled a rock art management plan for the rock art shelter on the farm.

Dr Binneman and Ms Booth presented a power pointpresentation, the heritage act and archaeology at museums, at the South African Museum Association meeting, in Port Elizabeth, September �009. Both staff members presented five power point presentations at different venues during the �009 and �0�0.

Subprogramme : Anthropology

In November �009 Anthropology department andHerbarium agreed to start a joint project on Calabashes. The idea was to promote awareness about these cultural

artefacts .Anthropology was to look at mostly thetraditional effects or uses, then Herbarium to look atscientific or genetic uses as well as their health hazardless when used as containers, et cetera.

We sat down and draw guidelines on how to tackle the most important issues that would help us achieve our objective. Both departments were eager to contribute towards revival of these heritage resources thus regaining their deserved status. Never the less time was against us to start right away since it was towards end of the year then we decided to start in February �0�0.

February �0�0 we then met and formulate a presentation document that will be used for educational purposes. It will be a multi -discipline paper which combines people from all walks of life. It’s a power point presentation whichcombines pictures and words. There are also oral recordings and photographs done from local societies by elderlycommunity members, traditional healers and youth. All these people explain their knowledge of calabashes and how they affect our culture. Fortunately the presentationpaper was staged in Queenstown in March during the Library focus week. Results from presenters were that they have received overwhelming response from children and elderly people. That was a starting point we will continue with outreach programme until our target market has beencovered but the obstacle now is finance since this will involve travelling to the targeted areas. We then decided to apply for outside funding which we still waiting for response.

Again our section has helped under the Arch crafters to draft constitution, accompanied them to seek for assistance to get shelter from the municipality and local businesses. As a result they are busy channelling SEDA to be able to register for tax purposes(SARS) and the municipal data base which will enable them to be awarded arts and craft relatedtenders when in need. Also with the help of Mobilemuseum we have adopted a scholar who knows how to make traditional dolls but does not know how to market her goods. We went to negotiate with the guardian about what can be done to assist the young artist and workshops that she can attend that will improve her skills.

Lastly during Scifest Anthropology dept has captured events happening around museum spaces for record sake as suggested by the museum head. That is something we are proud of because it’s pioneer project ever done by the sec-tion for the benefit of the entire museum.

Subprogramme: History

Two staff members left the Department: Mrs NT Mabutya (Assistant Admin Officer) to be Library Assistant (June �009) and Ms PM Mntonintshi (Collections Manager) to be Curator of Anthropology (September �009). Interviews were held for an Intern in the History Department; Ms A von Wesel was appointed for �0�0.

One evening class “Seed play” was presented to Oatlands School. A special presenta-tion by B Nonqane, F Way-Jones and N Sibawu was done for �� students from St Olaf School from Minnesota on Saturday, �� January �0�0.

Focus Week: “Focus on Five”: Heritage (�� -�9 March). Ms Way-Jones taught four classes from Kuyasa School and Graeme Grade �. A number of students from local schools were assisted in the completion of their heritage projects. A meeting in March with the Education Department officials and Museum educators was productive: a workshop on heritage education and a booklet on research will follow. Ms Way-Jones also conducted a tour for Grade �0 VG and a tour of the Observatory Museum and the churches for ��overseas students. The total number of students (in classes): ��0.

Ms Way-Jones served on three committees: SAMA ECCommittee, the Grahamstown Historical Society (vice-Chairman) for which she presented one talk and a tour and Accessibility Advisory Committee (Chairperson) for which Ms Way-Jones arranged meetings and took minutes.

Ms Sibawu compiled research information on educational institutions, monuments, the Battle of Grahamstown and Makana for student resource files. Ms Sibawu and Way-Jones completed research for a poster on Miss Mary Glanville and Dr Lita Webley (�st women Directors) for National Wom-en’s Day and visited Mary Glanville’s grave; Ms Way-Jones researched Bishop Merriman and his contribution to Gra-hamstown, Colonel Henry Somerset and “Oatlands House” and photographed various graves and sites for talks. Ms Way-Jones arranged for the showing of DVD “The language you cry in” by Dr C Schmidt for the opening of“De-classification”. Visitor queries totalled �88; Ms Way-Jones answered four requests for copies of paintings.

Subprogramme: Freshwater Invertebrates

It was aimed to generate R��0, 000 for research, curation and collection development for the FWI Department. During this financial year R�88, 000 was actually raised although much funding is committed to the �0�0-�0�� year. Mr Zingela has been absent from work for the entire year from � April �009 to �� March �0�0 and this has put a strain on ourmanagement of routine curation. With only a staffcompliment of two permanent plus one seconded staff member we were fortunate in being able to employ a highly skilled technician on a temporary basis from funds for the Tsitsikamma Rivers research project and other SelfGenerated funds. We were also able to train a collections manager and an MSc research student and their services were valuable to develop our collection. All staff attended courses or visited research laboratories to continuedevelopment.

��

It was stated that �0,000 data records would be delivered to SANBI on completion of the data capture funded project. We were able to hand over �9,000 records in August. Further funding to continue this project was acquired. A donation of a copy the �9��-�9�� diaries from a collecting trip inEthiopia by Prof and Dr Joe and Joyce Omer-Cooper was made by their daughter Phoebe. After assisting withidentifications, collections of aquatic insects were donated to the Museum by Dr Steve Lowe and Mr Lightone Marufu respectively from SAIAB and the University of Zimbabwe. Meetings with staff at SAIAB were held to draft anagreement for the Museum to store specimens for molecular research in their storage facility.

In addition to the standard surveys of the Tsitsikamma Rivers two additional surveys were conducted and all datarecorders were retrieved and adult insects for specialresearch purposes were collected. A special visit to Nature’s Valley to undertake insect photography to detail flight behaviour was undertaken. A copy of a special statistical programme CANOCO was acquired for research purposes. As well as three stated one additional presentation was made at a conference in South Africa. Dr de Moor was able to get additional funding from the NRF that enabled him to undertake two weeks research at the Royal Belgian Institute for Natural Sciences in Brussels. Mrs James undertook three weeks research in the Lebnitz Institute of Freshwater Ecology in Berlin. She was able to take a student she had beenhelping along and they both learnt new techniques.

An additional poster on the Albany Museum collectiondatabase was prepared for SANBI. Additional help wasprovided for students doing collections and writing up projects. Data on the history of aquatic science in South Africa was for a report being is also being prepared. Hosted a researcher from the University of Zimbabwe Mr Lightone Marufu in the FWI Department for two weeks and helped him identify aquatic insects he had collected. Mrs James was interviewed by SciCue about her talk “When is a species a species” presented at SciFest (�� and �8 March) and had articles published in SciCue, Grocott’s Mail and the Mail and Guardian.

Subprogramme: Ichthyology

Dr Cambray and Mr Dwani curated collections which came into the department during the year from the Eastern Cape, and from Kwa-Zulu Natal. Dr Cambray and Mr Dwani dealt with requests from the public and scientific colleagues with regard to the collection. Drs Cambray and de Moor had discussions with the Assistant Manager of the museum, Mr

Nonqane, about the wetstore and the options. Mr Dwani continued to learn departmental tasks including database management. Mr Dwani successfully completed a UNISA GIS course which will be helpful in the department.

Dr Britz of the British Museum of Natural History and Dr Cambray are completing their study on theinterrelationships of the African Anabantidae. Dr Paxton and Dr Cambray began writing up the work they did together on early life history and ageing of the Clanwilliam sawfin (Barbus serra) which was part of Dr Paxton’s doctoral thesis. Dr Cambray is working on a manuscript with Mr Sean Marr of UCT, who has recently submitted his doctoral dissertation on alien fish eradication work. Dr Cambray has mentored an MSc student in Brazil over several years and the student would now like to do a manuscript on invasive fish impacts with Dr Cambray. Dr Cambray continues with his manyeditorial tasks for the international journal Hydrobiologia. In addition a number of other scientific journals asked Dr Cambray to review manuscripts during the year, (eg. African Journal of Aquatic Sciences, Freshwater Biology AfricanJournal of Ecology). Dr Cambray was part of the team along with colleagues from the Department of Ichthyology and Fisheries Science at Rhodes University working on a World Bank funded project on the freshwater ecosystems of the Greater Addo Elephant Park. Dr Cambray and colleagues from EnviroFish Africa and SAIAB are part of a team of experts for a World Bank project on Alien Invasive fish eradication which is part of the C.A.P.E. project. Dr Cambray was subcontracted by Arcus Gibb consultants to undertake surveys of the KwaNkwebu River prior to an interbasintransfer. The surveys were completed and a report with recommendations was submitted to the consultants. On the basis of this report the interbasin transfer was shelved which is a success story for conservation.

Dr Cambray did a two week lecture course in Conservation Biology to third year Rhodes University Ichthyology students, conducted a Focus week at the museum for Grahamstown schools and Dr Cambray continues to Chair the community initiative, the Kowie Catchment Campaign (KCC), which has grown in stature and now acts as a central hub forenvironmental issues in Makana. Dr Cambray helped MrLorraine Mullins put together a manuscript entitled ‘Grahamstown’s water supply – a brief history �8�� to �008’ which is a KCC initiative. This has been accepted for theAnnals of Albany Museum. Dr Cambray prepared andpresented a talk on the KCC at the Makana Environmental Forum meeting. Dr Cambray met with the MunicipalManager and her staff to discuss the way forward for the water quality issues in Grahamstown. This resulted in the publication of water quality records in the local paper.

Subprogramme: Entomology AndArachnology

The posts of Curator and Assistant Curator being vacant, Dr FW Gess, Curator Emeritus and Contract Researcher and Dr SK Gess, Contract Researcher, continued to be the official caretakers of the Department of Entomology andArachnology.

Dr FW Gess and Dr SK Gess undertook field work centred on Victoria West, Sutherland and Laingsburg, funded by NRF, between �� September and �� October, the principal goal being to collect additional specimens of Quartinia (Vespidae: Masarinae) for Dr FW Gess’ ongoing revision of this genus. Plants in flower were sampled yielding �� specimens ofMasarinae and numerous specimens of bees. The insect specimens, pinned and fully labelled, deposited in theterrestrial insect collections, are associated with fully labelled pressed plant specimens, deposited in the SchonlandHerbarium, Albany Museum.

An Internship for an entomologist in the department was advertised by the Department of Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture. Two candidates were interviewed. Ms R Tourle, who has been notified that she has been awarded her MSc with distinction from Rhodes University, received a letter of appointment, the post to be taken up on � April �0�0. Ms Tourle’s duties will include the identification of andincorporation into the terrestrial insect collections a large collection of wasps donated by Mr F Herbst in �00�.

Dr FW Gess and Dr SK Gess received a Makana Municipality CAPITEC Civic Award in the category EnvironmentalConservation and Tourism, having been proposed by Dr F de Moor and Ms M Cosser Lewis of the Albany Museum.

Ms B Mtuze was accepted for a computer course at Rhodes University. Her training will be put to good use in thedepartment.

Subprogramme: Earth Sciences

Note from the Curator - Dr W. de Klerk: This past year has been very difficult one from a health point of view as I was in “End Stage Renal Failure” and was placed on haemodialysis from early June till mid November �009. Dialysis treatments were done in Port Elizabeth three times per week which meant that three mornings per week were effectively lost. Happily my sister offered to donate a kidney to me for a transplant operation. I was able to complete the necessary test and arrange for a transplant operation at Groote Schuur

Hospital in Cape Town on �8th November �009. After the operation I was booked off work by the Groote Schuur (Cape Town) doctors until �� January �0�0 to recover fully after this major operation. I would like to place on record my grateful thanks to the management of the Museum for their consid-ered understanding and support during this difficult time in my life.

The main focus of this year has been devoted to thecleaning and preparation of the two newHeterodontosaurus dinosaur fossils that were collected in February and March of �009. These very rare fossils wererecovered from the Dordrecht district of the Eastern Cape (see pictures). Mr Luvuyo Mayi continued with thepreparation of the large Rhachiochephalus skull which in now almost complete and he has also devoted much of his time to the preparation of two large Aulacepalodon skulls. In Late November �009 it was arranged that Mr. Mayi be sent to the University of the Witwatersrand (BPI Unit) for �� days to be taught the fine art of making fossil moulds as replicas. This specialist training he did under the tutorship of Mr. Charlton Dube (see picture). Dr Prevec continued with the processing of the large collection of plant fossils collected from both the KwaZulu Natal and the Permian/Triassic site near Nieu Bethesda.

During mid �009 an audit of all Natural Science collections in all SA museums was initiated by the DST/NRF and inNovember’09 the Bird Study collection was evaluated while the palaeontology collection was done in mid February’�0 by Prof Michael Raath of the NRF auditing team. His visited the Department for a full two days to complete thecomprehensive questionnaire on the status of thePalaeontology Collection at the Albany Museum. Follow up questions were dealt with via email over the next two weeks. A final report is expected in the �nd half of �0�0.

Dr De Klerk continued his collaborative biostratigraphic work with Prof Bruce Rubidge at the University of theWitwatersrand and two conference contributions were submitted (see below). Systematic fossil collecting continued in the basal Beauford Group rocks I the western part of the Karoo basin which included a recent field trip to Merweville near Beaufort West (see photo). In addition research on the two Heterodontosaurus dinosaur fossils is progressing well. This work is being done in collaboration with Prof Cathy Forster of The George Washington University in Washington DC, US.

Three major dinosaur projects are ongoing. They include (�) the description of a new form of basal iguanodontian dino-saur based on the fossil bones of at least �� baby

��

hatchlings that were recovered near the village of Kirkwood. This work is being done in collaboration with Prof Cathy Forster in Washington. (�) Production of an in-depth review of the taxonomy of the small dinosaur Nqwebasaurus (Kirky). The work is being done in collaboration with Dr JonahChoiniere and Prof Cathy Forster of Washington, US. (�)Research on a review of all know sauropod dinosaurfossils the have been recovered from the KirkwoodFormation. Excavation of the final fossils in this study will be undertaken in late �0�0.

During the year the curator received a number of requests for information of SA fossils and identification of fossil and mineral specimens. Of particular note was theidentification of rock and mineral specimens in the form of polished eggs brought in by Mr Ted & Mrs Rem Gilfillan of Port Alfred. Additional fossil report from farmers in the Karoo north of Cradock will be visited later in �0�0 for evaluation.

As in previous years the curator presented the annual �nd year BSc Geology module in Palaeontology at RhodesUniversity in March’�0. This included �0x lectures and �x practicals. The final practical exam was set and will bewritten in mid April and the final theory exam written in mid June.

In addition the curator presented ad hoc lectures to various educational groups throughout the year, these included lectures to the students of the Ulovane Game Ranger School based at the Amakhala Game Reserve (�� learners); a lecture to the Probus Club (senior citizens) of GTN on the discovery of a rare dinosaur in SA; helped a Canadian historyresearcher with information relating to a medical DrThompson who had lived in Bizana (Transkei) in the early part of the �0th Century. He had collected a number of marine fossils from the Cretaceous Umzamba beds near Port Edward.

“Kitching Fossil Exploration Centre” at Nieu Bethesda. This edutourism and outreach project is still operational butduring these recessionary times the project is barelybreaking even and a number of belt tightening measures have been implemented. Visitor numbers have been greatly reduced and this has effectively reduced income.

Throughout the duration of SciFest, Mr Luvuyo Mayidemonstrated fossil preparation techniques to the general public and the many learners that visited the Museum. He was also available to explain what the study ofpalaeontology was all about and he fielded a myriad of questions from the inquiring learners. The curator

introduced the keynote speaker and Chairperson of the SciFest Advisory Board, Prof Anusuya Chinsamy-Turan form UCT, at her talk “Things that Fly”.

As a member of the permits committee of the SA Heritage Resources Agency, the curator spent some time onevaluating permit applications. These are regularly emailed from the SAHRA head office in Cape Town.

The Bird Study Collection was used for teaching and research purposes by Profs Adrian Craig and Pat Hulley at RhodesUniversity. Prof Adrian Craig; Prof Pat Hulley continue to serve as honorary curators of the bird collection.

Subprogramme: Herbarium

Seven hundred and thirty eight individual visitors made use of the herbarium facilities during the year. In addition to these, � 00� learners from Grahamstown schools visited the herbarium in groups. Three thousand four hundred new specimens were mounted. Fifteen loans were requested from the herbarium. Two thousand specimens were received as gifts from other herbaria. Three thousand eight hundred specimens were databased and �� library books were catalogued. Mr Cimi presented a paper at the postgraduate colloquium in mathematics, science and technologyeducation research (SAARMSTE) at Rhodes UniversityEducation Department and Mr Dold co-presented a paper at the �th International Congress of Ethnobotany, in Argentina.

Prof Barker (RU Botany Department) has employed apart-time assistant, Mr Carl Cloete, to assist in the herbarium. We welcome Mr Cloete to the herbarium and thank Prof Barker for his generous support. We are also grateful toMuseum Volunteer, Ms Khululwa Gxekwa for her assistance in the herbarium during Ms Nkwinti absence.

The Herbarium received individual visitors from seven academic departments at Rhodes as well as researchers from the University of Fort Hare, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Wits University, University of South Africa, Fort Hare University, University of Alicante and University of Barcelona consulted the herbarium during the reporting period. Other herbarium users during the same period included the Van Staadens Wildflower Reserve (Nelson Mandela Metro Municipality), Working for Water, Department of Economic Development and Environmental Affairs (DEDEA), Coastal andEnvironmental Services (CES Grahamstown), Mr Blow(Traditional Healer, Grahamstown), African Centre forBiosafety, Wild Coast Museum (Port St Johns), Daily Dispatch,

National Herbarium, Centre for Social Development , Cory Library, South African National Biodiversity Institute and Freedom Park.

Post-doctoral students Ralph Clark (Rhodes University) and Mario Martinez-Azorin University of Alicante) continued with their research in the herbarium. In January Dr Crespo from University of Barcelona visited the herbarium for a week to collaborate with Dr Martinez-Azorin and Mr Dold. In March Dr John Rourke and Dr Ted Oliver visited the herbarium for two days to undertake an assessment of the state of the collection. SANBI researchers, Ronel and Arie Kloppers spent two days in the herbarium consulting the ferns and providing positive identifications for 9� specimens. Mr Dold assisted Cape Nature with identifications of a number ofconfiscated “muthi” plants for a court case in Knysna. Dold accompanied Colleen Hepburn (RU Entomology) to her study site to identify insect host plants and Dr Julie Coetzee (RU Entomology) to several dams to collect aquatic plants. Dold collected Pachystigma caffrum in East London for study by Dr Hester Steyn and her Belgian collaborators. Dold provided photographs for the Global Diversity Foundation website and provided specimen related information onAloes to the United Nations Environmental Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre. Dold visited theMcGregor Museum in Kimberley to consult the herbarium and the Duggan Cronin collection and attended a SANPAD funding proposal workshop in Phillipolis. Dold provided information on Pelargonium sidoides to TRAFFIC SouthAfrica and images of Cassipourea flanaganii for ARKiveMedia (http://www.arkive.org/cassipourea/cassipourea-flan-aganii/images.html). Dold provided photos of two species of Podalyria to Anna-Lise Vlok who is revising the genus.

2.3 MUSEUM PROGRAMME 3: PUBLIC PROGRAMS

Subprogramme: Education

Extended unpaid leave taken by M Lewis from � January to �nd June �009. In December of �009, Ms M Lewis decided to take early retirement. Ms C Lambley became herreplacement as HOD of Education.Extended sick leave taken by Ms B Sontshatsha October – December �008 – who sadly passed away in July �009. She will be dearly missed and we extend our condolences to her family. We are also saddened by the loss of our Maintenance HOD, Mr Lester Mitchel – who passed away suddenly in October �009. He was a good assistant and dear friend who shall be sorely missed.

The Grocott’s Then and Now Exhibition saw many learners visiting the museum in �009. The exhibition ran from May through to July and the Education Department, facilitated by Ms Nozipho Madinda, Mr Zongezile Matshoba and Ms Gxekwa Khululwa, ran an exciting Education program for the duration of the exhibition. Our figures for January through to July reflect the ongoing support we receive from learners and the Education Department is especially grateful for the kind assistance we receive from our staff, Rhodes lecturers and individuals from the community who take time out of their precious schedules to run our popular FOCUS WEEK programs. Alongside this, the Luthuli/Mandela Making Peace Exhibition has generated much interest amongst our local community. Ms Nomonde Sibawu and Ms Nozipho Madinda have been actively involved in its education program.

Ms Lewis, Ms Madinda and Mr Matshoba were actively involved in organizing the �� minutes for Mandela Day where clothing donations were distributed to four Farm Schools, in �009. �0�0 saw a two day workshop celebrating the day Mandela was set free from captivity. This ran from the �8th – �9th of February and involved Victoria Girls High and Nathanial Nyaluza as well as learners from Ntaba Maria. A Heritage Workshop was conducted by Makana Heritage Solutions and involved a two day workshop looking at the development of a youth center in Joza, with learners from Mary Waters High School.

As usual, the Education staff assisted with showing learners various sections of the Museum both in �009 and in �0�0. In addition to this, the Education Department has become more involved in developing Education Programs to assist the Exhibitions department.

�0�0 has seen the development of the EducationDepartment’s Special Program – which includes a monthly Bedtime Stories activity for learners at the museum onSaturday evenings. This Outreach Program has includedchildren from Eluxolweni Shelter. We have also decided toreturn to our Holiday Club towards the end of the year, which runs for two weeks during the December Holidays.

A new development that occurred in �0�0 was the splitting of the Education Department to accommodate the Mobile Museum Services as a separate department. The Education Department has embarked on a re-design and standardiza-tion of all lesson plans, which now includes lesson plans for the History Museum. A lesson plan for the General Tour has also been developed – of which all our visitors can book for. Talks are underway to develop the museum library into an Educational Resource Center – where learners can start utilizing the library and the internet for research projects in a manner that sees greater museum involvement with learner studies in heritage. The Education Department is also developing a careers booklet for FET learners in conjunction with developing workshops to assist FET learners and school leavers with museum career developments.

Subprogramme: Exhibitions

The exhibitions team strived to build on the last year’s achievements with more challenging projects. Other than the annual Festivals the department took on many new projects, also looking at old displays and ways ofreviving them. Some projects envisaged for the year had to be scrapped due to shortage of funding. This however left us with creative solutions to fill the galleries using our owncollections as inspiration with some interesting results.

The Exhibition department kicked off the year with aphotographic exhibition by Brent Meistre entitled Malaise. The show used images of the uncanny as metaphors to capture memories, testing the audience response to these images with a questionnaire as part of a research project at Rhodes Psychology Department. During the National Arts Festival we curated the Art Exhibition X� which looked at coupling and binaries in Art. The show included works from our local talent and complimented it with artworks from our collection. The show got some media exposure due to acontroversial work from a local artist removed from the show. To compliment the annual SHARC auction for HIV Aids orphans the Exhibitions Department curated a show entitled To those Lost… The show allowed viewers the opportunity to deal with loss of loved ones by creating a meditative

space using artefacts of mourning from our privatecollection juxtaposed with artworks from local artist alldealing with the theme in their artwork. The Museum was also proud to host the informative exhibition on the life of two of South Afirca’s great leaders, Nelson Mandela andAlbert Luthuli. This show was launched in Heritage month with a beautiful opening attended by a prestige list of guests. The accompanying educational program allowed scholars more insight into the lives and accomplishments of these two great individuals. Mark Hipper had a solo show in the Alumni gallery which focused mainly on his skilful drawings accompanied by some of his Lithographic prints. The Museum braved the controversial topic of racism with a show which delved into our own systems of classification and labelling with a show entitled De-classification. Itskilfully made use of the Museum’s own system of classifying objects and opened the doors to information which thepublic usually do not get to see. The History Foyer hosted its first post renovation show Feeling Blue, capturing the mystery of blue throughout the Museum’ Natural Science and History collections, leaving the viewer to ponder the presence of this much loved colour in different objects. The final exhibition for the year took a more playful stance, using colour as starting point the exhibition On Colour in conjunction with Rhode Fine Art Department, filled the newly painted Transformation gallery walls with a rainbow of artistic interpretations around the topic, all contributing to a “feel good” visit to the Museum.

The Exhibitions Department was proud to be asked to design and build a new gallery space for the Our Heritage Museum in Adelaide. The new gallery looks at Traditional healers and their role in society, focusing on healers from the area around Adelaide. The Exhibition department designed the information panels, display cases and installed thegallery in time for its festive opening in February. Very good feedback was received by those attending the opening.

The annual Grahamstown National Arts Festival took place over the week of the �-�� July �009. The Museum again was honoured to play host to world class exhibitions as part of the main Festival Art program. The Standard Bank Gallery and Grahamstown galleries hosted the Standard Bank Young Artist ��: Retrospective exhibition. A catalogue to celebrate this memorable event was launches on its opening attended by many art lovers. The Alumni Gallery proudly presented the much acclaimed travelling exhibition by Paul Emanuel entitled ‘Transitions’ , the foyer celebrated works by Eastern Cape artists and the Transformation gallery walls stoodwitness to X�, an exhibition curated by the AlbanyExhibitions Department. The Natural Science Museum again was fully booked for Fringe shows with all the galleries


�9


transformed for ��days of art viewing pleasure. Highlights of the Fringe hosted by the Albany Museum included Anton Brink’s Grey Matter in the Green gallery and Contemporary Shona Sculpture in the Provost Museum.

The annual Sasol Science Festival took over the streets and venues of Grahamstown during the week of the ��-�0th of March �0�0. The Museum gladly saw a bigger line up this year of Exhibitors in the Grahamstown and Alumnigalleries as venues where fully booked with nine exhibitions, and displays ranging from the Iziko Mobile Museum stand to Nanotechnology by SAASTA. The Natural science Museum hosted two exhibitions and seven workshops with daily programs in the Education classroom, Green Gallery, Palm court and Rennie Wing. Fort Selwyn playfully hosted the Micro- Rockets workshop by the French Embassy while The Observatory Museum observed in wonder as the AlbanyHistory department ran workshops on time andmeasurement in its rooms.

Museum displays are constantly checked to make sure the displays are presentable and clean. The Exhibitionsdepartment also renovated some spaces in the Museum complex which were in desperate need of a facelift. The History Museum’s foyer was given a complete makeover. The old reception desk was removed and the wood recycled into a more streamlined unit which now proudly receives visitors at its new location. The old Hesian display boards whereremoved and the walls repainted to give the exhibition space a fresh modern appeal. At the Natural ScienceMuseum the old Mobile Classroom was transformed,removing old shelves and painting the walls with a calm grey, allowing for formal ad informal meetings as the new Boardroom. The ablution on the first floor of the Natural Science Museum was also renovated and retiled making the space clean and presentable. The Transformation gallery was next in line receiving a new layer of paint to revive the space as one of Grahamstown’s most modern exhibition venues.

The Museum continues to let out venues for privatefunctions, Fort Selwyn being most popular. The Fort was used for seven private functions, the Rennie wing beingutilized for weekly Yoga classes as well as different work-shops. The Provost Prison was rented out on a contract for a year after a decision made by the board of Trustees. The Natural Science and History buildings played host to the Rhodes Fine Art Final year Exhibition which was launched in November. The whole Museum complex was transformed into a spectacular event with a walkabout opening bringing many new visitors to the Museum.

Subprogramme: Technical Services

Last year November Mr. Lester Mitchell our Artisan Foreman, and Head of the Technical Service Department, passed away. I was given the position as Head of the Technical Services.

In the Technical Services Department I and two other staff members are doing Artisan Training at The Border Training Centre in East London. We hope that with all the training we are going to make a great impression in the Maintenance Department.

Last year in October we constructed a new pathway in front of the Albany Museum. We also constructed pathway and a ramp for disabled usage at the History Museum.

We also started this year tilling the staff toilets and thecorridor in the Albany Museum. The Technical Services with the Education Department is also donating wooden floor tiles to a Farm School.

We also assist the Exhibition Department with setting up new Exhibitions. During the Scifest Festival we also assist setting up venues.

Subprogramme: Library Services

The position of a librarian remains vacant.

Subprogramme: Communications andMarketing

The corporate identity of the museum was revamped.Branding became very important as our fleet and stationery were rebranded, and banners designed.

The rebranding also coincided with the Mandela Luthuli Making Peace Exhibition, jointly hosted with the Nelson Mandela Museum in Umthatha. Publicity of that event also became very important. The event was covered by our local print media, as well as SABC radio and two community radio stations, Grahamstown FM and Nkqubela FM in PortElizabeth.

The department, assisted Education is organising Mandela Day. Donations collected were handed to four farm schools.

The museum revived and hosted the ICOM’s International Museum Day in collaboration with the Department ofEducation under the theme, “Museums and Tourism”.

�0

The department continued to represent the museum in the Makana Tourism Management Committee, and the Scifest Africa Advisory Committee.

Reporting also became very crucial, as part of compliance, and for speeding the processing and allocation of the grant. Both the �00�/08 and �008/09 annual reports that were behind schedule, were completed and issued. The target is to release the �009/�0 in time.

Another museum webpage has been created: www.ru.ac.za/albanymuseum as well as a generic e-mail for general queries: [email protected]

Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever event orchanges in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairmentloss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverableamount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value inuse.
