THIS year, Volkswagen GroupSouth Africa mobilised over 110volunteers from both their Uiten-hage and Sandton offices into ac-tion through the Volkswagen‘Great Show of Hands’ Pro-gramme.

The volunteers gave up fivehours of their weekend to helpcommunity developments, for thefirst time simultaneously, in boththe Eastern Cape and Gauteng re-gions.

The Volkswagen ‘Great Show ofHands’ Volunteer Programme,which was launched in 2011, is anemployee volunteer campaign thatwas established in response toVolkswagen’s employees requestfor the opportunity to play a hands-on role in the company’s annual

multimillion rand investment intodevelopment of local communities.

Since inception, there have beensix volunteer projects in the Nel-son Mandela Bay area which havefocused on areas of education,youth development, health andcommunity well-being.

The sixth project in the EasternCape, saw Volkswagen volunteershelp theLimekhayaHighSchool inKwaLanga, Uitenhage take thingsto the next level by donating theirtime and resources towards thecreation of the school and commu-nity resource centre.

“After more than a year of work-ing closely with this schoolthrough the Volkswagen Commu-nity Trust, we have been able to as-sess the school’s capacity andneeds in terms of Mathematics,Science and Computer learning,”said Nonkqubela Maliza, Director

of Corporate and Government Af-fairs at Volkswagen Group SA.

The research resulted in aVolkswagen Group South Africaand Volkswagen CommunityTrust joint funding solution to up-grade the school’s science labora-tory facilities and equipment, aswell as the creation of a multi-pur-pose resource centre.

In five hours, 70 volunteersachieved the task of renovatingand outfitting a 240m² centre withstudy stations, computer hub, li-brary infrastructure, adult read-ing corner, children’s edu-play ar-ea, as well as a 40-seater theatre foraudio visual content and films.

This volunteer project wasbased on the concept of Interna-tional Mandela Day which soughtto inspire individuals to take ac-tion and help change the world forthe better.

TEACHERS must remain fo-cused at the job at hand de-spite the challenges the coun-

try’s education is facing currently,said National Professional Teach-ers Organisation of South Africa(Naptosa) President Ezrah Ram-asehla.

Speaking to PE Express Indaba dur-ing the organisation’s Eastern CapeChapter’s 6th Annual Conference atthe Nelson Mandela MetropolitanUniversity’s Sports Centre in Sum-merstrand last week, Ramasehla ac-knowledged that theeducationdepart-ment was fraught with insurmounta-ble challenges.

“Our education is faced with sys-temic and political, or call it irration-

al, challenges which affect the class-room; but there is no need for us tokeep on talking about the problems.Thecountryneeds solutions,” saidRa-masehla emphatically.

According to Ramasehla, South Af-rica needs to invest in and equipteachers to deliver skills of the 21stCentury.

“And that is what Naptosa’s Insti-tute for Teacher Development is allabout,” he said, adding that teacherdevelopmentwill salvagetheproblem-atic situation the country’s educationfinds itself in.

Naptosa is currently running an in-service Caps Programme in the East-ern Cape, Western Cape, Gauteng andKwaZulu-Natal.This isverycritical tomaketeachersclassroomexperts, saidRamasehla.

Teachers, on theotherhand,neededa change of attitude, a different kind

of motivation and commitment, ac-cording to Naptosa president.

“It is also worthy to mention thatthe world is changing. Educationmustbegeared towardsmaking learn-ers smart - to be competitive in the glo-bal market,’ said Ramasehla, addingthatScandinaviancountriesaswellasSingapore, Malaysia and Japan wereleading in this aspect.

“This conference’s theme callsteachers tobe theagentsof changeandlight,” said Naptosa Eas-tern CapeChairperson Nkosiphendule Ntanta-la, adding that their aim is to strength-en the means of operation to encour-age teachers toaddvalue to education.

“Practically, the motions we put onthe table speak about the provision ofLearner/Teacher Support Materialand Naptosa’s roll-out of the Caps pro-gramme to solve the teaching prob-lems in the classroom,” said Ntantala.

Funni Galore is the comedy duo’slatest all-new package of laughterwhich pokes fun at the crazy charac-ters who inhabit our multi-cultural,multi-lingual melting pot that is ourSouth African society. The show guar-antees audiences that they will leavenone the wiser after seeing this pro-duction, save for a whole lot of chuck-les, one-liners and belly laughs galore.Some brand-new characters are intro-duced, whilst hilarious new chaptersare shared in the lives of old favour-ites.

Funni Galore is the fourth in the se-ries of shows co-written between Fab-bri and Centrestage owner Gary Hem-mings, following on from their previ-ous hits Toast, Gino Fabbri isCompletely Nuts and last years’ Toast-ed Nuts.

lowing on from winning the best ac-tress award for her critically ac-claimed role in “Fiela se Kind” lastyear and also having the distinction of

tankerous old Italian matriarch Non-na Pirata, who says exactly what is onher mind because she feels she has ab-solutely nothing to lose. Donna Africashows off her extraordinary transfor-mation from classy cabaret singer tothe Mitchells Plain inhabitant Bero-nyce – as she shares her difficulties oftrying to get maintenance from Virgil,along with the details of some of hisrun-ins with the law; although Virgilsees an entirely different side to pro-ceedings.

A member of Monarch Chess Club, Jonas re-vealedthatthey successfully launchedatownshipschools league lastweektogoparallelwith thedis-trict’s league. And he reckons that the interest is

high in both primary and high school learners.“For instance there were about 80 learners fromZwide, KwaZakhele and New Brighton schoolsthat attended the launch at Isaac Booi PrimarySchool in Zwide last week,” said Jonas.

Rattling off some of the schools already in-volved, Jonas mentioned Samuel Nongongo, Za-mukulungisa, Charles Duna, Soweto-On-Sea andIsaac Booi Primary Schools and among the highschools he mentioned Loyiso and Ndzondelelo,boths schools in Zwide township.

“League matches are played every Wednesdayand are rotating, said Jonas, adding that matchesare played at Soweto-On-Sea Primary School to-day (Wednesday 1 August) and will be played atCharles Duna Primary School in New Brighton,next week.

EXCITEMENT is growing among the bud-dingyoungentrepreneursat theEPChildandYouth Care Centre who are hard at work cre-ating products to sell at the Mzansi MagicMarket Day on September 1.

Travis Marshall, programme manager ofthe centre, said he thought it was a great op-portunity for the children to get involved inthe market day as part of their “Preparationfor Adulthood” programme that is run at thecentre. This is part of the Centre’s mission toreleasewell-adjusted, productive citizens intothe community through a series of pro-grammes preparing them for life in the adultworld.

The children took a few weeks to come upwith their business plans. Seven businessplans were submitted by 26 of the childrenranging from 10 to 13 years of age. Theyformed small groups of between three andfourmembers eachandhavecomeupwithanidea of what they want make and sell.

As the children did not have the requiredstart-up costs for their small businesses,Mzansti Magic agreed to provide the childrenwith R1 500 seed money, allowing them tostart production. They were then each givena budget for their group and told that thiswould be a loan. After the market day in Sep-tember they would need to pay back the loanbut can keep their profit.

Among the products will be hanging wood-

en crosses, crucifix pendants and brooches,beautiful decorative items for the young andold, including key rings, hand mirrors, an as-sortment of handmade greeting cards, everyday wooden objects that have transformed in-to majestic creations fit for royalty, beautifuljewellery boxes and earrings aimed at younggirls and teenagers.

The children were also fortunate enough toreceive the technical expertise and guidancefrom a long-time volunteer of the centre, Nel-marie Oosthuizen, from Peace of Art CraftShop in Walmer. She gave each group practi-cal guidance on how to create, present andmarket the products.

“It has been truly amazing to see theseyoung people develop over the past fewmonths. They have taken the initiative andbeen very busy putting the finishing toucheson their products and fine tuning their mar-keting strategy. It is important to note that al-though the child care workers and staff of theEP Child and Youth Care Centre have beenencouraging and guiding the children, all thework completed is their own,” said Marshall.

Mzansi Magic Market Day takes place attheWalmerParkShoppingCentreonSeptem-ber 1. About 500 children will be participatingand there will be 120 stalls.

Stall entries close this Saturday, August 18.For information contact Michelle Brown at0 041 581 6424.

PORT Elizabeth para-lympic swimmerKevin Paul, who holdsthe world record in100 metre breast-stroke, jets off on Fri-

day to participate in the LondonParalympics with high hopes of re-turning with at least one gold med-al.

Paul, who at the age of 17 won thegold medal in the 100 metre breast-stroke at the Beijing Paralympics in2008, has qualified for five events forthe London Paralympics.

A special farewell function will beheld for this former Grey High headprefect tonight at the Old Grey Club.

Being a sprint swimmer, Paul willparticipate in the 50 metre freestyle,100 metre freestyle, 400 metre free-style, 100 metre breast-stroke and the200 metre individual medley.

Paul,who turned21on30June,wasborn with no pectoral muscles in theleft side of his chest. His left arm isslightly shorter than his right and hehas adapted his stroke to swim pre-dominantly with his shoulder mus-cles. He swims in the S10 disabilitycategory for freestyle, backstrokeandbutterfly and the SB9 category forbreast-stroke.

Paul is one of the favourites in theSA Paralympics swimming team asthe defending champion in his fa-vourite 100 metre breast-stroke event

in which he also holds the worldrecord.

He has set his sights on making thefinals in his two freestyle events andretaining his breast-stroke title. “Inthe 100m breast-stroke, I really wanttodefendmygold fromBeijingbut thetop four in the world are all very closein that one. I’m ranked third in theworld in the 200m individual medley

where I came fourth in the WorldChamps in Holland in 2010 so hopeful-ly I can go one better this year andgrab a medal in that race,” said Paul.

Paul is the first toadmit thathewasan unknown in Beijing and thatthings will be very different this year.“I suppose you could say that I’m amarkedmannowbut itworks theoth-er way too. I know my opposition and

their tactics and I know exactly whatI’m going to be up against in London.My body aches from all the trainingwhen my head hits the pillow at nightbut I know its going to be worth it. Iwant to experience the thrill of win-ning the gold medal again becauseonce they hang that ribbon aroundyour neck no-one can take it awayfrom you.”

Paul, who is in year-two of his lawdegree at the Nelson Mandela Metro-politan University, trains twice perday in the pool and has a gym sessionbetween swims. He is coached bywell-known local swimming instruc-tor, Brian Elliot.

He has attended several trainingcamps overseas in the past months inpreparation for the Paralympics.

Apart from his successes in theswimming pool, Paul also has an im-pressive list of academic achieve-ments. He was head prefect at GreyHigh in 2009 where he also receivedfull academiccolours in2008and2009.

He achieved 11 A’s for his final ex-ams in 2009.

He is currently doing a LLB Lawdegree at the NMMU in Port Eliza-beth and is one of the top students inthe faculty.

He is the current Ambassador forthe Law Faculty and has been induct-ed into the “World Golden Key Coun-cil” for being one of the top 15% of lawstudents in over 300 universitiesaround the world.

Last year in April he was the TopAll Round Law student for first yearsat NMMU.

) Port Elizabeth also has a hopefulon the athletics field for a gold medalat the London Paralympics. MichaelLouwrens (52), an NMMU athlete andformer shot-put world record holderwill represent South Africa for thefourth time at the Paralympics.
