Last week saw two days of volatile pro-tests,with roads only reopened to trafficon Thursday.

Following protests by Siqalo residents lastTuesday night, police closed Jakes GerwelDrive between Morgenster Road and theR300 as protesters barricaded the road withburning portable toilets, rubble and bricks.It is believed the group was protesting

about employment agreements.Protests subsided bymidnight, police con-

firm, and the roads were reopened.On Wednesday morning, a second group

of about 25 joined the protest, demanding alist of services from the City of Cape Town.Police and other law enforcement agencies

closed the road again. This caused majortraffic delays.With the second day having turned vola-

tile, Colonel Dennis Abels, Philippi policestation commander, and his managementcontacted all parties involved and visitedSiqalo informal settlement to address resi-dents’ issues.The protest was ended peacefully and no

arrests were made.It is believed the second group consisted

of opportunists, who sawa chance to vandal-ise property, as police confirm the firstgroup protested peacefully.The first group remained close to the R300

while the other group destroyed robots androad surfaces and dug up and burned robotcables.“The community has informed the City

that they are unhappy with one of the sub-contractors providing sanitation services inthe area. This follows a dispute between thecompany and its employees.“The City’s water and sanitation depart-

ment received these complaints [last Tues-day] and is currently interrogating the alle-gations. We will determine appropriate ac-tion once the investigation concludes,” saysErnest Sonnenberg, Mayco member for util-ity services.The investigation is still underway and

a meeting between City representatives andresidents will soon be held.“At this stage, we are still assessing the

damage. We can confirm that a City vehiclewas damaged by stone-throwing protestors.Therewas also somedamage to a traffic lightcontrol box. TheMetro Police gang and drug

task team recorded footage of the vandalismand we are hopeful that this will help trackdown theculprits.Wewill alsoneed toassessthe road surface for damage as a result ofburning tyres and debris,” says JP Smith,Mayco member for safety and security.Last year, the City spent millions repair-

ing robots along the road after another pro-test.“These damages force the City to spend

money on repairs thatwould otherwise havegone towards infrastructure development.These vandals are effectively stealing re-sources from the poor,” says Smith.Police will address policing issues in a

scheduledmeetingwith Siqalo residents lat-er this week.V Share your thoughts on the protest with us by emailing [email protected].

A diamond anniversary, but they still feelvery young.

This is the story of Rashad and FatimaHarrison, who celebrated their 60th wed-ding anniversary onFriday. The couple saysthey “didn’t feel the years”.“I couldn’t believe it when we said this

year we will be married 60 years. For me itstill feels likewe are only together 35 years,”chuckles Rashad.Their love story started in 1952 when Ra-

shad met Fatima at her family home.“I worked at a shipping company that was

based in Strand Street and would often popover to this one place for lunch. One daywhen I was there I met this lady who wasvery good looking. The lady in the shopmusthave seenmeand said: ‘Hey, don’t fall in lovewith this lady. She ismarried.’ This ladywasin fact Fatima’s eldest sister,” Rashad re-calls.Animatedly, he explains that Fatima’s sis-

ter then said: “I do have a sister.”“Her sister then invited me to their home.

This is where I met Fatima and I still feelthe way I felt that daywhen Imet her. I wentto visit her many times after that and even-tually a few weeks later I asked her parentsif I could be Fatima’s friend and theyagreed,” he says.Fatima recalls they courted for about a

year before they got engaged.“When he proposed I was 18 and we mar-

ried two years later. He was 23 when we gotmarried. Since we got married he has takencare, really good care, of me,” Fatima says.“Iwas just sitting earlier on, looking at the

time and thinkingwhat I was doing that spe-

cific time on my wedding day. I wore threedresses on that day,” says Fatima, who hasbeen a housewife since they married.The two lived in Strandfontein for about

30 years before settling in a quaint place“ideal for just the two of us” in Ottery.“My son did not want us to be on our own

and so far away from them and said weshould come live with them. Because we arevery independent I told him I did not wantto live with him and his family in one houseand so we had a cottage built at the back oftheir home and this is where we will spendthe rest of our days ... if theNewZealandbugdoesn’t bite,” Rashad laughs.Asked what their secret is to keep their

marriage going for so long, he says they “doeverything together”.“When we do things, we do it together.

When we travel, we always go together andthat has kept us going for so long. It is so sadto see couples who give up so easily on theirmarriages in today’s age. I believe our gener-ation is way different.”The two agree that they keep active lifes-

tyles as well “to keep us young”.“We often go out together and spend lots

of time doing things with our families. Ra-shad is, however, very active, because hestill swims and cycles in the area. I don’tthink he wants to know he is getting old,”laughs Fatima.The couple have three children, all of

whom are now also married.“I always make a point of praying for all

our children and grandchildren who havemarried,” Fatima says.The Harrisons have eight grandchildren

and 10 great-grandchildren. Their youngestgreat-grandchild was born on their anniver-sary on Friday.

Local teacher’s tech skillscelebrated countrywideGafieza Ismail, anEnglish teacher at Spine

Road High School, who won the nationalteaching award for Excellence in Technolo-gy-enhancedTeachingandLearning,was re-cently honoured by Debbie Schäfer, provin-cial education minister.The Department of Basic Education pre-

sented the 16th national teaching awards inGauteng on Saturday.Schäfer says: “We are delighted at Ismail’s

success. She provides an outstanding exam-ple of a teacher who is dedicated to ensuringthat her learners realise their potential.“She provides an excellent example of a

forward-looking teacher who understandsthe potential of using technology to enhanceand support teaching and learning and shehas demonstrated powerfully the importantrole that teachers have to play in the livesof youngpeople, and the role that technologycan play in supporting their education.“We also congratulate Spine Road High

School for providing leadership in this field,by allowing Ismail the freedom to experi-ment and develop best practice.”Schäfer says the provincial government

views e-learning as a game changer, and istherefore investing heavily in providing ac-cess to e-learning across the province.“We will learn from Ismail’s example as

we expand access to the future of educationin this way. TheWestern Cape education de-partment nominated Ismail for the nationalteaching award after she won the top teach-ing award in this category in the WesternCape last year,” she says.

CitationIsmail’s citation for the Western Cape

award reads as follows:“This young, very energetic and extreme-

ly dedicated English subject teacher, witheight years of experience in teaching, hasembraced the use of information communi-cation technology (ICT) in the enhancementof teaching in its totality.“With only four years of teaching English

to Grades 11 and 12 learners at Spine RoadHigh School behind her, she has trans-formed her approach to teaching the subjectandhas incorporated ICT inall aspects of thecurriculum.“She is currently the head of administra-

tion at the school and the ICT coordinatorand also provides training on e-learning atthe school and in the district. She has con-ducted workshops on ICT for the district of-fice and has also conducted workshops forthe Progressive Principals Association fo-cusing on the application of ICT in the class-room.“In her classroom, the ‘Apple room’, Is-

mail uses the 25 Apple laptops and a Smart-board assigned to her to teach learners re-search skills and also to make electronic re-sources available to them.

“Learners have been taught the skills touse creative software and to structure docu-ments and presentations. She introducedlearners to software that aids their studyingand note taking.“She also initiated peer-tutoring pro-

grammes for her subject where strongerlearners assist the weaker ones. She makesextensive use of video technology to teach inclass and uses technology as part of revisionand assessment.“Her use of e-resources and a technology-

enhanced approach to the teaching of En-glishhasbrought rich rewards toherand theschool. In 2013 the school received the awardfor theMost Improved in EnglishHomeLan-guage and in 2014 the school received thehighest average in English Home Languagein Mitchell’s Plain and attained the first100% pass rate in Grade 12 in Mitchell’sPlain.“She currently has two teaching blogs,

projecting her professional and creative de-velopment and allowing for greater expo-sure for the school and education. The blogsalso allow learners to access educational andschool content in her absence. Learners aretherefore never left behind. She also has anInstagram account with her register class.“An excellent innovation is the audio re-

cording of her lessons for her Grade 12learners. This allows learners to play backthe lesson and do an analysis of what wastaught. She also provides information onflash disks which allows learners to go backon previous aspects of the subject.“Colours play a major role in the develop-

ment of learning materials. In that wayslower learners are assisted. This ties inwithherphilosophyof theholistic develop-ment of the child by incorporating all thesenses of learning. She creates her ownelectronic resources for her subject.“The resources are individualised and

structured for the specific use of teaching.She shares these resources with the teach-ers in the subject department and in doingso, becomes the champion of the integratedapproach to teaching and learning, espe-cially focusing on the integration of tech-nology.“Outside the classroom, she started a

motivational club, called Ins.P.I.R.E. (In-side people is real education). Through theclub, she equips learners with the skills toarticulate their emotions through the artof poetry and song.“She also started a blog for learners

where they post their own poetry. Thisblog has become a platform for expressionand communication.“She always encourages her learners to

expect the best from themselves in spite ofthe many negative socio-economic condi-tions that they are faced with daily.“She is an inspirational role model to

teachers, learners, parents and the com-munity. She is a pioneer of the digital class-room at her school and her district; shestrives to ensure the equitable roll-out oftechnology whilst supporting and equip-ping educators with the skills to use tech-nology effectively. Ismail is aworthy recip-ient of this award.”

Animals’ heroesin exhibitionNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Behind the banner of the Animal Anti-cruelty League (AACL) is a group of in-

dividuals working tirelessly to care for andfind homes for abandoned animals.These “everyday heroes” have been cap-

tured by local photographer Frank Pople.His workwill be on display in an exhibitionin aid of the AACL.Pople’s relationship with the AACL start-

ed when he found a puppy inside a plasticbagwhile running.He approached the orga-nisation for help. When he saw its work, hewas inspired to take some portraits of thepeople working with the animals.“Seeing those animals in cages waiting to

be adopted, like orphans, mademe so sad,”he says.Mpho Hlalele, AACL’s assistant general

manager, says: “He gave us some gorgeousimages and we realised that we couldn’tjust have them and do nothing with them.So began the idea, a year later, to find aspace somewhere and share the photoswith the public, creating this fundraiser.”The exhibition will allow the public to

meet each person that has a role in animalwelfare – highlighting ordinary people tak-ing on extraordinary tasks, Hlalele says.Everyone from the receptionist to thecleaner and veterinarian is featured.“The photos play a part in admiring the

heroes responsible for saving thousands ofsentient beings annually – from the ladywith a warm smile who washes hundredsof blankets, to the knowledgeable handsthat save lives with a scalpel blade. Our he-roes bestow compassion on thosewho needit the most – the voiceless victims of oursociety,” she says.Theportraits also serve as away to thank

staff for their contribution, Hlalele says.“Welfare workers are often undervalued

and unappreciated, often blamed by societyfor humanity’s mistakes. It is a thanklessand heartbreaking undertaking. Our he-roes do not bask in the glory of admiration;rather their tasks are carried outwith pain-ful decisions and many tears. They have toendure much suffering to be able to savelives and they have to continue this never-ending battle for good to prevail. So in doingthis, we just want to recognise that everyperson who makes a contribution to makea difference, is a hero,” she says.V The fundraising exhibition will take place at 6 SpinStreet Restaurant in Cape Town on Friday at 19:00.Entry is a donation of R50. All proceeds will go tothe AACL.

CAPE TOWN CARNIVAL

Whatever floats your boat hereGARY VAN DYK

@gvdcapejazz

Visiting the Maitland workshopwhere the floats and parapher-

nalia are being made for the CapeTown Carnival is an exciting expe-rience.

At first glance it seems as ifyou’ve walked onto the set of somefuturistic science-fiction film withgrinders setting off sparks in all di-

rections from, at times, garish cre-ations. Hammering rings throughthe air from all corners of the prop-erty. And then you realise that thisis where the festival is really“made”.

On Saturday 12 March the publicwill experience the glamorous andglittering parade on the Fan Walkin Green Point, but last week themedia got to see the more seriousside of how it all gets put together

at a workshop in Maitland.

Fun workShaam Stringer is a fabric artist

from Ocean View who has beenpart of the festival for six years.

In front of him streamers arestarting to form a fantastic flower(or is it a face?) amid an array ofwires. He assures me it will allmake sense on the day.

“It’s been a wonderful experi-

ence for me,” he says. “I got in-volved through a friend and now itis an important part of my life.

“When I watch the parade andhear how people cheer for what Iam part of creating – that makesme the proudest. And of course it’sso much fun!”

The carnival also attracts atten-tion from overseas, with, for in-stance, carnival artist YasminLong from the United Kingdom

adding touches.She is an intern from Brouhaha

International in Liverpool whereshe is studying various aspects ofcarnival production.

“This has been an exciting timefor me to experience how peopleare excited about the event and allthe communities that are involved.

“I can’t wait to experience theevent when it takes place on 12March.”

Yasmin Long from Liverpool in the UK is living in Muizenberg while workingas an intern for the Cape Town Carnival. “I can’t wait to experience theevent when it takes place on 12 March,” she says.

Health officials are reminding resi-dents to look after their eyes aheadof World Glaucoma Week, ob-served worldwide from 8 to 14March.

Glaucoma is a group of eye dis-eases that cause progressive dam-age of the optic nerve.

If left untreated, most types ofglaucoma get worse – withoutwarning or obvious symptoms –gradually doing damage to eye-sight, which may lead to blindness.

The visual damage is mostly ir-reversible, and this has led to glau-coma being described as the“blinding disease” or “the sneakthief of sight”. Glaucoma is the sec-ond most common cause of blind-ness worldwide.

There are several types of glau-coma.

Some may occur as a complica-tion of other visual disorders, butthe vast majority are categorisedas primary instances, meaningthey occur without a known cause.

It was once believed that thecause of most or all glaucomas washigh pressure within the eye.These days such pressure is con-sidered a “risk factor” for glauco-ma, together with other factorssuch as racial ancestry, family his-tory, high myopia and age.

In most cases glaucoma appearsequally among men and womenafter the age of 40.

There is no cure for glaucoma asyet, and vision loss is irreversible.

However, medication or surgery(traditional or laser) can halt orslow down any further vision loss.Therefore, early detection is essen-tial to limiting visual impairmentand preventing the progression to-wards visual handicap or blind-ness. Eyecare professionals can de-tect glaucoma.V For more information visitwww.sags.com or the World Health Organisation on www.who.int/blindness/causes/priority/en. For free testing during WorldGlaucoma Week call 021 426 2200.

Look after your eyes

The provincial governmentplans to develop the 22-hectaresite of the former Conradie Hos-pital in Pinelands into a newneighbourhood of mostly resi-dential flats.

At a joint media conference be-tween Donald Grant, provincialMinister of Transport and PublicWorks, and Bonginkosi Madikiz-ela, provincial Minister of Hu-man Settlements, a proposal waspresented of more than 3000 resi-dential units, as well as businesspremises, schools and green pub-lic spaces to be constructed onthis site.

The plan is to break ground by2018.

“Currently, there is a shortageof well-located, affordable housesclose to employment and eco-nomic opportunities in the city,”the ministers say in a statement.

They promise the multibillionrand development will create af-fordable, integrated housingclose to the Cape Town CBD.

The development will include:. A high-density, high-rise de-velopment of mostly residentialunits. Space for shops and other busi-nesses. Parks and other recreationalspaces. New schools. Government services beingbrought closer to residents

Out of the more than 3000 resi-dential units built, half must beallocated to grant-funded hous-ing. The other half will be sold onthe open market.

“As we know, there are thou-sands of people living in the prov-ince who earn too much to re-ceive a free house but who do not

qualify for a bond to buy one. Webelieve this development willmake a major contribution to-wards providing this group ofpeople a meaningful housing op-portunity and will help reducethe current housing backlog. Wehave also focused on addressingthe potential increased trafficcongestion.

“There is also a growing needin the metro for decentralisedcentres of business, as with theincrease in office accommoda-tion in the southern suburbs ofClaremont, Rondebosch, andNewlands. People are increas-ingly looking to work outside ofthe CBD to avoid traffic conges-tion and travel times in and outof the city during peak times.”

The development will offer10 000m² of retail space and14 500m² of business space.

Small launch forbig soundsLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

They say dynamite comes in small packa-ges and Leelia Jay is proving just that.The pint-sized singer will be launchinghermusic video for her track “Whind it low”at Club Galaxy in Rylands next week.This isn’t her first foray into the local hip-hop scene.Like many artists, Leelia grew up sur-rounded by music. Her father used to prac-tise with his band in their lounge when shewas four.“He even bought this little keyboard andput stickers on so I can know what’s what.”She discovered her voice in high school,at Windsor High School, which is where shemet her best friend “to this day”, Ilse Davis.The two started a girl group called Illusionand performed popular covers at carnivalsand events all over Cape Town throughouttheir high school career.After school, Leelia initially tried to keep

away from the music industry, pursuingstudies in Hotel Management instead. Butthe people she met in the hospitality indus-try steered her back to her first love.Leelia started her music career workingwith the late legendaryMischief in 2009. Shemet the rapper through a friendwhile study-ing atCapeAudioCollege, andonceheheardher “stuff”, Mischief invited her to join hiscrew the Hunchmen.“That’s kind of where I started to come in-to this whole hip-hop game; I guess I justcaught a bit of that fever.“Mischief basically taught me how towrite and come into my own style and flowof things,” Leelia continues.Fast forward a few years and she’s almostdone recording her – still untitled – debutalbum, which she plans to release in April.The album contains everything from RnBand dance tracks to proper hip-hop and evena ballad.“I want everybody to have a favourite onthe album.”“Whind it low” is the first single off thealbum. Leelia released it late last year andit’s already been playlisted on stations likeBush Radio.Leelia describes her sound as “a bit of aRihanna vibe”. While she does also rap,there’s a little more singing in her music.“If you listen tomy single: there’s rapping,but I’m singing it.”Her video launch on Friday 11 March willgive hip-hop fans a chance to see the musicvideo for the single before it airs on televi-sion channels like Tracer and Channel O.This won’t be Leelia’s first time on TV ei-ther; a few weeks ago she was featured onCape Town TV’s Ek Sê. She has a lot of radiointerviews behind her name.Leelia choreographed her music videoherself and hopes to introduce her newdance with the help of her new dance crewthe Dance Dolls.“I hope a lot of people are going to bewind-ing with me.”The Dance Dolls will be joining Leelia onstage at the video launch,where fanswill geta taste of her upcoming album.The audiencecan also look forward to performances bySomethingfromthemotherland, Abadwang-uzeli the Natives and Amper Alien.Tickets cost R40 each at the door with pre-sold VIP tickets, which include platters anddrinks on arrival, available at R100.V Email [email protected] or call or Whatapp079 062 9666 for bookings or more information.

There is help for your tax woesSAMANTHA LEE

There is an organisation de-signed to help youwith your tax

woes, and the service is free ofcharge.The office of the Tax Ombuds-

man is an independent body estab-lished in 2013. Its CEO recently vi-sitedMitchell’s Plain to informres-idents of its services.Advocate Eric Mkhawane says

the office has been a long time com-ing. “The office was initiated in1995. After 1994 there was a tax re-form and it was found that thereneeded to be a tax structure to pro-tect the taxpayers’ rights andmedi-ate between the revenue serviceand the taxpayer,” he explains.The office was, however, only

put intomotionwith the passing ofthe Tax Act in 2011, which madeprovision for the body.“Weneeded towait for [theSouth

African Revenue Service (Sars)] tobe ready, andwhen their processeswere ready, we were waiting forthe next thing. It was put togetherin 2012 and became operational in2013,” he tells People’s Post.Mkhawane visited Mitchell’s

Plain last Wednesday.He says: “People must know

about us and our services. If peoplehad issues with the revenue ser-vice before the office, they wouldneed to go to court. We also wantpeople to know how to complainand what we can and can’t do.”About 20 people attended the

workshop hosted by ENSafrica.“The office of the Tax Ombuds-

man is an important institutionthat contributes to assisting tax-

payers. ENSafrica, as part of ourpro bono programme, felt it impor-tant to ensure that communitieswere informed of the services ofthe office of the Tax Ombudsman,and thus we coordinated the infor-mation session, which was pre-sented by the CEO of the Tax Om-budsman. The session impartedvaluable information to the partic-ipants, who found it to be of im-mense value,” says Natasha Wagi-et of ENSafrica.

Specific circumstancesMkhawane explains there are

specific circumstances that allowhis office to step in to help taxpay-ers.The law states problems before

2012 cannot be dealt with by his of-fice, butMkhawane says they haverequested permission to allowsuch issuesto be dealtwith by hisoffice.There is no

representa-tive of the or-ganisation inCape Townyet, butMkhawanesays technol-ogy allows them to help taxpayerscountrywide. “In the new financialyear we are looking to extend ourfootprint. It is a process we areworking toward,” saysMkhawane.He explains the organisation is

governed by the law and com-plaints first need to be directed toSars before he is able to help – ex-cept in compelling circumstancesthat cause undue hardship for a

taxpayer.He adds the most popular cases

he deals with relate to refunds, butthe cases vary and are categorised.“We can make recommenda-

tions, but Sars does not need to im-plement it. But if they do not, wereport directly to the minister andhe would then ask why it was notimplemented,” he says.“We aim to have issues resolved

within 15 working days, but thatwould depend on Sars.”Mkhawane says after receiving a

complaint they do an investigationby accessing the Sars records andthen contact the complaining tax-payer if they are able to help.“We have a good working rela-

tionship with Sars but there aresome teething problems. People al-so are afraid to complain to us be-cause they feel they will be victi-

mised. If thathappens wewill deal withit,” he says.The Tax

Ombuds-man’s ser-vice is notwithout itslimitations.The office

cannot makeexceptions to the law or help inmatters already before the court.Sars still remains the first point

of call, and in the event they arenothelping a taxpayer, the Tax Om-budsmanwill be able to helpwherepossible.V For more information on the office of theTax Ombudsman visit www.taxombud.gov.za. With complaints call their tollfree line on 0800 662 837.

People are afraidto complain tous because theyfeel they will bevictimised.

IN THE GARDEN

Grow yourown ediblesA water wise vegetable and herb gardenhas the benefits of saving youwater and be-ing a source of healthy nutrition.Nick Stodel, MD of Stodels Nurseries,

gives tips to keep your home greens in shipshape in this hot, dry season.

Water wise bedsKeep traditional square or rectangular

beds that channel the water to the plants.Making the beds slightly lower will help tocreate a pocket for thewater. But be carefulwhen walking on the soil between theplants – you don’t want it to become com-pact and decrease absorption and increaseevaporation.

Water saving granulesThese can save up to 50% on water usage

as well as give your plants a slow releasefeeding. Combine products such as Aqua-soil with the soil used for planting.

Shade netsYou can either cover your whole veggie

orherbgardenor thoseareaswhere the sunis a lot harsher. This reduces evaporationand allows faster absorption of water.Remember thorough, less frequent wa-

tering encourages the roots to grow deeper.In this way the plants can thrive duringtimes of drought or little watering.

MulchingMulching is one of the quickest, easiest

and most cost effective ways to conservewater in your garden. Mulch is any sub-stance placed on the soil surface, aroundplants, to keep moisture in the soil.The best sort, organic mulch, comes

mostly from plant sources. They breakdownwith the help of earthworms. You canuse compost, grass cuttings, pine needles,milled bark, straw, peat, crushed mealiecobs, autumn leaves and shredded paper.Inorganic mulch has materials that do

not break down but keep moisture in thesoil, like gravel, pebbles and stones.“Enjoy the ‘fruits’ of your labours and

keep those veggie and herb gardens thriv-ing during this hot and dry season,’ saysStodel. “There’s nothing nicer than eatinghomegrown food straight from the garden.”V For more tips visit www.waterrestrictions.co.za andwww.stodels.com.

LETTERS

UIF is a verylong call awayfrom paid[The letter writer has been trying todraw his UIF benefits.]Last Tuesday I tried calling the

labour department. Someone eventuallytook the call, after it rang for more thanten minutes. She answered and politelytransferred the call to another depart-ment. Another ten minutes later nobodybothered to take the call and then cutme off.Immediately I called back. Nobody,

but nobody, took the call.Maybe we can get the Athlone group

to show the Town Centre group how itis done. I have been there more thanthree times and still no help from them.They keep saying the paperwork is notin order.I have another date for tomorrow –

can’t wait to hear what’s going tohappen tomorrow.[He returned last Wednesday.]I’m fed up and they don’t realise that

we need to borrow money to come backall the time.I had an appointment to go sign again

for unemployment.I spent the entire day there only for

them to tell me that my documentshave not been captured on the systemyet.I eventually left at 13:00. I was there

from 07:00 in the morning.I’m not happy with the service here

and would like to know where I cansend my complaints to.

N MEYER,Mitchell’s Plain

Debt review not so easyI wish to comment on the editorialcomment “Ignoring debt will not make itgo away” (People’s Post, 16 February).I wish to advise that the article paints

a very easy and trouble-free future forpeople who are in debt, suggesting thatdebt review would ease their pain.This is not entirely the full story.I was on debt review for nearly seven

years and for most of that time it reallydid not matter as I was using my ownmoney to pay for things.The trouble started when I wanted to

get off the debt review as the companythat had applied for my restructuring hadsubsequently closed and my file washanded over to a new company.I was sent a letter by the new compa-

ny, but could not make sense of itimmediately.It was only later after months and

months of trying to locate the people thathad placed me under debt restructuring

that I found the letter from the othercompany that had taken over the ac-count.But they were of no service to me

because they were never paid to do so.I managed to acquire the self-exclusion

form which is required should you wishto opt out of debt review.The lesson to be learnt here was that

getting into debt review was easy, butgetting out was frustrating.Without the proper information re-

quired at hand, one could face one of themost miserable days as no creditor orbank can help you if your status report isdebt review, regardless of how yourfinancial situation has changed.Debt review is not the answer, but

learning to know how to work with yourown money and applying faith-basedprinciples will save you from hardship.

Mistreatment at UIF officesI agree with the letter writer in People’sPost (“Claiming UIF is ‘controlled cha-os’”, 16 February). I have been to theAthlone office thrice and the office isvery slow. Twice I went to one assistantand to another the other time. The firsttime I went was in October, but I am yet

to receive my maternity leave UIFmoney. I was not informed properly andhad to take my forms back to work threetimes. I hope I can get my payouts beforegoing back to work.

The first time she laid eyes on him, AlanaWitberg’s heart was ripped from her

chest.“He had the saddest eyes I had ever seen

on any animal,” she says about Snowy, thelittle Arctic fox that was rescued by theNSPCA from a petting zoo in Johannesburglast year and relocated to Butterfly WorldTropical Gardens outside Cape Town.Alana is the curator at the park.“When asked by the NSPCA if we could

accommodate him we said yes in a heart-beat.“He was in a terrible condition – over-

weight with overgrown nails and rottenteeth. It was clear that he had a tough life,”she says.The four-year-old male is a victim of the

illegal exotic pet trade in South Africa, andis believed to be one of 16 Arctic foxes re-corded in South Africa.Since he arrived in October last year, the

team at Butterfly World had gone the extramile to ensure that the remaining years ofSnowy’s life – another three to eight years– will be as comfortable as possible.“Arctic foxes originate from the arctic re-

gions of the Northern Hemisphere, and areadapted to living in very cold environ-ments.“The hottest summer days they experi-

ence in the ice tundras are 17° degrees,while they are quite comfortable at -50° de-grees during the long winters,” she says.

Now lives with female Cape foxIt is unimaginable to comprehend how

Snowy survived the hot African conditionsat the cramped petting zoo, where he waskept for years.“He was skittish and trusted nobody, and

very, very unhappy.”He was immediately set up in a tempera-

ture controlled environment at ButterflyWorld and Alana spent countless hourswith him to gain his trust.“In fact, we have cleared and refurnished

a two-bedroom flat with a bathroom all forSnowy’s use. Since it is very stressful for

him in the heat, he is kept indoors to remaincool,” she says.Here he especially loves lying on the cold

bathroom tiles and was joined by Leila, aplayful female Cape fox.“Hewas very lonely andwe brought Leila

in for companionship. Although she seemsto rule the roost with her dominant person-ality, the pair get on very well, and Snowyhappily submits,” says Alana and adds thatSnowy will soon be getting the “snip”.WithPeople’s Post’svisit lastweek the iro-

ny was not lost on us – an Arctic fox findingsolace and contentment in a tropical park.When Alana took him out of his cool en-

closure for one of two daily strolls, it wasclear that much had changed for this adora-ble little creature. He was in tip-top condi-tion, playful and curious with lively and in-quisitive little eyes.“He loves his strolls and needs the exer-

cise, but can’t stay outside in this climatefor too long. He starts panting very quicklyif it is too warm.”

AmbassadorSnowy is now an ambassador at the park

in their attempt to bring about awarenessregarding the exotic animals pet trade.“We hope that his story will make people

think twice before keeping an exotic pet.”If you would like to meet Snowy you can

go along to the park during his daily walks.On Saturdays and Sundays this is be-

tween 10:00 and 11:00 and again at 15:00 and16:00, depending on the temperature.“He will be walked on his harness by an

animal handler who is available to answeranyquestions andassistwith aphoto oppor-tunity.”V Call Butterfly World on 021 875 5628 for more information.

Hellenic Football Club have kept theirleague aspirations alive followingtheir 4-1 home victory against a lethar-

gic Grassy Park United side in a Safa West-ern Cape regional ABC Motsepe League en-counter at the UCT astroturf field on Satur-day.While Hellenic, affectionately known as

the “Greek Gods”, are on song in theirleague campaign, Theo Hempe’s GrassyPark United are now singing the blues.United, togetherwith Ikapa Sportingwere

the only teams in the top five to suffer de-feats.Sporting fell to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of

Steenberg United.The two teams now sit on 34 and 33 points

from 19 matches and, with the gap wideningbetween them and the top, their chances ofclaiming a stake of the league trophy is slim.Glendene United, the defending league

champions, fought a tough battle to beat RCAthletico 1-0 in Kensington on Friday afterbeing kept to a 1-1 draw by United in a mid-week fixture.Glendene United maintain their position

at the top of the league standings.Glendene United have 42 points after 20

matches and Hellenic are second with 41points after 19 matches.Third-place Steenberg United, on 37

points, have played 18 games and simply

cannot be ruled out from the league race.The results confirm that all three front

runners are very much in with a chance ofwearing the league crown. It would give thechampions an opportunity to strike it big atthe promotion national play-offs for a berthin the national first division competition.NeverthelessHempe’s United sidewas un-

able to continue its good form. Team mem-bers appeared to have tired legs and as a re-sult, never really got into gear.Nevertheless, the Greek Gods never

looked in danger against the Southern Sub-urbs visitors. They held a 1-0 lead for the bet-ter part of the first half thanks to SlovoMra-wa’s goal. Waseem George made no mistaketo level matters for United.After the start of the match in the second

half, the Greek Gods found the back of thenet three more times and made full use oftheir chances in goals by Fabian “Tucker”Wareley,Mickyle JacksonandThandoBooi.The team was without its top marksman Al-fonso Fraser, who is serving a three-matchsuspension.V Full results from the ABC Motsepe League: GlendeneUnited 1, RC Athletico 0; Steenberg United 2, IkapaSporting 0; Milano United 2, The Magic 2; Barcelona1, Crystal Palace 0; Atlantic Nacional 2, Mitchell’s PlainUnited 1; Zizwe United 3, Black Cats 2; Hellenic 4,Grassy Park United 1; Ramblers 2, Atlantic Nacional 2;Ikapa Sporting 1, Zizwe United 0; RC Athletico 2, AjaxCape Town 1; Glendene United 1, Grassy ParkUnited 1.

Glenthorn A’s trounced VOB 10-3 in a CapeTown Softball Association Super Leaguematch on Saturday.Besides their outstanding fixture against

Westridge Yankees, they will meet Normieson Saturday and Falcons next Saturday tocomplete their 21 league matches.Should they emerge with maximum

points, nothing will prevent them fromclinching their fifth consecutive league title.With 49 points to their name, coach Andre

Alexander’s Falcons are second on the log –two points behind defending championsGlenthorn A’s. The A’s have played one few-er game.

Falcons taste revenge against YankeesIt was sweet revenge for Falcons as they

avenged their earlier defeat against West-ridge Yankees at Turfhall Stadium on Satur-day.The Falcons, down 2-3, scored two earned

runs in the final and bottom of the fifth in-ning to send Westridge Yankees packing toa 4-3 defeat.Earlier this season, the Mitchell’s Plain

side starved off a stiff challenge by Falconsand beat Falcons 5-0.Falcons started pitching with Natalie

Abrahams, who was on the mound for 4.1 ofan inning. She faced 24 batters and allowedfive hits, while relief pitcher Nicky Jones(0.2 of an inning) faced nine batters and sur-rendered no hits.Featuring among the five single hits for

Yankees were Megan Cable, Jackie Adonis,Charmelle Whiteboy, Glynis Koopman andNuraan Williams (each 1-3). They also per-formed well in the field, making only twofielding errors.Yankees pitcher Cable faced 22 batters in

her five innings. While she conceded onebase-on-ball and earned six fanned scalps,Cable surrendered only four hits to Saman-tha Jones (1-1), Bettina Philips (1-2), Aama-rah Larney and Abrahams (each 1-3).ThewinmarkedFalcons’ 16th in 19 games.

They have one drawn result and two losesto date.. Meanwhile, in the weekend’s other MajorLeague games St Martin’s sent Tantasportreeling to an 11-4 defeat. Kenfac Phillies re-corded a 16-10 win against a mediocre Nor-mies side.

Glenthorn A’s trounce VOB School soccer players to beregistered on Safa appJOSEPH PILLAY

An initiative by the South African Foot-ball Association (Safa) to register allschool soccer players on a digital plat-form, starting at youth level, could leadto a fruitful outcome on all fronts.The aim of the exercise is to communi-

cate with Safa more effectively and tocombat age and other forms of identitycheating in the sport.According to Safa, soccer players will

be issued with a digital identificationcard that can be validated pitch-side us-ing a free mobile app, which is currentlybeing developed.Dennis Mumble, Safa CEO, says he is

proud that Safa is the first national sport-ing body in South Africa to launch a digi-tal identification project for school-ageplayers.“This project will eventually wipe out

age cheating, a scourge on our beautiful

game. Many people still approach usabout age cheating, but because of lack ofproof, in most cases we are unable to doanything about it. With this new system,we are able to track a player from firstregistration,” says Mumble.“This project represents the first step

in Safa’s digital ambitions that includeregistering all Safa stakeholders, includ-ing players, referees and coaches by2018,” says Mumble.Likewise, the competition systems and

an amateur soccer results website will belaunched in 2017, which Danny Jordaan,Safa president, says forms part of Safa’sgreater, more longer term objectives.“These technology initiatives are an-

other important piece of Safa’s vision2022.How teams and federations use tech-nology separates the merely good fromthe great. These systems will be the foun-dation of our talent identification pipe-line for all our national sides,” he says.

A big star inwater polo is start-ing to shine brighter andbrighter.

Caitlin Siljeur is a 14-year-oldathlete from Retreat. From an ear-ly age she showed promise as asportsperson. As the youngest ofthree children in the house she of-ten competed with great determi-nation against her two older broth-ers while playing at home. She hasa natural drive that allows her todo well and be successful.At her primary school she had a

coach who recognised her raw tal-ent and developed the young star.At 11 and in Grade 5, Caitlin wonPlayer of the Tournament at theKnysna Open Water Tournamentin the u.13 section in 2012.Later the same year she was se-

lected for the WP u.13B water poloteam. She also represented her re-gional u.13 teams in hockey andsoftball in the same year.She says her favourite sport is

water polo.“I enjoywater polomore because

I find it comes more naturally tome than hockey. Also, a lot of myfriends play water polo with meand it makes it more enjoyable.”In 2013 she was selected for the

WPu.13Awater polo team. Shewasalso selected as a pitcher for theWP u.13 softball team and repre-sented her zone in hockey.

She was offered a sport scholar-ship at Reddam House in Constan-tia, where she is now in Grade 9.In 2014 she captained theWPwa-

ter polo team to a gold medal in Jo-hannesburg. She also played in theregional hockey team.Balancing training and academ-

ics takes dedication with earlymornings and few weekends off.

“I train for about five hours in aweek. I have early mornings onMondays and Wednesdays from06:00 to 07:00 and on Tuesdays andThursdays I have afternoon prac-tice from 17:00 to 18:00 and on Fri-days and Saturdays I have match-es,” she says.But she enjoys it a lot.“Sportmakesme feel really good

aboutmyself and it clearsmyhead.It doesn’tmatterwhat formof sportI play, but whenever I play I feelcomplete and in my right place.”Last year proved to be another

successful year for Caitlin. Shewas awarded WP colours in bothwater polo and hockey.And this year started on a high

note.

Her school team played in theShaun Fuchs u.15 water polo tour-nament in Johannesburg lastmonth against 19 other schools.Caitlin was awarded Player of theMatch on three occasions andnamed Best Attacking Player. Shewas also chosen for the tourna-ment team.She says that when she is not

playing sport, she enjoys running,hiking, surfing, stand-up paddlingand going on long walks.Next year Caitlin is eligible for

national colours and hopefully shewill follow in her older brotherDannon’s footsteps.“In Grade 12 I would like to rep-

resent my country at an interna-tional water polo tournament or atthe Commonwealth Games,” shesays.. You can also nominate yoursport star by sending an email [email protected].
