After eight burglaries in five weeks atWD Hendricks Primary School inFactreton parents, teachers and pupils

decided to protest on the school grounds.They warn that they want the police and thedepartment of education to act immediately,otherwise they will take the law into their

own hands.Yet another burglary at the school, this

time onThursday night last week, promptedthem to take a stand.Holding placards, the protesters chanted

last week that they had had enough. Theyfelt that the burglaries were out of controland something had to be done urgently.In the latest break-in the thieves gained

access to the principal’s office through the

roof. They stole a computer, printer andlaminator and left his office in chaos.In the past, burglars have also targeted

computers and printers which are used bythe teachers. The loss of the equipmentmakes it difficult for the teachers to conductlessons as their planned worked is stored onthe computers.Due to this mounting frustration and an-

ger, they protested inside the school last

week. The parents also marched to an al-leged suspect’s house, saying this was justa warning sign that they knew what he wasdoing and that he must stop. The parents al-lege that the suspect is a former pupil.They blame the police for dragging their

feet in arresting him. There are claims thathe started stealing alone and later recruitedthree others to help himwith the burglaries.V Continued on page 2.

Parents claim he has been caught stealingred-handed on several occasions. But whenthiswas reported to the police theywere toldto bring concrete evidence.One of the angry parents, Faia Salie (57),

says the situation is upsetting.“We can’t sit and do nothing. This is our

children’s education. If these burglaries con-tinue the school will close and our kids willstay at home. We report every burglary butthey say they want hard evidence. We tellthem we have seen him with our own eyesand he has been caught at the school. Whatmore do they need? This is the poorestschool and the principal is trying, but thereis so much that he can do. The police mustarrest the suspect.We are tired, wewant ourkids to learn properly without any fear or

disturbances,” says Salie.Another parent, Rose Daniels (50), also

claims the police have failed them.“If the police continue dragging their feet

we will end up taking the law into our ownhands because there is no justice for ourchildren.What will be left of the school if wecontinue to let such things happen?We havehad enough, this is our children’s future be-ing put on the line,” says Daniels.The school doesn’t have security and they

only get a guard during school holidays.Their wish is to have more than one guardand a dog throughout the year so that theschool is protected.School principal Graham Swartz says the

situation is frustrating.“These computers have really important

information for our children. Theworst partis that the computers are expensive, but thethieves break them open and sell the partsfor cheap; yetwe are suffering.We are losinga lot and we need to have beefed-up securitythroughout the year for the benefit of ourchildren. The problem is that our school hasbuildings facing each other, giving thethieves enough time to do whatever theywant because no-one sees them. Though wehave been to the police we are told to bringevidence. It’s so difficult for us. Classes can’tgo on like this; it’s affecting us a lot,” saysSwartz.Millicent Merton, spokesperson of the de-

partment of education, says the departmentwas not aware of the protest at the school.She says the department’s safe schools unit

has supported the school extensively, andcontinues to do so.“A security guard is being provided to the

school. Other arrangements are also beingmade to support the school further. We en-courage communities to take ownership ofschools and act as watchdogs. They need tobecome involved in caring for the school andreport any suspects to the police.“The police arrested a suspect in connec-

tion with the burglaries at WD HendricksPrimary School. His two accomplices arestill at large.“The department of education is investing

R28.5m in the safe schools programme in the2015/16 financial year, which will be used toprovide targeted security infrastructuresupport to schools,” says Merton.

Youth given hope for open doorsTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Valentino Fischer (18) fromKensington isone ofmanyyoungsters struggling to get

employment.Staying with his grandmother, who is a

pensioner, and 10 other family members,they all depend on one person who works.Besides being a dependent himself, he has

a one-year-old child who is looking up tohim for food and other things.Fischer dropped out of school in Grade 9

three years ago and since then his life hasnot been smooth sailing – not tomention thechallenges he is facing to get a job.Hiswish is to findwork andhelp his fami-

ly. Above all, he wants to be a father to hisson and provide for him.In his quest for a better life, he was one

of many jobseekers who came out onWednesday last week to hear about the op-portunities that await them if they manageto knock at the right doors.Acha Silver Lining with various stake-

holders, like Kenfac Ratepayers and Resi-dents’ Association, organised the informa-tive event at the Kensington civic centre forthose who are unemployed.More than 300 youngsters from Kensing-

ton, Factrecton, Maitland and Garden Vil-lage who attended were helped to add theirCVs to the City of Cape Town database toget on the waiting list for employment.The organisers hoped to show the oppor-

tunities that are out there. Those who at-tended the event were told about the City’sexpanded public works programme andNorthlink College told them about thecourses. They were also helped with basiccomputer skills.Mariam Oliver, secretary for Kenfac

Ratepayers’Association, says the eventwasmuch needed.“Most people just don’t know what to do.

They are sitting there at home so depressedand they don’t knowwhere to turn to. If youask them ‘What job do youwant to do?’ theyjust say anything as they want to work andget away from being so dependent. Theydon’t have a lot of information, that’s whywe decided to invite the people to help them

get jobs or at least put them in the right di-rection to make it easy for them to find jobsor for some to carry on with their studies.“Unemployment is such a crisis and we

don’t want those that are not employed tosit there and be stressed out, because thereare people that can help.“We have no doubt that the information

that was passed on to them will really un-lock a lot of opportunities for them, becausetheyareyoungpeoplewith a lot of potential.They just need to be steered in the right di-rection,” she says.Fischer is happy he attended the event.

“With the information that we have hereI’m hopeful that if I get out there I can getsomething to do. I want to help my family.Things are not easy, I have to work,” hesays.Another attendee, Nabeelah Cloete (17),

says she is happy that there is hope.“It shows there are peoplewho care about

us and they want to see us succeed. It’s nicethat we got people to tell us about the careeropportunities that we have and where to goto get help,” she says.Ronald Greenstyle, a skills developer,

says most of the people who attended didn’tknow about learnership programmes.“There are learnership and skills pro-

grammes. This was a good start for mostpeople. We had to help them, because mostpeople lack information, yet there are op-portunities awaiting them. They just haveto get out there andaccess them.Weare gladthat we could give them the right informa-tion,” he said at the event.

UCT makes spacefor bigger classesTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

The University of Cape Town is buildinga new lecture space that can accommo-

date 400 students in one auditorium.The highly anticipated state-of-the-art

building will help with the courses with alarge number of enrolled students. The con-struction of this new lecture theatre startedin November last year and is expected to becompleted by April next year.The lecture venue will be constructed on

the vacant site south of the HumanitiesGraduate School building.In keeping with the building’s aim to get

a four-star green rating, the demolition ofthe existing house there included the recy-cling and rehabilitation of what was demol-ished.Besides the venue supplying a new 400-

seater lecture theatre it will also be amuch-needed social space and a gateway to thesouthern end of the university campus.The venue will include outdoor and in-

door social spaces. It will also accommodatevideo recordingof lectures for remote learn-ing, video conferencing allowing four cam-eras, showing of full-length films froma sin-gle data projector and voice reinforcementfor presentersChris Briers, director of projects and cap-

ital works, properties and services, says thelecture venue, an auditorium, will an-nounce the corner of University Avenue.Not onlywill this new lecture theatre ben-

efit the students, it will be a bookable venuefor use by others.

It is expected that the venue will be fullyoperational by the start of the second semes-ter in July next year.This venue is additional to the pool of ve-

nues and does not replace any venue.“The constructionof itwas recommended

early in 2010 as an urgent need was identi-fied for a lecture venue to accommodatecourses with large enrolments, without theneed to split the courses,” added Briers.Though a lot of work needs to be done,

nothingwill affect the environment and nota lot of changes will be done.However, the trees that fall within the

footprint of the newbuildingwill be impact-ed. All yellowwood and wild olive trees willbe retained. Large exotic specimens, suchas London planes near the old South busstop, as well as the oak tree that resides onthe corner of University Avenue, will bekept.Thirteen new indigenous and exotic trees

will be planted. This proposed row of treesmight edge the southern boundary of thenew lecture building on Madiba Road.Nine trees that are on the alien invasive

list will be removed. Ninemore exotic treeswill be removed, including eucalyptus, avo-cado and cypress trees.One large indigenouswild peach tree will

be removed, as well as a large coral tree. Al-though the coral treemaybeviewedasvalu-able, it is too close to thewild peach tree andthe new building footprint. A specialist hassuggested that the tree has a wide branchstructure and its branches and roots are in-tertwinedwith other trees andwould there-fore not be successfully relocated.

A new state-of-the-art building on the UCT campus is on its way to provide a large space forlectures. The building should open in the second half of next year.

City hosts holiday programmes for kidsSolar system scavenger hunts, indoorsports and a myriad of recreational activi-tieswill keep thewinter blues away duringthe school holidays.Parents need not worry as the City’s li-

brary and information services depart-ment and the sport, recreation and ameni-ties (SRA) department will host a range ofactivities at many of the City’s communityfacilities in Woodstock, Maitland and sur-rounding suburbs during the winterschool holidays.Between the two departments, provision

has been made to ensure that pupils willhave more than 1000 holiday programmesto choose from. They will run daily fromMonday 29 June to Friday 17 July.The programmeswill be presented at the

City’s various libraries, community cen-tres, sports fields and parks.

Each of the four districts within the SRAdepartment will use the services of volun-teers to ensure that the programmes areimplemented effectively.“Our goal with these programmes is to

encourage children from communitiesthroughout the city to participate in sport,recreation and special events during theholiday period.“Our hope is that such participation and

enjoyment will be the catalyst for a long-term interest in physical and recreationalactivities,” says Belinda Walker, mayoralcommittee member for community servi-ces and special projects.Indoor programmes include board-

games, gymnastics, rope-skipping, karate,pool, poetry and drama, concerts, indige-nous games, cultural dances, fitness train-ing, talent shows and arts and crafts.

ZONNEBLOEM

Dirty plot in limboNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

A restitution land claim is holding up thedevelopment of a problem property in

Zonnebloem.The property, next to Trafalgar High

School, has been home to a group of streetpeople for some time. Litter and dumpinghave made the site an eyesore.

The vacant plot has been flagged as a dan-ger to the high school pupils after reportsof drug sales on the site, which house over30 street people.

School principal Nadeem Hendricks pre-viously told People’s Post that there havebeen street people living on the site foryears (“Site not on the curriculum”, 28April).

Cape Town Community Police Forumchairperson Nicola Jowell says the organi-sation receives “numerous and continu-ous” complaints about the informal settle-

ment. The plot is the source of much rub-bish and grime in the area, Jowell says.

Police intervention in the area has led tothe discovery of stolen property and arrestsof wanted suspects, Jowell says. “There arealso allegations that drugs are used as wellas sold from this space,” she says.

Edward Oosthuizen, who has been livingon the property for two years, says they donot disturb anyone. He says the residentsare not criminals.

Ward councillor Brett Herron says thepropertywas transferred to theCity of CapeTown,which planned to develop housing onthe site. But a land claim on the propertyhas now halted the City’s plans.

Vuyani Nkasayi, provincial spokesper-son of the department of rural developmentand land reform, confirms the land claim.

“The property forms part of the DistrictSix redevelopment. TheCity and provincialgovernment have agreed to release theproperty for redevelopment,” he says.

‘Green supergirl’ helps schoolTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Andrea von Gunten is not only a MissEarth semi-finalist but also believes that

her passion for the environment has grownstronger and stronger through the thingsshe does in her day-to-day life.The 24-year-old fromDurbanville recently

visited Observatory Junior Primary School,where she was part of a group who donateda truckload of plants to the school in a bidto make the school greener.Von Gunten teamed upwith the Botanical

Society and the Custodians of Rare and En-dangered Wildflowers to go to the school.

They were met by the Life Sciences teacher,also a member of the Botanical Society, andtwo representatives from theWildlife andEn-vironment Society of South Africa.“We were very impressed with the teach-

ers’ drive and dedication to greening theschool as they even have an active food gar-den,” Von Gunten says.“The produce is used by the school as well

as surrounding schools. Theyalsohavea tankto collect rain water, which is used for water-ing the school grounds, and a grey water sys-tem, recycling water from the bathrooms.“It was an inspiring day, to say the least.

But it doesn’t end there. As we take this newrelationship further, we will be revisiting the

school as they plan on developing a mini-wetland area as well as another garden inan open space on the grounds,” she says.Excited about the donation to the school

and participating in the Miss Earth pag-eant, Von Gunten believes everyone mustdo their bit to make sure that our environ-ment is looked after properly.“We all have a part to play in protecting

our earth. We only have one earth andtherefore there is no such thing as a secondchance.We need to act now and change ourhabits today so that we can protect ourbeautiful Mother Earth.“This is simple. It all comes down to choi-

ces. If we can start making choices with theenvironment in mind, that’s one less plasticbottle in the ocean, one less plastic bag to re-cycle, more solar-powered houses and, ofcourse, one less day of load shedding.“Our natural world is taking strain but if

we could change one action a day to makingbetter informed choices together, that be-comes a big difference,” she says.The Miss Earth South Africa programme

is a platform for younger women to show-case their passion and be rolemodels. Theprogramme focuses on developing youngwomen through the vehicle of environmen-tal education.

Detective fromMaitland nabsfraudster soughtall over CapeAMaitland detective hasworked tireless-

ly to make sure that a suspect who waswanted for various crimes invarious townsall over the Western Cape is now behindbars and serves his time in prison.Detective Sergeant Steven Pritchard

worked throughout his weekends to gatherevidence against the 42-year-old suspectafter a fraud case was opened at the Mait-land police station in July last year.Pritchard discovered that the suspect

was also wanted in Table View, Maitland,Sea Point, Baywater, Hermanus, Fransch-hoek and Cape Town for various otherfraud and theft cases. The case was then as-signed to Detective Sergeant Edward Ed-wardes.After the arrest of the suspect in October

last year the case was reassigned to Prit-chard who gathered all the cases from allthe different police stations.It was discovered through this that the

suspect was being sought by the Ronde-bosch police as well and that he had morecases lodged against him inTableView andCape Town, so all the cases were joined to-gether.The man also used different pseudonyms

to throw Pritchard off the scent, but the de-tective was always a step ahead.He also went through numerous bail ap-

plications with the suspect and his attor-neys, but each time it was unsuccessful.Early thismonth the suspect pleaded guiltyon four counts of fraud and four counts oftheft.He was sentenced on the same day and

received six months’ prison time for eachfraud charge and a year per theft charge.The sentence will run concurrently and aneffective sentence of eighteen months willbe served.

Is there nowhere sacred anymore?Churches, mosques, temples and graveyards were once

holy ground. They were places only the devout dared totread, and they were places that were treasured and re-vered.But no longer.Graveyards have become home to vagrants, with tomb-

stones torn apart to make a quick buck. They have be-come places to attack unsuspecting visitors to their fami-ly resting place.And places ofworship have not faredmuchbetter. They

are now kept locked and bolted, to prevent thieves takingoff with the few possessions within.Prayer times have been tarnished with the fear of petty

theft. The faithful dare not linger in case they aremuggedafter worship.And shockingly, last week in the United States, wor-

shippersweremurdered in a place thatwas once a sanctu-ary. So what is left for those seeking to be closer to theirGod, for those looking for fellowship and a sense of com-munity?You may not believe in the teachings of that church or

worship inside thatmosque, but these institutions are thepillars of our communities.These are the places that offer refuge to the lost, the

desperate and the abused. They are places that teach usright from wrong, tolerance and love, kindness and com-passion.Holiday programmes that keep our children off the

streets are often linked to these places of worship. Manyoffer skills development or life coaching.They are the places we go to celebrate weddings and

births and to mourn the passing of our loved ones.It should fall to each of us to preserve these holy places,

whether you are a believer or not, because to care forthem is to care for our communities.

Poo to you too,you’re inconsiderateI was totally shocked by the rudeness ofa dog owner on the Vlei late Sundayafternoon.I had walked across to the Vlei with

my two granddaughters to climb theirfavourite trees and said: “You can runon ahead.”“No,” said the 11-year-old, “One can’t

run and see to avoid the dog poo so youdon’t step in it.”Which was very true seeing how much

of it was lying around.Then we headed to the children’s park

area and there was a large man walkingwith his large dog a little way behindhim.The dog stopped and did an obviously

big poo, but the man just kept walking.I thought maybe he had not noticed so

caught up with him to tell him, so thathe could pick it up.He obviously did not have a packet

with him and he made it quite clear thathe did not intend to pick up any poothat his dog made.In fact he was so adamant and rude,

maintaining that he would not pick upanything his dog did, and didn’t I haveanything better to do than approach himon this matter.He told me to “get a life” and find

something better to occupy my timewith.I said children use this park and can

step in it. He commented heatedly thathis grandchildren had stepped in dogpoo and they were still alive and whatwas I on about?I said, then why bring his dog here to

the Vlei to do his business, why not doit in his own garden and let his owngrandchildren step in it rather thanmine?He said the trouble with picking up

dog poo was that the packets would clogup the system and it was natural to justleave dog poo around to rot and returnto the earth.And the same problem would occur

with him picking up dog poo in his owngarden.I guess he would rather leave it to rot

on the Vlei than in his own garden –faulty reasoning at best!And off he stalked in the direction of

the yacht club, muttering somethingabout walking on the Vlei for years.My eight-year-old granddaughter

remarked: “Well, Granny, I guess the dogdid do it near a tree, so maybe thechildren at the park won’t walk in it.”I have lived at the Vlei for 44 years

and dog owners never left their dogs’poo around like they do today.Where is the respect that we used to

have back then? It certainly was a betterworld.Maybe we need patrolling around who

can use their time profitably to monitorthis problem instead of harassing thelaw-abiding dog-walking public who pickup their dogs’ poo by saying “You maynot walk your dog off the lead else I willfine you”, which is absolutely ridiculouswhen there is not another soul on theVlei.I saw that happen one day to an older

couple, walking their little dogs, and sawthem being “harassed” by some officialtelling them to go to the beach pastSunrise to walk their dogs – a beachunprotected and where that very samecouple had been attacked before.Let’s get our act together and ensure

that the correct people are apprehended– the ones who are leaving their dog pooaround for unsuspecting children to stepinto.

JEANETTE AIREY,Sandvlei

True coloursshining thruVery soon we will once again hear agentle tap on the door, be greeted with awarm smile or be amazed at the suddengreeting of “Good day, Sir/Madam”.Our lamp posts will be draped in

different colours. We will hear the blareof loud music and dances parading ourstreets. The speeches so well preparedand memorised will be delivered in ourcommunity halls, streets and localpapers.Very soon the local election campaign

will start in all earnest.It always amazes me to hear the same

promises and after five years see so fewresults. It amazes me when even betterpromises are made this time round bythe same people, with even better andbigger promises. What is even moreamazing is the fact that we are bombard-ed with insignificant outcomes, insignifi-cant detailed reports and insignificantfuture plans.What tops all this is the fact that the

very people who do the canvassing (forfree or maybe a prospect of some “bene-fit”) are still where they were five yearsago. If they did move on, their progressis nothing to write home about.The voters who believed them are no

better off than a few years ago.So, during the past period of reign,

where were these “friendly faces”? Whathappened to the much applauded promis-es, the vision and mission statements, thelong-term goals and objectives? Was fiveyears not ample time to make it all cometrue? Where were those who wereentrusted to lead our communities? Arewe still in the desert or are we about toenter the Promised Land?So after all the hype and once again

same drills and fanfare . . . We just all goback to the township life.For another five years.It’s time to seek and vote for the true

leader. The one who stands for truth andrighteousness, the one who is guided bytrue principles, the one who does notseek own gain, but seeks the One inwhom we will all gain.

Reverendsharesbirthdaywith pupilsSASHIKA PILLAY

@Sashiipillay

As part of acknowledgingYouth Day, Rev June Major

celebrated her birthday withthe pupils of WDHendricks Pri-mary School in Factreton lastweek.The aim of the birthday party

was to focus on the pupils to re-mind them that there are peoplewho care about them.“There are childrenwho have

never had a party before, so thiswas for them,” says Major.Some of the activities and en-

tertainment that the pupils par-ticipated in at the party includ-ed dancing, singing, group ac-tivities and lunch with theirpeers.

Help where she canQuinton Langeveldt, chair-

person of the Acre Road Com-munity Safety Patrol, also as-sistedwith organising the partyfor the pupils.Langeveldt says that in Janu-

ary, he invitedMajor to the Fac-treton area and introduced herto WD Hendricks PrimarySchool.After visiting WD Hendricks

Primary School, June promisedto assist the school where shecan, in order to help make a dif-ference in the lives of the chil-dren.“We forget that children out

there go hungry and it shouldnot be that way. We wanted togive them hope, let them knowthat they are loved, and thatthey are special,” says Major.

Close to her heartMajor added thatwhen she vi-

sited the school a few monthsago, there was a Grade 1 pupilcrying. She asked him why hewas crying, and he told her thathe is crying because he is hun-gry.This incident inspired Major

to do more for the pupils at WDHendricks Primary School be-cause the pupils there are closeto her heart. It started with hersharing her birthday with thechildren.She wants the pupils to know

that just because they comefrom an area known for crimeand gangsterism it does notmean that they should get in-volved in gangsterism. She em-phasised that they should focuson their education because theyhave the ability to become any-one they want.

BurglariesTo ensure that the pupils

don’t go hungry all day they aregiven sandwiches. However,that is not enough for all thechildren. There are organisa-tions who donate bread twice aweek but there are more than300 children to feed.Major also expressed her con-

cerns about the ongoing burgla-ries at the school.“I am beyond livid that a com-

munity would steal from an in-stitution that will secure a bet-ter future for their children,”says Major.“I appeal to the community to

please take ownership of theschool. Education is the futureof our children. I appeal to thecommunity of Factreton andKensington to please keep aneye open, be vigilant and reportall break-ins,” she adds.

Heart-brokenMajor says that she is heart-

broken by the criminal activitywhich has is happening at theschool. She also wants to let thecommunity know that enoughis enough, they all need to unitefor the benefit of the school.If any organisationwould like

to donate bread, sandwiches, orstationery toWDHendricksPri-mary School, they can contactthe school on 021 593 1810.
