D

it blyk asof bejaardes in die Wes-Kaap

tansmagteloos staan teenmisdaadsin-

dikate wat hulle deur middel van Sas-

sa-debietkaartbedrog besteel.

Die sindikateword tans opdiehoogste re-

geringsvlak ondersoek en ons hoop dat daar

eersdaags arrestasies gemaak gaan word,

het dr.Waldie Terblanche, hoof van Sassa in

die Wes-Kaap, tydens n telefoniese onder-

houd aan TygerBurger ges.

Hy kon egter nie uitbrei oor die vordering

met die ondersoek nie.

Terblanche en n Sassa-afvaardiging het

sowat 300 bejaardes verlede Woensdag in

Kraaifontein by n openbare vergadering

toegespreek. Honderde bejaardes word glo

maandeliks besteel deur die gewetenlose

sindikate wat groot aftrekkings van hul

reeds karige pensioene maak.

Volgens Terblanche is meer as 200 sulke

aftrekkings sedert die begin van Februarie

vanjaar aangemeld. Ons weet nie presies

hoe hulle die bejaardes se inligting verkry

nie, maar vermoed dat hulle hulself voor-

doen as Sassa-werknemers en die bejaardes

skakelmet stroopstories omhul persoonlike

inligting te verkry, s Terblance.

Met di inligting verkry hulle dan toegang

tot die Sassa-debietkaarte. Terblanche ver-

duidelik dat die debietkaartfasiliteit die be-

jaarde die geleentheid gebied het om vooraf-

betaalde elektrisiteit en lugtyd te koop, wat

dan van hul kaarte afgetrek word.

Die sindikate koop sodoende derduisen-

de rande se elektrisiteit en lugtyd wat hulle

dan herverkoop, s Terblanche.

Baie van die bejaardes by die vergadering

het al deurgeloop. Volgens een vrou word

daar maandeliks sowat R250 van haar pen-

sioen van R1 400 afgetrek, glo vir lugtyd.

Die vermeende moordenaar wat die

tienervriendinne, NikitaHolly enKes-

hia Manuel, verlede jaar koelbloedig

doodgeskiet het, is Donderdagaand

deur die Kraaifontein-polisie in Bell-

ville aangekeer.

Hy het Vrydagoggend in die Kuilsri-

vier-landdroshof verskyn waar sy

borgaansoek uitgestel is na 26 Februa-

rie. Volgens brig. Gerda van Niekerk,

stasiebevelvoerder van die Kraaifon-

tein-polisie, staan hy tereg op twee

aanklagte van moord en drie van po-

ging tot moord.

Meer besonderhede sal tydens die

borgaansoek bekend gemaak word.

Die polisie gaan borgtog teenstaan.

Van Niekerk het egter ges dat die in-

hegtenisneming met behulp van inlig-

ting uit die gemeenskapmoontlikwas.

Holly enManuel, albei leerlinge van

die Horskool Scottsdene, is in Petuni-

astraat afgemaai waar hulle saammet

ander vriende langs n kragboks in die

straat gestaan het.

Die verdagte het van die toneel ge-

vlug en die polisie tot gisteraand ont-

duik, toe ons speurders hom ingehaal

het, het lt. kol. Andr Traut van die

provinsiale polisiekantoor ges.

Saterdag het die

Kraaifonteinbrandweer

die kinders van

Kingdom Kidsklub

genooi om te kom leer

hoe om brande te

bestry. Die kinders was

uit hul nate van

opgewondenheid om

die brandweerwaens

van nader te bekyk.

Die klub is n filiaal van

n plaaslike kerk in

Scottsdene, Word

Impact Faith Ministry.

Alles geleer om brande te bestry

Almal het n beurt

gekry om die brand

slang vas te hou.

VERVOLG VAN BLADSY 1

Maar ek besit nie eers n selfoon nie!

Wat word vanmy geld en wie gaan kos

op my tafel sit? vra sy.

Haar pleidooi is deur tientalle ander

bejaardes beaam.

Terblanche het die bejaardes ver-

soek om klagtes aanhangig te maak.

Hy het bejaardes ook versoek omnie

enige inligting telefonies aan soge-

noemde Sassa-beamptes te gee nie.

Moet ook nie eens die deur oop-

maak vir persone wat aan jou voor-

deur klop en s hulle is van Sassa nie,

het hy ges.

Sassa-werknemers sal slegs skakel

om n afspraak temaak omhulle by die

Sassa-kantore te kom sien en sal nooit

persoonlike inligting vra nie.

In n onderhoud met TygerBurger

het Terblanche ges dat Sassa teen

April 2017 hul eie uitbetalings gaan be-

hartig. Die huidige diensverskaffer,

CPS (CashPaymasterServices), se ten-

der is verlede jaar deur die konstitusi-

onele hof ongeldig verklaar as gevolg

van sekere ongerymdhede tydens die

tenderproses. Die ongeldigheid is eg-

ter opgeskort tot die kontrak in Maart

2017 tot n einde kom.

Ons het verlede jaar n nuwe tender

uitgesit, maar daar was geen sukses-

volle kandidate nie; daarom gaan ons

die uitbetalings self behartig.

Terblanche het bejaardes ook ge-

waarskuomversigtig teweeswanneer

finansile instellings begrafnispolisse

aan hulle wil verkoop.

Intussen het Albert Fritz, LUR van

die departement van maatskaplike

ontwikkeling in die Wes-Kaap, n be-

roep op Sassa gedoen om dadelik die

onregmatige aftrekkings te staak.

Sassa moet ieder en elke klag on-

dersoek en optree, s hy.

Dis weer basaartyd vir die NGKerk Sonstraal

op Saterdag 27 Februarie.

Dit word by die Privaatskool Curro in Mo-

mento-rylaan, Durbanville aangebied en be-

gin om 09:00. Daar sal heerlike eetgoed soos

pannekoek, basaarpoeding, boereworsrolle,

A

n avid nature conservationist and

Miss Earth South Africa ambassador

Andrea von Gunten, originally from

Durbanville, is planning to cycle 109km in

the upcoming Cape Town Cycle Tour to col-

lect one tree per kilometre covered.

Andrea, who attended primary and high

school in Durbanville, but now lives in Ke-

nilworth, challenges cyclists and support-

ers to donate or sponsor a tree for this im-

portant cause.

Thiswill bemy third Argus that Imrid-

ing and I thought instead of just riding it,

why not ride it for a cause, she says.

All the trees will be planted at schools in

underprivileged communities, community

centres, old age homes or any place in the

Western Cape that needs greening and up-

liftment.

This project is about bringing communi-

ties and people together and I want to be an

example that you can take any ordinary

event and turn it into something extraordi-

nary. Small initiatives like this can turn in-

to something great and thats what I hope

to achieve with this, she says.

She will be cycling with her father, Peter

von Gunten, and her sister, Melanie. My

dad has always been my inspiration as this

is his 15th Cape Town Cycle Tour. He is the

reason my sister and I are cycling today.

Only indigenous trees such asWild Olive,

Grevias, Virgilia Oroboides and fruit trees

will be suitable. Suggestions of schools or

organisations that are in need of greening

are also welcome.

Die polisie in Goodwood wil motorhande-

laarswaarsku teen nnuwemodusoperandi

watmotordiewe gebruik ommotors by han-

delaars te steel.

Volgens lt. Wayne Theunis, polisiewoord-

voerder, nader twee verdagtes die motor-

handelaars om glo n motor te koop.

Volgens ons inligtingbesoek nverdagte,

in sy sestigs, die handelaar met die oog om

n voertuig te koop. Tydens die onderhande-

linge sal die verdagte die kattebak meet om

kamstig te kyk of sy gholfstokke daarin pas.

Hierna vra die verdagte of hy diemotor kan

toetsbestuur.

n Tweede verdagte kom dan op daardie

oomblik en vra die verkoopsman vir baie

belangrike dokumente en wanneer die ver-

koopsman kantoor toe gaan, klim die twee

in die motor en jaag weg, s Theunis.

Volgens hom het die motordiewe al by

tweehandelaars inGoodwood, een inKraai-

fontein en een in Tableview toegeslaan.

Die ouens raak elke dag slimmer en sal

enigiets probeer om hul hande op motors te

kry. Handelaars moet nie so hard probeer

ommotors van die hand te sit dat hulle ver-

geet om die kopers ordentlik dop te hou nie.

Motordiewe lyk nie noodwendig soos n

gewone straatboef nie en is baie gesofisti-

keerd.Onswil n beroep doen ophandelaars

om nie vir een oomblik die sleutels van die

motor aan n moontlike klint te oorhandig

sonder om toesig te hou nie.

Moet ook nie jou aandag laat aflei deur

enigiemand anders nie, want die ouens ver-

dwyn binne sekondes, s Theunis.

V Mense met inligting oor die verdagtes, kan die

speurders by die Goodwoodpolisie by 021 597 1760

bel.

T

wee Kraaifontein-skole het koning ge-

kraai in dieATKV se nasionaleHande-

vat-kompetisie vir 2015 en weer eens

daardeur bewys dat Suid-Afrika se ren-

boogstorie nog lank nie sy kleur verloor het

nie.

Die Horskool Monumentpark en die Pri-

mre Skool AME Kraaifontein is Vrydag

amptelik aangewys as die nasionale kampi-

oene vir 2015 en het prysgeld vanR30 000 elk

ontvang.

Di projek se naam beskryf sy doelstel-

lings perfek: dat n bevoorregte skool, in di

geval Horskool Monumentpark, hande

vat met n minderbevoorregte skool om

laasgenoemde se omstandighede volhou-

baar te verander.

Winnie Viljoen, n onderwyser by die Ho-

erskool Monument Park en die projekleier,

vertel meer. Nadat ons twee skole aan die

begin van 2015 besluit het om aan die kom-

petisie deel te neem, moes ons eerstens be-

paal waar die behoefte l om n projekplan

uiteen te sit en aan die ATKV voor te l.

Maatskaplike dienste, met die fokus op

kindermishandeling, is as die grootste be-

hoefte by AME gedentifiseer.

OmdatMonumentpark oor hul eie maat-

skaplike werker beskik wat deur die skool

self besoldig word, het ons besluit dat daar

s n verskil gemaak kan word, s Viljoen

Die ATKV het die groen lig gegee en vin-

nig is n span bymekaar gebring, wat lede

van die leerlingraad en die horskool se ge-

meenskapsdiensorganisasie, #HeroesRoar,

ingesluit het. In die daaropvolgende jaarhet

uiteenlopende programme en aksies groot

verandering meegebring in die gemeen-

skappe. Onderwysers en leerderleiers het

opleiding ontvang oor bewusmaking van

kindermishandeling, terwyl gemeenskaps-

betrokkenheid aangemoedig is. Op 16 Junie

het tien omliggende skole n optog gehou na

die Kraaifontein-polisiekantoor en n dra-

ma wat mishandeling uitbeeld, is aan die

hele Primre SkoolAMEKraaifontein opge-

voer. Verder is pamflette met inligting oor

mishandeling en kontaknommers aan leer-

ders by AME uitgedeel, s Viljoen.

Daar is selfs n traumahoekie en trauma-

fonds by die skool geskep. Hiervoor het die

ATKV R3 000 beskikbaar gestel.

Viljoen s die projekte het beide skole

deur die loop van die jaar baie besig gehou

om groot suksesse te behaal.

Op 19 Januarie het die finale beoordeling

plaasgevind.

Beoordelaars het na die skool gekom om

die projek self te beleef en n n kort verwel-

koming het almal naAMEbeweeg, waar die

res van die beoordeling plaasgevind het.

Diewonderlike nuus oor diewenvennoot-

skap is kort daarna ontvang.

Viljoen s hulle is in die wolke en dat die

oorwinning verreikende gevolge gehad het.

Almal betrokke by die projek het per-

soonlike groei ondervind. Daar is nuwe be-

tekenis gevind in die belangrikheid van ge-

meenskapsbetrokkenheid. Die prysgeld

gaanbaie gate toestop,maarmeerbelangrik

vir ons almal was die lesse wat ons daaruit

geleer het. Die was alles die moeite werd.

T

he Western Cape Education Depart-

ment (WCED) is investigating a tutor

centre in Durbanville, which former

parents and an ex-facilitator claim is run as

a school, but not registered as such.

The Study Xpress tutor centre, which

opened in January last year on the corner

of De Villiers and Wellington roads, caters

for about 80 children fromGradeR tomatric

all children who could not be accommo-

dated inmainstreamschools or do not bene-

fit from a mainstream environment.

The centre makes use of the private Im-

pak curriculum and is accredited as an Im-

pak centre. The cost for a Grade 10 learner

is around R3200 per month.

However, according to the School Act,

home-schooling must take place primarily

at the childs home, or the centremust regis-

ter as an independent school with the de-

partment and adhere to a whole lot of re-

quirements regarding space, design and fa-

cilities.

The managing director of Study Xpress,

Ivan Grobler, told TygerBurger the centre

was not operating as a school and no formal

classes were presented. The learners follow

a home-schooling programme and only at-

tend the centre every day between 08:30 and

13:00 for assistance by facilitators.

Advertised as school

This isnot true, saidNatashaRheeders,

a former parent who also worked as a facili-

tator at the centre.

She tookherGrade 10 sonout of the centre

in the first week of February. At least seven

more learners left the centre in the first

week of February.

You can walk in at any time and find

foundation phase children being taught in

a classroom set-up. Lessons areworked out.

We received letters that the hours are

08:00 to 13:00 and there are even two breaks.

Of course this is formal teaching, she said.

Parents who enrol their children there,

are already desperate. When I moved to

Cape Town in themiddle of last year, we ap-

plied to four high schools, but they were all

full, said Rheeders. I had no alternative

but to consider home-schooling. I came

across Study Xpress, which advertised

themselves as a school on their Facebook

page and in their correspondence to me.

Their mandate states they can facilitate

any of the subjects on the list offered by the

Impak curriculum.They further invitedme

to a meeting to explain to me that my son

will be getting better than private school

education.

So, I ended up at Study Xpress not only

as a parent, but also as one of their facilita-

tors. I attended a two-week training session

togetherwithother facilitators, andalready

during this time I had my doubts.

Merely a facilitator

During the training itwas hammered in-

to theheads of facilitators that StudyXpress

wasmerely a facilitator and childrenmust

learn to work on their own.

Whilst this is the basis of home-school-

ing, it is not what they offer and charge for.

Parents are told that they are getting

one-on-one tutoring with facilities that

have state of the art equipment and quali-

fied tutors in each subject area. This is not

true. There are no tutors that can facilitate

any technical subjects.

According to Rheeders the building holds

more children and adults than the health

department would allow and does not have

enough ventilation. There are also only two

toilets on the premises.

This facility is also catering for children

with medical needs, such as those being on

medication for ADD andADHD. There is al-

so a special needs child in Grade 1, with no-

body at the centre being qualified or trained

to deal with such children, she said.

Rheeders said she decided to take her son

out and resignedas facilitator after she real-

ised that the level of teaching was not up to

standard.

Another former parent at the centre,

Rene Herbst, said she took her son out of

a public school in August 2015 as she was

impressed with the Study Xpress offer and

wanted the best for her son.

They later told me that I misunderstood

the part about them ever tutoring they

merely offer facilitation.

I started tomistrust their system and de-

cided to investigate. Two weeks into the

first term, my son still didnt have certain

subjects; there was no teacher for EGD, a

brand new subject; there was no mobile

physics unit as promised.

When his facilitator left, its was the last

straw and I removed my son and enrolled

him in Abbotts. He had to catch up and had

extra lessons every day since he started, be-

cause he was so far behind.

According to Grobler he was busy with a

legal process with both the former parents.

Not everybodywill fit inwith our centre.

We cannot keep everybody happy, he said.

He added that the foundation phase will

move to a new building opposite the centre

on 1 April.

e aware your wallet and cellphone

are not yet safe once you have reached

the pay point at a supermarket with-

out being the victim of a theft.

A wallet was stolen out of a customers

trolley at a pay point in Checkers Durban-

ville lastWednesdayaround 16:50 by awom-

an who pushed through the rather narrow

till point behind her back.

I was unpacking my groceries out of the

trolley baskets when this woman rudely

pushed through the pay point behind my

back. Shortly after I noticed my wallet was

missing.

Two ofmy cards were found lying on the

floor close to where my trolley was. It must

have fallen out when she grabbedmywallet

from the basket of my trolley, the victim

said.

I had my cellphone in the pocket of my

pants and claspedmywallet undermy arm,

but had to put it down in a basket at the

pay point to free my hands to unpack my

groceries, she said.

Video footage

On the video footage one can clearly see

that the suspect is holding my wallet in her

left hand and also walks through the till

point with a strip of chocolate sweets in her

right hand held up for all to see.

This she puts downat the end of the adja-

cent till (where the plastic bags are kept)

and walks off with my wallet.

It struck me immediately after the inci-

dent that under the circumstances the cash-

ier acted rather strangely and I suspect that

she as involved as well.

Firstly, how could she not see that the

woman was walking through the pay point

with anunpaid item (the strip of chocolates)

in her hand, and why did she not attempt

to stop her?

Secondly, it seemed she tried to delay the

discovery of my stolen wallet. She made no

attempt to assist or try to assist packingmy

groceries, which would have been normal

under the circumstances as I was then al-

ready searching for my wallet.

I also suspect that the cashier has some-

thing to dowith theKinder Joy sweetwhich

endedupamongmygroceries to further dis-

tract me. The Kinder Joy sweets were dis-

played on the till counter, but my groceries

were far away enough not to get mixed up.

She was also the only one close enough to

push one of the sweets amongmy groceries,

as I was on the other side of my trolley.

Investigation started

She said themanager at the time,Lourens

Botha, said people walk through the pay

point past customers all the time.

Sarita van Wyk, spokesperson for Shop-

rite Checkers, said they have started an in-

vestigation and looked at the video footage,

but have at that stage no reason to suspect

the involvement of the cashier.

Unfortunately it is a reality today that

such incidents happen in supermarkets,

restaurants and theatres. It is not possible

to keep an eye on all people, she said.

Van Wyk did not answer questions on

how many cases of theft were recently re-

ported at Checkers Durbanville.

According to Colonel Theo Fisher of the

Durbanville police, not many cases of theft

inside supermarkets are reported. Howev-

er, he warned people tomake sure they lock

their vehicles as remote jamming is rife in

parking areas at supermarkets.

ner, send an email to [email protected].

n Monday morning seven robust cy-

clists took to the road in Brackenfell

to end in Oudtshoorn next week after

a gruelling 470km journey.

Joining the cyclists from the Mountain

View Cycling Club from Goodwood Correc-

tional Services is Jody Adams, a youngman

with Down Syndrome.

Their mission: to raise money for the

cause and celebrate 40 years of awareness of

this condition in the Western Cape.

TheDownSyndromeAssociationWestern

Cape (DSAWC) was formed in 1976 to pro-

vide support and services to people with

Down Syndrome (DS) and other similar in-

tellectual disabilities, and their families.

Our programmes are aimed at improving

their quality of life in order to help them find

their purpose in life.

We want people with DS to develop to

their full potential to take their rightful

place in society as independent and valued

citizens, says organisation spokesperson

Liza Rossouw.

For the past 16 years DSAWC has been the

beneficiary of the money raised by the

Mountain View Cycling Club on their annu-

al cycle tour to Oudtshoorn.

The group of 10, which includes support

staff, will stop at various towns along the

route to create awareness for DS.

This is done through visits to schools,

churches and corporates along theway,who

all participate and support this event.

An aspiring singer in his own right, Jody

will be singing at some of the schools they

visit.

This year is a very special year for

DSAWCaswe are celebrating our 40th birth-

day. The cycle tour will be the first of many

events during the year.Wewant to thank all

the schools, businesses and individuals who

have participated over the past 16 years.

Without your support the success of this an-

nual cycle tour would not be possible. And

of course we also want to thank the Moun-

tain View Cycle Club for their commitment

and continuous support with this annual

event.

Rossouw invites the public to participate

and join in the 40-year celebrations through-

out this year.

S

ome 52 000 counterfeit DVDs and

CDs were destroyed in Brackenfell

onFriday by the Films andPublica-

tion Board (FPB).

The confiscated goods, connected to 46

criminal cases, were accumulated in the

Western Cape over a period of about four

months. Piles and piles of counterfeit

goodsweremanually fed into aheavy-du-

ty shredder in Brackengate Industrial

Park.

In an interview with TygerBurger, the

FPBregional coordinator forCapeTown,

CliveBorman, explained the detrimental

affect the counterfeit market has on the

film and entertainment industry.

The industry loses millions of rand

annually.

The goods being destroyed here today

account for a R5 million loss; we do this

quarterly, he said.

Take for instance the latest Leon Schu-

ster film, Schuks! Pay Back The Money!

Before themoviewas released in 2015,

there were literally hundreds of pirated

copies available on street corners in

Cape Town for between R10 and R20 a

copy. Due to the extent of the big scale

piracy, local producers, actors, artists

and employees involved in the produc-

tion of this film suffered huge losses, he

says.

Why would consumers pay R200 for

the movie at say Musica or up to R55 to

view the movie only once at the cinema?

And therein lies the problem, says Bor-

man.

As long as there is a demand, the un-

ending supply will continue, costing the

industrybillions.The sameapplies to the

countless video shops that have closed

down in Cape Town in recent years.

Consumers wont pay to hire it if they

can own it for half the price.

Sadly, the economic ramifications on

the country in terms of job losses are dev-

astating.

In recent years, says Borman, the ma-

jority of perpetrators selling pirated ma-

terial were foreigners coming into South

Africa looking to make a quick buck.

Although the FPB has its own compli-

ance unit, they dont have arresting

rights, says Borman, and therefor they

have to work in joint operationswith the

police and Cape Town law enforcement

units.

Counterfeiters will download themov-

ie from the internet and go intomass pro-

duction at so-called counterfeit produc-

tion houses around the city.

Its during clampdown operations at

these houseswhere the counterfeit items

are confiscated.

In terms of the Counterfeit Goods Act

perpetrators are fined up to R5000 per

item or a prison term for three years, or

both. In the case of second or third con-

victions, the fine in respect of each item

can be up to R10 000 or five years impris-

onment.

Secure complex not always safe

DESIRE RORKE

An apartment in Georgian

Palms, a supposedly secure

complex in Kruispad, was the

latest target in a crowbar break-

in.

According to Warrant Officer

Erica Crous, spokesperson of

the Brackenfell Police Station,

the resident left for work early

in themorning on the day of the

incident last week.

When he arrived later that

evening he found his apartment

had been broken into, she said.

Crous said the burglars had

gained access to the home by

breaking open the front door.

Georgian Palms is situated in

Kruispad, in close proximity to

Bottelary Road, where much

new development had taken

place in recent years.

Crous said crime usually in-

creases in areas where develop-

ment takes place, but that this

area is not a hotspot at present.

Living in a secure complex

does not automatically render

you safe. We are all potential

victims of crime.

Wenever knowwhenwewill

be targeted and therefor have to

safeguard our homes as best we

can.

In die jaar 2015 tot 2016 moet

ek n bejaarde persoon help om

Ek het tot n skokkende

gevolgtrekking gekom dat daar

n groot behoefte aan ouetehui-

se of aftreeoorde vir Kraaifon-

tein-bejaardes is.

Kraaifontein bars uit sy nate

soos daar huise en woonstelle

opgerig word vir die nuwe

geslag, maar daar word nie

gekyk na die behoeftes van ons

bejaardes nie. Omliggende

dorpe het die beste en mooiste

plekke waar bejaardes hul

laaste jare rustig kan deur-

bring en goeie versorging kry.

Hier is geweldig baie ouer

mense wat tans nog in hul

huise woon, maar oor n jaar

of drie ook n verandering sal

moet maak weens gesondheid

of verswakte omstandighede.

Dit is n hartseer saak, want

ek kry die gevoel dat ons

bejaardes nie die voorreg het

om in hul eie dorp, waar hulle

oud geword het, die dorp help

opbou het en vir jare belasting

betaal het, welkom is om hul

lewe af te sluit nie.

Komaan, stadsbeplanners,

Maak jou hart

kalm oor jou

skoonouers

D

aar is n sekere groep mense wat

diegene wat aan hul genade oorgele-

wer is, telkens reg bo-op die sny-

kant van die swaard laat, sonder dat jy

daar wil afklim. Di spesie het n naam;

hulle heet skoonmense.

Dis nie die oorneem van ouerlike pligte

in die teenwoordigheid van genoemde

ouer/s as dit by hul kleinkinders kom,

wat n mens moedeloos laat nie. Dis ook

nie die inmenging in besluite (wat hulle

eintlik op gn manier benvloed nie) wat

jou wrokkig laat nie.

Ja, jy kn seker vir skoonma vergewe

dat sy die heeldag suur gelyk het op jul

troudag; jy s die beter mens, oortuig jy

jouself.

Jys die een wat n werkbare, blywende

oplossing soek wat almal sal pas, en

sonder enige leedgevoelens sal laat. (Ook

die kleinkinders j kinders wat glo

hulle kan met moord wegkom en jy kan

nks daaromtrent doen nie, want Ouma

en Oupa gaan jou

besluite in elk

geval veto.)

Maar as jy dit

ontken, maak dit

jou briesend kwaad

as jy oor jou

frustrasie wil

praat, en hulle

bloot stilbly en

eenkant toe kyk as

jy die onderwerp

probeer ophaal.

Dan, kort daarna,

kla jy oor nog n

skoonouer-voorval

teenoor n kollega.

Die gesprek raak n algemene een waar jy

en die kollega vir die ander kollegas sit

en wag om jul weeklikse vergadering

klaar te kry. Dan hoor di kollegas die

trant van die gesprek, en kort voor lank

begin jou perspektief spreukbeurt vir

spreukbeurt te verander...

Daar is n stel skoonouers wat leef,

hoor ons, wat hul kleinkind ses jaar laas

gesien het. Di kleinkind is agt jaar oud,

en sy ouma het sy hare n oomblik lank

deurmekaar gevryf by n begrafnis waar

sy hom toevallig raakgeloop het.

n Ander vertel van geld wat elke

maand aan een of ander skoonouerprojek

deurgestuur moet word. Die een wat

binnekort gaan trou, vertel hoe haar

toekomstige skoonma vir haar klere vir

n familietroue kom uitkies het, want sy

mag niks aantrek wat haar pragtige

tatoes sou afwys nie. Daar is ook die

skoonouer wat haar mishandelende seun

bygestaan het toe di haar skoondogter

verneuk het mt die skoondogter se

suster. En soos jy luister, dink jy: Bly

stil. Maak jou hart kalm. J skoonouers

Vroeg vanjaar ontvang ek n

mekaar nie mooi nie, want hoe

Dis toe dat ek onthou van die

Hoewel hulle n tegniese

gee hy my gelyk en noem dat

dat ek met die bedrag, sowel as

Residents to get wise

City of Cape Town mayor, Patricia de Lille,

wanted more than birthday wishes last

week when she visited the Stodels Garden

Centre inKenilworth shedemandedwater

wisdom.

There was a buzz at the busy centre last

Wednesday when she arrived and custom-

ers welcomed her by singing happy birth-

day with gusto, but there was a serious

side to her visit.

The visit in Kenilworth was to promote

waterwise gardening, an initiative by the

City of Cape Town that will see water sav-

ing ambassadors employed in all garden

centres around the Western Cape to help

customers learn to save water and reduce

their water bills.

De Lille feels now is the time to kick-start

an action plan to save water, starting by

talking to gardeners about waterwise gar-

dening. During this informal visit she chat-

ted to customers about water wise garden-

ing and promoted ways to save water not

just for theWestern Cape and South Africa,

but also for the planet.

This waterwise initiative is considered a

partnership between the City of Cape Town

and Stodels Nurseries.

It is vital that we start changing peoples

behaviour in terms of water usage and edu-

cating themabout globalwarming, the ram-

ifications of water shortages such as in-

creased food and water prices and the very

real possibility that ifwedont reducewater

consumption, this resource could run

out,said De Lille.

Nick Stodel, managing director of Stodels

Nurseries, was delighted that the mayor

chose Stodels as the venue for this drive

about water saving and waterwise garden-

ing, which is also high on his agenda.

As part of this water saving programme

the Expanded Public Works Programme

(EPWP) at theCity of CapeTown is utilising

unemployed citizens to act as water saving

ambassadors within various garden cen-

tres in the Western Cape.

Stodels Nurseries has been running a

campaign since the beginning of February

to educate gardeners about waterwise gar-

dening including the use of waterwise

plants, water saving granules, mulching to

stop evaporation, adapting gardens to the

existingwater restrictions and generally of-

fering tips about saving water.

The water restrictions are set to contin-

ue and it is up to us to contribute to a reduc-

tion in consumption not only to save on

water bills, but to save this precious re-

source and our planet, concluded De Lille.

Y

ou see, the District Six music, it

soothes your soul.

Dave van Niekerk knows all

about the music of the district. In his hey-

day, he appeared on stages around the area

as the drummer for the Paramount Dixies

RhythmBand. Now, in his eighties, Oupa,

as he is affectionately known, is keeping the

spirit of District Six alive by taking its

sounds around the world.

You cant resist the music, Oupa says.

The rhythm; the beat its so fantastic, it

keeps you hopping.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of

the forced removals from District Six, but

Oupa is one of a few people who have been

able to move back to the area. Against the

soundtrack of his favourite SammyWitbooi

cassette, Oupa settles into his seat in his

house in Pontac Street to share some of his

memories.

Oupas late father was an all-round musi-

cian. Music and all things creative seem to

run in their family. Naturally Oupa and his

brother Matt picked up instruments and

played together for the Paramount Dixies.

When he wasnt playing with his own band

he was on stage helping other acts.

Musicwas all aroundDistrict Six, he re-

calls. If you didnt hear it in the streets, you

heard it in the houses or the halls.

Besides performances at local weddings

and dance halls, the Paramount Dixies often

played at old age homes and even enter-

tained the patients at Valkenberg Hospital.

It boosts their morale, he says of these

special shows. When you go play at Valken-

berg, you take it for granted that these peo-

ple are loony toony but let me tell you,

each tune we played, the steps were there.

Oupa fondly recalls having to perform

Hasie three times in one show because it

was a favourite among the patients.

The group often arranged outings, taking

their fans with them when they went on

tour. Theyd travel in trucks, which were

more reliable than buses, but meant theyd

have to travel without bathroom breaks as

truck drivers werent allowed to drive

through the night.

Going with the band and travelling pla-

ces was fantastic, you know; we met a lot of

people.

Back home he recalls the gangs The

Globes and The Jesters.

They used to fight under themselves;

they didnt worry about me and you.

The Paramount Dixies would give them

demos at the swimming baths before they

came to watch their shows. The shows were

often at one of the many theatres in the dis-

trict.

Oupa was fond of the Star Bioscope which

he says showed all the film stars from

abroad.

If you wanted to know if you can sing or

dance: if you pass out at the Star Bioscope,

youre tops. Sitting downstairs, under the

balcony at the theatre wasnt an option.

You had to sit deep in, otherwise themob

upstairs they sommer wee on you.

During the day he could sometimes be

found near Buchanan Square, which used to

be a sweets factory. Wed stand in Francis

Street and theyd throw the sweets down.

Some workers even smuggled chocolates

and liquorice sweets out in their clothes.

That was fun.

While the band was separated with the

forced removals, they would still get togeth-

er occasionally to play in their backyards.

The music goes on.

Oupa even travelled to New Zealand to

share themusic of District Six. He points out

that the New Zealanders have always been

supportive of musicians from the district

since being exposed to it through District

Six: The Musical.

Theres something aboutDistrict Sixmu-

sic and its vibe: you cant sit on your noodle;

you must shake your booty.

Oupa urges parents to share their culture

and music with their children so that the

music can live on in future generations.

The unity, the passion, the love for each

other this is how Oupa remembers the

spirit of District Six.

V Capetonians can experience this spirit with David

Kramers new musical: District Six Kanala. The

show is on at the Fugard Theatre until Sunday 22

May and tickets are available at Computicket.

Tour of Light ends

in delightful dinner

A

nyone can learn a thing or two about

social responsibility from the seven-

year-old Hannah Joubert of Eversdal

Primary.

Hannahsmother,Angela, saysher daugh-

ter was listening to the news on the way to

school when they heard that animals and

people were dying of thirst.

Hannah turned to look at Angela with a

horrified lookonher face and said: Wehave

to help, Mommy! Angela says.

It was in that moment that Hannahs wa-

ter collection project, Tear2Water,was born.

Her idea was to start by requesting each

child in her school to bring a sealed bottle

of water on a specific day, and thereafter to

move on to the next school.

Angela says the Pick n Pay supermarket

in the Tyger Valley Shopping Centre was

willing to collect any water collected at the

school.

Eversdal principal Henk Arangies gave

the go-ahead that the learners could leave

sealed bottles of water in front of the school

hall between 07:00 and 11:30 on Tuesday 16

February.

The Petals Express couriers in Parow

sponsored peak caps with Hannahs project

name printed on it, and they offered extra

trucks to remain on standby.

The Tears2Water project was truly bless-

ed, Angela adds.

Well, on 16 February the five-litre bottles

were stacked up all over in the front of the

school. The kindness of the parents was

overwhelming and the excitement of the

children infectious, butwhen the Spar truck

pulled in and started off-loading water, the

tears piled up, she said.

This was followed by another donation de-

livered per truck this time by Barlow

World.

Not long after, the Aquilla Water truck

pulled up to also off-load a very generouswa-

ter contribution all for the little seven-

year-old with the big heart, the proudmom

says.

As if to top off such a wonderful day, Glen-

garry Shopping Centres Pick n Pay deliv-

ereda truck loadofEaster eggs one for each

child in the school.

Angela calls this the perfect wrap-up.

Through her efforts, the little girl and all

the people and companies who helped her,

managed to gather 5 200 litres of water.

This will be delivered by Pick n Pay Tyger

Valley to the area designated as being most

in need.

What a lovely story of changing a thought

of compassion into a reality and how a sev-

en-year-old can lead all those grownups to

kindness.

Hannah holds high ground
