• BRAAI DAY on 24 Sept. THABA Chweu contractors are creating

chaos with their “water upgrade” project. Following weeks of unsuccessful work in Berg Street near the hospital, that left residents in Lydenburg and Mashishing without water for days on end, the same problems are occurring all over town.During Tuesday 15 September another unsuccessful connection on the corner of Preller and Pretorius streets burst during the night, flooding the home of Highlands Panorama News owner Andre Coetzee, with centimetres of mud. The water mass shorted out electrics and a

power failure ensued. The pavements in this area have been ruined for months and several indigenous trees which Mr. Coetzee bought, planted and took care of 19 years ago were destroyed. Repairs to concrete pathways are substandard and breaking up all over Pretorius Street. The Coetzee family had to hire cleaning services as well as private labour to clean up and try and protect the property, at great cost and with little success. Water damage to the property is escalating.The contractor attended to the problem on Wednesday and the connection again failed on

Saturday the 12th, once again flooding the property. The contractor then arrived later on Saturday and on Sunday morning the connection failed again. Following “repair” work on Sunday, the hole was again full of water on Monday morning, indicating that the joint is once again failing. This line feeds directly to Mashishing, with the result that Mashising and Lydenburg residents again suffered at least four days without water. Between the Municipality and the various contractors and sub contractors, everyone is playing the blaming game and no one accepts responsibility for compensation. Continues on page 2.

Sabie, another messPREMIER David Mabuza must urgently intervene in the violent service delivery protest action currently taking place in Sabie. This action compromises tourism in one of Mpumalanga's popular tourist attractions and might also lead to job losses.Protests in the small tourist town which is situated in the Thaba Chweu Local Municipality (part of Lydenburg), started in June this year where residents are demanding among other things the following:• Immediate halt of current water and electricity cut-offs carried out by the Thaba Chweu Local Municipality,• Return of land to municipality which is alleged to have been unfairly expropriated by forestry firms as the only alternative to address housing challenges in Sabie,• Immediate halt of illegal, unfair, and unlawful appointments within the

continues from page 1Because of the risk to his property, Mr Coetzee has requested that proper berms or earth walls be erected to protect his property, until such time as the work proves satisfactory, but nothing is being done, as the contractor is sure that he can fix the problem, which he is clearly struggling with.In the meant ime the HIGHLANDS PANORAMA NEWS took pictures of other work undertaken by these contractors throughout town. It proves a big problem. At the Berg Street site near the hospital, no rehabilitation was done. The same goes for several sites near the corners of Lydenburg and Berg, Du Toit and Voortrekker, Ruiter and Chris Lombard, Voortrekker and Simmond, Pretorius, Morgan Streets and several other places. Photographic evidence now exists of open trenches with no protection for children or adults walking along these streets at night on unlit streets. Brickwork at manholes clearly seem substandard and a small overflow furrow at the corner of Morgan and Ruiter is so unprofessionally constructed it looks like a primary school kids project.Contractors working at the sites throw their rubbish down where they work and each site is littered with cool drink bottles and food refuse containers. Contractors were seen urinating on the pavements.While Thaba Chweu is allegedly spending millions from a state grant on this so far unsuccessful project, less than a million would have fixed most of Lydenburg’s water woes. During an electricity outage, the Municipality has insufficient standby diesel generating capacity to keep the pumps running and large parts of town are without water less than an hour after a power outage. A proper new automatic generator could have been permanently installed for less than a million. This was communicated to the previous mayor in person more than a year ago.All the new pipes and reservoirs, will not address this basic shortcoming.It is clear that the current project is not going well and could end up as another wasted tender and fruitless expenditure, which might need to be investigated by the Public Protector. We need to rescue it while there is still time. Andre Coetzee

Tourists scammed at ATM’s in Lydenburg

OVER the past years it has become evident that many tourists (particularly overseas tourists) have been scammed at various ATM’s in Lydenburg and substantial sums of money have been taken out of these tourists’s bank accounts. The scam works as follows: • Tourists are pulled off the road by official looking individuals posing as police or ‘toll road’ police. They are advised that there is a toll gate in the area, but that it is broken so tourists need to go with these individuals to the closet ATM to buy a toll gate pass. The unsuspecting tourists then accompany these individuals to the ATM where they are scammed of their card details and large sums of money are withdrawn from their accounts. These withdrawals are only seen later by the tourists. The Kruger Lowvveld Chamber of Business and Tourism (KLCBT) uncovered the

scam through their extensive membership network as the victims report these incidents to their hosts in the area. The Chamber believes that the number of actual cases is far greater than those reported. The KLCBT has printed a hundred thousand cards, warning tourists about this scam and roadside corruption by traffic officials, (another crime that is seriously affecting tourism in the region). Furthermore the Lydenburg Mashishing Chamber of Business has erected a sign near the Dullstroom turnoff warning tourists of these criminal activities. KLCBT requests all banks to assist them in preventing such crimes against unsuspecting tourists by agreeing to erect signs at all the ATM’s in town warning people about these toll gate scammers. This is yet another reason why SA is losing tourists.

BAIE interessante storie dié van die oermens of mensaap wat sopas weer by die wieg van die mensdom in Gauteng opgegrawe is.Die gevaarte se brein was glo so groot soos ’n lemoen en sy voete dui daarop dat hy regop (of geboë) geloop het. Sy hande dui ook daarop dat dit heelwat geklim het. Seker boom. Glo nie daar was veel anders wat hy kon klim nie.Die fossielfonds het wetenskaplikes, konserwatiewes, kerklikes, evolusieleer aanhangers en al wat leef en beef aan die gons. Die Bybel en die skepping word nou weer

uitmekaar getrek en Vavi sê hy stam nie van ’n aap af nie. Stem saam met hom. Ek ook nie.Was die perd se naam Adam? Beteken dit dat dit is soos die mens in Genesis gelyk het? Is dit die Skepper se beeld? Of gooi ons nou weer die Skrif saam met die badwater uit?Dink aan die lekker politieke implikasies van dié fonds. As dit my en jou voorouers is, dan is dit duidelik dat ek nie ’n setlaar is nie, maar net soveel reg soos enigiemand het om hier te wees. Miskien het Homo Naledi gatvol geraak vir sy boeties hier rond en sy pad opgeklim tot in Europa. Daar het die gebrek aan sonlig hom spierwit gebleik en in 1652 het hy as ’n Hollander terug

gekom huis toe. Lekker storie dié. ’n Klomp nonsens.As die mens uit die ape ontwikkel het, verstaan ek hoekom die gorillas en sjimpansees vergeet het om ook deur evolusie aan te pas en nie “mense” te word nie. Hulle noem dit spesiasie. Wetenskaplikes sê die mens het nie uit ’n aap ontwikkel nie maar uit ’n oermens sonder ’n stert.Nee wat, hierdie is g’n my voorouer nie. Hulle beweer dat die mens en primate 99% naby is aan mekaar en dis bewysbaar. Ja wel, so produseer soogdiere almal melk en het hulle tieties. Hou gerus vir ’n paar dae ’n trop bobbejane dop. Hulle openbaar ook mensagtige kenmerke en gedrag. Ek ken ’n paar mense wat helder oordag op ’n klip sit en slaap, wat hulle #$%^ krap as dit jeuk en wat hulle gatte af skrik as hulle ’n klip omrol en ’n slang sien, of gesuip raak op maroelas.Nietemin, goeie vonds. Dit verbreed ons natuurhistoriese kennis. Maar moet tog nou nie weer hieruit ’n “issue” maak nie.

Psalm 46:2: God is vir ons 'n toevlug en 'n beskerming; Hy was nog altyd bereid om te help in nood.Dankie vir hierdie wonderlike versekering Here - Amen.

DIE afgelope week het Vlytige Vingers (die besige bye en kreatiewe groep) van Lydenburg Dienssentrum van me. Hantie Bezuidenhout afskeid geneem. Me. Bezuidenhout was 29 jaar bestuurder van die Dienssentrum en het “uitgetree" om bietjie meer tyd aan haar eie stokperdjies te spandeer en dalk haar wanderlust 'n bietjie op te knap.Alhoewel trane weggepink is, was dit heerlik om op ligte trant te besin oo r d i e doe l s t e l l i ngs van "bejaardesorg" en doel van Dienssentrums soos dit verskil vanaf 1985 tot 2015. Die wenke het gewissel van fiksheid en oefening, kreatiewe inkleurboeke asook nuwe idees vir ‘spinning’, maak van handsakke van ouma se ou gehekelde doilies e n t a f e l d o e k e t o t i n t e r n e t g e l e t t e r d h e i d . Vlytige Vingers gaan voort en belangstellendes kan kom tee drink

en op Donderdae op die uitkyk wees tusen 09:00 en 11:00 vir al die interessante aanbiedings asook projekte en hope inspirasie!Ons groet Hantie, ons sal haar humor, positiewe insette en toegewydheid op Donderdae mis!

(Sy gaan nog voorlopig aanbly in Lydenburg en verhuis volgens planne, eers volgende jaar na Pretoria.) Geniet al die ander uitdagings wat nou vir jou voorlê! • Dankie is nie genoeg nie - RED

DINA Mkhonto het in 1981 by die Visserye (TPA) begin werk as skoonmaker van die kantore. Sy het ook vroeër jare uitgehelp by die skakelbord, met voorraad en sy kon die lekkerste koffie maak. Voormalige kollega van Dina, Andre Coetzee onthou spesifiek daardie lekker koffie!Op 1 Maart 1997 is sy oorgeplaas na Mpumalanga Parkeraad (MPB) wat later

verander is na die MTPA.Sy het in Augustus afgetree op 60 jarige ouderdom.Dina was die een wat verantwoordelik was vir die aankope van goed wanneer daar funksies op die Visserye gehou was.Sy het altyd die lekkerste pap en sheba gemaak.Baie mense beskryf haar as 'n baie goeie n sy

mens en sy was altyd bereid om orals te help.Sy het altyd baie goed saam gewerk met die ander mense op die standplaas.Dina is 'n persoon wat baie grappies kon vertel terwyl sy self baie ernstig was en dan het die mense geskater van die lag.Sy was 'n moeder, 'n suster en vriendin en die personeel van die Visserye was baie hartseer toe sy aftree. Ons wens h a a r a l m a l ’ n vreugdevolle en rustige aftrede toe.

Mnr Douglas Vosloo (50), oud-inwoner van Lydenburg wat vasbeslote is om sy stryd teen kanker te oorwin, het met Juanita du Plessis se optrede verlede Vrydag asook die lootjieverkope waar groot pryse gewen kon word, dit reggekry om hul fondsinsamelingsprojek as suksesvol te beskou.“Douglas word behandel deur 'n onkoloog van Mbombela en moet as deel van sy chemoterapie Erbitux gebruik. Sy mediese fonds betaal dit egter nie vir die behandeling nie en die kostes daarvoor beloop R200 000. Dit was vir ons as familie belangrik om so gou as moontlik geld vir die behandeling bymekaar te maak want die behandeling moet kontant betaal word voor dit bestel kon word en ons wou dit so vinnig as moontlik begin. Ons het nie vir 'n oomblik getwyfel om te help nie want Douglas het nog altyd 'n hart vir sy medemens gehad en het sover altyd vriende in nood gehelp” vertel Marinda Vosloo, Douglas se skoonsuster.Vorige projekte wat suksesvol aangepak is was die Winterveldfees te Steelpoort wat op 16 Oktober gehou is.

In the following years life proved hard in their new surroundings. “Fever struck down their women and children; disease ruined their crops and killed their cattle”. This state of affairs led them to move from Ohrigstad and settle at Krugespost (a sideline today between Ohrigstad and Lydenburg). From here they eventually settled on the farm Rietspruit, the property of Johannes Coetzer. Here a camp was erected which marks the site of the establishment of the town of Lydenburg. The “town of suffering” named after the suffering which the first inhabitants had to endure. In 1899 with the advent of the Anglo Boer War (1899-1902) it was under control of the Transvaal Republic. After the War in 1903 the town came under control of an Urban District Board with Mr. C.T. Rabie as its first Chairman. The following year it became a Village Council “and by 1927 the full status of a Town Council was conferred upon the town” reads the Lydenburg News article of 29 September 1950.The total population estimate at that time was approximately 2 500 individuals. Eleven months

after attaining its status as municipality, the first Major, Mr. J.W. thGoodman, welcomed delegates to the 25 annual meeting of

the Municipal Association of the Transvaal. Deputy major of the first Town Council was Mr. M.J. Marren and Councillors were Messrs. D. Ruiter, F.H. Austin, J.A. Barbas, W.F. Bufe, J. Celliers, A.J. de Souza, N.J. Schoeman and P.J. Stephan.The Council chose as motto: “Per res adversas et tolerantia ad progressionem” – From suffering and endurance came progress.

Die braai begin met maak van die vuur, nie wanneer die vleis opgesit word nie.

’n Braaier mag glad nie alleen by die b r a a i w e e s n i e , o n d e r g e e n omstandighede nie.

Onthou ten alle tye braai is 'n eeue lange tradisie, en die hoeksteen van die Afrikaner se kultuur, hoe meer jy braai hoe sterker word ons kultuur. En onthou, ons is NIE Amerikaners nie, ons braai NIE viennas of hamburger patties nie. Ons mors nie met bosveld braaihout nie. Sit ‘n tjop en wors op die kole.~ Michelle Boshoff

Vir Suid-Afrikaners is ‘braai’ ’n soort van geloof (met ’n klein ‘g’). Geloof in die kole, vuur, aanpak van vuur, hoe lank die vuur moet brand en hoe lank die vleis moet braai. En boonop is braai baie terapeuties. Jy kan ’n stukkie kaas op ’n oop vuur smelt en jy sal beter voel oor jou dag se probleme nadat jy vir ’n uur in die vlamme gestaar het. Daarom gee Erfenisdag vir ons die gulde geleentheid om een van Suid-Afrika se lekkerste erfenis-aktiwiteite te geniet. Braai. Almal is vol braaidag idees, wat gaan hulle braai, saam met wie gaan hulle braai en waar gaan hulle braai? Eintlik maak die bogenoemde nie so saak nie.Braai net!Suid-Afrikaners weet van braai. ’n Luilekker braaivleisvuur. Ek verstom my as mense sê hulle gaan sommer braai. Daar is niks sommer aan die gesis van vleis oor kole nie. Dis Suid-Afrikaans en eie aan ons. Soos ’n braaivleis-reuk. My pa het altyd gesê: “Sonde aan die ou wat my nie nooi nie.”

Gaan tik die woord ‘braai’ in op die www.google.com bladsy. ’n Volle 14 700 000 resultate word gegee. Dit bevestig dit net weer aan my dat ‘braai’ in almal se smaak val . Braai het ook nou al uitgekring na ander lande... nie as ‘barbeque’ nie maar Engelstalige-lande wat die woord ‘braai’ gebruik.

The “Good old Days”Lydenburg News Friday, 15 November 1963

thAn article about the price of liquor in the late 19 century refers to these times-gone-by as the “good old days”.

Information obtained from invoices by R. Schurink and J.L. Schurink, Direct Importers and General Dealers dating as far back as 1895, tells the story. In the article the editorial staff

remarks: “We notice that whisky was priced at 45c per bottle and London Dry Gin at less than 30c per bottle. All this, taking into consideration that all liquor was imported and that duty had to be paid as well as railage to Machadodorp and transportation from there to Lydenburg. It would also appear that 'Berg' beer is

nothing new as it was sold then already at the Club”. Yes indeed! Them was the “Good old Days.”

Not many people understand the real significance of or meaning behind Heritage Day which is celebrated annually on 24 September. For some, it is an opportunity to simply get together with family and friends for a braai, but does this take into account the multitude of cultures that make up our “rainbow nation”?

What is Heritage Day? Heritage Day is a national holiday where all South Africans celebrate their cultural heritage and embrace their diverse traditions and values that contribute to our “rainbow nation”. Our heritage is very unique and precious because it helps us to define our cultural identity and it therefore lies at the heart of our spiritual wellbeing and it has the power to build our nation. Our heritage has the potential to affirm our diverse cultures and in so doing shape our national character as a “rainbow nation” at peace with itself. In short our heritage celebrates our achievements and contr ibutes to redressing past inequities. It educates, it deepens our understanding of society while at the same time it encourages us to empathise with the experience of others.

OFFICIAL specs and images of the Bentley Bentayga have finally been released. It’s an SUV that Bentley calls “the fastest, most powerful, most luxurious and most exclusive SUV in the world.”Its power and torque stats certainly back the first part of that claim.Under that bonnet is a twin-turbo 6,0-litre W12 engine that produces 447kW and 900 Nm of torque. The transmission is an eight-speed auto that sends power to all four wheels. Bentley claims a 0-100 km/h time of 4,1 sec and a top speed of 301 km/h.This is helped, says Bentley, by an “aluminium-intensive body” that makes it some 236 kg lighter than had it been made of traditional steel. They also claim a 14,7 L/100 km for the combined cycle fuel consumption which is fairly impressive given the Bentayga’s performance abilities. CO2 emissions are 292 g/km.While the front end takes its cues from the rest of the family – Continental GT and Flying Spur – the rest of the car is pretty close to the EXP 9 F concept. It’s not the most beautiful SUV out there and is awkward from some angles, but it certainly does have presence.Perhaps the rear three-quarter view best shows off its muscularity with powerful shoulders and a sweeping roof line.As you’d expect, the interior leaves you no doubt that your large bank transfer was justified and there’s leather and handcrafted finishings everywhere. It has Bentley’s familiar split cockpit design with the centre console dominated by the infotainment system and eight-inch display. The front seats, covered of course with premium leather upholstery, are 22-way adjustable and have heating, ventilation and massage functions.You can also specify a four-seat interior with two individual rear seats. These are 18-way power adjustable and also have heating, ventilation and massage functions, as well as integrated footrests.A panoramic glass roof is standard and features two panes. The front panel tilts and slides, while the rear panel is fixed.

Options include a 1 950 watt Naim for Bentley Premium Audio system and A n d r o i d - b a s e d B e n t l e y E n t e r t a i n m e n t Tablets with 4G, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity.The car will appear i n B e n t l e y showrooms in Q1 2016.Carmag.co.za

ON 26 September you will have the opportunity to come and show your car at the Time 2 Shine event at Tubatse Crossing. The event is sponsored by NB Fitment Centre and Payless Mags and Tyres.

This is the first ever speed and sound-off event to be held in Burgersfort. The three categories include a “Show and shine” where you can show your beautiful car, a “sound off” event for the best / most powerfull sound systems, and the Dyno event. Lots of prizes will be available. Contact Louis on 060 460 1144, or Noor on 079 497 5934.

WHEN the Prius went on sale in 1997 it was the first mass-produced hybrid - and it was regarded as an oddity, to be classified alongside milk floats and gas-turbine sports-cars.Now, 18 years and three and a half million units later, hybrids are part of the automotive landscape. The fourth generation Prius, revealed this week in Las Vegas, will have to succeed on its own merits as a practical, stylish family car, rather than appealing to the tree-huggers and trendies who bought the first edition.RECOGNISING THE SHIFTAnd Toyota seems to have recognised this shift, focusing on edgy design and fun-to-drive chassis dynamics, as much as 'green cred'.It's the first car to reach the market that's built on the more rigid Toyota New Global Architecture platform, with revised front struts and rear double-wishbone suspension, and a lower centre of gravity than its predecessor.It's 60mm longer, 15mm wider and 20mm lower - but what's more striking is that the highest point of the roof has moved forward and the bonnet-line lowered to the point where the Toyota badge on the front is the same height as on the GT86 sports-car.Toyota is emphasising the new car's tight, accurate steering, agile handling and sporty suspension, none of which is an exclusively hybrid characteristic.HYBRID EVOLUTIONBy contrast, the changes to the drivetrain have been evolutionary, rather than ground-breaking; almost every mechanical component has been replaced, revised or just plain blueprinted to reduce both bulk and weight, without sacrificing performance.

The result, says Toyota, is a Prius that's no faster than its predecessor, but lighter, nippier and significantly more fuel-efficient; the slide-rule sensei are claiming a thermal efficiency rating of more than 40 percent.The interior is just as edgy, featuring a wide instrument panel with layered construction that clearly defines the "display zone", separating it from the "control zone", which is now closer to the driver.Striking if rather impractical trim elements in the lower section of the cabin are finished in white, which Toyota says is intended to evoke an impression of fine bone china.The new Prius will be released in Japan at the end of 2015, and sales will be rolled out around the world during 2016; Toyota SA says it is currently looking at Prius 4.0 with a view to local launch, but that no decision has yet been made.iol.motoring.com

EARLIER in September, Wheels24 published mortuary statistics released by the Gauteng legislature.In Gauteng, you're more likely to be killed in a car crash than being shot, according to province's mortuary figures.In 2014 / 15, 1 707 died as a result of crashes. Pedestrians suffered too, with 1 193 deaths recorded.No.1 killerReckless drivers, minibus taxis, pedestrians... we asked readers 'what do you think is the biggest cause of road deaths in SA?' and a News24 poll garnered 40 994 votes. • Reckless driving 15 479 votes • Unroadworthy vehicles 2 535 votes • Drunken driving 2 261 votes • Minibus taxis 11 982 votes • Unqualified drivers 7 492 votes • Pedestrians 1 245 votesThe majority of users believe reckless drivers (15 479 votes) are to blame for the majority of road deaths with taxi drivers (11 982) as the second biggest killer.

More than 7 400 readers believe 'unqualified drivers' to be killers on our roads. Surprisingly, only 2 261 think drunk drivers are responsible for road deaths and even fewer said unroadworthy vehicles (2 535) are to blame.

AUDI South Africa has launched the newest addition to its local RS family - the 2015 RS6 Avant. Following the recent facelift to its A6 range earlier in 2015, Audi says the new RS6 Avant "pushes the goal posts further in terms of design and performance".Powered by a 4.0 litre turbocharged petrol unit capable of 412kW / 700Nm, it sprints to 100km/h in 3.9 seconds. It's mated to an eight-speed tiptronic, Quattro all-wheel drive and centre differential.Top speed is limited to 250km/h though the optional dynamic package removes its muzzle and owners can, says, Audi, reach 305km/h.It's a station wagon and as a result has a cavernous boot; Audi claims its RS6 has 565 litres of luggage space that can be increased to 1 680 litres with the seats folded.Audi claims its RS6 uses 9.8 litres/100km due to the automaker's cylinder-on-demand technology. The system cuts four of the eight cylinders, depending on driving conditions, to reduce consumption.Wheels24's Sean Parker spotted the media test unit earlier in September. Wheels24.co.za

JUST to prove that sporty estates are not the preserve of the German autocracy, Opel has released details of the Astra Sports Tourer, due to debut in less than a week at Frankfurt.Like its hatchback sibling, it's built on new, lightweight architecture, with new engines and lots of new gizmos, but the long, slightly arched roof line gives it a more dramatic profile, as does the divided C pillar.The Opel white coats have exercised their Tardis magic to some effect; the new Tourer is exactly the same size as its predecessor - 4 702mm long, 1 871mm wide and 1 499mm high - but it's up to 200kg lighter, depending on the model and it's significantly bigger inside.Driver and front passenger have 26mm more headroom, rear passengers an extra 28mm of leg room, and luggage capacity with the 40:20:40 split rear seat-back folded is up 80 litres to 1630 litres.POWER TAILGATEAnd, for the first time on an Astra, as long as the fob for the keyless entry and start system is in your pocket, a wiggle of the foot under the rear bumper will operate the power-operated tailgate.The Astra Sports Tourer will launch in Europe with petrol and diesel engines from one-litre to 1.6-litre capacity, ranging from 75 to 150kW, including an all-new 110kW 1.4-litre direct-injection turbo petrol four and the recently released 1.6-litre CDTi diesel.The top-of-the-line 150kW, 1.6-litre EcoTec turbo petrol four will be seen in public for the first time at the show.GMSA says it considers everything Opel introduces for possible South African release, but that the Sports Tourer's chances of making it here are slim at best, which is a pity.iol.motoring.co.za

VERLEDE week was Nasionale b o e k e w e e k . H o ë r s k o o l Lydenburg het dit gevier deur die leerders te motiveer om op Vrydag 11 September soos hu l le gunsteling karakter in 'n boek aan te trek.Leerders het ons vermaak met hulle kostuums van Trompie tot Fiela se kind en karaters uit Kringe in 'n Bos. Me. Nadia Lamprecht, organiseerder, wat self soos 'n vampier aangetrek was, wou die leerders aanmoedig om weer bewus te raak van boeke en die groot rol wat dit in hulle lewens kan speel. Ten spyte van al die sosiale media en ander elektroniese middels is dit steeds 'n beter ervaring om 'n boek te lees. Leerders wat nie soos 'n karakter wou aantrek nie, moes 'n boek aan die skool skenk om “gewone” klere aan te trek. Die leerders kon enige boeke skenk, selfs naslaanwerke is verwelkom. Die geld wat ingesamel is met die projek, sal aangewend word om 'n informele biblioteek by die skool te vestig.Hiermee wil ons ook PNA bedank wat die eerste prys geborg het en Roe l i en Joube r t van D ie Juffrouens Bus wat die tweede plek geborg het.Hoërskool Lydenburg glo dat hierdie projek ons leerders gemotiveer het om meer boeke te lees.

gegaan om hulle te wys hoe gevaarlik vuur kan wees en het

hulle noodnommer uitgedeel sodat kinders weet wie om te skakel in tye

van nood 079 163 0814 / 082 802 1881. Baie dankie vir die

kleuterskool se ouers vir die donasie aan hulle, aangesien hulle n privaat maatskappy is en slegs aan die gang

gehou word deur donasies.

Cansa Relay For LifeLYDENBURG Primary School - 23 October 2015 - From 18:00 Until 06:00The Relay for Life was started in America 10 years ago by a doctor who wanted to experience something of what a cancer patient goes through.These days the event lasts 12 hours and the symbolic meaning is as follows:At 18:00 when the event starts, is the time when the patient is diagnosed. By 02:00, when you are at your lowest peak, symbolises the patient feeling the treatment is very tough and he/she cannot carry on.By 06:00 (or when day breaks) the treatment is done, the patient is feeling better and is slowly getting stronger.Doing the RFL, you show empathy with the patients and also get to pay homage to those who lost their lives to cancer. That is the Luminaria ceremony. Very emotional!The Fight-back ceremony allows the survivors to physically fight back against the cancer they have survived.VENUE: Lydenburg Primary School, Sport stadium and field.DATE & TIME: Friday 23 October 2015 From 18:00 Until Saturday 06:00T E A M R E G I S T R AT I O N S : C o n r a d Langenegger, Tel 071 890 2915 Email: [email protected]/SPONSORS: Liza van Rhede, T e l : 0 8 2 3 8 1 6 7 4 5 E m a i l : [email protected] fee at the gate is R50 per person for adults and high school scholars and R25 for primary school scholars.The entrance fee is R50 per person for a team which must have a minimum of 8 members.
