K

eelvol oor die haglike en onveilige om-

standighede by die Brackenfell-stasie,

wat oor die jare heen onveranderd ge-

bly het terwyl eiendomswaardes in die ge-

bied daal, het n inwoner die plaaslike rege-

ring trompop geloop.

In n brief gerig aan die burgemeester van

Kaapstad, die premier van die Wes-Kaap en

almal tussen-in n brief wat ook een van

Pieter le Roux (69) se laastes sou wees het

hy, sonder om doekies om te draai, die Stad

Kaapstad beskuldig van wanadministrasie.

Le Roux, n aktiewe gemeenskapslid van

Brackenfell, is verlede Dinsdagaand oorlede

n n hartaanval.

Le Roux was oor die jare heen aktief be-

trokke by verskeie burgerlike aksies om die

stasie te beveilig en skoon te maak.

Ek rig hierdie skrywe aan u almal, want

u is almal skuldig aan wanadministrasie,

weiering om wet en orde daar toe te pas en

om verordeninge af te dwing, skryf hy.

Hy verwys spesifiek na die Stad se onver-

mo om aksie te neem teen Transnet raken-

de die stasieterrein.

In sy brief beskryf hy die toestand van die

stasie as skandelik in n era van demokrasie

en dit in n provinsiewat staatsbestuur hoog

aanskryf.

Die stasie lyk soos n bankrotspul. n

Vark sal sies s! Dis morsig. Op die geboue

is obsene graffiti en bendetekens waaraan

ons kinders en ander voetgangers elke dag

blootgestel is.

Hy verwys na verskeie verordeninge wat

eiendomseienaars beboet en ook verplig om

graffiti te verwyder en om persele skoon en

higinies te hou.

Ek sien Transnet is verhewe bo verorde-

ninge terwyl ons as inwoners sagte teikens

is, skryf hy.

Le Roux was van mening dat daar vandag

heelwat minder probleme sou gewees het as

die Stad gereeld sy verordeninge afgedwing

het.

Transnet doen net wat hulle wil en word

nie verantwoordbaar gehou nie. En die Stad

skuif net die blaamopTransnet. Dis hoekom

die stasie lyk soos dit lyk, het hy kort voor

sydood in n onderhoudaanTygerBurger ge-

s.

Hy voeg by dat die omheining van die sta-

sie ook nie voldoen aan die standaard nie,

en dat die Stad in di geval ook versuim om

verordeninge toe te pas.

AanKruispad se kant bestaan die geroes-

te omheiningdraad feitlik nie, dit is flenters

en papgesit van die werksoekers. n Flen-

terhekhangbyeen ingangengrasgroei deur

die stukkende draad.

AanWilliamdabsweg se kant is drade nie

net geroes nie, maar het dit ook gate in en

die hekke staan flentergat oop enmense loop

oor die spoorlyn.

Die drade tussen die perron en goedere-

loods is ook geroes, stukkend en die hekke

staan ook oop, skryf hy.

LeRouxwasveral bekommerdoordie goe-

dereloodswat al jare leegstaanensedert 2011

n slaapplek geword het vir haweloses, on-

wettige immigrante en dwelmhandelaars.

Ons as belastingbetalers het al (tever-

geefs) verskeie versoeke gerig om die goede-

reloods te huur en dan aan tewend vir enter-

peneurs om daar sake te doen, het hy byge-

voeg.

@dezzierorke

P

ieter le Roux het een groot wens vir

Brackenfell gehad: Dat alles veilig

moet wees die dag as ek nie meer daar

is nie.

Die welbekende woorde van hom, het ge-

stalte gegee aan Pieter se lewe, veral in sy

laaste jare waartydens hy onverpoosd aan-

hou baklei het vir veiligheid, reg en gereg-

tigheid.

Pieter is verlede Dinsdagaand op die ou-

derdom van 69 by sy huis in Proteahoogte

oorlede n n hartaanval.

Met sy kierie en kortbroek was hy n be-

kende gesigwanneer hy die strate van sy ge-

liefde woonbuurt onverskrokke patrolleer

het.

En di wat hom ken, sal weet dat hy vir

niks en niemand teruggestaan het nie. Selfs

as afgetredenehet hyhomdaarop toegespits

om die owerhede en veral politici verant-

woordbaar te hou, vir soos hy dit genoem

het hulle le bekbeloftes.

Pieter is oorspronklik van Robertson

waar sy familie vandag nog boer.

As n jong man was hy vir twee jaar n

huursoldaat in die Kongo, waarna hy vir

twee jaar by die Suid-AfrikaaanseWeermag

se spesiale magte aangesluit het.

As n bekwame eiendomswaardeerder en

dorpsbeplanner het hy homself in die jare

tagtig in Brackenfell kom vestig, waarna hy

aktief betrokke was by plaaslike politiek.

Tydens die oorgangsjare het hy die plaas-

like townships verteenwoordig op dieKaap-

se Metropolitaanse Oorgangsraad en het hy

ook op verskeie polisieforums gedien.

Ekhet hom leer kenmet die eerste demo-

kratiese verkiesings toe ons albei as raads-

lede vir Oostenberg gestaan het, vertelMa-

rian Nieuwoudt, wyksraadslid.

Volgens haar het hy tydens hul tydperk

as raadslede van Oostenberg waardevolle

bydraes gelewer ten opsigte van die beleid

en beplanning van infrastruktuur vir die

Kraaifontein-, Wallacedene- en Bloekom-

bos-gebiede.

Sy kennis van behuising en die eien-

domsmark is ook welbekend.

As waardeerder was hy oor die hele land

baie betrokke by munisipale waardasies,

s sy.

Ek sal Pieter veral onthou as n persoon

wat homself altyd aan die kant van die on-

derdrukte en verontregte geskaar het. En

hy het nooit gehuiwer om persoonlik be-

trokke te raak nie, s sy.

Vanaf 2000 het hy vir baie jare op dieWes-

KaapseHuurbehuisingstribunaal gedien en

was hy ook nou betrokke met die skrywe

van die regulasies oor onregverdige prakty-

ke in huurverband.

N sy aftrede het hy meerendeels gefokus

om Brackenfell, veral Proteahoogte en die

gebied om die stasie, te beveilig en skoon te

maak.

In hierdie verband onthou Nieuwoudt sy

vele briewe.

Maak nie saak watse sterk taal hy in sy

skrywes of gesprekke gebruik het nie, dit is

altyd afgesluit met: Alles moet veilig wees

as ek nie meer daar is, s sy.

n Inwoner, Andr le Roux, wat hom net

vir n paar jaar geken het, s gemeenskaps-

veiligheid was sy nommer 1-prioriteit.

Oom Pieter was daarom nie baie gewild

by die polisie of owerhede nie, want hy sou

nooit stilgebly het as hy opgemerk het dat

hulle nie hul werk behoorlik doen nie, s

hy.

Hy het al die landswette baie goed geken

en het nooit geskroom om die leviete voor

te lees nie, selfs nie vir die owerhede nie.

Hy het nooit sy mond vir iemand gehou

nie en tot die laaste sy s ges. Hy het nie

net opgestaan vir sy eie regte nie, maar vir

ons almal in Brackenfell.

Volgens Le Roux was Pieter in sy hoeda-

nigheidas n landsburger aktief betrokkeby

verskeie plaaslike projekte.

Dis sluit in die herontwikkeling van die

historiese Everite-hostelle, waar verskeie

gesinne van die ou asbesfabriek tot vandag

toe nog woonagtig is.

Hy het al die families daar goed geken

en het baie seker gemaak dat ontwikkelaars

di armgesinnenie uitbuit nie, sLeRoux.

Hy was ook betrokke by die opknapping

van die ou Voortrekkersaal en het altyd by-

gestaanmet nmagdom inligting oor watter

roetes gevolg moet word wanneer munisi-

pale sake aangespreek word. Hy het nooit

geskroom om enigiemand te help nie en het

gereeld sy hulp aangebied. En as hy n kwes-

sie aanvat, het hy dit nooit laat gaan nie. Ek

gaan hom baie mis.

Nieuwoudt het haar innige meegevoel

met Pieter se familie uitgespreek.

As ons almal die les byPieter leer omons

gesinne te beskerm, sal ons n wonderlike

gemeenskap wees. Sy dood is n groot ver-

lies vir Brackenfell en ek sal gewis ons

kampvegter, Pieter le Roux, mis.

Le Roux laat sy vrou, twee kinders, twee

kleinkinders en n agterkleinkind agter. Hy

word vandag (Woensdag) om 11:00 vanuit

die NG Kerk Proteahoogte begrawe.

VERVOLG VAN BLADSY 1

Ook die voetoorgangbrug hou gevare in

vir gebruikers.

Ditword gebruik vir handelaarsom

daarop te slaap en dien as toilet enmoet

deur Gesondheid skoongemaak word

teen belastingbetalers se rekening, s

hy.

Voetgangers en kinderswat die brug

gebruik, word aangeval en beroof en

jong skoolmeisies word betas en walgli-

ke voorstelle word aan hulle gemaak

terwyl daar geen beskermingsdienste is

nie. Groot, oop vure word gemaak en

vuil wasgoed hang oral oor die bome.

TygerBurger rapporteer sedert 2011

oor die rooftogte en aanvalle wat ge-

reeld hier plaasvind.

LeRouxvoegbydat die perseel so vuil

enmorsig is dat die departement van ge-

sondheid al rottegif moes uitsit om te

verhoed dat die rottepes na die omlig-

gende ondernemings en huise versprei.

Volgens hom weier die polisie om

dwelmhandelaars, bendelede of prosti-

tute daar te verwyder, omdat dit in die

jurisdikise van die Stad se wetstoepas-

singseenheid val; di s weer hulle kan

hulle nie in hegtenis neemof beboet nie,

omdat hulle nie n vaste adres het nie.

Die polisie voerweer aandat hulle net

kan optree wanneer n misdaad gepleeg

word.

In reaksie op Le Roux se brief, s Pri-

ya Reddy, woordvoerder van die Stad

Kaapstad, dat die Stad verskeie klagtes

van Le Roux ontvang het en aandag

daaraan gegee het.

Die Stad se wetstoepassingseenheid

patrolleer die area daagliks en daar

word spesifieke aandag aan die stasie

gegee. Haweloses word gereeld verwy-

der en skoonmaakoperasies vind ge-

reeld plaas, s sy.

Sy voeg by dat die onwettige hande-

laars al in die verlede beboet is, maar

dan oorbeweeg na die stasieperron wat

Transnet-eiendom is.

Die Stad het ook al verskeie kere die

probleem rondomdie rommel by Trans-

net geopper. Dit is hulle verantwoorde-

likheid.

Volgens Reddy kon wetstoepassers

geen bewyse vind dat oop vure op die

stasie gemaak word nie.

Wat die kriminele aspekte by die sta-

sie betref, moet dit deur die polisie be-

hartig word

Sy het ook bygevoeg dat die Stad op

30Mei drie dae nadatTygerBurgerme-

dianavraag gedoen het oor die klagtes

in Le Roux se brief n tweede en finale

kennisgewing aan die bestuur van die

Brackenfell-stasie uitgereik het om die

perseel skoon te maak.

Sou hulle versuim om op te tree bin-

ne sewe dae, sal die Stad n kontrakteur

aanstel om skoon te maak op die koste

van Transnet.

n Betroubare TygerBurger-bron be-

twis egter die Stad se aanspraak dat ha-

weloses gereeld verwyder word en

skoonmaakoperasies gereeld plaas-

vind.

Die enigste skoonmaakoperasies

waarvanekbewus is, is diwat self deur

inwoners onderneem is, s die bron,

wat self naby die stasie woon.

Ons mans het elke paar weke met n

paar bakkies die stasie gaan skoon-

maak.

Daar was vanoggend nog sakke rom-

mel oral op die stasie. Dis baie vuil

daar, het hy Maandag aan TygerBur-

ger ges.

Teen Maandagmiddag het TygerBur-

ger die stasie in n bemorste toestand ge-

vind, en teen druktyd kon die Stad

Kaapstad nog nie bevestig of die boge-

noemde aksie teen 7 Junie teen Trans-

net geneem was nie.

In sy laaste sinne aan die owerhede,

s Le Roux dat die Brackenfell-gemeen-

skap tot protesaksie sal oorgaan tensy

dinge nie spoedig verbeter nie.

Ons stempotloodjies is besig om

stomp te word. Ja, premiertjie, burge-

meester, en DA-leiers, neuk maar aan,

maar die oordeelsdag is naby.

Op 3 Augustus word ons ou kruis-

trekkers weer deur die DA oorrompel

met oproepe en SMSe om te stem, lui

sy brief.

Selfs die bome is bestrooi met ou klere en rommel.

illiam Abrahams (60) moes in die

donker teen die steil grasbank aan

die rand van Eversdalstraat gegly

het om na sy dood te val.

Sy liggaam is omstreeks 12:00 verlede

Dinsdag in die vlak water van n diep storm-

watersloot in die veld aan die oorkant die

Glengarry-winkelsentrum in Vredekloof ge-

vind.

n Vriend van Abrahams het sy liggaam

gevind, n daar sedert die vorige Vrydag-

aand na hom gesoek is.

Hy is omstreeks 18:00 se kant vort Glen-

garry-winkelsentrum toe om n pakkie siga-

rette en n doppie te koop, maar het nooit

weer by die huis opgedaag nie, vertel nog

n familievriend en buurvrou.

Abrahams het saam met sy vrou in Stel-

lenryk gewoon, waar sy n huiswerker is.

Hy het die voetpaadjie deur die R300-pad-

reserwe glo gereeld gestap.

Nadat n polisie-duikspan sy liggaam uit

die water gehaal het, het die mediese onder-

soekbeampte ondersoek ingestel, maar kon

geen uiterlike tekens van geweldpleging

vind nie. Volgens die Durbanville-polisie

word daar geen vuilspel in hierdie stadium

vermoed nie.

CLEARANCE CENTRE

Jip de Jager Drive in Bellville is due to be

resurfaced, and with the project commenc-

ing next week, motorists should expect some

delays due to the closure of lanes.

The resurfacing, set to cost approximately

R4 million, should be completed by Tuesday

5 July if all goes as planned.

Roads have a limited lifespan. Given the

huge investment that is required for building

new infrastructure, we undertake regular

maintenance to prolong the longevity of the

citys road network. As such, the roadworks

along Jip de Jager Drive involve the mainte-

nance of the existing road base, resurfacing,

and ancillary works to prevent further dete-

rioration and potholes, says the Citys May-

co member for transport, Brett Herron.

Some lanes in Jip de Jager Drive will be

closed to traffic for the duration of the road-

works. However, one lane in each direction

will remain open at all times.

The closure of the lanes will enable us to

expedite the roadworks so that motorists are

inconvenienced for a shorter time. Even

though the progress depends as much on the

weather as on other unforeseen circumstan-

ces, we are confident that the works will be

completedwithin threeweeks, saysHerron.

We request road users to pleasemake pro-

vision for longer travelling times during the

next threeweeks and to be patient.Once com-

pleted, we will all benefit from the new

smoother road surface and improved driving

conditions, says Herron.

V Road users are advised to contact the Transport

Information Centre for more information on

0800 65 64 63 or to follow @Transport4CT on

Twitter.

ie wreld is een enorme soetpatat ry-

ker nadat die 8-jarige Andr Pieters

van die Laerskool Parow-Wes n

monster van 11,59 kg gekweek het.

As nmens dit in lewende lywe bestudeer,

voel dit kompleet of die soetpatat jou terug

bestudeer!

Dit is ongelukkig nie die moeder van alle

soetpatatte nie, wat volgens Guinness 37 kg

weeg.

Andr se patat sal aan die anderkant ten

minste n tannie van alle soetpatattewees

as n mens dit vergelyk met ander nuus-

waardige patatte. Verskeie koerante in En-

gelandhet juis in 2008 ngroot ophef gemaak

van n Lebanese man wat n 11,3 kg-soetpa-

tat gekweek het.

Ek plant dit en my pa grawe dit uit, s

Andr trots.

Die reus is op die Pieters-plaas in Stan-

ford geplant, waar Andr sr. dit so ampers

met n voorgraaf uit die grond moes haal.

Volgens Andr jr. is die geheim om twee

keer n dag water oor die groente te gooi,

asook n bietjie strooi.

Die Pieters het ook goeie kompos gebruik

om die grond voor te berei om geboorte te

gee aan di reuse-patat.

Daar is op daardie dag n paar grotes uit-

gehaal, wat moontlik kan beteken dat de

knol miskien deel was van n gewas wat re-

kords sou slaan.

Omdat die soetpatat egter verwyder was

van die res van die plant, is dit nou sinloos

om Guinness te kontak.

Daar was juis geen terugvoering van

Guinness af teen druktyd nie nadatTyger-

Burger vir hulle n navraag per e-pos ge-

stuur het.

Die storie van Andr se soetpatat sal nie-

temin nog jare onthou word in die gesin.

My pa was besig om brandpaaie op die

plaas temaak toe hy die soetpatat uitgehaal

het. Hy het dadelik gebel en ges ons sal nie

glo wat hy nou hier uitgehaal het nie! Kyk

hierdie massiewe ding!, het hy ges, lag

Andr.

Andr sr. het dadelik na n winkelsen-

trum in Gansbaai gegaan om die soetpatat

te weeg.

Sy seun voeg by dat dit van dag een sy

droom was om hierdie soetpatat se foto in

die TygerBurger te plaas.

Noudat hy dit gedoen het, kan hy maar

begin eet daaraan. Miskien plaas Tyger-

Burgerweer n berig oor n jaar om te sAn-

dr het dit uiteindelik opgeet.

Hy sluit af om te s dat hy nie een keer

Red Bull oor die yslike ding gegooi het nie.

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

I

t seems that very little or no special pro-

visions are in place to assist deaf people

whenwriting their driving learners test

at the Brackenfell Driving Licence Testing

Centre (DLTC).

This is the opinion of a frustrated Brack-

enfell father whose deaf son has failed this

test twice in three months.

The City of Cape Town denies this allega-

tion, saying that special provisions are

available for deaf people taking the test.

The learner in question visited the centre

in January and March and twice the same

thing happened.

The traffic officer did not understand

my deaf son andmy deaf son did not under-

stand him as he was speaking too fast for

my son to read his lips. My son tried to ask

him to speak slower but the officer seemed

to ignore him and continued speaking very

fast. He seemed very impatient, says the

father, who wishes to remain anonymous.

After realising that it was futile to try

and communicate, my son just kept quiet

and decided to take the test, not being sure

of many administrative aspects. When he

forgot to circle his answers the officer did

not seem very helpful and again very impa-

tiently took the test paper from him and

told him he had failed.

The question on the lips of this father is

simple yet reasonable.

Why cant more patience and care be

shown to deaf people who take this test?

Mayco member for safety and security,

JP Smith, says this is the first time that a

complaint like this had been received.

This is not the first time that the centre

has dealt with applicants who have a hear-

ing disability (deaf applicants). In the case

of a deaf applicant and where the applicant

has informed the examiner of their disabili-

ty, the applicant will be given the option to

complete the test in a one-on-one environ-

ment.

If the applicant decides to write the test

in a group, the examiner will then ensure

that the applicant takes up a seat at the

front of the class, he explains.

The examiner will stand in front of the

applicant while presenting the class to en-

sure that the applicant understands the in-

structions given. The applicant will also be

given a chance to ask questions of clarity

should they fail to understand the instruc-

tions given by the examiner. If the appli-

cant decides towrite the test in aone-on-one

environment, then the management repre-

sentative will submit such an application

to the department of transport, says

Smith.

According to Smith, an investigationwas

conducted to shed more light on the above

matter.

Enquiriesweremadewith the examiner

who conducted the test on the day in ques-

tion and he could recall the incident and re-

membered the applicant, says Smith.

According to the examiner, it was only

after he presented the class to the appli-

cants that this specific applicant informed

him of his hearing problem.

He then asked the applicant whether he

would be able to continue with the test, or

whether alternative arrangements should

be made.

The applicant informed the examiner

that he would be able to understand

through lip-reading.

The examiner then decided to repeat the

presentation and took up a position right

in front of the applicant to give him the best

opportunity to understand. After the pre-

sentation the examiner asked the applicant

whether he understood his explanation, to

which he responded positively by showing

his thumb.

n Skenking van meer as R3,4 miljoen se

boeke gaan laerskole in die Wes-Kaap be-

hoorlik aan die lees sit!

Op Maandag 13 Junie het NB-uitgewers

di groot geskenk aan die Suid-Afrikaanse

Onderwys-ontwikkelingstrust (Saoot) by

On the Dot se kantore in Sacks-sirkel in

Bellville oorhandig vir n biblioteekprojek

vir laerskole in die Wes-Kaap.

Ek voel nou soos Kersvader in die mid-

del van die jaar. Einde verlede jaar is die

projek afgeskop by die primre skole

Scottsville in Kraaifontein, Tygersig in Ra-

vensmead en Irista in Kuilsrivier.

Met die skenking van NB-uitgewers kan

ons nou ook drie skole in die Suid-Kaap van

boeke voorsien.

Die skole wat die skenking daar gaan

ontvang, is die Sekondre Bridgeton op

Oudtshoorn, die Laerskool Friemersheim

net buite George en die Sekondre Skool

Hillcrest op Mosselbaai, het Daniel van

Wyk, bestuurder van die trust, ges.

Michelle Cooper, uitgewer van kinder-

boeke by NB-uitgewers, s sy het die berig

oor die biblioteekprojek in dieTygerBurger

van 11 Mei gelees en het n e-pos aan Van

Wyk gestuur om meer oor die projek uit te

vind.

Ons het juis op daardie tydstip oorweeg

om boeke te skenk en die projek het aan al

ons vereistes vir n skenking voldoen, het

Cooper ges.

Volgens Van Wyk het die berig gelei tot

drie radio-onderhoude en Lapa-uitgewers

en HSRC Press het ook laat weet dat hulle

boeke het wat hulle wil skenk.

HSRC Press sal hoofsaaklik naslaanwer-

ke en handleidings vir onderwysers skenk,

terwyl Lapa-uitgewers leesboeke wil voor-

sien vir laer- en horskole.

Die meeste leerders in die voorheen be-

nadeelde gemeenskappe het nie die luukse

van n biblioteek in hul woongebied of by

hul skole nie.Met die skenkings kan ons die

skole vra om n klaskamer of n le vertrek

te omskep in n biblioteek.

By skole waar daarwel le boekrakke is,

kan ons dit aanvul met van die boeke, het

Van Wyk ges.

Die boeke gaannou verskuifword vanOn

theDot se pakstoor na n stoorplek inBlack-

heath.

Gedurende die skoolvakansie sal die

boeke uitgesorteer word vir laer- en hor-

skole om die vervoer agterna te vergemak-

lik. Ek het n lys name van skole wat regtig

n behoefte het aan boeke, en hulle sal voor-

keur kry.

Hy het ook bygevoeg dat Nedine Blom,

ambassadeur van die wiskunde- en biblio-

teekprojek, tydens oorhandigings by skole

meer inligting oor die wiskunde-projek aan

die onderwysers en leerders sal gee.

V Navrae oor die projek kan per e-pos aan Van Wyk

na [email protected] gestuur word.

Unemployed equipped for life

T

he Fisantekraal Centre for Develop-

ment (FCD) near the Durbanville taxi

rank is not only about economic em-

powerment, but also about equipping unem-

ployed people for a meaningful life.

Jane Gelderman, director of FCD, elabo-

rates: We equip our students with the nec-

essary skills that will help them to become

economically active, as well as developing

emotional, social and spiritual skills.

The centre has been running courses to

support and guide the unemployed and

semi-employed for a number of years now.

The aim of the courses is to restore digni-

ty and improve self-esteem and self-confi-

dence to those who have lost hope in ever

finding employment, says Gelderman.

All students have to complete the job read-

iness course before they can move on to any

of the other courses. This course prepares

learners for the world of work by teaching

life skills, basic computer skills and a cus-

tomer service orientation.

As a Christian based non-profitable orga-

nisation, the students are also encouraged to

participate in spiritual development ses-

sions run by local pastors from five Durban-

ville churches.

Imelda Cleaphas, who recently completed

the course, says the sessions on life skills

and spiritual development taught me I am

a work in progress.

I realised that I need to be more thought-

ful when I deal with people, but that I am

quite good at resolving conflict, she says.

Another student, Ziyanda Kwinana, says:

When I started the course I was shy and un-

sure of myself, but now I have more confi-

dence and know how to communicate with

people.

Once students have completed the job

readiness course, they have the option to go

on retail training programmes at a variety

of businesses.

They can also move on to

the frail care or office basics

programmes, Gelderman ex-

plains. Upon successful com-

pletion of these work-ready

courses, FCD offers support

in placing their students,

where possible.

Entrepreneurial courses

are very important, Gelder-

man says.

There are many unem-

ployed people out there who

are running small business-

es from home. Our courses

will help them to grow their

businesses and to make sure

that they run as profitably as

possible, she says.

Our bake-for-profit

course is very popular, she

says.

Students love the combi-

nation of the theorywe teach

together with the hands-on

baking. They also greatly

benefit from their job shad-

ow at local bakeries, which

gives them the opportunity

to discover some of the finer

skills they require to man-

age a small business.

Partnerships with local

bakeries afforded these

learners with an opportuni-

ty to experience working in a commercial

kitchen for the first time, she says.

This nine-week course consists of two

days of training per week Wednesdays for

business skills theory and Thursdays for

baking practicals.

FCD will also be offering another entre-

preneurial programme a business skills

course to help inexperienced business

owners succeed in their businesses.

We will teach our students business

skills that will enable them to successfully

run their existing businesses or give them

the confidence and knowledge to go out

there and start anewbusiness, saysGelder-

man .

The modules will cover business plan-

ning, costing and pricing as well as market-

ing.

This course will also be running on

Wednesdays and Thursdays from 08:00 to

16:00.

To attend this course, candidates should

have Grade 10 and have been operating an

informal business for a period of at least

three months.

We hope that this course will inspire our

students to take that first step and realise

that as they grow their businesses, they can

become part of the solution to the unemploy-

ment problem in the country.

There are several ways in which the com-

munity can get involvedwith this initiative,

continues Gelderman.

People can identify individuals with tal-

ent and potential fromvulnerable communi-

ties and introduce them to the services of-

fered by the centre.

They can also become job shadow or job

placement partners for the graduates of the

courses, or offer their time, services or fi-

nances to ensure the continuity of this com-

munity initiative, she says.

V Courses continue to run throughout the year and

interested students, sponsors or donors can contact

FCDon021 975 7764or visitwww.fisantekraal.org.za.

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

Six thugs were apprehended by Bracken-

fell police on Old Paarl Road on Wednes-

day.

The five men and one woman were ar-

rested on several charges including that

of possession of a stolen motor vehicle

and stolen goods, possession of a danger-

ous weapon, and dagga. Implements used

to break into cars as well as a home-made

knife with a 30cm long blade were found

in the vehicle.

Sergeants Etienne Jonas and Chantel-

le Nutt were doing routine patrols when

they received a backup call from the Bell-

ville police, who were following the sus-

pects who appeared suspicious down Old

Paarl Road, says police spokesperson

Warrant Officer Erica Crous.

Jonas and Nutt responded within min-

utes and pulled over the blue Toyota Co-

rolla on the corner of Brackenfell Boule-

vard and Old Paarl Road.

When they tested the vehicle, it

showed up as stolen in Harare in 2013,

and upon searching the vehicle they

found the stolen goods, a front loader CD

player and amplifier,weapons and imple-

ments, says Crous.

The suspects, all fromRavensmead, ap-

peared in the Blue Downs Magistrates

Court on Friday.

ESM ERASMUS

@erasmusesme

A

Grade 3 pupil of Kenridge Primary

School was almost kidnapped this

past Friday while she was waiting for

her mother to fetch her from school.

This came amidst several hoax reports on

social media of attempted child kidnap-

pings at various schools around the Boland

and northern suburbs recently. In one of

these hoax reports a Toyota Quantummini-

bus was reported as suspicious, but turned

out to be agents of Ozone Aqua selling their

products.

But this time, it really happened.

According to the principal, Sandy Smith,

the child was standing near the Koos Ek-

steen hockey field at the stop street on the

corner of Van RiebeeckAvenue and Rhodes

Street at about 13:15.

A white kombi-type vehicle with a man

and a woman inside stopped next to the girl

and they told her that hermother had asked

them to fetch her from school.

The girl turned around and ran back into

the school grounds, Smith said. Themother

came to fetch her child and they reported

the incident to the police and theCNi armed

response, but did not lay a charge.

Captain Marchell Rhode, media spokes-

person of the Durbanville police, confirmed

the incident was reported to the head of sec-

tor 3 of the Durbanville police.

However, he said that it was reported to

the police that the vehicle in question was

a white bakkie.

According to Rhode the sector head said

they have been doing regular patrols at the

school since the incident.

Weve put out a message to our parents

to collect their children on time after

school. We have also instructed our chil-

dren to wait for their parents inside the

school grounds and have teachers standing

in our car park at home time to ensure the

learners safety, said Smith.

CNi armed response is also patrolling the

entrances to the school at both sides when

the school comes out in Tygervalley Road

and Van Riebeeck Road, says Stephen

Swartz,manager of the response unit of CNi

armed response.

According to him they are also on the

lookout for suspicious vehicles or people in

the vicinity of the school.

In another real incident two girls also es-

caped kidnapping at the Rusthof Primary

School in Strand last Wednesday.

Deputy principal Ikraam Wentzel con-

firmed the ten-year-old Grade 5 girls were

approached by an elderly woman with long

blonde hair, dressed in black, and a man in

a blue bakkie. The woman tried to force the

girls into the bakkie, but they managed to

break free and ran back into the school

grounds.

This came amidst several alleged false re-

ports of attempts to snatch children or peo-

ple taking photographs of children at

schools and elsewhere.

The rumours of children being targeted

at schools in the northern suburbs as well

as in Franschhoek, Strand, Somerset West

and Paarl started making the rounds a few

months ago in social media like WhatsApp

and Facebook.

Durbanville police warned that people

must make sure of their facts before they

post or distribute alerts on social media.

eing a drug addict has been likened to

wearing a mask.

At first you find the seemingly self-

confident person looking back at you in the

mirror intriguing, but before too long you

cannot even recall the real you.

You become themask, and without it you

feel incomplete. Every now and again an

addict will experience a moment of clarity

and yearn to be free. However, this is the

exception rather than the rule.

According to Ramots manager, Lettie

Visser, the vast majority of patients who

walk through their doors are there because

of someone else. More often than not a

loved one or an employer demands the pa-

tient comes for treatment. It is rare that pa-

tients realise themselves their addiction ac-

tually hurts those closest to them themost.

With Drug AwarenessWeek from 24 to 28

June just around the corner, TygerBurger

spoke to one of the rehabilitation centres

operating in the northern suburbs.

Ramot Treatment Centre for Substance

Dependence in Parow was established in

1964 by theDutchReformedChurchandhas

since guided thousands of addicts from all

over South Africa to a full recovery.

By far the two most common addictions

they treat are alcohol and tik dependence.

Every week on a Tuesday and Thursday

people from all walks of life are admitted

and subjected to an intense and profession-

ally managed rehabilitation programme,

consisting of one week of detox and four

weeks of structured in-patient pro-

grammes. Ultimately, all of the patients are

drug-free by the time they are discharged.

At Ramot, once patients are out of detox,

theydont just lie in bed.Wehavemanypro-

grammes designed to assist them in their

recovery.We provide structure, a good diet,

a creativeworkshop and a gym, to namebut

a few benefits, says Visser. We are rather

unique in the fact thatwe dont have former

addicts on the payroll, but rather profes-

sional, qualified and registered staff.We do,

however, make use of ex-addict volunteers.

We have the therapeutic services of a psy-

chologist, a biokineticist, social workers, a

teacher and a spiritual counsellor.

We see the ugly side of dagga addiction.

It blocks the normal cognitive and emotion-

al development of adolescents.We have had

patients here in their thirties with themen-

tal and emotional capacity of teenagers.

Their sense of responsibility is so far re-

moved from reality that it seems almost a

lost cause.

Donations from the public are invaluable

and serves an incredibly great cause. Any-

one who wants to show their support can

go to our website, www.ramot.co.za.

V Read next weeks TygerBurger for the stories of

an addict and an ex-addict.

Ranting over

rising rental

rates

At the start of July my 22-month-old baby

boy will be living in his third home

poor kid.

It has gotten so bad that his first

coherent sentence might very well be

Pack it in a box.

Quite astonishingly, I have moved 23

times in 17 years. Suffice to say, I know

what Im talking about when it comes to

rental prices.

It has also struck me how little home

owners know about the price of renting a

decent place in Cape Town.

All they are concerned about is wheth-

er they will be paying a little more or a

little less next month due to the interest

rate.

As rental tenants we face an industry

standard annual price hike of 10%!

Every year we are 10% poorer! Add

half a cup of Eskom and a spoonful of

inflation and you have a baked monstros-

ity that chips teeth.

In just seven

years from now

one can expect to

pay double one

pays now!

A shoestring

budget can only be

cut so much. Soon

there will be no

shoestring left!

Agents and

owners who rent

out their properties

have no problem

getting tenants

because of the

great migration

from the rest of the country to Cape

Town.

Someone ought to tell Gautengers

perhaps they are better off in the north.

I compared renting prices from Gaut-

eng and Cape Town this week. I fully

expected to see a similarity in what you

can get for R10 000 a month.

With that money I can rent a nice

townhouse with an impressive garden in

one of the best security complexes in

Pretoria. In Cape Town I have seen

smaller townhouses with smaller gardens

in Kraaifontein go for R10 000.

I love Cape Town, but something

drastically needs to happen to curb

renting prices, which are quite obviously

completely out of control.

The only way to keep head above water

seems to buy property.

The other day I went into a book store

and saw one in the self-help section about

empowering a middle income household

to buy a house in South Africa.

I paged through it in disbelief and

returned it to where it belongs the

fiction section. Rent-a-lot

I wonder if Ilse Haas is not a

bit too harsh in her description

of the terrible Capetonians

(Cape Town and its clicky

circles, TB, 8 June). The truth

is that in most cities people

are busy and have their own

circles; it is not just a Cape

Town thing.

But I wonder how far her

own ideas actually make it

worse? There are ways to

make friends. My daughter and

family relocated to Australia a

few years ago, landed in a

small town with no other

South Africans, and by being

active and helpful at school,

joining a local church, inviting

people over for a braai and

just being friendly and outgo-

ing, they have more friends

than they can handle now.

I myself arrived here in the

Cape 23 years ago and had to

hear from the Pretoria crowd

how distant the Capetonians

were. Within a few months I

had a few good friends and I

still wait to meet these horri-

ble Capetonians (they are

there, but they should not be

your norm).

It takes a bit of effort and

moving out of ones comfort

zone, but it can be done. Ilse,

you are welcome to phone me

Its not just a

Cape Town thing

More often than not when our

government hospitals appear in

the papers, they take the rap.

This time Im writing to say a

special thank you to the

excellent team at the Special

Care Unit, Obstetric and

Gynaecology, of Tygerberg

Hospital.

I am a foreigner who has

lived in and loved Cape Town

for the past five years. Al-

though living healthily with a

health complication known as

sickle cell anemia, I knew

having children would be no

mean feat for me.

When I fell pregnant with my

first daughter in 2013, my

doctor referred me to the

Special Care Unit at Tygerberg.

I met Professor Hull and his

team back then and it was a

wonderful experience being

managed by them. Although I

was in the hospital for the most

part of the pregnancy, I had no

regrets. Hence I returned barely

two years later in 2015. Again,

this team was up to the task in

terms of professionalism, care

and the help they rendered to

ensure I had another healthy

baby and that my health didnt

deteriorate.

Sickle cell anemia is not a

health complication that doctors

see frequently in South Africa.

For some of the doctors on the

team it was their first encoun-

ter of a patient with sickle cell

anemia and being pregnant was

a very high risk. Hull and his

team went over and above the

call of duty. In conjunction with

the haematology unit, my

pregnancies were well managed

in spite of the multiple hospital-

isations due to sickle cell

anemia. complications in the

pregnancy.

I must not forget the nurses

at ward C2A East they were

ding oor die afgelope klompie

oral aan die werk om onder

aan die munisipaliteit by n

W

hat if TygerBurger werent a news-

paper, but a broadcasting agency?

What if you werent bound to lis-

ten to hyper local news impacting on the

suburb you live in, but rather the northern

suburbs as a whole?

Would this then contradict what Tyger-

Burger stands for?

Followers of the newspaper on Facebook

wouldhavenoticed anew feature aweekly

wrap-up video posted every Tuesday.

In this short video some of the articles

that appear in the newspaper are highlight-

ed, giving you the biggestweekly news from

the northern suburbs in bite-sized chunks.

Some broadcasters bring you global

news, some focus on a particular city, but

no-one targets a relatively small area such

as the northern suburbs.

Thismeans, of course, that thenewspaper

continues to set the bar of hyper local con-

tent across all mediums.

One of WP Medias journalists, Brenden

Ruiter, asked himself how one can spread

the news in a digital world, and make it as

easy as possible for Facebook users to stay

up to date.

The answer was simple, he says.

Why not a weekly news bulletin? We

started amonthor twoago and thepopulari-

ty of the videos is for all to see. Its still a

work in progress, of course, with finer de-

tails still being ironed out.

A couple of minutes a week to stay up to

date with news headlines? The viewers

convenience is clearly the catch phrase.

Another imminent adoption will be roll-

ing text, whichwill mean one canwatch the

video with no sound if necessary.

In essence, it is a news broadcast with a

verybrief description of the chosenarticles.

If one snippet piques your interest, you

can read more about it on the newspapers

free website under the Netwerk24 domain.

All you need to do is type tygerburger.co.za

into the URL bar of your browser.

The same concept has also been embraced

by the southern suburbs Peoples

Post, so in just six minutes you can

get a community newspapers per-

spective of happenings in thewhole

of Cape Town.

Peoples Post journalist and bulle-

tin presenter Samantha Lee says

the additional challenge has been

an exciting venture thus far.

This venture helps us satisfy the

news needs of those on the move

and assists our journalists in tell-

ing the inspiring stories of others

that may not have made it into the

readers relevant editions.

n

Week voor verlede Kersfees het

dokters haar familie meegedeel dat

niks meer vir haar gedoen kan

word nie. Net n wonderwerk kon haar nog

red.

Die 16-jarige Jaydeen Coetzee is op 7 De-

sembermet n sagteweefsel-sarkoomge- di-

agnoseer en n talle operasies het haar toe-

stand so versleg dat medici alle hoop ver-

loor het. Dokters het nie gedink sy sal nog

n dag sien nie.

Ek het aanhou veg en deurgedruk tot

Kersfees, wat ek in die hospitaal met my

familie deurgebring het, vertel sy.

En vandag, ses maande later en teen alle

verwagtinge in, leef sy nog steeds voluit

oortuig daarvan dat sy ten volle genees is

van die kanker.

Ek gaan deur n baiemoeilike tyd,maar

ek hou vas aan die hand van die Here. Hy

het my tot hier gebring en dra my steeds

elke dag, het sy in n onlangse radio-on-

derhoud met Radio Tygerberg ges toe sy

haar geloofsgetuienis met luisteraars in

Kaapstad gedeel het.

Sy het tot einde Januarie in die Medicli-

nic CapeGate gebly waar sy chemoterapie

ontvang het. Daar het sy baie vriende ge-

maak en almal het haar in hul harte opge-

neem. Sy het ook almal aangeraak met

haar sterk geloofsoortuiging, s haar ma,

Ricky Faro.

Sy en haar ma ry elke 15de dag van

Springbok af Kaap toe vir behandeling.

Twee weke gelede het sy egter haar be-

handeling gestaak. Jaydeen glo nou sy is

gesond en dat die bestraling, wat haar nog

baie siek maak, die enigste struikelblok in

haar pad na genesing is, sMarietjie Voll-

graaff van Brackenfell.

Vollgraaff wat ook by Reach for a Dream

betrokke is, het Jaydeen se droom help be-

waarheid om n kamera te besit.

Toe ek hoor van haar wens om n foto-

graaf te word, het ek dieselfde dag nog n

plan gemaak omdie kamera byhaar te kry.

Sy is so n inspirasie vir almal met wie sy

in aanraking kom en ek hoop dat al haar

drome bewaarheid sal word, voeg sy by.

Ek wou baie graag n kamera gehad het

en was in die wolke oor die geskenk. Ek

leer myself nou fotos neem en neem fotos

van alles en almal, s sy. Terug in Spring-

bok, gaan dit nou baie goed met haar, s

sy. Ek is glad nie meer bang nie. Ek is n

kind van ons Pappa Jesus. Hy het my ge-

kies omSywerkvirHomopaarde te doen,

s sy. Haar ma, Ricky, s hulle sal binne

nmaandweet of haar liggaamverder afge-

takel word. Die dokters s so, maar nie-

mand weet wat gaan gebeur nie.

LOUISA STEYL

@lousteyl

S

yt eers twee jaar gelede haar debuut

gemaak, maar Liz van der Walt is al

klaar op die kassie te sien.

Die Brackenfell-inwoner speel die rol van

die matriarg Marguerite Koekemoer in die

nuwe minireeks Die Koekemoers.

Die reeks word deur ATKV aangebied en

isWoensdae om 07:00 opDie Groot Ontbyt op

kykNET te sienwaarin kykers die vakansie-

kaskenades van die Koekemoer-gesin kan

volg.

Die Koekemoers is n doodgewone alle-

daagse gesin wat van vakansie hou veral

as hulle kan kamp, vertel Liz. Daar is n

kmmin streep in hulle soos meeste mense

maar het so hulle is nie heeltemal alles ge-

woond nie.

Liz verduidelik dat die uitdagings waar-

mee elke gesin sukkel wanneer hulle gaan

kampof vakansie gaanhou, uitgebeeldword

met n goeie skep humor.

Haar karakter, wat sy sommer Mamma

Koekemoer noem, deel die skermmet haar

veelsydige man, Johan, gespeel deur die

Afrikaanse sanger Joe F, haar seun Johan

jr.vertolk deur TJ Day en haar goth-dogter,

MeganViperKoekemoer, gespeel deurDa-

nielle du Plessis.

Ek is baie kwaaimetmyman enhouhom

graag op sy tone, s Liz van Marguerite.
