BOLANDWEG: SKULPVIS SE STRAATWAARDE R1 MILJOEN

Eers bordeel,

nou huis van

perlemoen

ESM ERASMUS

@erasmusesme

E

ers n bordeel, nou n perlemoen-droog-

plaas.

n Verhuringsagent en huiseienaar

het verlede Vrydag omstreeks 19:00 letterlik

snuf in die neus gekry toe hulle n inspeksie

by n luuksewoonhuis in Bolandweg inDur-

banville gaan doen het.

Sowat 5 900 ontskulpte perlemoene van

verskillende groottes met n straatwaarde

van R1 miljoen is in een van die huis se

slaapkamers ontdek.

Dieselfde huis was in Maart 2007 in die

nuus toe daar na bewering n bordeel deur

n ander huurder daar bedryf is. Daar is ook

in 2010 n perlemoenfabriek by n huis aan

die oorkant van di huis ontdek.

Die huis word sedert Junie vanjaar deur

die firma Hisense in Atlantis gehuur, maar

die inwonershet eers inSeptem-

ber hul intrek geneem. Die huis

is volledig opgeknap voor die

jongste verhuring.

Volgens Adle Wiese, verhu-

ringsagent vanNational Letting

in Bellville, het sy en Yvonne

van Niekerk, vrou van die huis-

eienaar, Johan vanNiekerk, die

huis besoek om n inventaris op

te stel.

Hoewel sy met die kontakper-

soon wat namens Hisense die

verhuring behartig n afspraak

gemaak het, wou die man wat

die deur oopgemaak het, hulle

eers nie inlaat nie.

n Oproep later het hy hulle

wel ingelaat. Die eienaar se

vrou het eers gedink sy ruik

chemikalie, maar ek het vir

haar ges dit ruik die ene vis.

Ons het eers gedink hy maak vis gaar.

Ons het dadelik besef iets is aan die gang,

want daar het n bad in die kombuis gestaan

en oral was vrieskaste.

Diemanwounie h onsmoet die slaapka-

mer ingaan nie, maar ons het daarop aange-

dring en toe die rakke vol perlemoen ge-

sien, vertel sy.

Toe hulle omkyk, was die man net skoon-

veld. Hulle het die verhuringsfirma gekon-

tak, wat die polisie ontbied het.

Daar het vermoedelik twee swartmans ge-

woon een vermoedelik werksaam as tui-

nier, hoewel die huurders Chinese werkne-

mers van Hisense in Atlantis sou wees. Die

huurooreenkoms is vanuit Hong Kong ge-

sluit.

VanNiekerk het ges dit was n groot skok

toe sy vrou die perlemoen by die huis ontdek

het.

This is the way wewash our hands

Lolite Lawrence from the environmetal health department of the City of Cape Town

shows Logan Banda (8) how to wash her hands properly during a family health day

presented by the Tygerberg Rotary Club last Thursday and Friday at the Fisantekraal clinic

in collaboration with several City and provincial departments. Logans little sister, Fatima

(4), looks on, quite intrigued. It was also global handwashing day last Thursday to

promote hygiene. Research has shown that keeping hands clean is one of the most

effective and most important steps to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others,

according to a media release by the City. See page 4 for more about the family health

day. PHOTO: CARINA ROUX

Die perlemoen is op droograkke in die slaapkamer gevind.

gave it their all. Shayla sang Birdys People help the People and won

prizes worth R14 000. She was also offered a talent representation by

America Bragaglia. With her is Razaan Phillips, who won first place with

her rendition of Adeles Make you feel my Love.

VAN BLADSY 1

Ons het geensins kontak met die

huurders gehad nie, aangesien die

verhuringsagentskap alles han-

teer het. Een van die vereistes was

dat hulle die tuin in stand hou en

onswas tevrede dat hulle n tuinier

aangestel het, het hy ges.

Van Niekerk het ges die huur-

ders het eers in September inge-

trek, hoewel hulle vanaf Junie

huur betaal het, omdat hulle glo

wouwag tot die kontrakteurs klaar

met die opknapwerk was.

Volgens hom is hy met sy proku-

reur in gesprek oor die voorval.

Lt. Marchell Rhode van die Dur-

banville-polisie het ges niemand

is nog in verband met die voorval

in hegtenis geneem nie.

Amptenare van die departement

van seevisserye het beslag gel op

die perlemoen, asook verskeie toe-

rusting, onder meer vrieskaste,

gaskanne en potte.

TygerBurger het in Maart 2007

berig oor klagtes van bure dat n

bordeel by die huis bedryf word.

Ontskulpte

polisie beslag gel het.

H

oe dit ook al na n clich mag

klink, ek dink nie ek het drama

gekies nie dit het my gekies,

het Carla Smit, n matriekleerder van die

Horskool Durbanville, ges n sy n gesog-

te dramabeurs losgeslaan het.

In s n mate het drama hr gekies, dat

sy verlede week in Johannesburg na

weeklange oudisies uit ses topfinaliste ge-

kies is as landwye wenner van 2015 se ACT

Dalro Nedbank Performing Arts-beurs ter

waarde van R150 000. Altesame 776 inskry-

wings is vanjaar ontvang.

Dit volg op n jaar vol hoogtepunte vir die

17-jarige Carla, wat vanjaar in al die drama-

feestewaaraan sy deelgeneemhet, goudver-

werf het en in vele as beste aktrise aange-

wys is.

Syhet ookdeelgeneemaankykNETseNa-

sionale Individuele Toneelkompetisie en

het die tweede plek gewen. Sy is daar raak-

gesien en gekies om in 2016 die rol van Ni-

na in die verhoogproduksie van Fiela se

Kind te vertolk, asook n rol te vertolk in n

RSG-radiodrama en n besoekende rol in die

TV-reeks Binnelanders.

Sy het kleintyd reeds begin drama neem

by Veronica Geldenhuys se Kamalielie Ka-

malollie-dramaskool; daarna in die Laer-

skool Durbanville se dramagroep onder lei-

ding van Annelie Fourie.

Ek wou net nog altyd sing of dans of dra-

ma doen en het van kleins af konserte vir

my ouers en familie gehou.

Dit was net vir my die logiese ding om

drama te doen toe ek in die horskool kom.

Ek dank my Liewe Vader dat Hy my daar-

heen gelei het, want dit en die mense daar

het my grotendeels gevorm tot wie ek van-

dag is, s sy.

In haar horskooljare in verhoogproduk-

sies onder leiding van Andrea Winckler,

Jan Burger en Amelia van Wyk, volg n rits

hoofrolle, goue en dubbelgoue toekennings

en toekennings as beste aktrise.

Sy is deur haar skool vereer as beste juni-

or en later ook as beste senior in n verhoog-

produksie.

Sy is ondermeer ook as die beste belowen-

de aktrise by die ATKV-eindronde in Pot-

chefstroom aangewys, en het die toeken-

ning as beste aktrise by die Namakwaland-

toneelfees op Fraserburg ontvang.

Haar mees onlangse gunsteling was die

skool se Sewe Deugde, nee minder ... deur

Francois Toerien.

Hoewel sy gewyfel het tussenvan regte tot

wynbou as beroepsrigting, het sy verlede

week gehoor sy is aanvaar as dramastudent

aan die Universiteit Stellenbosch.

Oor die beurs wat sy gewen het, was sy

en haar ouers baie bly. Ek het heel eerste

na hulle gehardloop, en my ma was nog in

skok. My ouers is my grootste ondersteu-

ners, en ek onthou die middag het my pa en

mamy afsonderlik gebel en in hul eie woor-

de ges dat ek dit net moet geniet en dat hul-

le niks verwag nie so ek gun die beurs vir

hulle, ek weet hulle verdien dit na die jare

se toneel, koor, dans en alles wat hulle vir

my moes betaal!

Carla is die oudste dogter van dr. Christo

Smith, bekende algemene praktisyn in Dur-

banville, en Estela Smith.

Behalwe dat my ma ons heeldag rondry,

is sy n entrepreneur. Syhet n suster,Maja

(14), wat ook drama neem, en kleinboet Ju-

an-Christoff Smith (4). Hy drama nog net

by die huis, skerts sy.

Oor vyf jaar sien sy haarself as meesters-

graadstudent in kabaret en n aktrise in die

bedryf. Oor 10 jaar dink sy daaraan om n

restaurant te begin waar kunstenaars hul

talente kan komwys maar ek kannounie

al my idees hier weggee nie, want ek beplan

om dit definitief te doen.

Sy het ook in graad 6WP-kleure in hiphop

gekry, maar my program was te vol!

Sy is gaande oor koorsang enhoubaie van

koor- enklassiekemusiek enhet sedert laer-

skool koor gesing. Sy het ook in die Tyger-

berg-kinderkoor gesing, en is nou gekeur

vir Stellenbosch se universiteitskoor!

Ek ismal oor fliekskyk.Ekversamelmu-

sicals, my gunsteling-televisiereeks is

Friends en Frasier en my gunsteling-musi-

kant is Paolo Nutini.

Ek wil eendag deur die wreld toer en ek

dink kos en kultuur maak die lewe beter.

Haar mede-wenners in 2015 se ACT Dalro

Nedbank PerformingArts-beurskompetisie

was Caleb Heynes en Andiswa Mbolekwa.

Hulle het beursgeld van onderskeidelik

R105 000 en R60 000 gewen.

D

ie voorsitter van die Aurora Commu-

nity Watch (ACW),

Francois de Villiers, is

Maandag onverwags oorle-

de.

Volgens sy seun, Johan

(33), het DeVilliers kort voor

06:00 by sy huis inAurora in-

eengestort.

Die oorsaak van sy afster-

we is nog onbekend,maar hy

het vermoedelik n hartaan-

val gehad. n Nadoodse on-

dersoek sal die oorsaak van

sy dood bevestig.

Die 58-jarige De Villiers

was die afgelope sowat twee

jaar die voorsitter van di

buurtwag. Hy was vir jare

werksaam in menslike be-

trekkinge by Business Con-

nexion in Century City en het daarna sy eie

onderneming, PL Consultancy, begin.

Hy hetmaar altyd gehelp nouweermet

die buurtwag. Hywas altyd iemandmetwie

jy kon gesels, het Johan ges.

De Villiers was voorsitter van die ACW

sedert die ontstaan van die buurtwag in

Maart 2013.

Andr Barlow, n komi-

teelid van die buurtwag,

het ges De Villiers se lei-

erskap en toegewydheid

aan die ACW was van die

beste.

Deur sy leierskap en

leiding was die ACW een

van die bestes in die noor-

delike voorstede.

Hy was instrumenteel

in die neem van besluite

om die kamera-inisiatief

in Aurora te begin. Ons

het sy kalmen intelligente

benadering tot alle aspek-

te van ons gemeenskaps-

projekte waardeer en hy

sal beslis gemisword, het

hy ges.

De Villiers laat buiten sy seun, sy vrou,

Magda, asook n dogter, Lenize (29), agter.

S

everal works of art are for sale in a

crowd funding project launched last

Wednesday by Rust-en-Vrede gallery to

raise funds to take the work of 30 of South

Africas best print artists to Mexico .

Among these artists are Durbanville art-

ists Frieda van Zyl, Johan Coetzee and Theo

Paul Vorster.

It is our dream to create a platform for the

international exchange of art and culture,

says Hamlin Jansen van Vuuren, curator of

Rust-en-Vrede.

We are crowdfunding through Thunda-

fund to showcase South African print art

abroad and to expose our audience to art

from around the world, she says.

The work of 30 of South Africas best print

artists will be exhibited inMexico in Februa-

ry next year.

This will include work in the mediums of

etching, lithography, mono printing, screen-

printing, lino printing and wood block print-

ing.

We will have a colour catalogue printed

with all the artworks and we will also invite

some Mexican artists to have an exhibition

at Rust-en-Vrede in the following year, Jan-

sen van Vuuren says.

Togetherwith their teammembers inMex-

ico, they have possible exhibition venues in

Mexico City, Quertaro and Oaxaca.

On their return to South Africa the 30

prints will also be displayed in an exhibition

at the Rust-en-Vrede gallery.

We are crowdfunding to generate the

funds for the airfare, accommodation inMex-

ico, putting up the exhibition and printing of

the catalogues, she says.

By financially supporting their project,

people can acquire orginal artworks, which

were donated by some of South Africas top

local artists, at alluring prices.

o licence disc renewal noticeswere is-

sued in September and October and

manymotorists nowhave to pay fines

for late renewals because they were not no-

tified. This is because of the National De-

partment of Transports (DOT) transfer of

the ElectronicNational Traffic Information

System (eNaTIS) to the Road Traffic Man-

agement Centre.

TheCitysMaycomember for finance, Ian

Neilson, has now called on DOT and the

Road Traffic Management Centre to sort

this problem out before November, which,

he says, is traditionally the busiest month

of the year for vehicle disc renewals.

Motorists are normally issued with re-

newal notices three to fourweeks before the

expiry date on the current licence disc. Li-

cence discs that expire on 31 October will

be renewable until 21 November.

Nielsenurgesmotorists to act proactively

to ensure that the necessary arrangements

aremade and to renew discs online at http:/

/goo.gl/Kql0tT.

Under the Motor Vehicle Licensing tab,

click on register (for newapplicants) or lo-

gin (for those already registered for e-Ser-

vices). You will be prompted to complete an

online registration form and will be re-

quired to upload thenecessary documents.

The applicationprocess takes threework-

ing days for new applicants and two work-

ing days for applicants who are already reg-

istered

He says the Citys call centre can be

phoned on 0860 103 089 to find out the

amount owing.

Alternatively, motorists can visit their

nearest vehicle licensing office.

Take your identity document, complete

a green Application for Licencing of Motor

Vehicle form (ALV form), and renew your

licence at the counter, Neilsen says.

Act now or pay fines

Here to sing all their hits: Legendary

Dutch band BZN, with lead singers Jan Keizer

songlist includes many BZN classics and of

course Mon Amour, the song that started it

all. BZN have over 50 hits on the Dutch

charts to date, and they are the only music

act with top 40 hit singles for 26 consecu

tive years (19731998), and recorded more

than thirty albums. Tickets for BZN The

What is the problem with

residents who, after their bins

have been emptied, ignore the

rubbish which has been left

behind and littering the

pavements after the homeless

people have ravaged their

bins? Yes, I realise it is not the

residents who put it there but

surely we should all have

enough pride in our communi-

ty to pick it up and put it back

in our bins? The dustbin men

do not have time to clean up

as they move down the street,

yet it only takes a few minutes

for homeowners to do so. The

results are obvious rubbish

and debris are left to blow

about in the wind.

I wonder too, just how many

people take the time to clean

out their dirty bins? I so often

pass many bins which are

filthy and very unhygienic.

Summer is coming and so

are the flies. Lets do our bit.

Keep your bin

and street clean

I reside in one of the one-way

avenues in Boston. I find it

quite disturbing how many

motorists ignore this traffic

rule by racing down the wrong

direction in these avenues.

These one-way blocks are

there for a good reason and are

important for residents who

live in these blocks.

We go to the trouble to travel

around the block to be law

abiding and in consideration

for others safety. We enter

these blocks from the correct

direction, only to be confronted

by a motorist speeding from the

front, from the wrong direction.

I am amazed at the ignorance

of basic traffic rules by these

people, and we are so quick to

point at the corrupt government

and crime.

But you, sir or madam, are

just as corrupt. These are the

basic laws of our country!

Breaking a traffic law is no

lesser crime than stealing a car.

Please, law enforcement, catch

these law breakers!

Oneway streets

there for a reason

I refer to the letter from

Anonymous Why have kids if

you are poor? (TB, 14 Octo-

ber) which was in response to

Ronel Buttons letter What

can we do to really help (TB,

7 October).

Why do you assume that the

poor person wanted to have

children? Have you ever

considered that perhaps her

circumstances might have

changed over the years?

Theres a huge difference

between someone who is poor

due to circumstances and one

who abuses the system, have

kids and take the money for

themselves. I meet a lot of

people who are poor, clean and

happy. They may not have food

every day but try their best to

do their best for their children!

Think twice before you judge

Think before you

judge poor people

and offer your free advice.

Dont think that birth control is

going to solve all of our social

problems. Thats a very narrow

minded perspective.

There are fat cats in higher

positions, dictating to us on a

daily basis and abusing the

LEWENSKIEKIE

Our driving

behaviour

should change

While Transport Month (October) is an

initiative by the South African govern-

ment to create awareness about the

impact of transport on the economy, its

also a good time to highlight issues

around road safety.

According to a report by the Road

Traffic Management Corporation, roughly

40 people die on South African roads

every day. There were around 1 368

fatalities over the 2014/2015 festive season

alone.

The sad reality about this high number

of deaths is the fact that road accidents

can often be avoided.

The Automobile Association of South

Africa (AA)s top road safety tip is

always wearing a seatbelt. A close second

is: Never drink and drive. They do

point out however that pedestrians who

are above the legal alcohol limit are just

as vulnerable as motorists.

Another cause of road deaths is fatigue.

The AA suggests safety breaks every two

hours when travelling long distances to

avoid eye strain and tiredness which

affects a drivers ability to focus.

A few simple changes in our driving

behaviour, especially as we head into the

festive season, could be the major differ-

ence between being involved in an

accident or arriving at your destination

safely.

While its easy to say Im in a hurry

or its just around the corner, one has

to ask: Is it really worth the risk not to

take a few seconds to make sure you

arrive safely?

Die projek ignoreer die

behoeftes en mening van die

omliggende inwoners en is in

stryd met hul norme.

Dis heeltemal onaanvaarbaar

in n park wat bedoel is vir

inwoners se ontspanning en in

die openbare oog is. Dis ook

onwettig.

Dit is nie n onbekende

praktyk om nuwe spuitnaalde

aan dwelmgebruikers te voor-

sien nie, maar onder streng

toesig en bepaald nie in die

openbaar nie.

Tielman Maraispark is n

is in beheer van die projek. Hy

het ges geen owerheidsinstan-

O

ud-administateur van die Kaappro-

vinsie, oudminister van verdediging

en openbare werke en prokureur tot

sy afsterwe op 84-jarige leeftyd hoe mense

hom ookal onthou, Gene Louw het diep spo-

re getrap.

Louw is verlede Maandag 12 Oktober in

die Mediclinic Durbanville oorlede n n

lang stryd met longontsteking en leukemie.

Verskeie geboue en ook die Laerskool Ge-

ne Louw in Durbanville is na hom vernoem.

Sy seun Francois Louw (49) van Welge-

dacht het ges sy pa het n onblusbare pas-

sie vir die lewe gehad en het net die positie-

we gesien. Tot die einde was hy positief en

het hy daarna uitgesien om huis toe te gaan.

Hy het nooit oor sy siekte gepraat nie enwas

nie n mens wat gekla het nie, het hy ges.

Louw, gebore op 15 Julie 1931, het aan die

Horskool Bellville gematrikuleer.

Hy was werksaam by die destydse Kaapse

provinsiale administrasie van 1949 tot 1952

as klerk.Hyhet van 1953 tot 1957 aandieUni-

versiteit Stellenbosch studeer en verwerf

die graad BA LLB.

Hy was onder meer voorsitter van die stu-

denteraad (1956/57), primarius van die Pri-

vate Studente Organisasie (1956/57) en het

die Abe Bailey-reisbeurs na die Verenigde

Koninkryk in 1957 ontvang.

Hy het in 1993 die Universiteit Stellen-

bosch se alumnus van die jaar-toekenning

ontvang.

Louw het van 1958 tot 1979 in Durbanville

gewoon, waar hy tot 31 Augustus 1979 en

weer van 1993 tot hede as prokureur prakti-

seer het.

Louw was ook burgemeester van Durban-

ville vir n periode van vyf jaar van 1967 tot

1972, waarna sy politieke loopbaan ontwik-

kel het tot hy as administrateur van die

Kaapprovinsie van 1979 tot 1989 aangestel is

die jongste administrateur in die geskiede-

nis van Kaapland.

Hy was ook kabinetsminister van 1 Julie

1989 tot 31 Maart 1993. Louw was ook onder

meer voorsitter van die destydse Kruik van

1982 tot 1988, beskermheer of ere-visepresi-

dent van ongeveer 40 sportliggame en ge-

meenskaps- en diensorganisasies.

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

I

t doesnt matter that I am

deaf. This is who I am and

I am proud of being able to

show others that we are just as ca-

pable as any other person, says

Jean-Claude Smit from Kraaifon-

tein.

This 17-year-old smashed bound-

arieswhenhewas recently elected,

with amajority vote, as the first ev-

er disabled person to be none other

than Speaker of theChildrens Par-

liament.

And itwasprecisely this courage

and leadership skills that prompt-

edhis deputyprincipal at theDeLa

Bat School for the Deaf in Worces-

ter to nominate him to this pro-

gramme.

The fifth annualNelsonMandela

Childrens Parliament congregat-

ed in the Free State Legislature

from 5 to 7October to tackle a num-

ber of serious issues pertaining to

the protection of children.

Those included forced childmar-

riages, the death of young boys in

initiation schools, and girls due to

illegal abortions, as well as vio-

lence in schools.

Huge step for deaf people

For Jean-Claude, this was the

ideal opportunity to correct mis-

conceptions the public have about

deaf people.

Being deaf and having deaf par-

ents, this is really a huge step for-

ward for me as well as other deaf

people, especially deaf kids who

now know anything is possible. In

South Africa many people view

deafness as an illness and some-

thing that needs to be fixed. But

now I can stand up and say this is

not true. As a deaf person I have

many opportunities and

can participate in many

things. I am not afraid to

show that I can do any-

thing, he says.

He describes the Chil-

drens Parliament as an

amazing opportunity for

children to learn what gov-

ernance is all about.

During these few days

we participated in several

commissions and identified

many problems within our

schools. Kids from all the

provinceswere represented

and it was enlightening to

see that communities all

over the country are afflict-

ed by similar problems.

Drug abuse, teenage preg-

nancies and gangsterism

are plaguing our youth and

Iwould like to see the adults

at parliament take us as

children seriously, he

says.

The issues discussed over

the two-day session were

drawn up into a declaration

and signed and Jean-Claude

is quick to add that this dec-

laration should not just be

seen as a piece of paper, and

that it was drawn up for a

reason.

The Childrens Parlia-

ment is a key programme of

Social Development Month

(October), hosted by the De-

partment of Social Develop-

ment to provide a platform

for children to participate

in democracy to be seen

and heard, explains Lumka Oliph-

ant, spokesperson of the depart-

ment.

And Jean-Claude is adamant

that these rights be obligated.

I believe that change startswith

us, the youth of South Africa. It

will not help if we sit back andwait

for others to do the work. All of us

should work together towards the

same goal, no matter who

you are,where you live or

what language you

speak, he says.

I might be deaf, but not

dumb

He also said he wanted

to focus on helping chil-

dren who face challenges

at home.

Many children are ex-

posed to bad things in

their homes, like abuse

and parents who abuse

drugs and alcohol. These

children then bring their

experiences to school

leading to bullying, peer

pressure and the forma-

tion of gangs in schools.

We therefore need to find

ways to improve the

home environment be-

cause that is where most

problems start.

Lumka says the out-

come of the Childrens

Parliament will now be

incorporated into ongo-

ing planning for the ad-

vancement of childrens

rights.

In his free time, Jean-

Claude loves playing

sports such as swimming

and golf and like any oth-

er kid his age, he also

loves technology.

I think it is important

for deaf kids to be able to

use technology. We are

normal like any other

person, but because hear-

ing people cannot communicate

with us, some think we are deaf

and dumb. We can read and write

other languages and we can speak

with our hands!

ma van n reeks praatjies oor

In ons gejaagde, oorvol en stres-

volle lewens is dit n reuse-uitda-

ging om jou grense te bepaal en die

nodige balans te vind, sodat die le-

we nie oor jou hardloop en jy gees-

telik, emosioneel en fisiek uit-

brand nie, het ds. Gys van Schoor

van die NG Kerk Durbanville, wat

die reeks gesprekke gaan aanbied,

ges. Insette gaan ook gelewer

word deur dr. George Roux, n siel-

kundige, en dr. Martin de Villiers,

n mediese dokter. In die loop van

die Sondagaande op 1, 8, 15 en 22

November gaan hulle na stres en

uitbranding kyk vanuit spirituele,

sielkundige enmedieseperspektie-

we. Die gesprekke begin 18:30 in

die kerkgebou op die hoek van

Kerkstraat en Weyerslaan in Dur-

banville. Dit is gratis, maar n

deurkollekte sal opgeneem word.

D

eur broodbome in tuine aan

te plant word hul voortbe-

staan verseker en daarom

hou die Wes-Kaapse tak van die

Broodboomvereniging van Suid-

Afrika jaarliks n ope dag.

Vanjaar sal dit op Saterdag 24

Oktober in Stellenberg plaasvind.

Die doel van die vereniging is die

kweek en vermeerdering, die ver-

spreiding van inligting en die be-

waring van veral die Suid-Afri-

kaanse broodbome.

Al die spesies word beskerm en

om een te besit word n permit ver-

eis. Sommige spesies het reeds in

die natuur verdwyn en ander is op

die rand van uitwissing, s Johan

Kotze, woordvoerder van die ver-

eniging.

Tuingeesdriftiges wat broodbo-

me aanplant, speel dus n groot rol

in bewaring.

Die verskeidenheid spesies wat

vanjaar te koop aangebied word, is

besonder indrukwekkend en die

meeste van die inheemse spesies is

beskikbaar. Skaars bloublaarplan-

te soos Enc. Dolemiticus word aan-

gebied endie lysvanskaars spesies

sluit verder in Cerinus, Numbi-

montanis, Eugene Marais, Dyeria-

nus en Cupidus.

Die publiek het dus hier werk-

lik die geleentheid om baie skaars

plante teen uiters billike pryse op

n wettige manier te bekom. Deur

broodbome in tuine aan te plant

word hul voortbestaan verseker.

Om verskeie redes word die

voortbestaan van broodbome in

die natuur bedreig, onder meer

deur versamelaars wat plante on-

wettig uit die natuur verwyder, s

hy.

Die dag bied uitstekende geleent-

heid aan tuiskwekers om deel te

wees van n georganiseerde plant-

verkope.

Nie net lede van die broodboom-

vereniging neem deel aan die ver-

koping nie. Enige tuiskweker van

enige ander plante kan en is wel-

kom om ook plante te verkoop.

Toegang tot die verkoopperseel

is gratis. Lede van die vereniging

word toegelaat om plante teen 5%

van hul omset te verkoop. Nie-lede

is verplig om 10% van hul omset

aan die vereniging te betaal.

Broodbome word streng volgens

wet beskerm en beheer. Slegs per-

mithouers met die nodige doku-

mentasie in plek sal toegelaatword

om broodbome te verkoop.

Die ope dagword gehou by n pri-

vate tuin in Panoramarylaan 107,

Stellenberg, Durbanville.

Daar sal ook n broodboomuit-

stalling gehou word. Die publiek

kan hier die geleentheid kry om by

die vereniging aan te sluit. Die ver-

kope begin om 9:00 tot 15:00.

The Family Mediators Associa-

tion of the Cape (Famac) is offering

a free mediation week from 26 to

30 October.

Divorcing and separating cou-

ples often want to avoid contested

court proceeding, but in the

strained circumstances it is often

impossible for the couple to work

things out on their own.

A cheaper alternative to consid-

er is mediation.

It is usually much quicker,

cheaper and less stressful than the

legal route, and seven out of ten

people are able to reach full agree-

ment. During freemediationweek,

a family mediation session can be

tried for free, whether they qualify

for legal aid or not.

The mediator will work with the

couple to reduce conflict by help-

ing them consider the issues to be

settled and the options available to

them to facilitate an agreement.

They help couples work towards

financial settlements and focus on

the needs of the children, encour-

aging parental cooperation wher-

ever possible.

Workout, blankets and awedding

Teams fighting off wrestlers.

DESIRE RORKE

@dezzierorke

A

gym workout in Brackenfell,

washing blankets in Bloek-

ombos and arranging tables

for awedding inBellvillewereonly

a few of the tasks teamshad to com-

plete in a recent charity race.

Dubbed the Amazing GRace and

similar in format to the actual tele-

vision show, the objectives of this

race were quite different to en-

gage with communities and non-

profit organisations, while doing

some good and having fun.

Hosted for the third time this

year by local NPO HewLin Com-

passion, in collaboration with the

WesternCape Street Childrens Fo-

rum (WCSCF), of which HewLin

Compassion is a member, the race

kicked off at Willowbridge Centre

last Saturday.

Thirteen teams

The WCSF is a vibrant, high-im-

pact network that represents pro-

fessional street children organisa-

tions in the Western Cape.

Each of the 13 teams of four

members each, made up of mem-

bers of the community, had to visit

different pit-stops around the

northern suburbs of Cape Town

where they had to either render a

service or complete a challenge,

says Hewitt de Jager, co-founder of

HewLin Compassion.

After the opening ceremony,

teams had to overcome their first

obstacle at the Olympians Acade-

my in Bellville, where Wendy Bos-

se aims to introduce and promote

Olympic sport to the historically

disadvantaged youth in the West-

ern Cape as a counter measure to

gangsterism, substance abuse and

involvement in crime.

Four of their youth formed part

of the opening obstacle, where con-

testants had to run a gauntlet of

wrestlers, says De Jager.

From here teams raced to Virgin

ActiveCapeGatewhereRalphPiet-

ers and Mornay Richardson facili-

tated the second obstacle.

Contestants had to row on ma-

chines, score goals and skip ropes

in order to advance, says De Ja-

ger.

This obstacle was designed to

promote the TLC Network, by

which Lorna Rutter empowers and

trains children in impoverished

communities.

In Bloekombos we visited the

Siviwe Crche, where different

tasks were divided amongst the 13

teams. These included washing

andcleaningblankets, floors,walls

and windows, he says.

At Shonaquip, an organisation

committed to improving the quali-

ty of life of children living with se-

vere disabilities by designing,

manufacturing and supplying mo-

bility and postural support equip-

ment, contestants had to assemble

stimulation kits for this organisa-

tion.

Cleaning the streets

From here the teams visited Ons

Plek, a shelter for girls in Cape

Town, where they handed out fly-

ers to the public and then joined

the VRCIDwhere they had to clean

the streets.

The VRCID aims to create and

maintain a clean and safe urban

environment along the Voortrek-

ker Road Corri-

dor, says De Ja-

ger.

Drivers of each

team received

waste bags and

gloves, and had to clean allocated

areas in Bellvillewhile their teams

raced toward them using public

transport (taxis) from Woodstock

to Bellville.

Promoting the activities of

MES, teams had to sell MES meal

booklets anywhere in the northern

suburbs and return with the mon-

ey, says De Jager.

MES is a non-profit organisation

that has served the homeless and

destitute community of inner cit-

ies in South Africa 1986.

The race culminated at the Col-

lective Arts Theatre (CAT) in Bell-

ville, where teams had to prepare

the wedding venue for a couple

about to tie theknot that afternoon,

unbeknownst to the unsuspecting

team members.

Theatre for the people

This theatre offers a platform

for up and coming artists to show-

case their work, says De Jager.

Manager Gavin Wright, artist,

actor and also stage designer and

team director on the day, says his

goal with the theatre is to offer a

venue to local artists to practice

their acting skills. Helping to cre-

ate the wedding venue was an

added bonus.

When I took on the CAT

project, the most important thing

to me besides the renovations that

had tobedone,was tobeable to cre-

ate a space within which the bud-

dingamateur acting society ofBell-

ville and surrounds can flourish.

Currently it is mostly very expen-

sive for them to train elsewhere,

and my hope is that the CAT will

becomeanartistic home for them,

he said.

A huge success

De Jager says this years GRace

was a huge success in terms of

reaching its core objectives.

The community that took part

had the opportunity to be exposed

to a world they are not familiar

with. More importantly they

learned that the work done every

day by all these organisations is

part of a greater strategy, which is

compromised when members of

the public, in sheer ignorance, but

with good intentions, assist street

people. If you want to help, rather

get involved as a volunteer in any

of these organisations.

At the last pit stop, blushing bride Michelle Linnert married her beau Heinrich Jansen.
