@richardjohn_rj

Die moontlikheid dat die meer as 100 in-woners by die Geneva House-skuilingin Stratford, Eersterivier sal moet

trek, is hoogs waarskynlik.Die bestuur en inwoners is verledemaand

aangesê om op te pak ná ’n uitsettingsbevelophulle bedien is deur dieWes-Kaapse hoog-geregshof namens die provinsiale ministervan vervoer en openbare werke.Die bestuur word van kontrakbreuk be-

skuldig.

Die Geneva House in Stratford-rylaan ismeer as 10 jaar gelede deur Geneva Claasen(67) gestig. Claasen het onlangs gesê sy saltrek, solank daar net ’n alternatiewe blyplekvir die kwesbare vroue en kinders – meestalhaweloses of slagoffers van mishandeling –gereël word.Claasen en tweeander inwoners is tansbe-

sig om die uitsettingsbevel teen te staan enhet tweeweke gelede ’n prokureur aangestelom hulle by te staan.Die gebou met sy 31 kamers, waskamers,

saal en kleuterskool is die eiendom van dieWes-Kaapse departement van vervoer en

Sy het by die skuiling beland nadat sy ’ndrankprobleem ontwikkel het en ’n anderpersoon aangerand het.Volgens Ferreira het sy geen ander fami-

lie of vriende by wie sy om hulp kan aan-klop nie. Ferreira het jare gelede van Wil-lowmore in die Oos-Kaap na Kaapstad ver-huis op soeknawerk. Inhaar geboortedorptwyfel sy egter of daar nog enige familiele-de oor is by wie sy kan gaan intrek.Claasen het in ’n onlangse onderhoud ge-

sê haar ergste bekommernis is die vroueen kinders, die gestremdes en swak bejaar-des. “Baie van die kinders en mense is erggetraumatiseer,” sê sy.La Hoe sê die departement van maat-

skaplike werke sal kwesbare individuewat maatskaplike dienste benodig, by-staan.

Plato se inisiatief skop afRICHARD ROBERTS

@richardjohn_rj

Dan Plato, Wes-Kaapse minister vangemeenskapsveiligheid, het gister-oggend amptelik sy departement se

inisiatief, Walking Bus, in Wesbank be-kendgestel.Die Walking Bus behels ’n groep ouers

wat daagliks – soggens en smiddae – kin-ders veilig na skole en terug na hul huisevergesel.“Die inisiatief se doel is om daagliks ’n

veilige roete, waaroor ouers toesig hou,vir leerders te skep,” sê Ewald Botha, Pla-to se woordvoerder.Hy sê die toegewydheid en betrokken-

heid van die gemeenskap speel ’n belang-rike rol in die inisiatiefwat help om ’n vei-liger omgewing vir kinders te skep.“Die ouers is die ‘bestuurders’ van die

Walking Bus wat deur plaaslike buurt-wagte, die gemeenskapspolisiëringsfo-rum, skole en die plaaslike wyksraadslid,sowel as die departement van gemeen-skapsveiligheid, ondersteun word om so-doende leerders na en vanaf skole te be-skerm,” sê Botha.Die inisiatief is gisteroggend by die Pri-

mêre Skool Hoofweg gehou.Sowat 50 ouers sal vir eers aan die pro-

jek deel hê en saam met die departementwerk om minstens 300 leerders te be-skerm, sê Botha.Edith van Wyk, projekkoördineerder,

het vroeër aan TygerBurger gesê die ideerondom die Walking Bus is om tussen vyftot tien kinders in ’n groep te kry, wat dansoggens en smiddae deur ’n volwasseneheen en weer vergesel word.Werklose ouers wat belangstel, is aan-

gemoedig om by die departement te re-

gistreer. Die ouers sal voorts as vrywilli-gers ingespan word en ’n positiewe by-drae kan lewer in die gemeenskap, sê VanWyk. Daar is ook ’n geldelike toelae watdie departement aan die ouers sal besorg,sê Van Wyk.Plato was ook onlangs in die geweldge-

teisterde gebied om aan ’n optog teenmis-daad en bendegeweld deel te neem.Die optog is gereël deur die St. Savours

Pentecostal Assembly of God, ’n nie-wins-gewende organisasie. Die optog is op Son-dag 23 April gehou.“Ons as kerk voel dat ons gemeenskap

net vir sy bende-aktiwiteite geken word,maar mense vergeet soms die goeie dingewat ook hier plaasvind. Daar is hope ta-lent indie gebied enas onsnadie volgendegeslag omsien, sal ons ’n verskil in die ge-meenskap kan maak,” sê Grandville Jor-daan, ’n gemeentelid.

Dan Plato, Wes­Kaapse minister van gemeenskapsveiligheid, lei ’ngroep kinders oor ’n voetoorgang in Wesbank Dinsdagoggend kortvoor die klok gelui het.

RICHARD ROBERTS@richardjohn_rj

Die nie-regeringsorganisasie Oog op dieKind in Kleinvlei sê hy vrees dat ’n ver-meende kinderverkragter op borgtog vryge-laat sal word.Sou die verdagte, ’n werknemer by die

Universiteit van die Wes-Kaapland, vryge-laat word, mag hy dalk sy dade herhaal, sêdie organisasie.Die ondersoekbeampte, ao. Izak Gordon,

sê die man se borgaansoek is verlede Don-derdag 28 April by die Blue Downs-land-droshof tydens sy laaste verskyning egtergeopponeer. Die saak is uitgestel totWoens-dag 1 Junie wanneer die 48-jarige man salverskyn vir ’n streekhofdatum.Adv. ShameemaLakay, regsverteenwoor-

diger van die beskuldigde, het by ’n vorigeverskyning die redes uiteengesit hoekom

haar kliënt op borgtog vrygelaatmoetword.Dit sluit in dat hy ’n vaste woonadres het,

’n werk het, nie ’n vlugrisiko is nie en dathy geen vorige oortredings of uitstaandelasbriewe teen hom het nie.Magdaleen September, voorsitter by Oog

op die Kind, sê hul bekommernis – sou dieman op borg vrygelaat word – is dat die ver-dagte die seuns weer sal lok. “Hy het dit glooor ’n tydperk gedoen. Ons bekommernis isdat sou hy uitkom, hy dit weer kan doen –al gaan bly hy elders,” sê September.Altesaam agt seuns tussen die ouderdom-

me van 8 en 13 jaar is glo deur die man aan-gerand. Die verdagte, wie se naam nog niebekend gemaak kan word nie, staar 18 klag-tes in die gesig. Dit sluit in verkragting, sek-suele aanranding en seksuele uitbuiting.“Hy het glo vir hulle geskenke gegee en

klere gekoop. Dis ’n lokmiddel vir hullewant hul ouers kan dit nie bekostig nie,” sê

September.Oog op die Kind het ’n petisie opgestel om

hul misnoeë oor die man se wandade uit tespreek. “Ons sal voortgaan om elke hofver-skyning by te woon en ons teenwoordigheidte wys.”September sê sy glo dat die wet sy gang

moet gaan, maar dat die hof ’n verantwoor-delikheid het om die kinders te beskerm,sou borgtog toegestaan word. “Die hof salmoet seker maak dat hy nie kontak maakmet die seuns nie,” sê September.Oog op die Kind is in 2000 in Kleinvlei op

die been gebring en werk onder die vaandelvan kinderwelsyn in Stellenbosch.“Diewelsynskantore in ons gebiedemaak

vroeg toe, en na-uurs is daar nie ’n diens omdie mense te help nie.“Dis waarom ons gestig is, omdat daar ’n

behoefte na-uurs en oor naweke in die ge-bied is,” vertel September.

An eyesore and a dangerRICHARD ROBERTS

@richardjohn_rj

Half-built or incomplete houses inKuils River are not just an eyesore,but a danger to the residents in the

street and the entire community as well.These are some of the sentiments neigh-

bourhood watch structures shared at a re-cent sector meeting where issues like theseare often raised.The matter has also been at the top of the

agenda at several local community policingforum meetings held.Several unkept or abandoned houses in

theRouxville area especially, are a concern.TygerBurger visited some of them recent-

ly where it was obvious that vagrants usethe problem buildings as a shelter, or insome instances also as hide-outs.Ben Small, chairperson of the Amandel

andSurroundsCrimeWatch, has laid sever-al complaints regarding the houses, somelocated in Piet Fransman, Boekenhout,Broodboom and Breekhout Street respec-tively.Complaints have been directed to the City

of Cape Town since February this year, hesaid.Asked about his reasons for the com-

plaints, Small said: “The house in Breek-hout Street is a health risk due to faeces,urine and other smells noticeable at thepremises. There is also a risk of criminalshiding there. It is very difficult to catchthem as there is an easy escape route overthe back wall.”The house in Piet Fransman Street, an-

other long-time concern, has been under de-velopment for some time now, he added.“When there is no work in progress it is

used as a sleeping spot for vagrants. Wehave evidence of at least one occasionwhereconvicted thieves were hiding there. Thepremises are not maintained at all.“I am sure that the unfinished houses

must have an affect on the value of sur-rounding properties,” Small explained.He added that these two buildings, along

with the others, pose a danger to the com-munity.“They are potential hiding spots for crim-

inals like robbers and hijackers and others.Theuseof drugs inside thesepremises isnotexcluded and can result in assaults on resi-dents.“Weexperience robberies of cellphones in

the areas, and although there is no evidence

to connect the incidents to these houses, thepossibility is not excluded,” Small said.Ward councillor Jacob Jacobs said in a re-

cent interview getting hold of the homeown-

ers proves to be somewhat difficult.He said the owners were ultimately the

ones responsible for the activities takingplace at the building.

This half­built house in Broodboom Street is also one of the buildings used by vagrants as ashelter.

This abandoned house in Breekhout Street has been an eyesore for many years now, neighbour­hood watch members say. PHOTOS: RICHARD ROBERTS

Eerste River break-dancer or B-BoyBrandon “The Curse” Petersen justscooped the top prize in a national

dance competition, securing his spot forthe finals in Asia.Brandon, a resident of Blue Downs in

Eerste River, outperformed 15 other skilfulB-Boys at the annual Red Bull BC OneSouth Africa dance competition – takinghome the title for a third time.The young and determined artist now

has to pack his bags for Nagoya, Japan,where the Red Bull BC One World Finalswill be held, organisers say.In a one-on-one interview with Tyger-

Burger at his house in Vernon Street, Tus-cany Glen, last year, the 28-year-old saidhis love for break-dancing started at ayoung age.

Learned from other artistsBrandon, who started break-dancing at

high school, said he was inspired by manylocal hip hop greats including BlackNoise,Prophets of the City and Brasse vannieKaap – artists with whom he had the privi-lege to work.“These guys made it possible for us to be

where we are today.“Being involved with them definitely

helped me with my performance. It taughtme stage presence andhow to interactwithcrowds, breathing techniques and so on,”he said.This weekend hewowed crowdswith his

performance at the Cape Town Stadium onSaturday night where the event was held.In the final round Brandon came up

against Johannesburg B-Boy Alkebulan.“This marks the third year the talented

B-Boy has proven himself the best of thebest after winning in 2012 and 2015, show-ing that it’s one thing to be named nationalchampion, but it’s even sweeter to win thecrown three times,” said Red Bull spokes-person Deborah Siyaya.

Overwhelming experience“This year he successfully defended his

title in his home town in front of a 1 500sold-out crowd.”Brandon said the experience was over-

whelming.“The competition was really tight and

it’s amazing to seehowonpoint all the guyswere.”The win has secured The Curse a spot at

the world finals in Japan where he willnow represent South Africa against a fieldof international B-Boys.“I really don’t know what to expect, but

I’m planning to work my hardest to proveto the world that South Africa really doeshave the best in dance,” Brandon said.

Local B­Boy scoops title again

Brandon “The Curse” Peterson, a B­Boyfrom Tuscany Glen in Blue Downs,

performs a well­known break­dancestyle called the turtle at this weekend’sRed Bull BC One South Africa competi­

tion where he scored the top prize onceagain. The competition was held at theCape Town Stadium on Saturday night

where Brandon competed against 15other break­dancers. He won the

competition – a third time since 2012 –and is now on his way to present South

Africa at the international competitionwhich will be held in Japan. PHOTO:

Shock over localchild porn arrestMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

An international investigation into a childpornography distributor sent shock wavesthrough Melkbosstrand last week when a34-year-old man was arrested in the seasidesuburb.The high-level investigation included of-

ficers from the United States of America’sdepartment of homeland security.In an interview with TygerBurger, Melk-

bosstrand police revealed the man lives inAtlantis but works in Melkbosstrand andhis arrest follows that of a security officerin Parow in November last year.The investigation was headed by Ser-

geant Delene Grobler from the provincialhead office of the Family Violence, ChildProtection and Sexual Offences (FCS) unitin Gauteng.Police spokesper-

son Constable Deb-bie Alard says Grob-ler andher teamexe-cuted the arrest onTuesday 26 April at14:30 at the man’splace of work inMelkbosstrand.Alard says the

man is on a list of top 25 wanted child por-nography suspects and his arrests followedthat of his accomplice from Parow late lastyear.“Both of them were on this list and these

two men were sharing the pornography.Theywere sharing the unsuitable images ofchildren between each other. The childrendiffer in ages,” says Alard.“There are still numerous arrests out-

standing linked to this operation called Op-eration Simon.”Themanwas charged for being in posses-

sion and distribution of child pornographyand appeared in the Atlantis Magistrate’sCourt on Thursday 28 April.

TygerBurger broke the story on its Face-book page shortly before his court appear-ance last week and the post sent tongueswagging.In the Melkbosstranders Facebook group

many residents congratulated police ontheir arrest.“This is great.“Now into jail with this pond scum and

let the prisoners sort them out. Sick bas-tards,” one resident wrote.On TygerBurger’s Facebook page, a read-

er wrote: “Such sick people must be namedand shamed! Thanks everybody involved inmaking the arrests. DearGod please protectour little ones; they can’t protect them-selves”.The man, however, cannot be legally

named until he appears in court.The successful arrest was however short

lived when police revealed the man hadbeen released on R3000bail and was set to ap-pear in court on Friday10 June.According to the Na-

tional Register for SexOffenders, any personwho is found guilty ofexposing children topornography or creates

child pornography is listed in the register.The register states that according to the

law all organisations working with chil-dren and mentally disabled persons are re-quired to take steps to prevent workerswhose names appear on the register fromworkingwith children ormentally disabledindividuals. In addition, offenders whohave been listed on the register are not al-lowed to apply for foster care or adoption.According to the register and the Crimi-

nal Procedure Act, when seeking a job anemployee is required to tell the employer ofthe court ruling against them.For more information on the register vis-

it www.saps.gov.za.

Hoërskoolleerders en volwasseneskry vanjaar vir die eerste keer ’ngeleentheid om saam aan ’n Afri-

kaanse gedigtekompetisie van die ATKVen die tydskrif Kuier deel te neem.Die kompetisie was die afgelope sewe

jaar slegs vir leerders, maar volgens Ja-pie Gouws, die uitvoerende hoof van dieATKV, was daar nog altyd ’n aanvraagvan volwassenes, wat ook ’n platform ge-soek het om hul eie gedigte te publiseer.“Die gedigtekompetisie was ook ge-

wild omdat daar ’n groot behoefte ondertieners is omuiting te gee aanhul drome,emosies en bepaalde kwessies in gedigte.“Dit het in die verlede aan duisende as-

pirantdigters die platform gebied om ge-digte te skryf en te publiseer,” sê Gouws.Maar nou vat die ATKV en Kuier dit

’n treeverder.Hullenooi ookalle volwas-senes uit om ’n Afrikaanse gedig in teskryf enmoontlik in die proses vet pryselos te slaan. Die wenner van die hoër-skool-kategorie wen R3 000 in kontant,

terwyl dié in die tweede en derde plekkeonderskeidelik R2 000 en R1 000 kry.In die volwasse kategorie is R5 000 vir

die skrywervandiewengedig opdie spel.Die tweede en derde plek se wenners kryonderskeidelik R4 000 en R3 000.Inskrywings kan in enige variant van

Afrikaans wees. Volgens Kay Karriem,Kuier se redakteur, is daar ook besluitom vanjaar ’n video van die beste algehe-le gedig te vervaardig. “Met die videowilons graag lewe gee aan die woorde op pa-pier en ’n gedigtekompetisie is ’n idealeplatform vir mense om in Afrikaans tesê wat in hul harte is.” Die beoordelaarsgaan dus ook besluit wie van die volwas-se of hoërskoolwenner die beste oor-spronklike gedig geskryf het,waarnaHe-melbesem, bekendekunstenaar enPasel-la-aanbieder, dié gedig op ’n video gaanvertolk. Inskrywings sluit op Dinsdag 31Mei. E-pos jou inskrywings na [email protected] met ATKV-gedigtekom-petisie in die onderwerplyn.

Op 23 jaar het Chanchea Welkom vanHappy Valley, wat aan bipolêre ge-moedsversteuring ly, al talle kere by

die dood omgedraai.Chanchea was net ’n tiener en ’n gr.10-

leerder toe dinge in haar lewe begin veran-der het. Niemand het verstaan wat aan-gaan nie, sy self ook nie.Vandag – ná ’n wipplank-tienerlewe – is

sy ’n sprankelende jong volwassene, ie-mandvol lewewat elkeuitdagingmet deur-settingsvermoë aanpak.“Ek kom uit ’n baie arm agtergrond. My

ma het my alleen grootgemaak,” sê sy.Sy beskryf haarself as ’n oop persoon, ’n

liefdevolle mens en iemand uniek.Ná haar matriekjaar het sy op haar ont-

werper-loopbaan begin fokus. Sy het ookvoortdurend gedigte geskryf – sielsdiepegedigte oor wat sy in die lewe deurgemaakhet, vertel sy.

Studeer danksy beursChanchea studeer nou om ’n basiese am-

bulans-assistent te word danksy ’n beursdeur haarma, Doreen, se werkgewer, NiallMellons, eienaarvandieMellonsFoundati-on. “Ekhet aansoekgedoenvir borge,maardit nie gekry nie. Ek kan self ook nie diestudiekoste dek nie.“Hy (Niall) het ’n baie groot impak opmy

lewe gehad en doen dit nog steeds,” sê sy.Voor dié seëninge was die lewe vir haar

moeilik. Chanchea het al probeer om self-moord te pleeg deur ’n oordosis pille tedrink en deur haarself met ’n mes te sny.“Ek was ’n normale persoon, maar in

graad 10 het ek stemme begin hoor.“My emosionele toestand het verander.

Ek het begin skreeu en huil enmyma-hullehet nie geweet wat om te maak nie,” vertelsy.Sy het ’n sielkundige gaan sien.“In 2011 het ek ’n breakdown gehad. Ek

was baie suicidal en wou net sterf.“Ek het elke dag daaraan gedink,” sê sy.Dis toe dat sy haarself begin sny en pille

begin drink het.“Ek kon nie my matriekjaar voltooi nie.“Ekmoes hospitaal toe ... dit was ’nuphill

battle.”Chanchea kon vir ’n ruk nie praat nie. Sy

kon in ’n stadium ook nie eens uit die bedklim nie, onthou sy.“By Tygerberg-hospitaal het hulle vasge-

stel wat fout is en medikasie voorgeskryf,”sê sy.Chanchea het berading ontvang en geleer

hoe om die siekte te hanteer.“Dit was ’n hartseertyd in my lewe; dit

was dreinerend. Een dag is ek een persoon,die volgende dag is ek iemand anders.”Chanchea sê die tyd van haar lewe was

bitter moeilik – in ’n stadium het dit virhaar gevoel of sy op haar laaste is.“Ek het moed opgegee, maar my ma was

my steunpilaar. My familie het nie altydverstaan nie, maar my ma het altyd gesê syis lief vir my en sy is daar vir my.“As dit nie vir haar was nie, sou ek nie

so gesond geword het nie,” sê Chanchea

glimlaggend.Vir haar jonger broer en ouer suster was

dit ook moeilik om ’n begrip vir haar toe-stand te hê.“Hulle is oukei daarmee, maar soms ver-

staan hulle nie. Dan herinner my ma hullenet weer.”

Wil sienswyswe veranderChanchea wil nou deur middel van haar

ontwerpersloopbaan, haar skryfwerk enstudies mense se sienswyse oor die siekteverander.“Baie mense praat nie oor hul toestand

nie. Daar is ’n stigma oor bipolêre lyers,maar mense moet begin praat daaroor.“Hulle moet leer om sulke mense te aan-

vaar en te ondersteun. Praat oor bipolêregemoedsversteuring; dis nie ’n curse nie endit gaan nie weg nie.“God het jou nie eenkant gegooi nie ... jy

moet net leer om dit te hanteer,” sê Chan-chea oor die siekte,wat sy as die stillemoor-denaar beskryf.Sy wil ook ’n organisasie, Bipolar and

Seek, aan die gang kry om mense te onder-steun, hulle leer hoe om die siekte te han-teer en ook omdialoog daaroor aan die gangte sit.“As jy nie daaroor gaan praat nie, gaan

jy net terugval in daai donker gat en komjy nie daaruit nie. Ek weet, want ek wasself daar,” sê die toegewyde entrepreneurmet ’n glimlag.

Bipolêre lyer reiknou na die sterre

Chanchea Welkom van Happy Valley ly aanbipolêre gemoedsversteuring. Dit is egter ietswat haar nie terughou nie, maar iets wat sytot haar voordeel inspan. Sy is besig om testudeer vir ’n ambulans­assistent en beoog om’n organisasie te begin om ander soos sy tehelp en te ondersteun. FOTO: RICHARD ROBERTS

Riverton Estate residents joined in a fun-filled day at a local park as the residents’ as-sociation unveiled their outdoor giant chessboard.The construction of the giant board was

solely sponsored by the residents of RivertonEstate, while the construction was done bythe men and the youth of the community.SteveRoss, chairperson of the RivertonEs-

tate Residents’ Association (Rera), says theyhave also purchased the giant chess set forvisitors to the park to enjoy a free game overweekends and during school holidays.“The occasion was filled with fun activi-

ties, including the children of theBishopsLa-vis Cadets, who performed a march throughthe community to entice residents to comealong,” he says. Various guest speakers ap-plauded Rera and spoke highly of the value

such an initiative has in uplifting, unitingand even securing the area as residents aretaking ownership of the area.Mark Lewis, president of Western Cape

Chess, pledged five sets of chess boards insupport of the anticipated launch of the Riv-erton Chess Academy.Ross indicated that the chess pieces will be

available on request over weekends and pub-lic holidays for families to enjoy freely.“We want to thank the City of Cape Town

for their support in the development of thepark, as they supplied and placed trees andbenches,” Ross says.Ward councillor Clive Justus congratulat-

ed Rera for the initiative and expressed theimportance of owning and protecting one’sneighbourhood.V Rera is still in need of office furniture and equipmentfor their newly acquired office. If you can assist in anymanner, please contact Ross on 081 389 8026 orsend an email to [email protected].

Karate empowersyoung childrenASTRID FEBRUARIE

@febastrid

In an effort to empower children in Bell-ville through an extramural activity,Ka-rate-Zen Bishop Lavis have expanded

their services to Boston Private School.Sensei Eddie du Plessis has been training

and teaching for over 40 years since the es-tablishment of the do-ju in Bishop Lavis in1982.“This sport is something that has taught

me patience and discipline and I want to in-stil this in the youth I teach,” he says.Du Plessis says as Boston Private School

does not offer a wide range of extra muralactivities, he was approached by his daugh-ter-in-law to offer his services to the school.“I have grandchildren who attend the

school and I thought it would be a great op-portunity to get involved in the school andtomake apositive impact – not only on theirlives, but on their classmates too,” he says.Du Plessis says through his classes he

wishes to not only empower children andteach them how to protect themselves andtheir families if they do find themselves ina tough situation, but also to teach themhow to better react in different situations

presented to them.“We live in a tough world and some chil-

dren grow up in communities where theyare facedwithdrugs, gangsterismandotherforms of crime and abuse. Through theclasses I want to teach them how to betterreact to certain situations and how to bettercontrol their frustrations andemotions,” hesays.Du Plessis has about 24 children from

the school signed up and hopes more willjoin.“I have more and more parents making

contact with me wanting to know if theirchildren can join the classes. It is excitingto see how these children develop throughthe classes,” he says.He currently teaches twice a week at Bos-

ton Private School from 14:45 on Tuesdaysand Fridays at 13:15. Each class runs forabout an hour.Du Plessis also teaches classes at the

Bishop Lavis branch from 17:30 on Tues-days and 17:010 on Thursdays.“The classes are also open to parents or

anyone interested in joining the club,” hesays.V For more information or if you would like to jointhe club, contact Du Plessis on 021 839 4693.

Ons wil almal op Moedersdag ons ma’sspesiaal laat voel, maar soms is ditmoeilik om te wys presies hoe lief jy

haar het en hoe baie jy haar waardeer. Hieris ’n paar wenke hoe om die dag onvergeetlikte maak.

1. Ontbyt in die bedBegin die dag op die regte noot. Berei ’n heer-like Moedersdagontbyt voor en neem dit virMa op ’n skinkbord terwyl sy nog snoesig indie bed lê. Sit ’n blommetjie uit die tuin by omdit nog meer spesiaal te maak.

2. Gee haar die dag afLaat Mams heerlik laat slaap of ontspan opdie rusbank terwyl die res van die gesin al diereëlings vir die dag tref en enige huistakiesverrig. Miskien smag sy selfs na ’n bietjie al-leentyd.Krydanalmaluit diehuis en laathaardie dag in rus en vrede geniet.

3. Vertel vir almal hoe lief jy haar hetLos ’n boodskap vir jou ma op sosiale mediawaarin jy met almal deel hoe besonders sy is.Dit mag dalk jou kubervriende irriteer, maarsal beslis jou ma geliefd laat voel.

4. Neem haar uit vir ete . . . of kook vir haarNeem jou ma na ’n restaurant waarheen synog altyd wou gaan en laat haar enigiets opdie spyskaart bestel – op jou, natuurlik.

Of kookhaar gunstelinggereg tuis.Maak ditekstra spesiaal met ’n pragtig gedekte tafelomring deur die mense vir wie sy die liefsteis.

5. Bederf haar met ’n spa-dagWat is dan nou lekkerder as om die dag in ’nsagte japon en pantoffels deur te bring terwyljy gepamperlang word? Neem Ma vir só ’nstukkie hemel op aarde.

6. Verras haar met haar gunstelingblommeHaar gunstelingblomme sal nie net jou ma sehuis en gemoed ophelder nie, maar dit sal ookvir haar baie beteken dat haar kind haar sogoed ken.

7. Gee haar iets vir die soettandKoop die duurste houer sjokolade in die win-kel en gee dit vir haar met streng aanwysingsdat sy dit met niemand mag deel nie!

8. Beplan ’n dag van gunstelingaktiwiteiteMaak seker dat die hele dag omMa draai, met’n reeks uitstappies wat al haar gunstelingak-tiwiteite insluit. Of sy nou ’n koskenner is of’n paar besoeke aan kunsgalerye en museumssal geniet, dit is háár keuse.

9. Kry al die kinders bymekaarBaie gesinne is deur tyd en afstand geskei.Maak vanjaar ’n bietjie moeite om die hele ge-sin ’n slag bymekaar te kry vir Moedersdag.Dit sal vir Mams tog te lekker wees om weeral haar kuikens in die nes te hê.

10. Sê dit hardopLos die soetsappige kaartjies in die winkel enkortaf SMSe, en vertel jou ma uit jou hart uithoe lief jy haar het en hoe baie sy vir jou bete-ken. Dit sal beslis haar dag maak!

About 600 teenagers recently participat-ed in the finals of the fourth annualCape Town Games hosted by the City

of Cape Town’s sport, recreation and ameni-ties department.The games took place at the Swartklip In-

door Centre in Mitchell’s Plain on Saturday23 April.The teenagers, aged between 13 and 18,

represented the four City districts.This year’s gameswaswon, for the second

year in a row, by District 4, which includesthe northern areas of Bonteheuwel, Sarepta,Scottsdene and Belhar.District 4 alsowon theTeamSpirit Award.City’s Mayco member for community ser-

vices and special projects, councillor Belin-da Walker, says the games are very popularand each year the competition is fierce.“The event gives youngpeople an opportu-

nity to compete against one other in a num-ber of sport and recreational events in a safeenvironment,” she says.Before the main event, the games see the

four City districts compete against each oth-er at three levels.The first is the facility level, where more

than 20 000 participants take part in thegames.About 5 000 of these participants then ad-

vance to the area level where just over 3 000participants are selected to participate atdistrict level.The final participants who advance from

the district level games then participate inthe department’s overall Cape TownGames,which usually includes approximately 640participants.The participants compete against each

other in various sporting codes and activi-ties such as table tennis, pool, dominoes,chess, Marabaraba, board games, five-a-sidesoccer, netball, Dibeke and Drie Stokkies,among others.Walker says through this event, the City

aims to encourage mass participation inboth physical and mental challenges, whileshowcasing some of the activities offered bythe various community centres and recrea-tion hubs.“The event also seeks to connect the un-

connected and affords participants the op-portunity to compete in activities they maynot otherwise have had access to,” she says.

Dr. Karin Baatjes, lid van Reik na Her-stel/Reach for Recovery se bestuurs-raad en ook borschirurg verbonde aan

die Universiteit Stellenbosch, het ’n paarmaande gelede besluit om haar twee passies– om borskankerpasiënte te help en om te

draf – te kombineer om só geld in te samelvir Reik na Herstel se Ditto-projek.

“Ek help daagliks vroue met borskankermet my hande en het nou besluit om dit ookmet my voete te doen deur aan die Weskus-marathon op 23 April deel te neem,” vertel

Karin, wat in Tygervallei woon.Sy het besluit om só geld in te sa-

mel om vroue wat mastektomiesmoes ondergaan weens borskanker.die geleentheid te gee om ’n sili-koon-borsprostese te bekom.

Sy het haar “kb for ditto”-projekvia GivenGain op Reik na Herstel sewebtuiste geregistreer, waar ledevan die publiek donasies kon maakom die projek te ondersteun.

Haar aanvanklike teiken van netR4 000 is vinnig opgestoot totR42 000. Teen die dag van die mara-thon is daar reeds R36 450 geskenk.

Karin het die marathon suksesvolvoltooi en is deur ’n groep Reik naHerstel-vrywilligers by die eind-streep verwelkom.

Mense kan nog steeds skenkingsaanlyn maak by www.reachforreco-very.org.za.

. Reik na Herstel is ’n borskan-ker-ondersteuningsorganisasie watal sedert 1967 emosionele en praktie-se ondersteuningsdienste aan bors-kankerpasiënte en hul families le-wer. Enigiemand wat ondersteu-ning verlang of belangstel om as ’nvrywilliger vir Reik na Herstel op-gelei te word, kan Stephanie van De-venter kontak by [email protected].

This was acknowledged by Cape Townmayor Patricia de Lille, recently, when acertificate of recognition was bestowed onWayde’s proud grandparents Sophia andWathen van Niekerk, who still reside inKraaifontein, Wayde’s hometown.

“As a subcouncil and City we want to ac-knowledge our residents for their achieve-ments, nationally and internationally,”said Grant Twigg, when he handed over thecertificate on behalf of De Lille and the sub-council.

“As it has been proven so many times be-fore, it is irrespective of were you were bornor where you grew up. You can achievewhatever you dream to achieve and wewant to celebrate Wayde’s accomplish-ments with him,” said Twigg.

“It is a privilege for us to be able to meetyou today and say thank you to your grand-son for the positive message he has givento the youth in Kraaifontein.”

Wathen thanked the mayor, subcounciland the entire community for supportingWayde.

The athlete made sprinting history whenhe became the first man in history to runfaster than 10 seconds for 100 metres, 20 sec-onds for 200 metres and 44 seconds for 400metres.

The Iris House Children’s Hospice hasjust received its first legacy donationfrom a kind-hearted soul who passedaway from cancer on 13 August last year.

The late Yvonne Davids died aged 66and was the great aunt of Adam Davids,an Iris House child.

Davids was fromPniel, Stellen-bosch, and an ac-tive member of theCongregationalChurch there, al-ways participatingin events and spe-cial unions, saysSue van der Linde,the hospice’sfounder and mar-keting director.

“Yvonne wasvery passionateabout children.She was the seniorheadmaster of theboys and girls bri-gade, and ballroominstructor fromher younger days,” Sue said.

“Being a selfless person, after herniece Michelle Perrins – whom she loveddearly – passed away in May 2006 of can-cer at the age of 10 years, she immediate-ly after that in July established theDwars River Valley ‘Hoping is Coping’cancer support group.

Yvonne was also a Cansa volunteerand member of the Relay Committee, Sue

says.“As with her attachment to Michelle,

she was very attached to Adam and al-ways wanted the best for him. She want-ed him, and children like him, to alwayshave the best of care by people who arepassionate about what they do where the

children are con-cerned,” Sue says.

Yvonne was nevermarried and had nochildren of her own,neither did she havemany possessions,as her focus was onher drive to help oth-ers, Sue says.

“Of the little thatshe had – a little 1992model Toyota Corol-la and a few furnish-ings and kitchenutensils – she couldonly think to leave itafter her passing tocontinue to supportthat which she wastruly passionate

about.“So, she left the proceeds of her ‘bigger’

assets to Iris House and others whom shecared dearly about,” Sue adds.

This all amounted to R16 000 whichwill be used to help the hospice continuetheir free service and community-basedcare for their special children.

“You have a special place in ourhearts.”

Hospice gets boostfrom legacy donation

Yvonne Davids left the value of her lastearthly belongings to the Iris HouseChildren’s Hospice.

Teen judoka eyes the top spotSTEHAN SCHOEMAN

Don’t be fooled by the fact that ReganWilson (18) is partially sighted – he isone of the very best judoka in the coun-

try. Full stop.Regan is the deserving winner of the Tyg-

erBurger Sport Star of the Month award.Residing in Delft, the Athlone School for

the Blind learner in Bellville South is rakingin the medals on the national judo scene.

“I started judo at the age of 11 at the schooland loved it from the word go. The adrenalinrush you get on competition days makes itvery exciting and I just love the sport,” saysRegan.

He started under the watchful eye of Lor-raine Job who is a retired 7th Dan in thesport. Now, he trains under Mike Job, whois very respected in the sport.

Just last week at the Commonwealth JudoChampionship in Port Elizabeth Regan com-peted in the partially sighted and abled bodydivisions and won gold in both in the u.55kgdivision (17 to 19 years).

“The last year or so has been good. I thinkwinning both divisions last week is probablythe highlight of my career thus far. I also

graded to my first dan black beltat the national dan grading ex-amination in December lastyear which is pretty cool aswell,” says Regan.

Judo is not the only sport inwhich this talented youngsterexcels.

In March during the annualNedbank National Champion-ship for Physical Disabled andVisually Impaired in Bloemfon-tein, Regan won gold in the 100mand 200m sprint events. Thetimes Regan ran in the sprintswas good enough to put hisname on the shortlist for the Re-gion 5 games in Angola later thisyear. During the championshipshe also won two gold medals inthe u.55 and u.60kg division inthe judo – a remarkable feat initself.

The next point of order is thenational judo championship (June) in Gaut-eng.

“I have won gold at the National JudoChampionship. I am confident in winning a

medal again, but it is not a case of just pitch-ing and expecting to win. You have to keepgrinding and work hard and treat your fel-low competitors with respect.

“In my preparation for tourna-ments I must mention my threetraining partners who help me alot. Luvuyo Mrulekana andAyanda Wolayi played a big rolein my success. We have beentraining together for nine years,and we just work well as a team.

“I also want to thankTygerBur-ger and Bosman, McNulty andDu Toit Optometrists for choos-ing me as their winner. I amhumbled and truly grateful forbeing the chosen one, it is a mas-sive honour for me,” says Regan.

He wins a pair of sunglasses ofhis choice from Bosman, McNul-ty and Du Toit Optometrists. Shi-han Hennie Bosman from theWelgemoed dojo gives him R1000and Dr Costa Kapnias gives himfree assessments at Ready Roomin Willowbridge.V To enter the TygerBurger Sport Star

of the Month competition, high school learners in theTygerBurger distribution area can mail their recentsporting achievments to [email protected].

SAREL BURGER

Die eerste rugbyspan van HS Stellenberg hetdie afgelope Saterdag ’n indrukwekkendedebuut gemaak by die jaarlikse Wildekla-wer-toernooi in Kimberley. Die Stellies wasmet 27-19 die meerdere van HS Noord-Kaap.

By die 175-jarige feesvieringe van dieSeunskool Wynberg het HS Bellville en HSTygerberg in die eerste reeks wedstryde dieafgelope naweek ook weggespring met nael-skraapse oorwinnings, maar Durbanvillehet onverwags met 22-23 vasgeval teen ParelVallei.

Tygerberg het in sy wedstryd teen HSUpington die wêreld vir homself moeilik ge-maak met talle hanteerfoute en powere be-sluitneming, maar het uiteindelik tog met17-14 deurgeskuur.

Ook Bellville moes hard werk om Walvis-baai met 21-17 onder te kry.

D.F. Malan was met 68-10 gans te sterk virdie juniors van die Hamiltons-klub.

In die eerste sarsie wedstryde van die HSOudtshoorn-toernooi het De Kuilen deeglikstem dikgemaak met sy sege van 20-10 oor

Oudtshoorn se Langenhoven Gimnasium,maar Brackenfell het 22-25 teëspoed opgetelteen HS Ben Vorster.

Die Brakke was nietemin nie juis swakkeras die Tzaneen-span nie en kon die pyp rookmet ’n bietjie meer geluk.
