KLEIN JACOBSDAL: VARKBOERE MOET PLEK MAAK VIR 4 000 LAEKOSTE­EENHEDE

Hokke word pondokkeRICHARD ROBERTS

@richardjohn_rj

Virmeeras 20 jaarnoual leef kleinboerevreedsaam op die Klein Jacobsdal-plaasgebied – ’n gebied hoofsaaklik be-

kend vir sy varkboerdery.Vir die sowat 60 kleinboere op dié meer as

200 ha grond is die leefwyse egter nou in ge-drang. Hul varkhokke sal moet plek maakvir laekostebehuisingseenhede.“Altesaam 4 000 laekoste-eenhede,” sê

wyksraadslid Bert van Dalen.Die provinsiale regering wou vandees-

week nog nie duidelikheid oor sy planne virdie grond bekendmaak nie, behalwe deur tesê dat hy begin het met beplanning vir dieontwikkeling van die grond.Vir sommiges op Klein Jacobsdal, ook be-

kend as die Penhill-kleinboere, is die nuusoor die moontlike bou van laekostebehui-sing hier egter ’n bitter pil om te sluk.Derick Blight, wat al drie jaar hier woon,

sê die nuus is nie goed nie.

Blight, wat met varke en hoenders boer,sê die grond hier is nie geskik vir behuisingnie en daar is ook nie genoeg beskikbaregrond nie.“Waarheen gaan hulle ons dan skuif?” wil

hy weet.Wat verder bydra tot die probleem is die

moontlikheid dat sowat 165 ander kleinboe-re van die sogenaamde Ithemba-kleinboerelangs Ou Faure-weg in Eersterivier ook nadie gebied verskuif gaan word. Om dié redeis daar glo reeds van die grond op Klein Ja-

cobsdal, wat nie omhein is nie, deur die pro-vinsiale regering afgebaken.“Dis ’n plaasgebied die, nie residensieel

nie.“Waar gaan hulle die huise en mense sit,”

vra Blight.Klein Jacobsdal se kleinboere word ook

nou verhoed om enige verdere grond te be-set. Mollie Ada, wat al tien jaar op die plaaswoon, is een van dié wie se grond geneemis.

Haar oorlede man, past. Graham Ada, wasdie stigterslid van ’n plaaslike komitee endaar word al meer as ’n dekade lank gevegom ’n huurooreenkoms met die provinsialedepartement van menslike huisvesting aante gaan. Die grond behoort aan laasgenoem-de, vertel sy.Muneera Allie, woordvoerder van die de-

partement, meen egter die twee partye konnie ’n ooreenkoms oor die terme en voor-waardes vir die gebruik vandie eiendombe-reik nie.

“Die departement het voorgestel dat ’ndeel van die eiendom benut word vir land-boudoeleindes waar die kleinboere geak-kommodeer sou word. Dié gebruikmoes eg-ter voorsiening maak vir die ontwikkelingvan menslike huisvesting,” sê Allie.Sy sê ook die kleinboere is bewus van die

departement se voorneme om die eiendomindie toekoms teontwikkel.Alliehet vroeërhierdie week nie veel oor die departementse planne uitgeklap nie, behalwe deur te sêdat die departement met beplanning begin

het vir die gebruik van die grond.“Sodra dit afgehandel is, sal meer beson-

derhede oor die soort ontwikkeling beskik-baar gemaak word,” sê sy.Allie kon ook nie ’n tydraam gee vir wan-

neer enige ontwikkeling sal plaasvind nie.“Ontwikkeling van ’n projek sal begin so-

dra die planne voltooi is en die hersone-ringsregte vir die stuk grond bekom is. Diekleinboere sal ook geraadpleeg word voordie finale goedkeuring van die ontwikke-lingsplan,” sê sy.

Derick Blight, ’n inwoner van die Klein Jacobsdal­plaasgebied, sê daar isnie genoeg grond beskikbaar om meer huise hier te bou nie.

Inwoners van Wesbank kon verledeweek nie té diep asemhaal nie nadatgroot hope rommel wat uit ’n stormwa-

terpyp verwyder is, net so in die gebied ag-tergelaat is.Die rommel is Vrydagoggend deur wer-

kers van die Stad Kaapstad se uitgebreideopenbare werke-program in Charlostraaten nog ander naburige strate uit die pypeverwyder.Die werkers, glo 11 van hulle, is egter

kortnadathulle aandiewerkgespringhet,deur inwoners van die gebied gevra omWesbank te verlaat – glo omdat die meer-derheid van dié werkers uit Mfuleni af-komstig was en nie uit Wesbank nie.Sally Valentine, ’n inwoner van Charlo-

straat, sê ’n pikswart hoop vullis is alvroegVrydagoggend voor haar deur agter-gelaat.“Dit stink en die kinders speel naby die

vullis,” het sy aanTygerBurger buite haarhuis vertel.Buite in die straat het ’n groepie kinders

skaars ’nmeter van die rommel af gesit enspeel, onbewusvandie gesondheidsgevarewat dit inhou.“Die afleiding wat ek kan maak, is dat

die mense verjaag is omdat hulle uit Mfu-leni kom, mense wat nie veronderstel isom hier te werk nie,” sê Valentine.Die rommel voor haar huis het Vrydag-

namiddag nog voor die huis gelê, maar isteen Maandagmiddag verwyder, sê Cyn-thia Claasen, wyksraadslid, wat self diestraat besoek het. Klein hopies vullis wasegter nog in Rowellanstraat opgemerk.Die kwessie is ook verlede week op die

gemeenskap se WhatsApp-groep, ProudlyWesbank, bespreek. Dit was duidelik datdie inwoners omgekrap is omdat werkersuit Wesbank glo nie gebruik is nie.Edith van Wyk, ’n lid van die Wesbank-

ontwikkelingsforum, sê mense uit anderwoongebiede mag nie in ’n spesifieke ge-bied werk nie, maar dat slegs werkers uitdie betrokke gemeenskap self gebruikmagword.Sy sê daar is talle inwoners wat werk-

loos is en die werk nodig het.Claasen het Maandag aangedui dat sy

meer inligting rakende die kwessie by diesubraad sal bekom.Sy het intussen bevestig dat vier uit die

groep van Wesbank is, maar dat die uit-staande sewe van Mfuleni afkomstig is.“Wesbank se vier sal later die week die

vullis opruim,” sê Claasen. Die werkersmaak vandeesweek in die gebied klaar.

Híér haal jy nie diep asem

’n Groot hoop rommel wat uit ’n stormwater­pyp verwyder is, is Vrydag net so voor ’n huisin Charlostraat, Wesbank deur die skoonma­kers agtergelaat.

Inwoners sê hulle vrees dat kinders siek sal raakas hulle met die vullis in aanraking sou kom.

A stern warning to residents not to takethe law into their own hands havebeen issued by Mfuleni police after an

unknown woman, accused of being a childkidnapper,was almost attacked by residentslast week.Fortunately for the woman the group of

residents decided to hand her over to the po-lice, says Mfuleni police spokesperson Cap-tain Nomathemba.Residents however demanded feedback

and action be taken against the woman.They stoned the satellite police office as wellas state vehicles parked outside, says Muav-ha, adding the woman was innocent.

RumoursThe incident occurred on Tuesday 14

June.“We opened a case of malicious damage to

property,” says Muavha.Rumours of potential childkidnappers are

currently doing the rounds in the Mfuleniarea as well as other parts of the city.The news is spread via social media plat-

forms such as Facebook and the online chatservice WhatsApp.In an attempt to ease the concerns of par-

ents the Mfuleni police took part in a radiointerviewwhereMuavha informed listenersthat no child kidnapping cases have yet beenreported to the police.A similar interviewwas conducted by pro-

vincial police spokesperson Lieutenant Col-onel André Traut the following day.Muavha says the police are aware of the

numerous allegations regarding child kid-nappings posted on social media, but that itis being refuted as it cannot be substantiated

with any police records.“The police appeal to the community to re-

frain from spreading these inaccurate ru-mours. We also appeal that the residents nottake the law into their own hands based onthese rumours as we will not hesitate to actagainst such people.”

Several allegationsThe police strongly encourage that par-

ents frequently sensitise their children onwhat to do when faced in a dangerous situa-tion in a responsible manner.Kleinvlei police also received several calls

regarding allegations of abductions. Onesuchallegationwas sharedviaWhatsApponWednesday last week. According to the de-tails fourmen abducted a child in the EersteRiver area.Kleinvlei police spokesperson Captain

Florina Muller could however not confirmthis.“We received several calls, but there is no

such case on our records,” she told Tyger-Burger.

No arrests“It is satisfying to know that parents are

concerned about their children’s safety.This helps the police in protecting children.“Early morning I notice parents walk

their children to school these days. The par-ents have no idea how much that actuallymeans to the child.”The only confirmedattemptedkidnapping

incident occurred on Wednesday 1 June inStrand involving a 10-year-old girl who luck-ily managed to escape from the suspects.No arrests have yet been made.

V Reports about a possible kidnapping should be reg­istered at the police station on 021 909 9538 or082 469 1529.

needs,” Little explains their depart-ment’s process of reintegration.Role players who assist them include

night shelters, joint action committees,city improvement districts, faith-basedorganisations and non-governmental or-ganisations.During subcouncil lastweek the impor-

tance of the City’s local network of care(LNOC), a community based body to helpwith the reintegration, was also pointedout. An LNOC was established in Wes-bank recently.A shelter which will be built in a cen-

tral area and is described as aplacewhichwill offer more holistic care as well as of-fer skills development to street people, isbeing planned.

Winter is upon us and the time has cometo take out the umbrellas, switch on theheaters and take out all those extra blan-kets.For the approximate 7383 people living

on the city’s streets however, taking pre-cautionary measures against the wind,cold and rain is but a mere desire – some-thing achievable depending on the gener-osity of the public.Despite the high number of street peo-

ple, however, only a few shelters existwhich can provide protection against theelements.“The City estimates that there are 20

shelters, however the Western Cape de-partment of social development will bebest placed to respond in terms of thenumber of registered facilities,” said Su-zette Little, Mayco member for social de-velopment.Last week at a subcouncil meeting rep-

resentatives of the department highlight-ed the importance of working together ina partnership to help get homeless peopleoff the streets and reintegrated back intotheir communities. The officials sharedinformation from their recently compiledstreet people’s report – a study conductedacross the metropole.Little says the research was done to de-

termine how many people were on thestreets in order to align interventions toaddress the needs of the street people ap-propriately.“The City’s reintegration unit refers

street people, who accept offers of assist-ance, to shelters or other appropriate ser-vices, depending on their individual

A brand new maintenance plan is being im-plemented by the City of Cape Town for theupkeep of its rental housing.In a statement issued last week the City

said with the implementation of its newmaintenance priority model for its largenumber of housingunits, it hopes to not onlyreward tenants, but also reduce the strainon its maintenance resources.Rental monies contribute to the upkeep of

rental units and therefore non-emergencyrepairs will no longer be rendered to illegaloccupants or defaulting tenants withoutdebt arrangements in place, the City said.The City’s maintenance priority model is

built on the recognition that, due to its largenumber of rental stock units and limited ca-pacity, not all maintenance matters can beattended to immediately.Hence, different maintenance issues have

now been categorised according to their im-portance.Emergency, structural, health, safety as

well as electrical repairs have been classi-fied as very high to high priority repairs,while medium to low priority repairs in-clude repairs of windows, ceilings, internaldoors, locks and toilet seat replacements, theCity said.“This is one of the interventions that the

City is implementing to deal with the strainon its limitedmaintenance budget and otherresources, says Mayco member for humansettlements, Benedicta van Minnen.“However, all tenants, irrespective of

whether they are in rental arrears or not,will still be assistedwith high prioritymain-tenance issues, such as emergency repairsto prevent serious risk to thehealth and safe-ty of occupants or members of the public.

“We are currently doing a strategic assetreview of our approximately 47 000 rentalstock units. This will give us an updated un-derstanding of the physical state of all of ourunits, the payment rates in areas, the effica-cy of our depots, andhow to change to amoresustainable model,” Van Minnen.By the end of the month, the City would

have spent approximately R39 m on mainte-nance. During the previous financial year,in 2014/15, an average spend of nearly 95%of its budget for maintenance was achieved.For those who are willing but unable to

pay, the City offers comprehensive debt re-lief in the form of an indigent grant, she add-ed.Tenants whose household income is up to

R3200 per month are encouraged to ap-proach their local housing office to apply fora grant.

Maintenance plan rewards tenantsPolice in the Blue Downs cluster last weekarrested a total of 562 suspects for variouscrimes.Police spokesperson Captain Nomathem-

baMuavha says police inMfuleni,Kleinvlei,KuilsRiver,ElsiesRiver,Ravensmead,Delftand Bellville South held a series of opera-tions throughout the cluster. Some of the op-erations were conducted at local shebeens.This follows a request by residents for the

police to intensify their raids. No less than11 shebeens have been closed down andmore than 2558 litres of liquor confiscated.During the raids more than 200 suspects

were arrested for the possession of drugs.Cluster commander Brigadier Hendrick

Jansen says crime pattern analysis showsthe consumption of liquor is the main con-tributor to domestic violence, disturbing ofneighbours during odd hours, robberies andrapes in the cluster.

Music lovers to teach kids to playRICHARD ROBERTS

@richardjohn_rj

Two music lovers are trying to pass ontheir knowledge of playing various in-struments to children from Kalkfon-

tein in a bid to help keep them off the impov-erished area’s streets and also preventingthem from getting into trouble.

Through the Kalkfontein OutreachProject the duo also want to help make a dif-ference by teaching them the guitar, drumsand keyboard and hopefully help eradicatecrime, gangsterism and drug abuse, saysteam member Chad Andrews.

Andrews and his friend, Chadley Beukes,are both locals from Highbury and belong toa band along with fellow band members Lau-rence Nel and Aubrey Uithaler.

Andrews is a musical graduate who com-pleted his studies at Stellenbosch Universityin 2015 completed a Jazz Diploma at the CapeMusic Institute (CMI) in Athlone in 2014,while Beukes is in his first year studying thesame subject at CMI.

Andrews, who started paying interest inmusic at the age of 15 and plays the lead gui-tar in their band, says they plan to developthe community in a positive way by offeringmusic lessons.

“We want to uplift the children, teenagersand adults and want to take them off thestreets.

“There is nothing in the area to keep them

occupied or active besides soccer, thereforewe thought of starting this programme – tostabilise their minds, which is somethingonly music can do,” Andrews says.

He adds their aim is to teach especiallychildren to lead by example in a positiveway.

The group was approached by Justin Wil-debees, a community worker, to help thechildren by intervening and teaching themmusical skills.

“On each and every corner we find thatthere are children just standing around, do-ing absolutely nothing with their lives.

“We want all of Kalkfontein’s people tojoin us in this programme,” he says.

The group will start teaching music les-sons as soon as the local primary school be-comes available to them.

Andrew says they already have a similarproject in Highbury at the Soneike Highschool where a lot of children have showninterest.

He says the project has so far been success-ful.

“We are also appealing to residents whohave instruments lying around the house toplease donate it to our project. This will helpus a lot,” he says.

At the moment the band uses its own key-board, guitars and drums to train the chil-dren.V Anyone wishing to make a contribution can callChad on 073 791 9129 or Chadley on 073 230 1026.

“As a young woman in your twentiesyour expectations of marriage are veryunrealistic. And when those expecta-tions fail us, depression is often a result,”says well-known local gospel singerCrystal Swanson.

A book authored by award winningjournalist Sisanda Nkoala, telling thestory behind Swanson’s career, was re-leased on 1 April at a packed venue atCentre for the Book in Cape Town.

The official book tour starts on Satur-day 2 July, with its first stop the Kraai-fontein library hall where a book signingwill take place between 13:30 and 16:30.

The book Shepherded: A Woman’s Tri-umph throughDepression andDivorce, isbased on the very well known Psalm 23and focuses on Swanson’s personal jour-ney through depression and divorce, for-giveness and healing and the birth of hersinging career, which flowed from this.

“It is not a sombre book and the focusis not on suffering hardship, but on over-coming it. Many Christians are faced

with depression at some time in theirlives – a topic that is often a taboo inchurches. But it’s very real and needs tobe treated seriously, as I discovered aftermy marriage fell apart,” she says.

Her approach to the disease was holis-tic. “It was a combination of medication,therapy and spirituality that resulted itsuccessful treatment.”

It is also a very practical book, offeringan arsenal of useful tips to married cou-ples. “By sharing the very many mis-takes I made during my marriage, thebook will serve as a guide to married cou-ples who might be facing troubled wa-ters,” she says.

“In this respect issues like forgivenessand the freedom it brings is looked at in-depth and from a women’s perspective.”

Swanson hails from Ravensmead andcurrently calls Durbanville home.

She is a radiographer of profession,but as a multitalented gospel artist hercareer spans more than a decade.V Entry to the book signing is free. Denise Willi­ams from Radio Tygerberg, motivational speakerJerry Louw and Gospel artists Trevor Benson andCheryl­Ann Ehrenreich will perform.

Gesprekke oor dwelmduiwelANDRÉ BAKKES

@andrebakkes

Syoëhet “oopgegaan” toehy sy sig ver-loor het.

Hy was ’n uitblinker op laerskool,maar net ’n skaduwee op hoërskool.

Diémanvandiewestelike kusstreekwasaan heroïen verslaaf toe hy in ’n ernstigemotorfietsongeluk betrokke was.

“Ek was altyd siek en vol pyne van diedwelms. Ek moes toe my ouers alles vertel.In Januarie 2011 is ek na ’n kliniek virdwelmbehandeling,” sê die man.

Dit is op tye soos Dwelmbewusmakings-week – van 24 tot 28 Junie – dat hy sy eieen ander se gruwelstories onthou.

“Ek het begin branderplankry toe ek 10was en begin sigarette rook op 13. Op 14 hetek en my maats dagga begin rook. Op hoër-skool het ek begin raves bywoon saam metouer vriende en kennis gemaak met anderdwelms soos LSD, buttons, ecstacy, crack enheroïen,” vertel hy.

Iemand anders sê: “Die dwelmprobleemhet by my al hoe erger geword en ek hetalle dwelms probeer. Op 40 het heroïen am-per my lewe gekos toe ek vir dood in diehospitaal gelos is.”

Storie agter verslawingDaar is ’n storie agter elke verslawing,

besef die man van die westelike kusstreek.“Toe ek in die vroeë sewentigs in die

Kaap kom werk het, het ek nie gedrink nie.“Nou, soveel jare later, kan ek nie eens

meer onthou wanneer of hoekom ek begindrink het nie of wanneer dit buite beheerbegin raak het nie. Wat ek wel weet, is datek een Maandagoggend weer half dronk en

siek wakker geword het en besef het dat eknie so kon voortgaan nie,” sê ’n ander per-soon.

“Ek het begin dwelms gebruik as gevolgvan kleintyd-trauma. Ek was baie sensi-tief, was vas aan Ma se rokspante en baiebang vir Pa.

“Ek was ses jaar oud toe Ma die huis ver-laat het en Pa al sy woede op my uitgehaalhet. Pa het my baie rondgeruk en gepluk.Ek was bang vir alles en my pa het my viralles blameer. Ek het begin sigarette endagga rookenhet baie gedrink,” sê diemanvan Namibië.

Almal van hulle is óf verwys na ’n reha-bilitasiesentrum óf het self besluit tot hiertoe en nie verder nie.

Waar hulle eers dwelms misbruik het,het dwelms hulle nou misbruik.

In die sentrum het almal die woord “ver-slawing” beter verstaan.

Ver-slaaf-ing. Hulle het slawe geword.Hy gaan voort: “My ouers het gedink ek

slaap oor byvriende enhet niks geweet vandwelms nie. Ons het nooit daaroor gepraatnie. My ouers het altyd geld gegee as ek vraenekhet somsgeldbyhulle gesteel en somsgoed uit die huis verkoop vir ’n bietjie ek-stra geld. Toe ek op 17 verslaaf geword hetaan heroïen, het ek baie gewig verloor. Op18 het ek 46 kg geweeg.

“My ouers het iets begin vermoed, maarek het gesê dit is van akademiese spanningdat ek nie kan eet nie. Hulle het gedink ditis gewone adolessente probleme. Ek dinkhulle was te skaam en bang om te dink dathul kind dwelms gebruik.”

Hy het later vir vier maande opgehou enbaie goed gedoen. Hy het ’n motorfiets ge-kry en het “lang ente gery” as hy niks ge-

had het om te doennie.

Was verveeldMaar toe een Son-

dag ...“Ek was verveeld

en sonder om tedink het ek weer he-roïen gaan koop engerook. Tot vandagtoe kan ek dit nieverstaan nie, wantek wou regtig nie terugkeer na die ou le-wenswyse nie. Ek was toe in ’n motorfiets-ongeluk en my gesig was vermink en ekwas blind. Dit was ’n aaklige tyd vol pynen selfverwyt. Ek het geglo God straf myoor my dwelmgebruik.

“Die versoeking is altyd daar om terugte val in die greep van dwelms,” sê hy.

’n Ander een sê: “As ek in die strate inRavensmead stap en ek ruik die dagga-walms, dan sper my niesgatte oepe soes ’npêd s’n. Dan knyp ek my neus toe en stapweg. Die lus duur net ’n minuut of twee endangaanditweg.Ekdinknet aandie stringnegatiewe gevolge wat wag as ek weerdwelms of alkohol gebruik.”

Die man wat in die vroeë sewentigsKaapstad toe gekom het, en “bevryding” inalkohol gevind het, voeg by: “Vandag is ditnie virmybelangrikomdaardie jare te ont-hou nie. Daar is niks wat ek daaraan kanverandernie enekkandit nie terugkrynie.

“Wat nou vir my onmeetbaar belangrikis, is dat ek vanoggend nugter wakker ge-word het en dat ek hopelik vanaand nugtersal gaan slaap. Ná meer as 16 jaar leef eknog steeds een dag op ’n slag en ek weet dat

my nugterheid meteen onbesonne daadvan my weggeneemkan word.

“Ek het nie ‘plan-ne’ om nugter te blynie,maar slegs hier-die een wete: dat eknooit weer wildrink nie, dat ek niehierdie nuwe ‘ek’weer in drank gaanverdrink nie. My

nugter lewe is te kosbaar om weg te gooi.”Voordat jy wegbreek van die dwelm-

greep kan aaklige ervarings jou elke nouen dan nugter laat skrik, soos die man ver-tel met die pa wat hom mishandel het: “Ekwas op dwelms en het by ’n prostituut ge-kuier. Tien jaar gelede het ek vir ’n agent-skap in Seepunt gewerk, wat toe een aandberoof is.

“My hande was vasgebind terwyl die ro-wers twee kollegas se kele afgesny het. Ekhet ’n hek uit sy skarniere gehardloop. La-ter het ek angsaanvalle begin kry en hetprobeer om vigs te kry sodat ek kon dood-gaan. Ek het twee jaar op straat gebly.”

Maar elkeen van die bogenoemde menseis gerehabiliteer, en kan vir nou met ’nbreë bors hul storie uitbasuin.

Die man van die westelike kusstreeksluit af: “Hoewel ek julle nie kan sien nie,kan ek praat en hoor en die boodskap vanverlossing verkondig. Jongmense moetbaie versigtig wees vir dagga, want dit iswaar my probleme begin het.

“Van my ou vriende is twee van dwelmsdood en ’n derde is in die tronk. Ek is blind,maar ek lewe en ek is vry.”

Hulle het gedink ditis gewone adoles­sente probleme. Ekdink hulle was teskaam en bang omte dink dat hul kinddwelms gebruik.

Theywill be able to apply for a specialvote and if successful, will be able to casttheir vote at the polling station at whichthey are registered to vote, on the specialvoting days prior to the election,” she ex-plains.Applications for this type of special votecan be done in three ways: an SMS to 32249,an online submission at www.elections.org.za, or a submission of form MEC35 atthe IEC office in Bellville or elsewhere.“A Type 2 special vote is only for the sickand housebound. In this instance, a voterwould apply for an IEC official to visit themat their home on special voting days be-cause they are not mobile and or too sickto vote on election day. People requiring ahome visitmust reside and be visited in thevoting district in which they are registeredto vote,” she says.“If your application for a special vote issuccessful, you will vote in the followingmanner: Your thumbnail is marked withindelible ink, while your ID book isstamped.

A look at themonthly statisticsreveals an average of just over 8500 prankcalls a month, with spikes experienced inJanuary, April and August.‘‘The calls range from emergency hoaxesto the vilest verbal abuse, but also, moredisturbingly, calls of a very perverse na-ture. It is unacceptable that our operators,who are there to do a very serious job, haveto endure this type of abuse with no re-course except to cut the call,’’ says theCity’sMaycomember for safety and securi-ty, JP Smith.‘‘Our system allows us to pick up exactlywhere the call is coming from. I have in-structed the City’s Special InvestigationsUnit to extract information on the top 10 ha-bitual offenders and lay charges in termsof national legislation that makes suchprank and hoax calls to an emergency callcentre an offence. A few well-publicisedconvictions will serve as a good deterrentif we can get them,’’ adds Smith.

AVRIL FILLIES

Youth Day is a reminder thatthe future is in the hands ofthe youth, and education is

the key.Khwezi Jackson (19), a student

from Bellville and a former learnerfrom Stellenberg High School, saysstudents complaining that theycan’t afford a tertiary education,have no excuse not to study.“It is our responsibility to deter-

mine what kind of future we makefor ourselves,” he says. “My mom,Chumisa, is a single parent withfour children, and she also couldnot afford to send me to universityor technikon. She opted to sendmeto the Cape Town Tertiary Schoolin Business Administration (TSi-BA) in Pinelands after matric in2014,” says Jackson.He is a Bachelor in Business Ad-

ministration student and he wouldlike to encourage those who can’tafford to study at a tertiary institu-tion to opt for TSiBA.“TSiBA shows us that education

is more than just studying; thatthere is a whole world out there. AtTSiBA students are given a secondchance to catch up and learn basicacademic skills which they mayhave missed in high school. TSiBAis different in that they providegreat support to help all students todo well in their studies. Their ‘Payit Forward’ philosophy empowersme to give back to the community,but I also get to do amazing things,gain exposure to new networks,ideas and overseas university pro-grammes,” he says.TSiBA offers four business entre-

preneurship and leadership qualifi-

cations with a strong focus on self-development and practical experi-ence, in this way effecting realsocio-economic change for the fu-ture.“My advice to learners is to know

what you want to do and researchyour options as well as the scholar-ship opportunities out there. Therearemany great tertiary institutions

out there, but I would highly recom-mend if you aremotivated, self-driv-en and have a good attitude, youshould apply to TSiBA. It’s morethan just a scholarship; more thanjust an education. It’s a way of life.The reality is a degree doesn’t guar-antee a job anymore, but I am confi-dent that TSiBA’s programme andaccredited degreewill developme tobe the employee that every employ-er is looking for,” he adds.Jackson was born inMount Frere

in the Eastern Cape and attendedthe Excelsior Primary School andStellenberg High. He was a memberof the Students RepresentativeCounsel in 2015 and was selected to

be a youth leader for a youth groupcalled the RUSH (Rocking the Uni-verse Spiritually High).“In 2015 I was accepted at TSiBA

and completed my Higher Certifi-cate in Business Administration. Iwas fifth on the merit list and start-ed my Bachelors this year. I haveserved in the executive boards ofEnactus as well as the TSiBA chessteam,” he says.Adri Marais, TSiBA CEO and co-

founder, explains that “TSiBA’sunique curriculum integratesknowledge, skills and attitudethrough our ‘Profile of Graduate-ness’ which has been carefully de-signed to match the needs of em-ployers and the competenciesneed-ed to be a successful entrepre-neur”.“The evidence is there in that

96% of TSiBA degree graduates areemployed, studying at postgradu-ate level or become entrepre-neurs,” he says.KwaneleMagwaca of StudentRe-

cruitment at TSiBA, encourageslearners and potential scholarshipapplicants to “be more organised,plan ahead and send in applicationsearly”. “We are looking for youngpeople who have potential, an inter-est in business and who want tomake a difference in their commu-nities, to apply to TSiBA.”V To grab this opportunity and change yourlife visit TSiBA Cape Town’s Campus OpenDay on Saturday 30 July 2016 between10:00 to 13:00. You will get to experiencethe campus and learn about this businessschool directly from students and staff.V For more information contact KwanelaMagwaca on 021 532 2750 or emailstudy@tsiba.org.za or visit www.tsi­ba.org.za.

KLUBRUGBY: BELHAR SE AFRIGTER MIK VIR GOUEBEKER­KOMPETISIE

Wenkultuur sy strewe

Bronson Weir is die afrigter van die Belhar­rugbyklub.

AVRIL FILLIES

Die afrigter van die Belhar-rugbyklub,Bronson Weir, is geen onbekende asdit by rugby-afrigting kom nie. Hy kan

7’s en 15’s afrig en is die afgelope ses jaar diebreier in Belhar.

“Ek is gebore en getoë in Belhar en het se-wes by die Sekondêre Skool Excelsior en ver-skeie provinsiale en internasionale spanneafgerig, terwyl ek nog steeds by ’n finansiëleinstelling gewerk het. Ek was voorheen byNedbank en is tans by Ou Mutual, een vandie borge van die klub,” sê hy.

Van die spelers wat hy onder hande gehadhet, is Justin Geduld, Cheslin Kolbe, EdwinZass en Dennis Cox in die WP se o.18-span.

Hy was ook die afrigter van die SA sewes-studentespan van 2009 tot 2011, wat die Cen-trale 7’s in Parys en Morokko gewen het. Hyhet ook Kenia Shujaa 7’s afgerig, wat dieAfrikabeker gewen het.

“Excelsior sal my altyd na aan die hart lê,want ek het baie sukses daar behaal. Ek hetook deur Afrika gereis en het afrigting inlande soos Uganda en Kenia gedoen.”

SuperligaBelhar speel in die A-kompetisie van die

WP se Superliga en die klub se sterkpunt issy hardlooprugby. Die klub spog met lojaleondersteuners wat weekliks die span komondersteun, wat bydra tot die span se suk-ses. Belhar het ook al Blitsbokke opgelewer.

“Tans oefen vyf klubspelers by die WP seamateurspan. Vanjaar is my eerste jaar ashoofafrigter van die A-span en my doelwitis om ’n sterkwenkultuur indieklub te skep,wat met dissipline, harde werk en waag-moed gepaardgaan. Ons is nog nie daar waarons wil wees nie, maar hopelik sal alles inplek val,” het Weir gesê.

Belhar het nie uitblinkers nie, maar diespan in sy geheel dra by tot die klub se suk-ses. Die klub het ’n paar sleutelspelers ver-loor en hopelik sal die jong spelers hul voetevind.

“Ons gebruik hoofsaaklik spelers uit Bel-har en omgewing en doen ’n beroep op hulleom by die klub se speelstyl in te koop en bydie klub te bly. Belhar se uiteindelik doel isom in die Gouebekerkompetisie, voorheendie Community Cup, te speel, sodat ons ta-lent op televisie gewys kan word.

“In ons wedstryd teen Tygerberg het meeras 1 000 toeskouers kom kyk en dink net watkan gebeur met televisiedekking,” sê hy.

GemeenskapsklubOmdat die klub ’n gemeenskapsklub is,

probeer hulle om meer by die omliggendeskole betrokke te raak, maar wil dit op ’ngroter skaal doen.

“Die meeste van die afrigters het ’n vol-dagwerk, wat verhoed dat hulle by skole be-trokke kan raak.

“Vir my is dit belangrik dat die jeug in Bel-har moet opkyk na die spelers, sodat hullekan sien daar is beter keuses as bendes endwelms. Wanneer ons Saterdae op die velddraf, gaan dit vir die spelers nie net oor die80 minute nie, maar jy is ’n ambassadeur virjou gemeenskap,” sê Weir.

Die klub is in 1992 deur wyle Arthur Booy-sen gestig en sy seun, Jerome, is tans die pre-sident van die klub. Jerome het in die apart-heidsjare vir Saru gespeel en Jerome Ameri-ca was een van Saru se top-skeidsregters.

Wanneer hy nie rugby afrig nie, is Weir’n gesinsman en voor hy by rugby betrokkewas, het hy met parkiete geboer. Hy het ’nvlak2-afrigterskwalifikasie vir 7’s en 15’s.

Hy lees sport-outobiografieë en is ’n adre-nalien-junkie wat lief is vir die buitelug.
