Whenever I hear people speak about a wom-an in power who really gives back, DawnRoode is always mentioned.
She is not only a community leader andphilanthropist, to many she is a pillar ofstrength. Ward councillor Cynthia Claasensays: “She is a remarkable-once-in-a-life-time-kind-of woman”.
Last Wednesday, at the Subcouncil 21meeting held in Kuils River, Dawn wasawarded with the first-ever certificate ofsubcouncil civic award, an achievement ofnote showing the inspiration she truly is.
“When my name was called, I didn’t knowwhat was going on. I don’t do any of my workfor recognition,” she humbly says.
She has worked in the community for 17years, uplifting, volunteering and trying tomake a change in areas such as Eerste River,Kuils River, Gugulethu and Mitchell’s Plain
She has worked at clinics, health expos,feeding and caring schemes, involved her-self in programmes to help youth at risk, pro-grammes for abused women. She also worksclosely wi8th police at a victim-support vol-unteer.
She started a feeding scheme with nobudget at Sarepta High School in Kuils Riverfour years ago and boastfully says that todaythe school has their own sustainable soupkitchen. She says her community workdates back to her adolescence when she wasstill in Catholic school and was reminded of
the work Mother Theresa did.“I told myself, back then already, I wanted
to be like her. She is my inspiration,” Dawnsays. Councillor Steven Vuba comments:“She managed to make a mark by motivat-ing, inspiring and supporting. We can alllook up to her.”’
Cynthia, who worked with Dawn in 2000in Wesbank at a crisis centre for abusedgirls, says that Dawn never hesitates toreach out a helping hand. “She taught me tokeep my promises to the vulnerable, to makesure you deliver. She is a woman who doesnot see colour or creed,” Cynthia says.
Dawn recalls keeping 500 children off thestreets with a meal every day during the Soc-cer World Cup as one of her most cherishedmoments.
Felicity Barreiro, who nominated Dawnfor this award says that it’s time that some-one with such a heart gets recognition forall she does.
When receiving the reward she says thatshe wishes the community was there to ex-perience it with her. “What I do is for them.I received it with so much passion and dedi-cation and will never stop doing what I do.”
She is currently busy with school pro-grammes at Irista Primary School in KuilsRiver where she helps children cultivatetheir reading skills.
Dawn hopes to inspire people to make achange and help the underprivileged. As shesaid when receiving the reward, “all thecommunity needs is support”.

An Mfuleni couple were convicted of mur-dering a police constable, after burying himin their back yard.The court heard that Barnabas Sentiwe,
killed Constable Monwabisi Mnyombolo inOctober 2009 at the couple’s home.His sentence of 15 yearswas handed down
at Cape Town High Court on Monday.Sentiwe pleaded guilty to murdering the
Cape Town policeman. Sentiwe said he sus-pected that Monwabisi and his wife werehaving an affair.
Sentiwe entered a sentencing and pleaagreement with the State regarding thedeath of Constable Monwabisi in October2009.He admitted that he went to the police-
man’s house on 24 October 2009 and accusedhimof having an affairwith hiswife, Phum-za Veli.Sentiwe refused to testify against hiswife,
Phumza who has been accused as an acces-sory to murder, but was not asked to plead.An argument transpired and Sentiwe fa-
tally stabbed Mnyombolo, after which hecarried the body home and buried it in thebackyard of his home in Mfuleni.In April the following year, he sold the
house and in May of 2011, the new ownersof the house noticed a piece of cloth stickingout of the sand and pulled it which led tothe discovery of a pair of pants and bones.The forensic tests which were done, con-
firmed that the bones were that belongingto Mnyombolo. Sentiwe had intitiallyagreed to a jail term of 20 years.

A passion for music and awill to uplift the communityof Blue Downs.
This is what Ayesha Ajou-haar and her family thriveon. Bringing music to theears of those who have notyet discovered its pleasure.
“We have a lot of childrenin the area who are on drugsand want to keep them awayfrom that,” says Ayesha.
Their hope is to ensurethat the majority of the com-munity, especially theyouth, steer clear of a life ocrime, by providing themwith new skills and opportu-nities. “We give people theopportunity to try some-thing new,” says Ayesha.
Through this, they have started the BlueDowns Brass Band, entertaining audiencesacross the province with their talent.
Their sound is derived from the distinctCape Minstrel, although they have a likingto the more modern sounds of R&B as well.
What encouraged the Ajouhaar’s passionto pursue an interest in music came fromwatching and studying the art on the televi-sion.
Her husband Fuad, was a member of aCape Malay Choir for years, and what hehas learned was put to good use as a meansto start the brass band.
“We don’t want to be a band known forduplicating the sound of the minstrels, wewant to make a name for ourselves,” saysher son, Shiraaz.
The pair regularly take band members on
outings to show there is a different life tothe grinding crime and povery they arefaced with daily.
“Some of the children are interested butsome, not so much. But as soon as they getstarted, they become experienced,” saidFuad. On 27 April 27, the band starts practis-ing with gusto. They are also wanting to at-tract new members.
Also, those who would like to donate oldbrass instruments such as trumpets, trom-bones, saxophones and tubas are urged todo so.
Lessons take place in Malibu Village atthe recreation centre (old clinic buildingnext to the taxi rank) on Saturdays 14:30 to18:00.V For more information contact Shiraaz on074 275 3217 or Fuad on 071 822 3952.

group of friends (Timber Barbies) accostedthe rival group led by a 15-year-old, in aclassroom after which a fight ensued.According to witness’ statements the 14-
year-old punched the 15-year-old in the face.A friend responded and retaliated by hit-
ting the initial attacker several times overthe head with the buckle of a leather belt.During the scuffle, the 15-year-old learner

They are teaching ordinary children ex-traordinary things.This is the difference a family is making
in the lives of children, going the extra mileand playing an influential role in the livesof others.Owners and founders of theCyrlita School
of Art in Blackheath, Cyril and Juanita Pe-tersen started the school in honour of theirdaughter who was the inspiration and vi-sion behind the name.“Children are my whole life. I want to be
with with them for the rest of my life,” saidJuanita.Juanita marvels that she is a teacher who
is responsible for shaping young minds,even though she never aspired to be one inher younger years.Juanita believes in always being one step
ahead, teaching her students – some asyoung as five – more than what they needto know.“People need to love their children and do
everything they can for them,” she says.She receivedmanynegative remarks from
ex-colleague who did not agree with her ap-proach.“Throughmymethods of training I am do-
ing other teachers a favour. Teachers needto uplift themselves,” she said.The school was started after Cyril and his
daughter, Cyrlita, engaged in voice trainingand used their skill as a means of raisingfunds.He was approached by many to put it to
good use, performing in supermarkets andgrabbing the attraction of crowds.“We started way back in the early 90s, do-
ing it for fun and later it became an obses-sion with myself, my wife and daughter,”said Cyril.The money made would be used for ma-
triculants, especially those who cannot af-ford to pay school fees.They developed a pay-it-forward attitude
which is catching on in the community.Although Cyrlita has an interest for mu-
sic, having recorded her own albumand per-forming as a child with her father, sheshares a passion for children.The school hopes to exploring impover-
ished communities and discover untappedmusical talent.“In discovering these talented young ones,
we turn them into successful performersand expose them to the public,” said Cyril.The school is very focused on introducing
Bible knowledge to the children, who reciteverses directly from any passage.Enough to leave anyone’s jaw hanging.Their hope is to build their school into one
of the biggest arts schools in Cape Town.“Somebody once said that it’s good to
dream, but you should keep on dreamingun-til your hard work turns your dream into areality,” says Cyril.The school presents regular concerts and
music shows as a fundraising means in or-der to keep the school running.Cyril finds that the community itself is an
obstacle whereby people have adopted a cer-tain attitude when it comes to assisting withfundraising.“They would hear Percy Sledge is coming
to Cape Town and pay R320 a ticket insteadof watching local talent,” he said.The school will be having a concert at the
Alta du Toit Centre in Kuils River, on 4May.V For more information or to help raise funds contactCyril on 021 905 3797 or 083 369 7705.

Play on the green at Blue Downs
Cape Town's executive mayor, Patricia de Lille shows she is no beginner at golf.
City of CapeTownexecutivemayor, PatriciadeLille, officially opened the newly-renovat-ed Blue DownsGolf Driving Range on Satur-day with a swing as smooth as can come.Her swingwas, of course, notwhat the day
was about, but rather the driving range andthe new opportunities on the green andrange for the local community.The driving range has been upgraded
thanks to a partnership between the city’s
Sport, Recreation and Amenities Depart-ment and the Blue Downs Golf Club.Construction of the Blue DownsGolf Driv-
ing Range started in late 2009. The latest ren-ovations, including alterations to the club-house and facility equipment, mean thatwork is now complete – at a total cost of R1,8million.The City-owned facility is managed by the
Blue Downs Golf Club.
Through the City’s Expanded PublicWorks Programme, 12 jobs have alreadybeen created, and the City intends to employanother four workers over a six-month peri-od.The sport of golf started to develop in the
Blue Downs and Eerste River areas in 1994,when a small group of keen golfers ear-marked a piece of land in order to developgolf and curb crime and drug abuse in the
community.The Blue Downs Golf Driving Range aims
to build trans-cultural relationships in thecommunity by introducing golf to the youth,men, women, senior citizens and personswith disabilities.The intention is to teach the youth the val-
ues of sportsmanship and self-discipline andto produce world-class golfers.V Visit www.tygerburger.co.za for more photos.

Die Leogesin is al weer aan die baklei. Hulle is (van links) Lisa (Erica Wessels),Koert (Jacques Theron) en Rita (Sandra Prinsloo) met ’n sterwende Ben (TobieCronje) in die agtergrond.
Stuk vol humor, deernisMARANA BRAND VAN HULSTEYN
Elke af en toe komdaar ’n teaterpro-duksie op die toneel wat jou binnes-te hard laat uitroep: “Hierdie is ’nmoet-sien!”.Die Leo’s, met die ikoniese Sandra
Prinsloo enTobieCronje in die hoof-rolle as die pa en ma van ’n totaaldisfunksionele gesin, is een so ’nstuk. ’n Mens weet eenvoudig: hier-sonder is jou lewe leër.Dié donker komedie, wat vertaal
en verwerk is deur die veelbekroon-de Durbanville-regisseur, Hennievan Greunen, word nou direk vandieAbsaKKNK,waar dit die enigstevertoning is wat uitverkoop het, nadie die noordelike voorstede ge-bring in samewerking met Tyger-Burger.Van 9 tot 17 Mei sal Die Leo’s die
noorde in sy eie vlagskip-teater, dieBellville-burgersentrum, laat ska-ter van die lag, met deernis vul enlaat wegstap met stof tot nadenke.Die Leo’s gaan oor ’n gesin vol self-
behepte, ongelukkige en ja, aakligemense. Pa Ben (Tobie Cronje) lê opsy sterfbed. Hy dink blykbaar ditgee hom die reg om nou van 40 jaarse frustrasie ontslae te raak.Ma Rita (Sandra Prinsloo) sit dag
na dag en lees tuisversieringstyd-skrifte langs sy bed. Sy wil geweten-loos die leefkamer oordoen voordathaar arme man die tydelike met dieewige verwissel. Iets waarteen Benten sterkste gekant is. Hy sê immers“ek is lief vir alles in daai huis, be-halwe die mense...”Rita se tong spaarniemandnie. Sy
raak die koudste, onnadenkendstegoed kwytwat sny soos ’nmes. Haar

Like, dagga shouldbe legal, manTAMMY PETERSEN
Hundreds of people from across the cityare expected to take to the streets nextweek to promote “solidarity” among dag-ga users.
Organised by the National Organisa-tion for the Reform of Matekwane Lawsin South Africa, NORMLZA and IqelaLentsango: The Dagga Party of South Af-rica, the Cape Town Global CannabisMarch on Saturday 4 May will be attend-ed by those who support the legalisationof the plant as an “economic resource forpublic benefit”.
Jeremy Acton, the leader of the DaggaParty which is registered for the 2014 na-tional elections, says participants will becelebrating their diversity, unity andmu-tual respect for each other and the herb.
The party’s newsletter, The Daggab-lad, says daggawas one of themany tradi-tional smokesusedbyAfricansbefore theadvent of the Dutch and British empires.
It was also a source of fibres and theseeds were a valuable source of humannutrition. Dagga was first outlawed inSouth Africa in 1911.
“If one views the police’s dagga prose-cution statistics, it is clear that dagga useis a very common practice and should beregardedas a legitimatehistorical cultur-al practice among citizens which shouldbe respected by narcotics laws and by theBill of Rights of our Constitution,” thenewsletter reads.
“Dagga law enforcement costs SouthAfrica millions of rands to imprison oth-erwise law-abiding and economically ac-
tive people. The legalisation of daggawould allow thepolice tohave theirwork-load lightened, allowing them to dealwith real crimes that have real victims,such as theft,murder, assault and fraud.”
Acton says it is important that legisla-tion legalises dagga and that this is “care-fully crafted tomaximise the benefits andminimise any harms and its control by a‘dagga elite’”.V Protesters will meet at the corner of Keizersgracht and Chapel streets, Cape Town at 10:00on Saturday 4 May for a “Festive Walk” throughthe city streets.

Western Province sent three teams to theinter-provincial tournament hosted inPretoria by Tennis South Africa (TSA)and South African Schools Tennis (un-der-15 and u-19) whilst Bloemfonteinhosted the u-13s.
The u-13 team had a shaky start as theywere still adjusting to the high tempera-tures and altitude. Adapting quickly,theymanaged towin all their group-stagegames as well as the quarter-finalsagainst Eastern Province and the semi-fi-nal against Gauteng Central.
They went on the beat the hosts in athrilling final 25-23, bringing home thegold.
WP u-15s and u-19s had everything toprove after the u-19s were placed 11th in
last year’s inter-provincial tournament.The u-15 team showed true grit, ending
the tournament as runners-up toGautengCentral after being seeded fifth despiteone of the players collapsing and beinghospitalised due to medical problems.
WP u-19s, however, swept all beforethem on their way to the gold.
In a fantastic team performance theywon 66 out of 72 singles matches. JoshLuck, Katie Poluta and Chelsea Stewardwere unbeaten in singles in the tourna-ment, while the entire team won morethan 95 % of all singles, doubles andmixed doubles matches during the tour-nament. Luck and Nina van der Berghheld on towin a keymixed doublesmatchto clinch the final for WP.

Riverside have what it takesTHOMAS CAROLUS
The ingredients are all there for River-side Rangers to clinch a third successiveSuper League title when they face Cen-tral AFC on Sunday in a Northern Sub-urbs Football Association league matchat Symphony Park.
William Jacobs, captain of RiversideRangers, is genuinely confident that theycan go one step better than in 2012.
“We have a balanced team and qualityplayers in every position.Most of all, eve-ryone at the club has a positive mentali-ty,’’ he says.
“Equally important is the togethernessof the squad. We spend most of our freetime together and that builds great teamspirit. Thatwas the secret behind the suc-cess of the team of the late 90s, and it’s
something that’s finding it’s way into thecurrent generation.
“That is why we won the League lastseason and why I’m positive we will de-fend it this time around.’’
Jacobs is reluctant to compare the cur-rent Riverside Rangers team to the sidethatwonahat-trick of titles. “I don’twantto compare the two sides. One thing thatis similar though, is that both were filledwith top quality players,” he says.
“In the goalkeeping department wehave two of themost experienced keepersin the league.
“The defence has gelled as a unit andprovides excellent cover for our goal-keepers. We give the midfielders andstrikers the licence to play their attack-ing gamewithout fear of worryingwhat’shappening at the back.”

Ajax Cape Town’s battle to steer clearof the relegation zone suffered a set-back when they were beaten 2-0 by
Bidvest Wits at the Athlone Stadium onSaturday night.The result leaves the Parow side in the
relegation zone, behind Black Leopards ongoal difference, and three points ahead offellowMother City strugglers ChippaUnit-ed.The Urban Warriors had Mabuthi
Khenyeza back in the starting line-up afterhis two-match suspension for a sending off,but therewas little for the frontman to feedoff in the initial stages of the encounter.
ChancesThe earlymoments sawneither side able
to findmuch penetration up front, with theexception of a seventh minute chance for
Ajax Cape Town , Granwald Scott havinghis header saved by Emile Baron, follow-ing Lebogang Manyama’s cross.Bidvest Wits reply came via a couple of
long range efforts, but Tinashe Nengoma-sha had his effort blocked, while formerFree State Stars winger MzikayiseMashaba pushed his free kick left of thegoal.Khama Billiat has been guilty of squan-
dering numerous chances of late for theParow side, and he again failed to find thetarget with a right-footed effort, 18 yardsout in front of goal.Chances were then exchanged as
Khenyeza failed to connect with LanceDavids’ cross, while for Wits, Faty Papywas unable to draw a save from SanderWesterveld from the edge of the area,whlieRyan Chapman was off the mark, missingthe near post with a fierce effort from atight angle in the 34th minute.
OpportunityIt was Ajax Cape Town though who end-
ed the opening stanza on the front foot,Abia Nale coming to the fore with a decenteffort, his 40thminute opportunity from in-side the box being dragged wide of goal forwhat had been Ajax Cape Town’s bestchance of the game.Ajax Cape Town started the second half
where they left off in the first, having thefirst two chances after the restart as Mat-thew Booth headed wide from Billiat’s cor-ner, before Baron made an excellent saveto deny Manyama.But it is the visiting team who were to
score first, having given away possessioncheaply, theParowsidewatchedasSandileSibande set up Sibusiso Vilakazi to scorefrom close range after 50 minutes.Chances were few and far between after
that, with Ajax Cape Town unable to mas-ter any kind of meaningful fight back.
And with 10 minutes to go, the Studentsgot the insurance goal they needed whenAsive Langwe headed in from Faty’s crossfollowing a very swift counter-attackingmove.Things got worse for Ajax Cape Town
with five minutes to go when ThulaniHlatshwayo’s challenge on Papy earnedhim a second yellow card and a dismissal,summing up what was a forgettable nightfor the Parow side.Platinum Stars had missed a glorious
chance to momentarily move to within apoint off the summit after they were heldto a 1-1 home draw by bottom side ChippaUnited.The point for Chippa United, meanwhile
still left them bottom on 20 points, but me-ant they had a real shot of climbing out ofthe last place when they faced second-bot-tomAjaxCapeTown (23) in a relegation sixpointer next Saturday.
