Over 300 people participated in theWorld Hand Hygiene relay at the Tyg-erberg Hospital on Thursday.
The human chain from the surgical out-patients department on the fifth floor to theD5 surgical ward consisted of doctors, nurs-es, hospital management, ancillary, domes-tic, housekeeping, administrative, emer-gency medical staff, technicians and stu-dents.
One of the hospital’s goals was to breakthe record of people participating in thisevent, but unfortunately they fell short.
Ultimately, this day wasn’t aboutrecords, but creating awareness of how im-portant hand hygiene is.
Hospital spokesperson, Laticia Pienaar,elaborates: “Every year hospital related in-fections kill 16 million patients worldwide.Germs are microscopic and cannot be seenwith the naked eye. Hands are the mostcommon vehicle of transmission of germsin the community and in hospitals. A sim-ple intervention of effective hand hygienecan potentially reduce hospital acquired in-fections and thus related deaths by up to50%.”
The hospital formed part of a WorldHealth Organisation “Save Lives” cam-paign.
All participants passed on a hand hygienebaton and demonstrated a moment of handhygiene prior to and after handling of thebaton.
Pienaar continues: “In 2015 over 30 000people took part in relays internationallyand an Iranian hospital set a new recordwith 660 workers. We fell short of this
record, but it has been shown that all hospi-tals who took part in the campaign, in-crease the handwashing/hygiene compli-ance within their own health care facility.”
The event was officially opened by thechief operations officer of Tygerberg Hospi-tal, Dr Paul Ciapparelli.
All wards and individuals were encour-aged to create hand hygiene posters, withthe best judged posters winning a varietyof sponsored hamper prizes. Prizes werehanded out immediately after the event.
Pienaar emphasises that it is a patient’sright to ask their health professionalwhether they washed their hands beforetreating you.
She concludes: “When washing yourhands you should use soap and water. Fric-tion and rubbing is most important to loos-en germs from the skin surface.
“Make sure you rub everywhere – bothsurfaces of both hands, between the fingers,nails, tip of fingers and thumbs as well asweb spaces. Rub for at least 30-40 seconds,rinse well and dry properly with a cleanhand towel or paper. The use of hand sani-tisers is an effective way to clean handswithout soap and water. Hand sanitiserscannot be used when hands are visiblydirty or soiled with body fluids. You shouldwash your hands before and after the prepa-ration of food, before and after eating, afterusing the toilet or changing a nappy, aftertouching animals or waste items, afterblowing your nose, or sneezing or coughingin your hands.
“Hospitalised patients should wash theirhands on entering a ward, clinic, or patientroom, or when they exit these units. Thesame applies to visitors of hospitalised pa-tients.”

Two suspects were arrested later.The 64-year-old man was attacked shortly
after he arrived on his farm in Brackenfellon Tuesday morning.
“He was delivering newspapers and uponhis return, he was approached by an un-
known man who demanded his cellphoneand money. When he said he had nothing,the suspect attacked him with a big knife.The man tried to ward off the attack bygrabbing the knife, and sustained seriousinjuries,” says Captain FC Van Wyk fromthe Western Cape Police’s media centre.
“A second suspect, who at the time at-tempted to gain entrance to the man’shouse, came to assist his partner, afterwhich the two fled on foot when a securityvehicle arrived.”

Skool doen onontbeerlike werkANDRÉ BAKKES
@andrebakkes
Die onontbeerlike werk vandie Tygerberg-hospitaal-skool kan nie genoeg be-
klemtoon word nie.Ontmoet Riaan*, ’n student by
’n vooraanstaande kollege.Riaan se lewe was op ’n ver-
woestingspad nadat hy op sy pase lyk afgekomhet nadat hy self-dood gepleeg het.In dié beproewende tyd het hy
dwelms begin gebruik en in diepsigiatriese eenheid van die Ty-gerberg-hospitaal beland.Die depressiewe jongmanwas
vir twee jaar uit die skool – tenspyte van die suksesvolle psigia-triese hulp wat hy ontvang het,was sy toekoms maar donker.
AbetprogramDie personeel by die skool het
hom op vlak vier van die Abet-program gesit, wat gelykstaan-de is aan graad 9 op skool.Hulle het alles vir Riaan gedoen om hom
uit die put van ellende te trek.Daarwas nie altyd geld vir homomskool
toe te kom nie, maar die personeel het gelduit hul eie sakke bymekaar geskraap omhom die beste toekoms moontlik te bied.Hy het uiteindelik sewe onderskeidings
behaal en studeer nou om ’n dieselmegani-kus te word.Nie alle stories is egter so positief soos
Riaan s’n nie, sê SusanPotgieter, die skool-hoof.Die skool is daar vir kinders wat vir ’n
lang tydperk in die hospitaal behandel
moet word en dan daarna weer terug moetgaan na ’n gewone skool.Die kinders is baie keer uiters siek,maar
die skoolpersoneel laat hul nie onderkrynie. Hulle speel ’n kardinale rol in die kindse lewe.“Ons probeer hard omnie daai diep emo-
sionele verbintenis met kinders te maaknie. Ons werk nie vir die hospitaal nie, sobaie min inligting oor die kind se diagnoseis tot ons beskikking. Dit is eintlik goed so,want hoeminder jyweet, hoeminderweer-baar is jy.“Dis baie hartseer. Baie keer kan jy sien
die kind gaan agteruit, maar dan kom jy
terug werk toe en die kind is weer daar.Dan is daar die ander wat jy dink reg is enmôre is die kind dan nie meer daar nie,”sê Potgieter.Die personeel druk egter deur die swaar
tye met die wete dat die skool se positiewerolnoual oor 54 jaar strekendaarduisendekinders is wat beter af is te danke aan hul-le.Om genoeg geld bymekaar te skraap is
uiteraard ’n groot uitdaging vir die skool.Hulle kry ondersteuning van die rege-
ring,maar volgens Potgieter is dit nooit ge-noeg nie.“Ons sou so graag meer personeel wou
aanstel,” gaan sy voort.“Kyk, ons bring siek kinders
vandiehospitaal hierheen, par-tykeer in rolstoele. Ons wil hul-le wegvat uit die omgewing vansiek mense.”
Nie ver van beddensDie skooltjie is op die hospi-
taalterrein, so die kinderswordnie ver van hul beddens ge-neem nie.“Die kinders wat maande in
traksie lê, of dié wat eenvoudignet te siek is om uit die hospi-taal te kom, moet by hul bed-dens onderrig word.In hierdie stadium het ons
een juffrou wat dit permanentdoen, maar sy kan net so agtkinders ’n dag sien. Dis nienaastenby genoeg nie.”Een van die skool se grootste
geldinsamelings van die jaarvind op Saterdag 28 Mei van09:30 tot 12:00 in die Vredelust-aktiwiteitsentrum in Bellville
plaas.Michelle Luscombe, ’n ontvanger van ’n
skenkershart, sal praat by die byeenkomsmet die tema “Uit die hart”.Viljoen Retief sal gedurende die oggend
so twee of drie liedjies sing en daar sal ookitems uitgeloot word.Die skool en die kinders maak staat op
broodnodige skenkings van die publiek, soselfs al kan jy nie die vroueoggend bywoonnie, kan jy altyd ’n paar rand vir die skoolskenk.* Riaan is ’n skuilnaam.

Dog attacks – how to protect yourself, child
Never approach unknown dogs
A dog may be a “man’s best friend” but doyou know how to reduce your chances of be-ing bitten by one?According to Samantha Walpole, the sec-
retary of Animal Behavioural Consultantsof SouthAfrica, children are themost at riskof being bitten by dogs and should be educat-ed about how to act around and take care oftheir dogs.“Children are generally drawn to dogs.
Wagging tails are attractive to children. Un-fortunately, the public is ill informed that ifa dog’s tail iswagging, itmeans that it is hap-py and is safe to approach. This is far fromthe truth. Children are also taught that hug-ging and kissing is an acceptable form of af-fection. Itmightbe tohumans, but to caninesthis is perceived as confrontational.“Fundamentally, humans and dogs speak
a different language. When communicationis misunderstood, people get bitten,” saysWalpole, who is also a dog behaviourist andtrainer.Dogs could also turn on their owners as
a result of a number of reasons.Walpole says dogs that bite their owners,
or anyone else, could have an underlyingmedical condition. The dog could also bepushed to a point where it has no choice orcould feel that its life is being threatened.Harsh and confrontational training meth-ods could also be a contributing factor withregards to human related dog aggression.Walpole says that people should purchase
dogs from reputable breeders to minimisethe risk of being bitten.“If you want to purchase a puppy, do your
homework to match the right breed withyour lifestyle. Join a reputable positive rein-forcement socialisation school. Thereshould be continued training to build a goodbond between you and your dog. You shouldseek assistance immediately if there are anyearly signs that make you uncomfortable,”said Walpole.She provides the following tips and urges
parents to educate their children.“Be respectful to your dog. Research and
learnhow to ‘speakdog’. There are anumberof body signals that adogdisplays to indicatethat it is uncomfortable and needs space or
that it likeswhat you are doing. Bywatchingyour dog’s body language and understand-ing what your dog is saying, you are able tostop or change the reason for your dog feel-ing uncomfortable.“Learn what your dog likes and dislikes
and respect these needs. A dog should not betreated like a toy or tested to see how toler-ant it is. Do not poke, push or sit on a dogor pull its tail. Stop what you are doing ifa dog shows discomfort. Signs of discomfortinclude when the dog turns its head awayfrom you, when the dog yawns, flicks histongue out of his mouth or licks his nose,when the dog’s body freezes, when it movesaway, lifts its lips or growls. Also stop whatyou are doingwhen the dog showswhale-eye(pronounced whites of the eye). This is oftenmisunderstood as a ‘guilty look’ when it is
actually an appeasement gesture in re-sponse to the stimulus.”“Never corner a dog and do not reprimand
a dog when it growls. This is a language pri-or to a bite. Growling means that a personshould leave the dog alone. If your dog bitessomeone, do not place the dog in a similarsituation. If necessary, temporarily confinethe dog in a safe area with water and shelterand immediately seek the assistance of aqualified trained and professional animalbehaviourist.”Walpole says an unfamiliar dog should be
ignored.“Do not encourage an unfamiliar dog to
approach you. Quietly and calmly walkaway. Do not turn your back on the dog butrather try tohave your body facing sidewaystoward the dog,” says Walpole.
If the dog approaches to attack you, do notscream, run away or turn your back on thedog. Do not make eye contact as this is oftenperceived as confrontational.“Keep your hands close to your body and
stand still until the dog has backed away oris preferably out of sight. If you have foodon you, break it up into small pieces and un-derarm toss the food toward the dog’s head.If thedogeats, continue to toss the foodwhileslowly backing away to a safe place,” saysWalpole.You can also place something such as a
chair or backpack if available between youand the dog.“If you are unable to escape an attacking
dog, place yourself in a foetal position withyourhead tucked towardyour chest and cov-er your head with your hands.”ER24’s Dr Kumeshan Moodley, who has
treated numerous people for dog bites, saysthat anyone bitten, even if minor injuries,should visit a medical practitioner.He says that one of the main reasons for
this is the possibility of developing infec-tions or rabies. Rabies, a viral and almostalways fatal disease, is mainly transmittedby the bite of an infected animal.The virus exists in the saliva of a rabid an-
imal such as a dog.People who develop rabies could experi-
ence anything from headache, fever, vomit-ing, muscle pain, difficulty swallowing, anx-iety, profuse salivation, paralysis, restless-ness, fear of water and seizures.DrMoodley says that apersonwill notnec-
essarily develop symptoms immediately. Itis possible to only experience symptoms lat-er in life.There is no effective treatment for people
or animals once they develop rabies symp-toms. Hence it is important to seek medicalattention immediately after being bitten.“Treatment of bites depends on the severi-
ty of the injury as well as whether the dogwas a stray, a pet that was immunised or notimmunised. Where it is unknown if the dogwas immunised, as a precaution, the patientwould be treated based on assumption thatthe dog was not immunised,” said Dr Mood-ley.

In recent weeks they caught three sus-pects – one of which a 14-year-old allegedarmed robber – mere minutes after theycommitted their crimes.
During the first incident a few Saturdaynights ago, patrollers spotted three youngmen walking down Conroy Street after23:00.
“They appeared very suspect as theywalked very hurriedly and looked back in-termittently,” says member Johan Men-toor.
“We drove around the block to confrontthem on the street corner. But when we gotout of our vehicle they started runningaway.”
They managed to apprehend two of thesuspects – a man in his early twenties cur-rently under corrective supervision, and aboy of 14. The third suspect got away.
It transpired the that gang of three justminutes earlier robbed a man sitting in hiscar in front of a food outlet at a nearby shop-ping centre.
“They pointed a firearm at him and or-dered him to hand over all the valuables inthe car, which we found out from the com-plainant later were two cellphones. Thethird suspect got away with the booty andthe firearm,” said Mentoor.During another patrol last Saturday
night, they caught a burglar in the act.“We spotted himwalking down the street
and passed him on several streets. He toldus he was visiting his girlfriend, and aftersearching himwe found nothing. Much lat-er we found him still walking about and westarted following him. As we came aroundonecornera caralarmwentoff as theyoungman started running away from the vehi-cle. We caught up with him and he later ad-mitted to smashing a window.”
Police arrested him on the scene.Mentoor says the four patrollers left on
the neighbourhood watch volunteer muchof their time, especially over weekends.
“We are notmany, and residents don’t re-alise how much goes on in their streets atnight while they are sleeping.
“They don’t see what we see and maybethis iswhy they don’twant to get involved,”he says. The Peerless Park NeighbourhoodWatch recently started anewalert group onWhatsApp and encourage residents to getinvolved this way.V Contact Mentoor on 072 226 9653.

She may look like your average teenag-er, but this Stellenberg songbird Julan-ie J is anything but.
In fact, the 17-year-old has already enjoyedchart success with her debut album. WhenSpirit Breakout was released last year, itwent to number three on the South AfricaniTunes chart and placed at number 34 ontheir international chart in a matter of 24hours.Now, just a few months later, Julanie is
already cooking up something new.Until recently, she’s been performing
what she describes as “Christian contempo-rarymusic”, but this year she’smade the de-cision to move into the secular market.“I feel like it’s a bigger platform, and this
is what I love,” she explains, referring to thenew “RnB and pop” songs she’s been work-ing on.Julanie has been writing songs since she
was a child, and besides the 12 originaltracks onSpirit Breakout, and the new songsshe is writing for her upcoming FearlessHeart, due to be released in 2017, she’s alsobeenpenninghits for local and internationalartists.One of these is Congolese star Lokua Kan-
za and more recently she’s been workingwith Helmut Meijer on his new project Cal-ev. Her writing collaborations have mostlybeen a result of the response to her debut al-bum. “They liked the music and the soundof the album.” Others came after her per-formances on television shows like SABC3’sExpresso.While Julanie calls Spirit Breakout a “typ-
ical worship album with a bit of pop”, she’splanning something a little more edgy whenshe goes back into studio this time round.“Itwill haveakindof Jessie J andBeyoncé
feel,” she says, adding that she’s already en-listed the help of The Arrows’ Pamela DeMenezes for Fearless Heart.Julanie will performher first ever secular
show at Barnyard Willowbridge on Monday16May, in preparation for her performancesat the Grahamstown National Arts festival.“I’mkindof excited for that; I think it’s goingto be a fun show.”Julanie will be performing a combination
of jazz, pop, RnB andwhat she calls “fun, lis-
tenable music” with the help of sound engi-neer Duane Brown who is also the man be-hind Elvis Blue’s live sound, Winston Sil-jeur on keys and JP Crouch on drums,among others.She’ll also play some of the songs off Fear-
less Heart for the first time and says: “It’s adeep show, but on a fun level.”“It’s songs about love and people; strug-
gles they have and struggles I have.”When she returns fromGrahamstown, Ju-
lanie will be preparing for the launch of herdebut book, Hearts Can Heal.The book will be published by American
based company E-Gen and deals with over-coming abuse and her own journey of heal-ing.In themeantime,music fans can catch her
at Barnyard Willowbridge on Monday 16May at 19:30.V Tickets cost R80, R20 for children or R200 for afamily of four. Tickets can be booked at www.nuelight.co.za, [email protected] or from Julita onta Kok 079 716 4593. The show will serve as a fundraiser for Julanie’s trip to Grahamstown.V For more information about Julanie, her upcomingnews or to listen to her music, visit www.julaniej.comor ‘like’ her Facebook page.

High school learners from schools inBloekombos and Wallacedene partic-ipated in three sporting codes at a
sports festival held at Central Park sportgrounds on Thursday last week.This historic event, the first of its kind,
formed part of a holistic strategy to combatgangsterism in Kraaifontein and was pre-sented in partnership with the Associationfor Educational Transformation (Asset).Various teams from the four high schools
(Wallacedene, Bloekombos, Hector Peters-en and Masibambane) competed in soccer,rugby and netball matches.“This festival highlights our attempts to
deal with the issue of gangsterism, not only
with policing but by providing learnerswith an alternative healthy lifestyle,” saysRajan Naidoo, principal at MasibambaneHigh School.“Sport is an excellent means of develop-
ing learners holistically as it promotes ateam work ethic and instills values of re-spect, commitment and discipline.”He hopes to make this an annual event
where every participant will receive med-als to celebrate their participation.“It is not only those who come first who
are winners – everyone is a winner by sim-ply participating.”Asset, anNGObased in theWesternCape,
aims to provide opportunities for studentsfromdisadvantaged communities to realisetheir full educational potential.

On Sunday 15 May, the De Villiers Heritage41st Annual Family celebration will be tak-ing place in Stellenbosch. According to theorganisers, it is a festivity in remembranceof 327 years of the family’s heritage in SouthAfrica, and its unique purpose is to promotedialogue and discourse between the differ-ent generations. The event is open to allFrench Huguenot De Villiers descendants,irrespective of current surname, and isaimed at being inclusive to family membersof all ages.There will be a very unique Human Heri-
tage Library on the day, where a human“book” will be able to share stories of theirpast with the aim to give purpose and hopeto the current generations and helping themshape a more informed and positive future.“Our Human Heritage Library will set up
a comfortable space for dialogue and inter-action where family members are given theopportunity to speak informally with a‘book’ who tells a story about her or his life’sexperience. A ‘reader’ can enter the story byasking questions or telling about their ownexperiences. It’s up to the ‘reader’ and hu-man ‘book’ how they will use the sevenmin-utes they can spend together. The ‘books’ arevaried in age, sex and cultural background.Our 2016 theme and message is the ‘celebra-tion of life: stories of hope’,” say spokespeo-ple Trudie Retief and Joleta van Wyk.“The Human Heritage Library enables us
to challenge prejudices in a positive and hu-morous manner. It is a concrete, easilytransferable and affordable way of promot-ing tolerance, understanding and hope. Ourevent wants to be a simple and direct contri-bution to social cohesion and knowledgesharing in the De Villiers Family.”The event will be held at Hudson’s Venue
& Restaurant in Stellenbosch and combinedwith the “Heritage Library” is a buffetluncheon and optional wine tasting. Book-ings are essential.

“They don’t have much, but theystill have a body that can doamazing things.”
This is one of the key lessons Hanne LaCour says the ActionArte Foundationtries to teach the children they work with.The organisation has been using circus
performance skills to help empoweryoungpeople, especially in the Hanover Parkcommunity, and non-circus folk will get aglimpse of their non- traditional actswhenthe foundation’s core group performs atTrash Cabaret’s Carnival of Dreams atHillcrest Quarry on Saturday 14 May.The foundation was started by Hanne,
who is originally fromDenmark, andMar-lin Roos, a second generation circus per-former who has been training since theage of seven.Hanne says Marlin has always been in-
terested in learning, teaching and givingback to the community of Hanover Parkthrough free classes. She, on the otherhand, comes from a background of theatreand social projects and when the two met,they decided to combine their skills.“I was fascinated by the circus,” Hanne
says, so she started to train and travelledwithMarlin toSpain where they spent twoyears learning how to use circus trainingas a teaching method. They started offer-ingworkshops soonafter returning inJan-uary 2014.“Living in Hanover Park is hard.”Hanne highlights issues like gang vio-
lence and lack of involvement from par-ents and says ActionArte connects withchildren by keeping them off the streets,inspiring them to be creative and teachingthem about the importance of education.By teaching childrenwhat their bodies arecapable of, they also instil a sense of posi-tivity and teach children that they canchoose a better life.The foundation’s teachers use juggling,
for example, to teach children concentra-tion and reason. “To keep the balls in theair you have to want it and have to findthe rhythm and coordination.” They alsouse the juggling to teach little ones mathe-
matics. While they don’t go into the fullmathematical theory behind the art, theydo use it to teach things like times tables.Childrenwho “can’t sit still” are encour-
aged to train in acrobatics to use their en-ergy positively.The foundation’s core group is made up
of performers from the community whohave been trained as teachers and profes-sional performers. Besides training theyouth and professional classes for anyoneinterested in becoming a circus performeror get fit, they also perform regularly, of-ten at corporate events, to keep the founda-tion running and expanding.ActionArte also raises funds and reach-
es out to the community through theirSundayFunday afternoons at their base inEpping where families are invited to ex-plore their circus world.Hannewill be one of the artists perform-
ing at Trash Cabaret’s Carnival of Dreamson Saturday where she’ll be performingher speciality: hanging by her hair.The multi-cultural cabaret event will
bring together burlesque dancers, acro-

Three days ofpaternityleave a joke!I’ve had bags under my eyes for so longthat I named them.It’s no coincidence that they’re named
after my two toddlers – Joshua andAmélie.I’m writing this from the perspective of
a very involved and very tired fatherwho gets just as little sleep as his wife.This weekend I went to a well-known
shopping centre in the northern suburbswith my kids and were met by a veryadamant and somewhat sarcastic securityguard.While I was unloading screaming child
number one, the guard marched towardsme and indicated that I was not allowedto park there. He furiously pointedtowards the sign reading “Moms & Tots”.The guard reasoned that I was clearly
not a mom, despite the exaggerated bagsunder my eyes hanging so low that Ineeded a bra.I refused to move the car and flatly
ignored the man.Yet, he had a point!I’m not a mom. Sowhy on earth arethere no “Dads &Tots” parkingspaces?Little did I know
my day was aboutto go from bad toworse.Screaming child
number two had adirty nappy andmuch to mydismay I discov-ered that the baby
changing area was located in the wom-en’s rest rooms.These two issues are more than just a
personal gripe.It affects every single dad, and even
more so every single single dad!As if us poor souls don’t have enough
on our plates already.It’s quite clearly a case of gross sexual
discrimination and tests a tired father’snerves to the extreme.Someone with more energy needs to do
something about it.And don’t get me started on the differ-
ence between maternity and paternityleave in South Africa!A mother needs time to heal physically
and emotionally. In most cases she needsto breastfeed every three hours, so theyobviously need to spend a long time athome after giving birth.A father’s role during this time is
nothing to scoff at, especially if he mustget up to go to work in the morning.Three days of paternity leave is a joke.

spuitfontein bestaan uit sesblombeddings, waarvan slegseen met roosbome beplant isterwyl klippe welig in dieander lê. By die ingang na dieskouburg is vier groot pot-planthouers. In twee van hullegroei ’n boompie, maar dieander twee is sonder plante enstaan doelloos daar. Sommigeletters van die Engelse bewoor-ding van stadskouburg is weg.Voordat ek my sitplek
ingeneem het, het ek in dievoorportaal vertoef.Die kunsmatige plante en
blomme is oud, stowwerig enafgeleef en ontsier meer as watdit versier. Ek wou regtig nieop die rusbanke in die voorpor-taal sit nie. Die bekleedsel isvuil en dit blink omrede ditlankal vervang moes geweeshet. Die mat is plek-plek volvuil kolle. Dit kan maklikskoongemaak word of dievierkantige matteëls kanvervang word. Ek kan nie trotswees op ons stadskouburg nie.Ek doen ’n beroep op onsstadsvaders om aandag aan dieprobleem te gee.

to purchase some sweets and acooldrink at the convenieceshop located at the premises.I parked in one of the parking
bays opposite the pump sta-tions, when I noticed out of thecorner of my eye that a manstood with clenched fistsslightly to the far right of mycar.At first I did not process that
this was actually happening –but when I looked again hestarted to come closer to myvehicle with his clenched fistsand threatening behaviour.Immediately I felt threatenedand started to move my car outof the bay whilst franticallyhooting to get the attention ofthe petrol attendants who justlooked on.By this time I was thinking of
my son who might be steppingout soon from the shop to getback into the car. This manmight hurt him as it lookedthat he was ready to pounce mycar or us. As I hooted, andmoved off, the guy chased mewith clenched fists whilst mydaughter, who is eight yearsold, was screaming franticallyand crying in the car that “hewas coming” and calling herbrother’s name. I tried toremain calm and exited thepremises to throw him off (myson was not out of the shop yet)but he was still in pursuit ofus.At the robot, I made another
U-turn to get back on thepremises to get my son, prayingthat he might still be in theshop.I drove straight in front of
the shop and screamed for myson, who had exited the shop bynow and thankfully stood onthe side. At this time the manwas pinned down by themanagement and when myhusband called later, he wasinformed matter-of-factly thatthe man was a “troublemaker”and was taken away by thepolice.As you can well imagine, my
daughter and I were completelytraumatised by the incident andI had to take her to the doctor.She and I will be going forcounselling for post-traumaticstress – all because of this

International Nurses Day will be celebrat-ed tomorrow to commemorate the birth-day of Florence Nightingale, one of the
most well-known nurses of all time.It is a day where nurses worldwide are
thanked for everything they do for thosewho are sick and frail.In line with the global recognition to en-
sure healthy lives and to promotewell-beingfor all, no matter their age, gender or socialstatus, the health departement has adopteda “wellness focus” in their 2016/2017 ap-proach.According to Dr Marie-Paule Kieny, as-
sistant director-general for health systemsand innovation, the WHO (including theWorld Bank 2015), the world’s most disad-vantaged people aremissing out on even themost basic health services. Health policiesand programmes should therefore focus onproviding quality health services for thepoorest people, women and children, peopleliving in rural areas and those fromminori-ty groups.Most people think about hospital staff
when referring to nurses, however there aremany organisations who employ nurses, as-sistant nurses, carers and home-based car-ers to provide health care services to thosein need.
BadisaBadisa, a social work organisation deliv-
ering services in theWestern, Northern andSouthern Cape for instance, employs 127home-based carers who provided care to3716 frail patients during the past year. Thisis apart from the professional nursing staffemployed to provide care to the disabled andthose being treated for substance abuse.
There are also many Badisa programmesthat deliverhealth-care services toprevious-ly disadvantaged communities. One such anexample is Badisa’s Huis Magdalena in Bos-ton, Bellville,which adopts “TheFirst Thou-sand Days” approach in a child’s life andprovides education and assistance to preg-nant women who are at risk due to their so-cial circumstances.These preventative services contribute to
healthier pregnancies, better parentalskills, as well as life and entrepreneurialskills, and also include adoption counsel-ling.
12week courseThe women partaking in these day-care
programmes come from the informal settle-ments of the northern suburbs of CapeTown, such as Klipheuwel, Fisantekraal,Bloekombos, Scottsdene and Wallacedene,and are referred toBadisa by their local clin-ics.Sixty women have attended a 12-week
course during the past year, which includeddaily transport to the training facility aswell as balanced meals.Clicks Pharmacies also extended their as-
sistance to Huis Magdalena in this regardand three dedicated clinics are involved inassisting with family planning, HIV testing,education about STDs during pregnancy,preparation for labour, post natal care aswell as baby vaccinations and milestones.According to Stephny du Plessis, the pro-
grammemanager at HuisMagdalena, this istruly a winning partnership between Mag-dalena and the health sector.V To donate to this worthy cause, send an email [email protected]

When seven-year-old Tyrone Siljeur fromBonteheuwel got a crayon stuck in his earearlier this month, his parents went into abit of a panic, but help was at hand.They took him to a private doctor, but a
small piece remained lodged in his ear andhe was referred to the Red Cross Children’sHospital.Thanks to some generous sponsorship
from Woolworths and MySchool, Tyronewill underwent a small procedure under an-aesthetic to have the crayon removed.If you are part of the MySchool initiative,
you played your part when you did yourChristmas shopping atWoolworths over thefestive season. This led to the donation ofR400 000 that was handed to the Children’sHospital Trust, the fundraising arm of RedCross last week.The donation has been used by the trust
to purchase specialist ear, nose and throat(ENT) equipment that will enable the hospi-
tal each year to help save the lives of ten chil-dren with life-threatening ear diseases andprevent hearing loss in 750 children.Tyrone’s mom Marlene and dad Mornay
were very happy that their son was finallygoing to have a clear ear canal once again.“We are so grateful to the Red Cross Chil-
dren’s Hospital, MySchool and Woolworthsfor the equipment that allows for these typesof operations,” said Mornay.“I don’t know what we would have done
otherwise and I know that Tyrone was invery good hands.The Woolworths Christmas Giving cam-
paignwas supported by internationalmusicsensation Pharrel Williams, and funds wereraised as a special additional donation everytime a customers swiped their MySchoolMyVillage MyPlanet and their linked Wool-worths cards.“Woolworths and MySchool are such val-
ued supporters of the Children’s HospitalTrust and the Red Cross Children’s Hospi-tal,” says Louise Driver, CEO of the Chil-dren’s Hospital Trust.

’n Nuwe leraar in Durbanville wil ’nbediening “wat nuut en anders is”vir studente en jongmense in Dur-
banville begin.Ds. Hanno Ackerman, wat nuut is by die
NG Kerk Sonstraal, wil ’n gemeenskap skepvir die jeug, studente en jongmense met ’nnuwe “Ignite”-erediens in Engels én Afri-kaans op Sondae van 18:00 tot 19:00 by diekerk op die hoek van Tulip- en Hebronstraatin Amanda Glen.“As jy op soek is na ’n plek om deel te voel
van die community enwaar jy spiritueel kangroei, is hierdie bediening vir jou,” nooi Ac-kerman.“Ek is self nog in my twintigs en besef dat
jong volwassenes dit noodsaaklik vind ombetrokke te wees in ’n bediening wat nuuten anders is.“Die erediens is ’n aanddiens wat meer in
’n kontemporêre styl aangebied word as dietradisionele erediens.“Ek kom van Gauteng af, waar ek meestal
betrokke was by bedienings wat meer gefo-
kus was op moderne worship en prediking.“Indiekort tydperkwat ek indieKaapbly,
besef ek dat hier baie jong volwasse menseis wat in Durbanville werk, bly of van hieraf swot.“Ek glo ’n mens het ’n community nodig
en kort ander insette en denke in jou lewe.Dis waarom ek jongmense wil aanmoedigom by enige bediening in Durbanville aante sluit, wat ook al jou tipe spiritualiteitpas,” sê hy.“Ek wil nie hê jongmense moet ’n skuif
maak tussen gemeentes as hulle gemaklikvoel waar hulle is nie. As jy egter nie ’n plekhet nie en in die area woon, is jy welkom omdeel te word van die bediening.“Diegene wat worstel met die idee van
godsdiens of geloof, is ook welkom om be-trokke te raak en saam met ons ’n pad testap,” nooi hy verder.Hy beoog ook om ’n kursus aan te bied vir
jongmense, wat worstel met die vrae rond-om godsdiens en geloof, met die titel “TheQuestion of Life”.
Bediening vir jongmense begin
Ds. Hanno Ackerman is hier in aksie tydens ’n “Ignite”erediens op Sondag 17 April.

Die Bellville-Rotariërklub hettydens sy weeklikse vergade-ring vir Maureen Venter, be-
stuurder van die Tygerberg-hos-pies, en suster Denise Sago genooiom die lede van die klub in te ligoor hul palliatiewe sorg en dienste.Volgens Henriette Venter, ska-
kelbeampte van die Rotariërklub,is die diens en versorging wat diehospies bied oral bekend,maar eenkeer ’n jaar word hul toewyding endiens gedurende ’n hospiesweekgehuldig.“Die Rotariërklub is in verskeie
opsigte baie betrokke by die hos-pies.“Die pasiënte word nie net me-
dies versorg nie, maar daar wordook omgesien na al hulle en die fa-milie se behoeftes.“In die gemeenskap het die Ty-
gerberg-hospies gesondheidswer-
kerswat ’ndiens lewermethul ver-sorging om te verseker dat diemaksimum gerief en gemak vandie pasiënt gehandhaaf word,” hetMaureen gesê.“Die Tygerberg-hospies het aan-
sienlik gegroei sedert die totstand-koming in 1995 toe ’n groep vrouebesluit het dat die noordelike stad-gebied so ’n fasiliteit nodig het.“In die begin is daar nou saamge-
werk met St. Luke’s-hospies totdatdie Tygerberg-hospiesstigting ge-vestig is. Barry Evans het vir baiejare as voorsitter van die stigtinggedien.“Onlangs het hy besluit om terug
te staan en die leisels te oorhandigaanBryanMackrell,wat ookbydiestigting diens gedoen het.“Albei mans is aktiewe lede van
die Bellville-Rotariërklub,” hetHenriette gesê.“Dit is duidelik dat die diens nie
kan bestaan sonder die ondersteu-
ning van die gemeenskap wat ge-dien word nie.Vrywilligers word altyd benodig
en daar is baie maniere waarop jy’n verskil kan maak in iemand selewe, al kan jy net ’n uur of tweedaaraan bestee.“Geldelik is die hospies ook af-
hanklik van skenkings en geldin-samelingsprojekte.“Die Pizza Pub in Kraaifontein
stap al ’n lang pad met die Tyger-berg-hospies.“Jaarliks maak hulle ’n sken-
king aan die hospies van geld watingesamel word deur hul deelne-mende kliënte.“Die skenkingsword aangewend
vir die voorkoming en verligtingvan lyding, die vroeë identifise-ring, assessering en behandelingvan pyn en ander probleme,” hetMaureen gesê.V Skakel die Tygerberghospies by021 946 2460 vir meer inligting.

SAREL BURGER
Die Tygerberg-klub bly op die wenpad, Dur-banville-Bellville sit die Universiteit vanWes-Kaapland ore aan en Brackenfell keilHamiltons goed op. Dít was van die rugby-glanspunte die afgelope naweek in die WPse Superliga-kompetisie.
Tygerberg wil nog nie weet van verloornie en dié slag moes Belhar dit ontgeld. DieAccordeon Park-span het nog tot met rustydgoed saamgesels, maar Tygerberg se voor-hoede het algaande heeltemal die oorhandgekry om die weg te baan na ’n sege van 36-19. Durbell se vaart en vaardighede agter-langs was een te veel vir UWK en die Durbieshet met 29-8 geseëvier. Brackenfell (28-28 tHamiltons) en Noordelikes/Northlink-kol-lege (23-36 t Kuilsrivier) se wedstryde hetmin of meer dieselfde patroon gevolg.
Hammies en die Kuile het aanvanklik diepap dik aangemaak en albei ’n stewige voor-sprong opgebou. Maar in die tweede helftehet Brackenfell en Noordelikes hul stem dik-gemaak en het met beter spel as hul teen-standers die puntegaping laat krimp.
In die B-afdeling van die Superliga hetKraaifontein onverwags met 22-26 teen St.George vasgeval. Ook die Kraaie se bure,Hands & Heart, het met 26-35 in die stof gebytteen Hamlets, terwyl Goodwood met 17-27teen Young Peoples verloor het. Unie-Mil-nerton was met 34-6 Helderberg se meerdere.
Vanaand (Woensdag) speel Brackenfell enTygerberg tuis teen onderskeidelik die Ma-ties en Victoriane. Die komende Saterdag seprogram (tuisspan eerste) is: UWK t Belhar,Durbell t Primrose, Pniël Villagers t Unimil,Goodwood t Violets, Hands & Heart t Strand,Kraaifontein t Bellville.

Meer blootstelling van vrouerugbyop televisie en in koerante sal diésportsoort aan die breë publiek be-
kend stel.Só gesels Chané Stadler van Proteahoog-
te in Brackenfell. Sy is skrumskakel en los-skakel van die vroue-Blitsbokke.
Die Blitsdoedies het verlede maand dieHong Kong-sewestoernooi gewen, maar sywas nie deel van die wenspan nie.
“Ek is verlede jaar voor die Dubai-toer-nooi deur die afrigter, Renfred Dazel, opge-roep net nadat ek vir die WP aan die inter-provinsiale sewestoernooi deelgeneemhet. Dit was ook my eerste reis oorsee endaarna is ek gekies vir die span vir Las Ve-gas, waar ek ’n ernstige kniebesering opge-doen het. Ek is tans besig met rehabilitasieen hopelik is ek binnekort weer terug opdie veld.”
Altyd sportbehep“Ek was nog altyd sportbehep en my lief-
de vir rugby het op laerskool in graad 3 be-gin. Naweke het ek saam met my pa, Fanie,Curriebeker en Superrugby gekyk.
Min van my spanmaats weet dat ek oplaerskool saam met seuns rugby gespeelhet en dat ek eers verlede jaar 15’s beginspeel het nie,” skerts sy.
“Om deur Renfred en Paul Delport, tweeseweslegendes, afgerig te word, is ’n eer.
“Ek leer baie by hulle van albei kodesen kan nie vir beter afrigters gevra het nie.Dis moeilik om een iets van die Blitsdoe-dies uit te sonder, want alles werk saamom ons ’n hegte eenheid te maak. Ek leerook by van my spanmaats wat al lank rug-by speel en wanneer ons aan toernooie
deelneem, luister en leer jy by die anderspanne oor hoe hulle dinge doen.
“My rugbyheld is Gio Aplon, want virmy het hy gewys dat jou grootte nie op dieveld saak maak nie. Jy kan die grootsteverskil maak as jy in jouself glo. Dalk ookomdat ek nie so groot gebou is nie, is hyvir my ’n rolmodel. Elke vrou wat rugbyspeel, dwing ook my bewondering af.
“Ek het geleer dat om rugby te speel, virelke vrou iets anders beteken en dis op ’n
manier ook ’n inspirasie vir vroue oor diealgemeen.
“Omdat ek in die spelskepper-posisiespeel, bring ek ’n aanvallende spel en gaandit hand-aan-hand met ’n leierskapsrol.
“Dis my werk by albei kodes om die kan-se raak te sien en dan daarvolgens te be-sluit watter aanvalle van stapel gestuur ofwatter taktiek toegepas moet word,” sêChané.
Sy het ’n diploma in afrigtingsweten-skap, maar omdat rugby nou ’n voltydseberoep is, is daar nie nou kans om verderte studeer nie, maar sy sou graag wou.
Maak opofferings“As rugbyspeler maak jy baie opoffe-
rings en dis harde werk, maar ek is vandie gelukkiges wat kan sê ek doen waar-voor ek lief is.
“Rugby is my lewe en wanneer ek nierugby speel nie, speel ek rekenaarspele-tjies en gaan kyk gereeld nuwe flieks.
“Ek het tot verlede jaar nog klubhokkie,krieket en aksie-krieket gespeel en het opskool aan atletiek en landloop deelgeneem.
“My ouma, Johanna, alombekend asKleintjie, is van kleintyd my grootste in-spirasie. Sy het my altyd aangemoedig ommy beste in alles te gee. Sy ondersteun my100% en het my ook geleer dat alles watoor ’n mens se pad kom, met rede daar is.
“Alles hang van jou af of jy gaan besluitof dit jou kan maak of breek. “Elke keeras ek tuis speel, is my ouers daar. Hulleis ook my steunpilare wanneer dit goedgaan en ook wanneer dit nie so goed gaannie. Al die meisies woon by StellenboschAcademy of Sport en baie van hulle het ookakademiese kwalifikasies, maar rugby isnou ons almal se eerste prioriteit,” sê sy.

KLUBRUGBY: AFRIGTER GESELS
AVRIL FILLIES
Die rugbyklub Durbell pak Primrose Saterdagin ’n Superliga A-wedstryd op Primrose setuisveld.
Durbell is tans die houers van die Cell C Commu-nityCup, noubekendasdieGouebeker, endieklubfokus daarop om die Superliga vanjaar te wen.
Volgens Bobby Joubert, Durbell se afrigter,word daar nie spelers in sy span uitgesonder nie,wantdit is ’n spanpogingenelkeenmaaksybydraeom tot die sukses van die span by te dra.
“Ons het waarlik ’n jong dinamiese span metgeen uitblinkers nie, maar eerder onselfsugtige in-dividue wat in die span se visie inkoop. Benewensdie Gouebeker speel ons in die Superliga A van dieWP se klubkompetisie, waar ons onder meer teenspanne soos Maties, Ikeys, Hamiltons, Valsbaai enTygerberg speel. Ná ons sukses verlede jaar in dieCell C Community Cup-kompetisie het ons vyfdein die Superliga-kompetisie geëindig,” sê hy.
“Die Gouebeker-kompetisie is baie belangrik virdie volhoubaarheid van klubspelers wat nie stu-deer nie en dit bied hulle ook die geleentheid omkontrakte los te speel, omdat die wedstryde op tele-visie uitgesaai word. ’n Voorbeeld hiervan isGarth April, wat by ons klub was en tans losskakelvir die Sharks in die Superugby-kompetisie speel.
“Hy het juis onlangs eiehandig die Sharks sepunte (15) in hul sege van 15-14 oor die Highlandersin Dunedin met sy skopvoet aangeteken,” sê hy.
Bobby is geen onbekende aan provinsiale rugbynie. Hy was van 2008 tot 2010 die heelagter van dieSWD-Arende en hy ken van onder druk speel, enwat die verwagtinge is van jou spanmaats, onder-steuners en bestuur. “Ná my SWD-dae het ek byDurbell aangesluit en het tien wedstryde vir dieklub gespeel. Daarna is ek aangestel as hulp-afrig-ter van die eerste span saam met Jan Loubser.
“Voordat ek by die SWD aangesluit het, het ek
in 2007/2008 in Frankryk vir die klub Aurillacoisgespeel en het bietjie oorsese ondervinding opge-doen. Dit was altyd my droom om eendag my rug-bykennis aan ander oor te dra en te deel en ek hetnou die kans hier by Durbell. Garth was die eerstespeler wat ek onder hande geneem en gehelp hetom sy skopwerk te verbeter,” sê Bobby.
Maar hoe het dit gekom dat hy by afrigting be-trokke geraakhet? “Carel Steenkamp, die destydsevoorsitter in 2015, het my as speler genader, wantek was verantwoordelik vir die ontwikkelingspro-gramme by die klub. Om afrigting te doen, was ’nnatuurlike oorgangsproses.
“Die klub is baie betrokke in die gemeenskap enhelp met afrigting en speler-ontwikkeling onderdie vaandel van die Masibambane-sportstigting.
“Twee spelers wat juis uit die ontwikkeling-strukture van die stigting kom en op wie ons baietrots is, is Roderick Moses en Angus Cleophas.
“Albei was verlede jaar deel van die wenspanwat die Cell C Community Cup gewen het. Jy moetonthou die spanne wat in die Gouebeker-kompeti-sie speel, is goeie spanne en dis nie net sommervir oor hulle loop om te wen nie.
“Ek dink ons kan vanjaar kwaai teenstand ver-wag van Rustenburg Impala, Pretoria Polisie enValsbaai. Eersgenoemde sal hul nederlaag in dieeindstryd wil wreek, so ons is bewus daarvan datalmal nou ’n teiken op ons rug geplaas het.
“Nog ’n provinsiale speler wat by die klub be-trokke is, is Ashton Constant, gewese Bolandse enSWD-haker. Hy is baie betrokke by die voorspe-lers. Een van die spelers wat vanjaar dalk die WPse o.21-span kan haal, is Etienne Swarts, maar onshet ook ’n paar sewesspelers in die WP se sewes-groep, soos Jason Kriel, Jacqus Fick, Christie vanNiekerk en Jos Malherbe.
“Rugby is ’n sport waar ervaring ’n groot rolspeel en dit is belangrik dat oud-spelers by hulklubs betrokke raak.”

Nadat sake hierdie seisoen tot verledeweek nie vir die HS Bellville se eersterugbyspan heeltemal na wense verloophet nie, het die Bellvilliete die afgelopeSaterdag die stang vasgebyt en HSStrand met 26-12 pak gegee.
Stellenberghet die sterk spanvanPaulRoos aanvanklik mooi in toom gehou,maar moes uiteindelik met 8-34 bes gee.
Ditwasveral goeie skrumwerkenkon-struktiewe spel wat Brackenfell met 27-19 teen die toerspan van HS Windhoeklaat wen het, terwyl ook D.F. Malan metsy oorheersing voorlangs die grondslaggelê het vir die sege van 43-21 oor Monu-mentpark.
In ’n toiingrige wedstryd waarin HSTygerberg se teenstander, Primrose,meer daarin belang gestel het om die Tie-re se spelers af te knou as om rugby te
speel, was Tygerberg bobaas met 21-3.Durbanville (26-26 t Hugenote) en De
Kuilen (0-23 t HS Swartland) was onsuk-sesvol met hul kuiertjies in die Boland,terwyl President hom ná sy onlangse te-rugslae mooi reggeruk en Edgemead met29-10 laat les opsê het.

At the tender age of twelve Enya van Ni-ekerk etched her name in history onThursday 7 April as the youngest fe-
male swimmer ever to swim from Robben Is-land to Blouberg Strand.
Whatmakes this feat evenmoreremarkable is the fact that shebraved the icy cold water withoutawetsuit. Enya’s attempt is recog-nised by Cape Long DistanceSwim Association (CLDSA).
The Table View PrimarySchool learner completed the7.5km distance in a time of threehours and 14 minutes.
“I trained five months for thisswimming in the ocean with thewater being between 13 and 15 degrees.
“Some days were tougher than others, butin the end it was all worth it. Besides the coldwater, I also had to dodge hundreds of jelly-fish which required focus to navigate it safely
to the end.“Brendan Hiscock who swam with me en-
couraged me and helped a lot. The first halfwas pretty easy, but soon after that the tideturned against us and it took a lot of mentaltoughness to complete the distance. I kept im-
agining I was in a hot tub,” laugh-ed Enya.
Her father, Leon, took her toBig Bay every day for her to com-plete her 2km swim. The goal wasto do 10km every week.
“I am a very proud dad. Enyashowed tremendous courage anda fighting spirit for five months.In the end all the sacrifices wereworth it. It was something shewanted to do and now she cantick the box,” said Leon.
Enya is a member of the Nippers Big BayLifesavingClub. “I enjoy spending time in thesea and I will definitely do the swim again inthe future; let’s just hope the sea will be calmand make it a little bit easier.”
