Pastor Adam Alexander is celebrating 20 years of being back on his feet and living the life he had always imagined. “I never thought I would be in that situa- tion all those years ago, but due to personal psychological problems I did – I was living on the streets with no direction in life,” he says. However, through the support of his wife and family he turned his life around to en- sure a better quality of life – not only for him- self, but also for that of his family. “My family never gave up on me and when I was reintroduced to Christianity I believed again and had hope for change. “Now I want to use my experience and help those who are currently living on the streets,” he says. On Friday 27 May and Sunday 29 May Al- exander and his family and churchgoers from the Christ Community Church in Uit- sig will hand out blankets and hot soup in various locations. “We have identified areas where there are large numbers of homeless people. “We want to interact with them and see how we can assist them with getting back on- to their feet or finding the help they need,” he says. Alexander explains that through their in- teraction with the homeless, they hope to in- tegrate them into their communities. “I strongly believe that integration is a process, and this is part of our strategy and technique to reach out to the street people,” he says. His team is also planning on making the streets their “home” this weekend. They’ll be sleeping among the homeless, with the hope of bringing awareness around the issue. “We need people to partner with us to make this event a success,” he says. “I believe that together we can bring change.

As the popularity of social media sitesand chat groups continues to grow,experts have warned parents to be
aware of a growing trend in cyberbullying.Speaking to parents during a recent pub-
lic meeting in Table View, Evan Booyens ofDa Vinci Forensics explains cyberbullyingis when someone uses the internet, cell-phones and other technological devices tosend or post text or images intended to hurt,embarrass, threaten, torment, humiliate orintimidate their victim.He says while cyberbullying is rampant
in countries like America, leading to vari-ous emotional problems in teens and insome cases suicide, South African teenswere slowly starting to feel the impact. Sim-ilar to the old fashioned form of bullying,Booyens explains various tactics such asgossip, threats and trickery are used amongchildren. However when online these tac-tics are amplified as the bullies can now tor-ment others anonymously.In the online space, he says, new tactics
are used andmost disturbing is the creationof fake social media profiles.Here the bully creates a Facebook page or
any other form of social media account andposes as their victim, placing embarrassingor false posts.In South Africa the most commonly used
social media site is Facebook and Booyenssays in most cases girls are the perpetra-tors.
“There are various reasons children dothis. They include revenge, power, enter-tainment, stupidity or problems at home.”Booyens says the effects on the victim
range from sadness and anxiety to depres-sion, anger and in some cases, suicide.So why is cyberbullying so hurtful? Be-
cause in a digital age, bullying is not fleet-ing. Booyens explains at the top of the listis the permanence of a hurtful post on socialmedia. Here the insults, comments or imag-es can be preserved by the person who wasbullied or others can read or view it againand the harm is reinflicted each time.According to international studies, 92.6%
of teens say cruel behaviour takes place onFacebook. Booyens says those same studiesindicate that 65.8% of teens responded totheir bullies of which 35% where personalconfrontations.Booyens says while South African teens
were not as hard hit by cyberbullying, it’simportant for parents to be aware of the po-tential dangers.“It won’t take that long for our children
to be hit hard by this and it’s already hap-pening on Facebook. There are some simpleways to help prevent it.”First on the list is for parents tohave their
children’s social media passwords. He sayswhile teenswill complain about their priva-cy being violated, it is important for parentstohaveaccess tomonitor their interactions.He says parents should encourage their
children to speak up if they are being bul-lied and should be taught how to block theirbullies from their social media accounts.

Vir baie vroue is Huis Jabes, ’n veiligehuis vir slagoffers van gesinsgeweld,die heel, heel laaste uitweg.
En al kan nie elkeen wat uit nood skakel– soms selfs sover as van Namibië, by diéhuis gehuisves word nie, word geeneen vandie vroue net weggewys en aan hul eie gena-de oorgelaat nie, vertel Elize Smith, wat se-dert kort ná die ontstaan van Huis Jabes agtjaar gelede deeltyds as ’n maatskaplike wer-ker by dié toevlugsoord werk.
Volgens Smith dra die huidige swak eko-nomiese tye beslis by tot ’n toename in ge-sinsgeweld, en is Huis Jabes tans vol met 12inwoners, van wie vyf vroue en sewe kindersis. En met ’n lang waglys ...
Om in die groeiende behoefte te kan blyvoorsien, wil Huis Jabes die huis wat hulletans huur, koop maar benodig fondse daar-voor.
Drank en dwelms“Mans gee hulle oor aan drank en dwelms,
of kan nie die stres hanteer nie, en raak danaggressief.
“Hulle weet nie hoe om te cope nie. Menseword by hul huise uitgesit en die mans raakaggressief of verbaal aggressief en blameerdie vrou.
“Waar daar ’n geskiedenis was van gesins-geweld, soos as die man self in só ’n huisgrootgeword het, of as daar voortdurendkonflik of middelafhanklikheid is, dra ditdikwels by tot gesinsgeweld – ook toestandesoos depressie en bipolêre gemoedstoe-stand,” sê sy.
“Kinders neem hierdie gesinsgeweld waaren in 98% van die kinders wat geassesseeris, manifesteer sulke kinders ook met ergekonflikgedrag. Daar is gevalle van kinderswat hul ma slaan, want hulle dink dis nor-maal.
“Dit neem jare se intensiewe psigoterapieom sulke gedrag af te leer. Sulke kindersvaar dikwels swak op skool, maak bed nat,verlaat vroeg die skool en trou vroeg of raakswanger. Baie beland in verkeerde verhou-dings,” vertel sy.
Baie gevalle word deur skole en kerke naHuis Jabes verwys, vertel sy.
Sedert die beginSedert Huis Jabes in Julie 2008 begin het,
is ’n totaal van 934 gevalle telefonies of pere-pos hanteer van oor die land heen, terwyl462 vroue en kinders in Huis Jabes opge-neem is, waar hulle tussen drie tot ses maan-de gebly het om weer op hul eie voete te kom.
In een van die mees intense gevalle het ’nman gedreig om sy gesin in hul huis doodte brand.
“Toe hy na ’n winkel toe ry om nog para-fien en blitz te gaan koop, het ek in my kargespring om hulle te gaan haal. Die vrou hetmet haar drie kinders met vier Checkers-sakke met hul klere voor die deur gestaan.
“Die vrou het vertel hoe haar man al diemiddag haar onderklere met ’n skêr stuk-kend gesny het en agter in die erf begin vuurmaak het. Ek weet nie wat van hulle sou ge-raak het as ons hulle nie daardie dag gaanhaal het nie,” sê sy.
“Nadat ons ’n interdik teen die man gekryhet en die kinders in ander skole geplaas het,het ons begin om haar en haar kinders weerop te bou. Sy is vandag uiters suksesvol inhaar beroep.”
Beangste vrouIn ’n ander geval het ’n beangste vrou, met
’n mes onder haar kopkussing, in die middelvan die nag vir Huis Jabes gebel nadat haarman, ’n mediese dokter, gedreig het om haarte skiet.
“Sy is deur ’n sekerheidsmaatskappy totby die polisiekantoor geneem, waar ons haargekry en gehelp het om ’n interdik teen haar
man te kry.”Volgens Smith was hierdie een van min
gevalle waar die man en sy gesin ná behan-deling versoen het.
“Versoening gebeur nie dikwels nie – inslegs so agt gevalle per jaar,” sê sy.
“Mishandeling gaan oor mag en beheer.Vroue se bankkaarte word afgevat, die mansê wat geëet en ge-drink moet word.
“Maar daar is altydhoop, jy kan die si-klus breek met tera-pie. Vroue moet be-sluit – wil jy daarmeesaamlewe of ’n betertoekoms vir jouselfen jou kinders hê.”
Fokus op slagoffersVolgens Adri Klindt, stigter van Huis Ja-
bes, is hierdie vroue gewone mense op dieoog af, versorg en modern aangetrek.
“Ongelukkig is hul harte en lewens stuk-kend geskeur, omdat hul uitgelewer wordaan die genade van genadelose persone bin-ne ’n huwelik of verhouding.
“Wanneer die gordyne van hul woningsaans toegetrek word, heers daar ’n beklem-mende gevoel in hul binneste van wanhoopen ongekende vrees. Soms het ek die geskreeen slaanhoue oor die telefoon gehoor en danhet ek geweet ons moet dadelik ’n bus vanPort Nolloth – of vliegtuigkaartjie Chats-worth toe koop – net om veiligheid aan diévrou en haar kinders te verleen,” sê Klindt.
Soms geskied die mishandeling baie sub-tiel deur die weerhouding van finansies enbasiese behoeftes, emosionele afkraking enskending, vloek- en skeltaal, asook die afta-keling van selfbeeld en –waarde as vrou.
“Weens die tawwe ekonomiese klimaatwat tans heers, is dit ’n moeilike taak om ’nvolhoubare diens te lewer. Ons weet egterdat ons al ’n verskil in baie vroue en hul kin-
ders se lewens gemaak het en steeds doen.“Vroue kom by ons veilige hawe aan met
net die nodige in plastieksakkies of ’n enkeletas – soms in duur motors en soms te voetof deur ’n kennis of vriendin afgelaai.
“Die vroue is lewensmoeg en die kindersse ogies verward en vol trane ... alles is agter-gelaat in die vooruitsig van ’n nuwe lewe wat
net Huis Jabes kanbied.
“Nadat hul gesta-biliseer is, word hul-le by programme in-geskakel om hul self-vertroue enmenswaardigheid opte bou. Hul verbeterhul ouerskapsvaar-dighede, bekom ’n in-
terdik, begin met ’n aansoek om egskeiding,leer om weer die arbeidsmark te betree,asook uiting te gee aan hul talente en vaar-dighede.
“Die kinders moet by ’n nuwe skool inge-skryf word, nuwe skoolklere en boeke moetgekoop word,” sê Klindt.
Afhanklik van donasiesHoewel Huis Jabes fokus op slagoffers uit
middel- tot hoëinkomstegroepe, word andervroue nie weggewys nie. “Ons verwys hullena ander instansies soos onder meer Famsa,prokureurs en skuilings, en help hulle metinterdikte en ander behoeftes,” sê Smith.
Huis Jabes is egter afhanklik van donasiesom hierdie hierdie spesialisdiens te kan le-wer.
“Ons wil baie graag die huis koop waarindie vroue tans woon, maar kan dit slegs doenindien voldoende fondse en bemiddeling vandie publiek en skenkers geskied,” sê Klindt.V Mense wat tot Huis Jabes wil bydra, kan Adri Klindtby 083 564 3313 of per epos na [email protected].

body-building clubs or individuals to join inthe event.“We are in need of funding as 11 of our

funds which they require to participate incompetitions, but hope that with supportfrom the community they will be able tocompete in all competitions they are invitedto.“We have young people who come from
all over with very different and some verysimilar backgrounds who have a love forthis sport, and due to circumstances strug-gle a bit to keep on, but we find a way tokeep them around, to train them and to sup-port them in their goals,” he says.Trout is callingon the communityofBish-

DESIRÉE RORKE@dezzierorke
With the advent of the newMunicipalPlanning Tribunal (MPT), the de-velopmental landscape of Cape
Town will be changing fast and furious.The MPT, consisting of a panel of town
planners only,will give effect to new legisla-tion to bring town planning into alignmentwith the transformation that has takenplace in other facets of local government.The determination of all land use applica-
tions and future developments will thus betaken out of the hands of local ward council-lors, who traditionally “represented” theinterests of their constituents at council lev-el.Executive mayor Patricia de Lille said
that the new process was designed to pro-vide fairness and equality and to readdressprevious wrongs brought about by Apart-heid planning.“Therefore itwill bring about amore inte-
grated, high density city, where all peoplewill be living closer to their places ofwork,”she said.“One of the objectives is to reduce travel
times and congestion on Cape Town roads.”De Lille was speaking at the recent con-
ference of the of the Western Cape Develop-ment Forum (WCDF) held in Century City.MPTs were made mandatory in all prov-
inces by the Spatial Planning and Land UseManagement Act (SPLUMA) in 2013.In Cape Town, sittings of the MPT com-
menced inOctober last year, whence 180 ap-plications have been determined. Of theseless than 2% were refused.
Not a new conceptDavid Daniels, chairperson of Cape
Town’s first MPT, explained the concept ofmunicipal planning tribunals.“It is not a new concept being introduced
in the Development Facilitation Act (DFA)inGauteng in 1995, but found to beunconsti-tutional,” he said. “The idea was again pur-sued in the 2001 White Paper on SpatialPlanning with the core notion that decisionmaking on town planning matters are tech-nical in nature and should therefore bedone by practitioners with the relevanttechnical proficiency.”Even though new local government legis-
lationwas introduced to governmunicipali-ties, local governments proceeded to devel-op their own Spatial Development Frame-works with limited policy or politicalguidance. Landuse decisionswere thus stillbeing decided in terms of the old order Landuse Planning Ordinance (LUPO).The new order legislationwas introduced
in the Western Cape in 2014 by the WesternCape Land Use Planning Act (LUPA),whereafter the MPT was established at theend of 2015. This flowed from the nationalSpatial Planning and Land Use Manage-ment Act (SPLUMA) of 2013.
In Cape Town, 21 town planners were ap-pointed to the tribunal, whose decisionswill be guided by SPLUMA principles suchas spatial justice and sustainability. It willalso have to comply with environmentallegislation.Daniels stressed the fact that the impact
of future developments on property valueswill not be the sole factor to be taken intoaccountwithdecisionmaking. “Several fac-tors such as social and economic impact,impact on heritage, capital investment andtraffic impacts are to be taken into accountaswell as hownegative impacts can bemiti-gated. It is hard to sayhowmuchweightwillbe given to property values alone. Each casewill be determined on its own merit,” hesaid. “All of these criteria are open to inter-pretation and require exercise of judge-ment. In deciding on amatter, theMPTmayimpose reasonable conditions to ensurethere are positive outcomes.”Council also adopted a set of rules of pro-
cedure for meetings of the MPT, which in-cludes guidelines for oral hearings.
ObjectionsResidents objecting against new develop-
ments can apply to address theMPT at suchoral hearings. Tribunal meetings will takeplace once a month in each region of theCity,whereward councillors and the publiccan attend and participate in oral hearings.“It is disappointing though that very few
ward councillors or members of the publichave upuntil nowattended suchmeetings,”he said. “Ward councillors can use this op-portunity to bring justified concerns oftheir constituents to the fore.”Ward councillorMarian Nieuwoudt, who
attended the MPTmeetings, told TygerBur-ger residents of Cape Townwill have to edu-cate themselves with the functions and pro-cedures of the MPT in order to have theirvoices heard in future developments intheir areas.“If not, they will be excluded from deci-
sions thatmayaffect their immediate area,”she said. “As ward councillor I can advisethem on planning issues but I can’t formu-late their arguments for them.”In the Northwest the MPT panel meets in
theGoodwoodCouncil Chamber on the firstTuesday of eachmonth and considers appli-cations from theBlaauwberg andTable Bayplanning districts.The Northeast panel meets in the Bell-
ville Council Chamber on the thirdTuesdayof eachmonth to consider applications fromthe Tygerberg and northern planning dis-tricts.“In the City of Cape Town, the Executive
Mayor is the appeal authority and the May-orhas setupapanel to adviseheronappealsagainst decision taken by the authorised of-ficial(s) or the MPT,” says Daniels.He concluded by saying the introduction
ofMPTs is an important step in the transfor-mation of local government in SouthAfrica.

Google South Africa has partneredwith I-CAN Centre in Elsies River toroll out a project called Google Com-
puter Science First.This international project has been pilot-
ed around the world and many young peo-ple have become digitally motivated.
Llewellyn Scholtz, manager of the centre,says the goals of the project include incul-cating computational thinking and a posi-tive attitude towards Computer Science inlearners from Grade 6 to 7.
“The project entails block based coding,building a digital story, developing a dia-gram and prototypes, remixing a storytel-ling project and creating your own animat-ed characters through storytelling,” hesays.
On Thursday 19 May, the I-CAN Centrehad a graduation to celebrate the success ofthis new venture. It was the first time in theWestern Cape that the Google ComputerScience First project was successfully con-
ducted and various schools benefitted.Scholtz explains that the I-CAN Centre
identified three schools in the Elsies Rivercommunity to run the Google project – Bal-venie Primary, JS Kloppers Primary andNorwood Central Primary – which werepart of the project hosted by the centre.
“The leaners came to the centre to partici-pate in the Google project. The 10-week pro-gramme was conducted online through aGoogle portal and a facilitator. Teachersfrom the selected schools transported stu-dents after school to attend classes,” hesays.
This unique initiative between the I-CANCentre and Google SA has impacted the nextgeneration of digital practitioners.
Scholtz says the methodology implement-ed has proven to induce active participa-tion, collaboration, interaction, and knowl-edge sharing among students. “As digitalskills have become the cornerstone for jobcreation in communities, every citizen is re-quired to be digitally literate to interact inthe future of economic development,” hesays.

School’s grandplan to expandASTRID FEBRUARIE
@febastrid
Cravenby Combined School has beennominated by the Archway Founda-tion to be one of the recipients selected
on the provincial department of educationlist for a hall.
Principal Himmath Singh says the totalcost of the hall has been estimated atR6.25m.
“This has been made possible by the gen-erous sponsorship of theCEOofGardenCit-ies, JohnMatthews, in partnershipwith theeducation department,” he says.
Singh says the school's initial contribu-tion to this nominated project will beR250 000.“We aim to raise funds for the total
amount of R550 000with half of it as our con-tribution to the project, but also to raiseenough funds to furnish the hall,” he says.
The idea is to buy – or get sponsorship for– stage curtains, a projector, sound system,chairs, tables, a white board, kitchen cup-boards, a fridge and a stove.
Singh says the driving force behind thisproject, Myroonisha Bridgeman, projectmanager and former employee of GardenCities/Pinelands Development Company,made this possible for Cravenby School.“This tenacious, hardworking woman witha love for her school community and want-
ing to make a difference in the lives of oth-ers, has many skills and talents thatbrought so much to the table for school,”says Singh.He adds that although Bridgeman does
not have a responsibility with the school asshe has no children attending, she strivesto do more and more for the school.“The school needs the support from the
community, local businesses and organisa-tions to raise the much needed funds. Weask that the community and parents sup-port all our fundraisers in aid to get to ourgoal to make it possible for Garden Citiesto start building on Wednesday 1 June.
“Garden Cities will only commence withbuilding once they receive the R250 000from the school, therefore we pledge thatthe community will support the school andparents will buy a brick to make this possi-ble,” he says.Singh says the hall will give Life Orienta-
tion teachers the opportunity to educatelearners by using outsourced companies toprovide workshops on drug abuse, sexualparticipations and much more.
“The hall will be used as a source of in-come to the school as well as we hire or rentthe hall out within the community forevents or functions andwill also be used formatric exams and assemblies,” he says.V Anyone who would like to support this goal cancontact the school on 021 931 4470.
The University of the Western Cape’s(UWC) Centre for Entrepreneurship andInnovation will continue to support localbusiness after receiving a R1.2m boostfrom Absa Bank.
Last year the centre joined hands withthe provincial government and Absa toequip 1000 entrepreneurs across the prov-ince with the strategic and operationalskills needed to help develop and growtheir businesses.With this added push from Absa, UWC
hopes to continue with the work they aredoing in communities.For the next three years, the Centre for
Entrepreneurship and Innovation willwork towards tackling social change anddriving economic growth by contributingtowards the improvement of enterprise, fi-nancial and life skills of the next genera-tion through funding initiatives aimed atuplifting disadvantaged young people inthe province.
Clinton Clarke, regional head of CIBKwazulu Natal andWestern Cape, says atAbsa they recognise the vital role smalland medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)play in economic growth and job creation.
Clarke says they also recognise thatSMEs need more than just funding to suc-ceed as they also have other challenges.
“They experience a high failure ratemainly due to a lack of business and finan-cial management skills,” he says.
As a result, a lot of funding advanced toSMEs under a number of their pro-grammes, such as the Absa Supplier De-velopment Programme, are linked to anon-financial support package to improvethe owners’ business and financial man-
agement skills and to provide them withnetworking opportunities.Clarke further says that small business-
es also often struggle to penetrate existingmarkets, or create new ones, especiallywhen competing againstmore establishedand bigger businesses.“As such, Absa is committed to develop-
ing sustainable SMEs by linking them in-to the supply chains of big corporates. Webelieve that access tomarkets is an SME’sbiggest challenge; after all a businesswithout customers cannot succeed,” hesays.Clarke says they endeavour to help peo-
ple achieve their ambitions in the rightway.“I believe that the centre has created an
enabling platform. There was no doubt inour decision to contribute R1.2m in fund-ing for the programme,” he says.In addition to the bank’s normal lending
criteria, Absa has committed R250m an-nually in non traditional lending aimed atthe SME sector in South Africa. This fundis available to SMEs that typically wouldnot meet traditional lending criteria buthave theability to generate future income.UWCRector and vice-chancellor Profes-
sor Tyrone Pretorius says the importanceof these initiatives cannot be overstated,as the success of SMMEs has the potentialtomake a substantial impact on economicgrowth and job creation in the country.“For South Africa to progress, it is very
important that institutions, private sec-tor, government and academia work to-gether to equip our people with the neces-sary skills, training and support to fostera culture of success and growth,” he says.

Apraxia still a poorlyunderstood disorderInternational Apraxia Awareness Day wascelebrated earlier this month and in an at-tempt to raise awareness of this condition,the Dunatos Remedial School in Bellville in-vited Dr Athena Pedro, a research psycholo-gist lecturing at the University of the West-ern Cape, to speak to learners and teacherson Friday 13 May.“Apraxia is a condition that can seriously
affect a child’s ability to communicate, so-cialise and develop milestones at typicalages. It is extremely important to becomeaware of this condition and to identify thesymptoms so that early interventions cantake place,” said Pedro.Pedro has a seven-year-old son who was
diagnosed with apraxia at the age of three.She tried to find health practitioners work-ing in the Bellville area, but informationabout this disorder and finding available re-sources were almost non-existent.This made her conduct research in the ar-
ea of apraxia and special needs childrenwith learning difficulties. She also works
with parents who have children with aprax-ia, using an individualised programme fo-cusing on acquiring age appropriate devel-opmental milestones.Pedro’s own son has been on this pro-
gramme for almost three years and has im-proved tremendously.“Apraxia or Childhood Apraxia of Speech
(CAS), as it is commonly referred to, is stilla poorly understood neurological disorder –sufferers experiencedifficultywhenmakingcertain movements, although their musclesare functionally normal. With apraxia ofspeech, they struggle to move their mouth,tongue and jaw muscles to form words. Theproblem is in the brain, which is unable toplan and tell these muscles how to move toproduce the necessary sounds.“The cause of CAS is rarely clear, and can
range fromabrainorneurological conditionor injury, to a genetic disorder, syndrome ormetabolic condition,” said Pedro.V Contact Dr Athena Pedro via email at [email protected] or [email protected]
In an attempt to fast track nation building,Father Smangaliso Mkhatshwa, nationalchairman of the Moral Regeneration
Movement (MRM), urged universities tolaunch their own chapters of themovement.Mkhatshwa was the guest speaker at the
launch of the first leg of the student affairsdepartment’s anti-discrimination campaignwhich was held at the CPUT Bellville cam-pus recently.He said discrimination negates every-
thing thenation’s constitution stands for, es-pecially equality, freedom, humanity anddignity.“In order towin the struggle against social
ills, we must first understand the social andeconomic context in which it is practised.”He added that discrimination, whether ra-
cial or social, is based on a number of falseassumptions such as unequal power rela-tions and inferiority complex.“If unchecked timeously, discrimination
and prejudice can degenerate into barba-rism,” he argued, citing examples of ethniccleansing in Africa and abroad.He said in the upcoming local government
elections students have the opportunity toelect councillors who will be their ally incombating the scourge of discrimination.Dean of students, Cora Motale, duly com-
mitted CPUT to launch itsMRMchapter andrequestedMkhatshwa to invite theuniversi-ty to the movement’s national indaba.The MRM is a networking platform that
facilitates and coordinates processes and in-itiatives aimed at combatingmoral degener-ation.It is a civil society driven initiative that
is supported by the government which paysspecial attention to the issues of develop-ment, social cohesion, and nation building.
Staff and students wrote pledges to com-mit themselves to the fight against all formsof discrimination, especially racism.Central SRC president Sibusiso Thwala
welcomed the call for anti-discriminationand said that’s why CPUT students supportthe City of Cape Town’s anti racism cam-paign.“Today is a step in the right direction. The
launch comes at a turbulent time when the#FeesMustFall campaign revealed that theeducation system needs to be decolonised,”said Thwala.He added there was an urgent need to alle-
viate student poverty as poor students arebeing exploited by affluent adults for sexualpleasure as they lure them with money andpromises of better lifestyles.

’n Kritiese tekort aan pleegouers inSuid-Afrika het die hulporganisasieSolidariteit Helpende Hand genood-
saak om ’n bewusmakingsveldtog aangaan-de die kwessie van stapel te stuur.Die hoeksteen van die veldtog bied ’n spe-
siale digitale platform omdie proses vir po-tensiële pleegouers makliker te maak.Afgevaardigdes van die organisasie se
hoofkantoor in Pretoria het Brackenfellverlede Donderdag besoek om die webbladin die Wes-Kaap bekend te stel.Riaan de Plooy, adjunk- uitvoerende hoof
vanHelpendeHand, en Isabel Faurie,maat-skaplike werker, het met plaaslike maat-skaplikehulporganisasies ontmoet om dieprobleme rondom die kwessie te bespreek.Volgens Faurie het die getal pleegouers
in die landdrasties afgeneemoordie afgelo-pe drie jaar. “Van meer as 570 000 pleegou-ers aan die einde van 2013, het hierdie getalwat toelaes ontvang, gedaal gedurende 2016tot 450 000,” sê Faurie.Omdat potensiële pleegouersworstelmet
heelwat vrae oor pleegsorg, verhinder dithulle om hulself as pleegouers beskikbaarte stel, meen sy.“Dit is een van die redes waaromHelpen-
de Hand die webblad geskep het waar hier-die vrae beantwoord kan word.”Voornemende pleegouers of persone wat
hul woning as plek van veiligheid wil be-skikbaar stel, kanophierdiewebblad regis-treer om hulself sodoende beskikbaar testel vir pleegsorg. “Hul gegewens wordvoorts aan die onderskeie geregistreerdekinderbeskermingsorganisasies versprei,wat die keuringsproses hanteer,” sê sy.In die Wes-Kaap word ’n groot tekort er-
vaar aan pleegouers en gesinnewat hulwo-nings as plek van veiligheid in ’n krisis kanaanbied. Daar is tans slegs 29 330 pleegou-ers geregistreer in dié provinsie waar mid-delmisbruik hoogty vier.“Honderde kinders is op soekna ’n liefde-

duidelik in diepte wat pleegsorg behels enbied ’n uiteensetting van die regte van diepleegouer, biologiese ouers en die pleeg-kind.“Pleegsorg behels dat ’n kind by gekeur-
de pleegouers geplaas word nadat hy of sydeur die kinderhof, ingevolge die Kinder-wet, as sorgbehoewend bevind is,” verdui-delik Faurie.Redes vir die verwydering van kinders
uit ouerlike sorg hou verband met ondermeer fisieke, seksuele of emosionele mis-handeling; fisieke of emosionele verwaar-losing; ernstige gesinskonflik en gesinsge-weld; alkohol- en dwelmmisbruik deur dieouers; en onstabiele maatskaplike funksio-nering.“Die uitdagings van pleegsorg kan egter
ook nie geringgeskat word nie en dit is dusuiters noodsaaklik dat voornemende pleeg-ouers deeglik gekeur moet word om te ver-seker dat daarholisties indie behoeftes vandie betrokke kind voorsien sal word,” ver-duidelik Faurie. Al die nodige inligting oordie proses is by www.pleegsorg.co.za be-skikbaar.

Plastic is inevitable. It’s not the enemy– we are.World renowned Belgian artist Will-
iamSweetlove reckons aworldwithout plas-tic is no longer possible.“The problem isn’t the plastic itself, but
the fact that people burn it and throw it intothe sea,” he says.He brings this conservation message
home in a whimsical yet compelling exhibi-tion of neo-pop sculptures, which opened atthe Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gar-den on Wednesday.Labelled “Water Wars”, the exhibition
tells the story of mankind’s war with water.By 2025, one in three people will live with
absolute water scarcity, according to thefood and agriculture organisation of theUnited Nations.Sweetlove’s sculptures are made from re-
cycled plastic from landfills and transformordinary animals and objects into iconic fig-ures. His unique works of art have chal-lenged people to become environmentalthinkers for close to 50 years through more
than 600 exhibitions worldwide.It is not difficult to see why.The pieces are bold and playful, but defi-
nitely make you think. More than 60 red,blackandwhitepenguinspositionedor rath-er installed in the Vlei Garden, for example,draw the attention to the impending short-age of clean drinking water.“They have water bottles tied to their
backs suggesting a survival measure, andface the mountain in an almost pleadingfashion – pleading for fresh water.”At the Old Dam, the Fisherman-hunter
sculpture speaks to our dwindling ocean re-sources. “In order for the fisherman to sur-vive, he eats less and therefore has shrunk.As there is no fish left in the ocean, he hasnow become a hunter.”The founder of theCapeTownArtAgency,
Dirk Durnez, who collaborated with Sweet-love and Sanbi (South African National Bio-diversity Institute) on the exhibition, saysthe exhibition aims to create a change ofmindset about conservation – especially inyoung people.The exhibition will continue at Kirsten-
bosch until 11 June, then journey throughSouth Africa, ending in Pretoria.

Die wel en weë van meisiesin ’n kinderhuis of plekvan veiligheid is die basis
van Susan Meiring (44) vanDelft-Suid se boek Dogters vanSahara, wat op Saterdag 28 Meiin die konferensiesaal in Bellvil-le-burgersentrum in Voortrek-kerweg bekendgestel word.Sy is oorspronklik vanKlawerin die Noord-Kaap, maar het inRetreat opgegroei.“Skryf was altyd my passie enek het eers in 2012 ernstig beginskryf toe die Sonmy die kans ge-gee het om my kortverhale opdie Oom Sonnie-blad te publi-seer.Maar alles het in graad 4 op9-jarige ouderdom by die JuniorPrimêre Skool Thomas Wild-schutt in Retreat begin toe myonderwyser my gevra het of eknog sulkemooi opstelle skryf. Syhet gesê ek moet my boek bringvir haar om te lees as ek dit een-dag gaan skryf.“Die span van rampbestuur inKaapstad het my gemotiveer omdie boek in 2012 te begin skryf ennou word dit Saterdag bekendge-stel. Dis die eerste boek wat die ligsien, maar my tweede manuskripis reeds deur Centre for the Bookgoedgekeur.“My roman sal teen die eindevan die jaar bekendgestel word asalles volgens plan verloop,” het sygesê. Dogters van Sahara handel
oor ’n groep meisies wat by ’n kin-derhuis beland en moet naarstigprobeer om mekaar as familie teaanvaar, want hul biologiese fami-lie het hulle verwerp of mishandel.“Ekwil beklemtoon dat dit nie ’nware verhaal is nie, maar dat ek ’npaar kinkels bygevoeg het. Dis ’nmallemeule van intrige, humor,verlange en selfs pyn. Ek neem dieleser saam met my in die alledaag-se lewe van vergete kinders in
soortgelyke instansies. “My an-der stokperdjie is sing. Ek dooddaaroor. Hoewel ek nie ’n goeiesanger is nie, hou ekdaarvanommense te vermaak. As tjokkerhet ek sommer die gaste van myouers gou ’n show gegee tot al-mal se vermaak,” lag sy.“Ekbeoog om fiksie in verskil-lende vorme te skryf en as ditGod se wil is, wil ek draaiboekevir televisie skryf.Wanneer jy ’nboek aanpak, moet jy sorg dat jygenoeg inligting oor jou onder-werp bekom.“Dit kan ’n tameletjie wees asjou navorsing nie goed is nie enjy later in die donker moet rond-tas. My oudste suster, GertruidaDietrich, het my boek geproef-lees en die boek is eintlik geskikvir kinders van 12 jaar,maar ou-ers kan ook iets uit die boek leer.“As kind het ek talle boekeverslind, maar my gunsteling-skrywers was Dricky Beukes enEnaMurray.Myoorledema,Ka-triena Meiring, het altyd gesê
dat jy nie moet ophou probeer nieen dat jy in jouself moet glo.“Ek deel graag haar filosofie metvandag se jongmense: kinders watin swaarkry gedompel is, verplig isom hul ouers se lewens te lei en ophul lewenspad geen lig sien nie,kom altyd sterker anderkant uit,want hulle ken swaarkry.“Jy as ouer moet ook nooit met’n talent sit en dan te bangwees omdit te ontgin nie,”sê sy.

The life and struggles of legendary musicicon Miriam Makeba will be exploredwhen The University of the Western
Cape (UWC) presentsMiriamMakeba – Ma-maAfrica!TheMusical, at the Cape Peninsu-la University of Technology’s (CPUT) Bell-ville campus this week.
The show – the first-ever theatrical projectto focus on the life and times of Makeba –will run in the lead-up to the 10th anniversa-ry of her passing, and celebrates the 30-yearpartnership and collaboration between theUniversity of Missouri St Louis and the Uni-versity of the Western Cape.Mama Africa! features an all South Afri-
can cast and orchestra made up students,professional and semi-professional commu-nity dancers and actors.
The original musical drama was re-searched and written over three years byAmerican professor and Broadway directorNiyi Coker Jr. (who also directs) with sup-port from the Carnegie Africa Diaspora Fel-lowship Program and in association withZM Makeba Trust and Siyandisa Music.
While Mama Africa! makes its debut atCPUT on Thursday and Saturday, Cokerplans to take the production to New Yorkand Saint Louis in the United Stated later inthe year.
“It is quite humbling and a privilege to beable to tell the story of this icon,” he says.
The show’s second run will be at the Bax-ter Theatre in February 2017, before the pro-duction embarks on another internationaltour.
Henriette Weber, director for the Centrefor Performing Arts at UWC and who wasinvolved in the auditioning process for theproduction, says it is a unique opportunityfor them to be part of this collaboration. The
musical is a new focus for the partnershipin developing the Fine Arts and Communi-cations programmes at UWC.
“This is our first project together to nowdevelop a more vibrant arts and theatre pro-gramme for UWC as a historically under-privileged institution where stage produc-tions were banned for much of the apartheidera.”
With regard to the musical, she says, “itis a dramatic show of sounds and senti-ments, vibrancy and fears, and defiance ofthe apartheid era from the perspective of theblack majority – and also brings 31 songsfrom Makeba’s repertoire”.V Tickets for the show, which will be staged at CPUT’sBellville Campus on Thursday 26 and Saturday 28May, cost R150 or R100 for students and pensionersfrom Computicket.

’n Verrassende oorwinning vir dieUniversiteit van Wes-Kaapland, ’neerste nederlaag hierdie seisoen
vir Tygerberg-klub en ’n onverwagte te-rugslag vir Durbanville-Bellville was ken-merke van die afgelope naweek se Superli-ga-klubrugby in die WP.
Die Universiteit van Wes-Kaapland hetdeeglik munt geslaan uit die UniversiteitvanKaapstad se vele foute, endeurboonopdie botoon te voer by die afbreekpunte, hetUWK die tuisspan met 29-14 verslaan. Ty-gerberg het ’n taai stryd gevoer teen dieonoorwonne Valsbaai, maar het uiteinde-
lik met 20-30 vir die eerste keer dié seisoensy moses teëgekom. Durbanville-Bellvillehet te kampe gehad met Schotsche Kloof/Walmer se uitstekende verdediging en dithet heelwat ongedwonge foute teweeg ge-bring wat aanleiding gegee het tot ’n ne-derlaag van 12-19.
Belhar het so byna ’n yslike verrassinggelewer in sy wedstryd teen die onoorwon-ne Hamiltons. Maar ongelukkig het heel-wat verspeelde puntekanse hul tol geëis enBelhar is naelskraap met 22-19 geklop.
Die derby-kragmeting tussen Kuilsri-vier en Brackenfell het ’n interessante ver-loop gehad, met die Kuile wat ’n goeie rus-tydvoorsprong van 20-5 opgebou het, waar-
na die Brakke in die tweede helfte dieoorhand gekry het. Daarmee het Bracken-fell met 22-20 ’n oorwinning voor die tuis-span se neus weggeraap.
Noordelikes/Northlink-kollege het teenPrimrose baie beter vertoon, maar moesnogtans met 18-24 die knie buig.
In die B-afdeling van die Superliga hetUnie-Milnerton (68-29 t Strand) en Good-wood (55-27 t Macassar) albei uitstekendeoorwinnings op hul kerfstok geplaas.
Die meeste spanne kry die komende na-week ’n blaaskans, met net die volgendepaar wedstryde (tuisspan eerste): Durbellt NNK, Tygerberg t Hamiltons, Bracken-fell t Sir Lowrians, Belhar t SK/Walmer.
UWK verras met oorwinning

RUGBY: VARSITY SHIELD AWARD
AVRIL FILLIES
To receive the award as the BacklinePlayer that Rocks of the VarsityShieldwas a bittersweetmoment be-
cause “we just lost to Wits” in the promo-tion-relegation play-off.This is what AidynnCupido (19) of Stel-
lenridge, Bellville, flyhalf of theUniversi-ty of the Western Cape (UWC), said at theend of the Varsity Shield competition for2016. He played as a centre and full-backin all the age groups of Western Provincew hile a learner at Paul Roos Gym-
nasium in Stellenbosch.“I never saw my dad, Wil-
fred, play centre for WesternProvince and Western Prov-ince League. Tome he was just
my dad and the coach of the rug-by club Helderberg and all the dif-
ferent Sevens teams in the province.But when I startedmy rugby career,that fact added extra pressure andI told myself that I would be in all
representative teams on merit and notbecause of my dad. “I asked my mom,Levona, about my dad’s playing daysand she pulled out a scrapbook of
newspaper clippings andactionpicturesthat she kept when he was playing. Onlythen I realised why everyone was putting
pressure on me to perform,” he said.His parents attended all his matches
and his dad said it was not necessary forhim to be a centre, he should play in theposition where he was comfortable andwhere he could add value to the team.That was when he switched to fly-half.“As a fly-half you are the general that
controls people around you and you givedirection to the team. As a centre you fol-low directions and carry a lot more ball.The assumption is that anyone can playfly-half because you just receive the ballfrom the scrum-half to kick for territory,but this is way off the mark,” he said.Cupido studies law at UWC and hopes
to sign a contract with one of the provin-ces. “For the next two years UWC will beplaying again in the Varsity Shield andwehave enough time to progress from theShield to take the Varsity Cup. The rea-son I say this is thatwe played against thebest university sides and we discoveredthat we were just not on par with them.With the experience that we gained thisyear we can just build on that in the nexttwo years, and then we’ll be a force to bereckoned with.“Currently I am focussing on my stud-
ies because you never know how longyour rugby career would last. When mystudies are done and dusted I would like
to open a sports agency to assist youngtalented players because not all sportagents are truthful to you. With my legalbackground I would be able to help theplayers,” said Aidynn.He is coached by former Springboks
Chester Williams and Bolla Conradie atUWC. According to him Bolla is an inspi-rational coach.“He allows us to express ourselves on
the pitch and gives us freedom withinrange, but wemust always keep the gameplan inmind. Chester is a statistician andbelieves the ball should do the job. Be-tween the two of them we as a team canachieve much more and with experiencewe can win trophies.“When I amnot playing rugby or study-
ing I read novels and watch television se-ries with the family, like NCIS, Blindspotand Gordon Ramsay. My dad and I talka lot about rugby but mymom is more in-to my academic career. I have two sib-lings, Ammin (14)who is at Paul Roos andAimee, who is at RhenishGirls High.“Mymessage to young players is that youmust have a goal and you are the only onewho can stop you from achieving thatgoal. Rugby is a confidence game andwith the support and encouragement ofyour family you are able to express your-self on the pitch,” said Aidynn.

Dis ’n herhaling van verlede jaar wanneerdie Southern Stings-netbalspan Vrydag dieNoord-Gautengse Jaguars in die halfeind-ronde van die Brutal Fruit-premierliga pak.Die wedstryd om 18:00 in Durban, wat reg-
streeks opSuperSport Select uitgesaaiword,beloof om vir opwinding te sorg.Anders as met verlede jaar se halfeind-
stryd, wat die Jaguars met 46-42 gewen het,beskik die Noord-Gautengers nie hierdiekeer oor die tuisveldvoordeel nie en is dieStings die vormspan. Die Stings was in diespanne se kragmeting in die groepfase met56-50 aan die wenkant.Die Stings het hul plek in die laaste vier
bespreekdeurverledenaweek inDurbandie
tuisspan, die KwaZulu-Natal KingdomStars, oortuigendmet 44-23 in die kwarteind-ronde te klop.Slegs by vier geleenthede in vanjaar se
reeks is minder as 23 doele in ’n wedstrydafgestaan. In die groepfase het niemandboonopminderdoele as die Stings se 312 teen’n gemiddelde van 35 perwedstryd afgestaannie.Die Stings beskik oor twee puik verdedi-
gers in die Proteas, Adéle Niemand en Ro-chelle Lawson, terwyl Juline Rossouw opverdedigende vleuel se harde werk dikwelsook ongesiens verbygaan.Annelie Lucas, afrigter van dieWes-Kape-
naars, het teen die KingdomStars vir oulaas
’n proefneming in die aanvallende doelsir-kel gedoen met Charmaine Baard, meestal’n hoofdoel, wat vir twee kwarte hulpdoelgespeel het, met Mari-Lena op hoofdoel.Baard is as speler van die wedstryd aan-
gewys. Dit was haar tweede speler van diewedstryd-eerbewys vanjaar.“Die afrigter het gevoel die verandering
sou ’n beter kombinasie teen die KingdomStars se verdedigers wees.“Ek is gemaklik op hulpdoel en kan albei
met gemak speel,” het Baard gesê. Sy hettoegegee hulle het sterker teenstand ver-wag van die KwaZulu-Natallers, wat oor ’nhele paar Proteas beskik, maar hulle hetnie aan die verwagtinge voldoen nie.
