New ECDs bring smilesCHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

Hundreds of children are set for a solidfoundation and bright future after three

Early Childhood Development (ECD) cen-tres opened in Philippi on Wednesday 8June.

Valued at R12m, the investment injectionis definitely needed for these ECDs.

Celebrated with much fanfare on the dayby investors, sponsors and beneficiaries setthe tone

for learning in vibrant environments.The three centres – Khululeka Educare,

Zamukhanyo Educare and Noncedo Educa-

re – have undergone a comprehensive up-grade from the Rotary Club of Claremont, inpartnership with the Lewis Group.

Rotary Club of Claremont president, TomBergmann-Harris, says the handover was“more than just a celebration of some newbuildings”.

“This is about creating a positive environ-ment which ensures children receive thebest possible educational stimulation froman early age, giving them a real hope for ex-celling in the future.

“By equipping teachers with the skillsthey need we can ensure these educare cen-tres are sustainable in the long term,” Berg-mann-Harris says.

The Rotary Club of Claremont’s InjongoEducare Project has worked with 47 EducareCentres in Philippi since 2012 with a totalspend of R12m to date.

Holistic interventions include extensiveteacher training, physical upgrades to exist-ing facilities and daily mentoring assistancefor educare centres.

“Formore than four years, we have focusedon making a lasting impact in the next gen-eration through our partnership with In-jongo. Foundation phase education lays thegrounding for children’s cognitive and so-cio-emotional development. These ECD’sprepare them for school and tertiary educa-tion. The results of this project alreadyspeak volumes and it is encouraging to re-ceive so much support from the communi-ty,” Jansen said.Simphiwe Smile, 36-year-old father of

Kamva, who attends the Grade R class forfive year olds atKhululekaEducarewas fullof smiles at the opening event.“My daughter knows how to count, she

can write her own name and she is confi-dent to stand in front of her class and tellstories. Her mind is really working and sheis so clever. I’m really proud to see howmuch she has developed at Khululeka Edu-care,” he said.

The father, who takes an active role in hisdaughter’s life says he listens to her talkhappily about what she has learnt at schoolas he takes her to school every morning.Principal at Khululeka Educare Nombu-

lelo Majezi said “all of the local primaryschools want Khululeka Children to enrolin Grade 1.”“Even schools outside of Philippi, they

say that children fromKhululeka are amaz-ing. You can just call the principals to askand they can tell you about our children,”Majezi said.Majezi explained that while many people

have opened day care centres to look aftertoddlers while their parents work, not all ofthese places offer the same developmentalopportunities. “Whatever activities we dowith the children, whether it’s reading sto-ries, singing songs, games or craft activi-ties, we follow the standards and norms andkeep to the Grade R syllabus.”

Catch all the local newsANDRÉ BAKKES

@andrebakkes

What if People’s Post wasn’t anewspaper, but a broadcastingagency?What if you weren’t bound to

listen to hyper-local news im-pactingon the suburbyou live in,but rather the southern suburbsas a whole?Would this contradict what

People’s Post stands for?Followers of the newspaper on

Facebook would have noticed anew feature – a weekly wrap-upvideo – posted every Tuesday. Inthis short video some of the arti-cles that appear in the newspa-per are highlighted, giving youthe biggestweekly news from thesouthern suburbs in bite-sized chunks.Some broadcasters bring you global news,some focus on a particular city, but no-onetargets a relatively small area such as thesouthern suburbs.This means, of course, that the newspaper

continues to set the bar of hyper-local con-tent across all mediums.The same concept has been embraced by

TygerBurger, People’s Post’s sister publica-tion in the northern suburbs.One of TygerBurger’s journalists, Bren-

den Ruiter, asked himself how one couldspread the news in a digital world, andmakeit as easy as possible for Facebook users tostay up to date.“The answer was simple. Why not a week-

ly news bulletin?We started a fewweeks agoand the video’s popularity is for all to see.It’s still a work in progress, of course, withfiner details still being ironed out.”A couple of minutes a week to stay up to

date with news headlines?The viewer’s convenience is clearly the

watch word.

Another imminent adoption will be therolling text at the bottom, which will meanone canwatch thevideowithno sound if nec-essary.In essence it is a news broadcast with a

very brief description of the chosen articles.If one snippet piques your interest then youcan read more about it on the newspaper’sfree website under the News24 domain.People’s Post journalist and bulletin pre-

senter Samantha Lee says the additionalchallenge has been an exciting venture thusfar.“It is no secret that news and the media

aremoving into a digital space. This venturehelps us satisfy the news needs of those onthe move and assists our journalists in tell-ing the inspiring stories of others that maynot have made it into the readers’ relevanteditions. The response thus far is an indica-tion that this truly is a step in the right direc-tion for our publications.”Find People’s Post on Facebook and look

out for “ThisWeek in ...” on a Tuesday after-noon at 17:00.

Samantha Lee presents “This Week in ...”, which can befound weekly on People’s Post’s Facebook page.

The Viking Motorcycle Club, in con-junction with Straw Dogs MCC and theWestern Cape EMS, held their third

annual blood drive at Turfhall Stadium onSaturday.

An estimated 600 people attended theevent to donate blood to bolster the WesternProvince Blood Services’ reserves.

Ricardo Bowers, chairperson of VikingsMotorcycle Club, says that the day was a re-sounding success, despite not meeting theinitial target set out before the event.

“The event was a great success. We didnot meet our target of 200 pints; however,we reached 149 pints. Last year we reached150 pints,” he says.

He says that compared to last year, thiswas still a remarkable achievement consid-ering that the Muslim community are in theholy month of Ramadan, which meant thatthey were unable to donate blood.

Bowers also reasons that the flu currentlybeing experienced by many in the WesternCape also caused the turnout to be slightlylower than expected.

“Considering the circumstances, wemade 149 pints, which is quite an achieve-ment. The event was successful,” adds Bow-ers.

Meanwhile, Ralph Biggs, president ofStraw Dogs MCC echoed Bowers’ senti-ments.

“From my side, I think we had a very goodday with all our sponsors we had, the band,the DJs and all the stalls.

“I do not think that it would have beenpossible without them. The purpose of theday is to have the drive done for a very goodcause. One pint of blood can save up to threepeople’s live and that is why we are doingit.”

Courtney Abrahams from the WesternCape’s EMS approached the respectiveclubs three years ago and conducted theirfirst drive in Youngsfield in 2014.

The other previous bikers blood drivewas held at Wingfield in Goodwood lastyear.

Biggs urged more people to become in-volved in an effort to save more lives.

“Whoever can, if it is a blood run, we mustall try and support it in good faith, becauseit is for a good cause. We do a lot of workand put a lot of effort into it.

“Two months before the event, we havehad meetings every Thursday night tomake this event a success and we just wantto thank all the car clubs who came to putup a display as well as the guys with the nic-est bikes who put up displays, we would justlike to thank all of them.”

With hundreds of supporters on the day, the Winter Blood Run was a mighty success. A totalof 149 pints of blood was donated on the day. Each pint has the potential to save threelives. PHOTOS: CHEVON BOOYSEN

Manenberg police have issued a warning tothe community it serves to be wary whenwalking around in an effort to step up thefight against crime.

According to Captain Ian Bennett, spokes-person for Manenberg police, he urges resi-dents to be more aware of their surroundingsand be vigilant to potential crime and thewould-be perpetrators.

“The perpetrators are often people that youknow or have frequented that area. Duringour crime analysis it is found that robberiesand theft have become a concern for Manen-berg (police). The robberies happened duringpeak times and after hours when communitymembers were a lot more vulnerable,” statesBennett.

Bennett says police have identified the fol-lowing areas to focus their efforts: Klipfon-tein Road, Duinefontein Road close to theNyanga junction, Jakes Gerwel Dive oppo-site the Vangate Mall area, Turfhall Road, thefoot bridge on the N2 coming into Heideveldarea, even at the N2 crossing at Jakes GerwelDrive.

“These are also the main areas of accessand on the transport route. Many people fre-quent these areas and have no other choicebut to use this area. Manenberg police havedeployed more members in these areas to in-crease visibility but this just displaces theperpetrators and they seem to move to otherparts of the area. We would like the commu-nity to be more aware of their surroundingswhen using public transport and also whenwalking in public spaces,” adds Bennett.

He implores the public not display valua-ble items such as jewellery and urged thoseto refrain from using their cell phones if pos-sible.

“These items should either be left at homeor concealed so that perpetrators are not ableto see it on the individual. Perpetrators lookfor these items and can strike at any timewhile the victim walks to take the publictransport.”

He also advised learners on their way toschool should be encouraged to walk ingroups and exercise the same level of cautionas if they were walking alone, with the samelevel of awareness of the surroundings theyfind themselves in until they reach an areawhere it is safe enough to use their cellphones.

Bennett confirms the theft of municipalrefuse bins is becoming more frequent andthey are being used as accessories to crimesbeing committed elsewhere.

“Residents should put out their bins beforeand bring it in immediately after the wastehas been collected. If you are unable to takethe wheelie bin back onto your property, askthe neighbour to push it into a safe area.

“Bins are being stolen and reported, it isnever recovered and this has an impact onthe escalation of crime.”

Bennett adds that the police would like toencourage the community to be more activein crime prevention and would like them toparticipate in crime prevention initiatives.

“If there are any crime prevention ideas orhot spots or concerns that the communitymembers would like to share with Manen-berg police they could email their ideas [email protected]

Bikers bleed fora good causeEARL HAUPT

The Viking Motorcycle Club, in con-junction with Straw Dogs MCC and theWestern Cape EMS, held their third

annual blood drive at Turfhall Stadium onSaturday.

An estimated 600 people attended theevent to donate blood to bolster the WesternProvince Blood Services’ reserves.

Ricardo Bowers, chairperson of VikingsMotorcycle Club, says that the day was a re-sounding success, despite not meeting theinitial target set out before the event.

“The event was a great success. We didnot meet our target of 200 pints; however,we reached 149 pints. Last year we reached150 pints,” he says.

He says that compared to last year, thiswas still a remarkable achievement consid-ering that the Muslim community are in theholy month of Ramadan, which meant thatthey were unable to donate blood.

Bowers also reasons that the flu currentlybeing experienced by many in the WesternCape also caused the turnout to be slightlylower than expected.

“Considering the circumstances, wemade 149 pints, which is quite an achieve-ment. The event was successful,” adds Bow-ers.

Meanwhile, Ralph Biggs, president ofStraw Dogs MCC echoed Bowers’ senti-ments.

“From my side, I think we had a very goodday with all our sponsors we had, the band,the DJs and all the stalls.

“I do not think that it would have beenpossible without them. The purpose of theday is to have the drive done for a very goodcause. One pint of blood can save up to threepeople’s live and that is why we are doingit.”

Courtney Abrahams from the WesternCape’s EMS approached the respectiveclubs three years ago and conducted theirfirst drive in Youngsfield in 2014.

The other previous bikers blood drivewas held at Wingfield in Goodwood lastyear.

Biggs urged more people to become in-volved in an effort to save more lives.

“Whoever can, if it is a blood run, we mustall try and support it in good faith, becauseit is for a good cause. We do a lot of workand put a lot of effort into it.

“Two months before the event, we havehad meetings every Thursday night tomake this event a success and we just wantto thank all the car clubs who came to putup a display as well as the guys with the nic-est bikes who put up displays, we would justlike to thank all of them.”

With hundreds of supporters on the day, the Winter Blood Run was a mighty success. A totalof 149 pints of blood was donated on the day. Each pint has the potential to save threelives. PHOTOS: CHEVON BOOYSEN

Manenberg police have issued a warning tothe community it serves to be wary whenwalking around in an effort to step up thefight against crime.

According to Captain Ian Bennett, spokes-person for Manenberg police, he urges resi-dents to be more aware of their surroundingsand be vigilant to potential crime and thewould-be perpetrators.

“The perpetrators are often people that youknow or have frequented that area. Duringour crime analysis it is found that robberiesand theft have become a concern for Manen-berg (police). The robberies happened duringpeak times and after hours when communitymembers were a lot more vulnerable,” statesBennett.

Bennett says police have identified the fol-lowing areas to focus their efforts: Klipfon-tein Road, Duinefontein Road close to theNyanga junction, Jakes Gerwel Dive oppo-site the Vangate Mall area, Turfhall Road, thefoot bridge on the N2 coming into Heideveldarea, even at the N2 crossing at Jakes GerwelDrive.

“These are also the main areas of accessand on the transport route. Many people fre-quent these areas and have no other choicebut to use this area. Manenberg police havedeployed more members in these areas to in-crease visibility but this just displaces theperpetrators and they seem to move to otherparts of the area. We would like the commu-nity to be more aware of their surroundingswhen using public transport and also whenwalking in public spaces,” adds Bennett.

He implores the public not display valua-ble items such as jewellery and urged thoseto refrain from using their cell phones if pos-sible.

“These items should either be left at homeor concealed so that perpetrators are not ableto see it on the individual. Perpetrators lookfor these items and can strike at any timewhile the victim walks to take the publictransport.”

He also advised learners on their way toschool should be encouraged to walk ingroups and exercise the same level of cautionas if they were walking alone, with the samelevel of awareness of the surroundings theyfind themselves in until they reach an areawhere it is safe enough to use their cellphones.

Bennett confirms the theft of municipalrefuse bins is becoming more frequent andthey are being used as accessories to crimesbeing committed elsewhere.

“Residents should put out their bins beforeand bring it in immediately after the wastehas been collected. If you are unable to takethe wheelie bin back onto your property, askthe neighbour to push it into a safe area.

“Bins are being stolen and reported, it isnever recovered and this has an impact onthe escalation of crime.”

Bennett adds that the police would like toencourage the community to be more activein crime prevention and would like them toparticipate in crime prevention initiatives.

“If there are any crime prevention ideas orhot spots or concerns that the communitymembers would like to share with Manen-berg police they could email their ideas [email protected]

Emile YX? goes internationalLOUISA STEYL

@LouSteyl

He’s a community activist, an ed-ucator, a father, a husband and

a hip-hop artist.Emile YX? – or Emile Jansen as

his family know him – is nostranger to Cape Town and SouthAfrican hip-hop fans. In fact, theBlack Noise founding member hasbeen instrumental in growing thelocal hip-hop scene.But his many achievements will

be introduced to an internationalaudience later this year whenBreak like You, a documentaryabout his work, will be screened atthe inaugural New York Hip-HopFilm Festival.“The documentary producers in-

terviewed various people andheard about my story from somepeople and they just approachedme about telling my story,” Emileexplains of the short film shot byMehreen Afzal and Melissa House,as part of the Barefoot Workshops,last year.“It’s a very honest story about

being a community activist, father,husband, artist, educator througharts and culture and how healingcan happen through giving of one-self.”The film comes off the back of a

busyperiod forEmilewho recentlywon the SABC 3 breakfast showEs-presso’s Mandela Monday Awardalong with a LeadSA Hero Awardin April.He’s also just sent five dancers to

compete at Battle VNR in Franceand has just wrapped up PositivePoster Week, a campaign run

through his Heal the Hood project.Emile started Heal the Hood as

a community organisation in 1998with the aim to “change minds tochange action”. The non-profit or-ganisation has since grown fromstrength to strength, raising mon-ey to help send 194 performers tointernational competitions overthe years.The organisation’s focus this

year is on eight schools and twocommunity centres on the CapeFlats where they inspire youngpeople to become “artistically ac-tive” through songs, music videosand books.“We are also focussing our ener-

gies on changing the negative dia-logue that dominates the CapeFlats youth to a positive one of out-comes and action.”Emile’s own artistic journey

started with breakdancing, beforehewent on to try his hand at graffi-ti, beatboxing and rapping – all ele-ments of hip-hop culture. Dancingis what first attracted him to theculture and he says it challengedhis fear of people seeing him “inthe middle of a circle”.“Without me knowing it, it was

about me finding me and showingmyself to the world.”As a man of few words, when

Emile found himself writing, hesays he knew he had to do some-thing about it. This is a philosophythat he’s carried throughouthis ca-reer and why he now calls himselfa “reactionary activist”.“We did not have a space, so we

took action and danced on thestreets,” he says. “We took actionto teach each other, ourselves, and

that’s activism.”When Emile and his crew found

themselves with no events to per-form at, they created their own, be-fore creating competitions andthen touring; first nationally andthen internationally. With no“how-to” guide, they printed theirown CDs, DVDs and books and cre-ated their own production to beable tomakea living from their art.It was the beginning of what

would become a vibrant South Af-rican hip-hop culture. “We areproud to say that we played a rolein making that dream a reality formany people today. My main rea-son was always about my creativedesire tomakenew things. Toman-ifest the word and show youth that

with determination and persever-ance anything is possible.”Emile’s contributions tohis com-

munity have been highlightedmost recently throughhisMandelaMonday Hero award and LeadSAaward, but last year he was alsochosen as the face of the MoshitoMusic Conference where he wasawarded for his contribution tohip-hop and the year before sawhim winning an Honorary Awardat the South African Hip-HopAwards.His work is about more than

awards through. “As a citizen, it ismy duty to take action on civic is-sues. It is the very foundation ofour responsibility we have to-wards each other and then collec-

tively as a nation to manifest realdemocracy with informed deci-sions.”For Emile, this also means lead-

ing by example and “not just talk-ing about change, but takingactionto make it real.”The action-taker will soon be

heading to America to see his sonand wife who are with her familyin Ohio, before heading to the NewYork Hip-Hop Film Festival. He’llbe back in Cape Town in mid-Au-gust to host the Cape Flats FilmFestival before going into studio towork on his ninth solo album. Alsoon his agenda for the rest of theyear are his first DVD compilationmade up of music videos and abook about Black Noise and hip-hop inCapeTown.He’s also consid-ering a doctorate in Education andHip-Hop Pedagogy at an interna-tional university.Emile will participate in a Q&A

session after the screening ofBreak likeYouandwill beusing theopportunity to invite internationalfilm makers to participate in Healthe Hood projects and the CapeFlats Hip-Hop Film Festival sched-uled for December.He’s also assistingBreak likeYou

producers Mehreen Afzal and Mel-issa House with fundraising fortheir NewYork trip and to turn thedocumentary into a full length fea-ture.Fans can catch Emile in action

when he performs on SABC 3’sJam Sandwich on Thursday 14 Ju-ly.V Anybody interested in helping withEmile’s fundraising efforts can contact himat [email protected] or 082 395 8125.

Emile YX? will be heading to America soon to introduce a film, about hiswork, at the inaugural New York Hip-Hop Film Festival.

Young talents in dance and song will be atthe Artscape Arena until Saturday to paytribute to Christopher Kindo, South Afri-can award-winning dancer and choreogra-pher.Kindo, one of the co-founders of the Jaz-

zart Dance Academy in Cape Town, passedaway inApril last year and itwas a sad lossto the South African creative sector.Natalia da Rocha, from the Applauz Arts

Initiative, is one of the organisers of FullCircle – a Tribute to Christopher Kindo inrecognition of his vast contribution to thecultural reservoir of Cape Town’s creativesector.“As Applauz Arts Initiative we feel hon-

oured to be part of this event because Kin-do worked with us on two of our produc-tions,” she says.“Along with his family and his friends

we are coming together to celebrate the lifeof this creative spirit, friend, son, uncle,brother, youth developer, mentor, chore-ographer and dancer.”Natalia also explains this is the inaugu-

ral production of The Legacy Project atArtscape to honour some of the legends inthe arts.“It is so apt for this to happen during the

month of June when the entire country isfocussing on our youth,” continues Nata-lia.“Christopher developed young dancers

and he was their mentor. He went beyondbeing just a ’dance teacher’. He fed some

of his students when they arrived hungryat the studio. He knew that you cannotteach a hungry child.”After graduating in the ’70s from UCT

Ballet School Kindo had his eyes set on be-ing the first person of colour to dance inthen CAPAB dance company. But this nev-er happened and he went and joined theBoston Ballet Company for a year.Young performers who have crossed

paths with him during his career will befeatured on the tribute.“Aviwe November is one such dancer

who will pay tribute to Kindo with a piecehe choreographed,” adds Natalia.“The doyen of contemporary dance in

South Africa, Adele Blank, as well as herdaughter, Natalie Fisher, are also part ofthis tribute.

“It will be an audio-visual variety showwith his favorite songs being sung in theshow by one of our Applauz candidates, 17-year-old Matric student Lauren Hen-dricks.“One of his favourite singers was PP Ar-

nold (Kafunta) and she will be singing Ar-nold’s version of the classic ‘Eleanor Rig-by’.”The proceeds of this event will go into a

Christopher Kindo Trust Fund to supporta young male dancer from a marginalisedcommunity that wishes to study dance atany of the accredited institutions.Performances start tonight (Tuesday)

from 19:00 with a 15:00 matinée on Thurs-day 16 June and on Saturday 18 June.V Book through Computicket or Dial-a-seat on021 421 7695.

New centre forfurry friendsCHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

The Cape of Good Hope SPCA (CoGHSPCA) launched their newly construct-

ed state-of-the-art facility on Thursday lastweek.Patrons, animal guardians and sponsors

were given a preview of the new facility, theconcept of which was introduced duringlast year.Excited furry friends greeted visitors and

animal lovers on Thursday as they wel-comed them to their comfortable newcondi-tions.The premises in Grassy Park now hosts

the largest adoption kennel of its kind inSouth Africa – with bells and whistles.Longstandinganimal guardianGayleSly-

per sharedherpersonal experiencewith theSPCA.“I am very excited about this shelter. I en-

courage people to become involved by do-nating to our animal shelters. Our four-leg-ged friends need the help,” she says.CoGH SPCA CEO Allan Perrins says:

“With ever more animals requiring a safehaven from abuse and abandonment, theCoGH SPCA forged ahead with the con-structionmid-2015. Thedecision to invest ina redevelopment was seen as a vital movein securing the future sustainability of theorganisation as a whole.”He says the older buildings were over 20

years old and as such various structuralproblems were beginning to negatively af-fect the “overall efficacy of the facility andin order to best serve the animals an over-haul was necessary”.Build-A-WayBuildersworked in conjunc-

tion with Rennie Scurr Adendorff Archi-

tects to bring the vision of a 21st centurykennel into reality.Adendorff says the facility integrates

modern, state-of-the-art animal care habi-tats and support systems with a design thatmirrors the desired operational flow of peo-ple and animals into and out of the facility.The facility hosts quarantine, pre-adop-

tion and adoption pods which can accom-modate 300 individual animals.Before, due to space constraints, the

CoGH SPCA hosted up to three small dogsin one kennel.“We are able to reduce the risk of kennel

stress by giving each animal in our care aspace to call their own while still encourag-ing a degree of controlled socialisation. Thedogs and cats will now also be enjoying un-derfloor heating and improved biosecuritywhich will help us control the spread ofdeadly diseases,” says Belinda Abraham, astaffer at the SPCA.The furry friends also have dog beds

which are raised above floor level so thatthey do not sleep on the cold cement.Possible adoption families will also be

given the opportunity to go through anadoption process where they are taken pri-vately into an adoption room, where an as-sessment is done, to ensure that familiesadopt a pet that is best suited for theirhome.Possible fur parents also have the option

to familiarise themselves with a candidatepet in a viewing room instead of visiting thekennels, which could become overwhelm-ing.Each dog is also provided with a comfort-

able and hygienic dog beds thanks to Coola-roo Pet Beds.V To enquire about adoptions please call Kim on021 700 4152 or email [email protected]

Cliff Smit (a voluntary dog walker and carer) and Cape of Good Hope SPCA CEO Alan Perrinsofficially cut the ribbon, opening the doors to the new animal care facility.

Animal lovers and patrons of the Cape of Good Hope SPCA enjoyed spending some time withthe furry animals.

The Sherwood Park Neighbourhood Watch(SPNHW) has had site meeting with the Cityof Cape Town to discuss various grievances.

Siyabulela Mamkeli, ward 45 councillor,attended the visit along with the City’s prop-erty management and solid waste depart-ment.People’s Post reported last month (“Resi-

dents ‘tired of vagrants’”, 10 May) thatSPNHW were concerned about the vacant

plots of land in the area being occupied byvagrants, which was among the grievancesraised during the visit.

According to Shahied Francis, SPNHWdeputy chairperson, crime has continued tospike, particularly relating to theft of carsparts, such as wiper blades being stolen offstationary cars. He says burglary is also onthe rise, and voices concern over allegeddealing of drugs, trafficking and prostitu-tion. “Ironically, none of these perpetratorslive in the Sherwood Park area. They are alllabelled as outsiders of Sherwood Park,”

states Francis.Residents’ municipal refuse bins are also

being targeted by would-be thieves and theorganisation feels powerless to preventthese crimes from happening, he says.

“Our request was for solid waste manage-ment to step in with law enforcement, in-cluding the sergeant of Metro Police.”

There are many other issues being report-ed by members, such as the main drain sup-ply leakage in the area and stagnant water,which collects and causes a foul stench. Non-functional fire hydrants were also listed, as

well as concerns over electrical manage-ment which sees poor lighting and non-func-tional light posts. This has been raised withthe utility services department.

SPNHW made history as the first neigh-bourhood watch to have a site meeting withgovernment officials, he says.

“The feedback from the residents is thatthey have lived in the area for many yearsand for the first time in history SherwoodPark Neighbourhood Watch has shownsheer conscientiousness in their efforts tomaintain and solidify the community.”

PENNED BY A JOURNO

Make a typo andthe errorists winWorking in thenewspaper industry is anun-forgiving career choice. Any mistake youmight make, down to a typo caused by yourslow ring finger, is there for all to see.The embarrassment of having your mis-

take as front page news is one of the reasonsjournalists check facts and dates and see ev-ery story triple checked. But we are still hu-man and prone to errors.Worse still is that newsrooms around the

world are shrinking. Fewer people arewear-ing more than one hat under demandingdeadlines. Gone are the days that the jour-nalist were only responsible for getting andfiling their story, because the photographer,pageplanner, layout artist andvarious copy-editors would see to the rest.At People’s Post, our journalists, on aver-

age, work on two editions, covering dozensof suburbs. They’re responsible to fill theseeditions with both articles and photos, fromback to front, every week while attendingmeetings and events late at night and overweekends. And then there are the two tothree hour long (sometimes half a day) coun-cil meetings that take place at least once amonth.Most of these stories are gathered and

written over three or four days for a weeklydeadline. Some journalists also have extraproduction duties – page planning, subbingand layout – added to their workload ondeadline days. As anyone who works in thatkind of high-pressured industry will under-stand: it’s no easy feat.And they still do their workwith integrity

and honesty, with a smile on their faces anda kind word for any reader theymight meet.In each story, we have to guard against a

range of ethical principles, ensuring fair-ness to both parties, and objectivity. Withthe amount of misinformation we sift

through, there are much worse errors wecould make than a spelling or grammar er-ror.To prevent those nasty little spelling and

grammar gremlins, our editor and subeditorcheck anything between 120 and 160 pagesin our 10 zoned editions – in a day and a half.To fill just a quarter of a page is between 350and 500 words. You can do the maths to un-derstand the sheermagnitude of their work.If you were to look at our error rate (we’d

confidently put it at less than 1%), we’re do-ing better than the airline industry.And often after triple checking every arti-

cle, as was the case last week, an error slipsthrough and is spotted only after it has beensent to theprinter (“Librarypeddles forpow-er”, People’s Post False Bay, 7 June).And when it comes to the cost of calling

back a page to fix that error – unless it’s afactual error that will land us in hot waterwith the ombudsman or in court – we’d rath-er swallow our pride and take the flack fromour loyal errorists.We might sound superhuman, but we’re

really not. That’s why we appreciate everyreader that alerts us to these errors.But telling a journalist they aren’t quali-

fied, or shouldn’t have their jobs over a spell-ing or grammar error, is uncalled for.We’ve put our hearts into giving you the

best work we can. So when you notice we’veslipped up, be kind to us – we’re doing thebest we can to bring you the best qualitynews.V Peddle vs Pedal: “Pedal always relates to bicycles,pianos, organs, boats, looms, sewing machines, andother machines. The pedals are the foot-operatedcomponents. The word also functions as a verb mean-ing to operate pedals. Peddle is a verb meaning tosell or to travel about selling goods. It often refers tothe sale of illicit goods.” – Grammarist.com

LETTERS

Give addicts afair chanceSeeing that it’s Youth Month I havetaken it upon myself to share with youa problem that our youth faces today –the problem of drug addiction.Not only does the addiction seem to

be the main problem but these addictsfind it extremely hard to find workonce they have decided to turn theirlives around.I know exactly what I am talking

about, because for me finding workwas a huge problem because of mycriminal record.Most companies state that you

should be criminal and credit clear. Sohow are the recovering addictssupposed to then become “normal”members of society if they cannot findwork? This further irritates the issuebecause it leaves room for depressionand feelings of unworthiness.I feel that companies should em-

brace these individuals for making thechoice to turn their lives around, ittakes character and determination –something that any and every employ-er should want in an employee.So to all the employers out there,

most addicts are very skilled, perfec-tionists and extremely loyal. Do whatneeds to be done, test them regularlyfor drugs and even watch them closelybut do not cast their CV’s aside.If they can show amazing character

so can you.EMILE NAIKER

On-track action at karting champsWildcards, multiple winners and a

large dose of intrigue highlighted abrilliant Cape kart meeting.

Anyonewhohad the pleasure to attend thefourth round of the Western Cape KartingChampionship atKillarney onSaturdaywillagree that it was a great day’s racing featur-ing wildcard winners, upsets and brillianton-track action all day long, theWPMCKartClub says in a press release.It would be a trick to pick the race of the

day, but the often pedestrianMax Challenge125s certainly stood out among a day of high-lights. Championship leader Dino Stermin(Designer TrimsRKTKosmic) andDinoDel-ano Fowler (SuprocomWOrr FA) arrived atthe circuit to find a pair of ominous wild-cards entered in their class. The CRG duowere reigningWP class champion JonathanAberdein back in the country on holidayfrom his German ADAC Formula 4 cam-paign andUmpie Swart, taking a break fromPolo Cup action this weekend.It proved a head to head of extreme enter-

tainment as Swart and Aberdein stole thefirst heat from Stermin with Fowler in closeattendance, before Stermin struck back totake a stunning race 2 from Fowler and Ab-erdein. But Aberdein made no mistakes tolead the final from flag to flag from Stermin,Swart and Fowler. Stermin however didbrilliantly to win the day from Aberdein,Swart, Fowler, Nicholas Jacobs and MarcoJoos, with just two points separating the topthree.The high school Rotax JuniorMax 125s al-

so delivered an epic battle that ragedthroughout the day, but it was SebastianBoyd who came out tops aboard his BoydFreight Kosmic with two wins to one overchampionship leader Jason Coetzee (RKTKosmic) and Dario Busi, who fought hard toput his Automan Birel third in a supremelycompetitive class. Aidan Strydom (Turbo-

TechCRG)drovea clever trio of races to edgeout the injured Andrew Rackstraw (Tony),and unlucky Daniel Duminy (Kosmic), whofell victim to some hectic midfield action.The ever-spectacular 60cc primary school

CapeMaxterinosdelivered threewinners onthe day, but race 2 victor Charl Visser (Bat-tery Energy Zanardi) was the most consist-ent to take overall honours from race 1 win-ner Joseph Oelz (Zanardi), Jason MacBeath(Zanardi), Kai van Zijl (CRG) and Zanardiduo Kyle Visser and Nicholas Sage, whileTroy Dolinschek (Makita Kosmic) took therace 3 win.

Paul Malcolm (Charl Electric) continuedhis winning ways to take overall honours inthe smallest u.8 Cadet class, although he hada problem in race 1 to allow Joaquin de Oliv-eira to take the first racewin. ReeseKoorzenended up second overall in another busy aft-ernoon from Joshua Smit, Reza Levy (Jive),de Oliveira (whose day went backwards aft-er that first win) and Mishca Williams whobattled a down on power engine.It was a far more straightforward affair in

the DD2 gearbox class, where former WPchampion Jonathan Thomas (PartnersCRG) cantered to a trio of victories ahead of

a three-way three-race tussle settled in fa-vour of Tristan de Nobrega (Race Driver SACRG), who beat CRG quartet Hilton Peters,Delano Fowler, Jonathan Aberdein andChad Daniel to second. Kian van der Merwebeat Isabelle Fowler two races to one to takeClubman honours ahead of Class B winnerJody van Rensburg.The Cape’s top karters now head to iDube

this weekend for the third round of the SANational Karting Championship and thenthe National Final in Vereeniging a monthlater, before returning to commence the sec-ond half of theWP championship on 30 July.

Jonathan Aberdein (299), Dino Stermin (247) and Umpie Swart (239) shared spectacular Max Challenge Wins at the Western Cape KartingChampionship at Killarney on Saturday.

Local surfers take top spotsKAREN ELKINGTON

The BOS Cape Crown, a 3A SurfingSouth Africa Junior Surf Competition,was held in perfect conditions over the

weekend at Long Beach in Kommetjie.Spectators enjoyed an exciting display of

surfing from South Africa’s top junior sur-fers who had come from as far as Richards

Bay to compete in the Cape Town event.In the end local knowledge of the shifting

Long Beach break helped quite a number ofyoung local surfers take the Cape Crown intheir divisions. The talented Alex Townsendfrom Kommetjie won the u.12 division andwas stoked with his first PST win. Up-and-coming surfer, Summer Sutton from Kom-metjie, was in top form winning the girls

u.14 title with some impressive power turns.Manoa Robb, also from Kommetjie, won theboys u.14 division.

In an extremely tight and exciting u.16boys final, Max Elkington (the current SAChampion), took the win over fellow Kom-metjie surfer Eli Beukes. Adin Masencampfrom the Strand landed an impressive aerialin the dying minutes of the u.18 boys final

to beat a strong contender in another Kom-metjie local, Ford van Jaarsveldt.

The inaugural event was a great successthanks to support from the Kommetjie surf-ing community and the sponsors.

The organisers are hoping that this be-comes an annual event on the South AfricanJunior Surf calendar with young surfersstriving to take the Cape Crown.

Stanturf ready for tournament after 16-year absenceEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

Stanturf Football Club, formed 25 years agoin the heart of the Rocklands, previouslyknown as Turf United and Stanton FC, islooking forward to the Kenpark u.23 tourna-ment which takes place this weekend.

A total of 24 teams from across the city,including defending champions GlendeneUnited, will take to Kenpark United’s fieldsin Mitchell’s Plain to showcase their risingtalent.

According toStanturf’s u.23 coach, JeanneValentyn, his charges are excited at theprospect of rubbing shoulders with some ofthe city’s more renowned clubs, after quali-fying for this year’s tournament after a 16-year absence.

Valentyn attributes the barren period toa number of factors, which ended in theirclub losing the bulk of their youth playersover the years.

“With many ups and downs in the club aswell as the community, we still had the gameof football at heart. As a former junior player

(myself), it was then a joy to play and as timewent past our community, (others) became

invested with gangsters and the use of drugsincreased, especially within the youth. We

ended up losing players as well as a loss ofinterest in the game. Keeping the youth mo-tivated and interested in the game was hardand as an amateur club, finding attackingplayers was difficult,” he states.

He says that the only other way to lure tal-ent back to the club was to enter in well-known tournaments which may provide agateway onto a bigger platform, where aplayer may have the opportunity of plyingtheir trade professionally. “The players areexcited, preparing to showcase their talentand hopefully impress to possibly fulfil theirdreams and make it in this industry.

“We recently partnered up with a localMitchell’s Plain business that has now as-sisted us with a sponsor, so that we can alsolook the part.”

The team held a kit launch with theirsponsor on Thursday 9 June, which broughta renewed spark to the squad ahead of thetournament proper this weekend.

“Just to see the faces of our boys, excitedto receive a small gift, this could not havebeen possible if we did not engage in thisventure.”

Stanturf recently held a kit launch for their u.23 team. The team will be competing with 23other teams from across Cape Town in the Kenpark u.23 tournament this weekend.
