Die baba, Ivenicia Witbooi, was vas aan die slaap op die rusbank by haar huis in Theescombestraat toe die brand in een van die agterste kamers uitgebreek het. Held Chriswill Williams, die held, was tuis en het hom soontoe gehaas nadat hy gehoor het dat ’n huis in die straat aan die brand is. “Ek het die baba se ma gevra waar haar kind is. Sy het gesê die kind is nog in die huis.” Chriswill het sonder om twee keer te dink ingehardloop. “Dit was pikswart en donker binne. ’n Mens kon letterlik niks sien nie,” vertel hy. Chriswill het ’n tweede keer pro- beer, maar moes weens die hitte en rook weer uit die huis kom. “Ek kon nie die baba in die huis sien nie. Dit was te donker,” sê hy. Hy het met sy derde probeerslag ’n T-hemp natgemaak, sy selfoon se flits aange- skakel en weer ingehol. Gesoek “Ek het gesoek en die kind op die bank sien lê. Ek het haar gegryp en weer uitge- hardloop. Eers toe ons buite kom, het sy wakker geskrik,” vertel hy.

Ek het gaan kyk en ge- dink my dogter, Allison, neem die baba. Ek het uitgehardloop en buitekant gehoor die baba is nog in die huis. Ek was baie deurme- kaar en geskok,” vertel Sylvester. Byna al die gesin se besittings is vernietig. Die huis se dak en mure is nog pikswart van die rook en gekraak weens die erge hitte. Die kamer waar die brand ontstaan het, is totaal vernietig.

Godly get-together in Sarepta this weekend
RICHARD ROBERTS@richardjohn_rj
A feeding scheme aimed at helping tofill the often empty stomachs of highschool learners in impoverished com-
munities, was launched in Kuils River re-cently.The Angel Network Feeding Scheme run
by community worker Dawn Roode, feedsabout 100 children daily. The project wasstarted earlier this year and is currentlyrunning at the Kuils River Technical Highschool in Driebergen Street in Sarepta.Dawn uses one of the classrooms and pro-
vides a variety of food, including hot crossbuns, garlic rolls, cake, fruit, sandwichesand juice to the teenagers.“Feeding schemes are a dire need at all
high schools,” Dawn said.Some of the learners assist her in the
project. Head boy at Kuils River TechnicalHigh, Byron Milton, said he enjoys beingpart of the project.“It helps build your confidence. To help
others, makes you become more independ-ent as a person. I enjoy it,” he said.Several of the teens were in high spirits
on Friday when TygerBurger visited theschool.Most of themshowedappreciation for this
labour of love done in the community.Dawn explained: “High school learners
come from primary schools where thereusually are feeding schemes. Some of themwere perhaps part of it due to financial diffi-culties at home, where theremight not havebeen food or basic toiletries.“Some high schools are located in (more)
affluent areas. There is a perception thatthere is no need for a feeding scheme, butwhat we forget is that there are learnersfrom other areas attending these schools.”Some of these areas, she said, include
Wesbank, Happy Valley, Kalkfontein andVrygrond. Dawn said the feeding scheme
was started at the high school because theyrealised a need for one.We initiated similar schemes at Sarepta
High and Silversands High until the Penin-sula School Feeding Scheme stepped in,Dawn said.“We start these feeding schemes without
a budget, but with lots of faith.“A personwill never realise what a differ-
ence and impact this spirit of ubuntu has on
these learners. With the sharing, we areshowing the learners that there are peoplewho care about them.”Dawn is also helped by community mem-
bersAngeloGallant, GavinDodgen andDel-main Gallant.“You don’t always need money to show
kindness,” she said.V Anyone wanting to assist can contact Dawn at072 697 7346.

“My whole body was alight and su-perheated.”This is how Frank Forbay, di-
visional commander for the District EastFire and Rescue Services, explained hisnear-death experience a week ago while as-sisting with fighting the blaze in the South-ern Peninsula.However, despite being engulfed by
flames and severely injuring both his handsand part of his face, Forbay is optimisticthat hewillmake a full recovery and is look-ing forward to returning back to his duties.A massive four-day long fire swept over
great parts of the Southern Peninsulawreaking havoc and causing great destruc-tion to people’s property in theMuizenberg,Tokai, Noordhoek and Constantia areas.“The chief fire officer called out everyone
to come and assist, they required all handson deck. My duty was to go around Noord-hoek and see which areas were mostly af-fected,” Forbay explained.Once the danger in Noordhoek was avert-
ed they received a call from one of his col-leagues in Hout Bay who said that the areawas in danger.“We received word of a chopper that
could not fly there. My colleague and I wentto the Chapman’s Peak tollgate to assist.Once there, a civilian stopped us and in-formed us about a lodge in the area that wasunder threat.”The fire had already crept into the build-
ing, he explained. A fire engine was alsocalled out.Forbay experienced difficulty with one of
his fire-hoses when a part of the hotel ex-ploded.“I needed tounplug thehosewhich I could
not dowithout takingmygloves off. I turnedaround and the entire room in front of me
went up in smoke. I just saw a big flame, itengulfed me. My hands were exposed andtherefore I took the brunt of the fire on myhands. Fortunately I hadmyvisor downandthat helped prevent the fire from reachingmy face,” Forbay explained.He suffered slight superficial burns onhis
face, but second degree burns to his hands.With the ball of fire in front of him he
could only retreat backwards. He ran to-wards a nearby hot tub and dove in headfirst.“I ran straight for it and just dove into it
to cool myself down.”He described the fire and injuries to his
hands as the most painful experience. “Ihavedealtwithmanyburnvictims, but I didnot realise the intense pain they experience.“I think I will have a total different form
of empathy when I come across a burn vic-
tim again. I realise it is not an easy thing,it is a painful thing,” he added.He prepared himself for a slow recovery
but said he is optimistic nonetheless.Forbay had already undergone one opera-
tion so far, physiotherapy and occupationaltherapy.“This was the first time in my career
something like this happened.“We always have close calls and working
in informal settlements one always sees gascylinders go up, but this was the first timeI burnt,” Forbay,whohas 22 years of experi-ence, explained.“Hadwebeen inside that building,mycol-
leagues and I would not have been here to-day. But I have survived it and am lookingforward to tomorrow. I just need to recovernow, get strong again and get back towork,”he said.

Sowat 2 000 km later oor 10 dae in ver-sengende hitte, waarvan die langste270 km op ’n dag, het agt fietsryers Sa-
terdag aangekom by die eindpunt van dieXtreme for Kids-fietstoer in Durbanville.Die agt fietsryers, hoofsaaklik van Johan-
nesburg enBloemfontein, het van Johannes-burg tot inKaapstad gery omSondag aan diejaarlikse Kaapstad-fietstoer deel te neem.Die fietstoer is ’n projek van die Matla A
Bana-veldtog van Callie en Monique Stry-dom van Welgemoed om geld vir projekteteen kindermishandeling in te samel.Talle ander fietsryers,wat almal as lid van
die Xtreme for Kids-span aan die Kaapstad-fietstoer deelgeneem het, het by Klipheuwelbuite Durbanville by die agt ryers aange-sluit vir die laaste ent tot by die eindpuntop die hoek van Durbanweg en Kerkstraat.Die Durbanville-polisie het die fietsryers
ontvang met boereworsrolletjies. Versnape-ringe en energiedrankies is ook geskenk.Altesame R75 000 is reeds ingesamel,
waarmee ’n assesseringskamer vir kindersby die kinderbeskermingseenheid in Kuils-rivier opgerig gaan word, het Monique gesê.Die geld is ingesamel met die Xtreme for
Kids-fietstoer, asook die Xtreme for Kids-span van 30 lede met hul deelname aan dieKaapstad-fietstoer.Sowat R6 000 daarvan is ingesamel deur
Monique se seun, Luc, wat vanjaar sy eersteKaapstad-fietstoer gery het.Strydom het gesê die fietsryers het tydens
hul toermetmeer as 8 000 kinders van lande-like skole gepraat in samewerking metplaaslike polisiekantore.Die tema “Dis awê om iets te sê” hou ver-
band daarmee om kinders aan die praat tekry oor molestering en kindermishandelingen dat hulle nie hoef stil te bly oor goed watmet hulle gebeur nie.Llandi Beeslaar, ’n vryskut-akteur en
stemkunstenaarvanStellenbosch,wat saam
getoer het, het ’n toneelstukwatMonique ge-skryf het, op dorpe soos Randfontein, Parys,Colesberg, Graaff-Reinet, Uniondale en Buf-felsjags opgevoer om die boodskap oor tedra.Llandi het ook voor die toer die toneelstuk
– ’n eenmanvertoning waarin sy die rollevan Elsie Geselsie en Freddie vertolk – inRoodepoort en Krugersdorp en omliggendegebiede aangebied.Die toneelstuk gaan ook opgevoer word in
Kinderbeskermingsweek in Mei by tweeskole in Fisantekraal en by skole in Delft.

Kleinvlei police are investigating a case ofattemptedmurderandrobbery following theattack on several commuters on a train lastweek.The armed attackers struck in one of Met-
rorail’s train carriages on Monday 2 Marchwhile travelling between the Lynedoch andEerste River train stations.Riana Scott, Metrorail spokesperson, con-
firmed the incident. She said according tothe Cape Town Station Rapid Rail Unit, un-known assailants attempted to rob commut-ers. Shots were fired and one person wasstruck in his upper arm.“The assailants jumped off the moving
train,” she said.Thewounded victimwas taken to the Tyg-
erberg Hospital.“The matter is being investigated by the
Kleinvlei police,” Scott said.Warrant Officer Annacletta Mothoalo,
spokesperson for the Kleinvlei police, saidthe victim, a 20-year-old male, was shot inhis hand while he was trying to escape byjumping out of the train’s window.“The train was moving at the time. At the
moment he is still at Tygerberg Hospital,”Mothoalo said.Police opened a skeleton docket of at-
tempted murder and robbery.“Other commuters were also robbed of
their belongings, but we are still waiting forthem to come forward and open cases,”Mothoalo said.Metrorail regional manager, Richard
Walker, said the rail giant is extremely con-cerned about the incident.“Our protection services personnel work
closely with the police to conduct regularcrime prevention actions including searchand seize operations to confiscate dangerousweapons,” Walker said.They appeal to commuters to report all in-
cidences. Their protection services unit andthe rail response unit will reassess their col-lective deployment of resources on trainsand stations to address criminal elements aseffectively as possible.“More than R200million is spent annually
on securing the rail network, we ask thatcommuters and communities help us andthe police to identify criminals so they canbe removed fromsociety andprevented frominflicting further harm on innocent civil-ians.”

The failure of the criminal justice system toconvict drug dealers, lies at the heart of thecrime and gangsterismplaguing all commu-nities.So says JP Smith, the City’s commander-
in-chief, after an alleged drug dealer was ar-rested for the fourth time in two years thisweekend.The man, reported to be a known “high
flyer” in the area was nabbed by Cape TownMetro and Kraaifontein police, in a jointoperation in Kraaifontein on Friday.
During this raid at a house in Scottsdene,officers found tik worth more than R10 000,as well as just over R4 000 in cash.During the same operation, another sus-
pect was arrested at a known drug house inEikendal, afterhewas caught trying to flush19 bags of tik andmandrax tablets down thetoilet.“These stories are an indictment of the
criminal justice system given that our offi-cers have arrested the same person four ti-mes in two years and yet he is still continu-
ing his nefarious activities with great aban-don,” Smith said in a statement to themedia.“The failure by the criminal justice sy-
stem, under the control of national govern-ment, to achieve convictions for these casesis a critical problem.”According to Smith,the two percent conviction rate for gang-re-lated crime means no amount of additionalpolice officers will be able to correct the factthat the gangsters and drug dealers remainfree to go about their business.

Their papermap charts all the informa-tion anyone could ever need to ditchcity traffic and fuel costs, by taking the
public transport plunge.JustinCoetzee’s vision is simple: take the
lead his NGO, GoMetro, already has andmake all central routes, times and modesof transport available to Joe Public.Working to and froma central point, Bell-
ville’s transport hub, Justin and his teamof techies painstakingly charted every pos-sible route to and fro, by getting on trains,minibus taxis and buses that cart commut-ers up and down.They launched their findings in a paper
map last Wednesday – the debut of knowl-edge that beats even Google to the first dibson local transit information.“Currently there is very little digital in-
formation available documenting publictransport routes, including minibus taxis,in allmajor cities in SouthAfrica,” says theDurbanville entrepreneur.The GoMetro Mobile App is widely used
across the city by train commuters, afford-ing them reliable access to information ontrain delays.
EmailmybossRecently GoMetro also added theMyCiTi
and Golden Arrow time tables to their ser-vice repertoire.Another hit, Justin says, is GoMetro’s
Email-my-boss service,whichdoes just that– it informs employers of commuters usingthe app that their employees are frozen intime on the railway network, citing speci-fics.With the new transit map, Justin and his
team and partners take this access to infor-mation a notch up. But how? “Minibus taxiinformation has remained difficult to cap-ture and produce,” Justin says.“As a result, the transport teamatGoMet-
ro felt that South Africa’s transport is nottruly integrated until minibus taxi routesare documented and mapped as part of theformal information system of a city’s trans-port system, and that such is accessible tocommuters.”So the team employed a new mapping
technique for minibus taxi and bus routesusing smartphones. “Over the course of 100days, the team rode all buses, trains andtaxis that access the Bellville Public Trans-port Interchange in order to build a com-plete map of public transport to and fromBellville,” Justin says.
BenefitThe map is the result of their efforts.Wesley Diphoko, GoMetro head of map-
ping says: “The objective of this pilotproject was to prove to ourselves and thetransport sector that mapping of all trans-port in a consolidated fashion is possible.“We have used our mapping technology
for the benefit of the residents of Bellvilleand the surrounding areas, in our ownbackyard, as it were.”With the map, anyone can access infor-
mation on where, when and how to jumpthe public transport network.“It displays the routes of all modes of
transport (buses,minibus taxis and trains),presenting how commuters can access therest of the greater Cape Town area from theBellville Transport Hub aswell aswhat sec-ond-degree connections can be made fromBellville.”It even shows the fare cost as of February
2015. “Commuters will be able to plan andtrace their journeys from Bellville to any-where in the Cape Town area without theneed for a private car.”Justin says the map will soon be distrib-
uted to large employers, university cam-puses, transport hubs, community centresand the general public in the Bellville area.Their intent is the same as that of the
Greater Tygerberg Partnership, a GoMetropartner, to “improve the accessibility andmobility of the Bellville area, and increaseeconomic activity in the revitalisationof animportant node in Cape Town.”Their next stop? First cover all of Cape
Town, then conquer Gauteng.TheGoMetroappalso allowsusers to con-
tribute their own data through posts on thesite, to “help everyone outsmart publictransport delays”.The best part is the ease: GoMetro can be
used to access schedules and announce-ments even on the most basic of phones –no internet data plan required.

Residents in the Green Park Informal Set-tlement along the R300 – an area prone toflooding – might be experiencing a muchdrier winter season this year.
The area, aswell as neighbouring inform-al settlement Los Angeles, have been expe-riencing flooding of homes year after yeardue to the low lying area onwhich the settle-ment is built. The areas are also situated ina wetlands nature reserve, ward councillorCynthia Claasen told TygerBurger lastweek.
Claasen saiddue to ongoing floods and fol-lowing several consultations with the com-munities, a decision was taken to raisesome of the platforms in the area to whereinformal structures can be relocated.
She said most of the water that seepsthrough homes come from the R300 high-way near Delft.
Claasen said a total of 66 structures willbe moved onto three raised platforms inGreen Park before the start of winter.
The construction of the platforms are al-ready underway.
According to Claasen the project costsabout R4 million.
Apart from Green Park and Los Angelesa similar project will also be undertaken in
the Vrygrond Informal Settlement in Kalk-fontein, Kuils River.
“We started with the project about amonth ago in Green Park.”
The completion of the raised platformswill take about two months, she said.
“We hope to relocate some of the housesto the platforms this month already.”
Claasen explained that rocks are mount-ed on the side of the raised platforms in or-der to make the surface more compacted.
“There are plans to build houses in the ar-ea, but until these projects start we havetaken these steps as an interim solution,”Claasen said.
The piece of land on which the informalsettlement is built is the property of theWestern Cape provincial government.
“Wearewaiting on the provincial govern-ment’s de-proclamation of the piece of land.
“Once theyhavehanded it over to theCityof Cape Town, then talks about providinghouses can resume.”
Claasen said since she became councillorin 2011 they have been battling to buildhouses in the area.
“It is not easy. It can take up to six years.Fortunately the people in the area havebeen patient. There has not been any riotsor protests,” she added.
Construction of informal houses inGreenPark began in 1994.

Local wasp control teams are drowningin the demand to keep up as home ow-ners are swamped by the devilish little
alien wasps.The small black and yellow European and
Germanpaperwaspshaveplagued residentsin the far northern suburbs for a couple ofyears now, since it was first spotted in KuilsRiver around 2010.
They nest in the ground and under roofsand have a nasty sting, some colonies evengetting violent when disturbed.
To date 4 800 nests have been removed bythe City of Cape Town’s invasive speciesunit in areas of Kraaifontein, BrackenfellandDurbanville,while abacklog of 500 casesstill awaits.
Two dedicated teams of four memberseach were instituted and specially trainedsome fivemonths ago anattempt to stem thisinvasion, but the City now reminds homeowners they themselves are primarily res-ponsible for pest control.
“TheCitywill assist depending on its avai-lable capacity ... the units are doing all it canwith available resources, to respond speedi-ly to the high volume of calls which it is re-ceived ... and residents have to be patient asthe teamsattend to the logged calls,” says theCity’s mayco member for energy, environ-mental and spatial planning, Johan van derMerwe.
Getting rid of the queen waspAdel Kleynhans from Kraaifontein belie-
ves the problem could lie therein that the te-ams spray the nests during the day, while
most of the wasps are out.“Atnight they comebackand thenext day,
the day after the City’s team sprayed ourlawns,most of thewasps are back,” she says.
Ulrike Irlich, project manager of the earlydetection, rapid response units, agrees thewasps aren’t in the nests during the day, butthat this should not pose a problem.
“The queen remains on the nest and wit-hout her the otherwaspswon’t survive,” shesaid.
She said that this year’s project was a trialrun to gauge the problem and monitor theimpact.
“We hope to getmore funds next yearso we can have at le-ast five teams wor-king on the ground,”she said.
This, according toIrlich, will inable theteams to work streetby street in problemsuburbs to eradicatethe pest.
Following an out-cry from the public,the City last yearpartnered with theSouth African Natio-nal Biodiversity In-stitute, the depart-ment of environmen-tal affairs, Stellenbosch municipality andStellenboschUniversity, to pool resources totrain adedicated teamequippedwith specialsuits and equipment, tomanage the invasivewasps. Another team was added in Februa-ry.
“In excess of R680 000 had already beenspent on controlling the invasive wasps sin-ce October 2014, when the wasp season star-ted.
Sightings reported daily“The season usually ends in May, depen-
ding on the weather, when the wasps go intohibernation for thewintermonths,”headds.
Van der Merwe says sightings are beingreported daily.
“Thewasp control teamhas been doing itsbest, working tirelessly, six days a week torespond to the high volume of calls regar-
ding invasive wasps.“Private home ow-
ners can contact a re-putable pest controlcompany should theyrequire more urgentassistance,” he saysand requests ownerswho opt for this tosend a report contai-ning their street ad-dress and the numberof nests removed to [email protected] whenthey remove the nestsprivately as this helpswith the City’s futureplanning and rese-arch.
Both alien invasive wasp species, the Eu-ropean paper wasp and the German wasp,are listed as a category 1B invasive speciesin the National Environmental Manage-ment Biodiversity Act.
“This means that scientists have agreed
the wasps have to be removed by law as theypose a threat to the local ecosystem and se-veral important industries such as decidu-ous fruit, wine and beekeeping industries,”Van der Merwe explains.
Beekeepers have reported with dismaythat German wasps have infiltrated severallocal bee hives and have killed honeybees.
Still spreading rapidlyAccording to Van der Merwe the most se-
vere infestations of the paper wasp havebeen found in Kuils River, Kraaifontein,Durbanville and Brackenfell.
“It is spreading rapidly however and nestshave been spotted a far as on the N7, Botha-sig, Athlone and Plumstead. A large popula-tion of wasps was discovered in Constantialast week,” he says.
The Germanwasp is known to bemore ag-gressive than the European paper wasp andappears to be less densely distributed in theurban areas.
“It is not aswell established as theEurope-an paper wasp and the City is hopeful thatit can be brought under control after a fewseasons with sufficient resources,” he says.
There are two ways in which the invasivespecies unit can be reached: by logging therecord on the City of Cape Town SpotterNet-work at www.capetowninvasives.org.za.This is the preferred and fastest method ofgetting a response.
Alternatively, residents can send ane-mail to [email protected] that wasps are in their suburb in thesubject line, with their address, contact de-tails and a map of their location in the bodyof the email. There is a longer waiting timefor this method.
Paper wasps still a problem

In die lig van onlangse Islamitiese terreur-aanvalle enmassamoorde en ter viering vanMenseregtedag, bied die NGKerkDurbanville opDonderdag19 Maart ’n bespreking aan oordie reg om te aanbid.
Die sprekers is Ebrahim Ra-sool, die Suid-Afrikaanse am-bassadeur in die VSA, wat salpraat vanuit ’n Islamitiese per-spektief, en prof. Robert Vosloovan die teologie-fakulteit vandie Universiteit Stellenbosch,wat sal praat vanuit ’nChristeli-ke perspektief.
Dit volg na die skokkende ge-beure op 7 Januarie in Parys toetwee Islamitiese geweldenaarsdie satiriese strokiesprent-publikasie, Char-lie Hebdo, se kantore binnegeval en twaalfmense doodgeskiet het oor die instansie sevoortdurende spot met hul geloof.
In dieselfde tyd in Nigerië het die ekstre-
mistiese groep, Boko Haram, massamoordeuitgevoer as deel van hul heilige oorlog.
“In die lig hiervan is baie vraeopnuut gevra, veral ook in die so-siale media,” het dr. Tinus vanZyl van die NGKerk Durbanvillegesê. Vrae is gevra, soos: Is daarperke aan vryheid van spraak envryheid van godsdiens? Hoemoet ’n mens dink oor die ver-houding tussen godsdienste?Hoemoet godsdienste reageer op fun-damentalistiese en ekstremistie-se strominge binne hul eie ge-loof?
Gelowiges vanuit verskillendegeloofsgemeenskappe word uit-genooi om hierdie gesprek by te
woon. Dit word van 19:00 tot 21:00 aangebiedin die gemeentesentrum van die NG KerkDurbanville op die hoek van Kerk- en Wey-ersstraat.V Kontak dr. Tinus van Zyl by 021 975 6370 (x105).

Gestremdes hierwaardevol geag

MICHELLE LINNERT@linnertmb
Mense móét gestremd wees om bydié fabriek te mag werk.
Dié vereiste van die ChrisSteytler- Industries-fabriek in Stiklandmaak van hom ’n tweede tuiste vir die185 werkers wat dag ná dag kom inklok– die vlak van hul gestremdheid geenoorweging vir bevoegdheid nie.
Almal doen wat vir hulle goed is, enwaarvoor hulle die beste aangepas is.
En dít maak dan ook dat daar ’n elle-lange waglys is van gestremdes wat bit-tergraag by dié beskermde, hoogs pro-duktiewe werksplek wil aanmeld.
Só vertel Marlise Esterhuizen, die be-stuurder by die fabriek, wat eintlik ’nnie-winsgedrewe organisasie is, tydensTygerBurger se besoek. Die organisasiebestaan reeds 32 jaar, waarvan Marlise21 jaar meegemaak het.
Sy sê die werkers word daar geleer omself probleme op te los met die bystandvan ’n voltydse arbeidsterapeut en ar-beidsterapie-studente van die omliggen-de universiteite.
“Hier probeer ons alles soos binne ’nnormale fabriek hanteer – almal het ge-wone inklokkaarte, kry tee- en ete-pou-ses, het ’n toesighouer en teikens om tehaal,” sê Marlise.
Sy sê alle take word in stappe afge-breek, sodat daar vir alle vlakke van ge-stremdhede ook ’n waardevolle taak isom te verrig.
“As ’n ouer is ’nmens beskermend oorjou kinders en indien daar ’n gestremd-heid is, soveel meer só. Hier stel ons ver-wagtinge en verantwoordelikhede aanhulle en vervul hulle ’n belangrike rol.
“Hulle wíl net werk en vra gereeld omoortyd en oor naweke te werk en somssukkel hulle om vakansietye af te ska-kel!” sê Marlise.
Die waglys vir ander wat graag hierwil werk, beloop tans 150 aansoeke. Allepersone met gestremdhede kry ’n plek-kie hier, ongeag hul gestremdheid.
Die aansoeke kom van oraloor – dieAstra-skool stuur gereeld hul leerders,wat hul laaste jaar voltooi, om hier ar-beidswys te kom raak as ’n voorberei-dingsfase tot werk, sê Marlise.
Daar word baie aansoeke van spesialeskole ontvang. Die fabriek word gereelddeur studente en leerders besoek enpraatjiesworddaar aangebiedomdie op-sies te toon as leerders daar klaarmaak.
Marlise sê hulle het 42 kliënte, waar-van sommige eenmansake is en anderkleinhandelreuse. “As hulle een kontrakhier laat doen, besef hulle wat dit vir diewerkers beteken en hoe goed die gehaltevan werk is, en só bly baie kliënte aan.”
Daar is egter net soveel werk vir solank. “Solank daar kontrakte is, is hier
werk.”Marlise sê die werkers ontvang almal
’n loon en dan ook ’n ongeskiktheidstoe-lae van die staat.
“Ons het nog nooit ’n kontrak verlooras gevolg van gehalte nie. Wanneer kli-ente ons waarde agterkom, bly hullehier,” sê sy.

tiklimaks geëindig toe Fairmont onverwagsvir net 65 lopies uitgeboender is deurBellvil-le se Tian Boonzaier (3/14), Christiaan Bur-ger (2/7) en Sean Coetzee (2/8). In ’n onoor-wonne aanvangsvennootskap van 69 lopieshet Stiaan Alberts (41) en Stefan Rossouw(18) hierna ’n tienpaaltjie-sege beklink.Saterdag in die Peter Buttner Sport-liga

Hoërskool Bellville beleefblink week met wegholsege
Die 13-jarige Ruaan Terblanche vanBrackenfell is die TygerBurger sesportster van die maand. Hy is ’n
jong krieketspeler van wie nog baie ge-hoor gaan word.Só gesels diemense oor Ruaan, wat nou
skoolgaan aan die Paul Roos Gimnasium.Ruaan se afrigters, Pierre Erasmus en
sy pa, Arnold Terblanche, beskou hierdiejongeling se prestasies met die krieket-kolf die afgelope jaar as fenomenaal – enwaarskynlik die beste deur ’n laerskool-speler die afgelope minstens agt jaar indie WP.Daarvan getuig die sewe honderdtalle
(drie op provinsiale vlak) en ’n verdere 24vyftigtalle wat wat hy in die loop van die2014-seisoen op weeksdae aangeteken hetvir die LaerskoolGeneLouwse o.13-span,asook die Skiereiland-krieketakademieinBellville tydensSaterdag-wedstryde endie WP se o.13-span gedurende die afgelo-pe skoolvakansie.Tydens die interprovinsiale toernooi
verlede maand op Worcester het Ruaanonder meer 192* teen die span van dieSuidwestelike Distrikte gemoker, wathom ’n puik gemiddelde van 199 lopies virdie toernooi besorg het.“Tot dusver was die 192* lopies my
hoogtepunt. Ek werk baie hard aan mykolfwerk en dit is lekker om lopies aante teken.“Krieket is my lewe, en soos enige an-
der krieketspeler is ditmy droomomeen-dag vir die Proteas te speel,” sê Ruaan.Vir die Skiereiland-akademie is sy bes-
te telling die onoorwonne 128 lopies wathy teen Western Province PreparatorySchool aangeteken het, terwyl hy met ’nbeste telling van 116 * vir die LaerskoolGene Louw teen die Laerskool Welge-moed kan spog.“Die mannetjie is net eenvoudig in ’n
klas van sy eie,” verklaar Erasmus.“Hy beskik oor al die houe van ’n goeie
speler. Daar is net nie ’n swak plek in symondering nie. Ruaan gaan beslis nogeendag vir die Proteas speel,” aldus Eras-mus.As sportster van die maand ontvang
Ruaan ’n paar sonbrille van Bosman,McNulty and Du Toit Optometrists.Shihan Hennie Bosman van die Welge-
moed-dojo skenk aan Ruaan ’n kontant-prys van R1 000.Dr. Costa Kapnias, wat spesialiseer in
sport en oefening, gee vir Ruaan ’n paargratis sessies byReadyRoom, ’n sportspe-sifieke konsep wat daarop fokus om metdie nuutste tegnologie die sportman ensportvrou se liggaam optimaal te laatfunksioneer.Stuur ’n e-pos aan mcnulty.geor-

With the powerful Masters V8s, Clas-sic Cars and Fine Cars all due tomake their first appearance during
the second round of the popular Power Se-ries sponsored by Wingfield Motors at Kil-larney on Saturday, local fans will get a bet-ter indicationofwhat is going to be availableto them this season.Despite that, it’s the start of the first BoldMarine GTi Challenge race that is likely tograb the greatest initial attention. The may-hem that occurred after the multiple colli-sion when the lights changed for the sameevent last month, has seldom been equaledat Killarney. So much so that racing onlyproceeded in an orderly fashion at the thirdattempt.Drivers who avoided the worst of the cha-os that day and are likely to shine again on
Saturday include Shane and Nian du Toit,Bessie Bester and the promising youngMar-co Busi. Behind them, reigning championPaul Simon claimed the class C honours ashe set about retaining his title.
Masters can ruleIn the Masters events, dominant Silverclass drivers Franco Donadio and Britishace Stephen Young have been promoted andcould cause a new problem for former SouthAfrican Superkart champion and multipleMasters titleholder Marcel Angel, in the de-fense of his gold class award.Others worth considering here includethe versatile Craig Jarvis, Charles Artonand former Supercar champion RichardSchreuder.Away from the leaders, the progress of de-velopment rookies Ashraf Fredericks anddemure lady driver Nashrene Schloss is go-
ing to bemonitoredwith interest in theMak-ita Formula Supercar class. Fredericks didwell to claim the bronze award during thefirst round while Schloss was not far behindhim.Expect a genuineGermanblitzkrieg in theMidas Clubman events where the surpris-ingly quick Volksies of Clint Rennard andJesse Huggett are facing up to Andre John-son’s Audi turbo and a panzer division ofBeemers in thehands ofGavinCerff, danger-ous Danie vanNiekerk andNieyaazModack(if he enters on time).A similar situation exists in class BwhereAlex Johnson’s AudiQuattro is surely goingto be challenged by Mansoor Parker in hisBMW 325.The Mutlu Batteries Classic Cars are alsomaking their first appearance. Here it is go-ing to be Anton Rollino in his powerful V8Chev CanAm who will have to fend of the
attentionhe is likely to receive fromRichard“Quick” Quixley (Datsun 240Z) and TrevorMomberg (V6 Ford Capri).
Fine CarsThe Fine Cars, that enjoy a family rela-tionship with the Classics, have attractedtheir usual rich variety of entries. These in-clude Clive Spolander’s Jaguar XJS, threeMGAs and aMGB and six Porsches. Switch-ing from cars to drivers, spectators will bewell advised to watch howwell the physical-ly impaired Steve Hallett controls histwitchy Ford Sapphire.Gates open at 07:00 with the first of the 18races on the program due to start after thefinal practce and qualifying sessions at09:45. Admission is R60 for adults and R20for scholars under 16. There is no charge forkiddies under 12. Tickets are available fromComputicket.

Met Bellville, Durbanville, Tygerberg-klub,dieUniversiteit vanWes-Kaapland,Kuilsri-vier en Noordelikes-Goodwood almal aandie wenkant in die jongste reeks tweedaag-se krieketwedstryde in die WP, kan die Ty-gerbergers, wat oorloop van selfvertroue,die seisoen op ’n hoë noot afsluitmet die ko-mende laaste reeks wedstryde.Durbanville (81/2) is ná sy agtpaaltjie-se-ge oor Rondebosch (153) steeds bo-aan diepunteleer in die Premierliga.GF Linde (5/16) en Nathan Swartz (4/53)
was die manne wat die besoekende kolwersso vasgevat het.Bellville (168) het ewe maklik met 153 lo-pies teen Victoria gewen toe Roby Kapp(7/23) gemaai het onder die besoekende kol-wers en Victoria vir net 84 lopies uitgehaalis. Edgemead (223) het ook so byna die pypgerook in sy onbesliste wedstryd teen Uni-ted (169/8), wat 180 lopies vir ’n oorwinningmoes aanteken. Nadat Brindley Gilbert (48)en Garth Madden (44) Tygerberg-klub na216 indie tweedebeurt teenOttomangevoerhet, het die veteraan-naatbouler LuwaazSeptember (5/55, vir ’n wedstrydontleding
van 11/130) die afrondingswerik gedoen oppad na ’n sege met 74 lopies oor Ottoman(135). Milnerton (101) het ietwat onverwagsmet ’n skrale drie lopies vasgeval teenStrandfontein (105), ondanks knap bydraesdeur Craig Copeland (5/44), ZarrenHarden-berg (4/27) en Robin van Harte (56*).Noordelikes-Goodwood het ná ’n eerste-beurt-agterstand van 37 lopies mooi terug-geveg teen Groenpunt (90), danksy veralskitterende boulwerk deur Robert Joseph(9/38). Die Goodwood-span (128/7) het metdrie paaltjies gewen met Werner Moolman(41) ’n staatmaker.
