OCEAN VIEW
Sweeping streets clean
NICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
A
group of Ocean View women are
sweeping their streets clean of crime.
Literally.
Dubbed the sweeping ladies, women in
Aries Avenue have taken safety into their
own hands and formed a street committee to
guard against criminal elements.
PR councillor Patricia Francke saysmany
of the residents in the council houses in Ari-
es Avenue have lived there for years and
form the backbone of the community.
It used to be a safe street, but last year
crime started to escalate, she says.
Smaller incidents such as the theft of
washing from washing lines has escalated
into criminals using the street and proper-
ties as a thoroughfare.
Francke began working with all the wom-
en at home during the day some mothers
and some pensioners and they established
aWhatsAppgroup. If they see someone that
doesnt belong in the street, theyall comeout
with their brooms and a cup of coffee or hot
water, Francke explains.
They start sweeping towards that person,
as if to say we will sweep you out of the
street, she says.
The coffee or hot water also acts as a self-
defence tool, Francke explains, with the
women able to throw it to ward off any ad-
vancing threats.
Resident Donovan Fritz says although the
community still experiences crime at night,
it has all but stopped during the day when
the sweeping ladies are on guard.
The residents have now also implemented
a systemwith whistles to prevent crime and
alert other neighbours to incidents at night.
Theresa Martin, one of the sweeping la-
dies, says being part of the solution feels
good and the community is grateful to them.
Although it is difficult to measure the im-
pact the women have had on crime figures,
Ocean View Community Policing Forum
chairperson Kathy Cronje says any initia-
tive to combat crime in the community is
welcomed.
Anything that the community does to
combat crime is a good thing even if it is
sweeping the streets, she says.
Its good to see the community trying to
find inventive ways to take back their
streets.

Sweeping Ladies, are taking back their

Honouring Nelson
Mandelas legacy
ACROSS BORDERS: The St Johns United Methodist Church of Alaska visited the Ocean View Methodist
Church earlier this month. Every two years, the visitors raise funds to do projects at the church. This year they
were involved in helping at the Simons Town Methodist Church, Ubuntu and Ocean View Methodist Church.
WOMEN AT WORK: Mayor Patricia de Lille honoured 24 award-winning women, working in all-women road repair
teams, at a lunch that she hosted last week. Since 2015, the City has established four all-women road repair teams
based in Ndabeni, Fish Hoek, Heideveld and Kuils River as part of the Expanded Public Works Programme. In May this
year, it was named the Most Innovative Women Programme at the fourth annual Women in Construction awards
ceremony held in Johannesburg. You have shown that women can compete with their male counterparts in physically
demanding jobs such as repairing potholes, laying kerbs, cleaning stormwater infrastructure and building sidewalks, de
Lille says. In the coming years, we aim to expand the number of women teams so that the work environment
reflects our gender transformation agenda. PHOTO: CITY OF CAPE TOWN

MUIZENBERG
Bringing police
history to life
NICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
T
he Muizenberg Police Museum has
thrown open its doors with a new, ener-
getic team of staff hoping to make history
come alive for visitors.
At the helm is Captain Henry Jones, who
says the journey leading up to the opening
has been a challenging one.
The museum was initially opened in 1982,
says Jones, and closed its doors in 2003 due
to structural damage to the building.
In 2012, fundswere allocated to restore the
building and it opened its doors to the public
again in May this year.
There have been great challenges in ap-
pointing human resources, he says, but the
recent appointment of Suzette Farmer, who
previously ran programmes at Simons
Town Museum, has swelled the ranks.
Ive got one of the most experienced peo-
ple on the staff, he says of Farmer. She has
a lot of expertise and I know it will make a
big difference to the dailyworking of themu-
seum.
The museum is housed in the villages
original library built in 1910 Jones says,
which was later used as the police station.
The building adjacent has also been incorpo-
rated into the museum, as it was used as the
court after originally being a post office.
It is the only police museum in the West-
ern Cape and is a satellite of the mother mu-
seum in Pretoria, he says.
Displays of notorious criminal cases and
an old charge office are some of the attrac-
tions. However, the museum does brag
with some of its own, special history.
One of these is a stuffed horse named
Chester, whowas used to train officers and
carry out patrols in the days before vehi-
cles, Jones explains.
The children are fascinated by it! he
says.
There are also the remains of three uni-
dentified bodies found during the renova-
tions. These were buried on the site long
before the building was constructed, Jones
says. We have a rich history. We show the
past and the way we have moved forward.
Its good to know where we come from in
order to notmake the samemistakes in the
future, he says.
The museums future will see it moving
away from just static exhibitswith a strong
educational programme in place to target
learners.
The museum staff will educate learners
on the effects of drugs and gangs, showing
them the cells and courts they could end up
in, if they stray from the law, during mock
court cases, Jones says.
This museum is not as it used to be. It
was a dead place. Now it has come alive.
V Entry to the museum is free. The museum is open
from 08:00 to 15:30 on weekdays, and by appoint
ment only on weekends.
The Muizenberg Police Museum is open for business and the new team of staff are looking to
educate the youth. PHOTOS: NICOLE MCCAIN

SIMONS TOWN
Caracal behind
penguin killings
T
he cats out the bag as to who is killing
Simons Town penguins.
Following a spate of penguin fatalities
over the last two weeks, the City of Cape
Town and Table Mountain National Park
identified a large caracal as the perpetrator.
The City of Cape Town has since success-
fully captured and relocated the caracal
that was responsible for the recent spate
killings.
Initial evidence suggested the presence of
one or more caracals in the area and as
such, the City installed trap cameras to con-
firm this assumption. Images of the preda-
tor were finally captured on camera, con-
firming the presence of a large caracal.
Natural predation by an indigenous ani-
mal is considered part of the natural pat-
terns and processes in the ecosystem and
the prey is not favoured above the predator,
explains Mayco member for energy, envi-
ronmental and spatial planning, Johan van
der Merwe.
However, when a particular predator
starts changing normal predation behav-
iour and kills multiple individuals that is
more than what is required for feeding
there is cause for concern. More so if the
prey species is listed as endangered and the
number and frequency of the kills becomes
unsustainable in the population. The man-
agement authorities are thenplaced in adif-
ficult positionandneed to consider themost
viable and best option for the ecosystem as
a whole.
The female caracal was successfully
trapped on Friday 8 July, Van der Merwe
says. The animal was tranquilised in the
cage and examined by a local veterinarian.
Itwas found tobe ahealthyadult female and
the veterinarian confirmed that the caracal
was not lactating. The cat, which was fitted
with a tracking collar, was transported
back to her original roaming territory in
the Table Mountain National Park and re-
leased. It has been confirmed that the cat
has settled down and its movements will be
monitored.

A
Noordhoek mother has recently re-
turned from competing overseas where
she represented her country in as a silk ae-
rialist.
Gabriela Sissons was the 2nd runner-up
in the Airstars Asia-Pacific Championship
in China and 1st runner-up in the APPA
Russian Aerial Championship held in
Vladivostock. She also won the Interna-
tional Aerial Performance Championship
in Hong Kong last year after only a year
of doing the sport.
Aerial Silks is a type of performance in
which one performs aerial acrobatics
while hanging from a special fabric. Per-
formers climb the
suspended fabric without the use of safe-
ty lines, and rely only on their training
and skill to ensure safety. They use the
fabric to wrap, suspend, fall, swing, and
spiral their bodies into and out of various
positions.
A friend of mine suggested trying a
class as she thought it would be right up
myalley, and shewas right Iwashooked
after my first class, Sissons says. The
combination of dancing high up in the air
combined with adrenaline and flight tugs
at the very core of my heart strings! I feel
alive up there; I get to put my heart and
soul on a plate while I am performing.
Sissons choreographs her own routines
and designs her own elaborate costumes.
I feel that it was my choreography and
performance ability that gave me the win-
ning edge. I love performing to an audi-
ence. I leave my heart up
there when I fly.
When Sissons is training
for a competition, she tries to get
as many hours of practice in as
she can. This is usually about
four to six hours a week, and
is a combination of climb-
ing drills, stretching,
weight training and a
bit of Crossfit.
A photographer by profession, as well as
a wife and a mother of two boys, Sissons
says finding time to practice her passion
can be difficult.
Sissons plans to compete in and win
the next international performance cham-
pionship in Hong Kong.

C
ommunity Cohesion is doing their bit to
help youth, in conflict with the law, to be-
come better citizens.
This non-profit organisation helps teens
by setting them back on track. Currently
they are working with boys and girls, aged
between eight and 17, who have found them-
selves on the wrong side of the law. Instead
of being sent to prison, they are encouraged
to joinCommunity Cohesions TheDoorway
Programme. Their service delivery areas
are Hout Bay, Ocean View, Masiphumelele,
Fish Hoek, Simons Town and Woodstock.
This programme is aimed at minors in
conflict with the law, and is for both girls
and boys, says BronwynMoore, director of
Community Cohesion.
Though they started in Imizamo Yethu
they have a big plans up their sleeve. They
are planning to roll out The Doorway and
Men of Honour programme in Masiphume-
lele in 2016/2017 financial year and Ocean
View in 2017/2018 financial year.
Men of Honour is an after-hours pro-
gramme focussing on the nature of violence
and trauma, personal development through
to anger management and conflict resolu-
tion.
Moore says: Wewant to establish support
groups for Masiphumelele for collective as-
sistance to deal with constant victimisation
and secondary trauma. This encompasses
training facilitators and providing basics
for the support groups that is tea, coffee and
the venue. We would like to do this in 2016
still.
Started four years ago, they are funded in
part for their Victim Empowerment Pro-
gramme by the Department of Social Devel-
opment. They are funded for their One
School at a Time (Osat) by Swiss Re Africa,
and per programme roll-out for Men of Hon-
our and The Doorway by private donors liv-
ing in the service delivery areas.
Moore says many organisations work
with troubled youth in schools. We were
dealingwith the fallout of the youthwhohad
no guidance nor parental input, and most of
the time were left to their own devices. In
partnership with the Community Police Fo-
rum, we work very closely with the police
to figure out some kind of solution for these
minors something other than giving up
and saying there is nothing that can be done
with them.
The programme is an intensive reposi-
tioning and reframing of their views, their
lives and their goals. Manyof the thepartici-
pants are too old to enter the formal school-
ing system at the grade they last passed, so
they were enrolled at Sijonga Phambili.
They have their fees paid for the six-month
long programme.However, they also have to
pay for their petty crimes by washing po-
lice cars at Hout Bay police station every
Monday. This is their giveback for their
school fees at Sijonga Phambili being cov-
ered. They started out at the wrong end of
the police, being apprehended doing petty
crime, and now are giving back by being
seen as part of a solution as opposed to a
problem, says Moore.
The programmes are very successful pro-
gramme in ImizamoYethu.We are very hap-
py at the response from the people taking
part thatswhywewant to roll it out to others
areas as well to reach more people.
It is early days and they still have a way
to go, yet they have solidly said goodbye to
their past and are trying to determine their
future, Moore says. We do not do anything
for our clients we educate them as to their
rights and responsibilities and walk the
pathwith them to claiming those rights, ulti-
mately enabling them to take ownership of
their lives.

D
ominic Notten is a surfer riding the
crest of thewaves after winning the stu-
dent championships this year.
Top surfing students from different terti-
ary institutions around South Africa re-
cently took part in the annual University
Sport of South Africa (USSA) Surfing
Championship held at Victoria Bay and
Herolds Bay.
HomeboyNotten, a second year IIEBach-
elor of Commerce degree student at City
Varsity in Claremont, surfed his way to the
top winning the mens devision.
The victorious surfer, who lives in Wyn-
berg but spent his youth in Kalk Bay, has
been taking part in the event since 2014 but
this is the first year that he got into the fi-
nals.
Ive always enjoyed taking part in this
event and it was great to win, he says.
For the first two years the waves were
fantastic but this year the conditions forced
the organisers to call off one of the days and
move the competition to Herolds Bay.
That worked in my favour because the
waves are a left hand wedge that is harder
to surf. My advantage is that I am a goofy
footer (the left leg instead of right is at the
front of the board) and it was suited to my
style.
We had to get through a lot of surfing
and by the time the final started the light
was fading but the waves were great.
This wasmy first final and I was just en-
joying myself with no added pressure but
I managed to get the pick of the waves and
pulled off the win.
Nicole Pallet, Varsity College Durban
North (3rd year IIE Bachelor of Arts in Cor-
porate Communication degree), won first
place in the womens division for the sec-
ond consecutive year.
It was great to see how well the surfers
have continued to do over the past few
years at theUSSA surfing championships,
says Jody Taylor, regional sports coordina-
tor at Varsity College.
What is rewarding for the team, is that
they have achieved well, while having a
great deal of fun.
The Varsity College Sports Club offers a
variety of different sporting clubs that ca-
ter for beginner sessions as well as ad-
vanced sessions.
These activities are fun, healthy and
geared towards the individual as well as
students who are more team orientated.
Students are encouraged to get active,
meet newpeople and relish the opportunity
to participate on either a social or a compet-
itive level like the USSA championships.

MIKES OCEAN TALES
The problem
with my catch
is bycatch
Bycatch the catching and dis-
carding of marine species that
are not intended to be caught
in the ocean is a huge problem
that is drastically affecting the
fish andmarinemammal popu-
lations within the ocean.
A study done a few years ago
found that approximately 1.5
tons of fish are discarded every
night by shrimp trawlers in
Australia alone.
This is a result of the high de-
mand for certain fish species by
consumers and the large
amount of money that fisher-
man canmake out of this indus-
try.
These fishermen use tech-
niques to capture as many fish
as possible and these tech-
niques are particularly harm-
ful, often resulting in the cap-
ture of non-target fish species.
Fishermen often discard
these fish as it is often illegal to
sell them.
But the problem is that the
fish, accidentally caught, are
often dead when discarded into
the ocean.
These fishing techniques can
often result in the complete de-
struction of the habitats of
many fish.
If you go to a local fishing
boat when they are pulling in
their nets, like the fishermen
on FishHoek beach, you can of-
ten see rays, small dolphinsand
a large variety of other marine
organisms in their nets along
with their intended catch.
This is just a local example of
an international problem, and
there are much larger vessels
being used in the ocean in com-
parison to the one that we see
on Fish Hoek beach.
Due to the vulnerability of
certain fish populations in the
ocean, bycatch can possibly de-
liver the final blow tomany dif-
ferent susceptible fish popula-
tions.
Even if government issues
quotas for vulnerable fish, this
is not dealing with the problem
of bycatch.
A method to combat this has
already been introduced in
trawl nets, which acts as an es-
cape pathway. This allows cer-
tainmarinemammals and larg-
er fish to pass through and es-
cape the net before it is brought
to the surface. This has already
had a positive impact on the
populations of many marine
animals such as sharks anddol-
phins. But not all non-target
fish are able to escape through
these pathways.
We need to seriously look in-
to developing techniques that
can reduce the amount of by-
catch that takes place within
the ocean.
We also need to, as a commu-
nity, consume fish that are cap-
tured using non-harmful fish-
ing techniques. Otherwise, cer-
tainmarine life thatwe cherish
may not be around for the fu-
ture generations to see. They
may be reduced to looking at
these fish in aquariums or in
books.

Dogs needed to fight crime
I read with great interest
articles written about how
criminals are targeting vehicles
and stealing its owners goods
when they stop at the robots at
the intersection of Military Road
and Prince George Drive in
Lavender Hill. In almost mili-
tary tactic formation these
criminals manoeuvre between
the vehicles and then brazenly
in broad daylight rip open the
bakkies canopies and then steal
goods belonging to businessmen
and women transporting their
goods. The poor police are again
blamed due to lack of visible
patrols.
Now here is where I want to
come in and share a solution
that should deter these crimi-
nals. Before I share this idea I
want to give some credence to
my proposal by saying what I
had seen and experienced when
I was operational commander at
Table Bay Harbour police.
Whenever I held checkpoints
or searched ships and premises
I tried to have two types of
trained dogs to assist me and
my members: a drug detection
dog and a explosive detection
dog. These two trained canines
would sniff out drugs and
firearms which we as police
would not have detected.
During my service years we
had problems with stowaways
and then somebody came up
with the brilliant idea of
training private dogs to search
ships for these stowaways. I
personally know after many
years of service at the harbour
there are literally thousands of
hiding places on ships. Then one
day a ships captain and his
shipping agent came to my
office and asked us to help find
one of the ships highly trained
Rottweilers that got off the ship
via a gangplank. I asked this
foreign captain what did he
mean highly trained and he
informed me that on their
companys ships are these dogs
trained to attack on command
in their language if pirates
board their ships on the open
seas and when they came to
port the dogs with a crew
member would do guard duty.
We found the dog safe and
sound.
Before 1994 trained dogs were
used to do crowd control and
there I saw that a few dogs on
leashes with teeth blaring kept
hundred of people in line and
control. I always wonder lately,
when I see crowd control
violence, why the shotguns are
brought into play but there are
no the dogs assist the police to
restore law and order.
People who are really serious
about crime prevention have
dogs on their premises and
these dogs are the protectors
and detectors of criminals near
or on the property.We should
also look at the Neighbourhood
Watches coming on board with
trained guard dogs while they
are on crime prevention duties.
These businessmen have to
get dogs on the back of the
bakkies when transporting their
goods and place a board on the
back stating Beware of the
dog/Pasop vir die hond/Lum-
kela inja.
To those reading this letter it
is time we realise that we need
every resource out there to help
fight criminals. Superman and
Batman are a myths; mans best
friend is baking up the right
tree.

Ban the bottles
Why all the fuss about plastic
bags (Taking plastic out of the
ocean, Peoples Post, 5 July)
when plastic bottles are far, far
worse: up to 3000 years to break
down?
And most screw the lids back
on and fail to compress them...
hence the proliferation of waste
vehicles carrying a lot of air!
Many of these balloons are
easily blown into the sea too.
My summed up feelings are:
Dont recycle.
Stop buying the junk in the
first place!

Kim Kallie, Judy Page, Magdalene Min-
naar, Lynelle Kenned and seven-time
SAMA-nominated girl band, BlackByrd.
Following the success of the first Di-
vas Unite concert presented in the Cape
Town City Hall last year, we are delight-
ed that GrandWest came on board this
year, says event producer, Barbara
Lenhard.
In the true spirit of togetherness and
unity, this gives us thewonderful oppor-
tunity to raise funds for two charitable
organisations and pay tribute to South
Africas exceptional women in an even
bigger way with an amazing selection of
incredible singers and musicians.
And what a selection they are. Them-
beka Mnguni recently captured the
hearts of South African TV audiences
when shewas selected as one of the final-
ists ofTheVoice SA. Shewas the first tal-
ent who had three coaches turn their
chairs during her blind audition and she
also landed an exclusive recording con-
tract.
Acclaimed soprano, Magdalene Min-
naar, was invited to share the stagewith
international superstar, Josh Groban,
and in March this year, TV presenter
and soprano, Lynelle Kenned, walked
away with a prestigious Fleur du Cap
Award for her performance as Maria in
West Side Story. Adelia Douw, the young
jazz songstress from Cape Town, who
won the OpenMic Jazz Competition last
year, is another star in the making.
Anewaddition to the concert this year
will be performances by the winner and
all finalists of the first Divas Unite
Young Divas Singing Competition. The
new talent search, open to young female
singers between ages eight and 18, was
hosted at the V&A Waterfront in June
where the remarkably talented, Dirja
Lekas, from Strand was crowned as the
Young Diva 2016.
Musical accompaniment will be pro-
vided by an all-female Cape Town Phil-
harmonic Orchestra, the Divas Unite
Choir and newly found violin duo, The
Grey. The conductor will be Brandon
Phillips and the show will be compred
by award-winning TV presenter, Katle-
go Maboe.
In support of women in need, a per-
centage of ticket sales will benefit the
Saartjie Baartman Centre for abused
women and children in Athlone, as well
as Project Flamingo which supports
breast cancer patients in the public
health sector.
V Tickets for Divas Unite 2016 cost between R180
and R220 or R120 for children between the ages
of six and 12 and are available at Computicket.
Uniting for Womens Day
Thembeka Mnguni of The Voice SA fame is
one of the divas performing at this years
concert.

JOSEPH PILLAY
A
rejuvenated Stanturf United
side turned the game on its
head, fought back remarka-
bly well and silenced their critics
with a come-from-behind 4-3 victo-
ry against Strandfontein in a Safa
Cape Town Coca-Cola Cup match
on Sunday.
The all-Mitchells Plain LFA der-
by in the round of the last 64 was
a game that had a bit of everything
including drama in which two
players from the Strandfontein
side, namely Chad Jones in the
first half and Shamiel Young dur-
ing the second half, received
marching orders from referee An-
war Alexander for a deliberate
handball and dangerous play re-
spectively.
Although the Seagulls were
playing on their home turf at the
Strandfontein sports complex,
they had to be content to finish this
high intensity game with nine
players.
Strandfontein were foolish to be
reduced to nine players and no
doubt brought it upon themselves
though they gave it their all, they
were pressurised by a transformed
and aggressive Stanturf side who
were equally determined to pro-
ceed to the next round.
Asa result, StanturfUniteds vic-
tory will see them pitting their
skills against Young Pirates of Hei-
develd LFA on Sunday 24 July in
the round of the last 32.
Besides Jeanne Valentyns Stan-
turfUnited,BeaconSpurs is theon-
ly other team fromMitchells Plain
who are amongst the surviving
contestants while Liverpool-Port-
land, Juventus, Cedar United
Heinz Park, Ashley Rovers, High-
lands Park, Juventus and Leeds
Lentegeur all joined Strandfontein
in making an exit.
Eric Davey, a club official of
Stanturf United, says the players
held their nerve and came back aft-
er being 2-1 down to score three
goals in the secondhalf andwin the
game 4-3.
I think we were just a different
side after the changeover and our
endurance and skill on the ball
were the key factors to our match-
winning success, adds Davey.
For the Seagulls, SeanleighGlad-
den scored a brace and Ian Floris
added the third goal while Abdul-
lah Davis, Marlon Opperman (2)
and Monray van Niekerk scored
for Stanturf United.
. Liverpool Portland blew it.
After having held a comfortable 2-0
cushion against Grassy Park Unit-
ed, they ended level 3-3 at normal
time and lost 7-6 on penalties in an
interesting shootout challenge in
which both teams were successful
with their first five compulsory
spot kicks.
In another exciting and see-saw
game both goalkeepers Kurt
Timm (Cedar United) and Nazier
Stoffels (FC Orient) were equal to
the task and brought off a few ex-
cellent saves that produced good
entertainment.
With that in mind FC Orient
shaded Cedar United 2-1 and will
meet their Manenberg neighbours
D&G Orient (who beat Tottenham
Hotspurs 1-0) in the next round.
Rushen Abrahams in the no.3
shirt is a livewire and a bundle of
energy and it showed on the field
as he helped himself to two goals
with the decisive winning goal
coming in the 83rd minute.
Cedar United scored first in the
first half through Nazeem Cloete
while Orients Dale America and
Gareth Syms caught the eye with
good dribbling touches.
Also at Strandfontein, the Athlo-
ne LFA side, SSSAcademywon the
nine-goal contest battle against
Heinz Park ofMitchells Plainwith
a 6-3 result.
Super-sub Isma-eel (Gallie) Val-
entine will be remembered more
for scoring five of the goals for SSS
Academy.
Meanwhile Young Idols the de-
fending champs entered the last
32, thanks to goals from Durand
Mitchell and Shannon Hendricks
they beat Greenwood Athletic 2-1
in Manenberg and will face three-
time former champions James-
town United in their next game.
