BESIDES fixing the blocked sewera-ge pipe, the swamped area needs tobe rehabilitated. The overheadpowerlines need to be retrofittedwith effective bird diverters andlight emitting flappers immediatelyfor visibility at night and orangemarker balls that are used to warnaircraft.These are the recommendations of

Tania Anderson, manager of theSave the Flamingo campaign.She responded to the news that do-

zens of dead flamingos were disco-vered close to the Kamfers Dam inHomestead last weekend. They werefound without any visible scars ormarks on them.A delegation visited the site last

week and called for an investigation

to be done.Upon investigation, it was found

that rocks had caused a blockage inone of the chambers of the pipes lea-ding to the Homevale Waste WaterTreatment Plant which then re-sulted in a back-up.The water quality of the toxic

swampwill be tested and a post mor-tem of the flamingos will be done.“It will be interesting to see what

the cause of death was. One theorywas that the flamingos had collidedwith overhead powerlines above theswamp. If this is true, then marksfrom the impact with the cablesshould be evident on the flamingos,”Anderson said.According to her, the planned con-

struction of anew flamingobreedingisland can only be donewhen thewa-ter level in the dam is constant and

the water quality of the sewage fromthe treatment plant is good enoughto pump elsewhere.“It is time to get the treatment

plant functioning maintained.There is no time to waste,” she said.According to Save the Flamingo,

thebirds’ breeding is in serious trou-ble.Very poorly treated sewage from a

dysfunctional sewageworks is flood-ing into it and a large housing deve-lopment has been proposed near thearea.Thequality of thewater in thedam

has been in the news continuouslywith an on-going increase in sewageeffluent being released into theKam-fers Dam.Patrick Mabilo, MEC for Environ-

ment and Nature Conservation, saidhe was extremely concerned by

these deaths.“I have promptly deployed a team

from the department which consis-ted of the Green Scorpions and aqua-tic scientist to do a site inspectionand to take water samples and havea look at the dead flamingos.“It is ourunderstanding thatwhen

you release water from a treatmentplant, it must meet certain waterstandards thatwill not harm the eco-logical integrity of the eco-systemand will not allow nitrification oreutrophication to take place.“We are part of the conservation

community that is looking at effortsthat are geared towards encouragingthe lesser flamingos to thrive andbreed in the Kamfers Dam.“We will do everything in our

power to avoid fatalities of our spe-cies like the flamingos,” saidMabilo.

THE simultaneous take­off of thousands of pink lesser flamingos at the Kamfers Dam outside Kimberleyis something to be experienced. There are an estimated 10 000 flamingos left at the dam and this numbercould soon decrease even further. A couple of years ago up to 50 000 were spotted here. Photo: Louis Heunis

ABOUT Kamfers Dam:) It is one of only four places inAfrica where the lesser flamin-go breeds.) The dam is currently the on-ly breeding locality for lesserflamingos in South Africa.) Kamfers Dam supports thelargest permanent populationof lesser flamingos in SouthernAfrica,withat timesup toanes-timated 60 000 individuals(comprising more than 50% ofthe southern African popula-tion).) Breeding on this island takesplace from October through toApril.) Kamfers Dam’s flamingoshave huge ecotourism and eco-nomic value for the city of Kim-berley. Many businesses usethe flamingo in their logos, andpeople come from across thecountry to see the birds.) The city has a FlamingoSchool, Flamingo Real Estate,FlamingoRaceCourse, Flamin-go Casino and a Flamingos net-ball team. Flamingos are alsoincluded in the emblems of theSol Plaatje Municipality andthe Frances Baard District Mu-nicipality.

ALIDA QUINN kon beswaarlik vir ’n lekker-der verjaardaggeskenk gevra het as toe sy enhaar seun, Stephen, verlede Dinsdag die san-ger-akteur Bobby van Jaarsveld se eregastewas. Hulle het ’n kompetisie gewen omhomnadie première van die nuwe Afrikaanse rol-prent, As jy sing, te vergesel. Dit is deur dieSondagkoerant Rapport aangebied.Alida, ’n pensioentrekker, het Sondag 63 jaar

oud geword.Hulle is die Dinsdagoggend na Johannes-

burg gevlieg en het die middag ’n driekwartierby hul vyfsterblyplek saam met Bobby en syvrou, Annatjie, deurgebring en baie foto’s ge-neem. Daarna is hulle na die Brooklyn-winkel-sentrum geneem vir die rolprent waarin heel-party vanSuid-Afrika se voorste sangers speel.Vir die Quinns was dit ’n hoogtepunt om op

die rooi tapyt te loopmetkameraswat omhulle

geflits het.Hulle is nadieBBP-gedeelte geneemwaar hulle met ’n glasie sjampanje skouersmet bekendes in die Afrikaanse musiekbedryfgeskuur het.“Daar was ’n paar bekendes soos Bok van

Blerk, Arno Jordaan, Robbie Wessels, Juanitadu Plessis, Steve Hofmeyr en Karlien vanJaarsveld saammet wie ons foto’s geneem het.“Bobby is eintlik nogal skaam. Hymoes oral

vir foto’s glimlag.”“Jy sien hierdie sterre net altyd op die televi-

sie. Almal was baie aangenaam, veral Robbie,Juanita, Annetjie en Karlien,” het Alida gesê.Ook die vroulike hoofspeler, net bekend as

Leah, het ’n goeie indruk by hulle gewek.Oor die rolprent self sê hulle dit was “baie

nice” en beveel enigiemand aan om dit te gaankyk.Volgens Stephen, ’n klerk by ’n eiendoms-

agentskap, was die ervaring ’n belewenis endie grootste prys wat hulle al gewen het.

Hy het namens sy ma vir die kompetisie in-geskryf.“Ek was verbaas toe Rapport my bel en sê

hulle het goeie nuus. Ek het gedink: Wattergoeie nuus sal hulle nou vir my hê?“Ek het my ma dadelik met die goeie nuus

gebel, maar sy was tjoepstil aan die ander kantvan die foon. Ek moes naderhand vra: ‘Is jydaar?’ ”Hulle sê dit was egter ietwat teleurstellend

dat die aandnieheeltemal verloophet sooshul-le voor die tyd ingelig is nie.In die brief wat Stephen geskryf het waarin

hymoesmotiveerhoekomsymamoeswen, hethy geskryf sy wou graag Liefling, die musiek-blyspel (met Bobby in die hoofrol), op die ver-hoog gesien het, maar kon dit nie bekostig nie.“Watter groter geskenk kan ek vir haar as

’n verjaardaggeskenk gee as omsaammet haargunsteling-sanger te gaan fliek?” het hy aange-voer.

LAATLAM-KLEINSUS is nou am-per twee.Dit beteken die pastorie-huishou-

ding is besiger as gewoonlik (as ditmoontlik is). Daar moet meer waak-saam na haar omgesien word.Die Engelse uitdrukking terrible

twos is sekerlik ’n eufemisme by alletweejariges. Op twee jaar is peutersnie erg nie, hulle is erger. Ter ver-sagting moet ek sê in ’n pastorie-huishouding verskil grootwordheelwat van ander huishoudings.Ek meen, soms sukkel ’n pa en ’n

ma om ’n kind soggens en saans indie kerk te kry. In menige pastorieis dit egter vanselfsprekend om totsoveel as drie, vier keer per Sondagin ’n kerk te wees en dikwels nog temoet luisterhoePa ’npreekherhaal.

Daarom moet dit as versagtingdien dat Kleinsus in haar 23maandeonlangs reedshaar sewendeprysuit-delingmoes deursit en nie juis opge-trek was daarmee nie.Nie dat sy buitengewoon woelig

was nie, dit is net dat prysuitdeling-vermaak by haar verbygaan.Daar is heelwat interessanter din-

ge omhaarmeebesig tehou.Die pro-bleem is dat daardie besighou-dingedikwels met raas, rondloop en aanalles karring, gepaard gaan.G’n wonder nie dat Ma in ’n stadi-

um besluit het die prysuitdelingword ’n magstryd tussen haar en

Kleinsus.Ná vele dreigemente, terwyl die

prysuitdeling ewe plegtig voort-gaan, probeer Ma die stryd wen.Maar in haar erg rasionele tweeja-

rige leefwêreld sou Kleinsus niehierdie stryd opgee nie. Daarom laatsy dit dawerend oor die saal bulder:“Ekke niks gedoen nie.”Ma het bloedrooi gebloos, Sus was

verontwaardig en intussen het trot-se pa’s, ma’s, oupas en oumas virwelverdiende prestasies hande ge-klap. Kleinsus was oortuig al daar-die handegeklap was vir haar en dithet haar aangemoedig om op haarpunt te bly en nog duideliker vir Mate sê: “Ekke niks gedoen nie.”As goue middeweg het Ma haar

aan die slaap gesus. Alles toe verge-te. Is daar iets mooier as die liefdetussen ’n Ma en haar baba?

KIMBERLEY-NUUSFLITSE van dieafgelope week:) Die Noord-Kaap se nasionale parke hetuitgeblink toe die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasio-nale Parke (SANParke) sy jaarlikseeerbewyse toegeken het. Die Mokala-Nasionale Park naby Kimberley is as diebes presterende park aangewys. Dit worddeur die uitvoerende hoof van SANParketoegeken en staan as die Koedoe-eerbewysebekend.) ’n Man is deur die polisie in die veldbetrap terwyl hy na bewering ’n hondgeslag het.Volgens Mario van der Westhuizen,

inspekteur van die DBV in Kimberley, hetdie polisie hom gebel om die hond in dieveld, tussen De Beers en Cassandra, teverwyder.Die polisie het die gebied gepatrolleer

toe ’n lid van die publiek hulle stop eninlig oor die verdagte optrede van ’n manin die veld.) Die Noord-Kaapse onderwysdepartementgaan R20 miljoen bestee in ’n poging omonderwysers na landelike en plaasskole tetrek en te behou. Altesame 246 skole en1 089 onderwysers word hierdeur geraak.Die departement het oor die afgelope vyf

jaar sowat R125 miljoen aan die ontwikke-ling van onderwysers bestee.) Die installering van 168 720 sonpanele bydie Droogfontein-sonkragpark buiteKimberley is afgehandel. Kevin Foster,projekbestuurder van Droogfontein, sê dieaanleg kan met internasionale projektevergelyk word.Hy sê die konstruksiespan sal oor die

volgende paar maande volstoom werk omte verseker die projek bly op koers.) ’n Huurkontrak, waarvolgens ’n Kimber-leyse skool ’n sportterrein teen R2 per jaarvan die munisipaliteit huur, staan nog in

die pad van die moontlike oprigting van ’nspesialis-hospitaal in die stad.’n Raadsbesluit in 2001 om die terrein in

Klisserville aan die St. Patrick-kollege(CBC) teen R2 te verkoop is op ’n spesialeraadsvergadering nietig verklaar. DieLife-hospitaalgroep wil ’n hospitaal op dieterrein bou.) Die enigste en baie bekende dubbelver-diepingplakkershuis in Greenpoint hetafgebrand. Die inwoner van die huis issteeds in skok oor al haar besittings wat syverloor het.Martin Herbanus het meer as 13 jaar

gelede dié plakkershuis op sy erf vir sydogter, Chrizelle Herbanus, gebou.) Die eerste registrasie vir volgende jaarse algemene verkiesing het goed verloop.Ockie Fourie, ’n DA-raadslid in Kimberley,het gesê heelwat jong mense het hulle bydie Laerskool Dutoitspan geregistreer.Rosie Ludick, ’n Cope-raadslid in Kimber-ley, het dit beaam.Die ANC was ook tevrede met die

verloop van die registrasienaweek en issteeds hoopvol hy sal 70% in die provinsiebehaal.) Die leier van die Geloftevolk-republikei-ne, André Visagie, is in die landdroshofaan die onwettige besit van vuurwapens,wapen-onderdele en ammunisie skuldigbevind. Sy seun, Jan (18), wat saam methom aangekla is, is vrygespreek. ’nVonnisdatum sal later bepaal word.

VROËER jare was ’n kamera nie virelke Jan Rap en sy maat beskore nie,maarmetdie vooruitgangvandie teg-nologie kan enigeen wat deesdae ’nselfoon besit, hom- of haarself ’n foto-graaf noem.Deesdae het omtrent elkeeen ’n ka-

graaf, hoewel ’n amateur. Want daaris nogal ’n groot gaping tussen ama-teur- en professionele fotograwe.Selfoonkameras was natuurlik nie

eens ’n gedagte toe ek ’n kindwas nie.

Toe ek 11 jaar oud was, het ekmy eer-ste basiese Kodak-kamera gekry. Ekhou van natuurfoto’s en neem graagblommeenwindpompeaf.Ekhouookvan aksiefoto’s. Toe ek 33 jaar oudwas, het ek besluit om fotografie ern-stig te beoefen. Ek het ’n onderne-ming gehad wat raamwerk gedoenhet endieGriekwaland-WesseRugby-unie het rugbytruie by my laat raam.Ekvra toe eendagvir dieuitvoeren-

de hoof wie vir die unie foto’s neem.“Is jy ’n sportfotograaf?”hethygevra.“Ja,” het ek dadelik geantwoord.“Kom sien my môre, dan praat

ons.”Ons tref toe ’n ooreenkoms en die

res is geskiedenis.

Ek het dadelik virmy ’n kamera ge-koop, maar net twee weke later is dituit die winkel gesteel. In daardie tyd

het Canon die Rebel-kamera uitge-bring en ek het een aangeskaf. Ek hetfoto’s geneem dat die biesies bewe.Ek het ’n fotografiekursus gevolg

by ’n ouwat inligting van die internetvir ons voorgelees het. Ek het daardiekamera verkoop en vir my Canon se20d gekoop en troues begin afneem.Ek het later vir my ’n 30d en ’n 70-

200 mm f2.8 gekoop. Nou was ek virjou cool en het alles afgeneem: atle-tiek, rugby, motorfietse, ballet, man,sommer alles. Maar eintlik het ekniks van fotografie af geweet nie.Ek het met Jaco Powell, ’n profes-

sionele wildfotograaf, bevriend ge-raak en daardie dag het ek fotografieontmoet. Ek het geleer wat ek veel

vroeër al moes geleer het – hoe ’n ka-mera werk, die verskillende funksiesen waarvoor dit gebruik word.Gou het Jaco baie dingemet my ge-

deel wat die wêreld van fotografie virmy oopgesluit het. Ek lewe vir foto-grafie en ek raak beter. Vandag ver-staan ek ’n kamera en kan ek myselfhelp.Om ’n fotograaf te wees moet jy ’n

paargoedweet. Jymoetnederigwees.Jy moet mense, diere, jou omgewing,die skepping en jou God respekteer.Jy moet respek vir jou toerusting hê.Ek hoop jy geniet my rubrieke

waarin ek voortaan in Noordkaap ’nbietjie van verskillende aspekte vanfotografie gaan vertel.

DIE Lapésa-tennisskool in Kimberley vier inApril sy 30ste bestaansjaar en in dié 30 jaar wasdaar min beter jare as dié van 2013.

Twee van die skool se spelers – Anja Lubbeen Kiara Wakeford – is vanjaar met nasionalekleure beloon.

Lapésa, ’n kombinasie van Lappies en TerésaLaubscher se name, het ontstaan toe die tweeLaubschers en hul drie kinders hierheen ver-huisenhulle tweemet tennisafrigtingbeginhet.

Hulle het by ’n paar klubs afgerig voordat dieskool in 1990 ’nblywende tuiste inLawsonstraatgekry het. Die bane was onbruikbaar en verval-le endie bestaandeklubhuis (dieBelgrave-klub)is net vir sosiale geleenthede gebruik.

Lappies vertel die opknapping van die banewat hy behartig het, het tot sy konstruksiemaat-skappy aanleiding gegee. Lapésa Courts spesia-liseer in die ontwikkeling en herstel van tennis-bane. ’n Haarsalon, ’n huis en klein houthuisieswat verhuur word, is later op dieselfde perseelgebou.

Met Pa en Ma wat heeldag tennis afgerig het,was dit geen verrassing nie dat die kinders, Ja-ko, Johan en Wilmi, ook tennis gespeel het. Aldrie het provinsiale kleure verwerf met Wilmiwat ná skool aangehou speel het. Sy is ’n beursaangebied om in Amerika te studeer en tenniste speel, maar het dit van die hand gewys.

Haar pa het in 2001 opgehou afrig en twee jaarlater het sy by hom as tennisbreier oorgeneem.Wilmi sê sy het op skool reeds verkondig sy soueendag wou afrig. “Ek sal nie sommer vir hulpmet afrigtingvirmypavranie,maar ekgebruiknog baie van die tegnieke en kunsies wat ek byhom geleer het.”

Sy, Miemie Lubbe en Jandré Odendaal is aldrie gekwalifiseerde tennisafrigters. Reniervan Vreden (gevorderde instrukteur) en Marle-se Wilke (instrukteur) is die ander twee breiersby die skool.

Wilmi het haar man, Jaco, deur tennis ont-moet. Haar pa het hom afgerig en toe hy laterouers gaan vra het, was die Laubschers goedmet hul toekomstige skoonseun vertroud.

Sy sê ditwas vir haar ’n hoogtepunt om ’n spe-ler soos Kiara onder hande te neem vandat sybegin speel het. ’n Klompie spelers wat op skoolby die klub gespeel het, het daarna met ’n beursgaan studeer om tennis te speel. ’n Paar vanhul-le het heeltyds oorsee afgerig, soos NatashaStoop steeds in Amerika doen.

Tennis ishul lewe

WILMI DELPORT doen nou dit waarmee haar ouers, Lappies en Terésa Laubscher, byna30 jaar gelede in Kimberley begin het – tennisafrigting. Hulle het die Lapésa­tennisskoolin 1990 begin. Hier is hulle op die bane wat Lappies destyds herstel het toe die skool ’nblywende tuiste by die ou Belgrave­klub gekry het. Foto: Ruan Bruwer

DÍT is hoe vervalle die bane gelyk hetvoordat die Lapésa­tennisskool in1990 daar geopen is. Foto: Verskaf

DIE Hoërskool Noord-Kaap (HNK) hetsy keuse van afrigter vir die eerste rug-byspan bekend gemaak.Die skool het heelwat goeie aansoeke

ontvang sedert die pos geadverteer is enuiteindelik is op Shaun Huygen, wat inItalië afrig, besluit.Hy sal hom vroeg in Februarie by

HNK aansluit.Huygen, ’n voormalige losvoorspeler,

het kort ná sy uittrede by die Universi-teit van Stellenbosch se tweede klub-span, die Victoriane, as hulpafrigter be-gin. Hy het ook by dieMaties hand byge-sit en by Paul Roos-Gimnasium en dieHoërskool Oosterlig afgerig.Hy is die afrigter by die Modena-klub-

span in Italië (waar hy sedert 2007 afrig)en het die klub van die derde na die eer-ste divisie gebrei.Die skool het ook bekend gemaak dat

Leon van Blerk, wat tot vanjaar dieGriekwas se fiksheidsafrigter was, ’ngroter rol by HNK sal vervul. Hy gaanheeltyds al die skool se sportsoorte sekondisionering behartig.Die res van die eerste span se breiers-

korps sal later in samewerkingmetHuy-gen aangestel word.HNK het die laaste jare onder Henk

Brand se afrigting ’n goue tydperk op dierugbyveld beleef en hom onder dievoorste 20 skolespanne in die land ge-vestig.Die eerstes het sedert Brand in 2009

heeltyds die hoofafrigter geword het dieKovsiestreek-kompetisie se Shimla-liga(vir mediumskole) elke jaar gewen endaarmee beklemtoon dat hy naas Grey-kollege geen gelyke in Sentraal-Suid-Afrika het nie.
