Schools across the city have been mobil-ised to nip the not-so-latest occult craze

in the bud while it is mushrooming acrossthe country.

The “Charlie Charlie” game has had manyparents wondering what can be done to pre-vent their children from being exposed to itsnature, while others have continued to viewit as harmless fun conjured up by the vibrantminds of the youth.

A host of local schools have reported in-stances where children have been found tobe playing the game, with some teachers go-ing on to say that they have brought an endto the activity before losing control of the sit-uation. “We have nipped it in the bud,” saysan unnamed source at one of the schools.

“We have had children come to us to saythat their fellow pupils have stopped playingthe game after telling them about it beforewe addressed them about the issue.”

Despite the dangers, or even non-dangers,which may exist, the fact that children havetaken to the game indicates that alternativeactivities need to be found to cultivate amore harmonious environment for childrento interact in.

The game was originally played by Span-ish-speaking girls as a way to “enquire”which boy may like them, but the game hasre-incarnated itself this year in the form ofthe “Charlie Charlie challenge”. This oc-curred when English-speaking youth adapt-ed the paper and pencil game after a videoof the game was posted on Twitter. The vid-eo, originally intended to be humorous, hassince evolved into a more taboo activity withparticipants of the game asking a “demon”named Charlie to answer their questions in-stead.

The Western Cape education departmenthas warned that the public should be careful

when dealing with incidents of the CharlieCharlie type. “Children should be encour-aged to discuss any ‘uncomfortable’ feelingsabout the incident with their teachers, whocould then initiate procedures for the propertherapeutic response processes. Actual in-stances of bullying or coercion could cer-tainly have negative effects on the child, butearly identification and effective interven-tion can ameliorate the initial effects as wellas the long-term consequences.”

The department also states that provi-sions have been made in the curriculum toteach children to make more informed deci-sions and equip them with knowledge oftheir rights.

“Regular playground supervision byteachers would also go a long way to curtail-ing such activities and it is also importantfor parents to communicate continually

with their children and to discuss all thegrowth and developmental issues as well asany situations arising from specific inci-dents at schools.”

Manenberg police spokesperson Lieuten-ant Ian Bennett maintains that althoughschools in the area have reported instancesof the game being played, it points to a biggerproblem within communities. “People for-get how powerful young people are. This isa case where there is nothing (spiritual) hap-pening in schools. Therefore, there is noform of moral understanding in place andyoung people go in search of something newand exciting because they become boredwith the day-to-day things in life.”

Bennett further says the mainstream me-dia is partly to blame for the notoriety of thegame, which has only stirred excitementamong children to start experimenting withit. “Children are curious beings; they wantto find things out when they are at schooland are experimenting with them all thetime. We as adults need to channel chil-dren’s energy. That energy needs to be con-ducted and channelled into something good.They have a rightful place in our society andwe need to ensure that they have a specialplace in our community.”

Warren Rossiter, principal of HazendalPrimary School, is aware that regardless ofthe activity the children get involved in, theschool is constantly creating awarenessamong pupils regarding the consequences offollowing mass hysteria. He urges parents toencourage their children to participate inpositive activities and to involve themselvesmore in their children’s lives.

“Many of the things that the childrenbring to school, they learn in the streets, intheir neighbourhoods. It spreads throughthe schools and then it goes back again intotheir respective neighbourhoods. We arereaching out to parents, because we don’thave a sufficient involvement of parents.

Schools will stop ‘Charlie’

Phillips says gangs were warned tocease all criminal activities.

Added to this, he says a list of ad-dresses was handed to the departmentof safety and security so that evictionnotices can be issued to the homeown-ers.

Ward councillor Melanie Arendsesays she was happy with the responseto the walkabout.

“I am very proud of the communityfor taking a stand and being proactivein the fight against crime. The resi-dents did not wait for more gunshotsto ring out in the community, theytook a stand,” Arendse says.

She adds that the area was quietsince the march that was held on Wom-en’s Day in August.

“We heard rumours that there willbe a gang fight in the area again overthe (past) weekend. We have identifieda few houses in the area where drugdealing is taking place as well as wheregangsters live, because these two is-sues go hand in hand.

“We are going to tell them to stopwith their activity or they need toleave the community. They have to beput to shame and we as a communityneed to take away their power,” Ar-endse says.

She adds that although threats weremade “we need top keep doing whatwe’re doing”.

“It can be expected that they wouldretaliate in that way. But just for thefact that they feel the need to retaliatetells us that we hit a nerve becausethey now feel threatened as well.

“We just need to remain headstrongfor this cause,” she says.V What are your thoughts? Starting with theword “Post”, SMS your views to 32516. SMSescost R1

The City of Cape Town’s mayoral com-mittee has proposedwhat it believes isa “game-changing” policy for the localtaxi industry.The proposal aims to benefit the

minibus taxi industry, the City says ina statement. The policy could be imple-mented if the council approves it.Brett Herron, mayoral committee

member for transport, says the policywould improve conditions for the com-muters who use taxis.“Once the minibus taxi industry is

transformed into formal businesses,other roadusers andemployeeswithinthe taxi industry and the city will alsoreap the fruits, as it will be in themini-bus taxi operators’ financial interestto improve self-regulation and servicestandards,” he says.Herron says the City wants to work

with theminibus taxi industry in find-ing solutions thatwill benefit commut-ers and operators.He envisages a model in which taxi

operatorswillwrite up business plans.He suggests that the model will lead toless speeding and reckless driving bytaxi drivers as theywill no longer needto compete for passengers to meettheir daily targets and that operatorswill be encouraged to use the correctsizes of minibuses for specific routes,leading to less overcrowding.‘‘A well-oiled minibus taxi industry,

managed in accordance with soundbusiness principles, is in the interestof us all,’’ says Herron.

Aplan to eradicate gang activity anddrugsat Pelican Park High School has already

gotten underway.Eagle Eye neighbourhood watch and Peo-

ple against Gangsterism and Drugs (Pagad)have adopted the school so that pupils canfocus on learning and teachers can teach in-stead of being sidetracked by outside influ-ences.Watch chairpersonMuhammadAllie says

they have partneredwith the school tomakeit a safer environment for pupils to be taughtat and to make the community safer too.“We have started regular patrols outside

the school in the morning and the afternoonto ensure pupils are disciplined and orderly.The principal has also agreed for us to haveaccess to the school for safety and securityreasons, if and when they need it,” Alliesays.

He adds pupils have been receptive tothem.“Wehavenoticed that pupils are now leav-

ing school in an orderly fashion. Also,whereas we saw pupils walking with ciga-rettes in the open, they no longer do that,”Allie says.Pagad project manager and coordinator

Aslam Toefy says the organisation has real-ised that “drugs are sticking out its uglyhead at schools”.“Drugs have been there and teachers are

finding it very difficult to deal with the is-sues of drugs and gangsterism in theschools. This has resulted in schools not be-ing conducive to learning and teaching,”Toefy says.Toefy adds that the programme, which fo-

cuses on three main aspects, has alreadybeen rolled out at Trafalgar High School.“The principal contacted us as an organi-

sation to assist them to eradicate drugs fromthe school. The school did have a drug pro-

gramme, but they said it was not workingbecause the pupils were still very unrulyand they were disrupting classes. And withthis, instead of teaching, teachers were run-ning around trying to get pupils back intoclasses who were busy with other activitiesinstead of attending their classes. Thereforethey approached us for help,” Toefy says.According to Toefy the programme has

been running at Trafalgar for just over threeweeks and they have already seen positiveresults.“We came upwith amodel of how to assist

the school and how to make it more condu-cive to learning. We will focus on three as-pects with this programme, which includessafety and security, life skills and career gui-dance. This will bring stress relief to teach-ers and pupilswill also be offered free adviceand counselling from our offices,” Toefy ex-plains.V What are your thoughts?

Out of the fireand into rehabASTRID FEBRUARIE

@FebAstrid

The Grassy Park SCPA wildlife rehabili-tation division received a much-needed

donation from Lew Geffen Sotheby’s Inter-national Realty in Tokai.The funds donated to the wildlife section

of the SPCA comes as a result of a propertysold in Zwaanswyk.Dawn Bloch, a property consultant at the

realty agency, says she informed MeganReid of the SPCA about a month ago thatit had been selected for the R20 000 dona-tion, a part of the sale commission on theproperty.“The property we sold is near the Tokai

forest and was burnt down in the recentfires. To acknowledge the work done byMegan’s division in rehabilitating the ani-mals of the Tokai forest we decided to givethem a portion of the money made on thesale,” she says.

Badly burntBloch says three homes in Zwaanswyk

were badly affected by the fires and one ofthem burnt to the ground.“At 3 Almondbury Lane, although the

main house was burnt down, the guest cot-tages were spared. Part of the main houseas well as the whole of the cattery at Purr-more in Thorpe Close also burned down,”she says.She says extensive damage was also done

to trees and fencing, including those at Sa-hibi, which is a 12-acre property with amain residence and several livery stables.“In spite of thedevastation to the area, the

property market has quickly stabilised asresidents have repaired fences and cleared

the debris in record time, restoring the areaas far as possible to its pre-fire pristinestate,” Bloch says.

Good plansReid says they are extremely grateful for

the donation and have already put ideas to-gether as towhat themoney can be used for.“At the moment the SPCA have three ve-

hicles and it would be great if we could haveanother to do our work more effectively,”she says.They also have plans to establish an in-

digenous garden for the tortoises so thatthey can roam free among the plants andtrees. “We want the wildlife division to bea homewhere the animals can walk aroundfreely without being stuck in a cage all day.This also helps with their rehabilitationprogress,” she says.During the fires the division rehabilitat-

ed anumber of animals, including tortoises,porcupines and snakes.Some of the animals have been released

while others are still being looked after.Once these animals have completely recov-ered a decision will be made about wherethey will go.“Wemanaged to save two porcupines. De-

spite all effort by myself and my team threeporcupines did not make it,” she says.

Animal careThe wildlife division’s facility is mainly

used for short-term care, and if further at-tention needs to be given to animals theyare sent to various rehabilitation facilities.Reid says they are not looking for more

volunteers at this stage, but if anyone is in-terested they can contact the SPCA wildlifedivision and go through screening.

A new trend is taking off in GrassyPark, with criminals removing

manhole covers to gain access to ca-bles inside.According to Carola neighbour-

hood watch chairperson Neil Jaco-bus, they have had three incidents al-ready inwhich they noticedmanholecovers were removed.“The three incidents occurred in

the space of a few dayswhere the cov-ers were removed and these crimi-nals cut the cables inside.We suspectabout three guys who are guilty ofthese acts,” Jacobus says.According to Jacobus the thieves

use a spanner-like tool to lift off themanhole covers.“They normally do it during the

early hours of the morning when it’sdark. They then cut the cables outand sell it at these scrapyards in thearea,” he explains.Another resident and neighbour-

hood watch member, Ralph Tejada,says the neighbourhood watchshould have more rights entrusted tothem so members may successfullyapprehend suspects.“The situation with theft in our ar-

ea is deteriorating and we need theneighbourhood watch members tohave more rights. Our police can’t beall over the place at once so we needto apprehend suspects but also beable to defend ourselves in such situ-ations,” Tejada says.The members explain criminal activity

also tends to take place once the neighbour-hood watch ends their patrols at night.“They become aware of our presence in

thearea so theywait untilwearenot aroundbefore they come out and carry on their ille-gal activities. They will stand on cornersand signal to each other by means of whist-ling, almost as if to say it is safe to go ahead,”

Jacobus says.Tejada adds that they are provoked

by the criminals in the area.“When we conduct our patrols we

book in at the police station to informthem that we will be conducting pa-trols. Now when we see suspiciouscharacters in the area we ask themwhere they are going and what theyare doing out so late. These suspectswalk aroundwith bags on their backsin themiddle of the night. We call thepolice to inform them of the peopleloitering in the area that time of thenight but almost never get assistancefrom them,” Tejada says.Jacobus and Tejada have encour-

aged residents to be vigilant and toreport criminal activity immediate-ly.Grassy Park police spokesperson

Warrant Officer Wynita Kleinsmithsays that a new trend cannot be con-firmed yet.“No trend has been identified.

However, stop and searches and pa-trols are done by the police,” Klein-smith says.She adds that a 27-year-old man

wasarrestedonWednesday lastweekat 03:30.“The visible policing sector was

busy with patrols and complaintswhen thememberswere informed bya neighbourhood watch that a suspi-cious male with a bag was walkingdownAcaciaRoadwithwhat they be-lieved to be stolen goods. The mem-bers then found a man with copper

cables and house-breaking equipment,”Kleinsmith says.The suspect was arrested on charges of

possession of stolen goods and of house-breaking equipment.

Cable thieves uncovered

Zwaanswyk High School came third in thenational MySchool Sing With Us competi-tion.The competition is part of Woolworths’

strategic collaboration with the GrammyAward-winning musician Pharrell Willi-ams.The schoolwasoneof 200 entries frompri-

mary and high schools nationwide who allwanted a chance to sing with the star onstage when he visits South Africa.AlthoughZwaanswykHigh School has no

formal music department, a group of self-starters have set up an extramural singinggroup for the fun of it.To represent their strength, they chose

the song “Roar” by Katy Perry for their au-dition. The song has a lot of personal sym-bolism, the members say, about risingabove one’s circumstances and choosing tobe strong.

Learnt by earKyle Smith, a Grade 11 pupil andmember

of the singing group, says they feel privi-leged to have taken part in the competition.They did not expect to get as far as they did.“Wehaveno formal training and learn ev-

erything by ear and thiswas really an amaz-ing opportunity to showcase what we aremade of,” he says.Smith saysalthough theydidnotwin they

will continue to sing and perform.“We were first seen as the loser of the

school, butnowwehavemadeourmarkandsuddenly there is more interest in the sing-

ing group – more people want to join, butyou have to be committed andwilling to putin the extra hours,” he says.Sanet Ziller, the singing group’s coach,

says she is very proud of the pupils for whatthey have achieved and will continue tosupport them and provide them with thetraining they require.“This has been a good year for us and, de-

spite only coming third in the competition,it certainly has given the pupils a boost ofconfidence.“More and more pupils are wanting to

join now, but I am very selective when itcomes to joining the group,” she says.The group has also had other successes,

including winning the Facets competitionin the vocal ensemble category.Ziller adds that the grouphasbeen chosen

to perform in the City Hall for the Sing theChange organisation along with the Phil-harmonic Orchestra and other celebrityartists.

FinalistsWilliams personally selected the winner

after local judges Jon Savage, Katlego Ma-boe and Theo Crousworked through the en-tries. The local judges chose 10 finalists.The competition winner is Colin Mann

Primary School in Gauteng.The other finalists in the singing competi-

tion were Bergvliet High School from theWestern Cape, Wittedrift High School fromthe Garden Route, Dixon Academy of Edu-cationandProArteAlphenPark fromGaut-eng, St Mary’s DSG in KwaZulu-Natal andGonubie High School and Hudson Park Pri-mary School in the Eastern Cape.

Changes have been made in the way someresidents are charged for electricity and thenumber of free electricity units they get.Residentswhono longermeet the qualify-

ing criteria for the highly subsidised Life-line 1 or Lifeline 2 electricity tariffs werechanged to theunsubsidisedDomestic tarifffrom 1 September. These customers will nolonger qualify for free basic electricity allo-cations.A number of residents who no longer

meet the qualifying criteria for the Lifeline1 tariff were moved to the Lifeline 2 tariff.These residents will be charged the samerate as before, but they will now only quali-fy for 25 free units rather than 60.The Lifeline tariff is aimed at helping

poor residents, and is available for all cus-tomers who use less than 450kWh permonthonaverage,whouse aprepaidmeter,whose property valuation is less thanR300 000 or who receive a senior citizen ordisabled person rebate.Lifeline tariff customers will receive 60

units free if their average use is below250kWhamonth (Lifeline 1), or 25 units freeif their average use is between 250kWh and

450kWh a month (Lifeline 2).The following changes have been made:

. 5791 residents on the Lifeline 1 tariff weremoved to the Domestic tariff.. 8195 residents on the Lifeline 2 tariff weremoved to the Domestic tariff.. 62 669 customers on the Lifeline 1 tariffwere moved to the Lifeline 2 tariff and willqualify for 25 free units.Any resident on the Domestic tariff can

apply for the Lifeline tariff.“Furthermore, residents supplied via a

pre-paid meter are reminded that once theypurchase a certain amount of electricityduring a month, the rate they are chargedwill increase – sometimes dramatically de-pendingwhether they are a Lifeline or aDo-mestic tariff customer,” says Ernest Son-nenberg, mayoral committee member forutility services.“These customers should purchase only

the amount of electricity that they need foreach month, supplementing with smallerpurchases if necessary.“At the endof eachmonth, the systemwill

reset.”V For electricity tariffs visit www.capetown.gov.za.

A group of conservation volunteers has dis-covered a living plant so rare it was thoughtto be extinct.The plant, last documented in the 1940s,

was recently uncovered on Lion’s Head.The Granite Cape Flax (Polycarena silenoi-

des) was recently found by the Custodians ofRare and Endangered Wildflowers (Crew)team.With 39 species of Cape wildflowers classi-

fied as critically endangered, and 22 of theseextinct, finds like these are very special.This population of Granite Cape Flax will

nowneed to bemore fully assessed andmoni-tored, so that it’s endangered status can berevised, and more can be learnt about its lifeform and responses to fire and other threats,says Crew’s Gigi Laidler, who found the

plant.“I felt great excitement, mixed with trepi-

dation at first that I might be mistaken. ButI was elated when the expert confirmed thatone more of our more elusive targets hasbeen found and that we can now learn moreabout this species,” she says.Over 2500 sites are sampled by the Crew

team, with 850 species monitored that theyare concerned about. They have discovered19 new species and rediscovered another 23.“If we don’t know where our threatened

plants are found, we are not able to affordthem any protection. So recording exact lo-calities and population information aboutour threatenedplants is very important,” shesays.The information gathered by Crew is im-

portant for keeping the list of South Africa’sendangered plants up to date and for inform-ing local authorities and conservation agen-cies about areas that should not be developedand that require special conservation meas-ures, Laidler explains.“The biggest threat to plants is loss of habi-

tat. Some plants are very particular abouttheir environmental requirements to thriveand be happy. Our demand on land for hous-ing, agriculture, industry and recreation re-sults in less and less natural habitats remain-ing. The othermassive threat comes from in-vasive alien species that outcompete andoverrun our natural habitats,” she says.A number of volunteers give their time to

Crew, to assist in identifying andmonitoringendangered plant species.V Anyone who has a passion for plants, even if theyare not that knowledgeable about them initially, cancontact the Crew office to find where the closest Crewgroup of volunteers is that they can join.

“Labels belong on cans, not on hu-mans.”

These were the words of Lizelle vanWyk, CEO of the Cape Town Society forthe Blind (CTSB) in Salt River, while ad-dressing women at a Women’s Monthevent at the Society’s premises.Van Wyk said blind people shouldn’t

be defined by their disability becausethey have more to offer.Though themonth to celebrate women

has come and gone, CTSB has so muchwork to do. They are aiming to generateR20m over the next two years to help vi-sually impaired people to do differentthings, Van Wyk said.Part of the CTSB’s vision is to empow-

er themore than onemillion visually im-paired people in South Africa to becomerecognised, tax-paying, high-performingachievers and unlock their employmentopportunities. They believe that themoney would open doors for the manygifted visually impaired people in thecountry.Helen Zille, premier of the Western

Cape, and Natalie Maimane, wife of na-tional DA leader Mmusi Maimane, wereamongst the 260 guests who attended theevent. JennyMorris, a celebrity chef and

radio personality was themaster of cere-monies.Van Wyk said: “The organisation is

constantly confronted with social issueslike stigmatisation and stereotypes thatchallenge their efforts to seek employ-ment opportunities for blind people. La-bels belong on cans, not on humans. Wemust be the change agents that inspiretransformation. CTSB will have to workharder and smarter in order to ensuresustainable income.”Zille said: “Parents who display unu-

sual courage and fortitude in the face ofsetbacks and who rise above challengesto raise children with disabilities are in-dispensable to society.”Zille said parents who rose above the

enormous difficulties to overcome suf-fering were an important ingredient inbuilding community.Maimane applauded the CTSB’s work.“Organisations like this give blind

people their own voice and generate aplatform for the visually impaired to puttheir issues on the table.“All South Africans can be a Van Wyk

or Zille in their community by display-ing a heart and a passion for somethingthat ticked them off, and then turn thatinto a cause. As soon as you lift up wom-en, you lift up society because they arethe backbone of society,” she said.

Celebrity chef Jenny Morris, singer Aviva Pelham, provincial premier Helen Zille, NatalieMaimane, wife of national DA leader Mmusi Maimane, and Lizelle van Wyk, CEO of theCape Town Society for the Blind, were at a Women’s Month event held by the Society.

A museum telling the story of theMother City.This is the vision for the historic

Standard Bank Building in Adder-ley Street.Although there are more than 60

existing museums in Cape Town,none of them give an oversight ofthe history of theMotherCity, saysAnroux Marais, provincial minis-ter of cultural affairs and sport. Anew museum has not been openedin the city since 1988.It is expected that the museum

will first beproclaimedasaprovin-cialmuseumand then become a re-gional museum for the metropoli-tan area, she says.The museum will host perma-

nent exhibitions on thehistory anddevelopment of Cape Town from

the earliest times. The goal of themuseum will be to reflect the di-verse heritage of the people of CapeTown.Members of the public and heri-

tage organisations are encouragedto make submissions about whatthey would like to see in the dis-plays.

Head officeThe building, which is still

owned by Standard Bank anddubbed the “Queen of AdderleyStreet”, was completed in 1883 andbecame the head office for Stan-dard Bank. In 1922, two additionalfloors were added and a new domewas constructed on top of the build-ing.The property was originally

leased for £150, making the City’slease of R100 per year “a very gooddeal”, says Standard Bank’s pro-

vincial head Johan van Wyk.“This is, and perhaps will be, the

most prestigious branch StandardBank has ever had,” he says.It was decided in 2012 that the

building would never be sold dueto its heritage value and would beput to use in a philanthropic way,Van Wyk says.Thebuildingwill also serve as of-

fice space for employees of the de-partment of cultural affairs, whichwill enable the provincial govern-ment to save “a significant amountof money on office costs”, says pro-vincial minister of public worksDonald Grant.The relocation will be finalised

over the next three months, withthe museum expected to open latenext year.V Suggestions for exhibitions can beemailed to [email protected].

New charity shopfor animal loversThe brand new SPCA Ol’ Roy charity shop

officially opened on Saturday at its newlocation in Ottery.

Almost a year since the popular charityshop at the Cape of Good Hope SPCA inGrassy Park burnt down in an arson attack,this much-loved all-sorts store returns, big-ger and better than ever before – ready tocontinue helping animals in need.

In a new partnership with Ol’ Roy andMakro, the SPCA Ol’ Roy charity shop isnow at its own off-site location at Shop 22,Ottery Value Centre, Ottery Road and isready to begin serving the community.

If any proof was needed that this uniquecharity shop is what the community needs,then the R10 000 revenue from four hours ofsales on its opening day, would be just that.

The shop, previously housed in threewendy houses, was gutted by flames in No-vember last year. Thieves broke into the fa-cility and neglected to extinguish an openflame which can only be assumed was used

for light. A fire quickly raged through theshop premises, leaving nothing behind inits path. No staff or animals were harmedduring the fire.

All needsCatering for all sorts of needs of the sur-

rounding community, the charity shop pro-vides an opportunity to shop for appliances,bric a brac, clothing, linen, pet products,furniture and more.

All proceeds go directly to helping thethousands of animals who find refuge at theCape of Good Hope SPCA each year.

The shop will also, as a first, be stockingMakro’s exclusive brand of Ol’ Roy qualitydog food, as well as hundreds of second-hand good quality books from the BookShop.V For more information or to donate items for resaleat the charity shop, contact the Cape of Good HopeSPCA Ol’ Roy charity shop on 021 704 0683 or visitwww.spca-ct.co.za.

The SPCA officiallyopened its newoff-site charity shopat the Ottery ValueCentre after the oldcharity shop burntdown almost a yearago. The openingraked in R10 000 infour hours.

Manenberg residents who live in councilrental flats have raised concerns about

recent upgrades to the units, saying theyare “filled with flaws”.

During a recent meeting held by the Ma-nenberg Safety Forum residents said theyfelt the job done during the City’s upgradeprogramme was a job half done.

One resident, who did not want to benamed, said she was unhappy with thework done at her home.

“I am not happy at all because the work

they did was not of a high standard. Theycould have just left the flats the way it wasthen, if this is the case,” the woman said.

Roegshanda Pascoe of the ManenbergSafety Forum also highlighted her con-cerns regarding the community rental unitproject.

“The City of Cape Town says they spentR130 000 on each home but it’s still bro-ken,” she added.

City responseBenedicta van Minnen, mayoral commit-

tee member for human settlements, saysthe City “remains utterly committed to im-

proving the lives of our residents in Ma-nenberg”.

To the claims of cheap material beingused to complete the job, Van Minnen reas-sures this is not true.

“It must be emphasised that materials ofthe highest standard have been used in ac-cordance with the applicable nationalbuilding regulations and quality stan-dards. This includes high quality paintproducts.

Van Minnen explains the last of the Ma-nenberg units are being upgraded and 24families are living in the temporary accom-modation village while work on their flats

is completed.“Unfortunately, an unauthorised sus-

pension of work was instituted by Aecom.The City was considering its options, in-cluding the termination of the contract ofAecom, who has been involved in the pro-gramme in Manenberg.

“The Aecom contract has now been ter-minated and the City is utilising availableemergency procedures to proceed with theoutstanding work to ensure that familiesdo not have to endure an extended stay inthe temporary village longer than is abso-lutely necessary under these unfortunatecircumstances,” Van Minnen says.

“It’s only words, and words are all I have, to take yourheart away.” The Bee Gees may have written these im-mortal lines, but as we celebrate World Literacy Day thepower of words goes way beyond taking a heart away.For many it took our hearts to places and spaces we

would never ever dreamt of experiencing.For this young lad from the then dusty streets of Diep

River, learning to readwas one ofmy first joys into a jour-ney of discovery, and probably the first steps tomy careeras a journalist.Arthur Ransome’s words of adventure about a group

of youngsters enjoying country life and sailing took mymind to anotherworld that seemed foreign, but yet so realto fully understand the true meanings of family valuesand friendship.Eventually my appetite extended to the classic Greek

tales of mythology which was probably motivated by thelocal Carlton bioscope regularly treating us to those CecilBDeMille versions ofAchilles andHercules, butwhateverthe inspiration – the bug had bitten – and still bites withmy mind still craving the adventures that words take meon. Another joy of reading that increased the passionwasreading LP covers, discovering the inside stories of someof the legendary recordings of the likes of John Coltraneand Miles Davis that fuelled my love for music.Without reading the many stories of others we cannot

find ourselves, whichmakes the celebration ofWorld Lit-eracy Day that much more important in these timeswhere the electronic media takes over too many youngminds.The calming effect of turning the first page of a new

book, the excitement when you have to keep reading andthe joy, sometimes sadness at the end, is what it’s allabout.Sorry Bee Gees but words are much more than just

words – it’s your gateway to enlightenment.

LOUISA STEYL@lousteyl

He came, he taught, he left.By day he’s the sports presenter on

Good Hope FM’s breakfast show, but whenhe leaves the studio,DalinOlivier liveshistrue passion.The Retreat teacher-turned-comedi-

an will bring his hit one-man show,I came, I taught, I left, directed byStuart Taylor, to his home townafter two successful runs at theNational Arts Festival inGrahamstown.Before the comedy bug

bit, Dalin was all set to fol-low a career as a teacher.It was in his third year

at UCT that Dalin discov-ered comedy. Bored whilestudying for his finals, hestarted writing funny thoughts down. Afterpositive reaction fromhis friends, he started“googling” comedy hotspots and got his firstgig in November 2010.“Frommy first gig I knew: This feels good.

That space felt right, I felt like I belonged.”

Coming outAt the beginning of his fifth year, he sat

his parents down and let them know thatwhile it was important to him to finish hisstudies, he didn’t intend to actually teach.“They supported me through and

through.”He decided to do his teaching practicals at

his old schools, Wynberg Boys and SouthPeninsula High School. After graduating, healso did a six-week stint as a temporaryteacher atWynberg Boys, which he says wasnecessary to prove to himself that he wasn’tactually ready for teaching.“Knowing that I wasn’t going to teach, I

thought thiswould be a hub of content,mate-rial-wise.”Dalin describes his style as family-friendly

and observational with personal reflections.His comedycareerhasbeengrowing stead-

ily. He has toured with and opened for come-dians like Riaad Moosa, Stuart Taylor andBarry Hilton and also featured on ComedyCentral alongside Nik Rabinowitz and KurtSchoonraad.

Own showIn 2013 he performed at the Grahamstown

festival with the Cape Town Comedy Club.“I said: ‘Next year I’m coming on my

own.’”

Dalin started writing his one-man show inSeptember that year.“I had no idea what the show was going to

be about.”He put all his ideas on a mind map before

approaching Stuart Taylor, who’d given himhis first theatre show, for guidance.

“I trusted him and I respect his style ofcomedy.”I came, I taught, I left changed complete-ly when Stuart asked Dalin to describethe gist of what he wanted to say. Thesentence he came up with was: “Teach-er by day, comedian by night… try ex-plaining that to parents.”In the show, Dalin maps out his

school-related career, comparing amodel C, dual sex school with an all-boys school, looking at student lifeand then teaching alongside his ownteachers. He also discusses cricket,which has always been a big part ofhis life, specifically coaching chil-dren.

Dream come trueDalin says performing in different

environments has helped the showgrow and mature.“I think I’m bringing a well-struc-

tured, compact product to the Bax-ter.”Presenting a show at the Baxter is a

dream come true for Dalin who told his fa-ther when he started performing that hewanted to produce his own show there.“The Baxter is a sacred space.”Dalin points to the history of the Baxter

and says being afforded the opportunity tobe on its stage is a humbling experience.I came, I taught, I left will be on stage at

the Baxter Golden Arrow Studio from Mon-day 21 to Sunday 26 September. Tickets,which are available at Computicket, cost R60for the Monday night and R100 for the restofweek,with student, senior and block book-ing discounts available.V For more information about Dalin or to get a tasteof his comedy visit www.dalinolivier.com.

Spring into donating clothesTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Spring is slowly but surely gaining momen-tum and people are packing away their win-ter clothes. Instead of piling and stackingthem in old bags, with some not going to beusednext season,whynotdonate themto theButterfly Box?The first Butterfly Box shop will be open-

ing in Cape Town in October. This pop-upshop will be stocked with designer and topquality male and female clothing and acces-sories. It may become a favoured shoppingdestination for unique and designer items atbudget prices.The shop will be at the Threads Project,

349 Albert Road in Woodstock.All the proceeds from the items sold will

go to the Hospice and the Lonely Road Foun-dation.The initiative is one of many campaigns

that the Hospice Palliative Care Associationof South Africa is running. The Hospice isa hospice umbrella association founded in1987. It was created in response to a need ex-pressed by hospices to share best practicesand to support the development of a hospicemovement in South Africa that provides ef-fective, supportive care to communities inneed.The vision of the association is to provide

“quality palliative care for all”. Palliativecare is the holistic total care of people andthe support of their loved ones by a team ofdoctors, nurses, therapists, social workers,spiritual counsellors and volunteers.Sports personality Lucas Radebe is the

Hospice ambassador.Butterfly tattoos are available to buy in all

Primi stores across the country and fromhospices for R20. People are encouraged towear their tattoos in support of those givingand receiving palliative care or in memoryof a loved one.With World Hospice Palliative Care Day

taking place globally on Saturday 10 Octo-ber, the world comes together and speaksout in support of those giving and receivingpalliative care. The theme this year is “Hid-den lives, hidden patients – Compassion andcare for all”.Another fundraiser is a talent show at the

Baxter Theatre on Thursday 1 October at19:00. Entrants are pupils aged 13 to 18 years.It will be presented by radio DJ Guy McDo-nald, who will be joined by celebrity judgesactress Ayanda Tini and senior soloist atCape Town Ballet Xola Puyte.Tickets are available from Computicket.

City takes onpermits for UberNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

The City of Cape Town is set to take overthe licensing of metered taxis “immi-

nently”, says Brett Herron, mayoral com-mittee member for transport.Speaking at a business breakfast hosted

by Big Issue magazine, Herron and AlonLits, Uber’s general manager for Sub-Saha-ranAfrica, discussed the future of the indus-try and “e-hailing”, or using technology tohail a taxi. Earlier in the yearmedia reportsindicated that hundreds of Uber driverswere without operating permits, due to gov-ernment red tape at a provincial level.Operating licences are governed by na-

tional legislation, Herron confirmed. Al-though the City had supported over 1000 li-cences in Cape Town, only 200 had been ap-proved.There has also been an appeal process,

lodged by the Western Cape Metered TaxiAssociation and sparked by concerns thatUber taxi rates undercut the rest of the in-dustry.“There is nothing in the national legisla-

tion that matches the Uber operation mod-el,” Herron said.

But he was hopeful this would be changedin an amendment bill, and include taxis op-erating via e-hailing. Handing over the proc-ess to theCitywould speedup thepermittingprocess, Herron said.“We’re running out of road space and we

need to find ways to remove or reduce vehi-cle trips,” Herron said.Lits said permitting was out of Uber’s

hands, as the company was “a technologycompany and not a transport company”.And although Uber did background

checks on drivers as well as vehicle inspec-tions, they wouldn’t “differentiate betweendrivers with operating permits or driverswithout”.However, Uber did have big plans for the

future, he said. The company currently part-nered with 2000 drivers and planned to ex-pand this to 15 000 in two years.They were also looking at implementing

“Uberpool”, a system that would connectriders with others on a similar route and al-low them to share a taxi. Thiswould not onlyreduce the cost of the fare, but would alsoreduce the number of vehicle trips.“We want to change the future of mobility

and offer an alternative to car ownership,”Lits said.

Magazine hosts issues and asks public for helpThe slowdown in the economy has made itincreasingly difficult for theBig Issuemaga-zine to get the level of support it needs forits work.The magazine is holding a series of busi-

ness breakfasts, sponsored by and hosted atthe Table Bay Hotel, to introduce the public

to the magazine and to discuss firsthand thehot talking topics of the moment.The Big Issue “Big 200” campaign has also

launched, and aims to have 200 people orbusinesses pledge R200 per month to fundthe magazine’s work.V For more information visit www.bigissue.org.za.

Upsets aplenty in Coke CupJOSEPH PILLAY

The ever-popular Coca-Cola Cup did notonly bring droves of spectators from allparts of the Cape Peninsula to the Willi-

am Herbert sports complex on Sunday, butalso delivered its fair share of upsets in theround of 16.

Four former champions, Silver Spurs, Ry-gersdal, Woodlands United and Central, allmade an exit from the lucrative and prestig-ious knockout competition.

To add to the thrills and spills, MilanoUnited (reigning champion and with Des-mond Crowie as its mentor) survived a stiffchallenge from Valhalla United to eventual-ly end with a 2-0 victory after the Valhallaside was reduced to ten players in the 73rdminute after Damien Stoffels was sent off.

A two-goal tonic by Shafiek Nazier, whoscored a brace in the 56th and 75th minute,was enough to keep hope alive in the compe-tition, although the u.18 side was bundledout after suffering a 1-0 defeat to Island Rov-ers.

Milano United will now meet Masidlalefrom Nyanga in the quarter finals at the Lin-galethu sports complex on 20 September.

Last year’s champion, Silver Spurs, waseliminated from the competition after fall-ing prey to Masidlale, losing 4-3 on penaltiesafter the match ended 1-1 in regulation time.

Meanwhile, Young Idols of Manenberg setthe scene alight with two first-half goals byShannon Hendricks to beat Junction Rovers2-1 in a topsy turvy showdown.

The Young Idols side, coached by Paul“Gaza” Johnson, will face Langa Wanderers,who beat the 2011 champions Central by 2-0.

The match could be handed to Central

AFC after its management lodged a disputewith referee Wayne Cupido on the groundsthat Wanderers allegedly fielded two ineligi-ble players.

Rygersdal’s demise was met after they hadtheir wings clipped by an inspired Grassy

Park United side, spurred on by former San-tos player Tasleem Paulse. The Grassy Parkoutfit edged out the 2005 champion 2-1.

Tasleem Ceres was the first to find the netshortly after the half-time interval. Howev-er, Rygersdal would level matters later on

through Abdul Damon. But it was not to beas Grassy Park’s Wassiem George securedthe winning goal in the dying embers of thematch.

In some of the day’s other matches, Mor-genster United destroyed Woodlands United5-0 in a Mitchell’s Plain derby with KeeganTromp (2), Taswill Davids (2) and AshwinLotter sharing in the goal feast.

Morgenster United and Grassy Park Unit-ed will cross swords in the quarter finalwhile Strandfontein, who beat Juventusfrom Philippi 3-2, will square off againstTurfhall (who beat Spice for Life 2-0) in theremaining quarter final.

Results.Men:Masidlale 1, Silver Spurs 1 (Masidla-le win 4-3 on penalties); Young Idols 2, Junc-tion Rovers 1; Milano United 2, ValhallaUnited 0; Langa Wanderers 2, Central 0;Strandfontein 3, Juventus (Philippi) 2; Mor-genster United 5, Woodlands United 0;Grassy Park United 2, Rygersdal 1; Turfhall2, Spice For Life 0..Women:Cape Town Roses 2, UWC 0; Mila-no United vs Portia United postponed; Burn-ley 6, CPUT 0; Virgo United 2, Ambassadorsin Sport 1; Spurs Ladies 11, Table View 0;Phoenix Spurs 2, Real Brazilians 1; RV Unit-ed vs Santos Ladies postponed; Ikamva La-dies 2, Northlink 0..

A 13-year-oldmultitalented athlete is thePeople’s PostLet’s Play sport star of themonth for August.

Duran Koevort, who lives in Glencairnand attends Fish Hoek Primary School, ex-cels in rugby, hockey, cricket and crosscountry running.He played for the WP u.13A team at the

u.13 Craven Week in Mpumalanga in July.According to his mother Tracey, who nomi-nated him, he is a leader on and off the field.“He has been a captain for rugby, hockey

and cricket and received certificates toprove his leadership and sportsmanship athis school.“He has also performed well in athletics

and has been awarded the junior and seniorvictor ludorum trophies,” Tracey says.Duran also likes cycling and running.“He has taken part in the junior Cape

Town Cycle Tour (previously known as theArgus) many times and this year he partici-pated in the main tour. He also takes partin fun runs like Blisters for Bread. This yearhe took part in theDiscoveryTriathlonCapeTownwith his school teammates,” she says.As an u.12 player last year, Duran had the

opportunity to play first team cricket and hewas vice-captain.“He also played first team hockey. He re-

ceived a certificate for best athlete and asports merit award for cross country,” Tra-cey says.

Favourite sportOut of all these sports, Duran says rugby

is his favourite. “I love it because I play itwell and I can read the game. I want to bea professional rugby player one day,” hesays. By the time he is in matric he would

love to play for the SA schools team afterwinning the u.18 Craven Week with WP.With the RugbyWorld Cup starting in ten

days, Duran has mixed feelings about theperformance of the Bokke.“I think there is a good chance that they

will win the World Cup, but also a goodchance they might not because of their re-cent performances.”Duran trains four timesaweek. “I practise

cricket and athletics in summer and hockeyand rugby in winter.”V If you want to nominate a sport star between theages of 13 and 18, email [email protected] de-tailing his or her achievements.
