Over a decade since the historic PeninsulaMaternity Hospital was closed, the site willnow house a new community healthcarecentre as District Six residents return totheir former home.The Peninsula Maternity Hospital served

thousands of District Six residents beforethe forced removals.The hospital was merged with Mowbray

Maternity Hospital in 1992, leaving thebuilding standing unused.The site, inCaledonStreet, hasbeen stand-

ing open after being used to house studentsand as a wardrobe storeroom for Artscape.Two years ago, themajority of District Six

claimants voted to have theunusedPeninsu-la Maternity Hospital demolished during apublic participation process.

The demolitionwas suggested as plannersreportedly said the renovation would becostly, and the building is not suited to pro-viding high-quality care.This led to the partial demolition of the

building last year, says Al-Ameen Kafaar,head of communication for the provincialDepartment of Transport and Public Works.The demolition was approved by Western

Cape Heritage, as well as the Department ofHealth, land claimants and the District SixRedevelopment Trust, Kafaar confirms.Sections of the old hospital have already

been demolished, although some buildingsare still standing, says District Six Redevel-opment Trust chairperson Anwah Nagia.However, the process seems to have

stalled.Nagia is unsure what the future of the old

hospital site is, but Kafaar says the plan isto “erect a new District Six Community

Health Centre early next year”.The development of a new R65m wellness

centre was announced by Premier HelenZille earlier this year at a key handing-overceremony in the former District Six.

The healthcare centre will cater to pa-tients from Salt River, Woodstock, Vrede-hoek, Zonnebloem and the CBD, as well asresidentsmoving back to the formerDistrictSix.Michael Lawrence, who was born at the

Peninsula Maternity Hospital and lived inDistrict Six, says there is a need for a qualityhealthcare facility closer to the city centre.“There is a great need for more facilities,

especiallywithpeoplemovingback to thear-ea as part of the land restitution process.Hospitals need to be close to home, and thereis space around the old hospital site thatcould be developed,” he says.There is no place for sentimentality, Law-

rence insists. “One cannot afford to be senti-mental. New technologies are needed forquality healthcare, and the old hospitalbuilding should not be restored at the ex-pense of those technologies,” he says.However, Nagia has been left baffled by

the announcement of a new hospital.“There is a development framework for

the area that governs thebuilding of schools,shops, offices and hospitals or clinics. Thisframework is still not complete. We weresurprised by the announcement, and thinkit might have been a bit premature. The ex-act location has not been decided andwe arestill in discussion over the site and size ofthe hospital,” he says.The spatial planning process is due to con-

tinue in November, Nagia adds.Kafaar says the date of construction is still

to be finalised. “Wedonot have an exact dateyet but it will be in the first quarter of 2014.”

“Prisons don’t reform people.”This is the assessment of Richard Griggs,

a monitoring and evaluation specialist incriminal justice.

Former inmates and organisations agree,claiming the cells are where hardened crimi-nals are bred.

The National Institute for Crime Preven-tion and the Reintegration of Offenders(Nicro) has been championing a five-yearproject for non-custodial sentencing, whichinvolves an alternative to imprisonment.

And they believe their solution works.The current system doesn’t ask why you

committed the crime, Griggs argues.“You end up in jail when all you need are

anger management classes. This programmeworks. People think we’re waiting for solu-tions, but we already have one. This pro-gramme analyses the problem and solves it.”

Since the project’s launch, 6 000 prisonershave been removed from the system throughnon-custodial sentencing.

Nicro project manager Regan Jules-Mac-quet says the organisation renders this serv-ice by working closely with judicial officerssuch as magistrates.

“Instead of being sent to prison, lower-riskoffenders are sentenced to a community-based sentence,” she explains.

Only lower-risk offenders are suitable forthe sentencing. The criminal is assessed andrecommended to be part of the programme.

Battle behind barsJohn Bower spent three years behind bars

for assault after being involved in a bar brawlin 1998.

He was only 18.“I walked into jail a stupid teenager and

came out a dangerous man,” he recalls.“In the cells, I mixed with rapists and mur-

derers, who preyed on laaities like me who

thought they were cool but where just kidstrying to act grown up.”

Every day behind bars is a battle to stayalive, Bower continues.

“I was in jail for three weeks when Ikilled a man who tried to rape me. My lifechanged that day. I wasn’t a killer, but Ihad someone’s blood on my hands. I wasa naughty child who needed to be disci-plined, but instead I was fighting for mylife surrounded by people who thoughtnothing of snapping your neck for fun.”

When he was released in 2001, he was al-ready a member of the 26s and practisedwhat he learnt in the cells on the streets.

“It was the only life I had known for threeyears. I was never remotely interested ingangs but behind bars, it’s who you knowthat keeps you alive.”

After being stabbed twice and nearlykilled in a drive-by shooting, Bowersturned his life around.

“I became involved in church activitiesand working with the youth. I am an exam-ple of what prison life does to you. Andwhile I know I had to pay for my crimes,going to jail was the worst thing that everhappened to me,” he maintains.

“Behind bars, you don’t learn how to livea crime-free life. You learn how to do evenworse and not get caught.”

Changing behaviourJules-Macquet says not only are offend-

ers kept out of prison where they are ex-posed to hardened criminals, but they alsotake part in behavioural courses.

“Prison is not necessary for all offend-ers. Many offenders can serve their sen-tence in the community, while having ac-cess to much-needed behaviour changeservices. Prison is an environment not es-pecially conducive to rehabilitation andreintegration of offenders,” she argues.

“We believe prison should be reservedfor higher-risk offenders and that lower-risk offenders can be dealt with via non-custodial sentencing.”

The organisation’s programme looks atwhat caused the offender to commit thecrime in the first place and works to alterit. “Unless the criminal thinking patternsand behaviours are changed, there will al-ways be the likelihood of recidivism. If weare to fight crime in a meaningful way, wecannot simply punish people without ad-dressing their behaviours and thinking pat-terns.”

Griggs says it’s only a matter of having theprogramme implemented nationwide.

After evaluating the programme, he in-sists the numbers speak for themselves.

“Around 50% of the normal prison popula-tion will re-offend. But with Nicro’s non-cus-todial sentencing, only 2% re-offend.”

The cost of removing prisoners from thesystem should be incentive alone to imple-ment the programme at every court in thecountry, he adds.

In addition, the offender can still supporttheir family during their sentence, whichhelps alleviate poverty.

Valuation objec-tions will be dealtwith more efficient-ly after the City ofCape Town upgrad-ed the software usedfor the general valu-ation objectionprocess.

Council’s Valua-tion Department isworking towards fi-nalising most theobjections by theend of December. Ithas already proc-essed more thanhalf of the 33 000 ob-jections receivedsince 1 July.

Residents are stillrequired to makeproperty rates pay-ments until their ob-jection is finalised.

When an objec-tion to a valuation isreceived, the ratesaccount will beflagged to indicatethat an objection isin progress. Thiswill temporarilystop any debt man-agement action.

Once finalised,the objector will besent an official no-tice of the decisionby the MunicipalValuer. Where anobjection is not up-held, the owner canappeal to the Valua-tion Appeal Board.

The board will sitas soon as there aresufficient appeals.

Woodstock’s biggest tourist draw card, theOld Biscuit Mill, has police worried.A crime prevention operation was held

along Albert Road in front of the busy mar-ket on Saturday, as well as in Victoria andLower Main roads, says Woodstock policespokesperson Sergeant Hilton Malila.But the Woodstock Community Policing

Forum feels police resources should not beused for protecting business interests.Muggings and theft out of motor vehicles

have rocketed in the vicinity of the smallbusiness hub.Rashaad Martin, spokesperson for the

Woodstock Community Outreach Forum,says the organisation has noted an increasein criminal activity.“We hope the police operation will raise

awareness about crime in the area, and theincrease visibility will reduce it,” he says.He is glad police are taking a serious

stance regarding the shopping hub, but cau-tions them not to neglect the rest of Wood-stock.“We are happy they’re there as long as the

vehicles are available to respond to other ar-

eas as well. Police must continue to respondto the whole community, as they are notthere to secure private property,” he says.Malila responds that police will not be sta-

tioned at the market permanently.He continues that the patrols have yielded

results.“The crime situation around the mill

droppeddrastically through thehighvisibil-ity patrols. The Biscuit Mill is a very busyplace on a Saturday, and all the cars tend tobe parked in the vicinity. In order to makesure that everybody and their belongingsare safe,we constantly dopatrols in the area.Our main objective is to reduce the volumeof property-related crimes, including theftout of motor vehicles,” he says.While on patrol, police also fine illegal car

guards and assist Law Enforcement officerswith traffic bylaw enforcement, he adds.But Woodstock Community Policing Fo-

rum chairpersonHoward Smith feels the pa-trols are a burden to police resources.“More Law Enforcement officers need to

be deployed, as this is not crime-related. Thepolice should not be diverted from crime-fighting activities,” he says.At the time of going print, the City of Cape

Town failed to respond to questions about

the shortage of traffic bylaw enforcement.The lack of parking around the market

has residents fed up, Smith says, which inturnmakes them turn a blind eye to crime.“Residents are less likely to look after a

business’ interests if they are being incon-venienced. I sympathise with those whoare not able to find parking for severalblocks owing to the market’s customers,”he says.Smith suggests that the Old Biscuit Mill

provide additional parking, which wouldnot only ease the congestion on residentialstreets, but also allow for better security.At the time of going to print, Indigo Prop-

erties, the owners of the Old Biscuit Mill,had failed to respond to queries.

SStrtreeteet kidskids‘c‘coiningoining it’it’As peak tourist season looms, beggars areexpected to make more money.Research done by the City of Cape Town’s

social development department shows streetchildren are getting as much as R1 600 a dayfrom begging.This, they say,makes it harder for welfare

groups to get them off the streets and reinte-grated into society. The research shows that60% of the people living on Cape Town’sstreets are there by choice. Many had mi-grated from other parts of the province.Is sharing really caring?Here’swhat read-

ers had to say.

CERIZE KCERIZE KOETSOETS says she would rather hand overfood than money. “I don’t know what they willdo with the money I give to them. They need aproper shelter where food is provided.”

THOMAS STHOMAS SAAIMANAAIMAN encourages giving responsi-bly. “I’m one of the people who gives them money,knowing that they are not going to use it wisely.Giving them food is the best way.”

DENISEDENISE FILANDERFILANDER finds it hard to believe thatstreet children are making enough money by beg-ging. “Not everyone gives money. Death can comeat any time (and) they need to be in a shelter.”

ALFREDALFRED NGNGWENYAWENYA believes in charity. “Not every-one is qualified in this country. Some make a livingon street. My boss and I always make time to givethem food. If I have money, I give it to them.”

ZZAINABAINAB KITASKITAS says while it’s dangerous to bravethe streets, nothing can be done to change theirreality. “They’re making enough money. If we givethem food only, it doesn’t mean they will stop.”

CCAREL VAREL VANAN DER SDER SCHYFFCHYFF says the State shouldplay a bigger role. “It doesn’t help to give moneybecause they use it for the wrong things. Why isgovernment not building more shelters?”

AMBROAMBROSESE NAKILENAKILE says he can only afford to handover something to eat. “We all need money. I canshare food but not cash. If I have any leftover foodI will give them, but I will never give them money.”

Illegal metered taxi drivers’ days are num-bered and can expect a crackdown on unau-thorised operations.

This comes as the Western Cape MeteredTaxi Council is one step closer to being for-malised after interim leadership was recent-ly elected.

Illegal operators are one of the biggestchallenges faced by the industry, and theCity of Cape Town will look to cut down onthe number of drivers operating without li-cences, says Siphesihle Dube, the spokesper-son for provincial minister of transport andpublic works Robin Carlisle.

“Illegal operations result directly in over-trading within an industry, which invaria-bly heightens tension. Illegal operators alsodo not hold themselves to the vehicle stand-ards that legal operators do, which will un-doubtedly threaten the safety of their pas-sengers as the vehicles are often not road-worthy. As is the case with minibus taxis,such a situation invariably causes tensionthat erupt in violent confrontations. We can-not allow this to happen here,” he says.

Taxi operators need to have a licencegranted by the City of Cape Town, Dube ex-plains.

Fiona Herman, the public relations officerforMarineCabs, says the company fully sup-

ports the idea of a sedan meter taxi council.“We would like to see the taxi council em-

power the industry which, in the past, wasnever really recognised by local governmentdue to inadequate, inexperienced members.There are many issues, though the main pri-ority should be the illegal operators floodingthe market and tarnishing our reputation,”she says.

The council will also look to create uni-form standards for vehicles, and Hermanhopes itwill tackle the issue of parkingareasin the city.

“We would also like the council to commu-nicate with the operating license boardabout ranking space in the CBD and sur-rounding areas due to the fact that there arefar more operating licenses than rankingspace,” she says.

An oversight body will go a long way tomaking taxis safer, Herman maintains.

“There will be a definite impact on all op-erators to clean up their act and abide by thecode of conduct set by the road transporta-tion board. It will also help to beef up onoverall presentation, such as drivers’ dress

code and vehicle condi-tions,” she says.

However, the councilwill have no enforce-ment powers, Dubesays, and enforcementwill still fall to the Cityof Cape Town’s Law En-forcement officers.

This aspect worriesAndrew Nel, a frequentmetered taxi commuter.

“How will they pre-vent illegal operators ifthey are not the ones en-forcing the rules? It be-comes easy for the coun-cil to become discon-nected from lawenforcement,” he says.

However, Nel does believe the council isneeded.

“The taxi owners need to get together to

standardise rates for routes, co-ordinatehow many taxis operate where and imple-ment some standardised disciplinary ac-tion,” he says.

The council will be made up of separatechambers for individual and fleet owners,and will elect a governing body of 25 mem-bers, as well as an executive of nine mem-bers with at least three from each chamber,Dube adds.

discussion by government and although nobill has been drafted, organisations advocat-ing children’s rights, experts and the nation-al social development department haveraised contrasting views.

And while stakeholders decide whetherthis discussion document should be takenforward as a draft bill and actioned into law,parents, religious groups and organisationsare at opposite sides of the spectrum.

Is the occasional slap on the bottom a formof abuse?

Parental rights lostChildren need a hiding to give them a

warning because that’s how they become

obedient, father Ebrahim Davids argues.Another parent agrees, insisting govern-

ment can’t take away parental rights to dis-cipline their children.

“Times have changed so much and disci-pline has left our society, because parentscan no longer reprimand their neighbours’children,” she says.

A first-time mother says she always knewshe’d have to discipline her children with ahiding.

“Parents should not give up their rights;what will happen when these children growolder and are disrespectful? Schools alreadyhave no discipline. We can’t afford to losediscipline in our homes, too,” she fumes.

Strengthening tiesThe Family Policy Institute too opposes

the notion.CEO Errol Naidoo says government does

not have the right to tell parents how to raisetheir children.

“There’s a big difference between abuseand child discipline,” he says. “Spanking achild will not harm them; it’s a correctivemeasure, while hitting to abuse is not disci-pline. Family is the most important unit insociety and we need to strengthen it. At themoment we have an ill-disciplined govern-ment telling families how to raise children.No government has the right to do that.”

Sheikh Riad Fataar agrees, saying Islamallows parents to discipline children with alight beating. “If you hit your child in a man-

ner which breaks bones and causes blood toflow, then it’s abuse. The character and mor-als of society is going down because of a lackof discipline,” he says.

ConsequencesBut Patric Solomons, director of chil-

dren’s rights organisation Molo Songololo,says corporal punishment should be abol-ished because parents have carte blancheand often exercise forms of discipline whichconstitutes physical and emotional abuse.

“Throwing objects at children is a form ofphysical abuse. Forcing them to stand indark corners is a cruel form of emotionalpunishment; we need to look at ways of re-ducing it,” he says.

“We’ve managed to abolish abuse betweenadults. Why can’t we do the same for chil-dren? We need a combination of support forchildren and parents who need to learn tocope. Parents often say: ‘I got beaten andlook at how I turned out?’ Discipline does notinstill values, good behaviour, understand-ing and consequences.”

Parents need to set positive values and aframework for children, because teenagersstart acting violent when they see their par-ents failing to practice what they preach,Solomons continues.

“Parents have a false sense of obedienceand try to silence children by using acts ofviolence, which is a quick fix and doesn’tguarantee the child won’t do it again.

“The solution is for children to learn re-

spect through observation and to extend therecourse from women to children. Theyshould also be able to lay a complaint whicha court should investigate to ensure properjustice is served,” he says.

Different strokesThe Parent Centre director Venecia Bar-

ries says her organisation does not agreewith physical punishment.

Children need discipline, love and bound-aries, she argues.

“Parents need to institute pro-activemeasures when disciplining their children,such as moving things which could breakout of a toddler’s way and creating conse-quences like taking away older children’scellphones. Different corrective measureswork for different children,” she says.

Barries says many children are raisedwithout their parents inflicting pain.

“No parent is calm when they’re about tohit their child and that is why Child Line isinundated with calls. Parents are relying onphysical punishment because it’s their natu-ral instinct.”

She says children will test the limits andparents need to set boundaries. “We needto rewrite the already violent history inSouth Africa by developing a new history.This can be done by training parents to beassertive and by understanding children.”V Do you spank your child as a form of discipline?

Pupils attending school in lower- income ar-eas may soon receive a free education.

More than 200 impoverished schoolsacross the province now have the chance tobecome a no-fee school from next year.

The move is expected to significantly alle-viate the funding challenges of facilitiesserving poorer communities and will re-duce the burden of trying to obtain and col-lect school fees.

Every year, thousands of parents at fee-paying public schools either fail to pay theirschool fees or have to apply for fee exemp-tion, provincial education minister DonaldGrant explains. “The reality is we are liv-ing in tough economic times. Many parentssimply cannot afford to pay fees. This ulti-mately affects some schools’ income andplaces a burden on the management.”

All public schools are categorised intofive groups, called quintiles, largely for allo-cating financial resources. Quintile one isthe poorest, while quintile five is the leastpoor. These rankings are determined na-tionally according to the poverty of the com-munity around the school as well as certaininfrastructural factors.

Many schools believe they have beenranked inappropriately and have asked fortheir quintile status to be changed.

Education minister Angie Motshekgalast month announced plans to do awaywith the quintiles in favour of a two-catego-ry system.

Until the changes to the current quintilesystem become a reality, schools that cur-rently charge annual school fees of R400 orless may apply to become no-fee schools.

Schools have to apply in writing for this

status. The department will consider offer-ing more schools this opportunity in future,and funding top-ups will be offered to select-ed quintile four and five schools that havenot yet been selected.

Although Kenmere Primary does notqualify for the free schooling, principal An-dre Johannessen says many of the schoolsin the area need additional funding. Theschool’s fees are R1 300, however, Johannes-sen estimates 30% of parents are not ableto pay. “Many of the families do not havea high income, and some of the children livein squatter camps,”he says.

Factreton parent Colleen Jacobs agreesschools need all the help possible. “Many ofthe families in the area are on grants. Par-ents are unemployed, so there are a lot offamilies applying to be exempt from payingfees. This means the school doesn’t getenough funds.”

Fundraising efforts are also hampered bythe number of parents who are unemployedand can’t afford donations, she maintains.

This lack of funding has a direct impacton her children’s education.

“The schools are not able to pay for addi-tional teachers in governing body posts, sothe classes are sometimes as big as 46 pu-pils. It becomes difficult for the children tolearn and the teachers to instill discipline.”Cecil Road Primary principal Shahid Mat-thews is disappointed his Salt River schooldoes not qualify. “Our school fees are R800,and although we fall in quintile five, around45% of parents are not able to pay schoolfees. It would have been a step in the rightdirection if they had considered us as well.”

However, he remains hopeful.“It will be rolled out over a period of time

and hopefully will be expanded to includeus,” he says.

EDUCATION: POOR PUPILS TO GET FREE SCHOOLING

Freezing fees

PEOPLE'S POST | WOODSTOCK | MAITLANDThursday, 17 October 20138 LETTERS

WRITE TO US |email | fax | post

Today is the International Day for the Eradication ofPoverty.The day has been observed annually since 1993 by

the United Nations General Assembly.And as these things go, there is always a theme. This

year it isWorking together towards a world without dis-crimination: Building on the experience and knowledgeof people in extreme poverty.One wonders how this mouthful will, in fact, eradi-

cate poverty, feed thehungry, secure jobs for theunem-ployed, getmedicine to the sick anddying, and success-fully get children through education systems.There is a worldwide need to eliminate poverty alto-

gether and address its evil twin: unemployment.There is a cruelty to the cycle that ensures there will

always be poor people. It is sad that they are not justpoor in spirit, but also in hope.UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon says: “If we are

to realise the future we want for all, we must hear andheed the calls of the marginalised… Together, we canbuild a sustainable world of prosperity and peace, jus-tice and equity – a life of dignity for all.”Noble sentiments.It could even work, if all people with the collective

will would make it so.The day is set aside to “promote awareness of the

need to eradicate poverty and destitution in all coun-tries”.Perhaps now, 20 years later, all nations will work to-

gether in the ethos of the theme to step up and be com-mitted to fighting poverty.A start is to redress perceptions of Africa as a beg-

ging bowl, Asia as a cheap form of labour fit for exploi-tation or South America as the route of drug trade.There are exceptions, of course.One small step formankindwould be to see each oth-

er as humans, equal in every way.Perhaps then some markets will finally “emerge”.

Drunk drivers: time to actAbout 2000 years ago, the Bible in Ephesianswarned: “Do not get drunk as it leads to de-bauchery.”That 52% of South Africans who die in

traffic accidents had alcohol in their bloodis bad news.Since 70% of all assaults are alcohol-relat-

ed it also suggests little has changed in twomillennia.The consistent violence also suggests that

our reality requires drastic action if we areto anticipate change.Drivers caught drunk regularly receive

suspended sentences and those who kill peo-ple ultimately walk free.The reason for this entire acceptance is

the reality that drunkenness is part of SouthAfrican culture.Since we live in a constitutional democra-

cy, it is difficult to compel everyone to listento logic even in their own interest.What is required is to send a strong mes-

sage to those who drive intoxicated.Intoxicated drivers should be identified as

quickly as possible at the accident scene.Paramedics and hospital staff should treat

accident victims and not the intoxicateddriver as a priority.The provincial health department should

through ethical interpretation prioritisetheir spending.This infers fewer resources to heal crimi-

nals who shoot each other regularly andmore resources for taxpayers who requiredialyses.The department could increase the sala-

ries of nurses by spending less on surgeryto rehabilitate drunk drivers.Since volumes have been written on the

threat of intoxicants, the time for debate isover.Those unwilling to change their behav-

iour must bear the costs.Since the justice system seems deter-

mined to protect drunk drivers the least wecan do is not to waste limited public medicalresources on them.Capetonians cannot talk about a world

class city if we cannot protect ourselves ona public road.YAGYAH ADAMSCape Muslim Congress

Think before you make your markIn 2014 we (will be) summoned to the votingstations to make our crosses and, hopefully,vote into power the right political partywithrighteous politicians.Since our country’s democracy a lot of po-

litical policies and promises have passed un-der society’s aspirational bridges.There were some benefits for the man in

the street, but that seems to be clouded bythe plague of corruption, unemployment,poverty and (lack of) service delivery.Wevotershave tobe realistic (and) critical

in our choice.The parties we vote in have to take us on

board holistically and as fellow passengersand partners on board the gravy train.We must make our voices and conditions

heard so that political promises and con-tracts are displayed on the placards and atthe voting rallies.These promises and contracts must be so

binding that whomever (gets) our vote mustknow it is a binding contract with tight legaltimeframes for implementation.

Voting is no more a new phase for us.Wehavehad toomanypolitical experienc-

es that we are wide awake as to what we de-serve (and to) our political rights.Politicianshave to bevery careful, correct

and constitutional in what their legallybinding promises entail.In the past the voterwas somewhat forgiv-

ing of politicians, but with recession, pover-ty, unemployment, excessive cost of living,crime, blatant corruption, unaccountability(and) service delivery it could become(much) more violent, vocal and physical.We deserve the best for what is constitu-

tionally willed for each citizen, irrespectiveof their status in our society.Each voter (should) be very sure where to

put that cross (to) dictate who will lead reli-giously, politically, morally and financiallycorrectly.Aquote byGeorgeWill says: “Voters don’t

decide issues. They decide who will decideissues.”KEITH BLAKE

Cost of tourismI do appreciate the attention given to thehigh cost of local tourism as featured in Peo-ple’s Post (“Cost of SANParks’ offer”, 17 Sep-tember).It is not only SANParks which insist on

high entrance fees, but also the Iziko Muse-ums.The great majority of South Africans will

not be able to afford the R30 adult fee re-quired. Very small children enter free.Tourism should seriously rethink the

pricing scale which allows all South Afri-cans to be charged one fee and (tourists) tobe charged at a much higher rate.YVONNE BULGENMelody Kleinsmith, communications coordi-nator for Iziko Museums of South Africa, re-sponds: Iziko is the custodian of our coun-try’s heritage andoperates 11nationalmuse-ums, the Planetarium, the Social HistoryCentre and three collection-specific librar-ies in Cape Town.Iziko is a public entity and an NPO, and

generates about 27% of its own funding. Op-erating museums and generating innova-tive exhibitions and public programmes iscostly. All proceeds derived from admissionfees, sponsorships, fundraising and partner-ships are ploughed back into enhancing visi-tor experiences. Steady revenue streamsfrom sponsors, private donors and fundersare dwindling. Despite these challengesIziko has consistently brought regular pro-grammes to its visitors. As part of the Herit-ageWeek celebrations, Iziko hosted the Her-itage Day, in_Herit festival and providedfree entrance to all its museums.While some museums abroad have been

reducing staff, selling collections and reduc-ing free access because they are unable tocopewith funding cuts, Iziko hasn’t compro-mised on visitor experiences and pro-grammes. These major factors forced the or-ganisation to revise its admission fee struc-ture for the first time since 2010.Iziko provides several opportunities for

equitable and affordable access. These in-clude discounted holiday admission, FreeFridays and free entry on certain commemo-rative days. Iziko also makes provision forschool groups and operates the Iziko MobileMuseum, an educational outreach projectdesigned to take educational museum re-sources to rural and urban communitiesthat are unable to visit the Iziko Museums.

GETREADYFORNEWROUTES


Looking both ways before crossing a busyChester Road is no help.

Residents are calling for more pedestriancrossings to make the street safer, especiallyat the busy intersection of Perth and Chesterroads in Walmer Estate.

Chester Road receives significant foottraffic, says Walmer Estate Community Res-idents’ Forum chairperson, Moosa Sydow.

He says many pupils from the nearbyWalmer Estate Primary use the route, aswell as worshippers at the Azzawia MasjidMosque in Perth Road.

In addition, the intersection of Chesterand Perth road has only a stop street, hesays, and no pedestrian crossing.

Lance Reuter, a teacher at Walmer EstatePrimary, says there are many pedestriancrossings near the school, but only a blockaway, at the Chester and Perth roads inter-section, crossing becomes more dangerous.

“It’s a big concern. Some pupils walk downthe road to their homes or to catch their liftshome. There is a lot of traffic and taxis wait-ing to pick up pupils. Teachers can’t alwaysbe there to keep an eye on the pupils,” hesays.

There are traffic officials one block down

at the intersection of Searle Street, ChesterRoad and Hill Road, says Mayoral Commit-tee member for Transport Brett Herron.

“The Traffic Services Road Safety andEducational Training section has also visit-ed schools in the area to educate learnersabout pedestrian safety. It is important forlearners to know they need to look left, lookright, and left again before crossing anyroad,” he says.

“Pedestrians are the most vulnerableroad users and it is imperative to teach ourchildren that they must exercise every cau-tion when crossing the road. They shouldonly cross at points where there is a zebracrossing and/or traffic signals.”

Reuter would like to see traffic officialsor a scholar patrol put in place to help pu-pils cross the intersection.

However, Sydow says the best solutionwould be to install a pedestrian crossingand traffic calming measures.

While pedestrian crossings are providedon both Searle Street and Chester Road andare controlled by two part-time traffic at-

tendants during school hours,the intersection of Chester Roadand Perth Road is controlled bya four-way stop, Herron says.

“If adhered to by drivers, thisoffers protection to crossing pe-destrians. However, the installa-tion of a crossing similar to thaton Chester Road at Searle Streetwill certainly be considered,” hesays.

However, there are no plansfor further traffic calming meas-ures, Herron says.

“The City of Cape Town’stransport department receivesnumerous applications everymonth requesting traffic calm-ing measures in particular areas

and these requests are subject to a decision-making process which is governed by the

City’s Traffic Calming Policy. The policypromotes the use of traffic calming meas-ures where the threat to safety on residentialstreets is unacceptably high. There are vari-ous traffic calming measures available andthe City does its best to minimise risk by us-ing measures which are technically appro-priate for a particular area,” he says.

Surfing development and transforma-tion is set to receive a boost when thesixth annual BOS Earthwave Beach

Festival takes place this weekend.The festival will feature several water-

sport competitions, lifestyle events and en-tertainment. People’s Post is the print me-dia sponsor of the event.

However, the most important event couldbe the Muizenberg Outreach Surfing Chal-lenge, which will see four different pro-grammes battle it out in the waves at Mui-zenberg Beach.

Event organiser Paul Botha says hehopes the event will offer the programmesa helping hand.

“We want to involve the kids in the festi-val. As the programmes are doing a greatjob, we want to give them something for theguys to strive towards,” Botha says.

“This is part and parcel of what we wantat the festival; we want to make it an inclu-sive festival. We have formalised it so thatthe organisations have their own event andthey can win prizes.”

The organisations which will participatein the Challenge are Isiqalo, the Surf ShackOutreach Programme, the MuizenbergBeach Club and Dreams to Reality.

All four organisations aim to assistyouths from disadvantaged communitiesthrough surfing. The tournament will fea-ture two teams from each organisationcompeting in two heats of four teams each.Four teams will then advance to two hour-long semi-finals and the competition willclimax in a hour-long final. The event issponsored and supported by Surfing SouthAfrica (SSA).

SSA general manager Robin de Kock saysthe event fits in with SSA’s goal of trans-forming the sport. “Those organisations in-volved in the Challenge are all doing a goodjob, trying to introduce young surfers fromdisadvantaged backgrounds into thesport,” De Kock says.

“Our job is to support outreach organisa-tions involved in the sport.”

De Kock adds transforming the sport isone of organisation’s key goals.

“Its always been a focus; we have been in-volved with those programmes for sometime now. It’s something that we see as ben-efiting surfing. We want to transform thesport and introduce children from margin-alised and disadvantaged backgrounds.”

Earthwave will also see several schoolteams head to Muizenberg for the WesternCape Inter-schools Surfing Tournament.

The 12 participating schools will go head-to-head in hopes of bagging some of theR10 000 in prizes.

“This year we have invited schools fromBoland to join us as well,” Botha says.

Each team will have five members.The festival will also feature skateboard-

ing and stand-up paddling competitionsand an attempt to break the Guiness WorldRecord for the most surfers riding a singlewave.

An attempt to break the record for thelongest game of touch rugby was also set totake place, but has now been cancelled.However, the People’s Post Touch RugbyTournament will still take place.

The BOS Earthwave Beach Festival willtake place at Muizenberg Beach from 08:00on Saturday 19 to 14:00 on Sunday 20 Octo-ber.V Contact Kahuna Promotions on (021) 783 4965 [email protected] for further information.

Callies zoom inon promotionLIAM MOSES

@LiamCPT

Jordan Callies has shifted focus on secur-ing promotion after winning the Coca-Cola Cup on Saturday.

Callies qualified for the Safa SAB Region-al League promotional play-offs after win-ning the Rygate Local Football Association(LFA) Super League earlier this year.

Coach Anthony Barnes is confident hisside canmake it into the fourth tier of SouthAfrican football after the Coke Cup victory.

“We are already there; that’s how confi-dent I am,” he says.

“We have already beaten Safa Second Di-vision and SAB League teams in the CokeCup this year.”

Callies knocked out several semi-profes-sional sides on their way to the final, in-cluding the Salt River Blackpool and Mi-lano United Second Division teams.

Callies were also losing finalists in theRygate LFA Knockout Tournament thisyear. Barnes says the team is one step awayfrom making it a perfect season. “Weachieved our objectives. I said we wouldwin the league and the Coke Cup, and thenext one is the SAB League play-offs,” hesays.

Barnes may be confident, but his playerswill need to improve in several areas if theyare to continue their climb up the profes-sional football ladder.

Callies started the Coke Cup final withverve and intensity and raced to a 3-0 leadwithin 30 minutes.

Reagon Brander stole the lead after justtwo minutes, Shafiek Mally doubled thescore just five minutes later and KashiefAlba made it 3-0 in the 25th minute.

But instead of knocking the wind out ofSporting United, the third goal caused Cal-lies to slack off and lose concentration.

Ebrahim Davids pulled a goal back forSporting late in the second half and strucktwice more in the 30th and 35th minutes tolevel the scores.

The equaliser forced Callies to wake up,as they reclaimed the lead through the bootof Showen Sturein in the dying minutes ofthe game.

Barnes was happy with the performancedespite the poor defensive display.

“At the end of the day it was about whowanted it more and we were hungrier. Theguys performed well,” he says.

“The plan was to secure the game in thefirst 15 minutes through all-out attack, butwe are not used to playing on a field thisheavy. They are used to playing on a hardsurface, so they had a lot of cramps.”

Jordan Callies will face off against theleague winners from the other LFA’s affili-ated to Safa Cape Town in the promotionplay-offs.

The date of the play-offs have not beenconfirmed.
