Besides making the public space more equitable, the free WiFi pro- vides a bridge between South Afri- ca’s extreme digital divide, Camer- on believes. “Current estimates find two in three South Africans are unable to afford internet access, and in the Western Cape it was found that some households spend more than 25% of their income on ICT related costs (data and airtime) as they look for economic opportunities online.” The business model behind the bench relies on the sale of market research, Cameron explains. These funds are used to pay for the costs associated with the bench – the creation of it, the set-up and maintenance as well as the band- width costs. The bench currently in Wale Street was installed in partnership with Wesgro, the investment and trade promotion agency for the Western Cape, and the survey questions posed to users are most- ly about local and international tourist experiences, to establish a feedback loop to better inform Cape Town Partnership projects, such as City Walk Saturdays, and to pass on to relevant stakeholders. “Besides providing market re- search, advertising is also an ave- nue for funding. When talking about funding market research, it’s important to also state that any data collected is done so in line with the Public Information Act – so at no point is there an abuse of the confidence placed in us as hold- ers of this information.” The Pier Place bench will work on a similar model, with a corpo- rate sponsor showing interest in contributing towards the public activation of the square.

    O

    ver 800 people made use of

    the Isabelo smart bench in-

    stalled on the corner of Wale

    and Adderley streets in just one

    month.

    Andnow theCapeTownPartner-

    ship plans to roll out another

    bench to Pier Place in the next few

    weeks.

    The bench has an access point

    that receives the Internet signal

    from a nearby building and broad-

    casts it as WiFi through the access

    point attached to the mast of the

    bench, explains the partnerships

    Alan Cameron.

    The solar panels above the top

    sail fuel the batteries that power

    the electronic equipment includ-

    ing the USB charging points in the

    central pillar, he says.

    In April, only a month after the

    bench was installed, 800 people

    made use of it, says Cameron.

    It transforms a place between

    destinations to a destination in

    and of itself by offering the servi-

    ces of free WiFi and mobile device

    charging points. Within the first

    sixweeks of placement the users of

    the bench burnt through 100 gigs

    of bandwidth thats a lot of band-

    width to consume via the screen of

    a phone!

    Users have been noted at the

    bench at all times of the day, and

    even in the rain, says Cameron.

    Clustering people of all walks of

    life to the area around the bench

    means the area becomes a safer

    space.

    It also becomes a more welcom-

    ing space, with greater opportuni-

    ty for incidental conversations

    with strangers the type of conver-

    sations that lead one to understand

    that strangers are often friendly

    people, quite willing to lend you

    their USB connection to charge

    your phone.

    This camaraderie builds the

    community spirit of the place, and

    making the local a prouder South

    African, andhelping tourists toun-

    derstand why locals love living

    here, he says.

    Besides making the public space

    more equitable, the free WiFi pro-

    vides a bridge between South Afri-

    cas extreme digital divide, Camer-

    on believes.

    Current estimates find two in

    three South Africans are unable to

    afford internet access, and in the

    Western Cape it was found that

    some households spend more than

    25% of their income on ICT related

    costs (data and airtime) as they

    look for economic opportunities

    online.

    The business model behind the

    bench relies on the sale of market

    research, Cameron explains.

    These funds are used to pay for the

    costs associated with the bench

    the creation of it, the set-up and

    maintenance as well as the band-

    width costs.

    The bench currently in Wale

    Street was installed in partnership

    with Wesgro, the investment and

    trade promotion agency for the

    Western Cape, and the survey

    questions posed to users are most-

    ly about local and international

    tourist experiences, to establish a

    feedback loop to better inform

    Cape Town Partnership projects,

    such as City Walk Saturdays, and

    to pass on to relevant stakeholders.

    Besides providing market re-

    search, advertising is also an ave-

    nue for funding. When talking

    about funding market research,

    its important to also state that any

    data collected is done so in line

    with the Public Information Act

    so at no point is there an abuse of

    the confidence placed in us as hold-

    ers of this information.

    The Pier Place bench will work

    on a similar model, with a corpo-

    rate sponsor showing interest in

    contributing towards the public

    activation of the square.

    LEGENDS WINNER: Peoples Post journalist Samantha Lee (23) was named Local

    Newspapers Journalist of the Year for 2016 on Friday 3 June at the Media24 Legends

    Awards. Legends is a national competition awarding excellence in the Media24 news

    division. Lee joined the Peoples Post team in 2014 and writes for the Mitchells Plain

    edition. Here she is pictured with Peoples Post editor Cecilia Hume. Lee says: It is not

    without the contributions of the community that I have achieved this success. It is a

    great honour to tell the stories of everyday heroes who strive to rise above the stigma

    of perceptions that drugs and violence prevail; a place that many strive to move away

    from and forget. It is a privilege to be associated with a publication that has afforded

    me a lifelong dream of giving back to the streets I walked as a child. This is not only a

    win for me, but a win for Mitchells Plain. I am proud to say I was born and raised there.

    Thank you to you, who not only read my work, but continue to support and contribute

    to my current and future success. PHOTO: MARITA MEYER

    INTENTION TO SUBMIT A PROCESS

    OUTLINING THE DRAFTING OF THE NEW

    TERM OF OFFICE IDP TO COUNCIL

    Section 28(2) of the Municipal Systems Act 32 of 2000, requires that the municipality consult

    the local community before adopting the process (which will be contained in the process

    plan) of drafting the new Integrated Development Plan. The main steps for the proposed

    process plan in terms of timelines are outlined below:

    During the months of August to October 2016, the City will invite communities, ward

    committees and sector organisations to help prioritise the Citys initiatives at ward,

    subcouncil and Citywide level. This phase will also include consultation with other spheres

    of government to ensure that our plans are aligned.

    During November and December 2016, departments will give feedback via subcouncils

    on issues and comments that communities have raised.

    March 2017 will see the draft IDP and Budget tabled to Council.

    During March to April 2017, the public will be able to comment on the draft IDP and Budget.

    It is envisaged that Council will approve the new IDP for the next five years during May 2017.

    The approved IDP will be made public soon thereafter.

    The product of this consultation process is a Process Plan for the drafting of the next five-year IDP.

    Comments can be submitted from 7 June 2016 until 27 June 2016, to your local

    Subcouncil, library or to the following email address: [email protected].

    School kitchen feeds local kids

    GARY VAN DYK

    eeding hungry learners at HJ Kroneberg

    Primary School is now easier, after the

    school recieved a brand new kitchen.

    On Thursday 2 June thee school accepted

    the 124th kitchen to be created through the

    Peninsula School Feeding Association

    (PFSA)s Buy-a-brick initiative.

    Situated in the heart of Kensington, with

    a learner base of 588 learners, the school

    currently has almost 60% who hail from

    the severely economically disadvantaged

    communities of Langa, Guguletu and

    Khayelitsha.

    SamanthaWilliams, feeding coordinator

    at the school, explainsmanyof the families

    are unable to pay fees due to their circum-

    stances. Much of our school budget is sup-

    plemented by numerous fundraising activ-

    ities and donations. Our school is totally

    committed to giving our learners an excel-

    lent foundation and providing for the child

    holistically. An integral part of that commit-

    ment is to ensure that they are receiving

    proper nourishment.

    At the launch of the new kitchen, princi-

    pal Yul Cupido pointed out the importance

    of the feeding programme at the school.

    Unemployment is rife in so many areas

    surrounding the school and as educators we

    cannot allow our children to go hungry. In

    May 2014 we joined PFSA and currently

    have 275 learners being fed two hot meals

    daily. Initially learnerswere fed in an empty

    classroom, however we soon needed the

    classroom and learners were fed outside

    seated on benches. We were desperately in

    needof a feeding room.That iswhen the staff

    of a leading corporate cameonboard tobuild

    the new facility.

    The PFSA was established in 1958 when

    the government at the time discontinued the

    national school feeding programme.

    Since then, PSFA has been providing

    meals to hungry school children across the

    Western Province, including distant rural

    areas.

    V For more information, visit www.psfa.org.za.

    JOBSEEKERS DATABASE CLEAN-UP

    CAMPAIGN

    Register or update your details on the Citys

    jobseekers database

    The jobseekers database clean-up project is an initiative of the City of Cape Town aimed at

    registering all members of the community who are unemployed and interested in temporary

    basic to semi-skilled work opportunities provided through City projects. It is also aimed at

    updating the details of all those who have already registered on the jobseekers database.

    The intention is to have a database with valid details of all those registered (i.e. their skills,

    contact numbers and addresses).

    Since more than a month ago, contact details have been verified telephonically and per SMS

    as part of this project.

    During phase 3 of this project, EPWP workers will do door-to-door visits in communities

    to assist people in completing jobseekers database registration forms, which will then be

    submitted to subcouncil offices for electronic capturing.

    Members of the community are encouraged to:

    Assist the EPWP workers in doing their job

    Keep a certified copy of their IDs available as this needs to accompany their registration

    form for capturing

    Only allow workers with reflector bibs containing the full project name and visible contact

    details into your home.

    The project will run from Monday 30 May 2016 to Thursday 30 June 2016.

    If you are unemployed and interested in work through the EPWP, make sure you register on

    the Citys jobseekers database at your local subcouncil office.

    Loving the legacy of District Six

    GARY VAN DYK

    @gvdcapejazz

    W

    atching District Six Kanala one of the

    hottest hits on the theatre scene at the

    moment its easy to feel that the partnership

    of the late Taliep Petersen and David Kra-

    mer has been a university of sorts.

    The partnership started in 1986 and some

    of those laaities who started in those pro-

    ductions have grown into seasoned profes-

    sionals inspiring the next generation for the

    stage.

    One of those youngsters who started out

    in those first productions is Woodstocks

    singer/actorLoukmanAdamsandwatching

    him in action in this new production its

    easy to see why he is now an inspiration to

    a new generation on the entertainment

    scene.

    From District Six - The Musical, Poison,

    Kat and the Kings and somanymore leading

    up to what could be seen as a senior role

    in thenewproductionbyDavidKramer, and

    maybe he is now the mentor to some of this

    talented cast of young entertainers.

    In a way that is probably what David

    (Kramer) was looking at when casting this

    production and getting Alistair Izobell to di-

    rect the musical side of things as well, he

    says.

    Growing up in this type of production we

    know the reference point of what is needed.

    This cast is mainly in their twenties, they

    dont know about the legacy of District Six,

    the legacy of the first productions and that

    is where we can guide them.

    We were lucky to hear the real stories

    from people like Salie Daniels, Al Hen-

    dricks and Cyril Valentine who lived the

    stories that we were telling and they made

    it come alive for us.

    With this production I amglad that I can

    bepart of guiding the youngsters tomake

    that story come alive andmaintain the leg-

    acy of District Six.

    Loukman adds that he does not see his

    part in the production as a senior role.

    Noman, Im still too young to a be a sen-

    ior, he laughs.

    Part of the lessons I learnt during those

    early years was humility. Were all part of

    the same cast doing our best to put on the

    best show.

    When I started out I was treated with the

    same respect as any member of the cast and

    it still stands me in good stead today. I try

    to teach these young entertainerswhat Iwas

    taught and hope that they learn from it.

    An integral part of being in this produc-

    tion is acknowledging the joy that the pro-

    duction is bringing to the many people who

    lived in the area and introducing a new gen-

    eration to the injustice of forced removals.

    Every night we can feel the audience en-

    joying every memory, he says.

    V District Six Kanala is at the Fugard Theatre, Cale-

    don Street, Cape Town until Sunday 3 July. Bookings

    and infor from 021 461 4554 or reserve your seat via

    Computicket.com.

    HAROLD CRESSY HIGH

    Birdies and bogeys

    help build new hall

    GARY VAN DYK

    @gvdcapejazz

    B

    irdies and bogeys played their part in

    Harold Cressy Highs fundraising drive

    to complete its new school hall project.

    The fund received a significant boost with

    a cash injection of more than R100 000 from

    its well-supported golf day that was held at

    King David Mowbray Golf Club on Thurs-

    day 26 May.

    The event was organised by the not-for-

    profit Kensington based community organi-

    sation, PlaySport4Life, and theHaroldCres-

    sy Alumni Association.

    At the event, with more than 100 players

    participating, a number of local businesses

    such as Ludski Auto Repairs, Gatti Ice

    Cream, Spitfire Grill, Market Toyota Athlo-

    ne, At Your Service and Giant Hyper played

    their part by sponsoring holes.

    The head of Play Sport4Life, Miles Octo-

    ber, who is also a Cressy old boy, said the

    response was overwhelming particularly

    from ex-Cressyites.

    It is awesome to see howkeen the old stu-

    dents were to get involved to play, perform

    or sponsor in an event that will benefit the

    school in the long term.

    We have even received a hole sponsor-

    ship from an ex-student in Australia.

    It is an ambitious project that the Harold

    Cressy Alumni Association has undertak-

    en. It already has the first phase, the basic

    school hall, in place.

    It now needs a further R1.5m to complete

    the second phase, the wings attached to the

    building.

    The four-ball who played their way to first prize in the Harold Cressy Golf Day are, from left,

    Rodney Richards, Christie Cloete, Clint Alfino and Keith February.

    Ride in thanks

    for gift of life

    GARY VAN DYK

    @gvdcapejazz

    A father from Retreat is taking

    on a motorbike trip with a dif-

    ference to repay a gift of life.

    Almost 38 years ago Tony

    Lawrences daughter, Janine,

    had to undergo an emergency

    blood transfusion at the Red

    CrossWarMemorial Childrens

    Hospital.

    At the time Janine was only

    five days old and her condition

    was considered to be incredibly

    serious. Without the transfu-

    sion she stood very little chance

    of having a normal life and the

    possibility of an early deathwas

    a harsh reality for the family.

    The doctors and nurses at the

    Red Cross Childrens Hospital

    did a wonderful job and Janine

    quickly recovered and grew up

    to be a very healthy adult.

    Now, Tony, a proud dad and

    stroke survivor himself, is rais-

    ing awareness and money for

    the current paediatric ICU cam-

    paign by taking on a 1600km en-

    durance ride that he will aim to

    complete in 24 hours.

    Our family is eternally

    grateful for giving Janine the

    gift of life, he says.

    I am 61 and a stroke survi-

    vor. I have also previously sur-

    vived a ruptured appendix and

    bowel obstruction which result-

    ed in an extended stay in ICU.

    In order to create awareness

    and funding for Red Cross I will

    attempt to ride 1600km in 24

    hours but I am planning to

    complete it in 20 hours on my

    motorcycle with my daughter

    as pillion. This is my first time

    having a pillion rider on an en-

    durance ride, and also her first

    real pillion ride.

    Tony says they will be start-

    ing out at 00:01 on the morning

    of Saturday 18 June and end at

    about 20:00.

    I must emphasise that this is

    not a race, but an endurance

    ride which is well planned and

    for which I have to prepare both

    physically and mentally, says

    Tony.

    There are challenges and

    risks, but the planning helps to

    overcome these. I have previ-

    ously done 1600km in 16.5 hours

    and 2000km in 22.5 hours.

    Therefore, I am confident of

    finishing the ride within the

    time frame.

    The route will take them

    north on the N7 with fuel stops

    at Citrusdal, Vanrhynsdorp,

    Calvinia, Brandvlei, Keimoes,

    Pofadder, Springbok, Bitterfon-

    tein, andCitrusdal again, before

    the last stop at the Red Cross

    Hospital.

    The funds raisedwill go to the

    R100m-plus upgrade and expan-

    sion of the ICU, which will see

    capacity increased from 22 bed

    spaces to 39 bed spaces.

    C

    haeli Mycroft (21) and Anita Engel-

    brecht (23) became the first wheelchair

    athletes to successfully participate and

    complete the gruelling Comrades Mara-

    thon held on Sunday 29 May in Durban.

    After months of in-depth conversation

    and preparation, Mycroft and Engelbretch

    made history. Mycroft and her running

    partners, James Chevallier and Brett Glen,

    entered the race as Team Beastie while

    TeamBlitsigeBlitsiewasmade up of Engel-

    bretch and her running partner, Hilton

    Murray.

    Team Beastie finished in 10:51:45 and

    overall 8427th position, withMycroft being

    the 1358thwomanhome.TeamBlitsigeBlit-

    sie finished in 10:57:51 overall in 9147th po-

    sition with Anita being the 1512th woman

    home. Both teams won bronze medals.

    Mycroft says therewas extra pressure on

    them to do well.

    With this being the first time thatwheel-

    chair athletes were participating in the

    Comrades, we had to do well. Getting a

    bronze medal proved that we have a right

    to be part of this amazing race and this

    opens the door for participation by other

    wheelchair athletes.

    There were several aspects that needed

    to be taken into consideration before being

    able to attempt the 89 kilometre downhill

    race. Custom-made wheelchairs needed to

    be specifically made for each athlete. Their

    running partners participated in several

    marathons in preparation for the Com-

    rades.

    Both athletes believe that people living

    with disabilities should be given the same

    opportunities as able-bodied individuals.

    Mycroft says: We had to fight their way

    to being allowed to take part in the mara-

    thon and they believe things are beginning

    to change for people with disabilities as

    well.

    They believe in building an inclusive so-

    ciety for all and they used the Comrades

    Marathon as a fundraiser to support the

    Chaeli Sports and Recreation Club (CSRC).

    CSRC was founded in February 2010 in

    an effort to provide opportunities for inclu-

    sive sport to act as a catalyst in providing

    opportunities for differently-abled chil-

    dren and adults to experience the therapeu-

    tic and healing magic that comes with be-

    ing a member of a team and the joy of exer-

    cise.

    Mycroft has cerebral palsy (spastic quad-

    riplegic) and is currently reading for an

    honours degree in Social Policy and Man-

    agement at the University of Cape Town.

    She is an ability activist, international

    awardwinner and co-founder of TheChaeli

    Campaign, a non-profit organisation based

    in Plumstead that provides services to chil-

    drenwith disabilities. She has a fierce spir-

    it and believes that people living with disa-

    bilities can achieve the impossible if given

    the opportunity. In September 2015 Chaeli

    became the first female quadriplegic to

    summit Mount Kilimanjaro.

    Team

    Chaeli

    conquers

    Chaeli Mycroft and Anita Engelbretch where

    the first wheelchair athletes to enter the

    comrades marathon and they are proud that

    they were able to finish the race, which

    shows that even people with disabilities

    deserve equal opportunities just like able-

    bodied people.

    According to league director,

    Meurant Botha of Amarider, par-

    ticipation at local events has been

    growing at a steady pace as schools

    accept mountain biking as a recog-

    nized sport. Some schools are go-

    ing as far as building dedicated

    tracks on school grounds to en-

    courage after school practices and

    interschool sports days as well as

    employing coaches and managers

    to oversee teams, says Botha.

    Parents are urged to register

    er.co.za andpre-enter riders online

    More than 100 of Cape Towns fittest athletes

    came together to compete for the title of the

    Deep Souths Fittest held in Kommetjie over

    the weekend.

    The aim of the event is to bring the fitness

    community together, connect athletes of dif-

    ferent fitness levels, training facilities and

    regions.

    The athletes were tested on a broad range

    of fitness modalities across varied time

    spans. From strength to power, balance, co-

    ordination, muscular endurance and meta-

    bolic conditioning levels as well as athletic

    and gymnastic skill.

    The athletes, aged between 18 and 45, had

    the choice of enteringas a teamoras individ-

    uals. Athletes were allocated a one-hour

    time slot to complete three workouts

    throughout the course of the weekend.

    The scoring is based on a combination of

    time (how quickly a workout is completed),

    number of repetitions completed in a set

    time and heaviest weight lifted on the bar-

    bell movements.

    The event is about forging friendships

    and community spirit and to celebrate

    health and fitness. To strengthen the reputa-

    tion and competency of athleticism in the re-

    gion.Aswell as hosting ahigh qualityCross-

    Fit style sporting event, says Dave Giloi

    event organiser and professional fitness

    coach.

    Who is the fittest of them all?

    Andrew OBrien from Crossfit Mother City

    performed a two metre long jump repeatedly

    as many times as possible in two minutes

    during the competition held in Kommetjie over

    the weekend.
