You are driving in your car and see a stray dog wandering around, looking lost. What should you do? Below is advice from the JSPCA:Firstly you need to ensure your own safety. You cannot help the animal if you become

injured or are in an unsafe situation.An animal that is lost, frightened or possibly ill can behave unpredictably. A simple move like opening your car door can cause the dog to run away and possibly be hit by another vehicle. Do not chase the animal. The animal may be a couple of meters away from his

house and by chasing the animal will cause him to become lost.When you approach the animal, speak calmly and try enticing him/her using strong smelling food such as tuna. You can try lure the dog into your vehicle, but do so with caution as it

isn’t a good idea to drive with a strange dog unrestrained in your car.It is very difficult, even for SPCA staff, to catch a dog that is running frantically in the road. To prevent the animal from being injured or causing an accident, we ask the caller to please get the animal into a confined area.Please do contact JPCA immediately and be as descriptive as possible such as what the nearest corner is, any landmarks, what direction the dog is moving in etc.

You can call JSCPA during working hours or their duty inspector is available 24 hours a day for injured stray animals.JHB Duty Inspector 083 604 1172JHB Landline: 011 681 3600

“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”- John 3:16I trust that everyone had a blessed Easter, enjoyed time off work and that a lot of chocolate bunnies were eaten but most of all I hope that this time was taken to reflect what Jesus did for us. He died on the cross for us so all of our sins could be forgiven and that we could spend eternal life with our Heavenly Father.Now many think salvation is only about going to heaven but God doesn’t only want that, He wants an intimate relationship with us right now as we live on earth. He craves to become part of our lives now. I look back when I wasn’t a believer and to my life now and there is a massive difference. I have peace in my life now, my life isn’t perfect and never will be but yet I am content, fulfilled and loved yet still so hungry for more of Him as he makes me feel so good and secure. God is a god of love, healing and restoration and ever since I gave my life to him two and half years ago my life has been blessed in every single aspect.I pray that everyone could experience this- the freedom of knowing that your life is in the hands of a Father who loves you so much and there is someone there who wants to carry your burdens for you. If you just handed everything over to Him and trust in Him, you will experience the joy that God gives His children. It is something that cannot be described, only felt.I have to admit my excitement grows as my relationships deepens with God. I know I still have leaps and bounds to go but I am forever thankful to Jesus for dying on the cross so my Father could see me as pure as white snow even though I am not.

Thank you Jesus.

Remembering what Jesus done for us

In an advert pertaining to tame TIMES, and in tame TIMES 5th year birthday editions, reference was made to tame TIMES having ‘over 3million read-ers” and “almost 3million readers are reached through out Ekurhuleni, City of Johannesburg, Limpopo, North West and the Northern part of Gauteng”. This statement should have been qualified by referring to the relevant time period appli-

cable i.e. “per month”. The tame team wish-es to apologise should this have caused any misconception or confusion. Taking the ex-ponential growth of tame TIMES into consid-eration, and the roll-out of the tame TIMES titles which is planned, we wish one day to advise you, our readers and advertisers, that through your continuous support and loyal-ty, we are indeed reaching millions per week.

The Gauteng Department of Education hosted a conference on 15 April at Turffontein Race Course to reflect on the provisioning of public sector education in the province since the advent of democracy. The conference arises out of an independent review conducted into public schooling in Gauteng from 1994-2014. The review, conducted by independent academic researchers under the auspices of Wits School of Education, was commissioned by the department in 2013. “We thought it prudent that as we celebrate twenty years of democracy in our country, we should also use this time to reflect on the gains made and the road ahead,” said Gauteng Education MEC, Barbara Creecy.The conference, which brought together various stakeholders from the education sector aimed to: Present the outcomes of the Review; to provide a platform for a constructive discussion; to discuss progress to date and the remaining gaps; to share new and emerging challenges as well as the defining priorities for the next 20 years; to advance knowledge and research based implementation of strategies and policies and to promote inclusivity and accountability amongst all stakeholders engaged in the delivery of education.

Parallel sessions of discussion took place after Dr Martin Prew gave an overview of the 20 year review in the GDE. The Review outlines some of the notable achievements by the Province with regard to public education: • Ordinary schooling has grown by 59%, from 1.3 million learners in 1994 to 2.1 million today, a massive increase of 809 334 learners.• In Special Schools, numbers have risen by 65%, from 25 515 to 42 058 learners today.• The recruitment and distribution of teachers has increased from 44 020 across the public school system in 1995 to 54 803, to meet the challenges of increasing learner numbers.• In special schools, teacher numbers are

up by 50% since 1995, growing from 2028 to 3059 teachers in 2014.

The MEC pointed out that the number of learners writing matric had increased by 33% since 1996, with numbers rising from 73,164 to 97,897. The matric pass rate increased from 61% in 1994 to 87% last year given a total increase of 43% when compared to that of 1994. The MEC noted that the flow through rate of Gauteng learners is the best in the country. A measure used to see how many learners stay in school from grade 1 through to grade 12 showed that 65% of Grade 1 learners who started in 2002 reached grade 12 in 2013, compared with 42% who made it from Grade 1 in 1995 to Grade 12 in 2006. “All of these successes must be seen against the backdrop of a growing number of no fee schools and this means in practical terms, that education is free for the majority of our children in Gauteng public schools,” said MEC Creecy.

MEC Creecy highlighted three areas for focus going forward, these are:• Teacher development• A Social Plan to address issues such as bullying, school violence, and ill-discipline.• School governance, including improvement of training for governing bodies.

Thaba trailsAt the Southern tip of the City of Johannesburg is a large piece of privately owned land called the Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve, complete with hills, grasslands, indigenous trees and game. Thanks to Wendell Bole, who passionately built and maintains the Rietvlei Farm trails just a few kilometers away, Gauteng mountain bikers now have another safe, varied trail network to tide- Thaba Trials.

Cost: R30 per person per day (R5 of this goes towards buying more game).Secure parking: Yes E-mail: Wendell Bole at [email protected]

Three trial options:Yellow: Beginners/novicesGreen: Intermediate level ridersBlue: Experienced or more advanced riders

This is a game reserve so don’t expect perfectly manicured trails, although the Yellow trails have a gentler surface. For Green and Blue routes, expect bush riding at its best – remember this, is mountain biking, not gravel-road cycling. Riders like the hills at Thaba Trails because there isn’t that much gradient-rich trail riding elsewhere close to the city. This gives you some properly challenging climbs and descent, some long and winding and others steep and sketchy.Bole has ensured that all levels (skills and fitness) are catered for at Thaba Trails making it a great family riding destination. Incredibly, it’s just 8 km from the Johannesburg city limits, but there are times when you are riding at Thaba that feels like you’re far from the madness of the country’s biggest city. There’s a coffee shop, a bike shop and arts and crafts stalls for non-riding friends or family to browse. The Panorama Shopping Centre is also across the road should your non-riding spouse/friend/ partner want a

more commercial environment to spend time in while you ride.Distance:Yellow 1: 6kmYellow 2: 15kmGreen: 22kmBlue: NANovice: 8/10Intermediate: 8/10Advanced: 8/10Tyres: There’s a mixture of rocky and soft trail surfaces – typical of Gauteng conditions. A firm sidewall tyre is recommended.Best thing: It’s close to Johannesburg and offers a wide range of trails with some decent distances among wild animals including zebra, wildebeest, impala, blesbok, springbok and more.Best season: All seasons should be good here. Because of the gradient, the summer rains should drain well.Directions: From the N3 (around the East of Johannesburg) or the N1 (around the West of Joburg), take the N12 and hugs the head south (away from the city).Travel 6.5km down Klipriver Drive. On your left you will see the Panorama Shopping Centre, take the next right turn into the Thaba Trails gate.

Excitement is mounting for the SASCOC Triple Crown and Intercontinental Village Day which is set to make Turffontein Race Course come alive on 26 April when it hosts the third and final leg of the much anticipated Triple Crown.Last week Thursday the Charity Draw saw newly crowned Miss South Africa 2014, Rolene Strauss, officiate the draw which de-termined which charity and nationality are paired with a particular horse in the main

race. tame TIMES, which is a Triple Crown media partner, was paired with the commu-nity of Lebanon and the St. Charbel Helping Hand World organisation and drew the race horse Taarish.However it is Louis the King who has the most media attention, having won two legs of the SASCOC Triple Crown, he has only the third leg the South Africa Derby to conquer and establish himself as a true legend. Louis the King is poised to become just the sec-

ond horse ever to win South Africa’s Triple Crown, earning him a cool R2 million bonus and elevating him to legendary status. Only one other horse has ever won all three legs of the Triple Crown: the renowned Horse Chestnut stunned the nation when he won in 1999.Phumelela Gaming will be donating a total of R150 000, shared between the various nominated charities. Beneficiaries include St. Mary’s Children’s Home, Reach for a Dream, Animal Anti-Cruelty, The Star Seaside Fund, Operation Snowball and The Highveld Horse Care Unit.

“The anticipation of driving home in one of three

brand new VW Polos, the incredible vari-ety of cuisine from around the world, free

entry to the race track and the pos-sibility of Louis the King taking the Triple Crown has ensured incred-ible interest in the day itself. We are expecting record attendance at what

promises to be a not to be missed family day out,” enthused Mi-chael Varney, Phumelela’s Marketing Man-ager.With over 50 Ferrari’s on display, vibrant live entertainment, the thrill of live horse racing, a free carnival for the kids and gourmet cuisine from countries such as Portugal, Greece, China, India, Lebanon, Italy, Scotland, Ser-bia, Spain and South Africa there really is no better way to spend a Saturday.Gates open at 11:00, entry and parking is free.

With the Easter period behind us, SANBS blood stock levels is expected to be impacted. Blood stock levels become of great concern over the holiday periods as many of our regular donors are on leave. The constant demand for blood supply places the South African National Blood Service (SANBS) under immense pressure during this time.Traditionally, the month of April is a difficult time owing to the number of holidays. There are not enough blood drives and initiatives to fill the gaps left by the absence of educational institutions. SANBS needs to maintain a stock level of 5 days at all times by collecting 3000 units of blood per day and this becomes very difficult to achieve. “Blood donation needs to be made a priority, as this small act has a huge impact on the patients who depend on transfusions for their survival,” Vanessa Raju, Communications Manager of SANBS said. Blood donation is a simple act of kindness that can save up to three lives. People between the ages of 16 and 65, weighing more than 50kg, who are in good health and lead a safe sexual lifestyle, may donate blood every 56 days. The public is encouraged to donate blood to help save the lives of thousands of patients in dire need of blood transfusions.

Increase in theft of valuables

With regards to last week’s front page article. I’ve heard stories of crèches were the teachers give kids medication to make them sleep. But this is shock-ing. A lot of what’s happening comes down to poor administration by Social Development and Child Welfare. How often do they send out inspectors to examine these facilities and check if these organisations are regis-tered and are compliant?I had an incident with a well known crèche in Alberton. When I reported the incident to Social Development, the only words to me were,: “we asked the crèche to register with us to become legal”. They over looked my

complaint and swept it under the carpet. A note to all parents, please check that the facility your kids are attending is regis-tered with the relevant departments. Walk into the facility and see what’s happening behind the scenes, don’t stand at the door waiting for your kid to arrive, walk in to col-lect them. Do you know for sure that your child is sleeping on a clean mattress, or do you take the word of the crèche that it is so? Do you know what they had to eat dur-ing the day? I challenge you to do this; you may be shocked to see what the truth is.Why wait for something like this to happen before action is taken.

Poor administration by Social Development

You can get a grant to see you through your old age. An older persons grant is paid to people who are 60 years or older. This grant used to be called the old age pension.

In order To quAlIfY You musT:- be a South African citizen or permanent resident - live in South Africa- not receive any other social grant for yourself - not be cared for in a state institution - not earn more than R49 200 per year or own assets worth more than R831 600 if you are single - not have a combined income of more than R99 840 per year if you are married, and you and your spouse must not have assets worth more than R1 663 200.

How mucH wIll You geT? The maximum amount that you will get is R1 350 per month. If you are older than 75 years, you will get R 1 350 + R20 = R1 370 How wIll You be PAId? The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) will pay the grant to you through one of the following methods:- cash at a specific pay point on a particular day - electronic deposit into your bank or Postbank account (the bank may charge you for the service) - institutions (e.g. old age home).Note: If you are unable to collect the money your-self, you can appoint a procurator at the SASSA

office, or give someone power of attorney to collect the grant on your behalf. wHen wIll Your grAnT lAPse? The grant will lapse when you:- pass away - are admitted to a state institution - do not claim for three consecutive months - are absent from the country.

Love our pensionerseveryone has a granny or a granddad and one day we will all be pensioners as well. Pensioners have had their fair share of working most of their lives with some pensioners still working. As we all know the government older person’s grant is not much and the cost of living is ever increasing so tame TImes calls on the community to love our pensioners and offer them pensioner’s discount. below are some great specials for pensioners to make use of.

How do you qualify for government old person’s grant?*Information taken from www.services.gov.za.
