CITY LANDMARK: VAGRANTS, CRIME A THREAT

Castle under guardNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

One of the city’s oldest land-marks is being protected –not against an onslaught

from the enemy, but against va-grants.The board of the Castle of Good

Hope has called for the South Afri-can National Defence Force(SANDF) to step up in securing theheritage site.The Castle’s control board CEO,

Calvyn Gilfellan, says the boardhas regularly informed the defencedepartment of reported vagrancyand crime.“They, in turn, engage police and

other roleplayers who from time totime conduct crime-related opera-tions in the affected areas.We viewthe vagrancy and resultant crimi-nality as a socio-economic problemaffecting the entire city and our so-ciety at large.We therefore supportan approach that is not only takingcognisance of the fact the peopleare homeless, unemployed, vulner-able and destitute, but one that rec-ognises that a multi-disciplinaryapproach is required,” he says.The board is mandated to con-

serve, promote and manage thehistoric Castle, Gilfellan says.“I have personally escalated this

matter at national level. The boardhas installed CCTV in and aroundthe historic building, tightened upaccess control and is busy with asponsored project to significantlyimprove the external illuminationof the castle. The deployed SANDFguards also perform periodicclean-up and round-up operationsin the area under the bridge,” hesays.Police are also carrying out a

number of operations to prevent

theft out of vehicles and muggingsin the area, says Cape Town Cen-tral Police spokesperson CaptainEzra October.“It is a concern to the police that

vehicles of owners working in thesurrounding areas are being bro-ken into and people walking towork or college are being mugged.We have had reports of robberiesand theft out of a vehicle in StrandStreet, near to where a number ofstreet people gather. The suspectswere identified through CCTV vid-eo footage during detective investi-gations,” he says.However, Gilfellan says even

more crimes are taking placearound the monument.“We have heard reports about

prostitution, car break-ins and pet-

ty theft and have firsthand knowl-edge that fires are being lit, usingwater from the moat, littering, ex-posure in public and swearing atarmy personnel confronting themnot to trespass. I don’t believe theincidents relating to break-ins ofvehicles in Strand Street can beblamed on the homeless alone,” hesays.“The fact that we have escalated

this as a risk at national levelshows we view this in a seriouslight. The immediate impact is ob-viously reputational and aesthetic,but if a serious crime should becommitted, it will have a negativeimpact on our visitor numbers –around 150 000 a year.Weare doingsomething to mitigate the risk butit is also important that all the citi-

zens take ownership and responsi-bility for this national heritage siteby regularly using it, therebymak-ing it uncomfortable for opportun-istic elements to hang around,” hesays.TheCity ofCapeTown’sMayoral

Committee member for Safety andSecurity JP Smith says while thepolice is the primary agency re-sponsible for crimeprevention, theCity’s Displaced People’s Unit, inconjunction with the City’s SocialDevelopment Department, willconduct an integrated operation inthe area.The City’s Social Development

Department will deploy fieldwork-ers to the area to assess the situa-tion, says Mayoral Committeemember for Social Development

and Early Childhood DevelopmentSuzette Little.“These fieldworkers will engage

with the persons living on thestreet and offer to take them to anassessment centre or a night shel-ter in the area.” She says it mustbenoted theCity “cannot force peo-ple to takeup the offer of assistance– this is entirely voluntary”.Gilfellan would like to see an ho-

listic approach to a solution. “Ithink if we involve the homelesswhile a longer-term solution is ex-plored, wemay curb petty crime inthe area. The reality is we cannotdrive the people away while offer-ing no alternative. With the excep-tion of a few bad elements amongthem, society at large is to blamefor this socio-economic problem.”

ANIMALCARE: SPCA ISSUES A WARNING

Distemper alertDog owners are cautioned by

authorities to vaccinate theirpets against Canine Distem-

per (CD).Last Tuesday, the Cape of Good

Hope SPCA issued an important re-minder to dog owners to vaccinateboth their puppies and older dogsagainst this aggressive disease.Wanika Rusthoi, spokesperson

for the organisation, says CD is a vi-rus that affects a dog’s respiratory,gastrointestinal and central nerv-ous systems, as well as the conjunc-tival membranes of the eye.Noticeable signs of distemper in-

clude shedding, thick mucus dis-charge from the eyes and nose, fe-ver, lethargy and sudden vomitingand diarrhoea.“The virus does, however, have

an incubation period of two weekswherein symptoms are not noticea-ble, and somedogs are able to be car-riers of the virus without showingsymptoms themselves,” saysRusthoi.“Infection is preventable through

up to date vaccinations.”The organisation urges dog own-

ers to ensure their pet’s vaccina-tions areup todate, includinganan-

nual booster vaccination.“Pet owners who take their dogs

for walks in public areas like parksor beaches, shouldmake sure to vis-it their vet annually for a boostervaccination against this, and otherviruses which can affect their dog’shealth,” she says.Rusthoi says the Cape of Good

Hope’s Gorfinkel Animal Hospitalin Grassy Park has been placed un-der quarantine for the next fourweeks. Non-emergencies would bereferred to other animal welfare or-ganisations where the facilities areunaffected by the virus.

IN SIGHT: A five-year collab-oration between The ShineCentre, Mullers Optome-trists and the NPO OneSighthas resulted in over 500children at six schools hav-ing their vision tested re-cently. Good, sharp vision isfundamental to a child’s de-velopment and their abilityto learn. The earlier any vi-sion impairment is detect-ed, the more successful cor-rection treatment will be.Sineziso Baartman, from StPaul’s Primary School in Bo-Kaap, received a new pair ofRay-ban Junior spectaclesfrom OneSight’s JonellJanse van Rensburg, OdetteNinow-Cullen and Ibte-shaam Kolbe.

System aids in enrolmentsThe provincial education depart-ment has launched an online sys-tem to simplify pupil enrolments.Work started on the School Ad-

missions Management Information(Sami) system last year and saw thefirst implementation on 8 August tomanage enrolment of pupils for2015.

The system makes it easier forschools to keep trackof applicationsand share information with otherschools and officials.The education department devel-

oped the system in collaborationwith the Centre for e-Innovation(CEI) to tackle the challenges of out-of-date information on pupil place-

ment, tracking information on are-as most under pressure, and theneed to crosscheckmultiplewaitinglists.Provincial education minister

Debbie Schäfer says the system isthe way forward.“Having information such as this

available to us will greatly assist usin not only ensur-ing pupils areplaced before the2015 school yearstarts, butwill alsoassist in placingpupils who enrollate,” she says.The system will

show the numberof available placesat a school, and thenumber of applica-tions per grade atschool, circuit anddistrict level.“The new sys-

tem has simplifiedthe process consid-erably as schoolscan now use thesystem to captureapplications on acentralised data-base,” Schäferadds.The system can

also generate listsof pupils acceptedat more than oneschool and parentswill have until Fri-day 26 Septemberto decide whichschool they wouldlike their child toattend should theybe accepted atmore than one.Schools will not

have to re-enterpupil details for2015 if theyhave al-ready capturedthem in Sami.

CRIME: CAMERAS TRAINED ON OFFENDERS

Zoom-into track yourmovementsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

A new licence plate recognition (LPR)camera system is gaining traction intracking down offenders in the Sea

Point precinct.The system now utilises 15 cameras, with

Green Point now also being included.The Sea Point Improvement District

plans to install 25 cameras to create one ofthe most extensive LPR networks in CapeTown.

This will guard all entry and exit pointsin Green Point, Sea Point, Fresnaye andBantry Bay.

At a cost of around R2m, the improvementdistrict and local businesses have fundedthe installation.

LPR project manager Jacques Weber saysthe first set of cameras in Green Point arecompletely operational and working per-fectly.

Green Point will need around a dozencameras to cover all entry and exit points.

“The Green Point main entry points aredouble roads which require an LPR camerafor each lane.

“These cameras fall under the Sea PointLPR project and as funding becomes availa-

ble we will install cameras across the entireprecinct,” he says.

“The sooner we have residents in GreenPoint contributing towards the project, thesooner we can install more cameras.

“There are many new blocks of flats andhouses being built in the area and I wouldlike to challenge Green Point residents toget involved and donate to the project. Eve-ry additional camera which is installed in-creases the chance of catching anothercriminal.”

The cameras record the licence plates ofvehicles travelling through the area, imme-diately alerting law enforcement agenciesshould the vehicle be linked to any criminalactivity.

The cameras are able to zoom in on thevehicle, revealing details on the car and thefaces of the driver and passengers.

The system is also linked to the surround-ing suburbs of Camps Bay, Devil’s Peak andTamboerskloof, says Tager.

This means should a vehicle be involvedin a crime in Tamboerskloof, the camerasystem will pick it up when it enters SeaPoint.

It is hoped the initiative will yield a dra-matic drop in Sea Point’s vehicle-relatedcrime statistics, as it affords the CID the

means to spot crime in real time and to iden-tify the perpetrators and their vehiclesthrough enhanced optics.

The camera system will assist police withthe gathering of information and investiga-tions, says Sea Point police spokespersonWarrant Officer Bheki Xulu.

“Crimes such as robberies, vehicle theft,hijacking and burglaries will be monitoredwith the system, which will improve the po-lice’s ability to detain and convict crimi-nals.”V For more information or to make a donation to-wards the camera project, contact the Sea Point Im-provement District at getinvolved@seapointcpf.comor on (021) 434 1234.

STREET PEOPLE: AIM TO BREAK PERCEPTION

‘Historians’carry storiesof the streetNICOLE MCCAIN

Guarding the history of Cape Town’sstreets – this is how non-profit or-ganisation Sarandonga sees the

homeless.Sarandonga works to empower street

people by providing skills training andchanging the way they are perceived.Sarandonga spokesperson Nceba Da-

ni says they strive to tell the stories ofpeople living on the street and questionthe negative perceptions many have ofstreet people.“We are bringing about the humanity

and showing that society can play a ma-jor role in the social reintegration ofsomeone who has gone through the un-fortunate situation of being on thestreet.“Every man is just a step away from

that pavement – that is the message wewant to spread,” he says.The organisation is attempting to

change perceptions by using an alterna-tive name for street people.“We are not bergies, we are not street

people or whatever name you choose forus. We are the street historians becausewe carry the tales and stories of thesestreets,” Dani says.“We are talented in our ownways –we

are musicians, mathematicians, scien-tists, visionaries.“Why call us a name that demeans or

dehumanises us? If you wish to seesomeone off the streets, call them an in-spirational and motivational name.”Street people are often spoken of as a

“plague or irritation to the city. We areattempting to shine a different light onthis issue and show a different side ofpeoplewhohave fallenprey tovictimisa-tion, segregation and alienation. Wewant to show that we are also humanwhether living on the street or not,” hesays.The organisation operates from the

Napier Street Haven night shelter andruns a three-week self- development pro-gramme to deal with the wide range ofissues street people face daily.V To find out more about Sarandonga or how youcan assist street people contact Dani on084 7292 418.

EDUCATION: ONLINE PLATFORM BOOSTS STUDENT NUMBERS

Study at the clickof a mouseNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

In an attempt to make further educationmore accessible, UCT is looking online togrow classes.With the university’s facilities only allow-

ing for just over 26 000 students, virtual class-rooms are now allowing the university tomake learning available to more students,across the continent.

This follows on a report from the Centre forHigher Education Transformation whichfound 2.7 million school leavers are not access-ing education, training or employment.

The university recently launched threepostgraduate diplomas online to enable stu-dents across Africa to study with interactivesupport.

The Across Africa programmes, offered byUCT’s Faculty of Commerce, in partnershipwith GetSmarter, combine the use of a flexibleand interactive online education platformwith face-to-face learning.

Across Africa managing director JacquesRousseau added: “Having road-tested theAcross Africa online education platform my-

self in teaching a class of 1 500 students, it isclear that students appreciate – and greatlybenefit from – the opportunity to work on theirown schedules, as well as to receive peer andinstructor support virtually on-demand.”

Due to the nature of the online learning plat-form, a large group of students can be accom-modated at any given time.

While the course is currently focused onpostgraduate studies, undergraduate pro-grammes are soon to follow, says Get-Smarterchief academic officer Rob Paddock.

“We will be introducing eight new coursesinto market by 2015 , to add to our current port-folio of 55 courses (90% of which are presentedin conjunction with UCT), as well as our ex-panding our postgraduate programmes post-2015, in partnership with the university,” hesays.

GetSmarter offers extensive payment plansfor their short courses and postgraduate pro-grammes to allow students to pay for theirstudies over a certain period of time, Paddocksays.

The course will start in February and theuniversity has already received around 200 ap-plications.

No fines during Book WeekAnyone who owes City of Cape Town li-braries a fine will have a free pass duringNational Book Week.

It runs from Monday 1 to Sunday 7 Sep-tember with the theme Going places.

The week aims to promote and embracethe value of reading and is a joint initia-tive between the Department of Arts andCulture and the South African Book De-velopment Council, says a City statement.

During this week library patrons can re-turn overdue material to City librarieswithout having to pay fines.

The theme focuses on the power of booksand how they can take us places – both interms of progress and imagination.

Reading statistics show only 14% of theSouth African population are active bookreaders and only 5% of parents read totheir children.

Belinda Walker, City Mayco member forCommunity Services and SpecialProjects, says: “National Book Week is animportant initiative in encouraging thenation to value reading as a fun and pleas-urable activity and to showcase how read-ing can easily be incorporated into one’sdaily lifestyle.”

Returning long overdue books is some-thing everyone loathes doing, she says.

“It leaves us feeling like naughty school

children, sheepishly approaching the li-brary counter muttering excuses. But anylibrary materials returned late during Na-tional Book Week are exempt from a finefor this week only. It provides a grace peri-od for all those who have been putting offtaking their long overdue books back tothe library.”

Ninnie Steyn, director of Library andInformation Services, says: “We knowthat with today’s fast-paced lifestyles, re-turning library books is often just oneitem on a long list of things to do. We wantto provide people with an incentive tobring back forgotten library books.”

If you consider the numbers of books be-ing circulated by Cape Town’s libraries,it’s easy to see why keeping tabs on booksis no small task.

Cape Town boasts 100 libraries, threesatellite libraries and a mobile libraryservice. Almost 12 million people visitedthe City’s libraries during 2013 and 11.7million books were borrowed.

Nearly 90 000 new members joined theCity’s libraries in the last year and about900 000 people attended over 22 000 libraryprogrammes in the same period. These in-clude reading, literacy, gender and HIV/Aids programmes as well as storytellingsessions and DVD screenings.

PEOPLE'S POST | ATLANTIC SEABOARD | CITY EDITIONThursday, 28 August 2014 SPORT 11

TASMIN CUPIDO@TazzCup

The challenge for the WP Rugby’s SuperLeague A Grand Challenge trophy cul-minates this weekend.

But the UCT boys will have their titlehopes and fate in the hands of one of theirbiggest rivals, Hamiltons RFC, as the menfrom Green Point travel to Stellenbosch totake on Maties on Saturday.The Ikey Tigers played their final match

of the first round, which determines the ulti-matewinners of the top tier of Cape club rug-by, when they took on Victorians in Stellen-bosch last Friday evening.And they continued with the superb form

they have shown throughout the season,thumpingVics 20-71 at theDanieCravenSta-dium.Going into this weekend’s clashes, Ikeys,

who will not be in action this weekend, willremain at the top of the league – just threepoints ahead of Maties.But Hammies, who are currently in third

place on 56 points, will face amammoth taskon Saturday. Maties are the only unbeatenteam in the league and will look to snatchthe top spot and trophy from their arch ri-vals – especially after their losses to UCT inthe Varsity Cup.

The Maties/Hammies encounter will un-doubtedly be the biggest clash of the SLA.The other SLA results of Southern Sub-

urbs teams last weekend: SK Walmers vsDurb-Bell 5-68; Hammies vs Tygerberg 45-19;False Bay vs Bellville 68-0; Primrose vs Mat-ies 17-50.ThisweekendSouthernSuburbswill be in

action in the following SLAmatches: Matiesvs Hamiltons; UWC vs Primrose; Victoriansvs SK Walmers; False Bay vs NNK.

V In Super League B, the biggest clash thisweekendwill see Villager RFC host Sir Low-rians in a top-of-the-table clash in Clare-mont.The Dirty Whites will look to improve on

their 7-5 victory overPnielVillagers last Fri-day evening. The match will also determinethe SLBwinner and automatic SLAcontend-er for next weekend.Meanwhile, Surrey Estate Rangers will

travel to the Northern Suburbs to take onBrackenfell RFC. Rangers will look to puttheir 12-24 loss to rivalsCollegians lastweek-end behind them as they tackle a side accus-tomed to playing at their muddy home.The Surrey Estate side are still awaiting

the outcome of their scheduled matchagainst Sir Lowrians two weeks ago. Thematch was called off by the referee as thefield was deemed unsuitable for play. WP

Rugbyhas yet tomake a decision on themat-ter.Collegians will look to continue their win-

ning momentum as they host GoodwoodRFC in Lentegeur.

V In Super League C Violets RFC contin-ued their winning form when they beatRaithbyUniversals 23-19 atChukkerRoad inLansdowne last Saturday; MIT Rangerswere defeated 7-11 by Stellenbosch-Corona-tions; and Silvertree RFC played to an 18-18stalemate with Northerns at Malta Park inSybrand Park.This weekend sees the following Southern

Suburbs teams in action in SLC: Fran-schhoek United vs Violets; Northerns vsMIT Rangers; and Silvertree vs Strand.

V The following matches will be played inthe Champions League this weekend: YoungStars vs YoungWesleys and Masiphumelelevs Young Ideas.

V In the Southern League, the followingteams will do battle: Titans vs Thistle; Re-treat vs Richmond Rangers; Peninsula vsYoung Brothers; and Bishop Lavis vs Rock-lands.

V The City League will see the followingmatches being played: Police vs Temper-ance-Cities; Progress vs Hamediehs; Watso-nia vs Perseverance; and Tech-Gardens vsBusy Bees.

@TazzCup

ASDCape Townhave lifted theirmaidenEngen Knockout Challenge trophy af-ter beating Liverpool-Portland FC in

the tournament final at the weekend.The Claremont-based side scored one goal

to none to be crowned the Cape’s best under-17 team at Stephan Reagan Sports Complexin Westridge, Mitchell’s Plain on Sunday 24August. The lone goal came from the boot ofstriker Caleb Sampson.The 11th edition of the tournament, of

which People’s Post is the print media spon-sor, saw 16 teams from across the peninsulavie for the coveted title, hefty cash prize andtrophy.The final was an evenly contested affair,

despite ASD, who were the losing finalistslast year, dominating both the territory andpossession statistics throughout the match.The local lads fromPortlandwere the first

side to bother the goalkeeper in the firstquarter, as a strike from outside the boxwassaved by ASD goalkeeper Darren Johnson.The shot brushed Johnson’s fingertips andwent out for a corner.The corner kick was punched out by the

goalkeeper as he moved out of the box andthe deflection fell into the lap of a Liverpool-Portland player, who struck a shot on thevolley. But his shot hit the crossbar.In the secondquarter,ASDagaindominat-

ed the statistics and started to put the pres-sure on the Liverpool-Portland defence.While they managed to penetrate the defen-sive line, their attacks on goal were dealtwith by the Liverpool-Portland goalkeeper,who was the team’s stand-out performer.At the death of the first half, ASD threat-

ened to score again, but the Liverpool-Port-land ’keeperwas again up to the task, savinghis side from going into the half-time breaka goal down.The second half continued as the first,

with both teamsmanaging to break throughthe other’s defence, but their weak shots ongoal were easily kept away from the net byboth goalkeepers.Twelve minutes into the half Liverpool-

Portland and their fans were celebrating asthey thought they had scored the openinggoal when a shot found the net. But their cel-ebrationswere short-livedas refereeJeromeDamon blew his whistle when the assistantreferee found the “goalscorer” to be offside.A fewminutes later, the tournamentmade

history as the first female referee, NoleneSwarts, took over the whistle from Damon

who was injured during the course of thematch.And it was just five minutes later that

Sampson sunk the hopes of Liverpool-Port-land and their supporters, bringing an endto their dream run.ASD will now represent the Cape at the

EngenChampsofChamps inSoweto inOcto-ber. They will take on PE Sundowns, Ama-Zulu, Harmony Academy, Supersport Unit-ed Academy and Bidvest Wits Juniors, whoall won the Engen Knockout Challenge intheir respective regions.This year’s Cape Town Challenge lived up

to its theme of Be Your Best, as several play-ers stood out throughout the weekend. Hel-lenic FC’s Riyaaz Ismail was named the de-fender of the tournament for his modern-style of play, marshalling his team and

aiding on attack when necessary.The best striker was Glendene United’s

Jody Jansen, who scored eight goals, heldthe ballwell and ran into spaces. Hewas alsothe tournament’s top goalscorer.Johnson, who conceded only three goals

throughout the weekend, was named goal-keeper of the tournament, while ChippaUnited’s Heinrich van Zyl was rewarded forthe tournament’s first hat-trick and quick-est goal.The player of the tournament was also
