RED HILL

No cash for mobile clinicNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

The deteriorating Red Hill clinic may bereplaced by a new mobile healthcareunit, but only if funding can be found

for the project.The community is in need of a new facility

due to the current clinic’s state of disrepair,says ward councillor Simon Liell-Cock.The toilets have been vandalised and the

clinic looks dilapidated, he explains.Community member Luyanda Lombo

says the roof leaks. There is not enough secu-rity around the property and the yard isopen.In addition, the facility is very small,

which forces community members to waitoutside, which is a concern during cold win-ter months.Liell-Cock hoped that a mobile unit would

be installed, which could later be moved toa planned housing development in Dido Val-ley.But after lobbying for a new clinic for

more than a year, no funding is available for

a mobile healthcare facility.Siyabulela Mamkeli, mayoral committee

member for health, says a provisional coston the temporary structure alone wasR350 000. Additional costs such as a link tothe electricity and water supplies, as well asperimeter fencing and security, are not in-cluded in this estimation.Repairs are currently carried out as need-

ed at the clinic. Painting was done recently.The proposedmobile clinic may bemoved

toanewsite, following safety concernsat thecurrently clinic, explains Liell-Cock.

This after the staff were unable to leavethe facility safely during a protest last year.The possible new site is on land reserved

and used by Sanparks, saysMamkeli, whichis currently used as a depot site.“The new site is outside the informal set-

tlement and it would be enclosed with pali-sade fencing. Staffmemberswould also haveaccess to mobile panic buttons and metalwhistles,” he says.However, Lombo believes the proposed

site is too far, making it difficult to reach onfoot.

False Bay College students LuthandoMatheke from Khayelitsha and AdenMoore from Mitchell’s Plain had lotsof fun helping in the main kitingarena of the 21st Cape TownInternational Kite Festival inMuizenberg on Saturday. Studentsvolunteer to help organiser CapeMental Health at the festival everyyear. Wind and heavy rain led to thecancellation of the last day of thisyear’s kite festival on Sunday.

One-day-only kitefestival inspiresMAGRIET THERON

@magrietron

Spectacular kites, like a 30m worm and afamily of octopi designed by Parow kite

maker Ian Islip, adorned the skies of Muiz-enberg at the 21st International Kite Festi-val on Saturday.Kiters from four countries (South Africa,

Germany, the Netherlands and the UnitedKingdom) showed off their colourful crea-tions at what was supposed to be a two-dayfestival with kite-making workshops, com-petitions and a mass fly.But the host and beneficiary of what has

become Africa’s biggest kite festival, CapeMental Health, suffered a major financialblow on Sunday when gale-force winds andheavy rains led to the cancellation of thesecond day of the festivities.Cape Mental Health’s deputy director,

Vimla Pillay, says because of the suddenchange in the weather an anticipated in-come of at least R300 000 has been lost. Thedecision to cancel followed the event safetyofficer’s directive.The funds raised at this annual event are

used to help uplift the lives of children andadults affected by mental disabilities byproviding vital mental health services.“TheKiteFestival is our biggest fundrais-

ing and awareness event of the year.Wehada wonderful day on Saturday,” says Pillay.Cape Mental Health is South Africa’s old-

est mental health organisation.V For more information visit www.capementalhealth.co.za, contact Cape Mental Health on021 447 9040 or [email protected] or follow @CapeMentalHealth and @CTKiteFest on Twitter.

Kellen and Mika Hoad from St James helped kiter Mari Ware-Lane from Brackenfell launch hergreat white shark kite at the 21st Cape Town International Kite Festival on Saturday.

Ongoing protests in Masiphumelele haveled to disruption at local schools.Theprotests have seenover 200matrics,

who attend Masiphumelele High School,taken to and accommodated at an undis-closed venue by the Western Cape educa-tion department to ensure their safetywhile writing exams.This reportedly follows threatsmade by

protesters.But pupils travelling to other schools

have also been affected, with pupils re-portedly facing intimidation against at-tending school.Fish Hoek High School has made ar-

rangements to accommodate matricsfrom Masiphumelele writing their examsat the school.“Studying has been extremely difficult

under the circumstances,” says schoolspokespersonSherri Bell. “Wehave foundalternative accommodation for matricsliving in Masi. We have also been instru-mental in finding safe homes for Masi-based matrics from Ocean View High

School and Simon’s Town High School.”Ocean View High principal Keith Klein

says attendance of all pupils, not onlymat-rics, has been impacted by the protests.“Our attendance drops by about 20%

when there is a protest. It really has a bigimpact on exampreparation, especially aswe start final exams,” he says.Fish Hoek High has also received dona-

tions from the community and is puttingtogether goodie bags to help matrics dur-ing this period. Donations of stationery,snacks, toiletries and airtime are wel-comed by the school, Bell says.

Roman Rock lighthouse is set to shinebrightly after a refurbishment of its pow-

er supply.A team of engineers from Transnet Ports

Authority installed new solar panels and alarge number of heavy-duty batteries onWednesday last week to replace the olditems that are worn out or malfunctioning,says Simon’s TownHistorical Society chair-person David Erickson.The refurbishment will improve the elec-

tricity supply from the solar panels and alsoincrease the battery storage capacity, sothat there will be amore than adequate sup-ply of electricity to the lamps and rotatingmechanism.“A few months ago, during the long win-

ter nights, the light was failing or extin-guishedwell before dawndue to insufficientstoredelectricity fromthebatteries.Theun-dersea electric cable that formerly poweredthe light from the East Dockyard is nolonger in use,” Erickson explains.

Foundation of rockThe lighthouse was built over 150 years

ago and is considered to be one of only a fewworldwide situated on a rock in the ocean.The lighthouse was designed by Alexan-

der Gordon of the British Lighthouse Au-thority and the cost was estimated at be-tween £3 000 and £3 500 at the time.

The original lantern and lighting systemwas designed by James de Ville of London.The first light consisted of a revolving

platform carrying eight single-wick oilburners, set in polished metallic reflectors.In 1919 an automatic acetylene gas appa-

ratus was installed, together with a newlens. This lens and acetylene burner can beseen on the stoep of the Simon’s Townmuse-um, as the entire lantern was removed in1992 and replaced with a new lightweightglass-fibre reinforced plastic lantern con-

taining low voltage quartz halogen lamps ina rotating array. It was initially powered byelectricity from the East Dockyard via asub-sea cable, Erickson explains.A major modification was made in 1994

when a helicopter landing platform (heli-deck) was established on top of a stainlesssteel tower thatwas firmly bolted to an adja-cent rock. Thehelideck is linked to the light-house by a 13-metre long walkway, whichalso carries a solar panel array, he says.

Hostile landingCarrying out the refurbishment is no easy

feat, Erickson says.“The lighthouse itself is infested with sea

lice due to the birds that flock there – whichalso deposit a significant quantity of guanoon every surface that they can perch on,”he says.Landing at the lighthouse from a boat is

also very hazardous, even in dead calm seasituations.“The normal practice is to use one of the

twin-hulled Namacurra-class boats, whichis aimed at the large rock that supports thehelideck.“The boat is held against the rockwith en-

gines running ahead whilst the men jumpfrom the bow on to the rock (which will bevery slippery due to marine growth) andthen climb up the ladder to the helideck.The equipment will then be manuallyhauled up from the boat,” Erickson ex-plains.

While many children don’t even knowwhat a postage stamp is, a young

Glencairn stamp collector is earning topprizes with her collection.Sara Knight was awarded a silvermed-

al for her presentation on cat-themedstamps at this year’s Junior NationalStamp Show.The 11-year-old was awarded the prize

for best thematic exhibit, even more spe-cial because she had never displayed herstamps before. Although entered into thejunior category, Knight’s display wasdeemed too advanced and was moved tothe general category.The Sunnyvale Primary pupil joined

the local stamp club inApril, andwas lat-er joined by her friend and fellow pupilLelethu Quvile.Quvile was awarded three stars for her

display on African waterfalls, whichhave proved to be very difficult stampsto find.“I like learning about the history be-

hind the stamps,” Quvile says.Both girls collect stamps according to

themes – much easier when stamps areso few and far between – and share a lovefor winter-themed stamps.Knight comes from a long line of stamp

collectors, with her family having manystamps for her to add to her collection.They also collect stamps from the post of-fice and at stamp club meetings.“People don’t think about stamps any-

more. They only know about rubberstamps, not postage stamps,” Knight says ofher peers.

Quvile adds: “They don’t know whatthey’re missing out.”V The local stamp club meets monthly at the FishHoek Library on the third Saturday of every monthat 09:00.

DISRUPTION OFWATER SUPPLY:SUN VALLEY, SUNNYDALE ANDFAERIE KNOWETuesday 10 November 2015

The City of Cape Town’s Water and Sanitation Department will be completing a zero pressuretest on the water supply feeding the Sun Valley, Sunnydale and Faerie Knowe water supply zoneon Tuesday 10 November 2015.

This will result in the disruption of the water supply to these areas from 22:00 until 04:00 thefollowing morning.

The work has been planned carefully to ensure minimal disruption of the water supply in theaffected areas.

For maintenance and upgrading, the water supply network across the city is divided intoreticulation zones which are smaller and much more manageable sections of the largenetwork. This work forms part of the City’s Water Demand Management Plan and willsignificantly reduce the occurrence of pipe bursts and subsequent water losses.

Please store water in clean sealed containers for domestic use during this period.

The City regrets any inconvenience caused.

From whale bones to ancient tools, theFish Hoek Valley Museum has been col-

lecting noteworthy artifacts and caring forthe history of the village for 21 years.The FishHoekValley Historical Associa-

tion began in 1978 and one of its main con-cerns was the need for a museum in whichthe history of the valley, extending fromFalse Bay in the east to the Noordhoek-Kommetjie coastline in the west, could bedisplayed.Over a number of years items of histori-

cal interest were collected and stored in theFish Hoek Library until eventually thetown council gave the Historical Associa-tion the use of a house on the corner of Rec-reation Road and Fifth Avenue.The museum opened in 1994 and houses

a collection of bleached whale bones fromthe timewhenFishHoekwas awhaling sta-tion.There are also artefacts and murals of

Peers Cave, depicting the cave as it musthave been when inhabited by the Khoisan.The cave was excavated in the late 1920s

byVictor Peers and his sonBertie, with theduo finding numerous stone tools and theremains of people. One of thesewas dubbedthe “FishHoekMan”, estimated to be 12 000years old. Photographs of the excavationare also housed in the museum.Photographs tracing the development of

FishHoek fromFishHoek farm,whichwasowned by the De Villiers family, can alsobe found in the museum.Children are encouraged to pose for pho-

tos in the mayor of Fish Hoek’s chair.Themuseum is a privatemuseumand re-

ceives no public funding. It relies heavilyon donations, volunteers and support fromthe Historical Association. Volunteers donot need previous historical knowledge.Chief volunteer Courtney Spence says

the service is highly rewarding.“We meet a wide variety of people. I’m a

former teacher, so I really enjoy when thekids come to the museum.”The museum is growing yearly, Spence

explains.“We’re gradually running out of space.

Many donate itemswhen theymove house,such as old cameras and items from farm-house kitchens,” he says.The museum has a worthy cause – it

makes residents aware of the local historyand teaches people about the buildings ofand famous residents from Fish Hoek.“It’s important to know something about

the place you live.”

Duo has new world albumFrom Switzerland to Cape Town’s “Deep

South”, a world of music will be on stagewhen the albumHeartland is launched at theReeler Theatre in Rondebosch on Saturday14 November.Heartland is the second album from local

world music duo Deep South, made up ofNoordhoek’s Dave Ledbetter and Kalk Bay’sRonan Skillen.The instrumental band draws on the dis-

tinctive sounds of musicians across theglobe. They produced their first album, AWaiting Land, with some of South Africa’stop musicians, but this time round, they’vemoved a step up, by working with some ofEurope’s most sought-after world music mu-sicians.

Outside of Deep South, Ronan and Daveare both formidable musicians in their ownright.

Best known for his session work as a jazzmusician, guitarist and pianist Dave alsofronted the Truly Fully Hey ShooWow Bandin the ’80s and ’90s. Respected among localmusicians, Dave has the unique ability toperform across genres. With Deep South,he’s distilled his vast knowledge of jazz, folk,funk and blues into an acoustic world musicblend. He’s performedwithMiriamMakeba,Ray Phiri, Hein van de Geyn, Sibongile Khu-malo and Jimmy Dludlu, among others.

Multi-instrumentalist Ronan (tabla, per-cussion and didgeridoo) is an enthusiast ofglobal rhythms and known for producing cu-rious sounds and temposwithhis innovativehybrid drumkit. He specialises inworldmu-sic with “groove and a sense of space”. Otherthan Deep South, he’s co-founder of Tonik,the Swiss-SA trio A.Spell and Hot Water. Hehas performed with Rodriguez, JohnnyClegg and Freshlyground, to name a few.Heartland is a dream come true for the

two,whohavebeen admirers of Swedishbas-sist and producer Björn Meyer for years. It

only took a listen to A Waiting Land and abriefmeeting for him to agree to produce andperform on the follow-up album.

TheBern-based artist has featured on hun-dreds of recordings. He recorded and pro-duced Heartland in Switzerland, with thehelp of theSwissArtsCouncil (ProHelvetia).

The album is made up of 10 original piecesthat feature names like Jan Galega Brönni-mann (bass clarinet) of Brinkmanship, Sam-uel Würgler (trumpet and flugelhorn) of Bal-kan band Traktorchester and Fredrik Gille(tambourine, frame drum and percussion).

The musicians opted for a traditional re-cording set-up – all in one room, live, withall its transparency.The result is an honest reflection of some

of Dave’s best compositions to date.Deep South will be launching the album at

the Reeler Theatre at Rondebosch Boys’High School on Saturday 14 November at19:30. They’ll be joined by Joburg-based ex-perimental trumpet player Marcus Wyattand Shaun Johannes, Deep South’s regularbassist, who is also known for his sessionworkwith someof the country’s top jazz acts.The band says listeners can expect an im-

peccable performance of acoustic instru-mental music, set in a landscape of soundwith plenty of space, funky grooves and theodd ghost note.V Tickets for the performance cost R100 each fromQuicket.co.za or R120 at the door. The Heartland albumwill be on sale at the launch.

It’s that time of year when men pack away their razorsand start growing – facial hair, that is.And while grooming your moustache to be the best it

canbe is the aim for thenextmonth, it’s vital to rememberthe reason behind the movement.The simple truth is that it’s not a competition to see

who has the biggest beard.The point of Movember, now an international annual

movement, is to create awareness of men’s health duringthe month of November.Originally to getmen talking about prostate cancer, the

movement has now grown to encompass testicular can-cer, mental health and physical inactivity.This year, men are being encouraged to get moving for

the entire month to tackle the latter.So stop looking in the mirror, round up your friends

and enjoy a friendly game of sport.And instead of bragging over your ’tash while having

a beer with the boys afterwards, take the time to talkabout your health issues.One in every 23 South African men will develop pros-

tate cancer in his lifetime, while testicular cancer re-mains the most common cancer in men.As many as 510 000 men die from suicide globally each

year – which equates to one a minute – and over threemillions deaths each year are attributable to insufficientphysical activity.Growing impressive facial hair is not enough – it’s time

to tell your friends why you’re growing a moustache.Instead of just admiring each others’ hair growth, it’s

time to dealwith the big issues: Share your personal expe-riences of stress, anxiety and depression and open upabout your struggles with weight loss.It’s time to talk about the fear you felt at visiting the

doctor and encourage each other to get regular medicalcheck-ups.

Heart needs hopeI sit with a heavy heart at what hasbeen going on the past few weeks inMasiphumelele and the surroundingcommunities. When the first sceneopened up and the community asked forbetter policing, we all agreed. And therequest was heard. In fact, we havenever seen so many police in one placein the history of the southern peninsula.Then people started being hunted

down and burnt alive. Rocks and petrolbombs were thrown, cars and boats setlight and houses burnt to the ground.Thousands of lives have been negative-

ly affected by these actions – not just inMasiphumelele, but in all the surround-ing areas as well. Children are trauma-tised, breadwinner mothers lost theirjobs, businesses were closed down and sowere schools. We will only see the realdamage early next year when people goto bed hungry and are unable to buyschoolclothes.Sooner or later we are going to have

to “fix things up again”, but I havenoticed two problems:Firstly, what people say. Two thousand

years ago a man named James made acomparison between the tongue and asmall spark that had the ability to set agreat forest on fire. Every day I hear ofpeople spewing hatred and lies on socialmedia. The effects of the rumours anduninformed theories of what is going on,are going to be around for many moreyears. In some cases it is plain irrespon-

sible. The law is undermined whenwell-meaning people take the side of analleged criminal. We can never condonebrutal killings, no matter what the causeis. All of our children, from all races,cultures and religions look on and learn.Our words tell them that such behaviouris okay.Secondly, what people do not say. It is

tragic for me to notice that no loudpositive voice has risen above the noise.I long to see pastors and religiousleaders stand up and speak hope. Infairness, I am not on social media, somight have missed all the dialogue. ButI believe that what we need more thanever are leaders who go against thegrain of the usual angry rhetoric. I haveyet to hear anything meaningful from asingle politician.It is not helpful when individuals

politicise these matters. It is equally nothelpful if we simply blame everyoneelse. But this is mostly what I amhearing or seeing wherever I go.What we desperately need now are

individuals from all parts of the south-ern peninsula to get together and, with aclear mind, work at creating an environ-ment where all of us will benefit.It is not just Masiphumelele that needs

to be restored; we must include thebusinesses and communities around usas well.

JOHN KIKILLUS,Soteria Ministries director

‘Insane’ legal system only brings warThere are not enough police availablewhen a boy is raped and killed and awoman attacked and raped, but whenlaw and order is threatened there areplenty at hand.The laws and the justice systems that

are in place need to be seriously lookedat and changed. The policemen andwomen are powerless because they areruled by an insane legal system.The legal system protects the criminal

and attacks the prophet. It has been like

this for a thousand years and more andit’s time to change this insanity. People’slives are being ruled by insane laws andinsane governments everywhere.Nothing will change until we face

what we have created and are willing tochange it. We are all beings of thehuman race and until we stand togetherthere will only be war, whether it’s aboy killed or a nation ruined.

Guy Fawkes– worth it?Recently our neighbourhood has beendisturbed by the sound of firecrackers.This is an annual practice leading up

to Guy Fawkes Day on 5 November, aday that has its origin overseas and tomy mind has no importance in ourcommunities for a number of reasons.For one, already people and the poor

animals are traumatised by the sound offirecrackers as with some you cannotdifferentiate if from gunshots.Another reason on the day is that a

number of children stay away fromschool out of fear that mischievous oneswill smear them with old paint, eggs or,in some cases, dangerous objects betweentheir fingers. They have no regard if theyspoil your clothes or injure you.Last year I witnessed a young parent

with an axe in hand going after someyoungsters because his small child wassmeared as she was standing innocentlyat the gate.The morning after you notice a lot of

paint puddles and other markings on theroad, electric boxes and other council orprivate property, a complete eyesorewhich leads to many rands to “fix”.I know there is a Council bylaw that

prohibits these activities or the selling ofit and that it can happen at certainallocated areas but the law enforcementagencies are under-resourced, not proact-ive and simply don’t have the capacityfor it. People still sell these things atshops or stalls.I think the biggest factor in bringing

this down lies squarely at the feet ofparents.For example, we never bought our

children any toy guns or firecrackers.Admittedly, they are no angels but it wasa conscious decision as responsibleparents so that the positive practice canbe continued when they are parents.I am quite sure that if every parent

decides not to give in, we can lead amuch quieter life during this traumatisedtime.

ed its lead to 5-2 at the top of thefifth innings with hits by JaysonRipepi, Gwyn Petersen and CasleyRipepi. De Gee contributed with asacrifice bunt and Silvertree reliefpitcher Dean Jacobs did not helpby hitting two Westridge hitterswith his pitches.A combination of consistent

A young all-round sportsmanfromPinelands is thePeople’sPost Let’s Play Sport Star for

September and October.Caleb Oliphant (13), who attends

Bishops in Rondebosch, was nomi-nated by his dad Alroy.

“His love for sport started at avery young age and he takes partinathletics, swimming,waterpolo,hockey and rugby.Hehas achievedprovincial honours in water polo,hockey and swimming.

“He plays club hockey for Cen-tral hockey club in Athlone. Thisclub is community-based and hashelped him to improve year-on-year and this is evident as he wasselected with four Bishops playersto representWP this year,” saysAl-roy.

He is a keen student of the gameand is coached at school by formerSA hockey player Murray Ander-son, who represented SA in theOlympics.

His provincial honours in water

polo last year is the result of hiscommitment to swimming. He par-ticipated in the level 3 SAnationalsin Port Elizabeth this year – in the50m and 100m free style. Last year

he was ranked second in the 50mnationally and fifth in the 100m forhis age group, says Alroy.

Caleb says his favourite sport ishockey.

“I have been playing hockeysince I was seven years old. I lovehockey because the feeling of run-ning with the ball, dribblingthrough players and hitting the

ball as hard as you can to score isan amazing feeling. I personallythink it is the best sport.”

He trains two to three times aweek. Because of his all-roundsporting abilities he has received abursary from Bishops.

Caleb says he has many sportingheroes, but his favourite is SAhockey player Lloyd Norris Jones.Caleb has great dreams for the fu-ture.

“By the time I reach matric, Iwould like to have made the WPu.18A hockey side as well as the SAu.18A side; but most important isto make the Bishops u.18A teamfirst.

“After school I would love to at-tend a university like Stellenboschand play for Maties, and work tomake the SA senior men’s teamand compete in the 22nd Common-wealth Games in Durban in 2022.”V If you want to nominate a sport star (between 13 and 18 years old) for November(the last one for the year), send a shortmotivation by email to [email protected].
