UPGRADE: INDOOR FACILITY
Dive in at indoor poolTAURIQ HASSEN
@TauriqHassen
When the Retreat Swimming Pool isreopened, the community will beswimming in the area’s first indoor
facility.A R5m upgrade is planned for the facility,
adding on to the R1.2m that was spent onheating the pool in 2010. The Retreat Aquat-ics Club also received funds from the LottoBoard to have the pool heated.
Ward councillor JanBurger confirms thatcontractors have already been appointedand it is a matter on “signing on the dottedline”.
“The pool has been closed already, be-cause the contractors might start workingnext week, so we do not want to be chasingpeople out of the facility,” he says.
The plan is to enclose the facility and turn
the space into a recognised swimming arenafor clubs to participate in regardless of theweather conditions. The pool has beenclosed since April.
“It was a long and hard process to battlefor finances, but we are so glad there will bea quality swimming facility for the commu-nity.”
The news of an indoor facility has beenmet with much excitement.
Steenberg resident Edith Adams (20) hasbeen swimming professionally for nearlynine years and usually trains at the BlueDowns pool.
She says the Greater Retreat area neverreally catered for the swimming communi-ty, with all the focus placed on sports suchas cricket, rugby and cricket.
“The swimming fraternity will be delight-ed that an indoor facility will be right intheir backyard. It’s sad that most swimmers
choose to go outside the area,” Adams says.“I think it is fantastic and it can be really
exciting for this community.”Swimmer Saliegh Daniels (19) from Lav-
ender Hill is dreams of counting the strokesat the new pool.
He participates in various Iron Man com-petitions, which includes cycling runningand swimming.
Daniels is delighted to hear about the pro-posed new facility.
“An indoor facility for Retreat is muchneeded, because there are definitely swim-mers out therewho could use this facility fortraining purposes,” he says.
“I am really glad to see the City of CapeTown spendingmoney on local facilities.Wecan really benefit from such a facility.”
Retreat Aquatics Club chairperson JoeyJacobs echoes these sentiments, saying he is“ecstatic” about the development. “Thiswill
mean so much to the community; it willmean they can swim throughout the year,”he says.
Swimmers of the club have not been in apool since the closure. “Wewill have to sacri-fice this season, but it’s all for a good cause,”Jacobs says.
“We just need clarity of when the facilityis expected to reopen, but also understandthat logistics need to be sorted out.”
Jacobs adds the City has sent a letter tothe Athlone Swimming Club, recommend-ing that the Retreat swimmers be accommo-dated at theAthlone SwimmingPool inKew-town in the interim.
“It is also important that the residents beinformed of the closure, as I know of kidswho went to the pool and were disappointedwhen they arrived,” Jacobs says.
Details of when the construction periodwould begin were not available.
Bobby Gathoo of Steenberg is a skilledkitemaker who never misses flying hiscreations at the annual Cape Town International Kite Festival. He will besharing his skills at two Swaeltjie kitemaking workshops at this year’s festival. He’ll also be competing in the People’s Post Heritage Kite Award. Seepage 6 for more. PHOTO: ERIC MULLER

Swifter action onvaluation objectionsValuation objections will be dealt withmore efficiently after the City of CapeTown upgraded the software used for thegeneral valuation objection process.
Council’s Valuation Department isworking towards finalising most the objec-tions by the end of December.
It has already processed more than halfof the 33 000 objections received since 1 Ju-ly. Residents are still required to makeproperty rates payments until their objec-tion is finalised.
When an objection to a valuation is re-ceived, the rates account will be flagged toindicate that an objection is in progress.This will temporarily stop any debt man-agement action.
MayoralCommitteemember forFinanceIan Neilson says property owners mustmake monthly payments based on the val-ue assessed by the owner and recorded inthe objection. “Property owners must ap-ply at any of the City’s walk-in centres tomake these alternative payment arrange-ments,” he says.
Neilson says interest will still be raisedon the outstanding debt, while interest andarrears amounts will still reflect on the ac-count.
“If the valuation objection is not decidedin the property owner’s favour, then theamounts short-paid plus the interest willbecome immediately due and payable. Itwould therefore be advisable to pay therates as billed,” he says.
“Where over-payments are made, inter-est will be credited to the owner’s accountwhen the value is finalised.”
Once an objection has been finalised, theobjectorwill be sent an official notice of thedecision by the Municipal Valuer.
Where an objection is not upheld, theowner can appeal to the Valuation AppealBoard.
Members of the board are independentand appointed by provincial government.The boardwill sit as soon as there are suffi-cient appeals.
“Objections are dealt with according totheir location, not according to when theobjection was lodged as this allows for amore efficient process,” Nielson says.
NADINE MOODIE
Should children be spanked or not? Theissue has brought civil society and thenational social development depart-
ment to the discussion table.At issue is whether it should be illegal for
parents to spank their children.This controversial discussion point has
raised questions among parents, religiousgroups and organisations.
Spokesperson for the Department of So-cial Development Lumka Oliphant says nobill has been drafted.
“This has just been a discussion documentbetween organisations advocating chil-dren’s rights, the University of Pretoria andthe department,” Oliphant says.
“We need to protect our children and alsoadvise parents on how to discipline chil-dren. We don’t know where this discussiondocumentwill go (or) if it will become a draftbill and take the legal route.”
Parents themselves raise salient points onthe matter.
All about disciplineParent Ebrahim Davids says at times chil-
dren need a hiding to give them a warning,because that’s how they become obedient.
A parent, who wishes to remain anony-mous, says the government can’t take awayparental rights to discipline their children.
“What will happen when governmenttakes away our rights to discipline our ownchildren?” sheasks. “Timeshave changed somuch and discipline has left our society, be-cause parents can no longer reprimandneighbours’ children.”
A first-time mother, who wants to remainunnamed, says she always knew she’d haveto discipline her children with a hiding.
“Parents should not give up their rightsto discipline children; what will happenwhen these children grow older and are dis-respectful? Schools already have no disci-pline. We can’t afford to lose discipline inour homes, too,” she fumes.
Parental rights lostErrolNaidoo, CEOof theFamilyPolicy In-
stitute, says his organisation opposes theno-tion, because government does not have theright to tell parents how to raise their chil-dren.
“There’s a big difference between abuseand child discipline, andweneedmore disci-pline in schools and inour country,”he says.
“Spanking a child will not harm them; it’sa corrective measure, while hitting to abuseis not discipline. Family is the most impor-tant unit in society and we need to strength-en it. At the moment we have an ill-disci-plined government telling families how toraise children. No government has the rightto do so.”
Sheikh Riad Fataar agrees, saying no gov-ernment has the right to take away parents’rights to discipline a child.
“Islam allows parents to discipline chil-dren with a light beating, which constitutesas discipline. If you hit your child in a man-ner which breaks bones and causes blood toflow, then it’s abuse. The character andmor-als of society is going down because of a lackof discipline,” he says.
‘Not a quick fix’But 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 objectsat children is a formof physical abuse.Forcing themto standin dark corners is acruel form of emo-tional punishment;andwe need to look atways of reducing it,”he says.
“We’ve managed toabolish abuse be-tween adults. Whycan’t we do the samefor children? We needa combination of sup-port for children andparents who need tolearn to cope. Parents often say: ‘I got beatenand look at how I turned out?’ Disciplinedoes not instill values, good behaviour, un-derstanding and consequences.”
Solomons says parents need to set positivevalues and a framework for children, be-cause teenagers start acting violent whenthey see their parents failing to practicewhat they preach.
“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. Thesolution is for children to learn respectthrough observation and to extend the re-course fromwomen to children.They shouldalso be able to lay a complaint which a courtshould investigate to ensure proper justiceis served,” he says.
Different strokesVenecia Barries, director of The Parent
Centre, says her organisation does not agreewith physical punishment. Children need
discipline, love and boundaries, she says.“Parents need to institute pro-active
measures 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. “Noparent is calm when they’re about to hittheir child and that is why Child Line is in-undated 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 need torewrite the already violent history in SouthAfrica by developing anewhistory. This canbe done by training parents to be assertiveand by understanding children.”V Do you spank your child as a form of discipline? Isit effective?

LAVENDER HILL: WARD COUNCILLOR DENIES VICTIMISATION CLAIMS
Battle rages at the hillTAURIQ HASSEN
@TauriqHassen
Claims of victimisation made by a fami-ly at Hillview One informal settlementhave been trashed by the alleged perpe-
trator, Shaun August.Randal Fortune, chairperson of the
Hillview One Residents’ Committee, al-leged ward councillor Shaun August hadvictimised his family.
Fortune claims councillor August hadasked subcouncil to remove his name andthat of his relatives, from the job seekers da-tabase.
All, Fortune says, because he raised a fewpoints about poor service delivery in com-munity.
“I feel as if the matter became really per-sonal and now it has left me worried, be-cause my family and I are not sure whetherwe will be able to receive work,” Fortunesays.
August countered the claims by saying:“I have not said they must not employ thefamily members but have requested thatthe randomisation should take place andnot specific to his (Fortune) family.”
According to the email correspondencebetween Fortune and August, which Peo-ple’s Post has in possession, a request wasmade with the subcouncil to provide namesfrom the settlement randomly and does notstipulate that the Fortunes be scrapped
from the job seeking database.“Nobody is victimising anybody,” Au-
gust says.However, concerns over of poor service
delivery in the community are still rife.One woman, who did not want to be
named, says a number of requests for betterservices in the community have been made.
Much to the disappointment of the locals,“nothing has been done”.
“There are many things that need to beaddressed in this community. We are a verysmall settlement and one would thinkthings can be addressed in no time, but thisis not case,” she fumes.
“Instead, we have to hear about the othercamps getting improved services and theirneeds being attended.”
Poor drainage, filthy toilets, inadequatefencing and lack of cleaning services arehigh up on residents’ list of concerns.
Fortune says numerous “false promises”were made by the City to tackle some of theburning issues.
“People are getting frustrated, becausenothing is happening in our communityand we do keep complaining,” he says.
However, August countered by saying:“We are addressing the problems at thecamp.”
He confirms officials had already beensent to the settlement for a thorough inves-tigations and is awaiting the feedback.
The latest problem tackled by the City
was the lack of refuse bags for the dirt. Theproblem was solved after a tiny delay, asmany of the cleaners had required morebags to pick up the dirt around the tornwaste bags and containers at pick up points.
LOOKING OUT: Randal Fortune, chairperson for the Hillview One Residents Committee, had claims of being victimised waved away by the City.However, he strongly feels the community needs better service delivery and that councillor Shaun August is lacking PHOTO: TAURIQ HASSEN

PEOPLE'S POST | RETREATThursday, 17 October 20134 WORD ON THE STREET
NICOLE MCCAIN AND TAMMY PETERSEN
“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-nal 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 pro-gramme works. People think we’re waitingfor solutions, but we already have one. Thisprogramme analyses the problem and solvesit.”
Community based sentencesSince the project’s launch, 6 000 prisoners
have 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 and recommend-ed to be part of the programme.
Battle behind barsJohn Bower spent three years behind bars
for assault after being involved in a barbrawl in 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 whothought 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 I killeda man who tried to rape me. My life changedthat day. I wasn’t a killer, but I had some-one’s blood on my hands. I was a naughtychild who needed to be disciplined, but in-stead I was fighting for my life surroundedby people who thought absolutely nothing ofsnapping 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, Bowers turnedhis life around.
“I became involved in church activitiesand working with the youth. I am an exam-ple of what prison life does to you. And whileI know I had to pay for my crimes, going tojail was the worst thing that ever happenedto 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 offenders
kept out of prison where they are exposedto hardened criminals, but they also takepart in behavioural courses.
“Prison is not necessary for all offenders.Many offenders can serve their sentence inthe community, while having access tomuch-needed behaviour change services.Prison is an environment not especially con-ducive to rehabilitation and reintegration ofoffenders,” she argues.
“We believe prison should be reserved forhigher-risk offenders and that lower-risk of-fenders can be dealt with via non-custodialsentencing.”
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.V Share your thoughts! Starting with the word “Post”SMS your comments to 32516. SMSes cost R1
Alternative ways to changing criminals

Street kids‘coining it’As peak tourist season looms, beggars
are expected to make more money.Research done by the City of Cape
Town’s social development departmentshows street children are getting as much asR1 600 a day from begging.
This, they say, makes it harder for welfaregroups to get them off the streets and reinte-grated into society.
The research shows that 60% of the peopleliving on Cape Town’s streets are there bychoice. Many had migrated from other partsof the province to the CBD.
Is sharing really caring? Here’s what read-ers had to say.
CERIZE KOETS 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 SAAIMAN encourages giving responsibly. “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.”
DENISE FILANDER finds it hard to believe thatstreet children are making enough money by begging. “Not everyone gives money. Death can comeat any time (and) they need to be in a shelter.”
ALFRED NGWENYA believes in charity. “Not everyone 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.”
ZAINAB KITAS 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.”
CAREL VAN DER SCHYFF 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?”
AMBROSE NAKILE 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.”

FEES: NEW STRUCTURE
New plan for poor schoolsNADINE MOODIE
@nadinemoodie1
Pupils attending school in lower in-come areasmay soon receive a free ed-ucation.
More than 200 impoverished schoolsacross the province have been offered theopportunity to apply to become a no-feeschool from next year.The move is expected to significantly al-
leviate 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 paytheir school fees or have to apply for fee ex-emption, says provincial education minis-ter Donald Grant.“The reality is that we are living in tough
economic times and, in this kind of climate,many parents simply cannot afford to paytheir school fees. This ultimately affectssome schools’ income and places a burdenon the schoolmanagement to find the fundsnecessary to pay for services, equipmentand materials.”Despite initiatives such as financial com-
pensation, the department continues to re-ceive numerous pleas from schools regard-ing the nationally prescribed quintile sys-tem, Grant says.All public schools are categorised into
five groups, called quintiles, largely forpurposes of the allocation of financial re-sources.Quintile one is thepoorest quintile,while
quintile five is the least poor.These poverty rankings are determined
nationally according to the poverty of thecommunity around the school, as well ascertain infrastructural factors.Many schools believe they have been
ranked inappropriately and have asked fortheir quintile status to be changed.Education minister Angie Motshekga
last month announced the department wasplanning to do away with the quintile sys-tem in favour of a two-category system.Until the changes to the current quintile
system become a reality, schools that cur-rently charge annual school fees of R400 orless may apply to become no-fee schools.LavenderHill High School deputy princi-
pal Clifford Kietwit says reviewing thequintile system is an excellent idea asthey’re collect school fees. “We’ve been indiscussion onwhether to apply to be a quin-tile one school, as we’re struggling to get45% of the fees,” he says.Floreat Primary School principal Noel
Isaacs describes the quintile system is “ajoke” as his school is placed in the same cat-egory at affluent schools.“We’re a quintile five school and our fees
are R380, but we don’t even get in 40% ofthe fees. The department is asking us to ap-ply to be one of the 200 quintile one schoolsbut when will we find out if we qualify? Wewill apply, but I’m not going to become tooexcited. School fees are a barrier everyyear, as we fight with parents about fees,”he fumes.Steenberg High School principal André
Kraak says the departmentwill be inundat-ed with applications. “We’ve been catego-rised as a quintile five school, indicatingthat Steenberg is an affluent area. Ourschool fees is R1 323 per year and we have1 300 learners, but we only get 35% of feesannually,” Kraak says.“I will meet with teachers and parents
about applying to be a quintile one school.People are paying taxes to government,who needs to deliver on its promise to pro-vide education, health and housing to peo-ple.”

Club gathers steamAn inspired Grade 2 teacher at
Kannemeyer Primary Schoolin Grassy Park has been going
the extra mile to ensure that pupilsat her school enjoy themagic of read-ing and stories outside classroom.Felicia Watson attended a teachertraining session run by Nal’ibali, anational campaign promoting read-ing for enjoyment,whichwas startedat the Kannemeyer Primary SchoolReading Club born from her passionfor literacy.She now meets with 63 pupils tohelp encourage and grow the samepassion everyWednesday afternoon.Watson says her motivation iswatching her children grow into lit-erate members of society, who enjoy
writing and reading and can use theskills they learn from stories.“Literacyhas amajor role in devel-oping communities. The child hearswords and sounds from the mother’swomb,” she says.“Continuing that experience givesthem a sense of belonging. It helpsthem to make sense of what is hap-pening in and around them. Literacyis a communication tool.”Watson, together with WesternCapeNal’ibaliClustermentor,DavidJeffery, has developed an innovativeresponse to the lack of books – a bor-rowing system.Children may borrow books fromthe reading club, like at a library.During the weekly reading club
sessions, the pupils write poetry,read and play word games developedby the Project for the Study of Alter-native Education in South Africa, aco-founder of theNal’ibali campaign.“I’ve seen children becoming in-terested in reading because I readaloud to them every day,” Watsonsays.“They are confident speaking to anaudience, they make connections,and they confidently choose differ-ent texts to read.

Rifead wastaught by his father, masterkite-maker Ebrahim Sambowho, in turn, had learnt fromhis own father.As is the case with manycontemporary Cape Townkite-makers, this particularstyle of kite harks back to theslaves and immigrants fromSouth East Asia who came tothe Cape centuries ago.South African kiter GregMountjoy was first to makethe connection between theSwaeltjie kites he saw at theannual Cape Town Interna-tional Kite Festival and tra-ditional kites he had seen inIndonesia and Malaysia.“When I spoke to the kiters
they had all been taught howtomake their kites by familymembers. Worldwide, kite-making is oftena skill passeddown through generations –it’s history in the air,”Mountjoy said.This historical aspect tiesin beautifully with the kitefestival’s theme which cele-brates the centenary of thefestival’s organisers andbeneficiary – Cape MentalHealth.Every participant will begiven a certificate and cashprizes are up for grabs: R500for first, R300 for second andR200 for third.The overall winner will al-so receive the People’s PostHeritage Kite Award float-ing trophy.

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 aworldwithout dis-crimination: Building on the experience and knowledgeof people in extreme poverty.One wonders how this mouthful will, in fact, eradi-
cate poverty, feed the hungry, secure jobs for the un-employed, get medicine to the sick and dying, and suc-cessfully 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
together in the ethos of the theme to step up and becommitted 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 2 000 years ago, the Bible in Ephe-sians warned: “Do not get drunk as it leadsto debauchery.”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 treataccident victims and not the intoxicateddriver as a priority.The provincial health department should
through ethical interpretation prioritisetheir spending. This infers fewer resourcesto heal criminals who shoot each other regu-larly and more resources for taxpayers whorequire dialyses.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. Thoseunwilling 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.

Milano: cost of using sports facilityIt is right what they did to Milano United(“Milano United booted from Rooikrans sta-dium”, People’s Post, 24 September).The chairman of the club, Nasief Brenner,
treated Rooikrans Sports Complex as if itwas their private property. Rooikrans be-longs to all.He took it upon himself to deny people en-
try.NAZEEM SONDAY,

It’s time to thinkbefore you voteIn 2014 we (will be) summoned to the votingstations to make our crosses and, hopefully,vote intopower the right political partywithrighteous politicians.Since our country’s democracy a lot of po-
litical policies andpromises have passedun-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.We voters have to be realistic (and) criti-
cal 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 contractwith 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.”

Sean Ferrier, Milano United media andpublic relations officer, responds:(Nazeem) Sonday’s claim regarding ourchairperson denying people entry toRooikrans is untrue and deeply frowned up-on.It is the very same chairperson who, out
of goodwill, arranges free buses and sup-porters’ T-shirts for the majority of our sup-porters for Cape Town derby matches.
Sonday’s claims are as a direct result ofMilano having to request for entry fee con-cessions for our playing and managementteams from the South Peninsula Local Foot-ball Association (SPLFA) for (a) particularmatch.Milano does not benefit from any gate tak-
ings and we support donations to the SPL-FA. Sonday and the public in attendancewere requested to pay the entrance fee of R5,which he paid with discontent.The club received awarning from the Pre-
mier Soccer League as a result of abusivelanguage by Sonday directed at players(and) match officials.We will gladly invite Sonday to meet with
the club directly to resolve any furthergrievance.The club would like to state Son-dayhas attendedall ourmatcheswithout be-ing denied entry.

Athletes run for 24 hoursLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
Howling winds, torrential rain and bit-ing cold could not stop 35 young ath-letes from completing 24 hours of con-
tinuous running.HeathfieldHighSchool hosted its third an-
nual 24-Hour Marathon event last weekend,with the group of pupils running from 14:00on Friday to 14:00 on Saturday.The school hopes to eventually take on the
Guinness World Record, says principalMark Engelbrecht.“We are looking at a substantial distance
covered by these children,” he says.“The idea is to eventually tackle the Guin-
ness World Record. We hope it will happenin the next two to three years.”The world record currently stands at
420km in 24 hours, while the school’s recordis 316km set in 2012.For two months the school’s team trained
twice a week in preparation of the event.Though exams and winter sports made
preparations difficult, they went into therun hoping to reach 340km to break the pre-vious school record.In the end, they finished only 7km shy, on
309km.Wesley Neuman, teacher and athletics
coach at Heathfield High, says the weathermade things tough.“The conditions were poor. It was raining
and we had a thunderstorm between 02:00and 06:00 on Saturday morning. We did wellamid the conditions,” he says.Around 15 of the runnerswhoparticipated
were novices, while the rest were seasonedathletes from the school’s athletics team.In recent years Athletics has grown to be
the school’s main sport, with the athleticsteam finishing third in the schools’ athleticsA-section for the last two years.“Four years ago we were in the doldrums,
right at the bottom. Now we are competingwith the top schools like Steenberg andMon-dale,” Neuman says.“We finished third and beat our biggest ri-
vals South Peninsula. Athletics (at theschool) is on the up; we just need to carrythe momentum through.”Although the runners could not emulate
the athletics team’s performances, theschool still succeeded in raising fundsthrough the event.Each of the 35 runners was required to
raise R500 and Target Projects, one of theevent’s sponsors, also donated R30 for everykilometre completed.Nueman says the money will be used for
sports development at the school and sportsequipment. Some fundsmayalso be set asidefor a lawnmower or for the installation of airrigation system.Nueman says they may cut the number of
participating runners to 30 next year, as theworld record was set with only 30 runners.

Surfing development and transformation isset to receive a boost when the sixth annualBOS Earthwave Beach Festival takes placethis weekend.The festival will feature several water-
sport competitions, lifestyle events and en-tertainment. People’s Post is the print mediasponsor of the event.However, the most important event could
be 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 he hopes
the event will offer the programmes a help-ing 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 participate
in the Challenge are Isiqalo, the Surf ShackOutreach Programme, the MuizenbergBeach Club and Dreams to Reality.All four organisations aim to assist youths
from disadvantaged communities throughsurfing. The tournament will feature twoteams from each organisation competing intwo heats of four teams each. Four teamswill then advance to two hour-long semi-fi-nals and the competition will climax in ahour-long final. The event is sponsored andsupported by Surfing South Africa (SSA).SSA general manager Robin de Kock says
the 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 the sport,”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 sometimenow. It’s something thatwe see as bene-fiting surfing. We want to transform thesport and introduce children frommarginal-ised and disadvantaged backgrounds.”Earthwave will also see several school
teams 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 from
Boland to join us as well,” Botha says.Each team will have five members.The festival will also feature skateboard-
ing and stand-up paddling competitions andan 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 nowbeen cancelled.How-ever, the People’s Post Touch Rugby Tourna-ment will still take place.The BOS Earthwave Beach Festival will
take 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.

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.
