Over 1500 children were exposedto the Toy Library, which waspart of the National Book Weekheld at theRed LocationMuseumin New Brighton from Septem-ber, 6 to 8. General Motors SouthAfrica sponsored the Toy Li-brary which was an integral partof this initiative.

With 75% of what children willlearn in their lifetime being learntby the age of two, the Toy Libraryserves as an educational stimula-tion with special focus on founda-tion skills for literacy, mathematicsand scientific thinking for youngchildren whose families are livingin poverty.

During the three days that thisevent was held, thousands of chil-dren moved through the Magic Tentwhich housed the Toy library,Reading Section and Poetry Sec-tion. Heleen Johnson, Director ofActive Learning Libraries SouthAfrica said, “The response wasoverwhelming and the reason for

this was that the event was held inan informal settlement therefore itwas more accessible for the kids toreach the venue. There are no sportgrounds or safe playing spaces inthe New Brighton area so the ToyLibrary offered them a safe and se-cure area where they can come andplay and learn in a fun and excitingenvironment”.

“The sponsorship from GeneralMotors enabled the Active Learn-ing Libraries to bring this Toy Lib-rary to the children in the EasternCape. We found that the childrenhad no basic skills like sortingshapes but they appear to have a lotof potential”, said Johnson.

Nandipha Moyakhe, GMSA em-ployee, who volunteered at the ToyLibrary on Saturday said, “It isamazing to see how the kiddies gotexcited about fitting shapes and siz-es together. They realised that it isnot so difficult and were very proudto show off their make believe ob-jects to the rest of the volunteersand staff.”

Central transformed in huge obstacle and festival ground for Urban RunMICHAEL ZOETMULDER

PORT ELIZABETH’S Central dis-trict is set to come alive this week-end for the third annual NelsonMandela Bay Herald Urban runwhich will see the area and its his-torical buildings transformed intoone big obstacle course and festivalground.

The Urban Run is hosted by theMandela Bay Development Agencyto draw people back to the CBD andhave great fun whilst raising fundsfor local charities with a target ofover R100 000.

Apart from the over 1 000 partici-pants who will be taking to thestreets tackling the obstacles, the

Donkin Reserve will also be turnedinto a festival ground with activitiesfor young and old.

“Our aim is not only to bring peo-ple to the completed MBDA projects,but also to expose the CBD to peoplethat have not been in the CBD fora number of years owing to the per-ception of crime and grime,” saidPierre Voges CEO of the MBDA.

“For the MBDA it is about mak-ing the completed MBDA projectscome alive. Urban renewal is not on-ly about design and infrastructureimplementation, but also about se-curity, cleanliness and the resultinggrowth in pride, real estate confi-dence, art, sport, heritage and cul-ture, amongst others.”

According to Voges, one of their

aims is to bring life back to the city,in terms of people living, workingand enjoying the city surroundings,and the Urban Run is an effort inthis respect.

“2011 saw the first event with 400entries and very good exposure onSupersport. This year we will have1200 athletes and a much biggerevent, in terms of activities and ex-posure. I have no doubt it will growinto a serious event, not only on thelocal sporting and events calendar,but also on the national calendar,”said Voges.

This 10.5km obstacle race is ratedas one of the most exciting events onthe local calendar. The Scouts ofNelson Mandela Bay have beenhard at work to ensure that they

construct the most challenging ob-stacles.

There will be 15 obstacles alongthe course which starts and finisheson the Donkin Reserve beneath thegiant flag. Participants are all re-quired to raise funds for the UrbanRun charities with four differentlevels of incentives being offered,depending on the donations raised.

A weekend of family fun and ex-citement is planned with an expoand entertainment on the DonkinReserve between 9am and 5pm onSaturday.

African Drumbeat provides a cel-ebration of rhythm and musicthroughout the day with fun for thekids as they build musical instru-ments from junk.

A ‘junk 4 funk’ workshop is beingheld in the Rotary Club of PE Sun-rise Kids’ Zone between 10am and11am whereafter kids can buildtheir own junk 4 funk instrumentsbetween 1.30pm and 2.30pm.

Kids also get to enjoy a fun inter-active drumming and Zulu dancinglesson between 3pm and 4pm. Excit-ing exhibitors, food and craft ven-dors and numerous sporting activi-ties for the kids will fill the day.

NELSON Mandela Bay is on thevergeof startinganewpublictrans-portsystemwhichisviewedasasig-nificant step towards making it aworld-class city.

A pilot project to kick-start the Inte-grated Public Transport System (IPTS)will be implemented as early as Octo-ber. According to Nelson Mandela BaySeniorTechnicianandIPTSexpert,Lu-vuyo Ntshebe, the overhaul of the cur-rent “poor, separate and uncoordinat-ed” system will take place at the begin-ning of next year.

The metro will use 50 buses thatwere bought with funding from the De-partment of Transport just before the2010 Fifa Soccer World Cup. The busesare currently standing idle and gather-ing dust.

Speaking to the religious fraternityat the City Hall in Port Elizabeth onThursday as part of the metro’s con-sultative strategy meetings to varioussectors, Ntshebe said the metro wasreadytostart thesafe,quick,affordableand efficient system.

“All the role-players in the transportsector have been consulted and agreed

to be part of the process that is meantto benefit and empower residents of themetro,” said Ntshebe.

Thesystemwhichusesmedianlanesand enclosed median route stations ontrunk corridors is aimed at taking themetro forward. According to Ntshebe,it is aimed at reducing transport con-gestion by making more people use acost-effective public transport system.

This, added Ntshebe, will combat en-vironmental impact and reduce globalwarning - something good for futuregenerations.

According to Ntshebe, this is the sys-tem originally known as BRT whichwas tried and tested in countries likeBrazil and Colombia. He said South Af-rica modified the system however,with the inclusion of the taxi industrywhich plays a pivotal role in the trans-port sector.

“Government has assured everyonethat there will be no loss of jobs and in-come as a result of the system,” said Nt-shebe.

Religious leaders asked many ques-tions like whether the fares would beexorbitant for the unemployed andpoor; and whether there would be dis-counts for the elderly, children and thedisabled. Ntshebe said all will be ca-tered for fairly in the new system.

andwatch this tournament and havetherefore decided that the event willbe free of charge,” said sensei Maxa-ma.“The style (kyokushin) is not very

well-known, sowe are trying to popu-

larise it by attracting more people tothe tournament. This is a real thingand people will have to pay for thenext event.”The NMMU Kyokushin partici-

pant Lizeka Senti (19), who holds aBrownBelt, is looking forward to thetournament, she told PE Express In-daba. “This is our last major tourna-ment of the year,” said the PublicManagement Degree student.First Dan Black Belt Senpai Bon-

gani Mngaza (23) also of NMMU Ky-okushin will, however, miss thetournament. “I did not have enoughtime to train for the event. We havebeen working hard on our final yearproject; so for me this one’s a miss,”said Zwide Township born Mngazawho now resides in Humewood.He said he was only preparing for

the University Sports of SA (USSA)tournament which will be held inUniversity of Johannesburg (UJ) inthe first week of December.“NMMU will be going to defend

NELSON Mandela Bay boxing Promoters andManagers had a very fruitful meeting whichwas held at Sizakele Konzi Community Hall inKwaNobuhle, Uitenhage last Wednesday.Boxing South Africa (BSA) Service Provider

Mthunzi Mapitiza said boxing licensees (man-agers and promoters)met to discuss issues thataffect their operations in so far as their adher-ence to the prescripts of the Boxing Act.The meeting was called by the boxing pro-

moters.“We have a commitment to provide boxing

lovers with good shows but the relationship weenjoy with boxing managers sometimes rob us

of that opportunity. That’s why we called themeeting,” said Mbulelo Mfama, head of NyusaBoxing Promotions.Asked to explain, Mfama said promoters

found itwrong formanagers to tell their boxersnot to fight for certain promoters orworse still,for managers to tell their boxers to pull out offights.This was seen during Gladys “Noforty”

Tsenene’s last development tournament atBabsMadlakaneCommunityHall inUitenhageabout amonth ago, arguedMfama.Mfama saidmanagers and promoters agreed that when aboxer signed a contract for a fight, a boxermusthonour the contract, otherwise pulling out killsthe tournament.“We also looked into the idea of promoters

bringing fighters from other provinces to fightfor the title here - and agreed that at this stage,we got only Makhosonke Zwengu and UnathiJacobs approved to fight for the SA titles - allotherboysgot their chancesand lost,” saidMfa-ma.Mapitiza who was invited in the meeting as

anobserver thanked thepromoters for the initi-ative - themeetingwas likeaworkshop,he said.“The meeting helped to iron out issues that

were very important to both the managers andpromoters in their liaison with boxers, saidMapitiza.Other issues thatgot theattentionof theman-

agers and promoters were the ranking of localboxers in the provincial ratings as well as theusage of the ring.
