At the Omuramba station, commuters will be able to change over to the TO4 route that will operate between Dunoon, Montague Gar- dens and Century City,” he explains. The new route will integrate the rail and MyCiTi bus service so that commuters can easily change between the two modes of transport to reach their destinations, Her- ron says. “This is important if we want commuters to opt to use public transport instead of pri- vate vehicles. Seamless integration at Mait- land train station has been incorporated in this feeder service design,” he explains. The introduction of the MyCiTi service will boost the development of the area, says Gene Lohrentz, manager of Geocentric which runs the Maitland Improvement Dis- trict. “The new route will link Maitland with the rest of the service and will provide another optional mode of transport for those who live and work in the area,” he says. “This will add to the development of the area. Formalised, well-structured and or- dered transport is very important for the growth of Maitland.” The second phase of the transport plan will provide the remaining services within the West Coast corridor to ensure a full com- plement of public transport services. Servi- ces will run between Dunoon, Montague Gardens, Century City, Summer Greens, Edgemead, Richwood and Maitland. “These communities will now also have easy access to the MyCiTi service which will connect them to Century City and Montague Gardens,” Herron says. Construction is planned to start in the first quarter of next year.

ENVIRONMENT

Nature reserves gain partnersMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

The formation of committees to overseeprotected areas across Cape Town hasbeen tabled.

Reports sent to several subcouncils acrossthe southern suburbs called for councillorsto be nominated for these new committees.The report covers 17 nature reserves and

natural environments across the city and in-cludes popular sites like Zandvlei EstuaryNature Reserve, False Bay Nature Reserve,Wolfgat Nature Reserve and the Edith Ste-phens Nature Reserve.According to a report tabled at the sub-

councilmeetings theProtectedAreaAdviso-ry Committees (PAAC) exist to facilitate aparticipative approach in the managementof protected areas and to represent all stake-holders.The committees’ objectiveswill be to facil-

itate interaction between the managementof these areas and the surrounding commu-nities and to develop strategic partnerships.The report also says the committees will

aim to serve as a communication channeland assist with the implementation of man-agement plans.The committees will be statuary bodies

formed under the National EnvironmentalManagement Act.According to the report the constitution of

the PAAC was finalised in November andpublic participation for nominations closedin March.According to the constitution, the commit-

tees are advisory bodies rather than deci-sion-making bodies.Theywill consist of communities, council-

lors, ward communities and user groups.Theymay also include other affected and in-terested parties such as academic and re-search institutions, nature-based recreationbodies and tourism stakeholders.Themembers of each committeewill serve

a three-year term after which theirmember-shipwill be reviewed and the City can eitherrenew or terminate their membership andrequest new nominations.The PAAC will have a maximum of 20

members and a minimum of six.The report recommends two councillors

be nominated to serve on the committeeswhich fall in their respective subcouncil are-as.In the South Peninsula subcouncil coun-

cillors Dave D’Alton and Elton Jansen werenominated to serve on the Zandvlei EstuaryNature Reserve committee. CouncillorsShaun August and Patricia van der Rosswere nominated to serve on the False BayNature Reserve committee.In the Rondevlei subcouncil, councillors

Marita Petersen and Clive van der Merwewere also nominated to the Zandvlei Estu-ary Nature Reserve committee.In the Mitchell’s Plain subcouncils, coun-

cillors Sheval Arendse, Daniel Christians,MariaWeavers and LungileMaci were nom-inated to serve on the Wolfgat Nature Re-serve committee.According to the resolutions for subcoun-

cil 15, councillors Bernadette le Roux and

Patrick Chapplewill serve on the committeefor Table Bay Nature Reserve.Rondevlei subcouncil manager Okkie

Manuels says councillors Thembinkosi Pu-pa and Andile Dube were nominated for theEdith Stephens Nature Reserve committee.

These DJs spin good deedsDance the night away and do some goodwhile you’re at it.This is the idea behind Sound of the Sub-

urbs,whichhosts events encouragingmusiclovers to give to those inneedwhile partyingto some of Cape Town’s hottest DJs.It all startedwhen founderandDJThomas

Dodds went to fetch a jacket from his roombefore a night out.He suddenly thought of all those living on

the streets without the simple luxury ofclothing or blankets. He decided to giveback.

First partyRun by Dodds, art director and photogra-

pher Bianca Schwerin and events coordina-

tor Alex Labia, the group’s first party lastyear asked the simple entry fee of a bag ofclothes, blankets or tinned food.The proceeds – 20 black bags full of cloth-

ing, 50 blankets and four boxes of tinnedfood – were donated to the Haven NightShelter.

Helping the homeless“The idea is that in somewaywe accumu-

late funding or clothing, blankets and foodfrom each event and donate it to a charitywhose main focus is helping the homelessor those that are experiencing terrible pov-erty,” explains Schwerin.The second event took place at theAssem-

bly in April, with a cover charge going to-wards a R20 000 donation to the Carpenter’sShop, which offers homeless people ablu-tion facilities and vocational skills train-ing.The music industry has taken enthusias-

tically to the concept, Schwerin says, withDJs such as Haezer, Das Kapital, Grime-house, Niskerone and Hyphen taking to thedecks during the events.

“Ourmain idea was about DJs coming to-gether to create change. At the same time,our purpose would change the light inwhichDJs and the nightlife industry are of-ten seen,” she explains.“The nightlife industry often gets labels

with negative connotations such as drugs,sex and alcohol abuse.Wewant to show theworld that it is exact-

ly the opposite of that, that the nightlife in-dustry is associated with people who havegood hearts and will go out of their way toput together a party that is about givingback.”

Future eventsSounds of the Suburbs is now planning

even “bigger and better” events, Schwerinsays.“Weare planning onhostingmany events

in our near future which will be targetedat different audiences.For now, we want to help our immediate

communities, butwe are also aware that ex-treme poverty and homelessness is a globalissue,” she says.

Pupils learn about ubuntuNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Maitland pupils are learning why andhow to say no to xenophobia.Pupils at Koeberg Primary re-

ceived an educational talk by the Cape TownRefugee Centre and representatives of theUnited Nations High Commission for Refu-gees on Thursday last week.About 60% of pupils at the school are for-

eigners, says principal Shanaaz Majiet.“Some of these families are very needy

and it’s a challenge to provide for their basicneeds,” she says.The school provides meals through a feed-

ing scheme for 250 children and sources do-nations of school supplies.Girls are also in need of sanitary pads, as

many stay away from school during men-struation, Majiet explains.This is being addressed in partnership

with the Cape Town Refugee Centre. Girlswill receive donations of sanitary pads, saysFrederick Mitchell, education departmentdistrict HIV spokesperson.The educational programme, consisting of

eight workshops, is a first of its kind, hesays.TheCentre’s speaker, PhaladiKotsie, says

it is important to educate children about

xenophobia from a young age, especially atschools with a large number of refugee pu-pils.“Xenophobia is an unnecessary fear and

it’s important to promote a spirit of ubuntu,”he says.Majiet hopes the workshops will not only

see more girls attend school, but will alsoempower children.“This ties in with our anti-bullying cam-

paign launchedat thebeginningof this term.Wewant children to understand that despitetheir race, they are all unique as childrenand are here to be educated,” she says.

Grade 7s testreading skillsGrade 7 pupils are to compete in areading competition at librariesacross the city.The seventh annual reading compe-

tition includes 73 libraries and thou-sands of pupils.Participating schools hold elimina-

tion rounds to qualify for the districtreading competitions.The winners from the library

rounds advance to the district rounds,then on to the finals.Only 18 pupils will make it to the fi-

nals.The library rounds are set to end in

August, with the final scheduled forSeptember.They are competing in each of the

three official languages in theWesternCape, explains Belinda Walker, may-oral committee member for communi-ty services and special projects.Pupils who are interested in partici-

pating must approach their schools,who in turn can liaise with their locallibraries for details.The reading competition was origi-

nally developed and implemented inone library, but now boasts partici-pants from libraries across the city.

WALMER ESTATE

Cafe ‘takes a break’Much has changed since Sopallie Allie

opened his shop inWalmer Estate in1962.

The Latvan Cafe has withstood a changeof regimes, has seen families come and gofrom the suburb and has stayed put evenas prices have escalated.When the shop first opened, a carton of

cigarettes cost R1.60. A 2F Coke was only10c.Allie has kept soft drink bottles from the

early days of the shop, amassing a uniqueselection.“A man even came from Coca-Cola in

America to see my collection,” Allie says.As he prepares to retire, he is looking for

a buyer to love the shop as much as he has.“I’m looking for a good buyer to sell to,”

he says. “Thebusiness is goodandgoodpeo-ple come to the shop.”Allie opened the shop when he was just

18 years old, learning all the tricks of thetrade as he went along.

“I learnt on the job,” he tells.Allie later bought the property on the cor-

ner of Perth and Chester roads, which hehas now put on the market.“It’s time to take a break,” he says.But he will miss his regular customers,

especially the children from the nearbyschools.“I’m going to miss the love from my cus-

tomers and the children, who I enjoy hav-ing in the shop,” he says.Regular customer Shirley Adams says

the community will miss Allie’s friendlyface.“The shop is always clean, neat and tidy.

The service is excellent and I’m very disap-pointed it will be closing. Never once didMr and Mrs Allie have a long face thatwould chase customers away!” she says.But despite the many years in the trade,

Alliemaintainshehasno favourite custom-er.“They’re all my favourite!” he says.

Cheap fire siren afirst for shacksNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

You can be part of installing 3000 fire de-tection devices in informal homesacross the country.

This as Lumkani, a technology start-upthat has designed and deployed fire detec-tion devices in informal set-tlement communities,launches a crowd-fundingcampaign this month.

The social enterprise firmhas created a fire detectiondevice aimed at shack dwell-ers which detects an in-crease in heat instead ofsmoke.

Lumkani wants to lessenthe loss of life and propertycaused by dangerous fires ininformal settlements, says fi-nancial director DavidGluckman.

“We wish to increase thesafety and security of mil-lions, if not hundreds of mil-lions, of people across the globe who live atrisk of slum fires,” he says.

The productwas invented after a devastat-ing fire in Khayelitsha on New Year’s Dayin 2013.

The blaze, which displaced thousands ofpeople,was a catalyst for researchanddevel-opment, Gluckman says.

“This early warning detection system hasits roots in an engineering Honours thesisof Francois Petousis at UCT.

“The tragic event brought together a mul-tidisciplinary team that would bring theoryinto reality to help mitigate the loss of lifeand property associated with the rampantspread of shack fires,” he says.

The device costs R120 and the battery willlast between one and two years.

Lumkani uses heat detection technologywhich is proven to be the most effective atsensing fires in already smoky environ-ments, Gluckman explains.

“The in-shack heat detector will ringwhen a fire is detected, enabling the familyin the home to respond proactively and pos-sibly extinguish the fire,” he says.

If this is not the case, thedevice will then trigger alldevices within a 100m rangeof itself, using transmissiontechnology, to create a com-munity-wide alert.

“This will serve to proact-ively alert people of the dan-ger to either assist in con-taining the fire, or savingfamilymembers andbelong-ings,” he says.

The company sold 850 de-vices between its launch inNovember last year and theend of January.

“Lumkani has already de-tected two fires which thecommunity has verified

would have displaced many people, had thenetwork effect of the devices not taken placeand created a community-wide response tothe fire,” he says.

“The critical challengewewant to addressis both the personal safety aspect of one’sfamily in the home as well as the spread ofthe fire to the surrounding community.”

The company recentlywon the SouthAfri-can rounds of the Chivas Regal Win theRight Way Campaign, and as part of this arelaunching the crowd-funding campaign thismonth. The campaign will work in tandemwith The Venture website. The more votesthe company gets on this site, the bigger theshare of $250 000 funding Lumkani will re-ceive.V Visit www.lumkani.com for more information.

ONLINE EDUCATION

Study can nowalso start in JuneUCT has announced it will offer a mid-

year intake in its online advanced di-ploma.

This has been made possible through its“Across Africa” partnership with leadingonline education company GetSmarter.The partnership successfully launched its

first online advanced diploma in businessproject management and a postgraduate di-ploma in management in marketing in Feb-ruary.Strong demand for these diplomas result-

ed in applicant numbers far exceeding tar-gets, attractingmore than 1500 applications,leading to 460 enrolments.Tomeet this demand, UCT has announced

that it will be launching a mid-year intakeof students for the advanceddiploma inbusi-ness project management. This extra pro-gramme starts in June.Across Africa MD Jacques Rousseau says abenefit of online education is its flexibility:“You can study when and where you like, solong as you complete tasks on time.”“With a mid-year intake for the advanced

diploma,we increase that flexibility further.Some working professionals might find thattheir workflow suits a February start, butfor others, that might be the busiest time oftheir year. They would now be able to startthe course in June instead,” he says.GetSmarter CMO Ryan O’Mahoney says

online education is clearly filling a gap inprofessional education.“15%ofSouthAfrica’s school leaverswere

accommodated at tertiary education institu-tions last year, which means over 2 millionSouth Africans aged between 18 and 24 arenot currently enrolled in tertiary educa-tion,” he says.Only 1.7% of our population completes a

university education, he says.Now, with postgraduate programmes be-

ing offered online, students can access quali-ty, top-tier education from one of Africa’sleading universities.Access to postgraduate programmes is al-

so often hampered by prospective studentsnot having completed bachelors degrees.However, Across Africa offers a solution

to this in the form of an online recognitionof prior learning (RPL) course.This involvesa two-week assessment of readiness for post-graduate study, and is offered cheaply to stu-dents who do not have a tertiary qualifica-tion.More than 400 students are currently en-rolled in UCT’s first online postgraduatequalifications. Although the course work ispresented online through GetSmarter’s vir-tual learning environment, postgraduatestudents have access to all of UCT’s resour-ces such as the computer labs and online li-braries.Rob Paddock, chief academic officer at

GetSmarter, says it’s encouraging to see somany universities responding to this oppor-tunity and actively exploring the provisionof online and distance education pro-grammes.Sam Paddock, CEO of GetSmarter, has a

vision for the future of online learning inSouth Africa.“Today’s fast-paced, ever-changing work-

place is hyper competitive. For previousgenerations of workers, university pro-grammes would set them up for a successfullife-long career,” Paddock says, adding that“today’s knowledge workers have no suchluxury.V Visit www.getsmarter.co.za/postgraduate or call021 447 7565 to learn more.

What does it mean to be a man?A few decades ago, masculinity meant working hard to

earn an honest living and provide for your family.It meant leading your family in such a way that they

would follow your example.Masculinity meant protecting your family because you

loved them.But today, our ideas of masculinity have become

warped. We pressurise young men to earn big money, tolead fast lives and to achieve their goals no matter thecost. We have thrown family values out the window,replacing them with the images we see on TV.An honest living has been replaced by earning a quick

buck.Leadership has been replaced by dominance.Protection has been replaced by violence.Many young men today have little idea of the values

needed to raise a family, support their community orbuild a career.We can hardly blame them, with so many children

raised by single mothers.With no father figures to teach young boys how to be-

have, can we be surprised when they turn to crime andgangsterism or become abusive?The only providers they see are gangsters. Leadership

and protection have given way to domestic violence andsubstance abuse.Teaching boys to be responsible men is a task single

mothers cannot do alone. It needs the buy-in of the com-munity.Young boys need to see the men in their communities

as an example of responsible men, men who provide forand protect their families.They need to see men rolling up their sleeves and be-

coming involved with the community, imparting lessonsand providing an example to follow.

It’s time to call inthe presidentThis past weekend our community wasonce again in mourning as we laid torest four youngsters shot and killed inthe prime of their youth.Over the past few months we have

buried so many young people, all thevictims of gang warfare. Across ourcommunity boundaries we see andhear of the same – the killing of youngpeople, children and innocent citizens.As community leaders and organisa-

tions and service providers we havedone our utmost best to stem thisterrible wave of gang warfare in ourcommunities and on the Cape Flats.We have had peace marches, protest

marches, picketing, church services,imbizos, meetings . . . and so theendless list goes on.At most of these valiant attempts

and initiatives we had the minister(s),government officials and departmentspresent. We are presented (and bom-barded) with proposals and pro-grammes, all worth millions of rands,but still the bullets continue to fly,still people are dying, still our commu-nities are being held hostage by aminority group of thugs.

The reality is that the police arelosing ground. The enemy have more“resources” in funds, weapons andmanpower.It is time for the national govern-

ment and our president to step in. It’stime to put political differences aside,listen to the plight of our people andsend in the SANDF.It’s time to secure our communities,

provide the support the police needs,it’s now desperate times calling fordesperate measures.It’s our constitutional right to be

protected; it’s our right to call forhelp. If the defense force can bedeployed to address xenophobia, thenthe same can be done for us. This waris beyond xenophobia.We call on community leaders and

structures across the boundaries tojoin the Parkwood estate communityin this initiative to engage the nation-al government and the president onthis serious matter.It’s time to take back our communi-

ties.PASTOR PAUL PHILLIPS

Reading is ‘crucial’Excellent! Well done, Editor. You said itso well – reading is crucial, especially bychildren. With our good libraries there isno excuse not to read.

TESSA VAN ROOYENEmailEskom, you must answer for yourself

While we all know Eskom has majorproblems and that it is struggling to keepthe lights on, we also know that it is notour problem or fault!So why on earth should we be pun-

ished for its mistakes? I mean, seriously,how on earth can it put the power off foralmost five hours? What about stuff inthe fridges and freezers that can go off?Who is going to pay for that – Eskom?It doesn’t even have enough money to

keep the lights on, where will it still get

money to pay for damages?I would also like to know where is the

money going to? Every time you hear thegovernment gave so much and so muchto help Eskom and in spite of loadshed-ding, we still pay skyhigh for electricity!So please tell us, where is the money

going to? We have the right to know.After all, most of it is our hard-earnedmoney.

SKWalmers won Cape Town’s most pop-ular derby rugby match.Ashiq Wise’s Walmers side emerged

victorious in only the second derby sinceunification against old rival Primrose at theGreen Point track on Saturday.Although Walmers comfortably won this

Premier League A encounter 35-17, thematch was filled with excitement and ten-sion, both on and off the field.These two teams were big rivals before

unification when they contested for decadesin the Premier League competition of theCity and Suburban Rugby union in Craw-ford.Last yearwas the first time these two sides

met in a derby as both teamsplayed in differ-ent league competitions in the WP RugbyUnion before unification of the deferent ra-cially based rugby unions more than twodecades ago.Last year’s derby at Rosmead, home-

ground of Primrose, ended in a 25 all draw.This is Wise’s first victory in three games

inhis first seasonashead coachafter joiningthe club last year as assistant coach. Wisehas had a long history with the club, havingplayed for the Bo-Kaap club as a craftyscrumhalf before embarking on a provincialcareer which would see him having a stintwith WP and the Pumas.For Walmers, Abubaker Davids, Madeeg

Davids, Jawaad Dramat, Mikaeel Hartley,Dawood Petersen and Bjorn Julies scoredtries while Yasfir David slotted over a con-

versionwithGhakeemLarnie goaling a pen-alty.Primrose’s points came from tries by

NaceedoPetersen andJasonJantjies. Jantji-es converted his own try and a penalty.SK Walmer’s next match is on 16 May

when it takes on Villager at Brookside.Primrose will be up against the national

Community Cup champions Durbell at theDurbanville sportsground on Saturday.
