Ses skoolseuns van Tzaneen se doppies is geklink, nadat hulle weens vandalisme uitgevang is. Twee of drie van die seuns is minderjarig en mag nie geïdentifiseer word. Die Bulletin het egter al ses se name en woonadresse.

Twee van die seuns is in matriek en die een is ‘n puik en bekende atleet wat al internasionaal meegeding het. Sy matriekmaat is deur die polisie in hegtenis geneem (verderaan meer hieroor).

Hul vernielsugtigheid is verlede week Woensdagaand onderbreek, toe patrolliepersoneel van Northern Sekuriteit agterdogtig geraak en die seuns dopgehou het. Die seuns het vroeër drie motors (waarvan ons weet) se ruite uitgegooi, waar die motors in die eienaars se persele geparkeer was: twee in Arborpark en een in Perry Joynt-straat.

Later het hulle ligte op omheinings/grensmure met ‘n krieketkolf stukkend geslaan, in Parkstraat en in King Edward-straat. Vroeër is onder meer die moskee in Agathastraat beskadig, toe duur vensters stukkend gegooi is.

Tzaneen word erg gepla deur vandaliste en een van die gewildste teikens van die booswigte is straatnaamborde wat gebuig en selfs afgebreek word. Dit veroorsaak groot ongerief vir inwoners en besoekers aan die dorp en selfs die nooddienste word soms hierdeur ontwrig.

Volgens ‘n prokureur wat deur die ouers van een seun om hulp genader is, is die skade van verlede week se vernieltoer deur die ouers betaal. Die bedrag is onbekend, maar moet nogal aan die hoë kant wees.

In die geledere van die Polisie is daar glo onmin oor die voorval, toe die seun wat in hegtenis geneem is, later die nag nadat ‘n skulderkenning van R1 000 betaal is, vrygelaat is. Sommige polisielede voel die ondersoek na verskeie voorvalle was in daardie stadium nog nie afgehandel nie en die seun moes nie die geleentheid gekry het om vry uit te stap nie. Na verneem word, word nog sewe voorvalle ondersoek en kan die Polisie die seun weer aankeer.

Die seuns, of van hulle, het vroeër die aand by ‘n kroeg in Agathastraat

gekuier en die lawaaiwater het glo gevloei. ‘n Vriend van die ouer seuns, wat ook ‘n plaalike oud-leerling is en deesdae aan die Noordwes Universiteit in Potchefstroom studeer, se bakkie is deur die ouers seuns geleen om mee rond te ry. Die student het nie geweet waarvoor die seuns sy voertuig wou gebruik nie en hy was salig onbewus van hul kwaaddoenery.

Sy bakkie se nommer is deur ‘n inwoner van King Edwardstraat geneem en aan die sekuriteitspersoneel gegee. Die Polisie het die nommer nagegaan en so op die eienaar se spoor gekom, wat die Polisie weer op die spoor van die jong vandaliste gesit het.

• Die Bulletin het besluit om in dié stadium nie die seuns wat ouer as 16 is te identifiseer nie. Ons wil nie jong seuns se toekoms bederf ter wille van sensasie nie, maar ons steun die gedagte wat deur baie mense uitgespreek word (lees ons Facebook-debat op bladsy 2), naamlik dat die seuns terapie behoort te ontvang en dalk ook gemeenskapsdiens behoort te doen. Vir die pa’s om die skade te betaal, bied bloot finansiële troos aan mense wat skade gelei het, maar dit swaai nie noodwendig die kinders se koppe om meer verantwoordelik te dink en op te tree nie. Ons sal metteryd besluit of dit in die belang van die breë gemeenskap is om hulle te identifiseer en of dit nodig is om as waarskuwing aan ander kinders te dien — Redakteur

The abuse of the R71 via Georges Valley and Magoebaskloof by heavy vehicles might soon be halted by the provincial government. This commanding announcement was made by the Department of Road and Transport’s spokesperson, Mr Jimmy Machaka.

The Bulletin approached the Department after concerns expressed by numerous people that heavy vehicles were still using these routes and will soon “destroy” the new Magoebaskloof Road. Georges Valley is currently becoming a nightmarish and rather dangerous route.

Up till about eight years ago there was a prominent road sign outside Polokwane, showing that vehicles heavier than 9 tons were prohibited from using either Magoebaskloof or Georges Valley. The sign was badly rusted and it finally fell over. No sooner had the sign disappeared when the flow of overloaded trucks down Georges Valley and Magoebaskloof started to increase.

A weigh bridge that was built at great cost at Mooketsi was

supposed to monitor heavy vehicles and to control the weight of loads between Polokwane and the Lowveld. But for some or other unknown reason the traffic authorities just turned a blind eye when heavy trucks started using Magoebaskloof and Georges Valley, avoiding the Mooketsi route.

Those with a good memory will remember that the Georges Valley route became extremely bad and had to be upgraded about three years ago. It is now falling apart, again!

According to Machaka, the Department was not aware that trucks were still using the Georges Valley and M a g o e b a s k l o o f routes, instead of the Mooketsi route and in so doing avoiding the weigh

bridge. Machaka said “we were not aware that certain trucks were still using the two routes in question, but our Department has since been made aware of the situation and we have already put in place traffic officials to monitor the two routes”.

Machaka added that they have started investigating the matter. “An inquiry will be launched in due time but an investigation into the matter is underway. Apart from forcing these heavy

vehicles to use the weigh bridge, officers will always be on standby to act, should truck drivers violate the law.”

The investigation is to last for seven working days from the day of the inquiry. Special operations will be

run time from to time to ensure that heavy vehicles adhere to the rules and

regulations of the road.Elliot Mathye

Anders as Oubal, glo Vlieg nie meer in wonderwerke nie. Al sedert hy laas die Maaierbybel gelees het nie meer nie.

Vlieg was dus nie verbaas toe hy gisteroggend wakker word en nie ‘n blou kappie dra nie. Die hemele het toe nie geval nie. Hy was ook nie verbaas toe hy by sy oprit uitry en die slaggat voor sy huis nog daar is nie. En ook nie oor al Lampopo se maaiers en papies nog nie skoolboeke het nie. Ook nie oor daar nie oornag ses miljoen nuwe werksgeleenthede geskep is of ‘n miljoen nuwe huise gebou is nie.

Nog minder toe hy sien daar word nog steeds maatskaplike toelae uitgedeel, of dat inflasie nie verdwyn het nie en die land se ekonomiese groeikoers nog dieselfde is nie. Ook nie oor die mynstakings

nog aan die gang is, of die Superrugbyspanne vir Saterdag nog oorwegend wit is nie.

Want Vlieg het geweet dat al die beloftes en praatjies voor die verkiesing juis net dit was: verkiesingsbeloftes en -praatjies!

Ook het Vlieg nog tien vingers. Twee piepie-in-die-kooie, twee fielafooie, twee langerade, twee duimpie se maats, een duimpie en ‘n perse! Ja, weliswaar het Vlieg toe maar gaan stem. So kwart voor nege se kant, net voor die tellery sou begin. Die arme “inker” was teen daardie tyd al so uitgeput, sy het vas op haar arms gelê en slaap. Dit was seker uitmergelend om die hele dag mense se duime te moes sit en “ink”.

Vlieg het dit eers oorweeg om haar te

systap en te probeer om twee keer te stem, totdat hy besef het nog een ou enkele wit stemmetjie gaan geen hond haaraf maak in hierdie provinsie nie. Waarskynlik ook nie ‘n hoender veeraf of ‘n skaap wolaf nie. Toe maak hy haar maar wakker.

Daar was net ‘n oomblik in die stemhokkie toe Vlieg die stembrief oopvou, dat hy gevoel het soos ‘n eerstekeer ma wat haar babaseuntjie bad en nie ‘n clue het wat om met sy voorvel te doen nie.

Het Vlieg maar geweet daar was soveel partye het hy hom baie beter vir stemdag voorberei. Die stembrief lyk toe vir hom kompleet soos Josef se kleed, of miskien eerder ‘n hanswors se broek.

Al wat Vlieg nou maar voor kan hoop, is dat hy sy kruisie agter die regte nar se gevreet getrek het.

En die res van die kiesers ook!

Watchdog Tzaneen Wel, dit het so 4 ure geneem om hulle op te spoor. Hulle moet

n les geleer word. Dit is hoe kriminele aangan nie net stout kinders nie. Hulle moet alle skade betaal en gemeenskapsdiens doen, maar ek glo nie daar is meer soiets nie. Dit gan oor opvoeding en die invloed wat hulle het. Hulle moet hulp ook kry. Geen kind doen dit net vir ‘fun’ nie.

Hendra Gouws Openbare gemeenskaps-

diens soos borde opsit wat hulle verniel het. Jong mense moet iets in Tzaneen kry om te doen. Ledigheid is die duiwel se oorkussing!

Marina Blignaut Maybe these hooligans need to be given two years of community

service, where they have to repair all the damage they have done. But, they have to pay for everything they have damaged! Did they do these things at their own homes!

Antionette Botha Dit is krimineel en hulle moet beslis gestraf word en

betaal vir die skade wat hulle aangerig het. Gemeenskapdiens!

Marie Swanepoel Gemeenskapsdiens aan diegene wie se eiendom beskadig is

Amanda Strydom Kyk ek wil so ou se alie skop. My vensters is so gegooi! Dit kos nie

een en twaalf pennies om te vervang! Hoekom stukkend gegooi? Die dames van die nag is deur my verjaag omdat hulle so mors en die gemors net so los! Vieslike spul. Mense wat geen respek het vir ander se eiendom? Vat maar wat in jou rigting kom! Vensters was? Wagstaan vir twee maande by die eiendom wat deurgeloop het? Siessaaaa julle!

Sampie En Alida Liversage As dit ‘n eerste keer is, vat hulle op ‘n toer deur die tronk

en laat hulle gemeenskapsdiens doen, verder moet betrokke ouers kompenseer vir die skade.

Sê jou sê

• ‘n Paar jong belhamels is verlede week in Tzaneen aangekeer, nadat hulle uitgevang is dat hulle mense se eiendom gevandaliseer het. Vandalisme van straatnaamborde, ligte op tuinmure, beton-vullishouers op sypaadjies en deesdae sommer ook mense se voertuie wat in hul erwe staan, is ‘n groot probleem in die dorp. Stem jy saam dat dit ‘n probleem is en tweedens, watse straf dink jy behoort aan die jong seuns wat so kwaad doen en skade aanrig, uitgedeel te word?

• A couple of hooligans were apprehended last week after they vandalised the property of people in town. Vandalism of street name signs, lights on walls, concrete bins on pavements and even vehicles on private property has become a major problem in our town. Do you agree that it is a big headache and secondly, what kind of punishment should be meted out to the young boys that creates the havoc?

That seems a surprising answer, but at SANRAL we understand how many things are interrelated. While doing the environmental impact analysis during construction on the R71 near Moria, it became apparent that the trout in the local river were finding it difficult to access breeding grounds upstream.

One of our engineers thought we could lend a hand, building a fish ladder to make it easier for the breeding trout to navigate the weir.

More fish means better tourism. More tourists translate into additional work opportunities, and that means more families with housing, food and education.

You see at SANRAL we’re good at connecting things.

An illegal hawker operating at the corner of Danie Joubert Street and Lannie Street will finally face the iron fist of the law.

Residents, motorists and other hawkers have been complaining for years about the man in his shiny silver Volkswagen Amarok Double Cab who takes up a parking bay unlawfully to run his business. He sells mainly clothing and other materials from his “private” parking bay — and that in a street where a serious shortage of public parking frustrate motorists daily.

When the Bulletin enquired about this man’s privileged treatment, the Greater Tzaneen Municipality suddenly “decided” that it was time to act.

According to the GTM’s chief traffic officer, Mr Johannes Malatjie, the hawker is indeed trading unlawfully. He says the hawker was told to apply for a permit to run his business of selling T-shirts, political party flags and other items. “We have approached this man in the past, but he refuses to listen to us. He was told to apply for the permit which would allow him to run his business at the free trading zone”, said Malatjie.

Bulletin also spoke to GTM spokesperson Neville Ndlala about the unlawful trader. He confirmed what Malatjie had said. “There are

designated areas where hawkers can trade and these areas are under constant monitoring by our health inspectors and law enforcement officers.

“There are also free trading zones such as bus and taxi ranks where hawkers trade free of charge under strict supervision of GTM officials,” Ndlala said. He eluded the fact that the municipality will soon take serious action through their law enforcement division, but said at this moment they are not in a position to confirm the exact time of such action.

“We are currently working on reviewing our bylaws in order to effectively render services to our communities. This process will include redrafting and public consultation. It must also be noted that there is a need for the realignment of our bylaws with amendments, as well as new and current

legislation” added Ndlala.When asked what the GTM could do to intervene, Ndlala

said that they will be working with parking meter assistants who will monitor the parking areas of the CBD.

“We expect the process to kick start this month, provided we do not experience any challenges in the interim. We are hopeful that the commencement of this project will bring some level or degree of order in our CBD,” he said.

He concluded by saying “this vacuum resulting from bylaws not gazetted has caused the GTM to fail in effectively dealing with those who contravene our policies, processes and procedures”.

Illegal main street hawker to face the law

Mnr Faan de Swardt (69), ‘n gerekende ekonoom in kommersiële landbou in Limpopo, het Sondag in Tzaneen se Mediclinic beswyk, nadat hy die afgelope tyd probleme met diabetes gehad het. ‘n Herinneringsdiens sal vandag om 14:00 deur die Tzaneen Rotariërs vir hom gehou word. Hy was ‘n toegewyde Rotariër en ‘n vorige president van die klub

De Swardt was die eienaar van Measured Farming (Edms) Bpk en het volgens mnr Tommie van Zyl van ZZ2 diep spore in landbou-ekonomie getrap. Hy het na sy studies in Stellenbosch ‘n dosent in landbou-ekonomie aan die Universiteit van Fort Hare geword, totdat hy Measured Farming in 1987 gestig het, om as projekbestuurder en ekonomiese ontleder in die boerderybedryf ‘n diens te lewer.

In dié tyd het hy ook positief betrokke geraak by ZZ2 in samewerking met wyle mnr Bertie van Zyl, as deel van die groep se dinkskrum en verskeie ander projekte. In 1997 het hy ‘n direkteur van ZZ2 geword en was onder meer voorsitter van hul ouditkomitee. Hy het ook in die direksie van verskeie ander maatskappye in die ZZ2-groep gedien.

Ander projekte wat hy met Measured Farming behartig het, was Ledzee Estates vir die Cooper-familie, Rechs Nurseries en vroeër ook die Ontwikkelingskorporasie.

Van Zyl sê De Swardt sal veral onthou word vir sy hoë syferkundigheid. Sy pa, mnr Black de Swardt, was die direkteur-generaal van landbou in die Verwoerd- en Vorster-eras.

De Swardt laat sy vrou, Jo, en twee seuns, Faan (woon in Amerika) en Chris (woon in Johannesburg) agter.

The community of Tickyline, in the Lenyenye and Maake areas, is still on strike because of not having water. They are destroying parts of the main road by digging holes and burning tyres and trees. This is how they hope to be heard by the Greater Tzaneen Municipality. The strike disrupts various businesses, such

as shops in the Maake Plaza, and public transport like taxis and buses that have to use R37 route. The GTM’s spokesperson, Mr Neville Ndlala, said no agreement between the community and the GTM could be reached during a meeting, as the community members were very violent and not paying attention to any discussions. “Not every corner can have water, but some parts of the community have illegal water connections,” said Ndlala.“Some of these people who have a hand in the strike seem to have other excuses for looting small tuck shops.” The Maake Plaza’s entrance has been closed for a few days since the strike started, causing a slowdown in business activities. Even the taxis are no longer allowed inside the fenced-off area of the Plaza. They park outside and wait there for commuters. The vehicles of shoppers are also not allowed inside, as the police are trying to control the situation. There were also threats to set the Maake Plaza alight. Members of the community who do not condone the strike said they are now relying on the police for further protection.

CRIME SCENEBulletin Crime Reporter

Suspect’s houses burntOn Saturday residents in Giyani’s KaDzingi-Dzingi (Bode village) area burnt down ten houses belonging to the families of three criminal suspects in the area. Provincial Police spokesperson Lt Col Ronel Otto said these in-cidents were sparked off by the assault of Mr Dennis Chabalala by three suspects, while he was walking home from a local tavern.

He was reportedly beaten up by the sus-pects who apparently intended to rob him.

Chabalala reportedly died in hospital after sustaining serious injuries, said Otto. Young people from the village reportedly mobilised in an effort to burn down the houses of family of the suspects. Police were deployed to the scene. A case of assault was opened against Prince Mabunda (23) and later changed to murder, while the search for the two others suspects continues. No one was reported injured. How-ever, Police investigations are ongoing.

Chabalala’s death has definitively sparked a tit-for-tat retaliation by his friends and com-munity members, angered by how he died, reports Orlando Chauke. On Saturday, a day before the deceased was laid to rest, his friends backed by community members retal-iated by torching the houses. The retaliation was fuelled by the fact that the deceased was appreciated as a good man who would not hurt a fly. Speaking at his funeral on Sunday, his friends said the retaliation was actually a fit of anger, something that they said was be-yond their control.

“We heard one of the uncles said it was not proper to destroy property… yes, we agree with him, but anger is like happiness. When one is happy you cannot control how that person should act or laugh,” said Mr Dan Mhangani one of the deceased’s friends. An-other friend, Mr Oscar Khosa, defended the torching of houses and said “the destroying of property is part of the country’s law to force the government to obey… what hap-pened to those families will at least leave us at peace.” Mourners applauded and clapped hands when he said so..

Mr Thomas Makondo, who spoke on behalf of the siblings, appealed for peace, saying violence would distract police work on the case. “As much as we appreciate your sup-port in our time of grieve, we’re not happy with what is happening in the name of this funeral. As family we have no intention to retaliate… we leave everything to God,” he said.

Brought to bookRitavi police made tireless efforts over the past week to fight crime and they arrested 76 suspects: 55 for traffic offences, assault, illegal

selling and consumption of liquor. Fifteen people where held for murder, rape and housebreaking and police also apprehended six people suspected of robbery, attempted theft and rape.

Reckless motorists caughtAs many as 53 motorists were caught by police over the past week around Tzaneen, for traffic offences and 41 others for criminal behaviour. Eleven others were arrested for illegal gambling and possession of counterfeit goods. A group of 24 suspects were held for assault, shoplifting, theft and robbery, while six others were locked up for malicious damage to property, rape and murder.

These photos show burnt tyres and the melted and damaged tar road in Tickyline, where residents protested for water.

Houses belonging to family of the suspects in the murder of Dennis Chabalala were still burning on Saturday night, after the deceased’s friends had taken revenge by torching them.

Strike continues due to water shortage

Lekker droomRoy Hurter skryf per e-pos: So met die baie tyd wat ek op die pad deurbring is ek geneig om soms te droom. Lekker drome, mind you, dit laat die pad verby gaan, sommer so tjop-tjop.

Soos enige ander werkende man, droom ek ook van die “groot wen” Dis nou die Lotto, net om seker te maak ons is almal op dieselfde bladsy. Kyk, ek glo met alles in my dat, ongeag wie of wat jy is, die R15miljoen sal nie te versmaaie wees nie. Kruisig my, ban uit die kerk, maak van my persona non grata, ek wil dit wen!

Ek weet presies wat ek daarmee gaan doen. Nou nie tot op die sent nie, maar tot die naaste miljoen, ten minste. Ons jongste reken as ek alles gekoop het, sal hy die helfte van wat oorbly neem vir ‘n shopping-trippie by die groot R-speelgoedwinkel! My anner helfte reken die wen het ‘n baie belangrike element: ‘n kaartjie!

So besluit ek toe ek gaan die groot stap neem: ek gaan ‘n kaartjie koop. Niks ekspen-

sief nie, nee, net R20. Dink nie aan nommers nie, nee wat, sommer ‘n “quick-pick “sal die ding doen. Ek het net so ‘n goeie kans as die ou wat die nommers droom, uitwerk, kry, steel van sy vriend of sy kind se geboorteda-tum gebruik.

By die masjien aangekom is ek tweede in die ry. Man, kan ek so gelukkig wees! Die dame voor my gee twintig voltooide kaartjies in en ek lag saggies in my mou. “Jy kon maar die R680 in jou sak gehou het, ek gaan die wenkaartjie nou vir twintig bokke koop, my girl”. En sy maak klaar en ek stap kordaat nader met die olifantnoot in my hand. “R20 quick- pick, please”, seg ek.

Nou wat nou gebeur is die waarheid, die hele waarheid en niks anners as die waarheid nie. Die bleddie masjien gaan van lyn af! Ek staan vas, gaan nêrens nie, wag vir die ding

om aan te kom, maar twintig minute later gee ek die stryd gewonne. Ry huis toe en op pad is daar nog’ n masjien waar ek stop. Die lyn is nog steeds af!

Ek het nie n kaartjie nie, ook nie R15miljoen nie. Maar ek droom nog steeds as ek ry. Wie weet, sê nou is ‘n lekker sê, alles wat ‘n mens wil hê, alles wat jou hart begeer...PS: Ek wonder of die wenner nog droom?

WaarskuwingJeanette skryf per e-pos: Ek wil graag hê julle moet die jong meisies waarsku. My dogter het maandag 5 Mei van Ben Vorster af huis toe gestap na skool en was aangeval deur twee mans. Hier is haar storie: ”Ek het van Ben Vorster af huis toe gestap en daar was twee mans wat onder ‘n boom op die brug op pad na Sugarhill gesit het. My selfoon was in my

sak. Ek het verby die twee mans gestap en so ‘n minuut daarna het ek iemand agter my hoor loop. Toe ek omkyk was dit een van die mans. Voor ek kon hardloop het hy my teen die grond vasgedruk en die tweede man het my mond toegedruk toe ek begin skree het. Hulle het my bene vasgehou

sodat ek nie moet skop nie en toe steel hulle my foon. Daar het een man langs my gestop en agter die twee mans aangehardloop, maar dit was te laat. Ek het daarna Sugarhill toe gegaan en hulle het my ouers gebel. Baie dankie aan die mense van Sugarhill wat my gehelp het, asook die man wat langs my gestop het.”Ek wil nie eens dink wat met my dogter sou gebeur het as die verbygaande motoris nie gestop het nie. Asseblief, meisies, moet nie alleen stap nie kry iemand om saam met jou te stap.

Baie dankieJan Jacobsz van El Natan skryf per e-pos: Die inwoners van El Natan wil graag die man en sy kinders wat die avokadopere afgelaai het, hartlik bedank. Dit was ‘n uiters bedagsame gebaar.

OntwaakPraat van reaktiewe optrede en niemand kan dit beter verduidelik as regerings nie, veral dié op plaaslike vlak.

Vir ‘n paar jaar al kla mense oor ‘n smous wat onwettig ‘n parkeerruimte in Tzaneen se hoofstraat beset. Niemand doen niks nie, tot die Bulletin aan die saak roer. Nou is daar groot stories oor nuwe ver-ordeninge en word hoog opgegee oor hoe die saak beredder gaan word...

Intussen is dit maar net wetteloosheid wat ewe lamsakkig toegelaat word. Daar is nie vir alles in die lewe spesiale en toe-gewyde wette nodig nie.

Vir ongeveer ‘n dekade lank al word Ma-goebaskloof en Georges Valley deur oor-laaide voertuie misbruik en flenters gery. Niemand doen niks nie.

Toe die Bulletin by die provinsie se paaie-afdeling gaan vra wat nou eintlik aan die gang is, vertel hulle hoe verbaas hulle was om hiervan te hoor, hoe hulle dit gaan monitor, hoe die verkeerslui nou gaan optree, ensovoorts. Ons sal sien... Ons kan die koerant vol skryf oor die lam-sakkigheid waarmee wetteloosheid toe-gelaat word. Die misbruik van duur win-kelwaentjies, smouse orals in die strate en langs die paaie, kosbereiding in die oop-tes, hoenderslagterye op sypaadjies, geen bou-inspeksies nie...

Ons sal maar bly kla en dophou.

Die mense hoor Let wel: Hulle sê nie so nie!

Top of the heap!

Well done! We congratulate all the 2012 matrics who passed.

Schools in the

Tzaneen area can boast yet an-

other good year as far as matric results

are concerned. Top per-forming school is Stan-

ford Lake College with a 100% pass rate. Merensky is in second place with a

98,9% pass rate — slightly down from 2011, when the school had a rather strong

(academic) group. Ponani Phumla Mabunda (left ) of Kwangulatilo High School in Giyani was the Mopani District’s top matriculant for 2012, with seven dis-tinctions. Orlando Chauke (who also took the photo) reports that she didn’t shy away from showing her happiness and excitement aft er she had received her results. She is one of Lim-popo’s top pupils and obtained distinctions in Xitsonga, English, math-ematics, physical science,

agricultural science, life science and life orienta-tion. “I have my parents to thank for my success. They provided me with the nec-essary support and study material to help me out during my studies,” she told Bulletin.• The collection of the information pertaining to the matric results was done by Bulletin’s Retha Nel, Beaunice Mnisi, Amelia de Ridder and Martina Jege. * Turn to page 3 for the full de-tails of the matric results of ten high schools in our area.

The Message

• Mense word soms op vreemde maniere gestraf. Vat nou byvoorbeeld die man wat so lekker vir almal tong uitgesteek het, omdat hy/hulle die uitstekende herfs-weer in die Kaap getref het, heerlike seekos vir ‘n week lank geëet het, goeie wyn kon sluk, ou vriende kon opsoek en besoek en dies meer. Maar soos eie honde wat die seerste byt, het ‘n Kaapse hond op ‘n strawwe manier gebyt. Hy’t sy vriend uit Limpopo op ‘n uit-stappie geneem, om Tafelberg te klim! Vat jou straf, Nasie, vat dit soos ‘n man. Jou kuite sal weer eendag beter voel...• Die hoenderboer wat nou nie meer so baie geld oor het vir die boerdery nie, omdat mamma daarmee vort is, het ook ‘n ander probleem. Hy kan nou nie meer so gereeld die salonne in Pretoria en Johannesburg besoek nie...• Genááde, wanneer gaan die Vroueliga se hoendervleis

eendag opraak? Eers was dit net stukkies, nou is dit al stukke. Maar dis reg, Een, bied vir KFC ook so ‘n bietjie mededinging... • Ons het toe nie almal Woensdag gaan stem nie...• Daar is nie net in Nkowankowa met ongedissiplineerde honde probleme nie. In Tzaneen is daar ook heelwat honde wat maar uiters onnadenkend is met hul blaf-tye. Sommige weet ook nie hoe lank om aan te hou nie en gaan dan som-

mer die grootste deel van die nag aan. Die Koning se straat is een so ‘n plek, maar die mense hoor iemand het ‘n plan om die honde se tande te laat trek. Gaan glo ‘n spesiale tandarts daar by die Berg (of is dit berge?) kry...• Om nuut getroud te wees kan soms met ‘n ontdekkings-reis vergelyk word. So hoor die mense van die nuutge-troude paartjie van Tzaneen wat Kaap toe is vir ‘n vakan-

sietjie. Die man het nie geweet sy vrou is jaloers nie. Toe hulle Drie Susters (in Beaufort-Wes se kontrei) nader, het die man sy voet van die versneller afgehaal en begin regmaak om by die diensstasie en restaurant langs die pad te stop. Vroulief het volstrek geweier, want sê nou net haar nuwe mannetjie maak ogies vir een van die drie susters; of hulle maak ogies vir hom! Soos Oubal sou sê, ‘Tja...

Well Easter has come and gone! What was Easter like? Was it just another long weekend or did you perhaps remember what the true meaning of this period is all about? Jesus p aid the supreme sacrifice for each and everyone of us some 2000 years ago. Does it still hold the same significance today or has it become meaningless?

Many of us will pay the best prices for tickets to see some famous artist/singer; we want to be in the front, have the best seats in the house no matter what it costs! Yet when we go to church, or should I say if we go to church we sit at the back. Is this paying respect to one who died for us? I have heard many excuses for sitting at the back yet none of them really carry weight. If we are not part of the Body of Christ who are we then?

I often think of writing a book on the excuses people make for not attending church. I know I will find a lot of valid excuses, like being in hospital or bedridden perhaps these are the only two excuses that seem plausible,

others are just not acceptable. Yes, we are human and I don’t expect everyone to attend all the time, because then one could argue that it is a habit which has no real meaning.

We are all searching for some meaning in our lives and having met Jesus Christ and accepted Him as my reason for living a whole new perspective was shown to me. A song I once heard many years ago whose words go something like this: “So He created all the earth… So He was the nativity? What is that to me? Till I met Him face to face one day and felt the wonder of all His grace, now He walks beside me each day ever watching lest I stray…” has a new found meaning to me. Yes I found a new way of life, a life worth living. Things still go wrong and I know nothing is perfect in this world, but I pay homage to Him in church as well as on my own. It is communion with others that we find true peace and harmony. So I invite you to attend church more regularly. Blessings.

The best bird was7Bulletin 9 Mei 2014

Ms Lilian van Reenen turns 83 in a few months time. Speaking from her home at Macadamia Retirement Village in Tzaneen she reminisces about her life, her happy mar-riage and her bush babies.

Van Reenen was born in Pietermaritzburg and came to Tzaneen in 1934 at the age of three. Her father, Mr Frank Edwards, known as Teddy, was sent to Tzaneen to start and manage Troye’s Garage, the first Ford agency. One of van Reenen’s ear-liest recollections is play-ing in the foundations of Troye’s garage.

She attended Tzaneen Laerskool and then St Pius Convent in Polok-wane. She did a secre-tarial course in Pretoria and returned to Tzaneen when her father died.

Van Reenen, who is flu-ent in Sotho, said that an interview without suitable accolades to her late husband would not be possible. Mr Archie van Reenen was born in Kroonstad in the Free State. His parents were teachers. He studied agriculture at Cedara in KZN and came to Tzaneen in 1951 to run a farm.

Lilian was about to get engaged to some-

one in Pretoria. She went to a party at King’s Walden in Agatha and Archie was there. He enquired about this attractive young girl, only to be told “she’s taken”. Not to be phased van Reenen replied, “I’m going to marry that girl.” The rest is history.

When Ms Edwards died, the young married couple took over the family farm Loretto in Hamawasha outside Tzaneen. The farm was

not productive so van Reenen supplemented the family income by sell-ing cars and houses. Lil-ian raised two boys and two girls. She said that the farming years were hard with many fires and droughts.

She was secretary at Unicorn Primary School for twelve years, then secretary to Mr Jay Bran-son’s at Sapekoe for four

years, returned to Unicorn for another two years and then retired. The Van Reenen sports field at Unicorn is named after the family for their contribution to the school.

Birds’ eggs were Archie’s first love. From his early Free State school days his mentor was Professor Prozesky, the ornithologist at

the then Transvaal museum. He instructed van Reenen how to collect eggs scientifically and oology became his passion. In 1980 when legislation and the tide of public sentiment turned against oologists, Van Reenen sold his collection of over 4 000 eggs covering 438 SA bird species to the Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology in Los Angeles, USA.

Van Reenen captured many of the interest-ing stories in his book For the Love of Birds. He rewrote the book fourteen times with the late Mr Peter Williams as his backbone, Ms Daphne Bender one of the main proofreaders and his wife Lilian as his un-wavering supporter.

Besides writing poetry, he also wrote another book for the family. Titled Two sides of the Coin, it is the history of his two grandfathers who fought against each other at the battle of Koffiefontein near Kimberley in the Free State during the Anglo Boer War. The grand-fathers were the McDonald clan from Scot-land and the Afrikaans Van Reenen family.

Archie started a home museum. Soon he’d collected worthwhile memorabilia and histori-cal items that drew visitors from far and wide.

The couple moved to Macadamia some five years ago and left the farm to their son. Ar-chie died shortly thereafter at the age of 79.

Eighteen months ago, Van Reenen’s son-in-law was sitting on her veranda and spotted a thick tailed bush baby, Galago crassicaudatus or “bosnagaap” in Afrikaans. He set about making a trolley feeder contraption from the veranda to a nearby indigenous tree.

As night falls Van Reenen plac-es fruit in the wire basket, sends it to the tree, and some seven nocturnal bush babies come to feast. The Macadamia Govern-ing Body granted her permis-sion as she brings the leftovers in later, so that the vervet monkeys aren’t tempted in the mornings.

Van Reenen enjoys coloured pencil art and beadwork. She no doubt took that cue from her god daughter, Ms Bev Gibson, from Nottingham Road in KZN.

Gibson’s beadwork company, Ubuhle Beads (means beautiful beads), is world renowned.

Van Reenen can’t explain her longevity as genetically she comes from family who did not live long. She, however, attributes her long life to taking a keen interest in the world around her and in everyone whom she meets.

Another senior citizen who was deeply involved in sha-ping today’s Tzaneen is Ms Lilian van Reene. Her husband, the late Archie van Reenen, played a major role in intro-ducing Tzaneen to an international community of ornithol-ogists and oologists. Our Sue Ettmay interviewed the well-known Ms Lilian, who allowed us a peep into her life. This is yet another contribution in Bulletin’s exclusive series

about our senior citizens.

The community of Nkowankowa is in shock and many live in fear, after recent attacks on residents by stray dogs.

The news of stray dogs attacking residents in section B of the township has some people fearing for their safety whenever they have to go to the nearest spaza or even to use certain streets. Nobody wants to be mauled by the vicious canines.

The most gruesome of the recent attacks saw an eleven-year-old and his grandmother being attacked. According to the victim, Ms Sannie Mhlongo, she was at home when a neighbour came screaming that her grand-son was being attacked. “In panic I ran out as fast as I could. When I got to the scene, about fifteen dogs were mauling and biting my grandson”. She ran to the aid of her grandson

and before she could reach him, she was at-tacked and sustained serious injuries.

Said Ms Mhlongo: “They bit me on my legs, my ear and other parts of my body. Some people nearby came to our rescue, but the pain was unbearable. We were admitted at Letaba Hospital for two weeks and we are still on medication”.

According to Ms Ellie Potgieter of Letaba SPCA, they have been called in connection with a number of cases of stray dog attacks in the Nkowankowa area. “We have since been to that area where the attack took place, and at some point had to capture five dogs report-ed to have been violent”.

Potgieter reiterated that for the SPCA to assist communities with similar problems, the SAPS and the GTM should report cases

to them and work together with the community at large. She also said that communities around Tzaneen need to be educated on what the SPCA is really about.

“The SPCA’s main objective is to protect animals against cru-elty. It is not the task of the SPCA to chase these stray dogs or to kill them. We can only intervene once an ani-mal is contained in a specific area. We do not chase after ani-mals, let alone stray dogs which can be dangerous to us also” added Potgieter.

Since her ordeal, Mhlongo has opened a case with the Ritavi Police, but according to her little has been done so far. “At the moment, no one has taken responsibility for the stray dogs and they remain to grow in numbers”.

The Ritavi Police could not be reached for comment on the case before our dead-line.

The Kiwi Festival in Haenertsburg was an unpre-cedented success this past weekend. Thousands of tourists flocked to the event. Parking was at a premium and the main street was full of people walking, taking in the sights and popping in to the many stalls and businesses.

The Red Plate restaurant, owned by Ms Colleen Pirie, was extended almost a year ago to accommodate double the original number of guests. However, this weekend the restaurant was full inside and out on the wooden deck. People were queuing to get a seat.

The Iron Crown Pub, under the new management of Ms Linda Halkon and her son James, pumped from Friday to Sunday. Extra staffers were on hand to cope with the masses.

The open space in front of the Haenertsburg Post Office was alive with a variety of stalls and entertainment for the children in the form of jumping castles. Cooking competitions that inclu-

d e d kiwis as

an ingredient were held inside the Vil-lage Hall and on the Village Hall pavement. Another cooking competition for amateurs was held on Sunday.

Two of the judges were well known retired Dutch chef Mr Eric de Jonge from Haenertsburg and Mr Peter Vereecke from

Bread and Crumb in Tza-neen. Wine tasting was held every few hours in the inner room of the Village Hall. Ms

Junel Vermeulen of Cape Wine Masters presided over the wine tasting, with Ms Mona Runkel at the bar.

Ms Peggy Murray, wife of the late Duke of Atholl, runs the Village Morning Market. She was still open three hours be-yond her normal time on Saturday, as tourists simply flocked to buy the Market produce.

Prof Louis Changuion, one of the village’s famous residents, said the new rebuilt road between Polokwane and Tzaneen impacts favourably on motorists who consider travelling to Haenertsburg and down the mountain into the Lowveld.

Man’s best friend turns wild on residents

Recently Bulletin received a number of com-plaints from Greater Tzaneen Municipality street sweepers about the municipality’s al-leged inefficient delivery of working overalls.

According to one street sweeper who has been working for the GTM for quite a number of years, the GTM sometimes “takes years to deliver uniforms to workers”. Municipal work-ers are supposed to be issued with overalls at the beginning of each year. Sweepers claim they spent the whole of 2011 and 2012 with-out being issued with new overalls, whilst the GTM’s budget provides for this.

When Bulletin contacted the SA Municipal Workers Union (Samwu) to understand the depth of the situation and how the union is re-sponding to the matter, the union’s shop stew-

ard at the GTM, Mr Kenny Makhubela, refused to speak to “the media”.

GTM head of communications, Mr Neville Ndlala, refuted claims of sweepers spending years without receiving overalls. Ndlala, who confirmed that the municipality budgets for sweepers’ overalls, agreed that there have been delays in sweepers receiving overalls at times. Unforeseen and more urgent needs do some-times grant the budget insufficient to do so.

“However, it’s never been a case where the workers would go for years without receiving new overalls,” he said. At the same time, Ndla-la confirmed that for the current year sweep-ers only received overalls three weeks ago.

A LOVING HOME THAT REFLECTS SOUTH AFRICAN DIVERSITYConsider adoption as an option.

South Africa is a country with 11 offi cial languages, hundreds of cultural groups and numerous recognised religions. Every day, families everywhere are mixing up these ingredients to create this multi-wonderful nation that we know and love. If you are thinking of adoption, have you considered adopting a child from a different race or culture? Children are just children, no matter their biological background, and all children need a loving home.

Start your journey today by learning the facts with Add-option, South Africa’s fi rst national adoption resource centre.

“There is a big difference between the idea of cross-cultural adoption, and actually taking a little boy or girl into your home. We didn’t adopt an idea, we adopted Jenna! And from the fi rst moment she has been the love of our lives, exactly the same as a proud mom and dad would reach out for their biological baby at the hospital. The only difference is that she wasn’t born from our womb, but from our hearts.”

“This is a warning shot”… The community of Gon’on’o village in Giyani has warned the Greater Giyani Municipality of dire consequences if their demands for service delivery were not met. The community members marched to the GGM’s offices to demand clarity on a number of problems, including false promises, which they alleged were made by the GGM. Mr Robert Maluleke, the community’s representative, said that the GGM lied during the IDP midterm report back meeting, that it had electrified six villages whereas it had only electrified two. “The question now is, where’s our R12 million which you claimed to have spent on the project?” he asked. The mayor was also accused of cadre deployment and nepotism.

ANC Women’s League President and Minister of Basic Education Angie Motshekga, together with Limpopo premier Stanley Mathabatha, attended the league’s prayer meeting for social cohesion in Nkowankowa. As guest speaker for the event, she thanked the community and representatives of the various religions in the area for responding to the event, as well as for the continuous support bestowed on the ANC and events thereof. She then reminded everyone of the works and achievements of the ruling party since its reign, including the impressively improving matric pass-rate, and promised much more to be done with another term in power. Arriving from all over the township and surrounding areas, the crowd was treated to a performance by the award-winning gospel artist Winnie Mashaba.

The Greater Tzaneen Municipality has appar-ently signed a new contract to install parking meters in the busiest parking bays in Tzaneen’s CBD. This comes after the contract with Di-versified Parking System expired at the end of March.

According to the GTM’s spokesman, Mr Nev-ille Ndlala, motorists who park in Morgan, Danie Joubert, Skirving and Agatha Streets will be compelled to buy parking cards at the GTM’s offices, in order to be permitted to park in these streets. Parking attendants will be deployed to monitor motorists. Motorists will be fined if they abuse the system to park without paying,

Ndlala said.Many people have been left unemployed since

the termination of the previous contract.. One of the voluntary parking attendants said “I only get a few cents for assisting motorists to park and look after their vehicles.”

Ndlala said motorists are not compelled to give parking attendants any money. “The new deal signed between the GTM and a company only known as BCIT Pty (Ltd) will monitor and regulate parking bays in the busiest streets in Tzaneen,” said Ndlala.

The GTM is said to receive 26% of the income from parking to maintain roads and create work

opportunities for unemployed people. GTM traffic chief Johannes Malatjie said that

BCIT Pty (Ltd) is finalising its logistical issues and should commence their work soon. Very little is known about this company and neither Ndlala nor Malatjie could provide any infor-mation about the company or the procedure that will be taken to ensure compliance by mo-torists.

It is still unclear how the parking system would be monitored as no response from the GTM were received regarding this aspect.

Limpopo’s MEC for Public Works, Mr Namane Dickson Masemola, said the government would in future consider the use of an internal structure to build government infrastructures, as opposed to a tendering system, in an effort to save costs and cre-ate jobs.

Masemola was speaking at Nkuri in Giyani at a sod turn-ing ceremony to mark the com-mencement of construction of ten tribal offices in five district municipalities in the province.

“We decided that we were not going to use the tender system to build the tribal offices, but our own internal staff in order to cut cost,” he said. He added that if they were going to use the ten-der system, they would probably be able to build only five of the ten offices.

According to him, the project at Nkuri, which is said to employ

thirty external workers from the village, will cost almost R3m to complete over twelve months, instead of R8,9m had they opted for the tender system.

Standard proceduresWATCHDOG will always involve the SAPS in all neighbourhood operations by supplying relevant information provided by the community; WATCHDOG will however not misuse the services of the SAPS.The Safety of the community and WATCHDOG members is of the utmost importance to us. This is why communication with the SAPS is imperative.

AdvantagesWATCHDOG acts as an information collection centre where members can add and obtain information about their respective areas, bringing all the sectors into one

place.With the WATCHDOG’s ever-growing members, we have eyes and ears all over Tzaneen. Crimes and so forth are thus reported quicker and more effectively.The community gets the opportunity to be involved in other community issues by assisting each other. We have communication with a greater part of the Tzaneen community using WATCHDOG, active 24/7.

WATCHDOG SuccessesWith great pride we can say that we have had much success within our community. Recently we helped the SAPS to make arrests for theft and theft out of vehicles. All reports were made by the community of WATCHDOG. We have assisted in reporting house break-ins, suspicious activity and drug abuse.

Non-profitableWATCHDOG is a non-profit organization that strives solely to improve our community. We have received small donation amounts in appreciation of our services, but most of our expenses are covered solely by WatchDog.

Groet na dertig jaarMe Gretchen Brett, ‘n geliefde Engels onderwysers van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster, het die Vossies na 24 jaar in die tuig gegroet. Brett sal ten seerste gemis word, sê die skool, en wens haar ‘n rustige aftrede toe. Sy het duisende kinders se lewens aangeraak in die jare wat sy onderwys gegee het. Die

hoofmeisie en die skoolhoof het Brett Maandag tydens ‘n seremonie groot lof toegeswaai, vir die uitstaande werk wat sy in die klas gelewer het. Sy is ‘n passievolle mens wat die Vossies met geesdrif geleer het om Engels te praat en ‘n waardering vir Engelse letterkunde te hê.

A resounding accolade goes to the drum majorettes of Tzaneen Primary School. They have been chosen to take part in the Nationals in Cape Town in October. The 29 girls, from ages eight to thirteen, practise four hours per week minimum and up to three hours a day.

There are three categories: flag, pom-pom and large drill. The adults involved in honing the girls’ skills are Mss Lome Vice, Emsa Nel and Lana Botha and the seam-stress is Ms Marlien van Zyl. The head leader, with the mace, is 12-year-old Lin-Mari Theron. She was born with a deformed left hand at the then Duiwelskloof Hospital. There is no medical explanation and her siblings do not have any physical defects.

Confident Theron (Gr 7) says, “I don’t ever want an op-eration as my deformity causes me no physical pain. My older brother and little sister help me if I have to confront people with my disability. However, once we tell them I was born this way, they accept that. I can’t throw the mace as high as I would like though.

“Besides being head leader, I came second in the world at the bow and arrow competition held in Potchefstroom last year.”

The drum majorettes came ninth at Nationals in Polok-wane last year. This is an excellent record as they’re un-der the top ten in South Africa! There are four Provincials coming up with a first ever to be held in Tzaneen on 14 June and two in Polokwane.

In preparation for the Comrades Mararthon in June, hundreds of runners braved a bit of cold Tzaneen weather to participate in the first Tuffy Marathon.

The race, hosted by the Tzaneen Running Club in conjunction with Aïda and the Coach House Hotel and Spa, consisted of a 5 km, 10 km, 21,1 km and for the willing a 42,2 km run, which was also a Comrades Marathon qualifier race. A total of 450 runners took to the tarmac at the start of the race.

Tzaneen Running Club chairman Johan Thiart said he was grateful to all who made the event possible.”I would like to thank our sponsors. We had a great race day and this was a good way to prepare for the Comrades, because

of the hills and flats. On behalf of the Club, I would like to thank each runner who supported the race

and I would like to wish them well on the training for the Comrades,” he said.

The event, started and ended at the Coach House Hotel and Spa. General Manager for the hotel Dean Pitt said he was ecstatic to help host the event at his establishment. “What a great honour to have the first Tuffy Marathon start and end at the Coach House. The atmosphere was awesome and the spirit of camaraderie was ever present. One of our staff members, Thomas Sekqula Musilo, made us proud by running the 42,2 km race.

“He has been with the hotel since its inception in the early 1980’s. This was an awesome event and we cannot wait for the next one,” he said.


Merensky High School’s active archery club competed in two separate competitions recently.

At the WC Indoor Championships, Chené Kleinhans obtained a score of 280 from a possible 300, thereby qualifying for the third time for provincial colours (Limpopo Indoor Championship colours).

Fifteen archers participated at the 2014 ABO/3d Limpopo Championships. The club now boasts with nine archers who qualified

for their ABO provincial colours, namely Ockert le Roux, Dirk Botha, Renart Botha, Ruan Genis, Benèche Jackson, Erich Mosterd, Lin-Marie Theron, Pieter van der Merwe and Adriaan Venter.

Schalk Warmenhoven qualified for ABO national colours and Ricus Warmenhoven for ABO Protea colours. Father and son also broke the Limpopo records with Ricus obtaining 196 and Schalk 194 points.

The triumphant Medrensky team returned with two gold medals while Benèche Jackson, Lin-Marie Theron and Dirk Botha won a silver medal each. Ockert le Roux and Renart Botha won bronze.

Tzaneen archers excel again

The arch medallists: In the front are Lin-Marie Theron, Ricus Warmenhoven and Dirk Botha and in the back are Benèche Jackson, Renart Botha, Ockert le Roux and Schalk Warmenhoven.

Merensky’s ABO team members are: kneeling in front, Leon Jardine, Janco Theron, Erich Mostert and Adriaan Venter. In the middle row are Benèche Jackson, Simone Smith and Lin-Marie Theron. Standing in the back are Ruan Genis, Renart Botha, Pieter van der Merwe, Ockert le Roux, Schalk

Warmenhoven, Dirk Botha, Dawie Theron and Ricus Warmenhoven.

Father Schalk and son Ricus Warmenhoven.

Duiwelskloof Bowls Club concluded a high-ly successful business league tournament on Tuesday. Twelve teams competed over the five week event. Congratulations to the winners from the ZZ2 Green Team (pho-to above), comprising Ruan Bosch (skip), Wouter Matthee (third), Jaco Liebenberg (second) and Nico Swart (lead).

The members and committee of the club thanked the businesses that supported the tournament.

A further business league will be planned later in the year. The teams that played were (in order of where they finished): ZZ2 Groen, Supaquick DWK, Buffelsberg, ZZ2 team 2, Rob Spices, Trophy Motors 1, Agri-box, Complete Gardens, NTS Bosbou, Tro-phy Motors 2, Adam’s Cafe and Limpopo Tyres.

The opening round of the Northern Regions Rally Championship will be decided in the Tzaneen area tomorrow.

This unique event is the only round in the championship that offers real forest rallying. It is a must for any motoring enthusiast and will feature rally cars from years past to modern day rally machines. The thrill of seeing rally cars driven in excess of 140 km/h on a narrow forest track over bumps and around turns is an awe inspiring sight, and with Tzaneen’s scenery as a backdrop this will truly be any motorsport enthusiast’s dream.

The event starts at Letaba Packers at Politsi, only about 12 kilometers from Tzaneen on the R36 towards Modjadjiskloof. There fans and spectators will be able to get to know the drivers and see the service crews in action. The cars will leave at 10:00 for the first of five timed special stages in the plantations.

Stage one is only 8 km from the start and will offer serious action and great viewing possibilities for spectators at the bottom of an 800 m firebreak followed by two 90 degree corners.

There are spectator points at stages two and three as well, which are repeated as stages four and five5, with cars visible for 2 km as they negotiate forestry roads through cleared plantations at one of the spectator points.

All spectator points are within 10 km from the service park and no more than 15 km from each other.

Detailed spectator guides with a map will be available at the start or can be downloaded from www.rallyworld.net - (http://www.rallyworld.net/index.php/rally-docs) For more information, call David Brown on 015 307 5165 or 083 560 8622.

Hoede af vir die Vossies se eerste netbalspan! Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se wintersportspanne het hul jaarlikse afspraak met die Hoërskool Menlopark in Pretoria weer nagekom — en die Vossies se eerste netbalspan het gekiedenis gemaak, toe hulle die stadsjapies oortuigend met 35-27 geklop het.

Dit was die Vossies se eerste oorwinning teen Menlopark, wat in die nommer 1-posisie onder die toptwintig netbalskole in die land is! Van meet af aan was dit ‘n baie gelykop stryd. In die eerste kwart van die wedstryd het Menlopark met een doel voorgeloop.

In die tweede kwart van dié wedstryd het die Vossies die voortou geneem en met twee doele voorgeloop. Gedurende die tweede helfte van die wedstryd het die Vossies hul voorsprong vergroot, met byna foutlose spel deur Nsuku Makalana.

Die ander netbalspanne se tellings was ook aansienlik kleiner as in die verlede, en soos volg: o.14A: 21-30; o.14B: 12-23; o.15A: 11-27; o.15B: 6-18; o.16A: 12-19; o.16B: 21-33; o.17A: 10-26.

Die Vossies het die groot gaping tussen hulle en die netbalspanne van Menlopark begin verklein en sien uit na volgende jaar se kragmetings.

Ook die Vossies se hokkiespanne het beter tellings behaal as verlede jaar. Hulle moes op Menlopark se Astro-hokkieveld speel, wat ‘n nuwe uitdaging bied. Danksy goeie samespel en veggees het die Vossies se o.15A-span (meisies) hul wedstryd met een doel gewen, aangeteken deur Ntsakisi Maluleke. Die o.16A-span het vir die derde agtereenvolgende jaar gelykop gespeel. Die eerste seunshokkiespan het ook goed gespeel en met slegs een doel verloor.

Die Vossies se rugbyspanne het goeie oefening teen Menlopark gekry. Menlopark se eerste rugbyspan is op

die oomblik nommer drie in die land op Rugby 365 se ranglys.

Die Vossies se o.14A’s het 39-5 verloor. Die B-span het egter die bordjies verhang en met 27-24 gewen. Die o.15A’s het 15-0 verloor, maar die B-span wen met ‘n spoggerige telling van 25-7. Die o.16A- en -B-spanne het met onderskeidelik 17-3 en 50-0 verloor.

Die derde span het in ‘n taai wedstryd net-net met 3-0 verloor, terwyl die tweeds met 24-10 die onderspit moes delf. Die eerste span het in die eerste helfte van hul stryd mooi gehou en toe rustyd aanbreek was die telling slegs 5-0 teen hulle. Menlopark het egter laat in die wedstryd twee drieë gedruk, om 29-5 te wen.

Die Vossies speel more tuis teen Helpmekaar Kollege van Johannesburg.

Bulletin

Oubal is KoosKakie ewige dank verskuldig dat hy verlede naweek tydens ons spanpraatjie ‘n uiters plofbare situasie met takt, insig en tydsberekening kon beredder.

‘Tja, die moeilikheid het begin toe ArthurIngelsman oplet dat GertGrensvegter ‘n seisoenale sinusaanval met homeopatiese druppeltjies probeer bestry. Raak ou AI toe heel ballisties en wys GG daarop dat die Britse Parlement (“bêk houm”!) al in 2010 bevind het dat daar geen wetenskaplike bewys bestaan dat homeopatie enigsins werk nie. GG het daai Clint Eastwood trek op sy gesig gekry en onwillekeurig sy hand op die .44 Magnum op sy heup gesit, terwyl hy in ‘n hewige argument met ou AI verval het.

Gelukkig het KK tussenbeide getree en verontwaardig opgemerk dat die Britse Parlement nie meer seggenskap het oor hoe sinusaanvalle hier in Afrika behandel moet word nie. Boonop, het KK bygevoeg, Klipdrift

wat so met water verdun is dat dit nie meer die Hoofleier tot ‘n inval in Bophuthatswana kan inspireer nie, dien ook geen doel nie.

Oubal kon sien hoe dié stukkie filosofie die “myk maai dei”-uitdrukking van GG se gesig af vee en ons kon ons tot belangriker sake wend, soos die uitgelekte voorgestelde nuwe formaat vir Superrakbie vanaf 2016.

‘Tja, dit blyk dat die Aussies en NZ uiteindelik vir SARU hul politieke sin gegee het, om die Kings as ons sesde Super(!)span toe te laat — en op die koop toe sommer ‘n

Argentynse span ook ingegooi het, tesame met ‘n tot-nou-toe ongeïdentifiseerde span wat nugter weet waarvandaan gaan kom. Welkom by die Super18 in 2016!

Oubal verwelkom natuurlik die vermindering in plaaslike derbies wat die nuwe formaat gaan meebring, want hoeveel keer wil ons dan die Curriebeker in een jaar oor speel? Oubal kan hom ook tot ‘n mate met die spelers vereenselwig, dat daar (dalk) minder oorsee gereis gaan word, maar andersins dink hy die ANZAC’s het ons ‘n .44 Magnum in die hand gestop om onsself in die voet mee te skiet.

Met die nuwe formaat gaan die helfte van ons spanne in ‘n gegewe jaar nie teen NZ’e spanne speel nie en die ander helfte nie teen die Aussies nie (behalwe vir die uitspeelrondes). Soos sake staan bevind vier van ons vyf spanne hulle tans in die onderste helfte van die Super15-punteleer, wat beteken dat ons

onsself hoofsaaklik gaan meet aan ons eie ondergemiddeldheid. Dít bo en behalwe die feit dat ‘n bykomstige SA span ons beperkte talent net nog verder gaan verdun!

‘Tja, Oubal moet bieg dat ‘n homeopatie-argument vir hom en sy vrinne deesdae meer opwinding inhou as ‘n sogenaamde superrakbiewedstryd (behalwe vir iets soos ‘n skaars ScallaBill Burger-aangee!). Superrakbie was op sy beste toe daar net twaalf spanne was en met elke daaropvolgende verdunning het die belangstelling gekwyn. Oubal hou dus nie asem op vir die Super18 nie.

ArthurIngelsman sê hy is nie heeltemal gekant teen homeopatie nie — “Klipdrift daailoetid toe die ekstent dat dêr ies naffieng left ien de konkoksjin bat wôtir woeld bie ên eksillint fieks fôr elkôlissem!”

“There’s a certain power in a three piece band. The more people you put on stage, the more diluted it becomes.” — Greg Lake

Lekker rugby moreLetaba Rugbyklub se eerste en tweede spanne kom more in hul eerste wedstryde in die Boet Fick-liga teen Pietersburg Dorp te staan. Die wedstryde word tuis op Letaba se veld beslis, om 15:00 (tweedes) en 16:00 (eerste span).

‘n Bestuurslid van die klub het Vrydag gesê die wedstrydplan vir albei spanne is om lekker hardlooprugby te speel. “Ons is almal voos vir skoprugby en Letaba se spelers het self die lus vir hardlooprugby uitgespreek.”

Rugbyliefhebbers kan dus moremiddag gerus opruk na die skouterrein en agteroor gaan sit om lekker plaaslike rugby te geniet. Ons spanne en die klub het ondersteuning nodig, want almal weet dat rugby in die platteland maar sukkel om kop bo water te hou.

Nsuku Makalana, die woelwater doel van Ben Vorster se eerste netbalspan, in aksie

teen Menlopark.

Die tennisspanne van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster het in liga-wedstryde teen PHS, Merensky, Louis Trichardt, Curro Heuwelkruin, Frans du Toit en Stanford Lake College gespeel en algeheel tweede na PHS geëindig. Hier is GC Botha, Iseldri Janse van Rensburg, Eben Roos, Elma Pohl,

Michael du Plessis, Juané Gubitz, Mauritz Pohl en Christelle Smit.

Die SA Boogskuts se 2014 binneshuise kampi-oenskappe is in Kemptonpark gehou en 156 top-skuts uit al nege provinsies het mekaar die stryd aangesê om te bepaal wie se hand-oog-koördina-sie die beste is.

Merensky Boogskietklub se negentien span-lede het besonder goed gevaar en spog nou met drie SA kampioene: Cheney Kleinhans, Ri-kus Harmse en Arno Harmse. Al drie het goue medaljes verower.

Twee skuts het silwer medaljes verower: Canell Jackson en Simone Smith. Brons medaljes is deur Beneche Jackson en Ricus Warmenhoven verower, terwyl Renart Botha ook sy nasionale

kleure en

Cheney Kleinhans, Ricus en Schalk Warmen-hoven hul provinsiale kleure verwerf het.

Intussen het Plasie-skuts ook aan die De Neck 3D Shoot deelgeneem. Hulle sê dit was een van die lekkerste kompetisies sover vanjaar. Die kompetisie is goeie voorbereiding vir die jagsei-soen wat voorlê. Die skuts is in afdelings inge-deel, op grond van pylgewig. Al die skuts wat die kompetisie bygewoon het, het dit baie geniet en nie een van die skuts het leë hande huis toe gegaan nie.

Ricus Warmenhoven was tweede in die B-afdeling (pylgewig: 420-519 g) en as prys kan hy ’n koedoekoei skiet. In die C-afdeling (pylgewig: 300-419 g) was Renart Botha tweede

en Ruan Genis derde.
