STANDERTON - Dark streets and a crime stricken area compelled Standerton SuperSpar to intervene and approach the Lekwa Munici-pality of Standerton for a so-lution.

The management of Stan-derton SuperSpar opted to provide fuel, personnel and a ‘cherry picker’ which is a small truck with a lift that can reach the bulbs of the lamp poles.

“ET’s Elektries” supplied the vehicle and experienced electricians to help and re-place some bulbs of street lights in Kosmos Park. Mr Henk Pretorius of Lekwa Lo-cal Municipality helped with the project and supplied them with electrical equipment and some light bulbs.

Impala Street and Rooibok Crescent are two streets that were tackled and the reason for this is to use these two streets as an experiment to see whether the wiring inside the lamp posts is still intact and that it can operate for long hours at a time. This will now only serve as an experiment to see whether it is viable to continue with other streets. SuperSpar and the Municipa-lity will then sit and discuss the way forward. To replace the old street lights with new LED lights will cost about R4 000 per unit. JD

Trial for street lights

New street lights were installed in portions of Impala street and Rooibok Crescent as an experiment to see if it will be viable in other streets. Standerton SuperSpar took the initiative and with the help of “ET’s Elektries”, dark and crime stricken areas are now well lit again.

STANDERTON - A Man from Sakhile and his wife died on Friday, 22 April, on the R23 be-tween Greylingstad and Standerton.

The head-on collision happened in the early hours when the couple was tra velling in a Mazda bakkie. It is reported that the couple was on their way to Standerton from Gauteng when the vehi-cle they were travelling in collided head-on with a lorry that was travelling from Standerton to Jo-hannesburg. Although Val SAPS, who attended the scene, could not establish the cause of the accident, it is assumed that one of the vehicles was attempting to overtake close to the barrier line in the misty conditions.

The couple was identified as Mr Nkosana Makhoba, aged 40 and his wife Sibongile Mkhwanazi, who was in her late twenties. They died instantly and the emergency services had to use the jaws-of-life to retrieve their bodies from the wreckage. It is alleged that the driver of the lorry, which was slightly damaged, escaped from the scene. Greylingstad police were not availa-ble to confirm if the runaway driver of the lorry was eventually found or not. The family of the deceased have been officially informed after the bodies were identified. DM ‘n Nuwe tendens wat deur kapers gebruik word om motoriste

sover te kry om te stop, is om klere met plastiek bottels op te stop sodat dit soos ‘n liggaam lyk en dit dan langs die pad of by plaashekke te laat lê. Sodra motoriste stop om ondersoek in te stel word hulle gekaap. Twee sulke voorvalle is reeds gerapporteer, een ongeveer 20 meter vanaf ‘n plaashek en een naby die ingang van ‘n bekende dam. Die publiek word gemaan om nie te stop nie, maar om eerder die SAPD of Kasselman Veiligheidsdienste te skakel.

This man is one of two assailants sought in connection with a house robbery in Kosmos Park where they stole the home owner’s handgun. Their Modus Operandi is to overpower victims and then steal items from their houses. This man is believed to be aged at around 28-30 years and he is of a tall and slender build. He has a dark complexion and has course facial skin.

STANDERTON - A businessman arrived at 09:00 to open his cash loans business on Tuesday, 19 April, in Charl Cilliers Street. Little did he know that thugs were waiting to strike. An anonymous eye witness reported that they were sitting in front of a furniture store with a colleague when the businessman arrived in his car with two assistants inside. He parked the car and as soon as he opened the car door, four unknown men came running toward the car carrying firearms. They pulled him out of the car and ordered him to go down on his knees - the two occupants of the car were also ordered out at gun point.

The occupants of the car were all searched by the

STANDERTON - Police have opened an inquest following the discovery of a man hanging from a tree on Thursday morning, 21 April. Lieutenant Nhlabathi of Standerton SAPS reported that police were called to the scene after a passerby made the shocking discovery. The man who has been identified as the 50-year-old Henry Magubane was originally from Newcastle and in the employment of Earlybird Farms.

According to SAPS there were no visible injuries found on his body and this prompted police to suspect suicide.

Lieutenant Nhlabathi confirmed that an inquest has been opened at the station for investigation. A post mortem will be conducted to determine the cause of death. The body of the deceased is being kept at the government mortuary at Standerton Hospital. DM

Man found hanging from treeSelfless act of bravery

Mr Machawe Magagula received a certificate for bravery from the principal of Laerskool Jeugkrag for his selfless act of bravery. Magagula drove a bus with the school’s netball players when it was involved in an accident. Magagula kept his cool and prevented any injuries that the children might have sustained.

STANDERTON - The staff and pu-pils of Laerskool Jeugkrag wish to thank Mr Machawe Magagula who works as a driver for MPS tours (Orange Bus Ser-vices).

An accident happened on Friday, 15 April, when the netball girls of Jeugkrag were driving to Volksrust. A vehicle drove straight into the bus and Magagula took control of the situation and did not swerve out. The vehicle was badly dam-aged but the bus of MPS Tours was only slightly damaged on the front.

The principal of Laerskool Jeugkrag, Mr Gerhard Maritz, handed a certificate to Machawe for his brave deed of keep-ing calm under severe circumstances. Mr Magagula had many people in tears when he told the learners that he was only an instrument in God’s hands and that it was actually God who protected him and the learners of Laerskool Jeugkrag. JD

Car hijacked in broad daylight

thugs. “When the drama unfolded we both ran inside the furniture shop to take cover,” said the witness.

The witnesses then heard tyres squealing and saw the car driving off, and the occupants were left lying on the ground. The victims told SAPS that they did not suspect anything would happen when they drove into the parking lot that morning. They did not see anybody until they stopped the car.

Lieutenant Nhlabathi said the thugs stole

cash and two cell phones from the victims before they drove off with the car, a C-Class Mercedes which is metallic grey in colour, with registration number HWX 688 MP. An undisclosed amount of cash for use in the cash loans business was in the car. Nobody was injured during the hijacking and unconfirmed reports suggest that two BMWs were seen parked in Charl Cilliers Street.

They too reportedly drove off at one time without anybody taking notice of the registration numbers. Police have appealed to anybody who might have more information to report it at the police station. A case of vehicle hijacking is under investigation. DM


But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, “Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.” (Luke 13:12)

When you have a need, do you pray or do you plead? Do you begin your prayers with words like, “Please God, please! God, I beg You to have mercy!” Prayers that plead and beg imply that your heavenly Father is not willing to do it. Yet, He is far more gracious and willing to give to you than you are willing to ask, think or imagine. (Ephesians 3:20). He desires above all things that you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers. (3 John 1:2) In fact, long before you have a need; God has already met that need. Long before you knew you needed a Saviour, He sent His Son to be your Saviour.

This is your God! He is a good God. So when you beg Him for something, you are actually saying that He is reluctant to give and needs to be persuaded strongly before He will move. Yet, He is

not like that. Jesus knew the heart of the Father. When He saw the woman bound with a spirit of infirmity, He did not pray, “Oh Father! She has been suffering for 18 long years! I beseech You, Father, have mercy on her. Please, please heal her!” No, when Jesus saw her, He immediately proclaimed, “Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity,” because He knew the heart of the Father. He knew that the Father wanted her delivered from her crippling condition. At the end of a church service, I don’t stand and pray, “Oh God, please bless Your people. Oh God, do keep them. Oh God, be ever so gracious to them!” Instead, I proclaim, “The Lord bless you. The Lord keep you. The Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you!”

Beloved, when you pray, proclaim your healing, protection and provision because your Father’s heart overflows with love for you. And when you declare it, He sanctions it. When you declare it, He establishes it!

STANDERTON - “Sy was ‘n steunpilaar en toegewyde onderwyser wat vir 24 jaar aan ons skool verbonde was.”

Dít is hoe Laerskool Standerton vir me Riana de Witt – ‘n passievolle en ywerige opvoeder wat aan die einde van April ‘n baie groot hoofstuk in haar lewe afsluit wanneer sy uit die onderwys tree – onthou.

Sy het in haar tyd by Laerskool Standerton honderde leerlinge onder haar vlerk geneem en haar passie vir kinders en onderrig vir 16 van die 24 jaar as juniorde

partementshoof by dié skool uitgeleef. Volgens die skool het sy beslís ‘n blywende indruk op elke leerling se wel en weë gehad en sal sy deur menige leerling en oudleerling vir haar saggeaarde en liefdevolle ingesteldheid ont hou word.

Me De Witt gaan haar in Pretoria vestig en beplan om haar welverdiende aftrede in ontspannende luim deur te bring.

Laerskool Standerton se ouers, leerlinge en personeel wens haar ‘n wonderlike en geseënde aftrede toe. “Ons salueer u!” DK

Dit is met groot hartseer dat Hoërskool Ermelo verneem het van die heengaan van Gerrie Halgreen op Maandag, 18 April. Hy was van 1996 tot en met sy aftrede in 2007 aan die skool verbonde waartydens sy werk as faktotum áltyd sy trots was.

Vir al die leerlinge, ouers en onderwysers was hy as ‘Oom Gerrie’ bekend. Geliefd, vriendelik en altyd bereid om te help – só het ons hom geken.

Hy en sy vrou, Ria, wat ook al oorlede is, was ‘n gedugte span – sy as matrone

by die meisieskoshuis en hy as die faktotum. Die Erries was ook húlle kinders en om ekstra ure te werk en die ekstra myl te loop vir die skool en sy mense, was nooit vir hulle ‘n kwessie nie.

Ons bring hulde aan hom en is dankbaar vir al die jare wat hy by die skool betrokke was. Ons wil graag ons diep meegevoel aan sy kinders en kleinkinders betuig. Mag hulle in hierdie tyd ons Hemelse Vader se troos en teenwoordigheid ervaar. – Hoof, personeel en leerlinge van Hoërskool Ermelo

Solidariteit Helpende Hand het Maandag, 25 April, ‘n skenking van R10 000 aan Hoërskool Standerton oorhandig. Dit volg nadat die skool 15 nuwe ondersteuners vir Helpende Hand Standerton gewerf het. Hier ontvang die skoolhoof, Mnr Hennie Pretorius, die skenking van Me Annemie Draper en Surina Dippenaar van Solidariteit Helpende Hand Standerton.

SHS glimlag na ontvangs van skenkingSTANDERTON - Solidariteit Helpende Hand se Standerton-tak het ‘n projek in samewerking met Hoërskool Standerton van stapel gestuur waar die skool ‘n kans gestaan het om ‘n R10 000 skenking te ontvang indien hulle 15 ondersteu-ners werf.

Solidariteit Helpende Hand is ‘n nasionale organisasie sonder winsbejag en fokus op die voorkoming, verbreking en verligting van Afri-kaner-armoede, veral onder kinders, bejaardes en gestremdes en het besluit om Hoërskool Stan-derton te nader vir ondersteuning. Die skool kan hul eie diskresie gebruik oor hoe en waar om die geld aan te wend en daar is nie voorskrifte aan hulle gestel nie. Hierdie is ‘n deurlopende pro-

jek en die skool staan ‘n kans om nog R10 000 te ontvang vir elke 15 nuwe lede wat gewerf word.

Annemie Draper en Surina Dippenaar het die skenking names die Standerton tak aan mnr Hen-nie Pretorius oorhandig.

Die Helpende hand tak in Standerton gaan ook Saterdag, 30 April, vanaf 11:00 worsbroodjies teen R20 elk voor Standerton SuperSpar as fonds-insamelingsprojek verkoop.

Die Stan-derton tak skenk elke paar weke nie-bederfbare voedsel aan hierdie mense en die gemeenskap is welkom om enige vorm van donasie vir hierdie barmhartigheidsaak te maak. JD


VOLKSRUST - Luyanda Ngwenya has done it! This 18-year-old pupil of Hoërskool Volksrust has just qualified as a finalist for the Miss Teen Commonwealth South Africa pageant after a long and intense semi-final round on Saturday, 2 April.

The proceedings were kicked off by interviews held at the Protea Hotel in Wanderers, Johannesburg, where all 41 contestants were gathered and expected to do presentations about what exactly they are doing for their community. According to her coach, Zahnie Harris of Image Models, Ngwenya was very pleased with the exercise as it enabled her to elaborate more about what she has done thus far.

In the end, her charity work around the Volksrust Cares organisation impressed even the organisers of the pageant.

The final stage of the qualifying round involved

the contestants doing ramp modelling which was followed by a round of interviews. It was then announced that Ngwenya has gone through to the finals and that the grand finale will take place on 2 July in Pretoria where the winner will be crowned.

“I want to make the community proud and will do everything in my power to bring the crown home,” Ngwenya exclaimed moments after becoming a finalist, echoing another Volksrust native’s journey to success – Rolene Strauss who was crowned Miss World in 2015.

Ngwenya is the only contestant from Mpumalanga to be part of the pageant and is still expected to continue with her charity work and to obtain more sponsors for her journey. Feel free to like her Facebook page, Luyanda Ngwenya Miss Teen Commonwealth South Africa – Finalist, for the latest updates and behind-the-scenes titbits. DK

STANDERTON AfriForum’s Stander-ton branch launched the second phase of its tree trimming project on 23 April. The first phase of this project was launched on 12 March during which all trees from Stander Street up until Schwickard Street were trimmed seeing as they frequently led to various street lights and electrical wiring being out of order.

During the second phase, those trees in Nelson Mandela Drive preventing street lights from illuminating streets and touch-ing electrical wiring were trimmed. This ac-tion also decreases the chance of electricity interruptions if the wind blows.

The Lekwa Local Municipality neglected these trees on a regular basis, with the con-sequence being that Standerton experienced various electricity interruptions. In total, more than 50 bakkie loads full of rubbish were carted away. “We also intend launch-ing the third phase of this project later in the year, where trees in the diagonal streets will be trimmed,” said Hillel Coetzer, Afri-Forum’s Regional Coordinator for Mpuma-langa West.

You can become involved at your lo-cal AfriForum branch. SMS “TAKKE” to 45350 (R1) or call 072 947 2100 to offer your assistance. JD

STANDERTON - Johan Nel (58), lid van die internasionale Brothers for Life organi-sasie het Donderdag, 21 April, by ‘n be-kende gastehuis in Standerton oornag.

Johan het op 16 April in Olivedale, Gauteng met sy staptog van 1 642 km begin om fondse in te samel vir ses jong kinders wat dié organisasie van die straat gered het.

Hy sal van Olivedale tot in Amanzimtoti (794km) in KwaZulu-Natal stap én weer terug na Olivedale (848km) en daarmee by 36 dorpe aandoen.

Johan stap alleen met geen rugsteun voer-tuie nie en maak staat op gastehuise en vakansie oorde in elke dorp om slaapplek aan hom te bied.

Die kinders, waarvan drie skoolgaande ouderdom is en twee nog nie eers geregi-streer is nie, is deur hul grootouers aan huis geneem, maar daar is ‘n wesenlike geldtekort om vir die ses kinders te sorg en skoolfonds, skoolklere en gewone dag-tot-dag uitgawes te dek.

Johan, ‘n oud polisieman en verkeersbe-ampte is as gevolg van ‘n werksbesering medies ongeskik verklaar. Na vele knie en rug operasies is titanium penne in sy regter-been, van sy voet tot bo sy knie, ingeplant.

Hy het besluit om te begin stap om sy gesondheid te bevorder maar moes noodge-dwonge in 2013 vir ses maande rus nadat infeksie in sy been ingetree het.

Dokters het hom aangeraai om op te hou stap, anders kan hy sy regterbeen verloor. Daarna het hy by ‘n atletiekklub aangesluit en het tot op hede heelwat maratons gestap, waar hy elke keer sy tye verbeter het.

Roberto Menego, die stigterslid van Brothers for Life en die medestigter van

STANDERTON - Die talent vloei vanjaar behoorlik by Van der Merwe Ouditeure, aangesien vyf van dié firma se klerke met verskeie graad- en nagraadse diplomaprestasies spog.

Elaine Claassen, Hennie van der Merwe en Natalie Gebhardt het almal vanjaar hul eerste kwalifikasies behaal – Elaine haar B.Com Geoktrooieerde Rekenmeesterskapgraad aan die Noord-wes-Universiteit, Hennie sy BCom Rekeningkunde-graad aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch en Natalie haar BCompt Re-keningkundige Wetenskapgraad aan die Universiteit van Suid-Afrika (Unisa).

Dié firma spog ook met twee nagraadse prestasies wat deur twee vlymskerp klerke behaal is.

Reinette de Beer het haar nagraadse diploma in toegepaste rekeningkundige wetenskap aan Unisa behaal. Sy het reeds haar BCompt Rekeningkundige Wetenskapgraad behaal en het in Januarie haar eerste SAICA (Suid-Afrikaanse Instituut vir Geoktrooieerde Rekenmeesters)-eksamen geslaag, wat beteken dat sy teen die einde van die jaar ten volle as ‘n geoktrooieerde rekenmeester gekwalifiseer sal wees.

Esmarié Botha het op haar beurt haar nagraadse diploma in rekeningkundige wetenskap aan Unisa behaal. Sy het ook reeds haar BCompt Rekeningkundige Wetenskapgraad behaal.

Die toekoms lyk helder vir hierdie vyf slimkoppe. Van der Merwe Ouditeure wens elkeen hartlik met hul prestasie geluk. DK

Samaritaan stap 1 642 km

Johan Nel (links) en Rober-to Menego (regs) saam met die ses kinders waar-voor hy besig is om 1 642 km te stap as ‘n fonds- insamelingspro-jek. Die kinders se grootouers het hulle inge-neem nadat die kinders van die straat gered is. Die organisasie Brothers for Life het reeds sake teen die ouers geopen wat, vol-gens inligting, deesdae as kar-wagte in Pieters-burg werk. Die grootouers het ingestem dat die kinders se gesig-te in die media geopenbaar mag word.

Sisters for Life sê dat die organisasie ‘n groep mense is wat saam-staan teen mishandeling, verkragting en afknouery van vrouens en kinders.

Johan se vordering kan op sy Facebook bladsy ‘Johan Nel is go-ing to do the 1642 km walk for our 6 angels’ gevolg word en hy kan ook aangemoedig of geskakel word op 076 096 1101.

Bankbesonderhede vir kontant donasies is ook op die Facebook bladsy beskikbaar. JD

ERMELO - Strawwe kompetisie het verlede week op Hoërskool Ermelo se topskuts gewag toe hulle aan die derde provinsiale prysskietkompetisie van die jaar deelgeneem het.

Die Ermeloërs het hul goed van hul taak gekwyt en agt skuts opgelewer wat hul persoonlike beste tellings verbeter het en deurdring om aan die volgende prysskietkompetisie deel te neem.

Die skool se toppresteerder, Roelof Breytenbach, het sy persoonlike beste telling na 1357 verbeter, terwyl Paul Morkel en Marko Roets met

Errie-skuts tref die kolskoot


STANDERTON - Die gesogte NWU-Puk-win-tersportreeks het die afgelope naweek op ‘n hoë noot vir Hoërskool Standerton geëindig toe twee van die skool se netbalspanne hul teenstanders in die finaal laat knak het. Hierdie segetog het vroegoggend begin toe die busse Saterdag by Hoërskool Dr Malan in Meyerton aangekom het waar strawwe kompetisie op die Standertonners gewag het.

Die o-14- en o-17 A-netbalspanne het albei naelbytstryde beleef, maar het daarin geslaag om hul kragmetings 18-16 en 15-14, onderskeidelik, te beklink. Met die eerste ligawedstryde van die Mpumalanga-liga wat eerskomende naweek af-skop, betree hierdie twee spanne die stryd breë-bors as Puk-kampioene.

Spanne wat Saterdag ook plekke in die alge-hele top drie losgeslaan het, is die o-14 A-hok-

kiespan wat hul kragmeting 4-1 gewen het en die algehele tweedeplek in die Puk-reeks losgeslaan het. Die volgende spanne het almal in die derde-plek geëindig: die o-16 A- en tweederugbyspan en die o-15 A-, tweede- en eerstehokkiespan.

Die hokkiemeisies het veral vir kookwaterspel gesorg, aangesien ál Hoërskool Standerton se spanne wat in die algehele derdeplek geëindig het, skoonskip met geen punte teen hulle gemaak het. Die wentellings was 2-0 vir die o-15 A’s en die tweedespan en ‘n allemintige 5-0 vir die eerstespan.

Hoërskool Standerton sal Saterdag, 30 April, teen Hoërskool Ermelo in die eerste ligawed-stryde van die Mpumalanga-liga te staan kom.

Hou die skool se Facebookbladsy gerus vir meer inligting en die nuutste verwikkelinge dop. (Uitslae saamgestel deur Brendan Coetzee) DK

SHS lewer dubbele NWU-Puk-kampioene op

ERMELO - Ná ‘n vuurwarm semi-finaal wat as ‘n segetog beskryf kan word, het Ligbron Akademie vir Tegnologie se rugby-, netbal- en hokkiespanne hulself behoorlik oortref tydens die eindstryd van die Superreeks wat die afgelope naweek op Hoërskool Brandwag se velde in Benoni beslis is.

Die skool is as die algehele tweedebeste rugbyskool in die reeks aangewys nadat Hoërskool Brandwag hulle met net een punt vir die grootprys uitgestof het. ‘n Hoogtepunt tydens die rugbyfinaal was toe Ligbron Akademie vir Tegnologie se eerstespan daarin geslaag het om vir die derde agtereenvolgende jaar as kampioene in hul afdeling gekroon te word. Die span het Hoërskool Brandwag oortuigend met 13-0 geklop met drieë wat deur Eddie Dludlu en Johnny Blaauw gedruk is en ‘n strafskop wat deur Gert Cronjé verdoel is.

Die tweedespan het óók skoonskip gemaak toe hulle met 19-0 teen Hoërskool Tuine van Pretoria afgereken het en is gevolglik as Superreekskampioene bekroon. Die o-16’s het op hul beurt die bronsmedalje opgeraap, terwyl die o-14’s en o-15’s met vyfdeplekke tevrede moes wees.

Wat die hokkie betref, het die Ermeloërs twee spanne opgelewer wat as kampioene in hul afdelings uit die stryd getree het. Die o-14’s het hul kragmeting teen Hoërskool Brandwag met 4-0 beklink, terwyl die o-16’s hul teenstanders van Hoërskool Secunda met ‘n massiewe telling van 10-0 geklop het.

Die netbalspanne het gemengde uitslae opgelewer. Nie een span kom daarin slaag om ‘n top 3-plek op te raap nie, maar die meisies het nietemin vir skouspelagtige spel gesorg. Ligbron Akademie vir Tegnologie se uitblinkspan, die tweedes, het swaarde met Hoërskool Wagpos van Brits gekruis en hul teenstanders met 10-7 laat les opsê.

Noudat die Superreeks op ‘n hoogtepunt afgesluit is, is Ligbron Akademie vir Tegnologie volstoom aan die voorberei vir
