CONSTANTIA/WYNBERG

“Tel l ing it as it is”

JUANITA WILLIAMS

SEWAGE illegally dumped into a storm-water manhole in Spaanschemat RiverRoad, Constantia is being linked to pollu-tion of the Pagasvlei stream.

Councillor Liz Brunette has received com-plaints from Willow Road residents.A resident, who does notwant to be named,

reports that her gardener witnessed a truckdumping effluent into the stormwater man-hole in October.She was horrified and reported it to the

City’s Water Pollution Inspector MelissaTang.Two weeks later she heard that an official

fromWaterworks in Kendal Road had caughta truck driver dumping effluent from porta-ble toilets into the same manhole. The resi-

dent suspects the drivers are doing this toavoid driving to the Water Treatment Centrein Strandfontein.“It is too easy to lift the plastic lid on the

manhole and get rid of the stuff quickly,” shesays.The fact that the effluent ismixedwith blue

chemicals compounds the pollution, shepoints out.Commercial portable toilet companies are

required to empty the toilets at water treat-ment centres.The woman, who has a municipal sewage

pipe running through her property, has expe-rienced plenty of water problems in the past.But these are soon sorted out because she

has had “fantastic service from thewater pol-lution inspector and the water officials at theKendal Road Waterworks”.Brunette has reported the matter to Gavin

Heugh of the City’s Stormwater and DrainsDepartment and other officials, but she ap-peals to residents, saying: “Please look out forthis truck.Takeaphoto or takedown the (reg-istration) number, sowe can trace the ownersand issue them with a fine.”Further down inWillow Road, another res-

ident complains that the Pagasvlei streamwhich runs throughhis garden is discolouredand the water has turned khaki.This is evident in this photo.He says when he first bought the property

there were clawless otters and waterbirds inhis garden, but all the wildlife has now disap-peared possibly because of the polluted wa-ter.He sats he has complained to Council offi-

cials.“Eventually an official checked the water

in the stream, but so far there have been no

answers,’’ he says.However, Philemon Mashoko, Director of

the Water and Sanitation Department, saysthe complaint has been investigated by thedepartment and, to date, the inspector hasnotfound any evidence of a discharge at Spaan-schemat River Road.The Wastewater bylaw states “no person

may, exceptwith thewritten consent ofCoun-cil, and subject to such conditions it may im-pose, discharge or permit the discharge of in-dustrial effluent directly or indirectly intoany wastewater system”.The offence carries an admission of guilt

fine of R1 000.“Permission to discharge directly into a

public manhole without supervision of acouncil official will not be granted.”Contact the City’s call centre on

0860 103 089 or SMS 31373.

Swimmers cautionedSUMMER fun may be beckoning, buttake time to ensureyouandyour family’ssafety at the beach and around water.

The WaterWise Academy, the NationalSea Rescue Institute’s (NSRI) educationalarm, encourages you to have a safety planin place before you need it and this way, pre-vent panic.Make sure all family members know what

to do if something goes wrong. Programmecellphones with the relevant emergencynumbers before you need them. If a child isseparated from your group have a predeter-minedmeeting place. Andrew Ingram, of theWaterWise Academy, provides some basicsafety advice that may save your life.

. BathersChildren should have responsible adult

supervision around any water – including abath, bucket and swimming pool – at alltimes. Choose a beach that has lifesavers onduty and swim between their flags.Watch out for rip currents – the greatest

cause of drowning accidents along our coast.A rip current looks like rivers of water flow-ing fast out to sea against the incomingwaves.If you are caught in a rip current you’ll be

swept out to sea faster than you’re able toswim towards the shore. Don’t try to swimagainst the current. Raise one arm in the airand wave to alert people on the shore.The rip current’s force dissipates the fur-

ther out to sea it gets. At the first chance youget swim parallel to the beach until you’refree of the rip, then use the incoming wavesto help you to shore.

. Boaters and paddlersWatch the weather forecast carefully and

be prepared if conditions should change ad-versely. Always let a responsible personknow your planned route and estimated re-turn time.Make sure you stick to these times and

routes. Ensure this personwill call the NSRIif you do not return as scheduled. Check thatyour craft and equipment are in good work-ing order. Wear a lifejacket at all times.Keep your cellphone, with fully charged

batteries, in a watertight plastic sleeve at-tached to your lifejacket. Carry red distressflares, a signalling mirror or CD, a referee’swhistle, a waterproof torch and wear bright-ly coloured gear, a hat and sunscreen andkeep well hydrated. Make sure you haveenough drinking water.

. AnglersAlways wear a lifejacket while fishing

close to the shore’s edge, especially on cliffsor rocks. Be aware of the high and low tidesand never turn your back to the sea. Takeextra precautions during the bi-monthlyspring tides. Rocks you know as always be-ing out of the water may not be safe at theseextra high tides.

. In an emergencyEveryone living along the coast or visiting

the coast should find out what their nearestNSRI emergency telephone number is.A very important emergency phone

number to store in your phone is 10177. An-other good emergency number, free from acellphone is 112. Visit the NSRI website formore information and contact numbers atwww.searescue.org.za.

For more than a decade teens from theSouthern Suburbs have been motivated andinspired at the annual Everfresh youth

camp. Everfresh is run by young people intheir late teens and early twenties for thebenefit of their peers and especially forthose that are in the earlier stages of theirhigh school careers. One reason why the 4day event is so effective is because it isn'torganized and run by adults and authorityfigures but by those who are just a fewsteps ahead of those they are leading.January 2013 is EVERFRESH 11.

Tables turned on con manJUANITA WILLIAMS

A CON MAN picked on the wrongperson when he placed a boguscellphone order for party plattersfor 150 people.

A Bergvliet woman, who wishes toremain unnamed, received a call onher cellphone from a man claiming tobe from the Human Settlements de-partment.

He said he was organising a func-tion at City Hall and needed a caterer.She sent him a quote for just underR13 000 and requested a 50% deposit.

“He was calling and correspondingwith me the whole week and on theSaturday morning he told me hewould process the payment,’’ shesays. “At 10:45 I received an SMS noti-fying me a payment of R15 800 hadbeen made into my account. I realisedimmediately he had overpaid andcalled the man. He asked me to trans-fer the balance out of my account andI smelled a rat. I told him I only workfrom within the bank and it wouldhave to wait until the Monday. Hestarted to panic and asked if I coulddo the payment at a retail store. Irushed to my bank to see what typeof deposit it was and where it camefrom.”

The teller checked the account andconfirmed itwasa chequedeposit and

had been cleared straight away. Thecaterer realised this was impossibleas cheques take a few days to clear.

She called the branch and spoke toa teller who said the deposit slip wasunsigned. Two seconds later she re-ceived an SMS to say the cheque hadbeen reversed out of her account. Itwas then her suspicions were con-firmed and she realised the man wasa scam artist.

“All along I felt something wasfishy about the order and the speed inwhich the money went into my ac-count,” she said.

“I froze the account immediately sothe bank could investigate where thecheque came from and how it gotcleared so quickly.”

She is still waiting for bank’s re-sponse.

The incident has been reported onthe bank’s phishing line. Their adviceto clients is to make sure all depositedcheques are legitimate and questionwhether the cheque was stolen.

They also caution against refund-ing any money until the cheque is ful-ly paid or cleared.

Check that the proof of paymentand your statement details add upand reflect the same reference details.

Never accept a notification of thisnature as proof of deposit.

Rather obtain written verificationfrom your bank before taking action.

On a mission to help hospitalsHOSPITALS can be dangerous places.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) es-timates one in 10 patients are harmed whilethey are in hospital. One look at the WHOsafety website confirms the need for im-proved standards in hospitals and clinics.So how can the man in the street protect

himself? Professor Stuart Whittaker, whoheads the NPO Cohsasa (Council for HealthServices Accreditation of Southern Africa),has been dedicated to improving conditionsin hospitals and clinics throughoutAfrica for17 years.Whittaker says: “One of the biggest killers

is poor infection control.Often thedoctor gets

blamedwhenpoor performance is a combina-tion of many factors in hospitals. There’s nomagic solution for dangerous procedures.Cohsasa offers a set of standards to reduce thehazards.”Whittaker’s organisation aims to improve

the quality of care, by retraining the staff andhelping healthcare facilities to achieve high-er standards.He advises people to look for the Cohsasa

accreditation certificate at hospitals, clinics,hospices and other medical facilities.The NPO has achieved worldwide recogni-

tion and is one of 19 internationally-accredit-ed organisations recognised by ISQua (Inter-national Society for Quality in Health Care).There are 99 medical facilities with this ac-creditation including primary health careclinics, hospices, hospitals and academichos-pitals.“The Seawinds PrimaryHealth Care Clinic

inSteenberg is in the fourth year of accredita-tion with Cohsasa and the Council hasachieved 88 accreditation awards for its clin-ics and environmental offices. These clinicsare working to international standards,which is not happening anywhere else in thecountry,” says Whittaker.He was inspired to introduce this pro-

gramme when South Africa became a rain-bow nation in 1994.“In hospital, patients are exposed to proce-

dures which, if not carried out professionallywith skill, might cause harm to a patient.Cohsasa offers a set of standards which canreduce the risks. We train the staff to imple-ment these standards. Accredited facilitiesare re-surveyed after two years and, if main-tained, they are re-accredited for three years.Defaulters run the risk of losing accredition.”Cohsasa is currentlyworking towards a set

of standards for general practitioners.

Training winners in WestlakeJUANITA WILLIAMS

GIVING back to the community was along-term dream for sisters MichelleSmith and Sharon Cloete – until theyfound themselves without jobs and plentyof time on their hands.

Smith taught in primary schools for 16years, but didn’t feel satisfied with her life.“I have a passion for little children and feltI could make more of a difference in the com-munity – I wanted to do more to help.”

The sisters combined forces and devised alife-skills mentoring programme for primaryschools.

During her career in finance and auditingat education facilities, Cloete noticed thatsome young students were struggling and toomany dropped out in the first year. “There isa big gap between first-year university andschool – many students just don’t have the ma-turity to cope.”

After research at various schools, they cre-ated a programme which they launched in Ju-ly at Westlake’s new primary school.

“We explained our vision for the school toprincipal Landie Diamond and she was de-lighted,’’ says Cloete.

Diamond says: “The course is having anamazing effect and helping the children to en-joy their own potential. It is in line with the

school’s value system and teaches them totake ownership of their lives.”

The programme, which spans 10 monthsand is aimed at Grades 4 to 7, is presented inmodules to develop leadership skills.

The Westlake pupils are keen to know more.Narcia Biabu (12) says she has learned howto handle her life with integrity, and finds thecourse very clear and easy to understand. Joe-dean Roberts (13) says she is enjoying “everysecond” of the course which has helped herhave more fun, especially at home. Jade De-mas (11) says she is learning about the impor-

tance of her attitude to life and enjoys helpingother children in the course.

Cloete, of Tokai, and Smith introduce atheme for the month at assembly.

Selected learners are trained as monitorswho teach and empower other pupils in life-skills, they say.

The school moms also play their part bysharing these skills with the community.

The sisters are keen to steer children awayfrom popular media stereotypes and the celeb-rity culture by teaching them to build decentfoundations for their lives.

Blue Route Mallreaches finishing line

Itmay be coming up to Christmas time, but at Blue

Route Mall there’s so much more to celebrate

than simply the festive season. While other

centresmay have undergone refurbishments over

the years, Blue Route Mall’s redevelopment has

been no ordinary transformation – it has been an

evolution from the ground up. What once was a

floor area of 48? 000m² is now an extraordinary

56? 600m², designed to perfectly meet the needs

of the surrounding community, and home to over

120 of the country’s most popular retail and

entertainment venues. Add to this a new Ster

Kinekor 3D complex, as well as a stylish food

court with panoramic views of the nearby

Constantiaberg landscape, and you have a centre

that not only meets the original vision of the

project, but exceeds it.

Since its grand reopening on Thursday 29 March,

BlueRouteMall has undertaken tomake themove

from the old mall to the new as seamless as

possible. While final touches were beingmade to

the newly-refurbished centre, business took

place as usual in the original mall – this

innovative approach ensuring a stress-free

transition for shoppers.

Always a concern for customers, increased

parking was made a priority. The on-grade

parking area is nowopenwith ample, free parking

available along with the current undercover

parking. Set to be fully complete in January 2013,

the additional undercover parking area promises

the utmost convenience for visitors. And with this

final construction phase drawing to an end over

the coming weeks, landlords Fountainhead

Property Trust are proud to offer loyal shoppers a

centre theywill love returning to timeandagain.

While the infrastructure of the new mall may be

nearing completion, Blue Route Mall is still

continuing to innovate and improve on its service

offering. Christmas shopping will be a hassle-

free pleasure for customers this year as trading

hours are extended from Friday 14 December to

accommodate increased demand. Moreover, in

response to shoppers’ requests, fromWednesday

26 December onwards Blue Route Mall will stay

open for longer permanently – trading from 9:00

to 19:00Mondays to Saturdays, and 9:00 to 17:00

on Sundays and public holidays. And to ensure a

relaxing shopping experience, Blue Route Mall

has instituted a complimentary shuttle service,

providing easy access between the mall and its

parking areas–awelcome respite forweary feet.

The redevelopment of Blue Route Mall has not

been a rapid one – but then nothing worthwhile

ever is. Rather it has been a steady, considered

process, with extreme attention to detail, and the

needs of customers top of mind at all times. The

result – a centre built to world-class standards,

offering shoppers the very best in retail and

lifestyle venues, and the ultimate in convenience,

comfort and innovation. There simply is no better

place to shop in the Southern Suburbs than Blue

Route Mall, and the hordes of customers

streaming through its doors daily bear testament

to this.

The redevelopment ofBlue Route Mall draws to a close

USING public toilets comes at aprice.

People across Cape Town are be-ing forced to fork out a small sumsof cash to use some public restrooms.People’s Post interns Luzuko Zini

and Tarren-Lee Habelgaarn took tothe streets to poll readers on whatthey thought about paying to usepublic toilets.

NATURAL: Carol Wilson feels thateveryone pays taxes and part of thatmoney should be used to let peopleuse toilets in public spaces for free.“We all pay tax and that moneyshould be used to do something asnatural as breathing.” Photos: Tarren-LeeHabelgaarn and Luzuko Zini

PROVISION: Lionel Petersen says although people shouldn’t be deprivedfromusing the toilet, you need to payfor a service being providing. “Youmust think of the poorest of the poorand not everyone can afford to payto use the toilet. And that can leadto people doing their business in thestreet or behind a bush.”

INCONVENIENT: Yvonne Kleintjesthinks it is an inconvenience to haveto carrymoney on you to pay at a public toilet, especially if you are out fora jog and don’t have a wallet on you.“It is so nice to get to a clean publictoilet to use where you don’t have topay.”

NO PROBLEM: Enoch Mukendi sayshe doesn’t have issues with payingbecause he doesn’t use public toilets. “I always make sure I use thebathroom before I leave home, so Inever have to worry about havingmoney to use the toilet.”

CAN’T AFFORD: Sergio Adams believes the poor are the ones who willsuffer. “I think we shouldn’t pay because a lot of people don’t have themoney, so they might end up urinating in the streets.”

NO PROBLEM: Gloria Nasumentosays: “People should pay because ifthe standard of the toilet is not upto scratch then they can lay a complaint.”

STOP VANDALISING: Clifford Bowkerbelieves the money goes towardskeeping the toilets hygienic. “Youhave to pay because people vandalise the toilets, so by paying thatmoney will go to keeping them clean.”

PUT MONEY TO GOOD USE: Sharonde Villiers says: “If the money goesinto keeping the toilets clean and hygienic then it is fine to pay.”

Road safetyMOTORISTS be warned.

The expected death toll on South Africanroads have left a mark. Now the province’sauthorities have taken note and are doingsomething towards keeping down the statis-tics of road deaths.

It could not have come at a better time. Theexaminations are over and schools close thisweek.

Many will be on holiday. The roads will beclogged with domestic tourists flocking to thecoastal cities, while foreigners will add to themaelstrom of congestion. At Christmas allroads, it seems, lead to Cape Town. And wehave the road death toll statistics to prove it.

A new bylaw will strengthen the arm oftraffic authorities in the fight on corruption.

The bylaw gives traffic police officers theright to stop and search vehicles without pri-or permission from the national transport de-partment.

The bylaw was passed on Thursday and af-fects the Western Cape. It also permits thetransport ministry to investigate any drivers’licence testing stations.

This, the ministry says, will strengthen itsarm against corruption and will help put be-hind bars any offenders.

In addition the provincial transport depart-ment will, under emergency conditions, useblue lights.

And provincial transport minister RobertCarlisle has said he plans to issue a regula-tion which will require all vehicles over tak-ing cyclists to ensure there’s a safe distanceof “at least 1.5m” between them before pass-ing.

It is hoped the roads will be safe for all roadusers – pedestrians, motorists, truckers, thebusloads of passengers headed for other prov-inces, as well as motorbike and bicycle users.

One death on our roads is one too many.Let us hope the implementation of this new

bylaw will add muster to curbing these roaddeaths. And let us also hope every person ar-rives safely at their destination of choice.

Thanks to all for a good turnLAST week I drove down from Alberton to col-lect my mother from the Plumstead Rusoord,where she was a resident.

Unfortunately, my (car) battery was givingme trouble and, despite having a few pushesfrom the Rusoord staff, my battery finally gaveup the ghost and I had to walk quite a way tothe local Battery Express shop in Main Road tobuy a new one.

I would like to express my thanks to Brucewho drove me all the way back to my stranded

vehicle and fitted a new battery for me.He rescued a damsel in distress and I don’t

know what I would have done without him.Bruce, thanks, you are a star!I would also like to thank the staff at Plum-

stead Rusoord who assisted me greatly – and toall the residents who made me feel so welcome,God bless you – you made me feel like a celebri-ty!ANNE WOOLWAYAlberton, Johannesburg

Bullying is just not acceptableREFERRING to the article about bullying atschools (“Say ‘no’ to bullies”, People’s Post, 27November.). I found most of the comments ofthose interviewed interesting, (except for one).

It seems to me that when one grows up in ahome or situation where abuse is rife then onemay grow up to think it is “a natural part ofgrowing up”

We have a grandson who is very gifted andtalented and has won awards for his great sing-ing and acting abilities. He is receiving anotheraward in January for the lead role he had in aplay presented by a Society in Port Elizabeth.

But because he “differs” from other boys andbecause they are jealous of his talents, they act-ed out the “macho” influence they saw in theirparents, and bullied him mercilessly every day.His parents were forced to move him from twoschools in Port Elizabeth because the principaland staff were incapable of stopping the bullyingat their schools.

My other grandson who is autistic sufferedthe same fate in the same school and my sononce observed how the father of a bully gave histacit approval to what was happening. When myson approached him he sped off in his car.

Children have committed suicide because ofthe hell they have been through.

Some of the other comments may have merit,but to say it is a natural part of growing up isutter nonsense.ERROL RENNIEMilkwood ParkThe issue of bullying rears its head all too often,which is why People’s Post merited the matterthrough a reader poll. Whether we agree withthem or not, all people have a right to their opin-ions. Readers who agree to the poll do so with theunderstanding they have a right to express theiropinions freely as these are reflected in the news-paper. It is the hope of every parent that their chil-dren will be safe as they grow up. – Deputy Ed.

What’s ina name?WE loved the photo of ourdog, misnamed “Ugly Kid”,with our daughter RobynPope on the front page of Peo-ple’s Post on Tuesday 20 No-vember.

My seven-year-old daugh-ter asked me to write and ex-plain his name. I gave him tomy husband as a birthdaypresent some nine years agoand he was named “Ugly KidJoe” – after the band – as theyhave a song called Cat in theCradle.

The relevance of the songto the dog is that it is abouta travelling man who doesnot see his son grow up. And,as my husband travels all toofrequently, this too applies tohis beloved dog.

It was before we had ourbeautiful daughter and heviews his dog as his child –well actually, I think he stilldoes.

The SPCA Wiggle Waggleis a wonderful event and wewill be back this year, withUgly Kid Joe and his two bestfriends, SPCA adopted Curband Scrappy.SALLY FERGUSONEmailThe information was a sub-mission from the SPCA. Anyinconvenience is regrettedandPeople’s Post wishes Ugly KidJoe, Curb and Scrappy manyhappy dog years with theirhuman family. – Deputy Ed.

Doors close on elderly?TASMIN CUPIDO

A COMMUNITY institute which providesessential care for frail seniors may haveto close its doors.

Funds of the Douglas Murray Home for theAged, in Retreat, have all but dried up, as theHome struggles to stay afloat. Established 43years ago, it is home to 90 residents and is get-ting by on a shoestring budget.

But the board and staff of the state-fundedfacility are fighting the imminent closure bylaunching the Save the Douglas MurrayHome Campaign.

CEO Fred Daniels tells People’s Post theHome, which has over the years changedfrom an old-age home to a frailcare centre,has been battling tomake endsmeet for someyears. “We currently only receive a frailcaresubsidy from provincial government,” hesays.

“Residents also have to pay amonthly lodg-ing fee – of the 90 residents, about 10 pay theirfees.We cannot kick thosewho do not pay outto the streets. What will happen to them?”

Most of the residents need 24-hour, special-ised nursing and medical care. They mostlyreceive State pensions and many have beenabused by family members, and referred tothe Home by social workers.

The current economyhas also led to donorswithdrawing sponsorships.

Daniels describes the facility as a “dump-ing ground” for families of residents over theyears, but adds they have changed the admis-sion policy. “We only accept residents if thefamily guarantees their support and involve-ment.”

With 99% of residents being incontinent,monthly bills have skyrocketed. The Home’swater account is R7 000 and month, while a

total of R19 000 is spent on electricity – thisfigure escalates to R23 000 during winter.

And, Daniels says, he has been informedthat government will not be increasing thesubsidy as “it has many other facilities tofund. We have also approached the City ofCape Town, but they say they cannot help usin possibly reducing the accounts,” heclaims.

However, local ward councillor ShanenRossouw says she has been in contact withthe relevant departments. “The application

for indigent grants are underway, while Ihavebeenassured the facility’swaterwill notbe cut,” she says.

But their biggest challenge is covering staffsalaries. The facility employs 63 staff mem-bers,whowork 12-hour shifts a day. “Weneedprofessional caregivers and nurses to attendto our residents. In an ideal world we wouldneedoneprofessionalnurse for every twores-idents,” Daniels says.

“But the nurses need to be paid up toR12 500 a month. We do not have this kind of

money.”The Board was faced with the challenging

decision of downscaling or closing the doorsto the facility. “The campaign is aimed at gal-vanising the support of the community andcreating awareness around the Home.”

People can donate goods, volunteer theirservices or donate a total of R120 or R10 for12 months. “The money will feed a residentfor a month.”

Gunners shootfor first placeLIAM MOSES

ATHLONE side Oriental Gunnershave stormedup to secondplaceon theSAB League table after recording acrushing victory over Heath Athleticat the Heideveld Sports Complex onSaturday.

Gunners convincingly beat the LotusRover club 6-1, thanks to a hat-trick fromGiovanne Rector and goals from DarrelSmith, Gresham Stevens, and LorenzoSchoeman. Heath’s solitary goal wasscored by Aldrion Viljoen.

The impressive victory is Gunners’ sev-enth of the season and sees the club with21 points on the log after suffering onlytwo losses in their nine games this sea-son.

Heath, meanwhile, has 12 points totheir name and managed to hold on toninth place on the title despite the heavydefeat.

The most surprising result of the week-end’s fixtures came in Tribes FC’s matchagainst log leaders Zeesha FC.

Zeesha have annexed the top spot on thetable this season and went into the gamehaving drawn once and won eight times.

They were made to suffer their first losswhen Tribes won 2-0, thanks to a bracefrom Mojalefa Moleleki.

Despite the result, Zeesha and Tribeshave held on to first and fourth places re-spectively.

Wynberg team Battswood FC contin-ued their good form this weekend, win-
