Altesame 117 inskrywings van 14 wynprodusente vanuit Durbanville, Constantia en Philadelphia is op nasionale vlak beoordeel. "Die idee vir 'n Kaapstad-jongwynskou het begin, soos baie goeie idees, oor 'n glas wyn. Ons het geglo dat hierdie wynstreke hul eie platform verdien. Die

konsep is aan die bestuur van die SuidAfrikaanse Jongwynskou voorgelê en ons was verheug toe dit goedgekeur is," het Pieter-Niel Rossouw, keldermeester by Durbanville Hills, by die toekenningsaand in die Tangram-restaurant by Durbanville Hills gesê. NA BLADSY4

Western Cape’s unemployment rate holds steady DESIRÉE RORKE

DESIREE.RORKE@TYGERBURGER.CO.ZA

he Western Cape’s unemployment rate has dipped to 19,5% in the second quarter of 2026, down from 19,6% the previous quarter, keeping the province below the 20% mark for over a year. The latest Quarterly Labour Force Survey figures, welcomed by the Western Cape Government, remain well below the national rate and point to steady economic performance despite tough global and national conditions. However, decreases in employment were recorded in Western Cape (48 000), Gauteng (22 000) and North West (15 000), while Mpumalanga (41 000), Eastern Cape (13 000) and Free State (9 000) were provinces that observed the highest increases in employment. It is important to note that decrease in employment means fewer people have active jobs, while a decrease in unemployment means fewer people who want work are without a job. These two metrics track different groups in the Statistics South Africa labor force data and can move independently due to shifts in population and job seeking. Seven out of ten sectors in the province recorded year-on-year gains in employment, driven by the finance (+41 000), trade (+41 000) and agriculture (+26 000) sectors. The provincial labour absorption rate, the share of the working age population that is employment, also grew 1,1 percentage points year-onyear reaching 55,7% compared to 39,6% nationally. The latest QLFS figures also confirm that over the past 10 years, the province’s unemployment rate has consistently remained below the national average. “Every decrease in the unemployment rate is encouraging. It shows that we continue to foster a resilient job creation ecosystem that works for our residents,” Winde stated. “Despite intense head winds, we are still making progress. The Western Cape and its residents have faced an incredibly difficult three months, marked by several weather events that wreaked havoc on infrastructure and the agricultural sector, in particular, which is a major economic driver in the province. “We know we must and can do more to grow our economy. We will push even harder to bring more investment to our province that creates many more jobs.” Western Cape minister of agriculture, economic development and tourism, Dr Ivan Meyer, welcomed the latest figures. “While South Africa lost 68 000 jobs yearon-year, the Western Cape created 91 000 jobs over this period. This achievement reflects the resilience of our economy, the determination of our businesses, and the impact of creating an enabling environment for investment, growth and job creation,” said Meyer. Meyer said the results demonstrate

PROVINCIAL UNEMPLOYEMENT RATE REMAINS BELOW 20% MARK FOR ANOTHER YEAR the importance of maintaining a growthfocused economic agenda. “Growth creates jobs. Our focus remains on attracting investment, supporting businesses, expanding export opportunities, improving the skills pipeline, and building the infrastructure required for sustained economic growth.” NATIONAL OUTLOOK Countrywide the official unemployment rate was 33,6% in the second quarter of this year. According to the latest results, there was an increase of 345 000 in the number of unemployed persons to 8,5 million, while there was a decrease of 16 000 in the number of employed persons to 16,7 million compared with the first quarter. This resulted in an increase of 329 000 (or 1,3%) in the labour force during the same period. The above changes in employment and unemployment resulted in the official unemployment rate (labour underutilisation) increasing by 0,9 of a percentage point from 32,7% in the first quarter of tis year to 33,6% in the second quarter. Discouraged job-seekers decreased by 227 000 to 3,7 million, other available job seekers decreased by 49 000 to 861 000, and unavailable job-seekers decreased by 4 000 to 44 000, resulting in a net decrease of 280 000 to 4,6 million in the potential labour force – persons who were available but not seeking or unavailable but seeking. Those outside the labour force for other reasons increased by 72 000 to 125 million. Persons outside the labour force, which is the total of those in potential labour force and others outside the labour force, decreased by 208 000 to 17,1 million in the second quarter of this year. The number of persons employed in the formal sector and household sector decreased by 41 000 and 9 000 respectively in 2026, and in the informal sector increased by 34 000 over the same period. The increases in industry employment were mainly recorded in trade (70 000), construction (39 000) and finance (11 000). The largest decreases in employment were recorded in community and social service (57 000), mining (26 000), agriculture and manufacturing (15 000 each). The results for the second quarter of 2026 show that the total number of unemployed youth (15-34 years) increased by 264 000 to 5,0 million compared with quarter one of 2026, while employed youth recorded a decrease of 40 000 to 5,6 million. As a result, the youth unemployment rate increased by 1,5 percentage points to 47,4% in the second quarter of 2026.

Women celebrate strength DESIRÉE RORKE

A NIGHT OF SISTERHOOD, SELF-LOVE AND CELEBRATING WOMANHOOD

DESIREE.RORKE@TYGERBURGER.CO.ZA

here was silk, there was satin, and there was no shortage of glam. But what filled Levè Coffee Shop in Brackenfell on a recent occasion to mark Women's Month was a deep collective pride that comes once a year, when South Africa turns its attention to the women who hold communities together. Organiser Yvette Vatblé says the aim of the event was to give women a chance to dress to the nines and celebrate womanhood. "I have so many friends that never have the opportunity to dress up, put on make-up and hang out. As busy women we seldom get this chance. Single women don't want to hang out in clubs or bars and married women seek time away from home sometimes," she says. The theme of the evening was, "Be you and love yourself." "In a busy life women have the need to feel feminine and know they are worthy no matter what," she says. "It does not matter whether you are married or single, career women or housewives, what you are built like or what age you are. At the end of the day we all want to feel worthy." Conversations with the women at the event revealed one challenge above all, the weight of society's expectation to be perfect. "You have to be the perfect mom, perfect wife, best career woman, and often with little support, and ashamed to reach out for help," says Ilze Meyer, now in her forties. "But in actual fact, these things are all unattainable, and yet we feel guilty for not living up to them. And what is worse is that it will often be other women who

judge you if you don't fit the bill. As women we are so quick to judge each other in how we raise our children or live our lives." She says it is especially sad to see how women bully each other from a young age right into adulthood. "You are either not feminine enough or too feminine. It is so unnecessary because we are all made differently." ABUSE Beyond the daily grind, women also face the heavier burdens of abuse and stereotyping. Audrey van Wyk* (19) was only 15 when she first experienced abuse. "I was with him for a year. At first it was only verbal abuse but then he became jealous and I endured physical and sexual abuse," she says, adding that she only realised the extent of the abuse afterward. Today, she still finds it a gift to be a woman, but believes women need

to champion one another far more. Her greatest challenge as a young woman in South Africa is finding work, particularly in "male-dominated" industries. "It is deeply disheartening how hard it is to find work," she says. Having raised her children, gone through a divorce and an abusive relationship, Lee-Anne Botha* is in a phase of her life where she feels she can totally be herself again. Of a long-term toxic relationship plagued with infidelity she says, "I have been depleted, as a woman emotionally, mentally and even financially. I lost myself and for a very long time I felt I was less than everyone else. It took me two years out of the situation to feel like myself again and to figure out that I was only living a role. Today, I know I am not a victim of my past, and my circumstances do not define me. I am just me." * The names mentioned have been changed to protect the identities of those involved.

SÊ JOU SÊ! ’N KONSEPSTRATEGIE VIR ERFENISHULPBRONBESTUUR VIR DIE STAD KAAPSTAD Die Stad Kaapstad (die Stad) stel ’n hersiene strategie vir erfenishulpbronbestuur voor om die bestuur en bewaring van erfenishulpbronne op munisipale vlak ingevolge die Wet op Nasionale Erfenishulpbronne, Wet 25 van 1999, te rig. Die konsepstrategie beoog om erfenisbestuur in die stad te versterk deur: • erfenisbestuur met munisipale beplanningsprosesse te integreer; • gepaste vlakke van beskerming vir bewaringswaardige erfenishulpbronne in te stel; • administratiewe ondoeltreffendheid en onnodige duplisering tussen erfenisgoedkeuringsprosesse te verminder; en • die rol van erfenis in ekonomiese groei, openbare voordeel en omgewingsvolhoubaarheid te ondersteun. Die konsepstrategie erken dat erfenis nie net oor die verlede gaan nie, maar ook oor hoe Kaapstad oor tyd groei, ontwikkel en sy unieke identiteit behou. Die konsepstrategie strook met tersaaklike nasionale en provinsiale wetgewing en ondersteun die Stad se algemener beplanning- en ontwikkelingsdoelwitte. Kennis geskied hiermee ingevolge artikel 17 van die Wet op Plaaslike Regering: Munisipale Stelsels, Wet 32 van 2000, dat die publiek en belangstellende partye of groepe geleentheid het om van 17 Augustus tot 17 September 2026 hulle kommentaar by die munisipaliteit in te dien.

VAN BLADSY 1 Die nasionale wenners van die 194ste SA Jongwynskou word komende Vrydagaand by 'n galaaand by Elsenburg aangekondig. Altesame 1 389 jongwyne is ingeskryf vir dié oudste wynkompetisie in Suid-Afrika. DIEP PASSIE "Ek het 'n diep passie vir die SA Jongwynskou. Dit is veel meer as 'n kompetisie. Dit is 'n platform waar wynmakers kan eksperimenteer, nuwe versnitte kan toets, nuwe tegnieke kan ondersoek, en die potensiaal van nuwe kultivars kan ontdek. "Baie van Suid-Afrika se beste wyne het hul reis begin as 'n wyn wat by die Jongwynskoukompetisie ingeskryf is. "Vir baie jare het Durbanville aan die StellenboschJongwynskou deelgeneem, en ons is dankbaar vir daardie geskiedenis. “Maar namate ons oor ons eie unieke terroir en wynstyle nagedink het, het dit al hoe duideliker geword dat Kaapstad sy eie storie het om te vertel," het hy gesê. "Wat daarna gebeur het, het ons weer herinner waarom die wynbedryf so 'n besonderse gemeenskap is. “Die reaksie was onmiddellik en oorweldigend positief. “Niemand het gevra waarom nie. Hulle het eenvoudig gevra hoe hulle kon help," het Rossouw gesê. "Hoewel dit 'n eerste was vir die Kaapstad-wynstreek, kom dit met 'n ryk geskiedenis wat terugdateer na 1833, toe die heel eerste Suid-Afrikaanse Jongwyntentoonstelling net hier in Kaapstad deur Agri Expo

gehou is (toe bekend as die Cape of Good Hope Agricultural Society)," het hy gesê. "Een van ons grootste uitdagings was die trofeë. Danksy Thys (Louw van Diemersdal) het ons met Breyton Milford, uitvoerende hoof van Agri Expo, in aanraking gekom. Hy het ons genooi om uit hul versameling trofeë te kom kies. Hierdie is nie gewone wyntrofeë nie; hulle dra die geskiedenis van Suid-Afrikaanse landbou, met sommige wat terugdateer tot so ver as 1922. "Ons het besluit om daardie geskiedenis te behou. Om die trofeë waarlik uniek aan die Kaapstad-Jongwynskou te maak, het ons die voetstukke met iets spesiaals vervang. Fritz van FS Smit in Paarl het ingestem om nuwe eikehoutvoetstukke uit die dawwe van ou KWV-eikevate te vervaardig. Die hout wat vir hierdie voetstukke gebruik word, word op tussen 250 en 300 jaar oud geskat,” het Rossouw gesê.

Residents advised to store water

esidents in several northern suburbs have been advised to store enough water ahead of planned water supply interruptions this week. The City’s Water and Sanitation Directorate will conduct maintenance and testing on the water network between Tuesday 18 and Sunday 23 August. Locally, residents in Selborne Slot, Oude Westhof, Kanonberg, Kanonberg Lifestyle Estate and Van Riebeeckshof will be affected. A test shut-off was scheduled for Tuesday 18 August from 10:00 to 16:00.

PLANNED OUTAGE WILL AFFECT SEVERAL NORTHERN SUBURBS

The main shut-off will follow on Thursday 20 August from 09:00 to 17:00. Residents in the affected areas should expect no water supply during these periods while the City installs a pressure-reducing valve on the network. RESIDENTS URGED TO PREPARE The City has advised households to store sufficient water in clean, sealed containers before the interruptions.

Taps should also be kept closed while the water is off to prevent water loss or possible damage when the supply is restored. Residents may notice that the water appears milky or discoloured when supply returns. The City said this can happen because air becomes trapped in the pipes during maintenance. The appearance should clear after the network settles. The work forms part of planned maintenance aimed at improving

the reliability of Cape Town’s water supply network. MAINTENANCE UNDER WAY ACROSS CAPE TOWN Several other parts of the metro will experience water disruptions during the week as the City’s teams conduct maintenance and testing. Zero-pressure testing is scheduled in Diep River, Plumstead, The Vines, Deurdrif and Barbarossa on Tuesday from 09:00 to 16:00. Testing will also take place in Camps Bay, Clifton, Gardens, Oranjezicht and Tamboerskloof

on Tuesday and Wednesday. Further work is planned for the Helderberg and surrounding areas over the weekend. Residents in Gordon's Bay, Strand, Sir Lowry’s Pass Village, Macassar, Firgrove, Eerste River East and surrounding areas could experience low water pressure or temporary disruptions while acoustic leak detection testing is carried out on a major bulk water pipeline. The testing is scheduled from 19:00 on Friday until 07:00 on Saturday, with another overnight period from 19:00 on Saturday until 07:00 on Sunday.

Badisa prepares for take-off with star-studded conference The social services organisation Badisa will host its 2026 conference and annual general meeting on Wednesday 9 September at Die Bron at Willowbridge Mall. Under the theme "From paper to possibilities" the event will bring together NGOs, business leaders, community organisations, volunteers and supporters for a day of inspiration, networking and practical collaboration. A simple sheet of paper can become a plan, a story, a solution or even a paper plane ready for take-off. That idea lies at the heart of this year's conference, exploring how creativity,

partnerships and shared purpose can transform today's challenges into tomorrow's possibilities. WELL-KNOWN SOUTH AFRICANS The programme features an exciting line-up of well-known South Africans, including musician Early B, Springbok Sevens player Jayden Nell, magician and actor Charles Tertiens, singer Leah, purpose coach and radio presenter Liomee Vosloo, business leader Ilana Steyn and Azelia Morkel, VIA TV channel head. Delegates can look forward to engaging conversations on leadership, purpose,

communication, networking and innovation. Sessions will explore why media matters, how meaningful relationships create lasting impact, and what the Springboks and Badisa have in common — from teamwork and resilience to the power of every individual contributing to something greater. According to Adrie Jurgensen, director of communications, marketing and partnerships at Badisa, the conference is about creating opportunities that continue long after the day has ended. "The greatest possibilities are rarely created alone. They happen when people from

different sectors share ideas, build relationships and choose to work together," she says. SUPPLIER EXHIBITION The event will also feature a supplier exhibition, giving businesses the opportunity to showcase their products and services to delegates from across the Western Cape while building valuable relationships with one of the province's largest social development organisations. Exhibition space is available at R5 000 per business. Badisa will also launch its latest annual report, sharing stories of innovation, resilience and hope

from the people and communities at the heart of its work. Whether you are a business looking to build meaningful partnerships, an NGO seeking fresh ideas, a volunteer wanting to make a difference, or someone passionate about stronger communities, "From paper to possibilities" promises to be a day of inspiration, connection and action. Tickets at R150 per person are available at https:// www.quicket.co.za/events/385743from-paper-to-possibilities-badisaconference-agm-2026/#/.

Laerskool Eversdal vier 50 jaar TARRYN-LEIGH SOLOMONS

TARRYN.EDITORIAL@GMAIL.COM

ie Laerskool Eversdal vier vanjaar sy 50ste bestaansjaar deur 50 Suid-Afrikaanse liefdadigheidsorganisasies te ondersteun. Die inisiatief vorm deel van die skool se jaarlikse Damus-projek, ’n tradisie wat sedert 1976 uit Eversdal se leuse, “Ons gee”, gegroei het. Vanjaar bied die skool sy 48ste Damus aan. In die 25 dae voor die Damus-aand op Donderdag 27 Augustus ontvang twee organisasies elke dag ’n skenking van R5 000. Teen die einde van die projek sal 50 organisasies ondersteun wees — een vir elke jaar van Eversdal se bestaan. Al die begunstigdes is organisasies wat op verskillende maniere met kinders werk en tot hul welsyn, ontwikkeling en versorging bydra. Chrizanne de Beer, adjunkhoof van die Laerskool Eversdal, sê die projek is ’n besondere manier om die skool se mylpaal te vier. “Dit is ons manier om dankbaarheid te

toon en iets blywends aan die gemeenskap terug te gee.” DAMUS BRING GEMEENSKAP BYMEKAAR Damus is ’n jaarlikse gemeenskapsaand waar families saamkuier, speletjies speel en kos geniet. Leerders dra tot die fondsinsamelingsprojek by deur die tradisionele Damus-lootjies en -vorm te verkoop, terwyl die publiek ook genooi word om die geleentheid by te woon. Die volle opbrengs van die fondsinsameling word aan liefdadigheid geskenk. Volgens De Beer gaan Damus ook daaroor om belangrike waardes by leerders te vestig.

“Ons wil graag hê dat ons leerders nie net akademies sal groei nie, maar ook sal leer om met omgee, deernis en vrygewigheid te leef.” Sy sê die skool hoop die projek sal die begunstigde organisasies help om hul werk met kinders voort te sit, maar ook dat leerders eerstehands sal ervaar wat dit beteken om iets vir ander te doen.

“Ons wil hê hulle moet ervaar dat ware vreugde daarin lê om te gee en ander te help. As ons daardie waarde by hulle kan vestig, sal die invloed van Damus nog lank voortleef.” Die Damus-aand begin om 17:00. Die geleentheid is oop vir die publiek, met vermaak, speletjies en eetgoed vir die hele gesin.

THINKING OUT LOUD

SLICE OF LIFE

Connected, yet alone The word "isolation" comes from the Latin word insula, meaning "island". Over time, the word evolved through Italian (isolato) and French (isolé), meaning "made into an island". The feeling and connotations of isolation, however, have also morphed as we have headed deeper into the 21st century. DIGITAL COCOON Now the thought of closing our doors and wearing our headphones is seen as a comfort or a necessity, where we can destress and fulfil our own personal needs after enduring a demanding working day. Since the quick but subtle decline of televisions and broadcasting as an "escape" from reality and a means to stay informed and entertained, users have been tricked into becoming addicted to seeing their desires or hobbies packaged directly to them in short clips through TikTok's, Instagram reels or YouTube shorts. Families started interacting less, while

NOW WE SECOND-GUESS AND DOUBT WHAT WE SEE AND HEAR MORE THAN EVER.

the children became more immersed in their tablets and YouTube channels, and angsty teenagers have to understand and sometimes compare their lives to the glamorous aesthetics and filters they see when watching the Instagram stories of their friends or celebrities they admire. Now we watch, comment and "like" friends and family from afar on social media when they have weddings, celebrate births, or grieve a loved one — like voyeurs, it seems. CELLPHONE SOURCES Our cellphones have become our main source of information and entertainment. Gone are the days when the family would huddle at six to watch the latest episode of 7de Laan. Now everyone can enjoy their own distractions and retreat to the peaceful quiet of their bedrooms. I think the Covid-19 pandemic marked the crucial breaking point and awakening for a new meaning of this word to be birthed. Stranded and locked away in our houses during the height of Covid-19, our need and the time we spent on our cellphones intensified. Whether this was video calls and texts with loved ones, sending emails and attending Teams meetings, or doom-scrolling on social media whilst being flooded with the latest news and death stats, we adapted to being "happily marooned on our own social islands". ALGORITHMS THAT FEEDS All the while, the algorithms have been tracking, studying and curating a feed dedicated to our tastes, interests, likes and dislikes — and yet most people aren't seeing that these tech wizards have woven a cocoon around the users and their cellphones. This trap, however, disguises itself. So many are also quick to defend their ideologies or mock those they disagree with online in such creative fashion with GIFs and images, and yet lack the courage to spew these thoughts in real life. With the popularity and convenience of artificial intelligence, it has also impacted the way we view images, listen to music or watch videos. Now we second-guess and doubt what we see and hear more than ever. It's a strange and interesting time to be alive in 2026, but now more than ever we need to enrich the way we communicate instead of resorting to numbing ourselves to death on our own devices. - KEANAN HARMSE

COMMEMORATION: Residents gathered at Het Posthuys Museum in Main Road, Muizenberg, on Saturday 8 August to witness a cannon firing marking the 1795 Battle of Muizenberg. The event was hosted by Muizenberg Heritage in partnership with the Gri Guriqau Xam Research Institute and the Cannon Association of South Africa. Heritage Western Cape formally gazetted the battle site as a Provincial Heritage Site on Friday 27 March this year, following a nomination by the City of Cape Town’s Environmental Management Department. The battle took place when a British naval fleet attacked Dutch forces on the slopes of the Muizenberg mountains. The Dutch eventually surrendered the Cape, allowing Britain to gain control of the important Indian trade route. Another cannon firing is planned for Heritage Day, Thursday 24 September.

BRIEWE/LETTERS

Cost of uniforms feels like ﬁnancial exploitation I am writing this letter in the hope that it will highlight a pressing concern for single parents and lower-income families. We recently started shopping for school uniform items for our grandson, who enters Grade 1 next year. We were shocked by the prices, largely driven by the requirement to purchase plain items with compulsory school badges stitched or printed on them, including shirts, dresses, jerseys, tracksuits, and blazers. A Grade 1 learner typically wears a uniform for only 12 to 18 months before outgrowing it. Paying up to R400 for a jersey, R300 for a shirt, or R600 for a tracksuit top places an unfair ﬁnancial strain on families already struggling with the cost of living. While clothing banks exist, they do not address the core issue. Why are basic school clothes so heavily branded and expensive? Why are parents not allowed to buy plain, affordable white shirts or standard items from general retail

stores? We ask why the Western Cape and National Departments of Education allow what feels like blatant ﬁnancial exploitation of parents and guardians. Additionally, I would like to address the issue of school stationery and supplies. Are school stationery packages covered under fee exemptions or subsidies? If not, why are parents often pressured or required to purchase stationery directly through the school rather than sourcing cheaper alternatives independently. And why are parents expected to supply general administrative and sanitary items such as A4 paper reams and toilet paper for the school’s routine operations? Schools should operate as educational institutions, not proﬁt-driven enterprises. I hope these matters receive urgent attention from the relevant departments as families begin preparing for the upcoming school year. A CONCERNED FUNDER OF A SINGLE MOTHER

Very kind Samaritans return lost cellphone It was two Fridays ago, I believe on 24 July, when I, with a very dear friend of ours and her three little girls walked to the little playpark corner of Gert van Rooyen and Malmesbury roads. The little girls always enjoy this playpark with the merry-go-round and the slide and were having great fun. I took a video of them with my cellular phone and went to sit down on the little couch before returning to our cottage at La Provence for refreshments. There was a knock at the front door and our on-duty security guard, seeing me, asked whether I had my cellular phone with me. I had in fact just realised that I didn’t have it in my pocket when a man with two little children beside him, drew my attention to a cellular

phone in his hand and holding it up for me to see. It was, in fact, my phone. I was completely ﬂabbergasted, surprised, and shocked "out of my boots"! I offered him a reward which he declined, and I couldn’t stop saying thank you. A week later I had my little granddaughter with me, went to the same park and on our way home the good samaritan and his little daughter had noticed us and waited for us at our security gates. This time I remembered to ask him what his name was. Jonathan Edwards with his little daughter Olivia. Thank you, thank you and thank you. May you be blessed abundantly! MARIETTE PRIMIC, Welgelegen

Verlange na ‘Window shopping’ Met nolstalgie dink ek terug aan my grootwordjare in Bellville. Saterdagaande was 'n ritueel van window shopping doen in ons huishouding. Pa, ma en kinders klim in die Valiant wat blink en na politoer ruik en ons ry af tot by die Burgersentrum waar die motor geparkeer word. Ons klim dan uit en drentel al langs Voortrekkerweg af tot op die hoek van Voortrekker- en Durbanweg, stap dan oor die pad en drentel terug tot by die Valiant terwyl ons voor elke winkel vir 'n rukkie gaan staan en die inhoud in die venster bespreek. Dit was gehalte-gesinstyd. Ongelukkig het Bellville so verval en agteruit gegaan, dat die ritueel gestop moes word. Mense moes aanpas en danksy vooruitgang het mense aanlyn begin koop. Jy sit nou voor jou rekenaar of selfoon, blaai na 'n webwerf wat aanlynverkope doen en kies jou artikels om eendag te koop of dadelik. Onpersoonlike kommunikasie met 'n blikbrein. Geen interaksie of gesellige geselsies oor die artikels wat jy sien nie. Ons word ongesellig en distansieer onsself al hoe meer van die samelewing deurdat ons gedwing word om veiligheid te kies bo die kanse van moontlike kaping, aanranding en skelms wat om elke hoek en draai vir jou in Bellville se strate wag. LIZELLE STRYDOM, Chrismar

Ramp dreig by dam Die "kenners" van die Stad se parke-afdeling is besig om 'n massiewe ramp by Doordekraaldam te veroorsaak. In hul wysheid het hulle die riete voor die damwal en by die plekke waar mense visvang, uitgehaal. Dit het ongelukkig die gaping geskep vir pes-hiasinte om die spasie te oorweldig. Op die oomblik verdring dit enige groei van natuurlike plante en misbruik die suurstof van visse, paddas en krappe en ander gesonder plante. En hulle is feitlik onmoontlik om uit te roei. WAARNEMER, Bellville

Traffic officer was a hero in a dark moment in our life A blowout incident that happened on the N1 highway about 1,5 kilometres before the N1 petrol station northbound at 05:50 on Saturday 1 August left us in a very nervous and precarious position. But fear not, Western Cape traffic officer S. Sonday came to our rescue. What a relief and stunning sight to

see the blue lights lighting up the sombre moment we were experiencing. Officer Sonday stayed right behind us and with us all the way until we were able to nurse the vehicle all the way to the petrol station which was almost an hour on the road with the terrible damage done to the tyre.

Thank you to you, officer Sonday, for being our hero in such a dark moment in our life, and what an honour it is to live in such a sunning province with our protective police fearlessly protecting the citizens with such positive passion. NEIL CELLIERS

TYGERBURGER Tygervallei Woensdag,19Augustus 2026

Zanne en James werk saam Zanne Stapelberg en James Grace span kragte saam in Spanish Song op Woensdag 26 Augustus om 20:30 by Die Boer-teaterrestaurant in Durbanville. Hierdie intieme produksie met Spaanse klassieke musiek bring twee meesters in vertolking byeen, wat musikale samewerkings van meer as twee dekades se uitverkoopte optredes deel. Bekend vir hul buitengewone wisselwerking, vertel hulle stories deur musiek, wat gehore meevoer. Hierdie is Stapelberg en Grace se derde gesamentlike Spaanse musiekproduksie, wat die asemrowende repertoire van Suid-Amerika en Spanje verken. Sangsiklusse van Manuel de Falla en Enrique Granados word gehoor, asook werke van Astor Piazzolla. Europese klassieke werke word ook vir die eerste keer ingesluit, waaronder komposisies deur John Dowland, voortreﬂik in Spaans vertaal met bekende melodieë wat herverbeel word. Die optrede is 'n reis en 'n dialoog tussen die verlede en die hede — tussen Europa en die Iberiese wêreld, tussen digkuns en klank. Hulle skep met passie en sensitiwiteit comblikke wat lank ná die laaste noot nog by die gehoor vertoef. Kaartjies kos R250. Bespreek by www. dieboer.com of by 021 979 1911.

FOGGY WEATHER COULD NOT DAMPEN SPIRIT

10 000 turn out for Blisters

KAYLYNNE BANTOM oggy weather couldn’t dampen the spirits of the 10 000 people who turned out for this year’s Blisters for Bread Charity Family Fun Walk at Green Point Common on Sunday 16 August. Organised by the Peninsula School Feeding Association (PSFA) in association with Lucky Star, the event raised funds to support the organisation’s efforts to provide meals to thousands of vulnerable children across the Western Cape. With this year’s event drawing a record 10 000 participants, PSFA director Petrina Pakoe says they are already looking ahead to next year, with plans to build on the success and reach even more supporters. “The event is over but the support that we need is ongoing. We are grateful to everybody who came to support. Every entry feeds 23 children.” She thanked participants and sponsors for their contribution, while appealing

for continued support as preparations get underway for the next walk. FEEDING THE NEEDY Premier Alan Winde said the event is about more than bringing people together. “I love attending each year because this is such an amazing cause and the community comes together to help our kids. You cannot expect to get a good school outcome if you don’t have something in your stomach.” According to Winde, more than 500 000 learners get a school meal every day and the PSFA is one of those that help people get food in their stomach. “People always say stomachs full, eyes closed. But I say stomachs full open brain,” said Winde.

Jiu-jitsu royalty and rugby legend celebrate promotions Reps MMA and CrossFit Gym hosted its annual International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (IBJJF) graduation ceremony on Sunday 14 June. The event was presided over by master Roberto Atalla, a world-renowned sixthdegree black belt and founder of the Rio Grappling Club Worldwide. Atalla travels from Brazil annually to test and grade practitioners at the Rio Grappling Club headquarters, situated within the Reps MMA facility on Edward Street, Tygervalley. Gym owner professor Rico Hattingh was promoted to a fourth-degree black belt by Atalla. Former Springbok rugby player James Dalton was promoted to the rank of brown belt. Dalton, a member of the 1995 Rugby World Cup-winning squad, received his new rank from Hattingh. The brown belt is the penultimate rank
