Sanger Kyle Seconna (links) en Maya van As tree op tydens die afsluiting van Tygerfest se uitruilprojek met Club Cabaret van die Koningsteaterakademie in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. Die afsluiting is in die Collective Arts Theatre gehou.
ie Tygerfest het onlangs ’n hoogs geslaagde uitruilprojek met Club Cabaret van die Koningsteaterakademie in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, Nederland, afgesluit met ’n heerlike aand by die Collective Arts Theatre in Bellville. Hulle besoek is onder meer moontlik gemaak deur die Van Ewijck-stigting en die Stad Kaapstad. Twee oudstudente van die Universiteit Stellenbosch se departement drama, die sanger Kyle Seconna en poppekasmeester Elisha Zeeman, het in 2017 vir ’n paar maande in Nederland gaan help skryf aan twee kabaretvertonings. In Februarie het ’n Nederlandse groep van 21 studente, dosente en ’n filmspan drie weke in Suid-Afrika deurgebring. Kabaretvertonings (saam met Kyle en Elisha) is aangebied by die Collective Arts Theatre en The Stage in Bellville, die Harlequin in Parow, die Suid-Afrikaanse Sentrum vir Ne-
derland en Vlaandere (Sasnev) in Pinelands en by die US-Woordfees op Stellenbosch. Tipies van die kabaret het die “heilige koeie” in die samelewing sentraal gestaan, maar met ’n verskil: daar is telkens in gesprek getree met die gehoor. Dit het gelei tot baie boeiende besprekings. Die groep, wat ook moontlikhede vir verdere samewerking wou ondersoek, het nie alleen heelwat van Kaapstad en omgewing gesien nie, maar het ook help beoordeel aan die Tyger-talentkompetisie in Delft en het ’n belowende ontmoeting gehad met die studente van die Cape Music Institute in Athlone. Die Tygerfest, Club Cabaret en Cape Music Institute beplan interessante gesamentlike produksies in 2019 – hou hierdie ruimte dop!

Die Eversdal-gemeenskap het in groot getalle met hul piekniekkomberse opgedaag om al die Evers op ’n buitelugverhoog te sien optree. Elke graad het ’n ander land verteenwoordig en moes aantrek soos die land, geregte voorsit en ook items lewer. Graad 2 het China verteenwoordig en die onderwysers in hul Chinese drag is (van links) Arnell Potgieter, Maryke van Wyk, Sonja Greyling, Melissa du Plessis en Adri van der Merwe.

fter several reports of fraud with regard to advertisements on online sites such as Gumtree, people are warned to be cautious of scams. In the most recent scam, a Durbanville resident bought a puppy online and paid R16 500, but never received the dog (“Internethond bly nou dalk net ’n droom”, 21/3). Claire Cobbledick, head of core business for Gumtree South Africa, warns that consumers always need to stay alert for scammers. “The overwhelming majority of online transactions pass off safely, but as platforms sharpen their security and new players enter the market, new scams are created. Fortunately these are fairly easy to identify,” she says. Cobbledick highlights some of the current scam warning signs. “Be cautious when potential buyers ask you to delete your ad or communicate only via WhatsApp. This makes it hard for the platform to track your communication. Work though the brand app or platform only, and keep your ad active until the item is sold. Do not provide your direct email address or phone number,” she warns. “Also look out for potential buyers who
claim to work offshore. Of course not everyone who works offshore is a scammer, but be extra suspicious if they refuse to communicate via Skype, claim that they don’t have phone access, or that they work on an oil rig or at a mine in a foreign country. “Also be very alert to anyone willing to pay for the item via PayPal or money transfer without viewing it,” she says. “Be alerted when car buyers, in particular, ask for information not related to the item, such as your bank account details, whether or not your car is equipped with an alarm system or your ID number. “Watch out for potential buyers who refer to your advert in vague terms – referring to ‘the item’ or ‘your merchandise’. “Anyone who does not want to meet in person to assess the item or to finalise the deal should concern you, unless there is an obvious geographical reason for this.” “Anyone hounding you constantly to make a decision or a payment should send up a red flag. Bad spelling, foreign telephone numbers or a refusal to share information are all warning signs.Keep a hawk’s eye out for suspect behaviours during your communication. If in doubt, then back out and report your suspicions to the site so we can follow up. Our helpdesk operates 24/7. Any confirmed fraudulent activity must also be reported to the police,” she says.

Having a ball at Boston market D
anie Uys Park opposite DF Malan High School’s sports grounds was once again transformed into a buzzing hive of activity on Human Rights Day, 21 March. With vendors setting up various stalls and visitors coming and going throughout the day, the families of the Boston community can indeed claim bragging rights to their growing Boston Craft Market. “We have had the best and busiest market to date,” says Coreen Walton in a statement. “Boston/Bellville residents – and from further afield – attended in their droves and were delighted with over 50 craft and food stalls and fantastic entertainment for the kids: a Zorb ball, Bungee Bounce (that was a big hit) and the Rocket to enjoy.
“The craft stalls offered handmade crafts from jewellery to delicately crafted woodwork and pottery. Our crafters are very environmentally conscious with innovative upcycling like old LPs transformed into bowls,” she says. “The food vendors outdid themselves again, offering a spread of freshly made dishes , from Mexican to Indian and good old boere-favourites, pannekoek and jaffels.” The craft market is now a regular fixture in Boston and the next market will take place on Worker’s Day, 1 May, at the Seventh Day Adventist Church hall in Boston Street, Walton says. The pictures were taken by Leonie Strickland and Ettienne Kotze.

Leersame kamp vir avontuurklublede: Lede van die Angraavontuurklub (wat uit leerders van verskeie laerskole bestaan) het op 17 Maart ’n oorslaapkamp meegemaak waar hulle onder meer die uitgrawings by die Langebaan-fossielpark besoek het. Hier ervaar die klublede hoe ’n argeloog te werk gaan om fossiele en ander opgrawings uit te grawe. Terselfdertyd het ander leerders aan Laerskool Bellville-Noord se Groenklub ’n waterpark op ’n plaas in die Paarl besoek en meer oor die binnewerking van die Hugenote-tonnel geleer.
