Popular night race overwhelmed by eager runners
The popularity of the night run concept in Stellenbosch was once again proved when the annual Moore Stephens Night Race last week was so overwhelmed with prospective runners that organizers could not enter everyone on time and had to delay the start by 25 minutes.
This popular night race over two distances of 10km and 5km respectively, took place for the fifth year in succession, and started at Stellenbosch High School on Wednesday, 11 October.
According to Erik Eloff, chairman of the Stellenbosch Athletics Club, who was responsible for the race's arrangements, they underestimated the popularity of the race which resulted in a large bottleneck at the registration tables. Although their club has already received about 600 entries online, they have to ensure that all participants are officially enrolled in terms of their legal obligations. When it became apparent that all athletes could not enter in time, the start was delayed by 25 minutes. An unknown number of runners had to turn around or participate unofficially. According to the official results, 668 finished the 10km and 735 the 5km distances.
Despite the peak-hour traffic and the fact that both races started in the dark, the arrangements for the two distances run through the streets of Stellenbosch went well. Mr Eloff had only praise for the Stellenbosch traffic department, who made sure that there were no delays at all the difficult street crossings. He has assured that their club will be much more prepared next year to handle a large number of entries.
The 10km winner was Sibusiso Madikizela in a time of 30:50 minutes, with Danzil Paulse second at 31:30 and Victor Motsi third in 31:35. In the women's race, Thineke Fourie was first in 37; 43; second was Theresa Fourie in 38:42; and third Mia Steytler in 39:21. The 5km was won by Menzi Khoza in 21:03, second was Danya Engelbrecht in 28:29 and third Madelie Liebetrau in 30:27.
The Moore Stephens Night Run is part of the approximately 30 e'Bosch heritage projects hosted annually around heritage month September, by the various villages and neighbourhoods of Stellenbosch. This year there were participation of, among others, villages such as Cloetesville, Ida’s Valley, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby and Stellenbosch Central during the month of September.
"Moore Stephens Stellenbosch decided to join the e'Bosch Heritage Project in 2013 by launching the Moore Stephens Night Run. The purpose of this race is to involve all of the communities and surrounding villages to celebrate our heritage together. Moore Stephens also sponsors more than 50 children from the ANNA Foundation every year to take part in this event, " said Moore Stephens director Izak du Plessis.

Gewilde nagwedloop oorval met deelnemers
Die gewildheid van ‘n nagwedloop op Stellenbosch is weereens bewys toe die jaarlikse Moore Stephens Nagwedloop verlede week so met voornemende deelnemers oorval is dat organiseerders noodgedwonge ‘n groot aantal nie amptelik kon laat inskryf nie en die wegtrek met 25 minute moes uitstel.
Hierdie gewilde nagwedloop wat nou vir die vyfde jaar agtereenvolgens aangebied is, het Woensdagaand, 11 Oktober, by Hoërskool Stellenbosch oor twee afstande van 10km en 5km onderskeidelik begin.
Volgens Erik Eloff, voorsitter van Stellenbosch Atletiekklub, wat vir die wedloop se reëlings verantwoordelik was, het hulle die populariteit van die wedloop onderskat wat ‘n groot bottelnek by die inskryftafels veroorsaak het. Hoewel klub het reeds sowat 600 inskrywings vooraf aanlyn ontvang, moet die klub weens hul regsverpligtinge op die dag seker maak dat alle deelnemers amptelik ingeskryf is. Toe dit duidelik raak dat al die atlete nie betyds sou kon inskryf nie, is die wegtrek met 25 minute uitgestel. ‘n Onbekende aantal hardlopers moes dus omdraai of nie-amptelik deelneem. Volgens die uitslae het 668 toe die 10km- en 735 die 5km-afstande voltooi.
Ten spyte van die druk verkeer en die feit dat beide die wedlope in die donkerte begin is, het die reëlings vir die twee afstande se bane deur die strate van Stellenbosch egter baie goed verloop. Mnr Eloff was ook vol lof vir die Stellenbosch-verkeersafeling wat seker gemaak het dat daar geen oponthoude by al die moeilike straatkruisings was. Hy het die versekering gegee dat hulle volgende jaar baie meer voorbereid sal wees om ‘n groot aantal inskrywings op die dag te hanteer.
Die wenner van die 10km was Sibusiso Madikizela in ‘n tyd van 30:50 minute, met Danzil Paulse tweede in 31:30 en Victor Motsi derde in 31:35. In die damesafeling was Thineke Fourie eerste in 37;43; tweede was Theresa Fourie in 38:42 en derde Mia Steytler in 39:21. Die 5km is deur Menzi Khoza in 21:03 gewen, tweede was Danya Engelbrecht in 28:29 en derde Madelie Liebetrau in 30:27.
Die Moore Stephens Nagpretloop is deel van die sowat 30 e’Bosch-erfenisprojekte wat jaarliks rondom September, deur die onderskeie dorpies en woonbuurte van Stellenbosch aangebied word. Vanjaar was daar deelname van onder meer dorpies soos Cloetesville, Idasvallei, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby en Stellenbosch-sentraal gedurende die maand September.
"Moore Stephens Stellenbosch het besluit om in 2013 deel te raak van die e’Bosch-erfenisprojek deur die Moore Stephens Night Run te begin. Die doel van hierdie wedloop is om almal van die gemeenskap en omliggende dorpies te betrek om saam ons erfenis te vier. Moore Stephens borg elke jaar meer as 50 kinders van die ANNA Foundation om deel te neem,” sê Izak du Plessis, ‘n direkteur van die Moore Stephens.

e’Bosch se landkuns huldig natuurerfenis
Die e‘Bosch-erfenisprojek het vanjaar besondere klem geplaas op die omgewing. Toekennings is gemaak aan mense en instellings wat hul beywer vir die bewaring van Stellenbosch en omgewing se natuurlike erfenis, en verlede Saterdag het landkuns-aktiwiteite by Koloniesland langs die Eersterivier plaaslike kreatiwiteit met behulp van die natuur-erfenis aangemoedig.
Benewens ‘n heerlike Eersterivier-familiestap langs die rivierwalle wat tans van kappertjies tot bobbejaantjies en viooltjies en ander bolplante oortrek is, het lede van EcoMaties en studente van die Universiteit Stellenbosch se departement visuele kunste gebou aan landkuns-installasies en ook bootjies om deel te neem aan ‘n resies op die rivier - alles deel van die tema “Herverbintenis met die rivier” (Reconnect with the River).
Die bootjies van boombas, riete, blomme en grasse, alles kunstig saamgebind, is te water gelaat en is tot by die eindstreep luidkeels aangemoedig.
Die geleentheid is gereël deur Wildlands (wat ‘n e’Bosch-toekenning ontvang het) en Stellenbosch Trails Fund as deel van die Stellenbosch River Stewardship Action. Die Koloniesland-gebied het verskeie stappaadjies wat deur die STF gebou is en ‘n veilige plek vir buitemuurse aktiwiteite bied.
By dié geleentheid is ook stories vertel oor die rol van water. Khoisan-hoofman Cornelius Hendriks het die heiligheid van water en veral riviere beklemtoon wat was, klere was en dors les betref. Jong mense het mekaar ook by die rivier ontmoet.
“Ons mense het eerder melk gedrink wanneer water skaars is, sodat daar water vir ons vee en die natuur was. Tydens volmaan is daar gesmeek om reën. ‘n Mens moet respek vir water hê,” het hy gesê.
Ter illustrasie van hoe belangrik water vir die Khoisan is, vertel hy toe Bartholomeus Dias by Santosstrand geland het om sy watervoorraad aan te vul, het die Khoisan gesien hoe sy mense met die water mors. Dit het die Khoi so ontstel dat hulle Dias se mense onder die klippe gesteek het, en iemand is in die onderonsie ook gedood met ‘n pyl en boog. “Waar daar water is, is daar krag en lewe. Ek werk by die rioolwerke waar ons moet verhoed dat te veel chloor in die water beland wat skadelik vir mens en dier is. Ek moet balans bring, want ek weet hoe belangrik water is,” sluit Hendriks af.
Prof. Jan Giliomee, bekende entomoloog en dekades lange voorsitter van die Vriende van die Jan Marais-natuurreservaat (ook ‘n ontvanger van ‘n e’Bosch-tekenning vir natuurerfenis, vertel dat die rivier ontstaan het ná sekere seismiese gebeure en die Jonkershoekvallei gevorm het. Die rivier se een loop was langs Uniepark en die ander waar Banghoekweg is, en wat later een loop gevorm het. Die eiland waarop Simon van der Stel uitgekamp met sy besoek aan Stellenbosch op 7 November 1679, was ongeveer waar die Kweekskool nou is. Die rede daarvoor was waarskynlik uit vrees vir wilde diere soos leeus wat destyds volop in dié gebied was.
Die naam Eersterivier is afkomstig weens die feit dat dit die eerste rivier was wat goew. Van der Stel ná hy Kaapstad verlaat het, waargeneem het. Giliomee het ook genoem die US het destyds beoog om ‘n woonbuurt by Koloniesland op te rig. Intussen het hy en ander gemeenskapslede probeer om dit te beplant met inheemse bome, wat ‘n gesukkel was omdat die grond vol gruis is wat vanuit die steengroef aan die ander kant van die rivier hier gestort is.
“Dit sal jammer wees om hierdie groen area op te offer as ‘n woonbuurt, veral noudat Richard de Villiers en ander lede van STF hierdie pragtige paadjies uitgelê het,” het Giliomee gesê.
Die dringende oproep om reën is besonder goed verwoord in ‘n lied wat by die geleentheid deur die sanggroep United Brothers van Kayamandi gesing is.

Ter illustrasie van hoe belangrik water vir die Khoisan is, vertel hy toe Bartholomeus Dias by Santosstrand geland het om sy watervoorraad aan te vul, het die Khoisan gesien hoe sy mense met die water mors. Dit het die Khoi so ontstel dat hulle Dias se mense onder die klippe gesteek het, en iemand is in die onderonsie ook gedood met ‘n pyl en boog. “Waar daar water is, is daar krag en lewe. Ek werk by die rioolwerke waar ons moet verhoed dat te veel chloor in die water beland wat skadelik vir mens en dier is. Ek moet balans bring, want ek weet hoe belangrik water is,” sluit Hendriks af.
Prof. Jan Giliomee, bekende entomoloog en dekades lange voorsitter van die Vriende van die Jan Marais-natuurreservaat (ook ‘n ontvanger van ‘n e’Bosch-tekenning vir natuurerfenis, vertel dat die rivier ontstaan het ná sekere seismiese gebeure en die Jonkershoekvallei gevorm het. Die rivier se een loop was langs Uniepark en die ander waar Banghoekweg is, en wat later een loop gevorm het. Die eiland waarop Simon van der Stel uitgekamp met sy besoek aan Stellenbosch op 7 November 1679, was ongeveer waar die Kweekskool nou is. Die rede daarvoor was waarskynlik uit vrees vir wilde diere soos leeus wat destyds volop in dié gebied was.
Die naam Eersterivier is afkomstig weens die feit dat dit die eerste rivier was wat goew. Van der Stel ná hy Kaapstad verlaat het, waargeneem het. Giliomee het ook genoem die US het destyds beoog om ‘n woonbuurt by Koloniesland op te rig. Intussen het hy en ander gemeenskapslede probeer om dit te beplant met inheemse bome, wat ‘n gesukkel was omdat die grond vol gruis is wat vanuit die steengroef aan die ander kant van die rivier hier gestort is.
“Dit sal jammer wees om hierdie groen area op te offer as ‘n woonbuurt, veral noudat Richard de Villiers en ander lede van STF hierdie pragtige paadjies uitgelê het,” het Giliomee gesê.
Die dringende oproep om reën is besonder goed verwoord in ‘n lied wat by die geleentheid deur die sanggroep United Brothers van Kayamandi gesing is.

Stellenbosch se gewildste nagwedloop volgende week Woensdag, 11 Okt, vanaf Hoërskool Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch se gewilde Moore Stephens Nagwedloop wat vanjaar vir die vyfde keer agtereenvolgens aangebied word, begin volgende week Woensdag, 11 Oktober, om 18:15 by Hoërskool Stellenbosch se sportgronde.
Hierdie wedloop, ‘n hoogtepunt op Stellenbosch se atletiek-kalender, is ‘n besonderse ervaring aangesien dit net voor sononder begin en daarna ‘n roete deur die strate van die dorp en langs die Eersterivier volg. Daar is ‘n maklike roete van 5km vir die hele familie waaraan stappers en selfs ouers met hul kinders in stootwaentjies deelneem terwyl die langer roete van 10km vir die ernstige atlete is.
Die 10km begin stiptelik om 18:15 en kos R60 plus ‘n ekstra R30 vir ‘n tydelike lisensie. Die 5km begin om 18:30 en kos R30 om in te skryf. Inskrywings kan reeds aanlyn by entryninja.com tot 4 Oktober by gedoen word. Daar is ook geleentheid om op die dag van die wedloop vooraf by Hoërskool Stellenbosch vanaf 15:00 tot 18:00 in te skryf.
Die Moore Stephens Nagpretloop is deel van die sowat 30 e’Bosch-erfenisprojekte wat jaarliks rondom erfenisdag, 24 September, deur die onderskeie dorpies en woonbuurte van Stellenbosch aangebied word. Vanjaar was daar deelname van onder meer dorpies soos Cloetesville, Idasvallei, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby en Stellenbosch-sentraal gedurende die maand September.
"Moore Stephens Stellenbosch het besluit om in 2013 deel te raak van die e’Bosch-erfenisprojek deur die Moore Stephens Night Run te begin. Die doel van hierdie wedloop is om almal van die gemeenskap en omliggende dorpies te betrek om saam ons erfenis te vier. Moore Stephens borg elke jaar meer as 50 kinders van die ANNA Foundation om deel te neem,” sê Izak du Plessis, ‘n direkteur van die Moore Stephens.
Verlede jaar se nagpretloop was 'n groot sukses en is in perfekte weer afgehandel met 'n rekordgetal van 1450 deelnemers wat voltooi het naamlik 742 in die 10km en 708 in die 5km-afdeling. Die 10km is gewen deur Nuyolwethu Mbupushe van RSC Gugs in 'n tyd van 27min en 40 sekondes met Justin Fritz van Ceres in 27:51 en Tsungai Mwanengeni van RCS Gugs in 28:18.

Media Release
Business engages in the future heritage of Stellenbosch
To weave the social fabric of Stellenbosch into an inclusive community where everyone knows, appreciates and respects one another was the main theme of a business workshop presented by the e’Bosch Heritage Project at Stellenbosch.
The workshop, sponsored by Distell for the second consecutive year as part of the e’Bosch Heritage Project festivities during the month of September was facilitated by Thandi Chaane, an expert change-enabler.
Ms Chaane works with communities throughout the African continent on human rights, transformation and cultural diversity shared her personal experience from the 1976 uprising to her current involvement in the South African business sector. She provided a constructive backdrop to the understanding of our current political, economic and social challenges and the effect it might have on our future.
The event focused on South Africa’s social heritage, how it impacts business and communities and how we may build a sustainable future heritage despite a changing political, economic and social environment.
“The vision of the e’Bosch Heritage Project is to weave the social fabric of Stellenbosch into an inclusive community where everyone knows, appreciates and respects one another. Distell’s support is invaluable to the project’s progress thus far and we believe that ultimately the business community can achieve significant return on investment in the social fabric of Stellenbosch,” says Dr Sias Mostert, chairperson of the e’Bosch Heritage Project executive committee.
“As business in Stellenbosch, it is important to support initiatives that build on the social fabric of this beautiful community. We appreciate the contributions of the facilitator Thandi Chaane, an educator by heart, who delivered an inspiring message which brings South African history to life through her personal experiences and encounters,” says Nichole Solomons, Manager: Distell Sustainable Socio-Economic Development
“Many light and intense moments were shared but it is up to those who live, work and play in Stellenbosch to take their learnings to heart and move forward. The workshop was experienced as inspirational, sincere and action-driven by all,” says Ms Solomons.

Stellenbossers ooraloor vier hul erfenis op gepaste wyse
Verskeie Stellenbosch-gemeenskappe het die afgelope naweek rondom Erfensidag, 24 September, hul bewustheid van ons erfenis getoon deur ‘n groot aantal saamtrekke en feesvieringe in hul onderskeie dorpies en woonbuurte as deel van die e’Bosch-erfenisprojek aan te bied.
‘n Uitstaande kenmerk van vanjaar se vieringe is dat gemeenskappe onder die vaandel van die e’Bosch-erfenisprojek nie net enkele projek aanbied nie, maar eerder uitbreide programme wat selfs oor verskeie dae kon strek. Mintens 30 saamtrekke is sodoende verwesenlik deur bydraes van onder meer dorpies soos Cloetesville, Idasvallei, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby en Stellenbosch-sentraal.
Die doelstelling van die e'Bosch-erfenispojek, nou in sy sewende bestaansjaar, is om op Stellenboch ‘n gemeenskaplike kultuur tot stand te bring waar daar wedersydse respek en vertroue tussen al die bevolkingsroepe is en almal welkom en tuis voel.

“Die e'Bosch-erfenisprojek, nou in sy sewende jaar, is 'n proses wat klein begin het na die identifisering van 'n uitgesproke behoefte vir veranding en om 'n groter gedeelte van ons gemeenskap te betrek. Vanjaar se deelname getuig weereens van individue en korporatiewe organisasies se bereidwilligheid om onderlinge respek en waardering vir mekaar te help ontwikkel,” sê Johann Murray voorsitter van die e’Bosch-erfenisprojek se reëlingskomitee.
“Dit plaas ook fokus op die identifisering van kernbehoegtes binne ons gemeenskappe wat ons steeds moet aanspreek. Vandag, soos toe, bly die groot vraag: watter verksil kan ons maak aan ons toekomstige erfenis? e'Bosch nooi weereens almal uit om ons projekte te ondersteun en deel te neem aan die skep van 'n inklusiewe kultuur vir Stellenbosch en sy dorpies wat by ons almal geborgenheid en trots sal bring,” sê Johann.

Media Release
Land Art celebrated in Koloniesland
This year the e’Bosch Heritage Project has been focusing to a large extent on the environment, with heritage awards going to organisations conserving our environment, and to top it all, a Land Art gathering will be held where nature, conservation and art will all be celebrated together.
This event, a first for Stellenbosch, will take place on Saturday 30 September, from 09:00 to 15:00 at Koloniesland, next to the Eerste River.
While land artists will be constructing their land art from natural materials collected on site, the Eerste River Run will commence at 09:00. This free family fun run of about 7 km, will include a crossing of the Eerste River at the old drift of Mostertsdrift.
This beautiful site along the Eerste River has been restored by Wildlands and Stellenbosch Trail Fund (STF) as part of Stellenbosch River Stewardship Action. The Koloniesland Park also features new walking paths, built by the STF, and is a safe space for all kinds of outdoor activities.
Wildlands will be presenting their Trees for Life exhibition and have an information desk in the middle of the park. They will also offer a shuttle service for people in Kayamandi (Kayamandi Tourism Corridor), Ida’s Valley (library) and the Kruithuis on the Braak from 08:00 that morning.
Apart from viewing the land art created by local artists and art students, you can also attend the Story Circle that will be held from 13:00 to 14:00. Come and listen to history as told by local historians, a KhoiSan chief and a Xhosa resident, with the Eerste River as theme.
EcoMaties, a Stellenbosch University student sustainability organisation, and students from the visual arts department, will also bring a special display of their water projects. Handcraft of local crafters will also be exhibited in the park. Their theme is “Reconnect with the Rivers”.
Coffee can be bought at Koloniesland, and you can bring your own snacks or picnic along.
Please remember to park in the section of Jannasch Street adjacent to the Stellenbosch High and Primary Schools and the Jan Marais Nature Reserve, and not near the gate that leads to Koloniesland and the Eerste River.
The Eerste River, together with the Krom, Plankenbrug and Blaauwklippen Rivers, are truly in good hands, with wonderful conservation work being done by NPOs such as Wildlands, Stellenbosch Trail Fund, the Stellenbosch Municipality and companies such as Distell, Spier and Remgro, as well as Stellenbosch University. They all form part of the Stellenbosch River Collaborative, with the Stellenbosch River Stewardship Action doing the actual work of conserving our rivers and their surrounds.
The conservation work is an extension of the municipality’s Adopt a River-programme, and as many as 14 institutions are now taking stewardship of Stellenbosch’s rivers. These organisations have each adopted a section of a river and taking responsibility for keeping it clean and clear of alien invasive plants and rubbish.
For more information on the Land Art gathering, call Lydia van Rooyen of Wildlands on 060 500 0823 and for info on the Fun Run, call Richard de Villiers of STF on 083 310 1105 or see www.ebosch.co.za

e’Bosch school choir festival reaches new heights
A record number of some 1,100 learners from 24 Stellenbosch and Franschhoek schools will participate in the e'Bosch school choir festival in September this year.
Apart from the fact that it represents the biggest participation since the school choir festival was presented for the first time in 2012, this e’Bosch flagship event will this year also achieve its highest level of professional support so far. Choir leaders at the various schools will receive coaching for the first time from inter alia Stellenbosch University's music department and practical support through the Matie Community Service department.
"This year's interest again demonstrates the need for such an opportunity where children, through participation in choir singing without the pressure of competition, get to know each other in a spontaneous way, build character, experience inner enrichment and celebrate their unity as Stellenbosch's youth," says Johann Murray, chairman of the e'Bosch organizing committee and co-ordinator of this year's choir festivals.
"We look forward to the performance of 490 learners from 8 of Stellenbosch High Schools on Tuesday, 19 September, at 19:00 at Bloemhof Girls High School and 650 learners from 18 primary schools at 18:00 on Friday evening, 22 September in the Stellenbosch city hall. Entry is free.
"This year we have four new primary schools that set up their choirs for the first time to participate. The Stellenbosch University Music Department, which produced the best student choir in the world, is providing us with invaluable support by offering two weekends training to 13 of the primary school choir leaders. The Matie Community Service department also mobilizes students to support choir leaders at 10 of the schools with coaching and guidance," says Murray.
Stellenbosch's e'Bosch Heritage Project now in its 7th year of existence is one of the most unique movements of its kind in the country that proactively encourages the participation of all the villages or ‘dorpies’ of the area in their effort to create a common culture and a united future legacy for the greater Stellenbosch district.
The movement’s vision is to establish a culture of voluntary participation in enjoyable opportunities through which communities can get to know each other, appreciate and respect each other and thereby pave the way for sharing common goals.
The towns from the greater Stellenbosch district that have contributed so far include Cloetesville, Ida’s Valley, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby, Vlottenburg and Stellenbosch Central, as well as the farm communities.
The school choir festival, made possible by sponsorships of major companies in Stellenbosch as well as BASA, is one of the highlights of the e'Bosch Heritage Project's program of about 30 items presented during September this year. See more about the project at http://www.ebosch.co.za.

e'Bosch se skoolkoorfees bereik nuwe hoogtes
‘n Rekordgetal van sowat 1100 leerders van 24 skole uit die Stellenbosch- en Franschhoek-omgewing sal vanjaar aan die e’Bosch-skoolkoorfees deelneem.
Afgesien van die feit dat dit die grootste deelname verteenwoordig sedert die skoolkoorfees in 2012 vir die eerste keer aangebied is, bereik hierdie vlagskip-aanbieding van e’Bosch vanjaar ook sy hoogste vlak van professionelealiteit ondersteuning tot dusver. Koorleiers by die verskeieonderskeie skole ontvang vanjaar afrigting van onder meer Stellenbosch Universiteit se musiekdepartment en praktiese ondersteuning via Maties Gemeenskapsdiens.
“Die belangstelling vanjaar getuig weereens van die behoefte aan so ‘n geleentheid, waar kinders deur deelname aan koorsang sonder die druk van kompetisie op spontane wyse mekaar leer ken, karakter bou, innerlike verryking ervaar en hul samehorigheid as Stellenbosch se jeug kan vier,” sê Johann Murray, voorsitter van die e’Bosch-reëlingskomitee en koördineerder van vanjaar se koorfeeste.
“Ons sien uit na die optrede van 490 leerders van 8 van Stellenbosch se hoërskole op Dinsdagaand, 19 September, om 19:00 by Hoër Meisieskool Bloemhof om 19:00 en 650 leerders van 183 laerskole op Vrydagaand, 22 September, om 18:00 in Stellenbosch se stadsaal. Kaartjies sal by die deure beskikbaar wees.Toegang is gratis.
“Vanjaar is daar vier laerskole wat vir die eerste keer ‘n koor op die been bring om deel te kan neem. Die Universiteit van Stellenbosch se musiekdepartement, wat die beste studentekoor in die wêreld voortgebring het, ondersteun hierdie skole deur oor twee naweke opleiding aan 13 van die laerskool-koorleiers te bied. Die Maties Gemeenskapdiens mobiliseer verder studente vir 10 van die skole wat koorleiers met afrigting en begeleiding bystaan,” sê mnr. Murray.
Stellenbosch se e’Bosch-erfenisprojek is een van die mees unieke bewegings van sy soort in die land wat homself beywer vir die deelname van al die dorpies van die omgewing in hul poging om ‘n gemeenskaplike kultuur en 'n verenigde toekomstige erfenis[J1] vir die groter Stellenbosch-distrik tot stand te bring.
Stellenbosch se e’Bosch-erfenisprojek is ‘n unieke inklusiewe beweging wat gemik is op die vestiging van ‘n kultuur van vrywillige deelname aan genotvolle geleenthede waardeur gemeenskappe mekaar kan leer ken, waardeer en respekteer en daardeur die pad baan vir die saamerk aan gemeenskaplike doelwitte.
Die dorpies wat tot dusver ‘n bydrae gelewer het, is onder meer Cloetesville, Idasvallei, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby, Vlottenburg en Stellenbosch-sentraal, sowel as die plaasgemeenskappe.
Die skoolkoorfees, wat moontlik gemaak word deur borgskappe van groot maatskappye in Stellenbosch asook BASA, is een van die hoogtepunte op die e’Bosch-erfenisprojek se program van sowat 30 items wat gedurende September vanjaar aangebied word. Die volle program kan by http://www.ebosch.co.za/program.html afgelaai word.

“Ons sien uit na die optrede van 490 leerders van 8 van Stellenbosch se hoërskole op Dinsdagaand, 19 September, om 19:00 by Hoër Meisieskool Bloemhof om 19:00 en 650 leerders van 183 laerskole op Vrydagaand, 22 September, om 18:00 in Stellenbosch se stadsaal. Kaartjies sal by die deure beskikbaar wees.Toegang is gratis.
“Vanjaar is daar vier laerskole wat vir die eerste keer ‘n koor op die been bring om deel te kan neem. Die Universiteit van Stellenbosch se musiekdepartement, wat die beste studentekoor in die wêreld voortgebring het, ondersteun hierdie skole deur oor twee naweke opleiding aan 13 van die laerskool-koorleiers te bied. Die Maties Gemeenskapdiens mobiliseer verder studente vir 10 van die skole wat koorleiers met afrigting en begeleiding bystaan,” sê mnr. Murray.
Stellenbosch se e’Bosch-erfenisprojek is een van die mees unieke bewegings van sy soort in die land wat homself beywer vir die deelname van al die dorpies van die omgewing in hul poging om ‘n gemeenskaplike kultuur en 'n verenigde toekomstige erfenis[J1] vir die groter Stellenbosch-distrik tot stand te bring.
Stellenbosch se e’Bosch-erfenisprojek is ‘n unieke inklusiewe beweging wat gemik is op die vestiging van ‘n kultuur van vrywillige deelname aan genotvolle geleenthede waardeur gemeenskappe mekaar kan leer ken, waardeer en respekteer en daardeur die pad baan vir die saamerk aan gemeenskaplike doelwitte.
Die dorpies wat tot dusver ‘n bydrae gelewer het, is onder meer Cloetesville, Idasvallei, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby, Vlottenburg en Stellenbosch-sentraal, sowel as die plaasgemeenskappe.
Die skoolkoorfees, wat moontlik gemaak word deur borgskappe van groot maatskappye in Stellenbosch asook BASA, is een van die hoogtepunte op die e’Bosch-erfenisprojek se program van sowat 30 items wat gedurende September vanjaar aangebied word. Die volle program kan by http://www.ebosch.co.za/program.html afgelaai word.

Media Release
e'Bosch honors contributions to our natural heritage this year
Individuals and organizations that have made a positive contribution to the conservation and development of our indigenous natural heritage will receive awards from the Stellenbosch's e'Bosch Heritage Project this year.
"We look forward to nominations for individuals and organizations from our region that have contributed positively to the conservation and restoration of our native plant or animal kingdom," says Dr. Sias Mostert, chairperson of Stellenbosch's e'Bosch Heritage Project executive committee.
Nominations can be made for contributions in the form of education and dissemination of expertise; research; practical work in forestry or fynbos; projects with an impact on a community; the eradication of alien plants; or any innovative contributions. Those who wish to submit candidates can send Johann Bierman an SMS on 083 406 2621 or email to [email protected] to obtain a nomination form. Nominations close at 12:00 on 15 August. The awards to finalists will be presented on 30 August at the annual e'Bosch Heritage Project opening function.
The Stellenbosch's e'Bosch Heritage Project, one of the most unique movements of its kind in the country, proactively engages all the communities in the greater Stellenbosch district in its effort to create a common culture and a united future legacy for the area.
Representatives from at least ten villages or dorpies in the area are expected to reunite in their efforts during heritage month, September this year. The dorpies that have contributed so far include inter alia Cloetesville, Idas Valley, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby, Vlottenburg and Stellenbosch Central, as well as the farm communities
"The e'Bosch Heritage Project is now in its seventh year of existence. Through this project the communities of Stellenbosch engage in a practical way to build an inclusive future. This year, the project is expanding its activities to promote a culture of entrepreneurship as part of our goal of establishing a sustainable heritage.
"Apart from our variety of projects in the field of debate, sport, art and music, our vision is to utilize the skills of the people in the 10 dorpies by providing entrepreneurship education and building bridges with the business sector. We believe that this will, in addition to our other projects, help to address the fragility in our society at large. All in all our projects are instrumental in weaving a healthy social fabric within which business, communities and individuals can flourish," says Dr. Mostert.

e'Bosch vereer bydraes tot inheemse natuur-erfenis vanjaar
Individue en organisasies wat ‘n positiewe bydrae gelewer het tot die behoud en ontwikkeling van ons inheemse natuur-erfenis sal vanjaar toekennings van Stellenbosch se e’Bosch-erfenisprojek ontvang.
“Ons sien uit na nominasies vir individue en organisasies uit ons streek wat oor ‘n redelike tydperk ‘n positiewe bydrae gelewer het tot die behoud en restourasie van ons inheemse plante- of diereryk,” sê dr. Sias Mostert, voorsitter van die uitvoerende komitee van Stellenbosch se e’Bosch-erfenisprojek.
Nominasies kan gemaak word vir bydraes in die vorm van opvoeding en verspreiding van kundigheid; navorsing, praktiese werk in bosbou of met fynbos, projekte met ‘n impak op ‘n gemeenskap; die uitroei van indringerplante; en innoverende bydraes. Diegene wat nominasies wil indien kan Johann Bierman sms by 083 406 2621 of epos stuur na [email protected].
Stellenbosch se e’Bosch-erfenisprojek, een van die mees unieke bewegings van sy soort in die land, vind vanjaar weer gedurende erfenismaand, September, plaas. Dit sal op 30 Augustus afskop met ‘n openingsfunksie waar die ere-toekennings vir natuur-erfenis gemaak sal word.
Daar word verwag dat verteenwoordigers van minstens tien dorpies uit die omgewing weer sal saamstaan in hul poging om ‘n gemeenskaplike kultuur en 'n verenigde toekomstige erfenis vir die groter Stellenbosch-distrik tot stand te bring.
Die dorpies wat tot dusver ‘n bydrae gelewer het, is onder meer Cloetesville, Idasvallei, Jamestown, Kayamandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Pniël, Raithby, Vlottenburg en Stellenbosch-sentraal, sowel as die plaasgemeenskappe.
“Die Stellenbosch e’Bosch-erfenisprojek is nou in sy sewende bestaansjaar. Die burgerlike samelewing van Stellenbosch stel met die e’Bosch-projek ‘n voorbeeld van 'n praktiese manier om 'n inklusiewe toekoms te bou. Vanjaar brei die projek uit met die byvoeging van aktiwiteite om 'n kultuur van entrepreneurskap as deel van ons doel om 'n volhoubare erfenis te vestig.” sê dr. Mostert.
“Afgesien van ons verskeidenheid van projekte op die gebied van debat, sport, kuns en musiek is ons visie vanjaar om die vaardigheid van die mense binne die 10 dorpies te benut deur entrepreneurs-opleiding te verskaf en daardeur ‘n brug te bou met die sakesektor. Die bou van brûe help om die gebrokenheid in die samelewing aan te spreek. Die projek verteenwoordig die suksesvolle implementering van ‘n innoverende suksesresep vir die weef van ‘n gesonde sosiale weefsel waarbinne besigheid, gemeenskappe en individue kan floreer,” sê dr. Mostert.
