You‛ve got mail
The fi lm “You’ve got mail” introduced many to e-mail in the late 1990’s when Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks as
two message-writing lovers shared e-mails whilst completely unaware that their mail-sweetheart is in fact
the person with whom they share a certain degree of animosity in person. Today most receive a multitude
of messages through a variety of devices and beg the question – “do we really communicate better?” How
often does one not see people busy communicating through a device whilst people around them are left
without someone to talk to?
That electronic devices have opened up new ways of communication no one can deny, but only time will tell
what the best way of communicating through the new devices will be. And while one ponders on this it is
always gratifying to hold printed media in one’s hands – enjoy this bumper edition of our local newsletter.
You’ve got mail.
Dit is voorjaar – dit is lente.
Daar word elke jaar met groot afwagting uitgesien na die Lente
wanneer die jaar se koue jas verruil word vir helder groen blare
en pragtige blomme. Die woord “Lente” is ontleen van Nederlands
en dui op die tyd van die jaar waar die lengte van die dae
en die nagte presies dieselfde tydsduur is. Die werklike datum
is inderwaarheid meer rondom 22 of 23 September, maar ons
warmer weer laat toe dat die datum tradisioneel vervroeg is na
1 September.
In die Lente val die eerste groot druppels reën met die groot
reëns en die Jakaranda’s wat blom in Oktober net om die draai
en begin die matrieks en ander studente stil-stil met voorbereidings
vir die jaareind eksamens. Ons vertrou dat hierdie Lente
‘n vreugdevolle voorjaar vir elkeen van ons lesers sal inlei en
bring ons graag die nuutste nuus van die dorp na elkeen.

Shopping
Maybe it’s just me. After all, I am a woman and I’m talking
from personal experience. There are very few things in life
that beat the feeling of an intense shopping spree and swiping
a credit card! Plastic is patient. And I’m not referring to the
shopping bags. These normally have brand names printed on
them and have proper handles.
Many of my friends have told me that I’m a bad influence when
it comes to shopping. They usually walk away from the mall
or market with loads of pretty goodies and an uneasy bank
balance. But shopping is good for the soul; and they
always walk away with a smile. Maybe it’s a worried
smile? How long will the shopping bags need to be
hidden in the back of the car? How will she explain to
hubby that these items were actually “much needed”;
or that she bought “for the kids”?
Those (brave) men who want to understand the
reasons behind our love for shopping, can Google all
the endless views on the topic. But I have to quote
(and translate) from a write-up done by brilliant and
hilariously funny Afrikaans writer, André le Roux:
“She goes out to buy trousers, shoes and other things
and comes home with the trousers, shoes and other
things - and a smile. Her hips hop, skip and jump
by themselves. She feels better, even if she didn’t
really feel bad to begin with. That’s what hormones
do. “Shopping just does something to a woman”, she admits. “You
have to try it”.
It is said that women are emotional shoppers, while men have
come up with their
own terminology
to justify their
purchases. They
don’t buy, they
“collect” (wine,
sport motors),
they “upgrade” (computers, cell phones) or they break
down the braai area and build a bigger one and justify it
with an excuse that it is “value appreciation”.
Square@Midstream (see our centerfold – you don’t
even have to ask for directions) is the ideal place
to visit if the happy hormones need to dust off
those feelings of emotional neglect. Go choose a
delectable piece of biltong, have that much needed
getaway planned for the family, spoil yourself
with an irresistible perfume or add to your wine
collection. Then sit back and relax – with a glass
of wine – and see how good you feel. “You have
to try it!”

Inkopies
Miskien is dit net ek… Ek is immers ‘n vrou. En ek
praat uit ondervinding. Daar is bitter min dinge wat die
gevoel klop van ‘n intense inkopietog en die “swipe” van
‘n kredietkaart! Plastiek is mos geduldig. En ek praat
nie van die inkopiesakkies nie - dié is gewoonlik deftiger
sakke met handelsname op en behoorlike handvatsels.
Menige vriendin het al vir my gesê ek is ‘n swak invloed
wanneer dit by inkopies kom. Hulle stap altyd by die
mark of winkelsentrum weg met ‘n wavrag mooi goed
en ‘n baie benoude bankbalans. Maar dit is mos goed
vir die siel; en hulle glimlag altyd daarna! Of miskien is
die glimlag eerder benoudheid, terwyl sy wonder hoe lank
die pakkies in die kattebak
weggesteek moet word, hoe
om vir manlief te verduidelik
dat die items eintlik “nodig”
was, dat sy eintlik “vir die
kinders” gekoop het…
Dié (manne) wat beter wil
verstaan kan gerus die
briljante en skreeusnaakse
André le Roux se verwante
rubrieke oor vroue se
koopgewoontes gaan lees.
Ek haal uit een van hulle aan:
“Sy gaan koop ‘n langbroek,
skoene of iets en kom by die
huis aan met die langbroek, skoene of iets - én ‘n
glimlag. Haar heupe huppel vanself. Sy voel beter al
het sy nie sleg gevoel om mee te begin nie. Dis soos
hormone werk. “Inkopies doen net iets aan ‘n vrou,
erken sy. “Jy moet dit ‘n slag probeer.”
Vroue koop mos “emosioneel”, terwyl mans hulle
eie terminologie ontwikkel het om hul aankope te
regverdig. Hulle koop nie, hulle “versamel” (wyn,
sportmotors), hulle “gradeer op” (rekenaars,
selfone); of die afbreek van die braaivleisplek en
die bou van ‘n groter een word verwerdig deur
“waardevermeerdering” as verskoning te gebruik.
Square@Midstream (sien ons middelblad - jy hoef
nie eers vir aanwysings te vra nie) is die ideale
plek om te besoek as jy nodig het vir daardie
goedvoel-hormone om die gestel te oorrompel.
Kies ‘n onweerstaanbare stuk biltong uit, reël
daardie broodnodige wegbreek, bederf jouself met
‘n lekkerruik-dingetjie of vul jou wynversameling
aan. Dan sit jy terug en ontspan – met ‘n glas wyn
in die hand – en sien hoe goed jy voel. “Jy moet
dit ‘n slag probeer!”

Bringing Healthcare to the Community in Need
Cure Day Clinics has shown dedication and awareness to those in need of healthcare but who are unable
to afford it. Cure Day Clinics feel a strong responsibility towards the community and have introduced a
policy of offering free expertise to underprivileged patients on a regular basis.
Over the last two years Cure Day Clinics has been compassionate toward the community by bringing
healthcare to those in need with projects like dental care for children
of the Abraham Kriel Childrens’ Home, Jakaranda Childrens’ Home
and the Louis Botha Orphanage. The children from Smile of Joy
and House Tjale’s were also educated on oral care and dental
treatments were performed. More than 100 children were given
dental care and treatments free of charge in 2010.
The Cure Day Clinic Medkin located in Louis Pasteur Building in
Pretoria will, together with committed healthcare professionals
and staff members, performed dental procedures on 21 children
from the Jakaranda, Bramley and Louis Botha Childrens’ Homes on
the 29 th of August this year. All free of charge.
Making our children smile brighter for a brighter future!
Mevrou Suid-Afrika

Grey-Hooded Gulls GYMNAST
When a seagull comes to mind, one can’t help but
think of sandy beaches and blue waves. Soon
everyone will be in full fl are of the Silly Season and
ready for the holidays!
Most residents might not have noticed, but we [us,
the residents of Midrand Estates] have our own
gulls roaming around at Midfi eld. The Grey-hooded
Gull a.k.a. Grey-headed Gull is a small gull which
breeds patchily in South America and Africa, South
of the Sahara.
It is not truly migratory, but is more widespread in
Winter.
This locally abundant gull breeds in large colonies
in reed beds and marshes, and lays two or three
eggs in a nest that can be on the ground or fl oating.
The Grey-headed Gull feeds on the ground and in
or around water and mainly invertebrates aquatic
life forms. This is the only inland gull and very
common in Gauteng. They have also been spotted
in the Kruger National Park.
The call is a raucous crow and characteristic of this
noisy species, especially at colonies. So look out
for them if you hear a “caw-caw” sound from the
Midfi eld Dam. It’s defi nitely not Trevor Noah hiding
in the bushes.
TENNIS MIDSTREAM
Die Tennis@Midstream tennisklub is baie trots op hulle tennislede wat
Gauteng Noord verteenwoordig het tydens die Interprovinsiale Veterane
Tennistoernooi wat onlangs in Pretoria gespeel is. Hulle het hul baie goed
van hul taak gekwyt. Die mans en dames tennisligas het ook pas tot ‘n
einde gekom en twee van die vier Midstream spanne het as wenners uit die
stryd getree in hul onderskeie ligas. Daar gaan vir die res van die jaar meer
op sosiale tennis gekonsentreer word. Sosiale tennis vind op Saterdagmiddae
om 14:00 plaas en alle belangstellendes is welkom.

in the Novice competi ti on, and was
invited to represent Northern Gauteng
at the South African Gymnasti cs Zone
competi ti on where she ended 3 rd
overall winner on the fl oor routi ne.
Ek wil net graag die
volgende, wonderlike storie
onder almal se aandag
bring. Ons gesinnetjie het
op die 2de September, die
Midstream Familie Kerk se
Lentefees bygewoon. Ons
10-maande oue dogtertjie, Lindi, het in haar
stootwaentjie geslaap toe ek skielik agterkom
dat sy iets soortgelyk aan ‘n aanval kry. Sy
het nie asemgehaal nie, het nie reageer
op enige iets nie en was blou in die gesig.
Binne minute was Dokters Kobus en Sanet
Venter daar om te help met mond-tot-mond
asemhaling. Iemand anders het intussentyd
die Midstream Paramedici geskakel, wat kort
daarna gearriveer en suurstof toegedien het.
Drs Venter het ook Lindi se pediater gekontak,
wat gereël het dat sy gehospitaliseer word.
Die paramedikus het selfs sy suurstoftenk
aan ons geleen om saam te neem hospitaal
toe. Bystanders het gehelp om ons 2-jarige
dogtertjie kalm te hou. Almal het gehelp!
Ek wil graag al die wonderlike mense bedank
wat ons gehelp het!
Lindi is opgeneem by Kloof Hospitaal as
gevolg van koorsstuipe en mangelontsteking.
Sy is nou piekfyn en gesond.

WANNEER BEGIN ONS SOMER
In Suid-Afrika word in die algemeen aanvaar, dat die vier seisoene - somer, herfs, winter en lente - respektiewelik
op Desember- Januarie- Februarie, op Maart- April- Mei, op Junie- Julie-en Augustus en op
September- Oktober- November betrekking het. Die seisoene kan astronomies of klimaties beskryf word.
Astronomies beteken dat die tye tussen die sonstilstande (21 Junie en 21 Desember) en die dag-en-nageweninge
(23 September en 21 Maart) as gevolg van die omwenteling van die aarde om die son, afgebakende
tye (seisoene) met spesifi eke kenmerke verteenwoordig.
Klimaties word die seisoene in die eerste opsig onderskei deur temperatuur, dagligure, vogtigheid, plantegroei,
die migrasie van diere, ens. waarvan die temperatuur die belangrikste indikator van seisoene is. Hoe
die seisoene in Midrand Landgoed ervaar word, word gedemonstreer van temperatuur- en windrigting-
metings.
Met die drastiese temperatuurstyging vind ook gelyktydig ʼn
windpatroon verandering plaas.
In Fig. 2 word die windrose vir Julie, Augustus, September
en Oktober getoon, wat die oorgang van winter na lente
(somer) demonstreer. In Julie is die windvoorkeurrigting
NNO. In Augustus is ʼn geleidelike toename van wind uit SSW
gemeet en in September en Oktober bly dit die dominerende
windrigting. Die windstiltes is onderskeidelik vir Julie,
Augustus. September en Oktober 16 %, 32%, 46% en 16%.
Windsnelhede is in die winter laag en hoër in die voorsomer.
Die Augustuswind waarvan dikwels gepraat word, dui dus
eintlik op die aanvang van die winderige somerseisoen.
11
In Fig. 1 word die nag- en dag- temperature van Desember
2006 tot November 2007 getoon. Dit wys duidelik, dat die
gemiddelde somertemperatuur deurgaans vir die nag 15 C°
en die dag 28 C° is. In die herfs daal die gemiddelde nagtemperatuur
gelydelik van 15 C° na onder 5 C° en gedurende
die dag van 28 C° na 20 C°. In die winter is die gemiddelde
nag temperatuur 3 C° en die dag 18 C°. Die oorgang van
winter na lente (somer) is redelik drasties. Die temperatuur
verander binne een week van ʼn koue winter- na ʼn behaaglike
lente- (somer-) temperatuur.
Alhoewel lentedag op 1 September gehou word, die swembaddens open, winter- vir somerklere verruil
word, vere- en elektriese komberse en verwarmers gebêre word ensovoorts, dui die hoë dag- en nag- temperatuur
vanaf einde Augustus begin September, in werklikheid op die begin van die somer. Dus begin die
somer, as net temperatuur in aanmerking geneem word, in September en word die lente seisoen oorgeslaan,
maar wat die plantegroei en die migrasie van diere aanbetref begin die lente wel in September.

Christian Parenting
Last week Avril,
my wife, lost her
dad. Michael, her
brother, and Del,
her mom, deserve
our love, support
and prayers. In
accordance with his
wishes he was buried. It never fails to make an
impact on me as I walk past the old gravestones
seeing what folks have written of their loved ones.
I know for myself what should be written on my
own mom’s gravestone. “Jesus said: let the little
children come to me.” (Mark, Ch10). And she did…
It’s the way she has always led her life. There were
many dark times when we were growing up, but
her faith never wavered. She taught little children
just beginning their journey of school and fi nally
stopped remedial teaching last year at the age of
83. She cared for my Dad who sits in a wheelchair
all day and all night, he can’t lie down. She never
complained. When she was told that she needed to
undergo surgery to remove Cancer from her chest,
her fi rst question was: “But who will look after
Daddy?” Later, after the operation, I asked her if
a Mother’s role………
12
she was afraid. She replied “for Daddy yes, but
you know, we Christians have a different attitude
towards death.”
I know the point of this article is not to just tell
you how important she was, but it is the example
I know best. I would probably never have arrived
at a Christian Faith without her constant, faithful
infl uence. All through my rebellious student life
she lovingly prayed for me - allowing me to make
stupid mistakes and take stupid decisions, taking
longer than average for my fi rst degree, dating a
whole lot of girls who would never be my wife…
Through it all a mother who faithfully prayed for
her family, lived a righteous life and never gave up,
believed and trusted that her family would come to
know the Lord who had so powerfully impacted her
life so many decades before.
What life lessons are our Christian moms teaching
our children today?

Midstream College
Matric M atric
farewell arewell

Dr Kriek is the team leader at
the High School at Midstream
College and hails from a family
of teachers. He was taught English
in his matric year by his mother
and mathematics by the headmaster
– his father – at Sybrand
van Niekerk High School in Sabie.
Dr Kriek sees the role of the teaching
team at Midstream College as creating an environment where
learners of the new South Africa can be prepared to lead the country
into the future. To achieve this he believes one must try new
things, embrace diversity and learn to adapt, while maintaining
keen focus and discipline.
Introducing the headmaster of Midstream College
Dr Kriek’s focus in his pursuit towards excellence in education is exemplifi ed in the PhD he obtained in the
subject development of mathematics for the senior secondary phase of schools. He has been an external
moderator in mathematics for the national educational body, Umalusi, since 2002. Dr Kriek was the deputy
principal at Affi es for 10 years before moving to Midstream College in 2006 to accept the challenge of establishing
a school from scratch. At Affi es he was the coach of the fi rst rugby team with Sakkie van der Walt,
achieving the incredible record of winning the Beeld Trophy (formally known as the Administrator’s Trophy)
9 out of 11 years. In those golden years of Affi es he coached, amongst others Pierre Spies, Fourie du Preez,
Faf du Plessis and AB de Villiers - current Springbok or Protea players.
In the end, Dr Kriek’s personal motivation in education is neither rugby nor maths, but rather seeing the
learners at Midstream College enjoy their time at school and develop their talents to the full. He believes the
wide range of facilities at Midstream College provides an amazing scope from academic and cultural activities
to physical and social well being.
His soft spot is his family; Anneke and children Christian (14) and Mia (12). His best known quotes provide
an accurate summary of the man who has been a true pioneer and who has made his mark in a short time
at Midstream College – “Soli Deo Gloria” and “do not forget to do your maths homework!”

Baie van ons inwoners het seker al die pragtige Groenkopeend mannetjie,
wat tans in sy spoggerige broeikleure pronk , op ons dammetjies
by die gholfbaan in Midfields waargeneem. Die kop en nek is ʼn helder
metaalgroen, die bors rooibruin en die snawel oranje geel. Die middelste
swart omgekrulde stertvere is uniek en dit onderskei hom van alle
ander eendspesies . Behalwe die pers spekulum, wat by beide geslagte
voorkom, vertoon die wyfie met haar bruin gevlekte vere en grys-groen
snawel, eerder onopvallend. In sy eklips veredrag, lyk die mannetjie amper
soos die wyfie.
Nadat die mannetjie die broeiplek gekies het, berei die wyfie die nes
voor, meestal in ʼn holte op die grond maar soms ook in struike of boomstompe
of selfs in ou kraaineste. Sy lê 7 tot 12 eiers, wat met uitgeplukte
donsvere beskerm word. Die kuikens lyk soos swartbruin donsballetjies
met geel gesigte en is dadelik gereed vir hulle eerste swemles.
Die Groenkopeend teel maklik en pas by verskillende lewens- en omgewingstoestande
aan. Die eende is omnivore en vreet omtrent alles
wat voorkom en is dag- en nagaktief. Hulle is kultuurvolgers en vestig
hulle graag naby menslike nedersettings. Hierdie eienskappe het die
Groenkopeende een van die belangrikste stamouers van die Europese
huiseend gemaak.
In Figure 1 en 2 word ʼn mannetjie en ʼn wyfie van ʼn opregte Groenkopeend
getoon. In Figure 3, 4 en 5 word die baster Groenkopeende gewys,
wat tans op ons dammetjies by die gholfbaan tuis is. Die wit baster eend
word aan sy oranje snawel uitgeken en is ʼn kruisteling met huiseende.
Die Groenkopeend is in die 1940s van Europa ingevoer en vrygelaat en
het baie gou aangepas en vinnig versprei. In die Suid-Afrika streek, deel
die Groenkopeend hoofsaaklik ʼn nis met ons inheemse Geelbekeend .
Hy is ook die naaste verwante aan hierdie spesie en het gou met hom,
maar soms ook met die Swart- en Kaapse Slopeend, begin kruisteel,
wat vinnig tot verbastering lei. Die basters is vrugbaar en bring nuwe
basters voort, wat uiteindelik die suiwerheid van ons inheemse eende
se geenpoel kan vernietig. So is die Groenkopeende op ons damme ook
al uitgebaster en verskil van
die oorspronklike suiwer Europese
ras.

DIE
GROENKOPEEND
OP ONS DAMME
Alhoewel die verbastering
groot bekommernis vir natuurbewaring
veroorsaak, is
die Groenkopeend in ons
nuwe voëlboeke en literatuur
as ʼn volwaardige nuwe
eendspesie opgeneem.

Boom van die jaar vir 2011 – die Doppruim - Pappea capensis (433)
Die boom se rooi vrug is
’n lekkernytjie vir mense
en ’n groot gunsteling
onder voëls en ander diere.
Die sade lewer ’n puik
olie. Die doppruim is verwant
aan die lietsjie en
is ’n natuurlike keuse om
voëls en ander natuurlewe na ’n tuin
te lok. Dit word maklik gekweek,
hoewel dit in ’n kouer klimaat stadiger
groei.
Die doppruim is ’n langlewende, geharde, immergroen,
klein tot middelslag boom wat 2-8 m hoog
word. Die boom is bestand teen koue én hitte en
kan langdurige droogtes weerstaan. Dit kan orna-
23
menteel of as ’n fokuspunt gebruik word. Dit is ’n
nuttige boom om in strate of vir skaduwee in parkeerterreine
aan te plant, want dit het nie ’n aggressiewe
wortelstelsel nie.
Die blomseisoen is van September tot Mei, terwyl
die vrug van Desember tot Julie voorkom.
Pappea capensis kom wydverspreid in Suider-Afrika
voor, van die Noord-Kaap tot in die droër Karoo,
die Oos-Kaap en KwaZulu-Natal, tot in die noordelike
provinsies en Mosambiek, Zimbabwe en verder
noordwaarts tot in die oostelike en suidelike dele
van tropiese Afrika. Dit kom natuurlik in bosveld,
ruie rivieroewers, beboste grasveld en klipperige
uitsteeksels sowel as in bossieveld voor en groei
dikwels op termiethope.
Tree of the year for 2011 - The amazing Pappea capensis (Jacket Plum)
The leaves of Pappea capensis are browsed by game,
birds, livestock and butterfl ies and there are numerous
medicinal uses for the roots, bark and leaves.
Fruit from the Pappea capensis is fi t for human consumption
and may be used for jam, jelly and vinegar
production. The tree is from the litchi family.
It is an excellent tree for attracting birds as it is popular
with nesting birds (provides a concealed and
sheltered nesting sites), as well as fruit eating and
insect eating birds.
The jacket plum is a frost hardy, evergreen, small
1 - 7 September 2001
to medium tree with a height of 2-8 m. Under ideal
conditions it can grow at a moderate rate but can be
slow-growing under dry and/or cold conditions.
Pappea capensis is indigenous
to and widespread in southern
Africa from the Northern
Cape through the drier Karoo,
Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal,
to the northern provinces,
as well as Mozambique, Zimbabwe
and northwards into
eastern and southern tropical
Africa.
What is in the name? The generic name Pappea is named after a German physician and plant collector
Carl Pappe, while the specifi c name capensis refers to southern Africa. – the generic name for the grass
owl is Tyto capensis also indicating its relationship to southern Africa

Kollekapoen
Tannie Suset Maakal het vir die Graad Rgroep
stories kom lees uit haar pryswenner
Kollekapoen storieboek. Dié boekie, wat op
2 tot 7-jariges gemik is, bevat nege kortverhale
met waterverf illustrasies, wat elk ‘n
storie vertel van haar kleinkinders se interaksie
met die Kollekapoen - ‘n klein dwergmannetjie
wat in Tuinland woon. Die kleuters
het met groot belangstelling geluister en met
baie opwinding daarna na die Kollekapoen in
die skool se tuine gaan soek

Clothes Collection
26
Midstream has once again opened its heart
and collected 1157 bags of clothing for the
underprivileged. It was Mr. Harmse’s wish to
support “Clothing for children” as part of his 50 th
birthday celebration. On his birthday the bags
were placed in the format of a 50. “It is in giving
that we are blessed”.
Midstream College Senior Choir
Since the start of Term 2 of 2011, the choir
has been training under the very competent
hand of Mr Gert Pottas, a B.Mus
student at the University of Pretoria. Using
his vast experience in choral training
and singing, the choir is now reaching the
heights it has strived for. We participated
in the Centurion Cultural Festival and attained
a B+ (75%) certifi cate. For such
a young choir to achieve these results is
indeed a remarkable accomplishment and
we look forward to a steady climb of musical
progress as the choir grows in confi -
dence and excellence.

“Groot-kuier-op-die-kalender”
Krieketseuns gaan GROOT !

die kinders en ‘n watertand skaapbraai vir die ouers.
Midstream College Primêre Skool se krieketspelers bult omtrent spiere
in 2011 ! Vier seuns vorm deel van Distrik, Suid – Wes, se onderskeie

is Merrick Brett en Caskin White wat gekies is vir die 0 / 11- span, Braam
Grobler vir die 0 / 12 -span en Reynhard Grobler vir die 0 / 13- span. Baie
sterkte manne, ons is trots op julle !

die ontspanne atmosfeer. Almal het die
dag lui-lekker deurgebring en kon heeldag

LOCAL IS LEKKER...
We are proud to announce that Greenfi elds Restaurant Midstream will be opening its doors at the local
shopping centre Square@Midstream early in October.
Greenfi elds was established as a francise in the food industry in 1994 and was recently sold to a new
management team - Welma Long and Nico Visser. Greenfi elds Restaurant Midstream will be the fi rst of
the new generation Greenfi elds, with a new exciting menu [with traditional tapas, deliciously prepared
breakfast, lunch- and dinner meals] that offers wholesome food prepared with top quality ingredients and
delectable new food presentation. A full range of alcoholic beverages will be offered as soon as a liquor
license has been approved. The restaurant will also house a small bakery focusing on freshly baked bread
and a petit deli.
The interior design of the restaurant was done with reclaimed scaffolding wood and we believe it to be a fi rst
in South Africa. Some of the items such as the wine racks, tables and butcher blocks will also be available
for sale.
Greenfi elds Midstream will be owned by Julius van der Walt [Snr] and Julius van der Walt [Jnr]. Both of
them are experienced restauranteurs and extremely passionate about food and good client relationships.
You can also look forward to some live music performances from time to time.
We are looking forward to welcome you at Greenfi elds in Midstream!

Midstream College-leerder praat die beste in die land
Ruco Pretorius, ‘n matriekleerder verbonde aan Midstream College, wen op 12 Augustus
die landswye ATKV-redenaarskompetisie. Tydens hierdie geleentheid by ATKV
Goudini Spa stap Ruco met nie minder as drie toekennings weg: hy word as die algehele
wenner in die Hoërskool Senior Afdeling, die beste seunspreker én die spreker
met die beste taalgebruik aangewys.
Ruco het al vier keer vantevore na die ATKV-redenaarsfi naal deurgedring: drie keer
was hy die wenner. In 2005 het hy as die wenner in die Laerskool Seniorafdeling
uit die stryd getree; in 2008 wen hy die Hoërskool Junior Afdeling en vanjaar die
Hoërskool Senior Afdeling. Ruco beoog om volgende jaar B.Com Rekeningkundige
Wetenskap by die Universiteit van Pretoria te studeer.

Happy endings start here....
Spring is here and we can now prepare our summer gardens.
MICRO-CHIPPING. It’s that simple. Pets that are micro chipped can be
re-united with their families promptly. All too often strays are handed
in at Veterinary Clinics by concerned members of the public. Most have
no collars with tags or micro-chips in place. These animals may be kept
for 48 hours by Veterinary Clinics and must then be handed over to the
SPCA. This is a traumatic experience for both the animal and the individual
who has to hand them over.
Inserting the chip is a simple procedure. The Vet inserts the chip, which
is the size of a grain of rice, between the shoulder blades of the animal,
just below the skin. The chip has a code that can then be read by a
hand-held scanner. The code is then looked up on the internet and the
relevant owners details are provided. It’s that simple and really worth
considering.
Contact Petstream for more information on their Micro-chipping special
For your garden plants and trees
• Flower beds will need compost and organic fertilisers like “Bounce Back” or “Rapid Raiser” to
maintain quality soil. Alternatively you can use slow release fertilisers (eg 3:1:5) for fl owering
trees and shrubs.
• Plant seedlings and sow summer fl owering annuals for colour in the garden.
• Treat fruit trees against fruit fl y, codling moth, etc.
• Plant seedlings or sow vegetable seeds for example asparagus, beetroot, brinjals, etc.
For your lawn:
• Established lawns will need approximately 30mm of water every week.
• Watering could also be increased during very hot and windy days.
• Where weeds are a problem it may be best to use an appropriate herbicide which should be
applied before weeds have gone to seed.
• Look out for crickets, harvester termites and lawn caterpillars and treat the lawn for these
insects.
• Use an organic fertiliser like “Blade Runner” every 8 weeks or treat the lawn each 6 to 8 weeks
alternating with slow release 3:2:1 fertiliser and LAN.
33

NO CONSTRUCTION AFTER 15 DECEMBER
No building activity or construction work will be allowed on the estate
after the 15 th of December. Please inform your contractor or builder in
advance of this ruling and request him to do the necessary planning in
this regard.
Driving around Traffi c Circles / Roundabouts
There seems to be some confusion on the estate with regard to the use of traffi c circles. Here is the correct
way of using them. [Information from: www.arrivealive.co.za]. An interactive, descriptive example can also
be viewed on the mentioned
website.
In South Africa we often refer to
roundabouts as “traffi c circles”.
A roundabout is a circular
intersection that reduces
potential confl icts between
vehicles and improves the
effi ciency of the intersection.
The advantages of a
roundabout are:
• Traffi c calming
• Reduction of angle and
head-on crashes
• Reduction of crash
severity
• Aesthetic improvements
Approaching a roundabout:
• Slow down as you approach the intersection - You’re typically not required to stop.
• A roundabout is designed to be driven at low speed.
• As you enter the roundabout, traffi c coming from your right has right of way. This means that traffi c
streaming into the roundabout from the entrance to your right will keep coming as long as no one is
coming from their right.
• These cars may not even slow down as they enter the roundabout, because they have the right of way.
You must stop and wait until there is a break in traffi c. Watch out for other traffi c in the roundabout.
• Watch out for vehicles already on the roundabout; be aware they may not be signaling correctly or
signaling at all.
• Always keep an eye on the vehicle in front as you’re about to emerge. Don’t assume the driver won’t
have to stop while you’re still looking right. Many rear end collisions happen this way. Make sure the
vehicle has actually moved away.
• Keep in mind that buses or large trucks need extra room to make turns and might take up more than
one lane in a traffi c circle.
• Obey all traffi c signs and road markings.
