Kinderhuis
Jaarverslag 2004/5

Voorsitter se verslag 2004/2005
Ons kan terugkyk na 'n besonder geseënde jaar uit die
hand van ons Hemelse Vader met baie suksesse vir ons
kinders, die personeel en ons finansies. Dit was ook
egter 'n jaar van groot selfondersoek: -
• Is die diens van die Kinderhuis relevant vir die
gemeenskappe wat ons dien
• Hoe moet ons kinders versorg wat ernstige
gedrags-en gemoedsprobleme het
• Vordering met ons transformasieproses is stadig en
raak ons vennootskap met die staat.
Twee strategiese beplanningsessies is gehou en die
bestuur, BADISA en die Beheerraad het die bevindinge
deeglik bestudeer en bespreek. Die Beheerraad het
besluit om voort te gaan met struktuurveranderings
van die Kinderhuis deur eerstens deeglike navorsing
en daarna gefasseerde implementering van die
veranderings.
Die nuwe diensleweringsmodel van die Kinderhuis
word soos volg gesien:
• Kinders word na opname deeglik en professioneel
geasesseer oor 'n periode.
• Hierna word die kinders in eenhede op die terrein
vir gedrag- of gemoedsteurings, geplaas.
• Gekeurde kinders word uitgeplaas na sateliethuise
(elk met 10 kinders) in die gemeenskap.
• Gestremde kinders word in die eenheid vir
gestremdes op die terrein gehuisves.
Met die sateliethuise wil ons:
• Kinders wat basiese versorging nodig het,
normaliseer binne die gemeenskap.
• D.m.v. vennootskappe die sateliethuis bestuur met
'n gemeenskapskomitee.
• Die versorging meer bekostigbaar maak, deurdat
die gemeenskap ook finansieel by die sateliethuis
betrokke raak.
1
Navorsing word tans
uitgevoer deur 3
taakkomitees vir
riglyne oor:
• Asesseringsmodel
• Versorgingsmodel
• Behandelingsmodel
Hierdie komitees het
urelange vergaderings,
onderhoude en reise
onderneem en ons bedank die lede vir hulle tyd en
ywer.
Die nuwe diensleweringsmodel moet reeds vanaf
November 2005 in fases begin implementeer word.
Ons het u ondersteuning en gebede baie nodig vir
hierdie proses.
Ons hartlike dank aan ons Beheerraad vir hul
onbaatsugtige diens en ondersteuning aan die
Kinderhuis, deur hul tyd en ervaring te wy aan elke
vergadering. Hul bydra is een van die sterk punte van
die Kinderhuis.
Die Bestuur onder leiding van Annemarie
Bezuidenhout, verdien spesiale melding vir die manier
waarop kommunikasieprobleme met Staatsdepartemente,
personeel en finansiële instellings
hanteer word. Ons is hulle baie dank verskuldig vir hul
toewyding en volharding ten spyte van terugslae,
spanningsvolle uitdagings en min erkenning vir hul
pogings.
Ons bedank ook graag ons lojale donateurs sonder wie
se ondersteuning ons nie kan funksioneer nie. Ons
bedank ook die Ontwikkelingskomitee vir die ywer
waarmee fondse ingesamel word. Met staatsubsidies
wat jaarliks verminder, is hulle ondersteuning
essensieël en word dit hoog op prys gestel.
Ons sien uit om die uitdagings wat voorlê aan te durf in
groot afhanklikheid van ons Hemelse Vader.

Die belangrikheid van
Familie en Vriende
Kinderversorgers is opgelei om
portuurgroepberading te
ontwikkel onder die kinders
My familie maak my gelukkig -
hulle is altyd daar vir my
as ek hulle nodig het.
Soms as ek naweke huis toe gaan,
dan is hulle so bly om
my te sien. Dan gaan ons
Saterdae uit en ek kry te
veel liefde. Hulle beskerm my en
ek hoop ek gaan naby hulle bly
Ek wil praat oor my vriende my vriende is
baie spesiaal want hulle help my om uit
die moeilikheid te bly –
my vriende laat my nie in die steek nie
– Jottie, 15 jr.
sodat hulle kan kom kuier.
– Jamie, 15 jr.
DDaar word gereeld
gesinskonferensies gehou met
die kind en sy gesin om te
besluit oor gereelde besoeke en
wanneer gesinshereniging kan
plaasvind
Ek hou van musiek
en my tannie en oom
(kinderversorgers)
my familie is
belangrikste vir my
– Ryan, 12 jr.

Assessering en Terapie
Kinders word ingeskakel vir terapie by
terapeute of terapeutiese sentrums.
Vrywilligers bied kunsterapie en Diereterapie
aan. Die kinders met ernstige
gestremdhede ontvang arbeidsterapie,
fisioterapie en eko-terapie.
ADie kinders word geasseseer deur maatskaplike
werkers saam met die kind en sy gesin. Die interne
sielkundige, Hoof Verpleegkundige,
Kinderversorger en eksterne rolspelers is deel van
die span. Elke kind het sy eie ontwikkelingsplan wat
gereeld hersien word.
Die Kinderhuis het studente in Kindersorg
en Maatskaplike werk van die Hugenote
Kollege, Universiteit van Stellenbosch en UNISA
asook nagraadse studente in sielkunde wat
inskakel en bydra tot die terapeutiese ontwikkelingsprogram.

kultuur aktiwiteite soos sokker,
karate, stoei en drama word
deur vrywilligers aangebied.
Die afgelope jaar het
die uitlanders my lewe

dat hulle omgee.
Ek is baie dankbaar vir
dit. Wat sou ek sonder
hulle gemaak het
– Roelien, 16 jr.
Vrywilligers word ingedeel by 'n
verskeidenheid projekte nadat hulle 'n

help met vervoer en die versorging van die
erg gestremde kinders.
Ons het ook 'n ooreenkoms met SCAS om in

Ons Visie
Die Kinderhuis wil transformeer om 'n meer
relevante en koste-effektiewe diens te lewer
om die behoeftes in die gemeenskappe aan te spreek.
Die bestuur is in die proses om die Kinderhuis te
verander na:
assesseringseenheid op kampus om kinders te
assesseer en krisis-opnames te hanteer
7 sateliethuise in verskillende gemeenskappe
om kinders so na as moontlik aan hul
gemeenskap van oorsprong te plaas sodat hulle
nie vervreemd raak van hul gesin en vriende nie.
Sodoende kan meer gemeenskappe betrokke
raak en ondersteuning bied
terapeutiese eenheid om kinders met spesiale
behoeftes en versteurings te hanteer binne 'n
terapeutiese milieu.
'n spesialis eenheid om verstandelik erg
gestremde kinders te versorg
Missie
M
In Opdrag van die Groot Kindervriend,
Jesus Christus, stel Durbanville Kinderhuis sorgbehoewende kinders in
staat om deur middel van gespesialiseerde programme en opgeleide en
gemotiveerde personeel, hul potensiaal te bereik.

Our Vision
The Children's Home seeks to transform in
order to render a more relevant and costeffective
service to the communities.
The management is in the process of establishing:
an assessment unit on campus to assess
children and to handle emergency
admissions
7 satellite homes in various communities to
keep children as close to their community of
origin as possible in order to prevent
estrangement from their families and
friends.
a therapeutic unit to accommodate children
with special needs and disorders within a
therapeutic milieu.
a special unit to care for children with serious
mental disabilities.
M
Mission
Commissioned by the Great Children's Friend,
Jesus Christ, the Durbanville Children's Home enables needy children
to reach their full potential by means of specialist programmes
and trained, motivated staff.

Volunteers make a difference
Sports, namely soccer, karate
and wrestling, as well as
cultural activities, are mainly
organised by volunteers.
During the past year the
foreigners (German
volunteers) have changed my
life, just to show that they
care.
I am very grateful for this.
What would I have done
without them
– Roelien, 16 years

After an orientation session and selection
process, volunteers are assigned to various
projects.
The Children's Home also recruits German
volunteers for a period of six months via an
agency. They assist with transportation and
caring for the severe disabled children.
We also have an agreement with SCAS who helps
with night shifts in exchange for accommodation.

Iam the Lord's beloved child
The children at the Children's Home come from the
following church groups:
No church - 33
Dutch Reformed Church - 35
United Reformed Church - 6
Apostolic Faith Mission - 13
Old Apostolic Church - 12
New Apostolic Church - 3
Methodist Church - 5
Baptist Church - 2
Christian Fellowship - 4
Reformed Church - 2
Pentecostal Church - 1
Seventh Day Adventists - 1
People's Church of Africa - 1
New Winds - 1
Roman Catholic Church - 5
Our programme is
based on Christian
faith. The children are
engaged in the activities
of the Durbanville Dutch
Reformed Church.
Other church groups offer
Praise and Worship evenings
for the children. The child
care workers regularly reads
from the Bible and pray with
the children. We respect the
religious orientation of all the
children.
I am a child of the Lord.
I know that He will bless my family.
I know that He loves all of us.
I know that He has a plan for my life.
I am the Lord's most beloved child.
– Monique, 14 years

Assessment and Therapy
The children are assessed by social
workers together with the child and
the family.
The intern psychologist, chief nurse, child
care worker and external role players are
part of the team. Each child has its own
development plan which is reviewed
regularly.
AChildren are sent for therapy as dictated by
individual needs. They are referred to therapists or
therapeutic centres. Volunteers provide art therapy
and animal therapy. Children with serious
disabilities are given physiotherapy, occupational
therapy and eco-therapy.
Students in Child Care and Social Work from
Hugenote College, University of
Stellenbosch and UNISA as well as postgraduate
psychology students are involved with and
contribute to the therapeutic and development
programme.

The importance of
family and friends
Child care workers are trained
to promote peer counselling
among the children
My family makes me happy -
they are always there for me
when I need them.
Sometimes when I go home

Chairman's report 2004/2005
We can look back on a year filled with blessings from
our Lord by way of many successes for our children,
our staff and our finances. It was also a year of much
self-examination:
• Is the service we render to the communities still
relevant
• How should we care for children with serious
behavioural and emotional problems
• Progress in our transformation process is slow and
affects our partnership with the state.
Two strategic planning sessions were held and the
management, BADISA and the Management Board
thoroughly studied and discussed the results. The
Management Board decided to proceed with structural
changes in the Children's Home, firstly by thorough
research and then phased in implementation of the
changes.
The new service model of the Children's Home will be
as follows:
• After admission children are systematically and
professionally assessed over a period of time.
• Then they are placed in units on the grounds for
behavioural or emotional disorder.
• Selected children are placed in satellite homes
(each with 10 children) within the community.
• Disabled children are accommodated in the unit for
the disabled on the grounds.
With the satellite homes we aim to:
• Normalise children in the community that is in need
of basic care.
• Manage the satellite homes with partnerships and a
community committee.
• Achieve more cost-effective care by involving the
community financially in the satellite homes.

Currently 3 committees
are researching
guidelines for:
• Assessment model
• Care model
• Treatment model
These committees have
undertaken long
meetings, interviews
and journeys and we thank the members for their time
and enthusiasm.
The new service model will be implemented in phases
starting November 2005. We need your steadfast
support and prayers for this process.
We thank the members of our Management Board for
their unselfish service and support to our Home in
giving their time and expertise at our meetings. Their
contribution is one of the major strengths of the
Children's Home.
The management team under the leadership of
Annemarie Bezuidenhout deserves special praise for
the way in which they handle communication problems
with State Departments, staff members and financial
institutions. We owe them many thanks for their
dedication and perseverance in the face of setbacks,
stressful challenges and little acknowledgement for
their efforts.
We sincerely thank our loyal donors without whose
support we simply cannot function. We also thank our
Development Committee members for the enthusiastic
way in which they are opening new channels of funding
our Home. With state subsidy becoming smaller every
year, their support is essential and really appreciated.
We are looking forward to meeting the challenges while
depending on the mercy of our Lord.
