Die Drakenstein-munisipaliteit in die Wes-Kaap is Saterdag van diskriminasie beskuldig omdat sommige ouers voel die skole-rugbyderby tussen Klein Nederburg Sekondêr en New Orleans Sekondêr is nie so goed by die Faure-stadion bestuur soos die vorige naweek s’n tussen die Hoër Jongenskool Paarl en Paarl Gimnasium nie.

Groot ontevredenheid het Saterdag geheers toe die hekke van die stadion in die Paarl glo nie betyds oopgesluit is nie en die embleme van die vorige twee skole, en dié van hul borge, tussen die wedstryde met kalkverf verwyder moes word.

Maar Carlyn Oppelt, New Orleans Sekondêr se skoolhoof, sê mense op sosiale media was te vinnig om die hele kwessie as ’n rassevoorval uit te beeld.

“Dinge was die hele week onvoorspelbaar met die taxi-staking,” sê sy, en meen daar is baie faktore wat in ag geneem moet word met Saterdag se gebeure.

Oppelt sê die derby tussen hulle en Klein Nederburg is al vir die afgelope sowat 38 jaar ’n groot geleentheid in die Paarl. “Baie tyd en energie word daarin geploeg, so jy wil dit nie net afstel nie. Baie mense het gedink die derby gaan nie gebeur nie.”

Klein Nederburg was vanjaar die organiserende skool. Mary Banda, skoolhoof, wou nie kommentaar lewer nie.

Oppelt meen die hele voorval is tans net ’n vingerwysery.

Omdat daar glo so baie wanbestuur was, het mense geargumenteer dat sommige skole beter as ander in die Drakenstein-munisipaliteit gehanteer word.

“Dit het die mense veral kwaad gemaak dat daar op die veld geverf is terwyl die kinders speel,” sê Oppelt.

Sy sê sport is baie belangrik vir hul kinders en dit is hartseer dat die derby op sosiale media in ’n onsmaaklikheid verander is.

Edgar Petersen, gemeenskapsleier, sê ontstelde ouers het hom Saterdagoggend gebel omdat hulle glo nie die stadion binne kon gaan terwyl wedstryde reeds begin het nie.

Petersen sê die veld is eers “ná klagtes” vol kalk gegooi “in ’n swak poging om die embleme (van die ander skole) op die veld te verdoesel”. Die kalk het glo tot chaos op die rugbyveld gelei, veral as spanne moes skrum, sê Petersen.

Hy meen die kwessies wat kop uitgesteek het, kon vooraf gehanteer word.

Hy beweer ook die uitsaai van sommige netbal- sowel as rugbywedstryde is glo verhoed nadat daar glo kwessies opgeduik het met die uitsaaier se sertifikaat van voldoening.

Die Drakenstein-munisipaliteit sê luidens ’n verklaring wat per navraag aan Netwerk24 gestuur is dat hulle, die polisie en die organiseerders van Klein Nederburg hard gewerk het om te verseker dat Saterdag se wedstryde kon plaasvind.

Teen Vrydag-laatmiddag was daar nog ’n moontlikheid dat die wedstryde nie sou kon plaasvind nie weens “uitstaande aspekte wat nagekom moes word voordat goedkeuring gegee kon word”, lui die verklaring.

“Die munisipaliteit het die organiserende skool met die uitstaande aspekte genader en verskeie toegewings is gemaak. Die organiseerders het saam met die munisipaliteit onderneem om Saterdagoggend alles af te handel.”

Die munisipaliteit het die “onverantwoordelike plasings” op sosiale media veroordeel weens die “spanning wat dit skep deur rassediskriminasie aan te blaas”.

“Die munisipaliteit behandel alle groepe presies dieselfde, en onderskei nie op grond van ras of kleur nie.”

Drakenstein sê hulle het vroeg Saterdag al die nodige sertifikate ontvang – wat nodig is om die veiligheid van leerlinge, spelers, ouers en toeskouers te verseker – en kon toe die groenlig gee vir Saterdagmiddag se hoofwedstryd.

Gerald Esau, Drakenstein se uitvoerende direkteur van gemeenskapsdienste, sê aan Netwerk24 die organiseerders van verlede naweek se wedstryde het ’n verklaring uitgereik aan die munisipaliteit waarin hulle hul verskoning aanbied, asook die situasie verduidelik het.

Een van die voorwaardes vir die goedkeuring van verlede naweek se wedstryde was dat die organiseerders die veld moes groen verf na afloop van die wedstryde.

“Hulle het egter uitdagings gehad om die verf te bekom weens die weeklange taxi-staking. Uiteindelik moes die munisipaliteit ’n haas uit die hoed ruk om die embleme te probeer bedek. Dit was die beste plan op die dag,” sê Esau.

Oor die hekke van die stadion, sê Esau, is die polisie in beheer daarvan en die munisipaliteit moes eers wag op hul instruksies voordat dit oopgemaak kon word.

’n Vergadering word vir die komende week beplan om die aangeleentheid in diepte te bespreek, sê Esau.

The SA Weather Service has issued a warning for Level 4 disruptive rainfall from midnight tonight until late afternoon tomorrow.

These conditions could lead to localized flooding, considering the level of ground saturation from previous rainfall in the last few days.

City Departments are continuing with mopping up operations following the first series of cold fronts earlier this week, including unblocking drains and removing debris.

These departments will be on standby for any further disruptions that may occur from the latest forecast.


Helpful tips on flood preparedness, mitigation and prevention:

• Clearing out drainage systems
• Raising the floor level of a structure so that it is higher than the natural ground level
• Making sandbags
• Digging trenches around the house to divert water away
• Reporting blocked drains, intakes and illegal dumping – illegal dumping in the stormwater canals and sewers makes flooding worse.
• Fix leaking roofs.

Any weather-related emergencies can be directed to the City’s Public Emergency Communication Centre by dialling 021 480 7700 from a cellphone or 107 from a landline.
