Umtamvuna Views: Take advantage of heavenly rainwater
Ugu has ‘broken down’ again and predict water outages for the whole week, or longer.
The rains have arrived at last. A wonderful light rain has fallen almost continually since Saturday and the weather forecast looks very wet for the next week. Those who don’t have water tanks, make sure you put out every receptacle you own to catch the heaven-sent water.

Ugu has ‘broken down’ again and predict water outages for the whole week, or longer. And there might be load-shedding as well – It’s a sorry state of affairs for our region.
Kind gesture
Lively young minds at Zizimelo Nombuso nursery school were inspired with dreams of becoming astronauts after a mural of the galaxy was created by gifted local artists Anita Dumas and Sean Winstanley. The two creatives from The Blank Canvas Artist’s Guild responded to principal Muriel Ngcungama’s appeal to beautify the school.
New paint on the jungle gym and window frames, as well as a cycle track for the children, are also new additions donated by a few generous community members. Local members of SAPS’ Crime Prevention Unit have undertaken to help educate the young ones about safety and security this term. For more information, contact Annelize Slabbert at 084 6717694.
Fond farewell
Estelle Carter of Trafalgar has relocated to Pretoria to live closer to her children. Estelle’s husband Mike died unexpectedly a few years ago. Both were very active members of Port Edward Bowling Club. A group of her friends arranged a farewell tea party at a local coffee shop last Friday.
They had a fun time and Estelle commented that she will take away very fond memories of her South Coast friends.
There will be an all day market at Cascade Estates (on Old Pont Road) on November 30. Stalls, kids activities, food stalls and more. Bring the family and have a grand day. For more information, please contact Jolene at 079 0594648.
Matric pupils are in the middle of writing final exams and are wished the best success. The job market is difficult so good luck to our next working generation.
All news to Philippa.
