The days of doing business as usual are over. With renewed vigour and resolve we must perform our public service in an unusual business model. At the recent Virtual Education Lekgotla, His Excellency, President Cyril Ramaphosa emphasised the importance of the Lekgotla’s theme – 'Equipping learners with the Knowledge and skills for the changing World.' 2 In his opening address at the three-day lekgotla last month, the President called on the sector to teach our learners subjects and content that will equip them to fit the changing profile of their future careers and employable skills. The President directed us to radically change our focus towards the 4th Industrial Revolutions and embrace efforts to bring new learning areas such as Robotics and Coding in the foundation phase. We must teach skills that will enable economic growth and ensure that young people read with meaning by their 10th birthday. The 2021 schooling kicked-off in earnest on 15 February. The take-off has been hitch- free from every indication - thanks to significant commitment and innovations undertaken by our industrious principals, teachers, parents, provincial and district officials.

  • History of the Overberg and Southern Cape Forests (Pre-Modern History to 1795)
    History of the Overberg and southern Cape Forests (pre-modern history to 1795) By Ryno Joubert Email: [email protected] (2019) 1 Pre-modern history The Outeniqua region was inhabited by the Khoi (Hottentots) and San (Bushmen), collectively known as Khoisan, who lived off the land for thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans. The San were semi-nomadic hunter-gatherers. They occasionally visited the forests, but did not dwell in or exploit them. Groups of San hunters occasionally smoked animals out of the forests during hunts, and this could have been the cause of some forest fires in the past which possibly contributed to the fragmentation of the forests. The Khoi people were pastoralists and frequently burned the veld to obtain grazing for their cattle. The coastal plains and forests teemed with wildlife, including large numbers of elephants and buffalo. Khoisan hunters had a small impact on the wildlife due to their small numbers and primitive weapons. When the Europeans arrived, the clans gradually disintegrated, and ended up in the employment of farmers. The densely forested Tsitsikamma region further to the east remained sparsely inhabited until the late nineteenth century. A thinly scattered Khoi population known as Strandlopers (Beachcombers) lived in caves along the rugged coast (Van der Merwe, 2002). 1630-1795 The first known Europeans to inhabit the area were a group of Portuguese seamen that were stranded in Plettenberg Bay (then known as Bahia Formosa) when their ship the Sao Goncalo was wrecked in 1630. The survivors lived in the Piesang Valley for 8 months, and were the first Europeans on record to cut wood from the southern Cape forests.

Research into the Origin and Spread of Wool Production between the Near East and Central Europe The objective of the research group Textile Revolution is to contribute to research on the still largely unclear introduction of wool production in later Neolithic and Chalcolithic societies from Western Asia to Central Europe. Since direct evidence of wool depends on rare conditions of preservation,a multi-proxy approach based on different kinds of indirect evidence was chosen. The previous history of research on early wool production as well as the domestication history of sheep are reviewed briefly. Anthropogenic impacts on the landscape, possibly related to intensified grazing, are one kind of indirect evidence that we take into account. For the later part of the presumably long-lasting development of wool production, written sources are available, the earliest of which date to the Late Uruk and Jemdet Nasr periods (end of the 4th to beginning of the 3rd millennium BCE) in Mesopotamia.

Steltzner The copyright of this thesis vests in the author. No quotation from it or information derived from it is to be published without full acknowledgement of the source. The thesis is to be used for private study or non-commercial research purposes only. Abstract This thesis explores and traces the history of the clarinet in South Africa. After discussing the problems of researching western European music history in South Africa from the arrival of the Dutch in 1652, and briefly summarising that music history up to the first clarinet reference, the thesis goes through the existing clarinet references. These have been sourced from travellers’ journals, newspapers, military histories, other theses, etc., with particular emphasis on the 19th century, since the clarinet was introduced to South Africa near the beginning of it, and the most unknown part of the clarinet’s South African history is within it.
