These buildings are an important indication of our level of civilisation and a convincing proof for a judgmental critical world - that for more than 300 years a structured and proper Western civilisation has flourished and exist here at the southern point of Africa. The visible tracks of our cultural heritage are our historic buildings…they are undoubtedly the deeds to the land we love and which God in his mercy gave to us. 1 2 Fig.1.

  • The Liesbeek River Valley
    \ UNIVERSITY OF CAPE TOWN FACULTY OF EDUCATION THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF THE LIESBEEK RIVER VALLEY An investigation of the use of an Environmental History approach in ·historical research and in classroom practice A dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of M.Ed in History Education \ -...... by JEAN ·BOTIARO MARCH 1996 ' f . , ,:.,- I'.! ' . t. c .-: . 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. Published by the University of Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. This dissertation has two components, one History and one Education, and the central unifying theme is Environmental History. The History component examines the historiography of this sub-discipline, and then applies an environmental analysis as an example of its use in historical research. The second component explores the use of Environmental History in the teaching of school history, and presents a curriculum model which uses this approach. Both components use the Liesbeek River valley in the Cape Peninsula as a case-study. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I need to start off by thanking the person who provided the spark from which this dissertation grew: in June 1994, when I was rather desperately casting about for a research topic which would satisfy both the historical and education components of the course, Howard Phillips of the History Department at UCT mentioned the term "Environmental History".

FSPCF member associations are concerned about the serious problems caused by inaccurate valuations and want to help find a satisfactory way forward. Representatives present were all members of rate payers and other civic organisations in the Far South Peninsula who are members of the FSPCF, which deals with common Far South issues. All FSPCF associations acknowledge the necessity to cross-subsidise poorer areas in the city. This meeting is not to discuss the problems themselves but to identify steps that can be taken to solve them. However, a summary of problems had been prepared by Lesley and Allen as background to this discussion, and a copy had been e-mailed to Cllr Neilson with the request that he respond later in writing to the points raised. Cllr Neilson’s Address: The Cllr said he would like to begin with some general background: Council faced a new set of circumstances with the latest valuation process.
