As jy al ooit gewonder het hoe skrywers dit regkry om groot liefde, diep geloof en hope drama in een boek te druk sonder dat die hele storie uitmekaar val, is daar goeie nuus. Momentum Aardklop bring vanjaar ’n baie interessante gesprek na die boeke-oase toe. Vier bekende stemme gaan saamstroom om te gesels oor hoe hierdie temas hande vat in die wêreld van fiksie. Cliffordene Norton gaan die vrae vra, en Elize Parker, Sunet du Plessis en Frenette van Wyk gaan die geheime agter die skerms deel. Dit kos jou boonop absoluut niks om te gaan luister nie, want die toegang is heeltemal gratis. Beeld: Webblad - Momentum AardBeeld: Webblad - Momentum Aardklopklop Grootwithaaie en Eilandgeheime Elize Parker skop die oggend af met haar boek, Die eilandbruid se sluier. Die storie klink amper soos ’n episode van 'n National Geographic dokumentêr wat verkeerd geloop het. Die hoofkarakter, Chrisanne, is ’n grootwithaainavorser. Sy weet duidelik baie van die see af, maar haar eie lewe is ’n bietjie van ’n riller. Sy sit met baie skuldgevoelens en trauma uit haar kleintyd op ’n weggesteekte dorp genaamd Albatroshoek. Om alles te kroon, daag daar skielik ’n moordwalvis op wat dinge lekker omkrap. Gelukkig is daar ’n eilandkluisenaar met die naam Ben Benade wat haar help om teen die slegte ouens te baklei wat die seebronne uitbuit. Dit is ’n storie oor die vraag of jy maar net die som van jou pyn is, en of daar dalk ’n groter plan met jou lewe is. Van Hazyview tot in Skotland Vlieg saam met Sunet du Plessis en haar boek, Groete uit Skotland, na Skotland. Die hoofkarakter, Frances, pak haar tasse en vlug van haar hartseer verlede af na die koue Skotse hooglande toe. Sy gaan gee daar skool, drink seker baie tee saam met die gawe plaaslike mense, en ontmoet selfs ’n ryk landheer wat dalk familie is. Intussen, terug in Suid-Afrika, sit haar ouma Martie op ’n plaas naby Hazyview en stoei om alles alleen te bestuur nadat dinge ietwat skeefloop op die grond. Sy stel toe vir Dillon Geduld as plaasbestuurder aan. Gooi nou nog ’n egte Suid-Afrikaanse predikant, Gerbrand, wat ook in Skotland sit en met sy eie pyn worstel, in die mengsel en jy het ’n resep vir groot intrige. Dit wys jou net, selfs tussen die mooiste groen heuwels oorsee loop dinge nie altyd presies uit soos jy dit beplan het nie. Parfuum en Politiek in Galilea Frenette van Wyk vat ons nog verder terug in die tyd met Om weer te dans. Hierdie storie speel af in Galilea, waar Zivah op ’n plaas werk en leer hoe om lekkerruik-olies en parfuum te maak. Sy dra ook swaar aan ’n donker geheim, soos dit maar hoort in ’n goeie roman. Haar groot liefde is niemand anders nie as Barabbas. Ja, dáárdie Barabbas uit die Bybel. Hy is blykbaar baie charismaties en vol avontuur, maar hy is ook heeltemal behep daarmee om die Jode van die Romeine te bevry. Selfs nadat Pontius Pilatus hom vrylaat, is hy steeds vol wraak en haat. Zivah moet maar hoop dat daar op die ou end ’n hoër hand is wat al hierdie gebrokenheid kan gesond maak sodat sy weer die lig kan sien. Die Klein Besonderhede As jy self wil gaan hoor hoe hierdie skrywers die liefde en die gees aanmekaar weef, is hier die nodige inligting vir jou dagboek: Datum: 3 Oktober 2026 Tyd: 09:00 Tydsduur: 45 minute Plek: ATKV-Boeke-oase, The Roots, M C Roodestraat 954, Potchefstroom Toegang: Gratis Dit beloof om ’n lekker, ligte gesprek te wees wat die hele gesin kan geniet. Bring net jou liefde vir goeie stories saam.

The beautiful game has officially arrived at Potchefstroom Central School. On Friday, 8 May 2026, Tiki Taka Sports Academy launched its highly anticipated inaugural school soccer training program on the school’s grounds, marking the official rollout of an exciting new long-term partnership. The academy’s coaching staff and senior players made the trek to the school to lead the opening session, which drew an enthusiastic crowd of learners aged 6 to 15. Breaking traditional barriers, the program saw strong participation across both genders, giving boys and girls equal opportunity to develop their skills on the pitch. Foundations on the Pitch The launch day was designed to give learners a comprehensive introduction to formal football training. Split into relevant age groups, the players rotated through a series of structured modules: Warm-Up Drills: Instilling proper athletic preparation and injury prevention habits from a young age. Passing & Ball Drills: Focusing on first touch, spatial awareness, and technical control. Small-Sided Games: High-energy matches designed to maximize time on the ball and keep the sessions engaging and fun. A Three-Year Vision This introductory session is just the beginning. Tiki Taka Sports Academy has committed to a three-year program with Potchefstroom Central School. Over the next 36 months, the partnership will expand beyond weekly clinics to include talent identification pathways and inter-school fixtures. The academy's curriculum relies on a holistic approach to youth development, focusing on three core pillars: Skills, Discipline, and Teamwork. The program aims to use football as a vehicle to build character, foster collaborative skills, and promote healthy, disciplined lifestyles among the youth. Leadership Perspectives The initiative marks a massive step forward for the school's sporting curriculum, bringing structured football coaching to the student body for the first time. Speaking on the launch, the Chairman of Tiki Taka Sports Academy expressed immense optimism for the road ahead: "We are looking forward to this wonderful initiative with the squad which aligns perfectly with our team's goals and vision, and would like to thank the school for trusting us with the project of introducing the sport of soccer to their school."

Is daar iets besonders in Appel se “Genadewater”? Die geliefde Afrikaanse kunstenaar doen dit wéér met ’n splinternuwe enkelsnit wat nie net lekker op die oor val nie, maar ook ’n diep boodskap van hoop, liefde en genade dra. Image (Voorsien) : Coleske Groep Foto Krediet : Hendri Fourie Ná die sukses van sy vorige kortspeler keer hy terug met ’n liedjie wat beloof om oud én jonk aan die sing te kry met sy aansteeklike melodie en opregte boodskap. “Genadewater” handel oor die onverdiende genade wat God elke dag oor mense se lewens uitstort. Dit is ’n herinnering dat geen fout, geen verlede en geen oordeel van die wêreld groter is as God se liefde nie. “‘Genadewater’ gaan oor die onverdiende genade wat God oor ons lewens uitspoel,” verduidelik Appel. “Dit sê: maak nie saak wat jy verkeerd gedoen het nie, maak nie saak hoe hard die wêreld jou oordeel nie, God het jou lief.” Vir die sanger word dié boodskap die beste weerspieël deur die liefde van ’n ouer vir ’n kind. “Ek verstaan dit soos die liefde van ’n ouer vir ’n kind. Al was ek hoe stout, het my ouers nooit opgehou om my lief te hê nie. En selfs daardie beeld is nog te klein om God se liefde te beskryf.” Met “Genadewater” deel Appel een van sy mees persoonlike en eerlike liedjies tot dusver. Hy beskryf dit as ’n belydenis – ’n manier om eer te bring aan die Vader wat altyd daar is, selfs wanneer mense afdwaal. “Vir my is hierdie liedjie ’n belydenis. Dit is my manier om eer te bring aan die Vader wat steeds my tafel gedek hou, al dwaal ek soms ver van die huis af. Hy is groter as ek. Hy het my meer lief as wat ek Hom ooit kan liefhê. Dit is genade. Dit is ‘Genadewater’.” Appel het dié liedjie self geskryf en sê die inspirasie was eenvoudig, maar kragtig: genade. “Ek het die liedjie self neergepen. Die inspirasie was eenvoudig: genade. Nie as ’n mooi woord nie, maar as iets wat my dra wanneer ek dit nie verdien nie.” Hoewel Appel se musiek oor die jare verskeie temas en klanke verken het, voel hierdie uitreiking vir hom anders. Dit is die eerste keer dat hy ’n liedjie geskryf het sonder om aan ranglyste, gewildheid of mense se opinies te dink. “Dit is die eerste keer wat ek ’n liedjie skryf waar ek myself uit die middel haal. Ek het nie aan ranglyste, gewildheid of opinies gedink nie. Hierdie een is vir die Here. As mense daarby aanklank vind, is ek dankbaar saam met hulle. Maar die hart van die lied bly dieselfde: dit is ’n belydenis.” Hy voeg by dat “Genadewater” nie geskryf is om iets te bewys nie, maar eerder om iets te erken. “My vorige werk is baie uiteenlopend, so dit is moeilik om dit net met een liedjie te vergelyk. Maar hierdie een voel anders omdat ek dit nie geskryf het om iets te bewys nie. Ek het dit geskryf om iets te erken.” Benewens die liedjie self, kan aanhangers ook uitsien na ’n musiekvideo wat volgens Appel iets vars na die Afrikaanse musiekbedryf bring. “Die musiekvideo was vet pret om te maak. Ek dink dit is iets vars vir Afrikaans.” Met sy opregte lirieke, aansteeklike melodie en tydlose boodskap van hoop is “Genadewater” nóg ’n bewys van waarom Appel steeds een van Afrikaans se mees geliefde kunstenaars is. Hierdie is meer as net ’n liedjie – dit is ’n herinnering dat genade altyd groter is as ons tekortkominge.

South Africa’s legendary rock icons, The Staccatos, have officially wrapped up an unforgettable month-long tour of the Western Cape. Running from the 7th of May to the 31st of May, the tour proved exactly why this phenomenal band,originally established in 1961,remains one of the country’s most beloved musical treasures. Image (Facebook) : The Staccatos & Steve Ashley Crisscrossing the province to celebrate an incredible 65 years of making music together, the band left a trail of packed venues, standing ovations, and timeless memories. 15 May: Music Knows No Age Bounds The heart of the tour was rooted in deep community connection. On 15 May, updates highlighted a heartwarming initiative by frontman Steve Ashley and his wife/band manager, Ebeth, who had spent the previous week visiting six retirement villages across the Western Cape. They brought music, memories, laughter, and dancing to countless residents. The pinnacle of these visits unfolded on the evening of 15 May, when Steve sang directly to a 101-year-old fan. Her radiant smile made the evening truly unforgettable, proving to everyone in attendance that music knows absolutely no age bounds. 22 May: The Scenic Journey to Montagu The second leg of the Western Cape tour kicked off with an epic road trip. On 22 May, the band reflected on the previous day's scenic journey, which took them through Goodwood, Bellville, Paarl, Worcester, Robertson, and Ashton, before finally arriving in Montagu. Traveling through the landmark Huguenot and Cogmanskloof tunnels, the band soaked in the spectacular mountain views, setting the stage for a massive weekend of live music. The live performances for the second leg officially commenced on the evening of Friday, 22 May at 19h00, where a captivated crowd gathered at the NG Kerk Montagu for a night that absolutely rocked. 23 May – 24 May: Double Sold-Out Success in Hermanus The momentum grew even stronger as the band moved towards the coast.

Bringing the cinema to life with an electric, timeless energy, the crowd danced, sang along to every word, and ultimately gave the band a powerful, roaring standing ovation to honor their 65th anniversary. 31 May: Grand Finale at Heroes Live The historic tour reached its grand finale on Sunday, 31 May at Heroes Live. Doors opened at 12h00, and the music kicked off at 14h00 as fans flocked to catch the final chords of these South African rock pioneers. By the end of 31 May, the tour concluded on the highest possible note. Reflecting on a month of countless kilometres, packed houses, and new friendships, the band thanked the audiences, venues, and guesthouses that made them feel at home.

'n Gemeenskapsgedrewe fondsinsamelingsveldtog is in Potchefstroom van stapel gestuur om 'n plaaslike gesin te ondersteun wat beduidende mediese uitgawes in die gesig staar vir hul baba, Chandré. Foto: De Leeukuil Mediese Agtergrond en Huidige Toestand Chandré is vroeggebore op 26 weke en het slegs 810 gram geweeg. Sy weeg tans ongeveer 3 kg, het reeds vier maande in die hospitaal deurgebring, en was sedert haar geboorte noch net vir 'n tydperk van agt dae tuis. Volgens inligting wat deur haar familie gedeel is, het die baba ernstige mediese komplikasies opgedoen, insluitend 'n verlies aan visie en moontlike breinskade. Gesondheidsorg- en Finansiële Vereistes Die baba se voortdurende sorg vereis deurlopende mediese toesig, gespesialiseerde toerusting en medikasie. Haar ouers, André en Charné van der Merwe, is tans op soek na finansiële bystand om noodsaaklike hulpbronne te bekom wat nie deur hul mediese fonds gedek word nie. Hierdie vereistes sluit in: Gespesialiseerde Mediese Toerusting: 'n Tuis-suurstofmasjien en 'n apnee-moniteringsmatras. Chroniese Medikasie: Spesifieke noodsaaklike behandelings, waarvan een 'n kleinhandelkos van R12 000 per 30 ml-volume beloop. Betrokkenheid van Plaaslike Besighede Plaaslike ondernemings, insluitend De Leeukuil (Potch Dorp Rugby Pub) en Zig Zag Sports Bar, het die fondsinsameling begin deur elkeen R1 000 by te dra. Hierdie besighede het 'n openbare beroep op die breër Potchefstroomse publiek en sakegemeenskap gedoen om aan die finansiële verligtingspoging deel te neem ten einde die baba se langtermynbehandeling te help verseker. #Potchefstroom #PotchKomOnsHelp #PotchGemeenskap #OndersteunPlaaslik

Ná twee suksesvolle samewerkings wat haar aan die Afrikaanse musiekbedryf bekend gestel het, is die talentvolle sangeres en liedjieskrywer Bella uiteindelik gereed om haar eie storie te vertel. Image (Voorsien) : Coleske Groep Foto Krediet : Hendri Fourie Met die vrystelling van haar eerste solo-Afrikaanse enkelsnit, “Mis Jy My Al”, gee sy luisteraars ’n eerlike blik op die emosies van verlange, herinneringe en onbeantwoorde vrae. Musiekliefhebbers het Bella verlede jaar leer ken toe sy saam met Chris Steyn die treffende duet “Winter In Die Kaap” uitgereik het. Sy het daarna nóg harte gewen met haar weergawe van “Travelin’ Soldier”, wat sy saam met haar pa, Arnold Coleske, opgeneem het. Nou tree Bella vol selfvertroue na vore met ’n liedjie wat sy beskryf as een van haar mees persoonlike vrystellings tot dusver. “’Mis Jy My Al’ gaan oor iemand wat vir ’n kort tydjie deel van jou lewe was, maar steeds ’n groot indruk op jou gemaak het. Dis daai gevoel wanneer iemand aanbeweeg het, maar jy sit nog met die herinneringe en wonder of hulle ooit terugdink aan jou. Die liedjie vra eintlik net daai eenvoudige vraag wat baie mense al gewonder het: mis jy my al?” vertel Bella. Volgens haar het die inspirasie vir die liedjie uit ’n universele emosie ontstaan waarmee byna almal kan vereenselwig. “Ek dink die inspirasie het uit daai universele gevoel van verlange gekom. Almal het al iemand gehad wat hulle gemis het of gewonder het wat kon gewees het. Ek wou iets skryf wat eerlik voel en waarmee mense kan identifiseer. Partykeer is dit nie eens oor een spesifieke persoon nie, maar eerder oor die emosie wat daarmee saamkom.” Met die vrystelling hoop Bella dat luisteraars hul eie verhale in die lirieke sal ontdek. “As iemand die liedjie luister en voel soos: ‘Sjoe, ek weet presies hoe dit voel,’ dan het die liedjie sy werk gedoen. Ek hoop dit laat mense nostalgies voel, maar ook herinner dat ons almal soms deur dieselfde dinge gaan.” Vir Bella is die vrystelling van haar eerste solo-enkelsnit ’n besonder betekenisvolle mylpaal. “Dis vir my so lekker om dit uiteindelik te kan deel. Ek het lank gewag vir die regte liedjie om as my eerste solo-enkelsnit uit te bring, so dit voel baie spesiaal. Ek is baie opgewonde dat mense bietjie meer van my hart en van ‘Bella’ kan hoor.” Die enkelsnit word vergesel deur ’n pragtige musiekvideo wat in Stellenbosch verfilm is deur Elias, dieselfde videograaf wat ook verantwoordelik was vir die gewilde musiekvideo van “Winter In Die Kaap”. “Ek wou hê dit moes dieselfde sagte, nostalgiese gevoel hê as die liedjie. Ons het gefokus op mooi, eenvoudige oomblikke en natuurlike tonele wat die storie ondersteun sonder om dit te ingewikkeld te maak. Ek dink die video vang die emosie van die liedjie baie mooi vas.” Kykers sal ook die bekende smaakmaker Buksem saam met Bella in die musiekvideo sien. “Buks is eintlik een van my goeie vriende en is self in die vermaaklikheidsbedryf, so hy is baie gemaklik voor die kamera. Toe ons die video beplan het, het dit net sin gemaak om hom te vra om deel daarvan te wees. Ek dink ons het eintlik meer gelag as gewerk, so dit het die hele proses baie lekker en gemaklik gemaak.” Met “Mis Jy My Al” bewys Bella dat sy veel meer as net ’n nuwe stem op die toneel is. Sy is ’n kunstenaar met die vermoë om diep emosies in musiek te omskep – en hierdie debuut dui daarop dat daar nog baie mooi stories uit haar pen en hart gaan vloei.

Die rugbystewels gaan omtrent warm geknoop word by Volkies Potch, want die skool se trotse tradisie van provinsiale rugbyverteenwoordiging het pas nog ’n stewige hupstoot gekry. Foto: Volkies Potch Die skoolgemeenskap het met groot opgewondenheid aangekondig dat Kyle Hattingh amptelik opgetrek is na die Luiperds o.17-span wat aan vanjaar se gesogte Rhino-week gaan deelneem. Hierdie nasionale jeugweek is een van die belangrikste rooi-letter-geleenthede op die Suid-Afrikaanse skolerugbykalender vir hierdie ouderdomsgroep. Dit bied aan die land se opkomende talent die ideale platform om hul staal teen die heel beste provinsiale spanne te wys. Vir Kyle is hierdie keuring nie net ’n reuse-persoonlike mylpaal nie, maar ook die vrug van maande se onblusbare gees en intense voorbereiding op die oefenvelde. Die Betekenis van Ware Toewyding Om op provinsiale vlak raakgesien en opgetrek te word, gebeur nooit per ongeluk nie. Dit is ’n proses wat ure se harde werk agter die skerms vereis, van vroeë oggendsessies in die gimnasium tot taktiese dissipline tydens strawwe wedstryde. Volkies Potch het in hul amptelike nabetragting juis hierdie eienskap uitgelig en gesê dat Kyle "wys wat toewyding beteken!". Sy deursettingsvermoë en passie vir die spel het hom deur die strawwe proewe gedra en die keurders oortuig dat hy die nodige X-faktor besit om die Luiperds-trui met eer te dra. Om op die o.17-vlak aan die Rhino-week deel te neem, plaas ’n speler reg in die visier van nasionale akademiekeurders, wat beteken dat hierdie toernooi ’n deurslaggewende stap vir sy toekomstige rugbyloopbaan kan wees. Skoolgemeenskap Staan Bankvas Agter Hul Speler Die aankondiging het dadelik ’n golf van trots deur die gange van Volkies Potch laat spoel. Die skool het onomwonde verklaar: "ons is ongelooflik trots op jou!". Hierdie prestasie dien ook as ’n groot inspirasie vir die res van die skool se rugbystelsel en wys vir die jonger spelers dat harde werk en lojaliteit aan jou drome uiteindelik beloon word. Terwyl Kyle nou besig is met die finale afronding en voorbereidingsessies saam met sy nuwe provinsiale spanmaats, stuur die hele Potchefstroom-gemeenskap en Volkies-ondersteuners vir hom tonne geesdrif toe. Almal hou die telborde noukeurig dop en wag in spanning om te sien hoe hy sy merk op die nasionale verhoog gaan laat. Met die hele skool wat bankvas agter hom staan, is daar geen twyfel dat hy sy skool se naam hoog sal hou nie. #VolkiesPotch #VolkiesRugby #LuiperdsRugby #RhinoWeek #Skolerugby #Toewyding #KyleHattingh #TrotsVolkies

Klerksdorp Hoërskool (KHS) het teruggekyk op ’n besonderse dag van skolerugby, uitstaande sportmangees en onmiskenbare skooltrots ná hul kragmeting teen Hoërskool Wesvalia op Saterdag, 13 Junie 2026. Foto: Klerksdorp Hoërskool Die omgegewing het weereens gesien waarvoor die "Blou Golf" van KHS staan danksy die massiewe ondersteuning van ouers, leerders en lojale ondersteuners wat die dag gedeel het. KHS het ook hul opregte gelukwensing aan Wesvalia oorgedra vir hul prestasies op die veld en die skool bedank vir ’n uitstekend georganiseerde sportdag. Naelskoon-Stryd vir die Eerste Span Die hoofwedstryd van die dag het alle verwagtinge oortref as ’n ware naelbytstryd wat ondersteuners tot die heel laaste sekonde in suspense gehou het. Die 1ste span van KHS het uiteindelik baie skraal met 23–22 die knie gebuig teen ’n strawwe Wesvalia-span. Hoewel die uitslae oor die algemeen nie in alle ouderdomsgroepe in KHS se guns geval het nie, het die skoolbestuur hul uiterste trots uitgespreek teenoor elke span en afrigter. Die spelers is geprys vir hul intense harde werk, toewyding, deursettingsvermoë en die feit dat elke seun sy hart op die veld uitgespeel het. 'n Oomblik van Gedeelde Waardes Buiten die intense fisieke stryd en die punte op die telbord, was die absolute hoogtepunt van die dag ’n kragtige oomblik van samehorigheid na die eindfluitjie. Spelers van albei skole het saam op hul knieë gegaan om dankie te sê. KHS het uitgewys dat hierdie pragtige oomblik ’n blywende herinnering is van die ware gees van skolesport—hoe dit mense bymekaar bring deur ’n gedeelde liefde vir die spel, wedersydse respek en universele waardes wat die grense van kompetisie oorskry. #KHS #BlouGolf #KHSrugby #Wesvalia #Skolerugby #Sportmangees #GedeeldeWaardes

In a time when artificial intelligence is rapidly changing how people create, communicate and connect, South African artist Stephen Gawking is releasing a song that asks a deceptively simple question: what is it that makes creativity truly human? Image(Provided) : Devographic Music The answer lies at the heart of 'Manna', his new single featuring acclaimed vocalist Eva Morgan and celebrated rock performer Mark Haze, available on all platforms from Friday 19 June. Known as The Nuclear Lyricist, Stephen Gawking has built a growing reputation for creating music that combines meaningful storytelling with messages of resilience, hope and perseverance. Living with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2, he has transformed personal adversity into artistic purpose, using music to encourage people facing challenges of their own and reminding listeners that limitations do not define potential. With 'Manna', Stephen delivers one of his most thought-provoking releases to date. Wrapped in cinematic pop production and powerful vocal performances, the song explores authenticity, inspiration and the search for meaning in a world increasingly shaped by technology. While acknowledging the growing influence of AI on creativity, 'Manna' ultimately argues that the most powerful art is still born from human experience, from love and loss, faith and doubt, struggle and triumph. "'Manna' is a reflective pop song about searching for light in uncertain times," says Stephen. "While acknowledging the rise of AI and its influence on art, the song affirms that technology can be embraced without replacing what makes creativity truly powerful, the human soul behind it." The title itself draws on the biblical concept of manna, a source of nourishment that arrived when it was needed most. Within the song, it becomes a symbol for inspiration, purpose and those moments of clarity that sustain us through life's uncertainties. To bring that vision to life, Stephen assembled two artists whose own careers have been built on authenticity and emotional connection. Mark Haze, widely respected for his dynamic live performances and distinctive blend of rock, soul and blues, became involved in the project through an unexpected series of events during the recording process. What began as a practical collaboration quickly evolved into a creative one as he connected deeply with the song's message. "The song speaks about searching and finding one's way back to centre to fill a void," says Mark. "It is about finding that manna which nourishes the soul. In a world where everyone is constantly searching for the next thing, we often forget to appreciate the blessings already in front of us." Eva Morgan, one of South Africa's most versatile and accomplished vocalists, brings warmth, elegance and emotional depth to the track. Following her previous collaboration with Stephen on 'Bubblegum Milkshake', she once again demonstrates the vocal sensitivity and artistry that have made her a respected presence on stages across South Africa and beyond. "I loved working on this song," says Eva. "I had space to showcase my true vocal passion with an incredible melody and beautiful lyrics." Together, the three artists create a song that feels both timely and timeless. Produced by Bobby Johnson and co-produced by Stephen Gawking, 'Manna' balances polished modern production with genuine emotional storytelling, resulting in a track that invites listeners to reflect on what truly matters. More than a song about technology, 'Manna' is a song about people. It is about creativity, gratitude, faith, connection and the enduring power of the human spirit. In a world increasingly fascinated by what machines can do, Stephen Gawking, Mark Haze and Eva Morgan offer a reminder of what makes us human. 'Manna' by Stephen Gawking featuring Mark Haze and Eva Morgan is available from Friday 19 June on all platforms.

The City of Matlosana Local Municipality has experienced a dynamic and productive week, balancing critical infrastructure repairs with important civic and community celebrations. From honoring the historical significance of South Africa's youth to tackling localized power challenges and revitalizing central transit routes, the local government has actively engaged with various facets of municipal management. This comprehensive review highlights the major developments and official updates issued by the municipality from June 12 to June 18, 2026. Image: City of Matlosana Executive Mayor Issuing Path Forward for Youth Month 2026 On Friday, June 12, 2026, the Executive Mayor of the City of Matlosana, Cllr Fikile Mahlophe, shared an official Youth Month message with the community. As visible in image_563a7b.jpg, the mayor noted that June 16, 2026, marks the 50th anniversary of the 1976 Soweto Uprising, making the 2026 National Youth Month and Youth Day commemoration particularly notable under the theme "RESET@50 - The Future Calls." Mayor Mahlophe used the occasion to reflect on the historical courage of previous generations while underscoring the ongoing significance of education, civic engagement, and social change. In his statement, he appealed to the local youth to champion strong values, participate in building an inclusive economy, and remain rooted in principles that uplift the community. Furthermore, the Executive Mayor urged young citizens to utilize the weekend of June 20–21, 2026, to register for the upcoming local government elections, enabling them to actively influence governance and shape their own futures. Teams Deployed to Rectify Meiringspark Power Disruptions Infrastructure stability remained a key focus over the weekend. On Saturday, June 13, 2026, the City of Matlosana Communications Unit announced that technical teams were actively deployed to Meiringspark. The municipality reported that personnel were conducting essential network joint repairs to resolve a power outage affecting various sections, explicitly highlighting 4 Verde Street. Officials apologized for the disruptions and assured residents that electrical supply would be reinstated immediately upon the safe completion of the technical operations. Image: City of Matlosana Overloaded Grid Triggers Transformer Overhaul in Jouberton The municipal electrical grid faced significant strain at the start of the week. On Monday, June 15, 2026, the Electrical Department confirmed that a transformer had blasted in Jouberton Extension 11 during the morning hours, resulting in subsequent blackouts across both Extension 10 and Extension 11. According to municipal authorities, the root cause of the failure was severe overloading on electrical breakers and transformers, driven by unusually high winter power demands during cold weather conditions. In response, the City issued an advisory to residents in Alabama, Jouberton, and Manzilpark, requesting temporary energy conservation during peak hours from 05:00 to 08:00 and 17:00 to 20:30. The municipality highlighted several practices compounding grid stress, including: Excessive usage of geysers. Leaving lights and plugs powered on unnecessarily for prolonged durations. Utilizing electric cooking stoves as alternative space heaters. Incidents of electricity theft and illegal bridging of infrastructure cables. Repair crews were dispatched to the site to safely replace or repair the damaged infrastructure. Speaker of Council Hosts Youth Day Dialogues in Kanana On Tuesday, June 16, 2026, the Office of the Speaker of Council, led by Cllr Stella Mondlane-Ngwenya, marked Youth Day with an extensive community program at the Tlokwe Cultural Centre in Kanana. The event drew active participation from learners across multiple regional schools, including Kanana Secondary, Tshedimosetso Secondary, Thuto Tsebo Secondary, Matlhaleng Secondary, and Mmokeng Secondary. The youth engaged in structured debates, poetry recitations, singing, rap performances, and interactive dialogues focused on contemporary issues. In her keynote address, Cllr Mondlane-Ngwenya emphasized economic empowerment and local entrepreneurship, stressing the importance of backing micro-enterprises like catering businesses and car washes to create sustainable youth employment. She urged the attendees to act as leaders and drivers of positive change within their respective neighborhoods. The day concluded with the presentation of trophies and medals to top-performing students. Image: City of Matlosana "Love Your Street" Campaign Transforms Voortrekker Road By Thursday, June 18, 2026, municipal operations shifted focus toward urban renewal and environmental aesthetics. Under the guidance of the Community Services directorate, the municipality advanced its ongoing "Love Your Street" campaign within the Klerksdorp central business district (CBD). The current phase of the initiative centers on the Voortrekker Road Landscaping Project. Conceived as a strategic beautification effort, the project aims to upgrade one of Matlosana’s primary transit corridors and entry gateways. Local authorities stated that the project's ultimate goal is to establish a clean, well-maintained urban environment that fosters civic pride among both residents and visitors. Motorists traversing the CBD have been advised to exercise increased caution, remain alert within construction zones, and adhere strictly to temporary traffic signs while work continues. Image: City of Matlosana Final Note Through proactive maintenance, structural urban planning, and dedicated civic platforms, the City of Matlosana Local Municipality continues to address both its immediate infrastructural challenges and long-term socio-economic mandates. The events of this week underscore the local government's multifaceted approach to maintaining operational functionality while fostering a deeply engaged and culturally enriched community. #MatlosanaMunicipality #YouthMonth2026 #InfrastructureUpdate 🔌🌳🗣️
