In the 2014 academic year, for the
first time in Mitchell’s Plain’s 35-
year history, Spine Road High School
achieved a 100% matric pass rate.
Also, Glendale High School learner
Jayson George matriculated with
eight distinctions as one of the top
20 matriculants in the Western
Cape. Jayson says the Trust was
instrumental in assisting to achieve
his dream of studying Law at UCT:
“I come from an area where some
kids grow up with no sense of hope
for the future. Now the future looks
bright; it looks better than the past.
We no longer have to be hopeless
because the Trust is focussed on
helping us to study further.”
In the 2015 academic year, the
17 Mitchell’s Plain High Schools
had an average matric pass rate of
85% compared to 76% in 2014.
This shows that, in spite of the
considerable odds which learners
from Mitchell’s Plain encounter on
a daily basis - including gang wars,
poverty and high crime levels in their
communities - it is possible to strive
for excellence and achieve success.
The Trust strives to provide these
promising young people, our future
leaders, with the financial support
they need to realise their goals
and dreams through education,
determination and hard work.
Bursary recipients also commit tobeing role models to their peers.
They are required to do a talk at
their school at least once per annum
during their years of study and to
support learners who want to follow
in their footsteps. The Trust also
encourages its recipients to assist in
forming and support alumni societies
at their high schools through which
past learners can plough back into
their schools and communities.
“This Trust can change the lives of
students, showing them and proving
to them, as was the case with myself,
that there are no limits to how far
they can go.” says Abubakr Maker,
currently studying Quantity Surveying
at the Cape Peninsula University of
Technology (CPUT).
All donations to the Mitchell’s
Plain Bursary and Role Model
Trust contributes toward providing
financial support to matriculants
and current students, enabling themto pursue tertiary qualifications and
their desired careers.
Your donation is an ‘investment’
in our country’s future, assisting to
produce educated and productive
citizens, making South Africa a better
country for all.
For information on the Mitchell’s
Plain Bursary and Role Model Trust,

www.mpbursarytrust.org.za
The Mitchell’s Plain Bursary and
Role Model Trust (the Trust) provides
financial support to young people who
want to study at tertiary education
institutions but cannot afford to do
so. The Trust facilitates learners’ access
to further studies through funding
for registration and tuition fees to a
maximum amount set annually by the
Trustees. The Trust works closely with
all 17 high schools in Mitchell’s Plain
to ensure that motivated, academicallyperforming and financially deserving
learners are given an opportunity
to study at university, technikon or
college. Bursary recipients are able
to reapply for support in subsequent
years of study, so as to enable the
successful achievement of their
qualifications.
The Trust was established by Trevor
Manuel in 2010 when, as a Member
of Parliament, he was deployed by the
African National Congress (ANC) to its
Mitchell’s Plain Constituency Office.
The Trust is a South African registered
Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) in
terms of both section 30 and 18A of
the Income Tax Act.
Founding Trustee Trevor Manuel says:
“Without community mobilisation
in support of young people who
show that they have the potential to
succeed, there will be little prospect
of placing education at the centre ofour collective efforts to confront the
scourges of poverty, inequality and
the hold which drugs and gangsterism
have over the lives of so many.”
Since its inception, the Trust has assisted
many young people from Mitchell’s
Plain to study at universities, technikons
and further education colleges. In 2015
alone, the Trust awarded more than R1-
million in bursaries to 82 matriculants
and current students.

as a primary school teacher opened
his eyes to the use of colour, form and

Tyrone Appollis is a South African
artist and poet. He was active in the
formation of the Mitchell’s Plain Art
Group in 1988. He has held numerous
local and international art exhibitions.
A professional artist since the late
1970s, Tyrone Appollis works from the
conviction that “an artist must be of
his time”.
Tyrone Appollis’s art is rooted in his
geographic identity as a Capetonian,in his historic identity as a “coloured”
person, in his post-apartheid national
identity as a South African, in his non-
racial identity as an African, and in his
humanistic identity as a member of a
global community of artists.
Born in Cape Town in 1957, Appollis
studied art part-time at the
Community Arts Project under Cecil
Skotnes and at the Foundation School
of Art in Observatory. In addition to
wide recognition for his visual art, he
is also well known for his abilities as a
poet and musician.
Appollis’s work is represented in
several public and private collections
in South Africa and abroad.

Gregoire Boonzaier was born in
Newlands, Cape Town in 1909. He
was the son of the political cartoonist,
DC Boonzaier, and benefited from the
close contact with his father’s artist
friends, including Pieter Wenning,
Nita Spilhaus and Moses Kottler, the
sculptor. DC Boonzaier was strongly
opposed to formal art training, and
Gregoire’s initial studies were possible
through association with these early
Cape impressionist painters.
In 1923, at the age of 14, his first
two oil paintings were exhibited at
Ashbey’s Gallery in Cape Town - his
first successful one-man exhibition
was held there two years later.
Gregoire went on to hold more
than 100 solo exhibitions during his
extensive career of more than eighty
years. As a founder member of the
New Group with Terence McCaw,
Frieda Lock, Lippy Lipshitz and others,
he was elected its first chairman in
1938. The New Group rendered an
invaluable service to the cause of
South African art for almost 15 years.
Gregoire Boonzaier died on 22 April
2005, a few months before his 96th
birthday, having lived an extraordinary
life and productive career, during
which he was able to serve as a
mentor and teacher to generations of
South African artists and art lovers.

Joyce NtobeLot No 12
Joyce Ntobe was born in 1991 out of
frustration with increasingly prevalent
affirmative action. Beezy Bailey
submitted two artworks for a triennial
exhibition. One was with the traditional
Beezy Bailey signature, which was
rejected and the other signed Joyce
Ntobe. The latter now resides in the
South African National Gallery as part
of its permanent collection. When the
curator of the Gallery wanted to workon a paper about three black women
artists, Joyce Ntobe being one, Bailey
revealed the truth, causing a media
scandal.
Beezy Bailey was born on 21 July
1962, in Johannesburg. He is a South
African artist who works in various
media, including painting, sculpture,
drawing, printmaking and ceramics.
He has been a full-time artist for 30
years, with over 20 one-man shows
in London, Johannesburg and Cape
Town as well as numerous group
shows around the world.
He received a fine art degree from
Byam Shaw School of Art in London
in 1986, after studying life drawing,
printmaking, painting and sculpture.
Gail Catlin is the first, and possibly
the only artist to use liquid crystal as
the principal medium in her art. While
Catlin lived in Arniston, she became
fascinated by the nacreous quality of
sea shells and mother-of-pearl, and
was convinced that a new colour
spectrum needed to be developed to
capture the subtle and ever-changing
shades of nature.
She experimented with clays and
resins and fiberglass, which played
with light, when used in sculptural
form. She made contact with Dr Cyril
Hilsum at General Electric, who had
co-invented the hologram, and was aworld expert on liquid crystal. He first
introduced her to liquid crystal.
Her works have achieved a kind
of metastasis —the ability of the
artwork to escape fixity and to
constantly transform itself like a
kaleidoscope. She is probably also one
of the first artists to venture into the
realm of nanotechnology - the study
and manipulation of materials at the
molecular level.

Dion Cupido won the Truworths
Academy of Visual Arts Award at theArts and Media Access Centre (AMAC)
in 2003. As a teenager from Mitchell’s
Plain, Cupido began creating art as a
means of expressing himself. It was
only when a friend’s younger brother
asked Cupido to help him with a
matric art project, that he realised he
could paint and that he loved it.
Cupido had left school by then and
was doing various casual jobs to help
support the family. He wanted to
have his paintings in galleries. Gerard
Cloete, artist and owner of the Peanut
Gallery encouraged Cupido to create
a body of work. He used inexpensive
industrial ink from his father’s business
to paint with.
Peanut Gallery included Cupido’s
work in a group exhibition where he
sold his first painting in 2000. “It was
like coming home. I realised that this is
what would make me happy to wake
up every morning and I saw it was
worth fighting for.”
His most recent work involves what
he calls ‘African-Pop portraiture’. Five
paintings in the series were on display
in his first solo exhibition, ‘Perceptions
Of Beauty’ , at the Worldart Gallery.
He is a resident at Good Hope Art
Studios and his work is included in
several prestigious collections, including

Frank Ross was born in 1953 in
Wellington. Frank’s approach to
painting is uncomplicated and direct.
In his work, the expressive use of li ne
and strong brushwork, amplify his
experience. “Colour is important to
me. Red symbolises the unhappiness
I associate with the problems with
land.” His paintings incorporate the
people of the Boland: labourers toil
in the vineyards, women carry woodor trudge wearily home after a day’s
work and strong southern sunsets
streak the sky.
Frank has had no formal tuition but has
learnt much by being in the company
of other artists and observing their
work. His work is original as he is
unaware of the traditional conventions
used to portray the human figure and
landscape. His talent was recognised
by the E’ bezweni Art Group in 1996.
Frank has had many group and solo
exhibitions in South Africa and abroad.
He had a solo exhibition in Germany
in 2012 where all his paintings were

Lesley Charnock, teacher, painter of
still lives and portraits, brings oils to
life. Step into her studio and teaching
space at Montebello Design Centre in
Newlands, Cape Town and there is no
doubt that you are in Africa. There is
vibrant colour, bright sunlight, deep
shadows, confident, energetic brush
strokes, luscious palette knife work,
strong tonal values…and, above all,
a love for the diverse people of Africa
and its breath taking beauty.Inspired and stimulated by her many
travels through Africa, Lesley finds
the subjects for her paintings in the
people she sees walking along dusty
country roads, working in the fields or
herding cattle and tending their flocks.
On the streets of the cities she finds
people waiting for taxis and buses,
selling fruit or flowers, or walking and
jogging along a promenade. Whether
it’s a landscape, a seascape or a city
scene, there is rarely a painting by
Lesley without a figure in it.
Then, for a change of pace, you will
find portraits full of life and vigour,
serene flower studies and striking still
life compositions. Her rich, glowing
oils have found their way into both
private and corporate collections
throughout South Africa and around
the world.

2010, he contributed to the exhibition
at the Duotone Gallery at the Cape

His book of jazz photographs, ‘Jazz
Rocks’ , was published in 2010.
James Matthews, the South African
poet and writer, in the foreword to
the book observed that “...Lombard’s
collection of photographs...is an ode
to South Africa’s jazz musicians...
Each and every lovingly taken photo
displays its empathy with the music
and the players.”
Lombard says: “Over the years I
have spent so much time backstage
that the space behind the music is a
part of me. Many of the musicians I
photographed were far more than just
subjects to me. The musicians became
my friends and family. We spent many
hours honing our skills and teaching
each other the politics of the arts.”

Liza Littlewort was born in Cape Town,
and lives and works in the city. She
uses fresh and experimental ways of
working with oil paint on different
surfaces, calling this methodology
“Absurdist” as it creates unexpected,
surreal accidents which Littlewort
uses to express her sense of the
essential absurdity of life. Her sense
of the absurd is informed by ideas
famously explored by Dadaism:
the inherent ridiculousness of neo-
imperialist ideology and its effects of
global devastation, mass poverty and
perpetual war.
Her last solo show “We Live in the
Past” critiqued hegemonic narratives
of whiteness in comtemporary South
Africa. For her forthcoming show
in April 2016, she is focussing on
what critic Brenden Gray describes
as “blind, liberal acceptance of
the transcendental properties and
goodness of art.” She intends for it
to take the form of a kind of magical-
realist satire of ‘cottage mysticism’.

Known for her expanding dimension
and exuberant colourful paintings,
French Corsican artist Catherine
Timotei’s work draws inspiration
from a diverse array of influences
- from Renaissance masters to the
20th Century abstract Expressionism
movement.
Her theory of pure colour echoes the
powerful impressions left by Hans
Hoffmann. Making a painting is
almost a physical struggle and reflects
the artist’s constant search to give
volume presence, between reality
and immateriality and between two-
dimensional extension and three-
dimensional depth. With the moral
impulse of the American expressionistheroes strongly entangled she bridges
the link between European and
American expressionism to develop
her own expressive potential. Her
artwork is full of allusions and
associations that are not easily
deciphered, leaving room for it to take
on a diaphanous form.
Catherine Timotei settled in South
Africa several years ago and lives in
Cape Town.

Cuvée Clive | This extraordinary
bubbly represents the pinnacle of our
Cap Classique craft. Lovers of fine
bubblies produced in the traditional
Méthode Champenoise manner are
familiar with the terms Cuvée Prestige
or Tête de Cuvée. Loosely translated
this means ‘head of the class’. These
precious bottles are nothing less than
the very best of the best. Produced
in limited (exclusive) quantities and
mostly only in truly exceptional
vintage years, Cuvée Clive is crafted in
a brut style, with a minimum amountof sugar added at disgorgement.
This small dosage is possible thanks
to the quality of the grapes selected
and the time spent on the lees, in
our cool cellars. The Chardonnay
contributes elegance and fruit finesse,
while the Pinot Noir provides body,
structure and length of flavour. Cuvée
Clive has undoubtedly achieved the
fundamental prerequisite of that
which defines a prestige cuvée: superb
complexity.
MCC Vintage Range Gift Pack | Thisexclusive limited offer (comprised
of 1 x Brut Zero 2010, 1 x Brut Rosé
2010 and 1 x Blanc de Blancs 2011)
is exquisitely packaged. Each of these
delectable bubblies epitomizes the
Graham Beck commitment to elegance,
sophistication and finesse. This category
of Graham Beck Cap Classiques is an
expression of the very best selection of
Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from that
specific year to authentically reflect the
Vintage portfolio.
