Petronel was 'n ATKV Crescendo wenner wat haar eerste Cd as wenprys
ontvang het. Sy het erkenning ontvang met die bekendstelling van haar
vierde Cd "Vonnie" waarin sy duette saam met Min Shaw sing en onder
andere deur Nico Carstens, Albie Louw en Wouter van de Venter begelei
word.
Sy het spesiale vermelding ontvang omdat sy as jeugdige sanger die mees
ervare kunstenaars en musiekikone in ons land by haar nuutste
Cd-uitreiking betrek het.
Sy is tans een van net vier sangers in Suid-Afrika wat al die oktawe van
'n klavier kan sing.
Petronel was verlede week in 'n motorongeluk, maar was steeds in staat

MAJOR BOOST
FOR HOUSING DELIVERY IN THE NORTH WEST
Housing delivery in the North West will receive a major boost this month
when the National Women Build 2010 is launched on the 30th of July 2010.
As part of the National Women Build programme and to commemorate the
1956 women's march to the Union Buildings, the North West province will
construct 1 956 houses by the end of August. Out of the 1 956 units, the
province will complete the first 54 units at Coligny in Lichtenburg to
mark the 54th anniversary of the Women's Month.
The launch, which will take place at Coligny in the Ditsobotla Local
Municipality, will be attended by North West Premier, Ms Maureen
Modiselle, MEC for Human Settlements, Ms Desbo Mohono, the Mayor of
Ditsobotla Local Municipality, Ms Itumeleng Lethoko and Human
Settlements MECs from other provinces. The National Women's Build
Programme was first launched in 2005 in Gauteng where 25 housing units
were built. In 2006, the department built 50 housing units in
commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of the Women's Month in Orange
Farm also in Gauteng. Since then, the project has been hosted by
different provinces where houses have been built for vulnerable and
marginalised women to commemorate one of the largest demonstrations in
this country's history.
The National Women Build is a Letsema project which seeks to accelerate
housing delivery in the country by annually constructing housing units
for the vulnerable and marginalised women during the Women's Month
(August). In line with the Public Private Partnership (PPP) approach, a
number of financial institutions, construction-related companies and
sector departments have already pledged to play a significant role in
ensuring the success of this year's National Women Build project.
.
National Women Build seeks to commemorate one of the largest
demonstrations in this country's history, where thousands of women
marched to the Union Building in 1956 to protest against the extension
of passes to women by the apartheid regime.
The North West department of Human Settlements is confident that the
programme will help the province to accelerate the pace and quality of
housing delivery through partnerships with stakeholders and by promoting
the spirit of letsema.
The construction of these houses will promote women's access to economic
opportunities within the housing industry, promote the spirit of
volunteerism and further strengthen the Public Private Partnership
programme.
