Under new leadership, Kanu Wines have<br />

entered a new era of winemaking. While<br />

this naturally comes with plenty of change,<br />

our owners are committed to one very<br />

important value that has always stood<br />

the test of time at Kanu: every bountiful<br />

harvest will be utilised in such a way that it<br />

delivers amazing flavours and aromas that<br />

are true to the area of Stellenbosch and the<br />

wonderful Polkadraai Hills.<br />

Since 1692, the soil on which Kanu stands<br />

has produced some of the finest wine in<br />

the area and we look forward to continuing<br />

the legacy of this renowned area.<br />

The name Kanu is from a legend told by<br />

an old Xhosa man who was raised in his<br />

grandmother’s house on the soil of the<br />

farm that is located in the Polkadraai Hills<br />

of Stellenbosch.<br />

Every day, he would tell stories of the<br />

mythical bird he had seen flying over<br />

the farm. According to him, if the bird’s<br />

shadow touches your crop, you are<br />

promised a bountiful year’s harvest.<br />

And, with the Kanu name, comes the<br />

Kanu promise: that each wine made by<br />

Kanu, no matter the price point, is made<br />

in such a way that it will always deliver on<br />

quality and flavour.<br />

CAMPING IN SOUTH AFRICA<br />

HAS NEVER BEEN MORE EXCITING<br />

Camping in South Africa has been a South<br />

African summer mainstay for ages. And with<br />

people looking to connect with nature and<br />

take some Insta-worthy snaps, camping is<br />

the best option.<br />

South Africans have been using this pastime<br />

to explore the country, gain new and different<br />

experiences, and enjoy themselves and<br />

relax. But don’t just think cold mornings<br />

with potjies on the fire and lazy afternoons<br />

under the sun. Camping in South Africa<br />

has evolved, with music and arts festivals<br />

incorporating the tradition into their events,<br />

and businesses catering for luxury camping<br />

in the wildnerness.<br />

Here are a few affordable camping ideas<br />

that can be tailored for your pocket.<br />

Camping Khapela<br />

If you prefer camping with convenience,<br />

Camping Khapela offers a full-service<br />

camping experience with tents, inflatable<br />

beds, dinner, lunch, breakfast, security and<br />

campsite maintenance. Born from the idea<br />

that not many middle and upper-middle<br />

class black people camp in South Africa, its<br />

founder, Karabo Sepharatla, built a package<br />

around his love for people, camping, travel<br />

and South Africa.<br />

Claiming to offer the ultimate in camping<br />

experiences, the Soweto-based company<br />

helps with hiking, music festivals, and private<br />

and public getaways. Travelling is easy,<br />

accessible, affordable and doable. It’s your<br />

country enjoy it!<br />

Camping Khapela makes camping accessible<br />

and provides South Africans the opportunity<br />

to experience the country’s out-of-thisworld<br />

holiday destinations with family and<br />

friends. All you really need to do is just turn<br />

up. The tents and potjiekos will be set up<br />

when you arrive. If you want to find out<br />

more information about Camping Khapela,<br />

feel free to visit their website on<br />

www.campingkhapela.com<br />

Rocking the Daisies<br />

For its fourteenth year running, Rocking<br />

the Daisies is bringing together the best of<br />

international and local musical talent. But<br />

this year’s line-up promises to be something<br />

special with UK pop sensation The 1975, US<br />

rapper Russ, and Australian one-person band<br />

Tash Sultana, looking to rock the Western<br />

Cape from 4-6 October.<br />

The camping facilities have never been better<br />

and if you’re planning to camp you will need<br />

to buy a camping pass. Camping passes will<br />

be available to festival ticket holders only.<br />

Once you have bought your festival ticket<br />

you will be able to book your camping pass.<br />

With three campsites – general camping,<br />

priority camping and the ladies camping –<br />

prices range from R225 to R525. Organisers<br />

encourage concertgoers to get their camp<br />

passes early; the sooner you get it, the closer<br />

you will be to the festival entrance and<br />

main arena.<br />

www.shotleft.co.za


If you want to camp without the fuss,<br />

Daisyland is the event’s luxury tented<br />

accommodation, with tents already set up<br />

for two people when you arrive at the event.<br />

No matter where you travel from, drive<br />

down to Rocking the Daisies, and make it an<br />

unforgettable road trip. For more information,<br />

visit rockingthedaisies.com.<br />

AfrikaBurn<br />

If you wish to plan way in advance, why<br />

not take a trip to next year’s AfrikaBurn.<br />

For one week each year, the savannah of the<br />

Karoo is turned into Tankwa Town, a vibrant<br />

temporary hub of creativity, where thousands<br />

of South Africans gather for AfrikaBurn.<br />

Participants are encouraged to create camps,<br />

themed to your choice. “Your camp can<br />

be tiny, it can be enough for two or three<br />

guests at a time, or a dozen, or it could go<br />

full massive and be large enough to handle<br />

hundreds of people – no matter the size it’s<br />

all welcome, and we suggest you try and<br />

tackle a camp that suits your crew size, and<br />

your resources,” say organisers.<br />

But AfrikaBurn doesn’t give you the licence<br />

to laze about in the sun. Every person who<br />

attends the event needs to create something.<br />

Anything. Unbound creativity, and clean up<br />

before you leave, are the only rules of the<br />

festival. It is a great way to get outdoors –<br />

experience the Karoo – while gaining new<br />

perspectives.<br />

Based on The Burning Man festival held<br />

in Nevada in the US, AfrikaBurn grew<br />

out of a loose grouping of individuals<br />

and organisations who questioned, and<br />

continue to question mainstream, highly<br />

commercialised society and what it does<br />

to the notion and workings of community.<br />

In a nutshell, it’s about radical selfexpression<br />

and it acts as a collaborative<br />

catalyst for change. Find out more at<br />

www.afrikaburn.com<br />

Check out www.shotleft.co.za for some<br />

great deals on your next Sho’t Left.<br />

It’s your country enjoy it. Nothing is<br />

more fun than a Sho’t Left.

The World Heritage Committee, meeting in Manama under<br />

the chair of Shaikha Haya Bint Rashed al-Khalifa of Bahrain,<br />

inscribed the Barberton Makhonjwa Mountainlans as a World<br />

Heritage site on July 2, 2018.<br />

The Barberton Makhonjwa Mountainlans is situated in<br />

Mpumalanga Province which is in the north-eastern part<br />

of South Africa. The site comprises 40% of the Barberton<br />

Greenstone Belt, one of the world’s oldest geological structures.<br />

It represents the best-preserved succession of volcanic and<br />

sedimentary rock dating back 3.6 to 3.25 billion years, when<br />

the first continents were starting to form on the primitive Earth.<br />

It also features meteor-impact fallback breccias resulting<br />

from the impact of meteorites formed just after the Great<br />

Bombardment (4.6 to 3.8 billion years ago).<br />

“As the Mpumalanga Tourism and Parks Agency (MTPA) this<br />

affords us an opportunity to add more to the variety of product<br />

offerings in the province”, said Mr Johannes Nobunga, CEO of<br />

MTPA.<br />

“As we continue to promote the destination, our marketing<br />

efforts will also go a long way in creating awareness in our<br />

local communities and the world at large about this unique<br />

tourism offering and what it means for the province”, added<br />

Nobunga.<br />

Barberton Makhonjwa Mountains becomes South Africa’s 10th<br />

World Heritage site, and the first for Mpumalanga. This iconic<br />

site will now be granted access to funds from the World Heritage<br />

Fund to use for conservation which is likely to increase tourism<br />

in the area.<br />

“We are delighted with this achievement as a province. We<br />

have had a dedicated team that worked tirelessly for years to<br />

see this dream realized. We are grateful for their hard work in<br />

putting Mpumalanga on a global map. It is our responsibility to<br />

ensure that we work together with the communities to protect<br />

the integrity and the authenticity of this natural property”,<br />

concluded Nobunga.

with age-appropriate toys, educational products and tailormade<br />

through all developmental areas from before birth until your<br />

munchkin goes to primary school! The programme is based<br />

on the South African Department of Education’s National<br />

Curriculum Framework for ECD. Through playing and<br />

SUBSCRIPTION<br />

The My Smart Kid programme produces thinkers and for this<br />

reason we are offering boxes that facilitate learning in the<br />

areas of Maths, Language and Life Skills in grade 1.<br />

Grade 1<br />

Each Smart Box is an assortment of learning tools, games and<br />

products that reinforce skills being learned in the first year of<br />

primary school with the added benefit that your child will learn<br />

while having fun with you. Each of the 3 subject boxes contains<br />

a Parent Guide to explain the purpose of the contents of the<br />

box with great ideas and fun activities. This is not subscriptionbased<br />

so parents can buy a box that can be used for the entire<br />

year and beyond. It’s a keeper!<br />

See website for pricing<br />

These boxes have been recently launched and can be purchased separately or<br />

in addition to the grade 1 boxes. The Life Skills Box will help your child make<br />

well-informed, healthy choices and learn behaviours that contribute to their safety<br />

and well-being. This box will help parents guide and prepare their child for life<br />

and all its wonderful, yet sometimes scary, possibilities.<br />

Grade 2<br />

In grade 2 mathematics, your child will start to understand more complicated<br />

concepts and look for reasons behind things by asking questions to obtain more<br />

information. The Maths Box will assist with growing their thinking and problemsolving<br />

skills as they start to understand how mathematics relates to other<br />

subjects and to the world around them.<br />

The Language Box is aimed at taking the frustration out of helping your child learn<br />

english language skills during their second year at school. Inside this box are<br />

carefully selected products that reinforce listening, reading, speaking and writing<br />

skills through practice, play and quality time with a parent.<br />
