- Description: It's the end of a big year for all South Africans. April saw all of us rejoice and celebrate as Nelson Mandela became the first president of a free South Africa. But it has also been a difficult year. 'What's the use of freedom if our daily lives are ruled by guns?' This issue is explored in our feature 'Guns - what's to be done?' on page 4. But the youth of our country continue to believe in the future. Read about how young people in Wattville, are using their talents to brighten up their own neighbourhood on page 30. Now it's holiday time and Upbeat is packed with fun reading, games and lots of information on great holiday reads. So put up your feet and enjoy your well earned break. We wish all of you a happy and peaceful holiday. Thank- you for your support in 1994.

- Description: Where is Maputaland? It is in Northern Kwazulu/Natal. For many years, the government ignored far away places like Maputaland. The roads are terrible and there are few buses. People must walk a very long way to get to a clinic or a shop. The people of Maputaland wanted to solve their transport problem. So they got together with the Khuphuka Skills Training and Employment Programme. Khuphuka is training local people to build drains, roads and bridges. In the Ingwavume and KwaNgwanase districts, 36 young men and women are training to be team leaders. While they work, they are being taught all about how to build roads. When they graduate from the course, they will supervise other trainees. The project is part of the Reconstruction and Development Programme and is co-ordinated by the Department of Public Works.

- Description: The two-hour drive from Cape Town to Worcester is long. But it’s not boring. You pass green, open farmlands where cattle graze. Every now and then, you cross a river or a stream. In the distance, the purple mountains frame the blue sky. Bree River High School In the valley surrounded by the Hottentots-Holland mountains, you find Worcester. Just outside the town is Bree River High School. Wilfred Zebedezela is a student there. He throws the shotput. He lives on a farm outside Worcester and he travels for an hour everyday to get to and from school. ‘At school there isn’t a place where I can train with weights, said Wilfred. ‘So I build my muscles by doing farm work. I would like to practice shotput at home, but I can’t because there is only one shotput at school. I can’t practise at school, as there is no teacher to stay behind in the afternoons with me.’ Ruduwaan Visagie is a 200 metre sprinter. ‘We can’t afford things like starting blocks. We ran in the South African Junior Athletics Championships. But some of our athletes almost couldn't take part. We didn’t have starting blocks. Fortunately, we managed to borrow some.’
