Safety & security: Going beyond the call of duty

When they’e not stopping crime and arresting criminals, many police officers are busy making a meaningful contribution to their communities. 

Every year, the South African Police Services (SAPS) recognises and rewards these bright stars. This year was no exception. 

Under the theme “Our brightest stars, going beyond the call of duty”, 10 women from SAPS were honoured at a glittering function at Sun City, in the North West.

VENDA TRADITIONAL DRESS

Venda women and girls

The most colourful part of Venda women's clothing is the upper garment made from multi-coloured striped cloth called 'wenda. It is a length of cloth with a strip (bannda) sewn on across the top and two straps (mivhofho) of the same cloth to tie over the shoulder.
