A neighbourhood watch member of Oakdale Watch received a call from the school\u2019s caretaker at around 05:00 who confirmed that a suspicious person had been noticed on the school grounds.<\/p>\n<p>The caretaker and a patroller from Oakdale Watch searched the school grounds and saw the suspect who fled after starting the fire. After swift and good cooperation between AfriForum\u2019s Bellville neighbourhood watch, Oakdale Watch and other role players, the fire was extinguished with buckets of water.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe are thankful that security role-players and neighbourhood watch members are vigilant. We cannot allow anarchy to triumph \u2013 especially not at vulnerable places such as our local schools,\u2019\u2019 says Tommy van Zyl, Chairman of AfriForum\u2019s Cape Town North branch.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Get involved with AfriForum\u2019s Cape Town North branch today to make a difference in your community: SMS \u201cCape Town North\u201d to 45265 (R1) to become
