Topic: Munsieville


In the News (Thu 16 Feb 12)

  
  --- VISITORS: The Townships ---
Munsieville grew out of the informal settlements inhabited by mine labourers on the outskirts of the original mining town of Krugersdorp.
The story of Munsieville began on 15 December 1905, when it was gazetted that the piece of land to the north west of Krugersdorp near District Township was to be used as a "native location".
Years later the current township of Munsieville was demarcated and formal township housing was erected.

She says the reason for the low percentage of fl students is that, at 1260 pupils, the institution is so full it can only draw children from its direct feeder area of surrounding suburbs.
But still, many of the children come from the neighbouring townships of Kagiso and Munsieville, and those who cannot afford to pay the annual school fees of R6 700 can apply for exemptions, she says.
Munsieville, established in 1911, is the oldest formal settlement for fl people in Gauteng.

Washington Thage, 28, of Munsieville Location near Krugersdorp told the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's amnesty committee in Johannesburg on Wednesday that he murdered former Pan Africanist Congress member Abinaar Mongwalwa because he did not adhere to "the proper conditions".
But when Mongwalwa and his other expelled colleagues were seen in the township about ten months later, Thage and his comrades regarded that as a defiance of the residents' order, and cornered Mongwalwa outside a house.
He added that the victim would have been attacked anyway as the agreement for their return had been between the ANC and PAC leaderships, not the Munsieville community.
