The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province.

NoordkaapBulletin is a regional newspaper based in Kimberley, the capital of the Northern Cape of South Africa. It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty) Ltd","foundingDate":"2025-01-01","vatID":"4100318916","taxID":"2000\/018234\/07","numberOfEmployees":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":"51","maxValue":"200"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/#\/schema\/person\/e08d7630612634c4a5ced5db09b6608f","name":"Noordkaap Bulletin","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-ZA","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Noordkaap Bulletin"},"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/author\/noordkaapbulletin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/c91e3b6b720f43b686fe126ba1e7f4bc.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":60936,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/diy-build-colourful-wood-stacker-for-toddlers-20200716\/","url_meta":{"origin":60567,"position":0},"title":"DIY: Build colourful wood stacker for toddlers","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"16 July 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"Wooden toys are loved for their classic look and their durability.","rel":"","context":"In &quot;News&quot;","block_context":{"text":"News","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/news\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/7c2ef4b862084fe89a131455d039898c.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200},"classes":[]},{"id":61206,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/diy-create-your-own-wooden-tissue-box-20200618\/","url_meta":{"origin":60567,"position":1},"title":"DIY: Create your own wooden tissue box","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"18 June 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"Tired of the carton tissue box that can be an eye sore and does not match your decor?.","rel":"","context":"In &quot;News&quot;","block_context":{"text":"News","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/news\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cef1572fbf8043d39bc8cf9b69ad7910.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cef1572fbf8043d39bc8cf9b69ad7910.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cef1572fbf8043d39bc8cf9b69ad7910.jpg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cef1572fbf8043d39bc8cf9b69ad7910.jpg?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x"},"classes":[]},{"id":60852,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/make-a-wooden-bed-for-your-furry-friend-20200721-2\/","url_meta":{"origin":60567,"position":2},"title":"DIY: Make a wooden bed for your furry friend","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"23 July 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"Like us, dogs like to feel snug and secure in a warm comfortable bed in order to get a good night\u2019s sleep.
