SING IN MIDSTREAM
Sing in Midstream is back and is going to be better than before. This year there will be old school sing-along Christmas carols for the whole family to enjoy. Join us from 17h00 on 27 November at Midstream Ridge Primary for a celebration with community, Christmas family photographs, fun for kids, refreshments and a bite to eat. Book your tickets from R50 at Quicket .
We will have 2 x R1000 SPAR vouchers as spot prizes during the evening. Together with Spar we are running a Charity Comfort Box initiative this year. It’s very simple - choose and remove a tag from the Christmas tree at the entrance of either of the Spar stores and scan it at the cashier. Your comfort box will be packed and added to the collection bin. Your comfort box will be first-line assistance for children, women, and men who have been victims of Gender Based Violence, rape, and human trafficking. Our support this year goes towards The Epic Foundation and Yenzani Children's Home.
