MUSICAL OUTREACH
The Musical Outreach evening was held on the 13th of May 2016.
There were performances by the Deutsche Schule Pretoria, Partnership
Schools, Tshwane School of Music’s Jazz Band and Just 6, an
award winning capella group.
Mr Matthias Leeflang (Head of the New Secondary School at the
DSP) and Mrs Chamel Paul who were masters of ceremony opened
the evening with style and did fantastic jobs. Anita Ohl-Meyer the
Head of Cultural Affairs for the Embassy of the Federal Republic of
Germany gave a speech on behalf of the German Government.
Nantes, Boikgantsho and Norridge Park Primary schools all gave
breath-taking cultural performances to the amazement of the
audience.
The Aula was fully packed with an excited audience that consisted
of people from all walks of life. They clapped their hands,
stamped their feet, danced along and ululated in appreciation
of the excellent performances. Food and drinks were served and
everybody had a splendid time.
When the award winning cappella group, Just6, gave the closing
performance, everyone was on their feet dancing the night away!
This was truly a memorable Musical Outreach Evening!
