Children from Tshepiso Kiddies World Preschool and Tshepiso ya Lerato Preschool displayed their talents and confidence during a special celebration on Friday, 6 November. The event brought together learners, parents and educators for a day that combined a beauty pageant with an awards ceremony recognising children’s progress and achievements.
Six-year-old Lusakhanya Dlamini was crowned Queen, while Lwazi Lenkosi Motsamayi took the King title. Both winners received R1,500 in prize money. Lusakhanya dreams of becoming a doctor and hopes to use her winnings to buy a jumping castle. Lwazi, who aspires to become an artist, plans to spend his prize money on toys and shopping.
Principal Agnes Ramosela told Globe Post that the pageant was aimed at building confidence among young children by giving them opportunities to express themselves, showcase their abilities and participate in activities beyond the classroom. The awards ceremony also recognised learners progressing to the next level of their education. Children who completed their computer lessons received certificates, while teachers were also acknowledged for their achievements.
Parents welcomed the prizes, which they said would help towards school fees and uniform expenses for the 2027 academic year. The celebrations included a raffle, with six educators winning prizes. All participating children also received gifts. Ramosela thanked everyone who contributed to making the event successful, including parents, teachers and other supporters.
