Benjamin Preparatory School hosted its Cake & Candy Winter Wonderland fundraiser held on May 27.

The event brought together learners, parents and teachers for a day of fun while raising funds to support the school’s continued growth and expansion.

Classes from Grades One to 10 took part in the fundraiser by creating their own stalls selling a variety of food items, sweet treats and fun activities.

Learners worked in small groups within their classes to set up and run the stalls, learning teamwork, creativity and entrepreneurship along the way.

Visitors enjoyed a wide selection of attractions, including pizzas, pancakes, candyfloss, cupcakes, boerewors rolls, face painting, football challenges, jumping castles and games.

The event also encouraged friendly competition between classes as they worked to raise the most funds. Special prizes were awarded to the top-performing classes and teachers, adding to the excitement of the day.

Principal Kruger Rautenbach said the fundraiser forms part of the school’s regular fundraising programme held every term.

“We usually host one fundraiser every term, and this term’s fundraiser was Cake and Candy with a Winter Wonderland theme. The money raised goes back into the school as we continue expanding and buying properties to improve the school for our learners. The fundraiser would not be possible without the support and involvement of the school community,” he said.
