Celiwe Kumalo of Inhlakanipho School Dance Competition said that over 200 learners directly benefited in the pilot stage of the competition.
“The prize must be used by the school towards a creative arts project, ensuring the impact lasts beyond the stage. We also encourage business owners around the area to come on board and assist us with funds that we can use towards the dance competition.
“We believe that not all learners are built only for academics; we therefore use this platform to sharpen their dance skills and even discover them,” Kumalo said.
