Kovsie Extravaganza Zircus a big success
2012-10-17

Kovsie Extravaganza “Zircus”
17 October 2012

Hundreds of people flocked to the Callie Human Centre on Saturday 13 October 2012 for the Kovsie Extravaganza “Zircus”. Friends, family and lovers of the arts watched the amazing performances by students from our Bloemfontein and Qwaqwa Campuses. South African singer-songwriter and poet Zahara also wowed the crowd.

The Kovsie Extravaganza had a circus theme. Clowns ensured that the audience remained enthusiastic. The university’s orchestra added a touch of elegance to the show and the choir brought musical harmony to the event. There were performances of rap, pop, drama and poetry.

As soon as Zahara stepped on stage, the crowd went wild. She performed songs such as Destiny, Umthwalo and Loliwe.

The event donated R10 out of every ticket bought to the No Student Hungry campaign that offers food bursaries to our students. It is known that twenty precent of our students cannot afford food to sustain them on campus. Events like the Extravaganza help raise funds for the campaign.
