A very successful morning for the parents of first-year students who are coming to study at Kovsies in 2011 was presented on our Main Campus in Bloemfontein at the end of 2010. It was the first time that a programme of this nature was presented and approximately 300 parents from across the country attended the event in a packed Scaena Theatre. The parents were informed about all aspects of student life and were afforded the opportunity to talk to staff members and ask questions.
