After the huge success of the Ahgie-festival last year and the community\u2019s support, Afrikaanse Ho\u00ebrskool Germiston will be hosting a festival again this year.<\/p>\n
This year also marks the 70th anniversary of the school.<\/p>
The Ahgie-festival will have something for young and old alike and takes place on the school\u2019s sports fields from 8am to 4pm.<\/p>\n
The school thanks Jacques van Wyk, the owner of Pick n Pay Lambton and Hazel Park, for the huge contribution he has made towards the festival to ensure its success.<\/p>
Dinky Dolly Nursery School and Heavenly Flowers Private School will keep the youngsters occupied with a programme of events which will include the Mr and Miss Heavenly Flowers competition, a jumping castle, performances by the youngsters and much more.<\/p>\n
