Connections Celebration Festival

Every day in schools across the country, teachers and children are in the act of imagining themselves into the future. But what kind of future should we prepare for?

Mimosa is a pre-primary and foundation phase at the foot of the SABC tower in Auckland Park, Johannesburg. The overarching enquiry across the whole school for 2019 has been how do we connect to our surrounding community via the city streets? That informed our involvement in Open Streets and our day to day enquiry in each classroom.

The Mimosa Celebration Festival is an evolution of the usual year-end concert and will be a morning long multi-disciplinary showcase that shares highlights and selections of the work that’s been done throughout the year.

Audience Responses
Was really good thanks. Except the speakers were way too loud to be around kids. Especially the ones in the classroom. The shade was also sparse.
