We are very proud to announce that Lingadzi Leadership Academy Secondary School opened in January 2022. See the video of the school construction here:
This means that 200 pupils per year can now access high quality secondary school education. This would not have been possible without the Blues and Rock in the Garden event. The years of support you have given to this event have really paid off. Thank you!!!
Gates open: 2.00pm - 11.30pm this year. We are only doing Saturday this year, but starting earlier to have more family activities.
The first couple of hours will have a focus on Music & Art with live musicians, an art exhibition and sale, art workshops and, of course, refreshments! Great for all the family to get involved.
" great for the family!"
" a fun afternoon filled with creativity. We loved it!"
