Queen for a Day

Queen for a Day

Date: 2014-04-11
Queen for a Day 15 young ladies from Reach for a Dream experienced a glittering "Fairytale Princess" themed "Queen for a Day event" hosted by Varsity College Westville and The Oyster Box Hotel. The young ladies aged 8-15years arrived at Varsity College Westville where they were able to choose a Tutu/wings and a wand before being handed a rose and escorted by a strappingly dressed Varsity College student to their awaiting limo. The little VIPs then arrived at their magical destination, The Oyster Box Hotel and were warmly welcomed by the hospitable team with cupcakes and juices, tea and coffee. 

The Shell room had been transformed into a fairytale and the young ladies were able to enjoy mini makeovers and pampering, followed by fun in the photobooth and carriage. The Oyster Box served a phenomenal lunch time high tea for the girls to enjoy and with satisfied stomachs the girls were ready for their "modelling session" whereby Miss Mamelodi Sundowns (Le Mari Smit) taught them how to walk with confidence like a beauty queen. Each girl was then crowned by Le Mari as a "Queen for a Day" before departing with overflowing goodie bags from Varsity College and The Oyster Box. 

The aim of the day was to make these special young ladies feel loved and valued and to create a special event for them to enjoy that will inspire hope in their lives and encourage them to continue on their journey with confidence.
