LOCAL matric girls and boys have just one week left to enter this year’s PE Express Miss and Mr Matric Dance, with entries closing on October 3.
The winners will receive R2 000 each in Walmer Park gift cards and gift bags, while the runners-up will each receive R1 000 in Walmer Park gift cards and gift bags. In addition, they will be photographed for the front page of PE Express.
The competition is in aid of CANSA, and all funds raised will go towards the work CANSA does in the Eastern Cape.
The 20 finalists (10 boys and 10 girls) will show their beautiful matric dance outfits during the grand finale, which will be in the form of a fashion show at Walmer Park Shopping Centre on Saturday, October 12.
This competition is also held by PE Express’ sister publication, UD Express. The 20 UD Express finalists will also participate in the finale. During the finale, a PE Express Mr and Miss Matric Dance, as well as a UD Express Mr and Miss Matric Dance, will be chosen.
Tickets will be available for friends and family to support the entrants.
The entry fee for the competition is R60 and must be paid directly to CANSA. All entrants will be featured on the PE Express and UD Express Facebook pages.
Entrants will be judged on their overall look, including the dress or suit, hair, make-up, and accessories, so be sure to send a photo where the judges can clearly get the complete picture.
The competition is not open for voting by the public.
To enter, matriculants must send their matric dance photo and entry form via email only.
Entry forms are available from mdevries@cansa.org.za
The matric dance you attended must have been held at a school in Gqeberha. It must be your own matric dance. Visit the PE Express Facebook page for more info and competition rules.
