The Pretoria School for Cerebral Palsy’s Building Tomorrow program is one of the beneficiaries of the Food and Wine Festival. This programme prepares learners with disabilities for entering the labour market and earning their own income.

The festival, sponsored by SARIE KOS, promises to be a highlight on the Pretoria social calendar for 2011.

Visit food and cheese stalls from all over the country. Children are entertained by the MNet KooWee children’s broadcasting channel. Classical music is performed live during the course of the festival. Winemakers from selected wine boutique cellars make a unique contribution.
