Child Welfare Potchefstroom gears up for Outdoor Family Fiesta - Postpone due to weather

Child Welfare Potchefstroom is preparing for a lively community afternoon with its upcoming Outdoor Family Fiesta. The organisation hopes to draw families, friends and even the odd curious neighbour for a relaxed day out that won’t require any complicated planning or polished picnic baskets.

Event details

The fiesta takes place on Saturday, 29 November 2025 at 15:00 at Piet Bosman Stadium in Potchefstroom. The event is positioned as a simple get-together that lets everyone unwind while supporting a local cause.

Tickets are available directly from the Child and Family Welfare office. Prices are straightforward

• R50 for children under 12

• R100 for adults and children over 12

• R300 for a family package for four

The team can be contacted on 018-293-0425, 082-856-5247 or 061-587-7928, and by email at supervisorpotchcw@gmail.com

Extra callout for vendors

In addition to inviting the public, Child Welfare Potchefstroom is calling for vendors who would like to be part of the day. Anyone with a stall idea that ranges from food to crafts to “whatever you can fit on a trestle table” is welcome to enquire. The organisation encourages early bookings to avoid last-minute scrambles.

What to expect

While the details are kept intentionally simple, the promise is clear. The day is described as one filled with fun, which in South African terms usually translates to children running around, adults finding the shadiest spots and a general atmosphere of friendly chaos.

The event also doubles as a fundraising drive for Child and Family Welfare Potchefstroom, allowing the community to show support without needing to dress up, sit still or interpret formal speeches.

The Outdoor Family Fiesta aims to bring residents together in a casual setting while helping a long-standing welfare organisation continue its work. Whether attending with family, joining as a vendor or simply spreading the word, community involvement remains the heart of the day.
