The King Edward VII School Easter Festival (KES Festival) is back and promises to be yet another great sporting spectacle.
KES is again privileged to host the Easter Rugby and Hockey Festival, following a hiatus in the past two years due to Covid-9 pandemic this unique event is back and made possible by Standard Bank.
The 2022 King Edward VII Easter Rugby Festival, sponsored by Standard Bank, will take place from 14 to 18 April.
The festival has been known for having a unique family flavour and is considered to be an annual pilgrimage for multitudes of past pupils and friends of the school.
The Easter Rugby and Hockey Festival was first staged in 2002 as a key event in celebrating King Edward VII School`s Centenary.
It was originally planned as a once off Festival but as a result of the huge success it turned out to be, became an integral component of the school`s annual calendar.
A crucial ingredient of the festival is to provide a platform for the participating teams to play without the pressures so typical of normal seasonal fixtures.
And to also pit their skills against opposition who they would not normally encounter, a recipe for unhindered expression of talents.
The festival has produced various sports stars who have gone to achieve great things in their respective fields and is definitely one event not to miss this year.
