Women's Day celebrated
FUN: About 300 women participated in the Fun Run/Walk.
Tuesday, 13 August 2019
CPUT’s phenomenal women came out in their numbers to celebrate Women’s Day with a 2.5 km fun run/walk on the Bellville campus.
The pouring rain couldn’t stop the approximately 300 women from across the institution’s campuses from completing the event. Prof Penelope Engel-Hills, Acting Dean of the Faculty of Health and Wellness Sciences, officially started the event and two-times Comrades finisher and CPUT civil engineering lecturer Morakane Khahledi ran the race as a pacesetter.
Lusani Vhangani from Food Science and Technology crossed the finish line first.
The race was followed by a Zumba demonstration at the Major Sports Hall where a lucky draw also took place.
A warm lunch and a special gift bag rounded off a spectacular event
