Easter Rugby and Hockey Festival 2012 a great success!

The 2012 Easter Festival staged from the 5th April-9th April 2012 concluded in style with the REDS XV completing 3/3 wins and KES 1st XI also winning against Noordheuwel 2-0 earlier in the morning. The line-up of hockey and rugby teams showcased many of the leading rugby and hockey schools in the country, including a touring Italian rugby team who in their 3rd visit to the Festival showed a great improvement winning 2/3 of their encounters. KEPS u13 side also proved they are a strong, dedicated, young side with plenty of talent for the future. The 2012 KES Easter Festival, with the support of new primary sponsor Standard Bank, again provided enticing entertainment for the thousands of spectators who descended upon the School over the holiday week-end.

Thank you to ALL involved in making the 2012 Festival the success that it was! The ‘RED ARMY’ of supporters, volunteers and Old Boys proved once again that King Edward VII School is the place to be during the Easter weekend!
