Sing Sussa Sing is a unique Afrikaans female mass choir project that fosters a vibrant community of women who share one core passion, singing together on a professional stage. Open to every woman and girl aged 12 and up, this inclusive project breaks down generational barriers and transforms ordinary lives through an extraordinary musical experience.
Taking place at the prestigious South African State Theatre in Pretoria East the project spans four intensive days of rehearsals, camaraderie and artistic growth, culminating in a public theatrical concert performed with professional musicians.
The Story Behind the Name
“Sing Sussa Sing” is derived from a popular encouragement slogan, capturing the spirit of female empowerment. “Sing, sussa, sing!” is a call to every woman to lift her voice, embrace her strength, and shine on stage. It’s a celebration of confidence, unity and self‑expression.
Why Sing Sussa Sing is Unique
1. Intergenerational Participation
With no upper age limit, Sing Sussa Sing regularly features multi‑generational line‑ups—mothers, daughters, grandmothers and friends can all stand side by side on stage. Meeting each other across generations creates an enriching and bonding social experience.
2. Women‑Centred Choir Community
This is not a conventional choir. It’s a lively, inclusive four‑day project designed for women from all walks of life. You don’t need formal training. Whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned chorister, you’ll be part of a supportive, enthusiastic community dedicated to singing, friendship and joy.
3. Professional Theatre Production
Experience what it’s like to perform in a full‑scale theatre environment. From sound checks to stage lighting, microphones to backing musicians, participants enjoy an authentic, high‑quality production that elevates the choir‑on‑stage experience far beyond an average community choir.
4. Focus on Enjoyment & Empowerment
Sing Sussa Sing emphasises fun, empowerment and escapism. Participants immerse themselves in spirited rehearsals, break free from daily routines, and shine on stage in a specially curated concert that celebrates the art of female vocal expression.
Enrolment into the Choir Experience
Secure your place as a soprano or alto by registering before the closing date. The project accommodates women aged 12+, with voice‑part placement handled during sign‑up. Registration includes access to all rehearsals, music, vocal coaching and stage preparation.
Four‑Day Rehearsals
The intensive rehearsal schedule typically runs over a long weekend—such as the upcoming 11–14 September 2025 event at the State Theatre in Pretoria East. Each session is structured to build vocal unity, technical skill and stage presence in a positive, pressure‑free environment.
Accompaniment by Professional Musicians
During rehearsals and performances, choirs are supported by a team of professional musicians and sound technicians. This elevates the musical experience, offering participants an authentic, polished choir performance.
Public Concerts
After four days of creative preparation, the choir takes to the State Theatre stage for one or two public concerts—a grand finale that allows friends, family and the public to witness the power of female voices in harmony within a professional setting.

Tucked away in the heart of Pretoria East, Tswalo House stands as a beacon of hope and compassion for South Africa’s most vulnerable citizens, abandoned, abused and neglected babies. More than just a temporary home, Tswalo House offers safety, love and stability during the most critical moments of a child’s early life. It is a place where little ones are nurtured with care and dignity while arrangements are made for permanent placement, ensuring each child has the opportunity to thrive in a secure and loving environment.
At its core, Tswalo House is more than a facility – it is a sanctuary. The name Tswalo means new beginning in Setswana, a fitting reflection of the mission that drives every effort behind its doors. Each baby welcomed into Tswalo House receives more than shelter. They are given a chance to heal, grow and begin again.
South Africa continues to face a heart breaking crisis, with many babies abandoned or found in dire circumstances each year. Tswalo House was established in response to this urgent need, to create a warm and safe environment for these children to receive immediate care. Whether a baby has been abandoned at birth, rescued from abuse or removed from a neglectful situation, the team at Tswalo House responds with compassion and professionalism.
The house operates as a temporary place of safety, providing short term residential care until social workers and child protection services are able to arrange a permanent solution. This could include reunification with family, foster care or adoption. Every case is handled with sensitivity, in close cooperation with the Department of Social Development and other child welfare organisations.
Unlike larger institutions, Tswalo House offers intimate, home like care in a family style setting. It is not simply a shelter, but a home filled with warmth and attentiveness. Babies are fed, bathed, comforted and engaged in developmental play. Each child receives age-appropriate care tailored to their individual needs, including medical check-ups, emotional support and loving human interaction.
The home is staffed by a dedicated team of trained caregivers, volunteers and professionals who work in shifts to ensure 24-hour supervision and consistent, nurturing attention. The small number of children housed at any one time allows for focused, one on one care and helps each baby feel safe and valued.
What also sets Tswalo House apart is its belief in the power of early intervention. The first months of a child’s life are crucial in laying the foundation for emotional and cognitive development. By providing a stable and affectionate environment during this window of time, Tswalo House helps counteract the trauma these children have already endured and supports healthier futures.
Tswalo House is a project of the ENTC Foundation, a non-profit organisation committed to changing the lives of vulnerable children and families in South Africa. As a registered organisation, Tswalo House relies heavily on the generosity of individuals, churches, schools and businesses in the Pretoria East community and beyond.
There are many ways to get involved. Supporters can contribute through financial donations, monthly sponsorships, fundraising efforts or by donating essential items such as baby formula, nappies, clothing and hygiene products. Volunteer opportunities are also available for those who want to lend their time and skills. Every donation, no matter how small, helps keep the lights on, the babies warm and the doors open.
Tswalo House also invites local businesses to partner with them through their corporate social responsibility initiatives. Not only does this benefit the babies, but it also fosters a deeper sense of community, purpose and shared impact.
The team at Tswalo House operates with a deep understanding that each child has inherent value and deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. Their goal is not just to meet basic needs, but to restore the emotional trust and sense of security that may have been broken by early trauma. Each baby is spoken to gently, held lovingly and celebrated for who they are.
Behind every cot is a story of loss, but also one of resilience and hope. From the smallest newborn to the more active toddler, every baby at Tswalo House is on a journey of healing. And at the heart of that journey is the belief that love makes a difference.
If you are looking for a meaningful way to make a difference in Pretoria East, consider supporting Tswalo House. Whether you choose to sponsor a baby, host a fundraising drive or offer hands-on help, your involvement will go directly towards changing the life of a child in need.
Visit the official ENTC Foundation website at https://entcfoundation.org/ to learn more about the mission, current needs and how to get in touch. Tswalo House also shares regular updates and stories of impact on their social media pages, allowing supporters to see the real difference their generosity makes.
Tswalo House is not a place where children remain. It is a place where they begin again. With each new arrival comes a renewed commitment to protect, nurture and prepare that child for a brighter future. In a world that can be harsh, Tswalo House is a reminder that kindness still exists, that every baby matters and that new beginnings are possible.
By opening your heart and hands to Tswalo House, you become part of a story far bigger than yourself, one of restoration, redemption and renewed hope in the lives of South Africa’s most vulnerable babies.
Nestled in the heart of Pretoria East, Pallet is more than just a coffee shop. It is a one of a kind destination that brings the charm of a farmstall into the bustle of urban life. Whether you are commuting to work, exploring the weekend, or simply searching for a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy great food, Pallet offers a unique blend of rustic comfort, artisanal coffee, outdoor experiences and heartfelt hospitality.
From its carefully chosen name to the handcrafted menu and scenic setting, Pallet embodies creativity, community and countryside flair. This is the perfect stop for coffee lovers, foodies and families looking to unwind and reconnect.
What makes Pallet truly special is not only what it offers but also the thoughtful meaning behind its name. “Pallet” holds three layers of symbolism, each thoughtfully woven into the fabric of the business. Firstly, it calls to mind the traditional wooden pallet, a familiar sight in farm life, representing hard work, simplicity and sustainability. Secondly, it hints at the culinary palate, celebrating the delicious food and beverages that delight visitors’ taste buds. Lastly, it refers to an artist’s palette, symbolising imagination, creativity and the vibrant mix of experiences that make Pallet so distinctive.
This layered name wasn’t chosen lightly. In fact, it was the inspired idea of the founder’s daughter, whose creative input perfectly captures the heart and soul of the business.
Pallet is unlike any other spot in Pretoria East. While most coffee shops rely on city-chic appeal or minimalist design, Pallet offers something far more grounded, a true farmstall experience right in town. Visitors step into a relaxing countryside setting, complete with the warmth and authenticity you would expect to find along a scenic road trip.
It is this contrast, rural charm in an urban setting, that makes Pallet stand out. Here, you can enjoy the peacefulness and character of a roadside farm stop without leaving the city.
At Pallet, quality is at the centre of everything. The coffee is expertly brewed using only the finest beans, ensuring every cup is rich, aromatic and satisfying. But it is not just about the coffee, Pallet’s food menu offers an irresistible selection of homemade favourites.
From wood fired pizza and freshly made toasties to hearty tramezzini’s and sweet treats, there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re stopping by for breakfast, grabbing a midday bite or settling in for a relaxed weekend meal, the food is wholesome, flavourful and made with care.
What truly sets Pallet apart is the range of activities available for both kids and adults. This is not just a place to eat, it is a destination to enjoy. Children can delight in pony and horse rides, race around in go-carts or kick a ball on the open soccer fields. Families can enjoy catch and release fishing or simply relax in the open space while the kids burn off energy in a safe, engaging environment.
There is also a small curio shop that adds to the charm of the experience. Visitors can browse through an assortment of local crafts, gifts and keepsakes, all thoughtfully selected to reflect the rustic, artistic spirit of the farmstall.
Pallet is more than a coffee stop, it is a community hub. With its artist-inspired name and farm rooted vibe, the space invites connection, conversation and creativity. Whether it is families gathering after school, friends catching up over cappuccinos or individuals finding inspiration in the quiet charm of the setting, Pallet welcomes everyone.
It’s also an ideal spot for small events or informal meetings. The open layout, relaxed ambience and welcoming staff create an atmosphere that feels personal and inviting. The team behind Pallet is passionate about making every visitor feel at home, and it shows in the thoughtful touches that define the experience.
If you are looking for a place where good coffee meets country character, where children can play freely and adults can unwind, Pallet is the destination for you. Conveniently located in Pretoria East, it offers a perfect escape without needing to leave town.
Whether you are a local looking for your new favourite hangout or a visitor discovering the charm of Pretoria East, make sure Pallet is on your list. From morning coffees to weekend adventures, every visit promises warmth, quality and a little piece of the countryside.
You will find Pallet at the perfect intersection of convenience and charm. Visit their website at www.palletfarmstall.co.za for more information, opening hours and directions.

Nestled in the quiet suburb of Murrayfield in Pretoria East, Gegrond has been delighting coffee lovers with premium roasted beans since 2019. What began as a passionate venture in small batch roasting has flourished into a trusted national brand, widely respected for its quality driven approach to coffee. With a growing online presence and an expanding product range, Gegrond has become a preferred choice for discerning home brewers, café owners and hospitality professionals across South Africa.
From the outset, Gegrond’s focus has been clear, to roast and supply exceptional specialty coffee that celebrates both origin and craftsmanship. Their beans are sourced with care, often from small-scale producers who prioritise sustainable farming practices. Each batch is roasted in house at their roastery in Murrayfield using precision profiling to bring out the unique characteristics of every origin.
This dedication to quality led to national acclaim when Gegrond won A Shot in the Dark in 2021, South Africa’s most respected coffee roasting competition. The annual event tests roasters on a wide range of skills including green coffee evaluation, roast profiling and cupping. Winning first place cemented Gegrond’s reputation within the local coffee industry. Their performance in subsequent years has remained strong, with a sixth-place finish overall in 2024 and a first-place award for the espresso category, affirming their continued excellence.
While Gegrond does not operate a walk-in café, their online store www.gegrond.co.za makes it easy for customers throughout South Africa to enjoy their coffee at home. The platform offers a streamlined shopping experience, where visitors can choose from a curated selection of single origin beans, blends and limited edition micro-lots.

Their online store also features a range of brewing equipment and accessories, carefully selected to suit both beginners and experienced brewers. From manual pour over setups to high end espresso machines, Gegrond offers reliable products that support a quality brewing experience.
In 2023, Gegrond broadened its craft offering with the introduction of bean to bar chocolate. Applying the same principles of traceability and flavour development used in their coffee, they now roast high quality cocoa beans to produce a refined collection of single origin chocolates. These chocolates are minimally processed to retain the natural complexity of the cocoa and are presented with the same transparency and care as their coffees.
This addition brings a new layer of depth to the Gegrond brand, appealing to customers who value authentic flavour and artisanal production methods. Their chocolate bars pair beautifully with coffee and make for thoughtful gifts or indulgent personal treats.
Gegrond supplies freshly roasted coffee to a variety of cafés, restaurants, lodges and office spaces throughout South Africa. What sets them apart is not only the quality of their beans but the collaborative support they offer their wholesale partners. From the initial setup to ongoing consultation, Gegrond provides free barista training and guidance to ensure consistency and excellence in every cup.
Their team works closely with hospitality clients to match them with coffees that suit their menu and clientele. This tailored approach has helped many small cafés and lodges elevate their coffee service and retain loyal customers.
Whether you are setting up a new business or looking to refine your current offering, Gegrond’s wholesale programme is designed to empower partners with knowledge, tools and confidence.
