At the live event on Saturday, 21 October, a panel of judges will select the top performing schools. The winning primary and high schools will receive R20 000 cash and runner-up primary and high schools will win R 10 000 cash. The competition was open to all schools in Mitchells Plain and Khayelitsha.
