A large crowd placed their specially made Chanukiahs on their car roof tops, forming an impressive procession of vehicles who drove through the streets of Pretoria to Wingate Park Country Club for the function.

The group sang Maoz Tzur after Rabbi Levi Medalie lit the first candle on the giant menorah. A delicious meal of lasagne, cheese blintzes and donuts followed, with the playing of a Chanukah bingo. All the children received chocolate Chanukah gelt and played games.
