Miss Coastal beauty pageant uplifts spirits

Zané-Lee Jacobs
On Thursday 5 September the Coastal High School hall was transformed into a realm of elegance and sophistication for the Miss Coastal event. The event commenced at 16:30, inviting guests into an evening filled with music, laughter, and heartwarming talent. This captivating evening celebrated the beauty, talent and community spirit of seven stunning models.

Throughout the evening, a diverse array of local performers took center stage, each act adding their unique flavour to the event. The school choir’s enchanting harmonies filled the hall, while local dance groups showcased their energetic routines, infusing the atmosphere with a vibrant rhythm.

The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the performance by the renowned Swakopmund band, Honde Met Vuil Maniere. Their infectious energy and foot-tapping beats had the audience dancing and singing along, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. The band’s performance was a testament to the power of music to unite and uplift a community.

In addition to the entertainment, refreshments were generously provided throughout the evening. Attendees enjoyed light bites and refreshments, allowing them to socialise and connect with fellow community members.

As the night drew to a close, a palpable sense of camaraderie filled the room. The Miss Coastal event had not only showcased local talent but also forged a strong bond among the performers and attendees. The evening served as a reminder of the power of community, the importance of celebrating local achievements, and the joy that can be found in sharing the stage with others.

In the tapestry of memories woven that night, the Miss Coastal event would forever be etched as a testament to the vibrant spirit that thrived within our school's community. It was an occasion where talent flourished, laughter soared, and the bonds of community were strengthened.

Not to forget a special mention, a big cheers to Jo-an Vahongaifa, the newly crowned Miss Coastal for 2024, a testament to grace and poise.
