Snowman building at the Ice Station ice skating rink

Cape Town kids to challenge WP Rugby players at snowman building


Winter School Holidays means snowman building at the Cape Peninsula Ice Skating Rink at The Ice Station at Grandwest Casino Complex. On Wednesday, 5 October, Tim Whitehead, Tiger Bax, Adrian Kritzinger and Nick Fenton Wells will join in with the kids to help create their very own masterpieces made entirely from snow!  

This is your chance to see how these guys perform on ice without a rugby ball in sight. The theme is World Cup Rugby, so kids must build a Snowman that best represents our SA rugby team. Prizes are up for grabs and kids must bring along small spades and buckets for scooping up the ice.

Normal ice skating prices apply and if your child is not skating, snowman building is R5.

It’s the school holidays but that doesn’t mean that there’s no ‘me time’ how about joining some of Franschhoek highly acclaimed chefs for three hands on cooking demonstrations to take your cooking from ok to gourmet.
