MUKONO - On a hot afternoon at Mukono’s St. Elizabeth Montessori School, the Toto Christmas Festival team arrived to invite children to the festival.
The festival, dubbed Toto Christmas Festival, is a Vision Group event organised for children, making it a day of fun, play and laughter.
Alongside Vision Group are sponsors in this endeavour, who include Ruparelia Group, SUMZ, Toyota Uganda, Indomie Instant Noodles and Pepsi.
“We have come to talk about the Toto Christmas Festival. You are going to play the whole day at only sh 10, 000. You will get to enjoy swimming, the merry-go-rounds and bouncing castles.
“There is a talent search as well, where we are going to give out cash prizes and other gifts. Those who have a talent in singing, dancing, and art should take part in the talent search,” said Toto Magazine editor, Grace Nampiima.
