Braais, Beats & Balance: A Day of Connection and Well-being

Posted on May 01, 2025

On 26 April 2025, Commercii, in collaboration with Health House, House Education, and NAT House, proudly hosted the Well-being Braai at the Hillcrest Uitspan Braai Area. As one of the largest social events Commercii has facilitated in recent years, the day offered an exceptional opportunity for students to unwind, connect, and celebrate community.

The vibrant atmosphere, filled with great music, delicious food, and interactive well-being games, created a space where students could relax and recharge ahead of the upcoming test week. “This was one of the biggest social events Commercii has hosted in a long time,” remarked Ipeleng, a Commercii EC from previous years.

We were honoured to welcome representatives from the Department of Student Affairs and UP’s Transformation Office, both of whom gave positive feedback on the event's impact. Their presence and engagement enriched conversations around student empowerment, inclusion, and well-being.

The overwhelming turnout and enthusiastic participation affirmed the importance of blending social connection with holistic well-being. We look forward to building on this success and continuing to create spaces that support our students both academically and socially.
