Capetonian, Rozanne Waldeck, has been chosen to be the official singer of the MOT song, “Show Courage” at the 15 year celebrations of MOT in Norway that will happen on 24 March 2012. The delegates for the celebrations will include top honour Norwegian Olympic athletes, dignitaries from the country and other delegates from Namibia, South Africa and Thailand.
Rozanne, ex-Northlink College Hospitality Student, who finished at the College in November 2010, started singing from the age of 11. She has been fortunate to be a part of some of the most well-known singing and talent show competitions including South African Idol where she qualified to reach the top 100 singers in the country. She has had the opportunity to work with other international artists, including Askil Holm from Norway.
“This is a truly a great honour for me and I am very excited about the experience that, I think, will be unforgettable,” says Rozanne.
The MOT celebrations will include looking back to where it all started in 1997 and keynote addresses by some of the fathers of MOT – Johann Olav Koss (Norwegian Olympic gold medallist), Atle Vårvik (Norwegian speed skater) and other Norwegian businessmen that are changing their country and impacting others with the help of MOT.
Says Trish van der Merwe, Deputy CEO of Northlink College and MOT South Africa Board member: “We are proud to have Rozanne not only represent Northlink College and the FET Colleges in the Western Cape but represent the student population of South Africa.”
Rozanne will return to the College in July 2012 and carry on with studies in the Financial Management field.
