Dundee's Nomcebo aims high in national teen pageant
Seventeen-year-old Nomcebo Ntombela, a matric learner at Sarel Cilliers High School in Glencoe, is making waves in the modelling world as she prepares to compete in the Miss Teen Excellency South Africa pageant.
Already crowned a provincial winner in the Miss Face of Schools South Africa competition, Nomcebo is calling on her community to support her journey to the national stage. She will represent KwaZulu-Natal in the finals, which highlight not only beauty, but leadership, confidence and purpose.
'I am excited to represent my province and show what young women from small towns can achieve,' she said.
Unlike traditional pageants, Miss Teen Excellency South Africa focuses on inner beauty, self-assurance and a commitment to positive change among the youth.
'We believe that no matter your background, your dreams are valid,' said the organisers. 'The competition empowers young women with life skills, confidence and opportunities for leadership and service.'
With a passion for cooking and youth development, Nomcebo is especially committed to ensuring young girls complete their education. She now seeks R3 500 in sponsorship to help her reach the next stage.
'I would appreciate any support from Courier readers, and I promise to give back to the community,' she said.
