Woemaboeke Celebrates 100 Years Of Afrikaans With Creativity And Heart… And You Could Win!

Afrikaans is South Africa’s youngest, but arguably most expressive language, and Woemaboeke is marking the milestone in a creative way. Woemaboeke is hosting an exciting competition and invite learners, teachers, and parents to share their love for Afrikaans in just a few powerful words.

This isn’t your typical writing contest. Instead of lengthy essays or complicated applications, Woemaboeke is asking participants to write a sentence — no longer than ten words — that explains why Afrikaans makes their hearts beat faster. Whether it’s a funny comment, a nostalgic memory, a poetic phrase, or a one-liner that’s deeply heartfelt, your entry should capture what Afrikaans means to you.

The Prize for a lucky winner

One lucky entrant will win a proudly South African gift package valued at R 2000. This prize is not just a treat, but a celebration of local culture and creativity — much like the language itself. Whether you’re passionate about Afrikaans books, food or culture, this is a chance to be rewarded for expressing your love for the language in a unique and memorable way.

How to Enter

To enter is simple and fun, and it all happens on Facebook.

Here’s what you need to do:

1. Like our @Woemaboeke Afrikaans EAT Facebook page.
2. Share the official competition post on your own Facebook timeline.

This is your chance to be as witty, emotional, or original as you like.

Whether you’re a learner with a clever rhyme, a teacher with a heartfelt thought, or a parent with a nostalgic connection, let the world know why Afrikaans speaks to your heart — in ten words or less.

The competition closes at midnight on 13 June 2025.
