Sanlam WOW Spelfees
Spelling lists are uploaded to the website and schools complete entry forms for participation. Spelling festivals are then presented at different levels based on geographical location. The first level of participation is at school level, after which all participating schools meet in specific education circles. Winners in circuit spelling festivals take part in district spelling festivals, and these winners advance to the provincial game festivals. Winners from the respective provinces participate in the national Sanlam WOW Spelfees.
