Their schoolwork and even writing is absolutely brilliant \u2013 writing with no mistakes! The spelling festival broadens their vocabularies and their general knowledge along with it. Words literally open worlds for them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>The teachers at this school ensure that the each participant learns at least four grades\u2019s words \u2013 \u201can enormous amount of words to which they wouldn\u2019t have been exposed to otherwise\u201d, says Ms. Koorts. <\/p>\n\n<p>She says the learners also get a huge boost in confidence, echoing the words of <strong>Fiona van Kerwel<\/strong>, <strong>WOW manager<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/wow.woordfees.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WOW-debatfees_QT-15-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"spelfees\" class=\"wp-image-5193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wow.woordfees.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WOW-debatfees_QT-15-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wow.woordfees.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WOW-debatfees_QT-15-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wow.woordfees.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WOW-debatfees_QT-15-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wow.woordfees.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WOW-debatfees_QT-15-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wow.woordfees.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WOW-debatfees_QT-15.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sub>Fiona van Kerwel, WOW manager PHOTO: AB Jantjies<\/sub><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>\u201cLearners are asked to stand up and spell or sound the words out loud. In so doing, we build their self-confidence so that they can communicate with confidence and express themselves. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cEmpowerment is central to the spelling festival and WOW\u2019s mission. We must make sure our children have a strong foundation for their vocabulary as well as their understanding and use of words. If not, we are doing them an injustice. Many thanks to all our learners, teachers and parents for your ceaseless dedication, preparation and absolute passion for WOW and all our projects \u2013 it belongs to you as much as it is ours. We are now handing over the key to you to unlock your own potential and carry our children to a bright future together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>The young wordsmiths and their teachers and parents have free access to excellent language resources on the WOW website, with word lists, 10- and 50-point spelling tests, difficult words, explanatory phrasebooks, and more.

For the past 21 years, we have been broadening the horizons of learners and educators at underserved schools through creative programs focused on language skills and the arts.<\/p>\n\n<p>Our annual WOW Festival is currently in full swing at the Stellenbosch Woordfees, with many of our project actions being offered throughout the year, such as the paint and verse sharpening school, debate festival, speakers, a special concert for grade 11 learners and much more. The WOW Festival runs until October 6. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969
