They walked away with the most prizes again after also taking first place in the following categories: best arts and culture report; best general news report; best PDF school newspaper; and best review or impression piece.  <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWhat touches me the most is seeing how our learners grow \u2013 not just as writers, but as young people with a voice, a vision, and the courage to tell their stories. Every day I see their perseverance, their creativity, and their dedication to making each edition better than the previous one. It is truly special for me to be part of that process and to guide them as they begin to recognize and live out their potential,\u201d says <strong>Toyer Hefca<\/strong>, educator and school newspaper coordinator at Klein Nederburg Secondary. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Scott Adams<\/strong>, a matric learner and chairperson of the school newspaper at Klein Nederburg Secondary, says the WOW School Media Competition tested the editorial team\u2019s discipline and perseverance. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cEvery article had to be thoroughly reviewed and refined. During this process, we developed valuable skills, including creativity, self-discipline, and collaboration \u2013 traits that we can apply in our schoolwork as well as our daily lives,\u201d says Adams. <\/p>\n\n<p>Three more Boland schools excelled. Charleston Hill Secondary from Paarl took second place in the categories for the best PDF school newspaper (Section B) and best news photo and caption (Section A); and third place in the categories for best article or profile, best arts and culture report, best general news report, and best overall entry (Section A).     <\/p>\n\n<p>Bergrivier High School from Wellington took first place in the category for best article or profile; second place in the categories for best arts and culture report, best general news report, best overall entry (Section A), and best PDF newspaper (Section B); and third place in the categories for best news photo and caption (Section A) and best review or impression piece (Section C).   <\/p>\n\n<p>Tulbagh High School won in the category for best news photo and caption. <\/p>\n\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/wow.woordfees.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Winners-WOW-School-Media-Competition-2025.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer

drives, dictionaries, and language editing and writing resources. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWe want to inspire and motivate learners and schools to tell their stories, to reflect on their environments, to celebrate what they are proud of, to pay tribute to role models, to get excited about possibilities and opportunities, to ask critical questions, to find solutions, and to hold up a mirror to their communities \u2013 through school newspapers, newsletters, and social media. We hope this project will open, change, decorate, and illuminate worlds \u2013 while learners also acquire important communication and language skills,\u201d says Jacolette Kloppers, content coordinator of WOW\u2019s School Media Project. <\/p>\n\n<p>Seven Western Cape high schools entered the 2025 competition, which was presented as part of WOW\u2019s School Media Project. Throughout the year (and also during the Toyota Stellenbosch Woordfees), schools can attend workshops where experienced journalists and other experts discuss various aspects of journalism and school newspapers. Schools also receive resources and practical advice on how to expand and improve their school newspapers and school news. A series of training videos for school newspaper editorial teams is also available on WOW\u2019s website.   <\/p>\n\n<p>This year\u2019s first School Media Day \u2013 during which the prize-giving and a practical workshop were presented \u2013 reached the most schools to date. About 200 learners and teachers from 19 schools from across the Western Cape attended the day. <\/p>\n\n<p>WOW is an empowerment initiative of SU and offers creative and educational programmes to schools aimed at promoting language, literacy, literature, and the arts.
