The last day included a rehearsal in the morning and the grand gala evening. Throughout the competition, the young model received several honours, including Miss Congeniality, Best in Interview and Interview Wear, Best Ramp Model, and Best in Evening Wear.
She was the provincial Gauteng winner. In addition to the Miss Junior South Africa title, Nikita received the crown of Miss Junior Universe South Africa 2025.
Nikita is grateful for the experience: “I met stunning and amazing contestants from all over South Africa and made memories I will cherish forever.”
She thanked those who supported her along the way.
“Thank you to Carolyn Botha, CEO of Pageants SA, for organising such a well-run pageant week and gala evening,” said Nikita.
She also thanked her coach, Luzanne Heunis, for her training in interviews, ramp walking, grooming and wardrobe.
Nikita also expressed her gratitude to her family and friends, especially her mother, who has always been by her side.
“I will continue to work in my community and wear this title with pride,” she added.
With a bright future, Nikita is excited to use her platform to give back to her community and continue her journey as a law student and model.
