Feeling a bit ‘green’, constantly fighting the urge to scream: ‘Go Bokke!’, and have an extreme appetite for biltong?

Then you might be coming down with the Bok fever that has hit Caxton Local Media and schools across South Africa.

Challenge accepted?

For the duration of the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France, schools are urged to sing their war cries and upload them to TikTok. Remember to include #StrongerTogether, #Caxton4Bokke and your school’s own hashtags.

Backing the Boks

Learners from various schools in the country have taken on the challenge. From Jeppe High School for Boys and Laerskool Bergland to King Edward VII School and Suid-Natal High School – everyone’s getting involved.

The latest schools to take on the challenge (remember, your school can do the same) are Westville Junior Primary School in Durban, Hoërskool Eldoraigne in Pretoria and Springs Boys’ High School in Ekurhuleni.

@caxtonlocalmedia Westville Junior Primary School shows their support of the Springboks in the lead up of the 2023 Rugby World Cup. Caxton Local Medi invites Schools to join in the challenge by sharing a video of their learners cheering the Springboks.
