They were part of more than 50 Jewish school pupils who took part in the annual quiz sponsored by the South African Zionist Federation and Israel Centre. Held at Beyachad in Joburg on 30 October, the quiz included three rigorous and nail biting rounds for the top ten students, at which they were questioned on Israel’s history, politics, arts, and culture.

The final three contestants were then given two minutes in which to answer “rapid fire” questions, which determined the winners.

Finalists included students from King David Linksfield, Victory Park, and Torah Academy Girls High school. Prizes were sponsored by EL AL SA, The Core Group, and Think Ahead.
