Spring into action
As winter’s chill finally gives way to warmer days, there’s something magical about spring that lifts our spirits and energises our souls. It’s nature’s way of reminding us that fresh starts are always possible.
We’d love to hear about your spring experiences and what makes this season meaningful to you! Share your thoughts and stand a chance to win a R500 Takealot voucher. Competition closes on Friday 14 November 2025.
Tapping into your memories
We enjoyed your trip down memory lane in our previous quiz and thought we’d share a few of your answers.
From a vet to a brain surgeon, a fashion designer, actor and chef, a soccer player and astronaut or a businesswoman, IT specialist, auditor, nurse and policeman – your childhood dreams were all inspiring and ultimately led you here to the AfroCentric family.
Favourite TV programmes ranged from Dragon Ball Z, Tom and Jerry and Pokémon to Knight Rider, The A-team and spine-chilling horror stories around the campfire, while Superman beat Batman in the favourite superhero category by a narrow two votes!
Baggy silver pants, scratchy frills, colour blocking, big sister hand-me downs and a family dressed for a high-fashion jail break – we get why these fashion moments made you cringe!
Your best treats included an ice-cold Apple Munch, roast chicken, mom’s special samp, peanut butter and jam sarmies – and the occasional McDonald’s Happy Meal.
And some of your memories made us laugh out loud too!
“Being chased by chickens when trying to steal their eggs to cook in the playhouse.”
“When I was five, I followed my mom to work on the night shift, taking my three-year-old cousin with me on the train . . . We got lost but luckily a neighbour found us!”
“Making breakfast for my grandparents, only to accidentally put salt rather than sugar in their tea.”
