FunDza is excited to announce the 10 winners of the Poem to Home Writing Challenge that took place on FunDza’s WhatsApp portal in February 2021.

For this challenge, entrants were asked to write a poem dedicated to their home using their senses to guide them. We received so many wonderful poems about the smells, sights, sounds, tastes and feelings of home, making the judges’ final decision a difficult one.

As with all of our WhatsApp Challenges, each of our winners won a little bit of airtime.

Look out for our next WhatsApp challenge going live on 24 February 2021!
