The Afrikaans Literature exam will focus on set books and poetry.
One of the books the grade 12s will be tested on is their knowledge and understanding of Afrikaans book Krismis van Map Jacobs by Adams small.
Since the loss of class time due to the Coronavirus pandemic the ArtsCape Theatre started an initiative, as part of its flagship Artscape Schools Arts Festival, where they broadcasted the setbook on radio and YouTube.
With the help of the education department’s subject advisor they were able to break down the book theoretically so that the pupils understand what is about, the themes and characters.
