KD schools take Etgar quiz to heart
On Friday October 24, the King David Schools launched the first-ever Etgar quiz on South African shores. Etgar is a stimulating quiz imported from the UK.

Etgar produce a richly illustrated, highly engaging handbook of Jewish general knowledge. The handbook is given to the children and the material is taught to them over the year. Etgar aims to foster Jewish learning in primary schools by creating an exciting, team-based inter-school quiz competition.
We enjoyed a very vibrant and engaging quiz at the Sandton Shul Hall. The grade 6s from King David Linksfield, Sandton and Victory Park, enjoyed an engaging morning. Lots of fun was had by all; there was a wonderful interschool spirit and a huge amount of Jewish general knowledge was gained!
