Cayla Swart, Cayce Louis Gerber and Christo Gerber from St Helena Bay got their “gees” on by wearing their Bokkie shirts. Cayla said their two-year-old also learned a brand new word and says “bokkies” proudly. “We had a traditional South African Braai with regte boerewors rolls while watching the game.”
