amaWaka Waka

A term used in South African high schools—coined by the Matric Class of 2024—to refer to students born in 2010 during the FIFA World Cup hosted in South Africa. The nickname comes from the tournament’s official anthem, “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)” by Shakira. It’s commonly used to refer to Grade 8 learners of 2024, most of whom were born that year.

Eish, amaWaka Waka were making noise while we were writing.
