Super Mornings start with Nutrific! Super Inside, Super Outside, Super You! The Nutrific story began back in the 1920s in Australia. In 1996 Alpen Food Co.

Businessman Bennison Osbourne had always dreamt of creating the perfect breakfast cereal and in 1928 he came up with an almost perfect recipe. His popular wholegrain wheat biscuit quickly found its way onto millions of breakfast tables. In 1932 Bennison and his partners arrived in the United Kingdom, brimming with ambition, and after a few tweaks to the original recipe, they created Weetabix. They found a home for the factory in Burton Latimer where the heart of the Weetabix Company remains to this day. Weetabix is currently the U.K.’s number one selling, most trusted and most recommended breakfast cereal, as well as one of Britain’s most iconic brands. The mills at Burton Latimer export to more than 80 countries around the world. began making the very first Nutrific biscuits using identical product recipes at its production facilities in Cape Town to those used by the parent company in the U.K. A highly versatile breakfast option, Nutrific has become a firm favourite in many South African households. Hot or cold, sweet or savoury, Nutrific is the wholegrain, whole food staple that belongs in every kitchen.

Different traditions. Shared humanity.

Meet Qadira Hendricks, the second of our five Heritage Day winners.

Through the Athaan, Eid mornings, family meals and the lessons she passes on to her son, Qadira celebrates a South African Muslim heritage grounded in faith, family, generosity and kindness.

Her story reminds us that our different cultures, languages, religions and traditions do not have to divide us. They enrich the country we share - and around a table filled with food and love, we often discover just how much we have in common.

Qadira has won 1,000 Nutrific breakfasts for an Educare of her choice, helping more children begin their mornings nourished and ready for the day ahead.

Turn up the sound and hear her story in her own words. 💛

This is the second of five remarkable stories. Keep watching as they unfold.

The laptops and screens donated to Ulwazi Educare are doing more than supporting classroom lessons.

They are also bringing movement, music and joy into the school day.

Through the iRainbow programme, the children are able to follow along with dance and movement activities - learning rhythm, coordination, confidence and self-expression while having a wonderful time together.

It was such a joy to see the same technology used for both structured learning and active play.

From insect lessons to dance sessions, these tools are helping create a richer, more engaging classroom experience for the children at Ulwazi.

And as we continue feeding Ulwazi daily, our bigger dream remains clear: to help set up a full computer class where the children can keep learning, practising and growing.

Because stronger mornings can lead to brighter days - in every sense.

Her heritage is alive - in these girls, in this dust, in this dance.

Meet Mpho Prince Sephaphathi, the first of our five Heritage Day winners.

A proud Motswana woman from Bojanala, Mpho doesn’t simply preserve her heritage - she puts it into action. Through Setswana dance and the values of Botho and Ubuntu, she gives local girls a place to belong, a reason to feel proud and a powerful connection to who they are.

Her story reminds us that heritage is not only what we inherit. It is what we use to protect, guide and inspire the next generation.

Mpho has won 1,000 Nutrific breakfasts for an Educare of her choice, helping more children in her community begin their mornings nourished and ready for the day ahead.

Last year, Nutrific donated laptops, screens, printers and free Wi-Fi to the classrooms at Ulwazi Educare in Delft - the Educare centre we are proud to support with daily breakfasts.

On a recent visit, we saw those tools being put to beautiful use. In this lesson, the children are learning all about insects through the iRainbow programme - watching, listening, asking questions and discovering the world in a new way.

These computers are helping bring valuable lessons into the classroom, giving young learners access to educational content that supports curiosity, language, understanding and confidence.

Even more exciting, the children also get the opportunity to practise on the computers themselves - an important step towards our bigger goal of helping Ulwazi establish a full computer class at the school.

Because a Super Morning is not only about filling little tummies.It is about opening little minds too.

Made for School Mornings.

Some mornings require more curiosity. Especially with a long week ahead.

Nutrific is a source of iron, an essential mineral that supports the transport of oxygen around the body and contributes to healthy cognitive function.

Because when young minds have a long day of learning ahead, breakfast should help prepare them for more than simply reaching the school gate.

Feed their curiosity. Fuel their potential.

Start Strong. Stay Steady.

Some Days Just Keep Going

Spring brings more than warmer mornings.

It brings sports bags at the door, muddy shoes in the passage, water bottles to fill, uniforms to find, and children who still need energy long after the school bell rings.

That’s why a strong start matters.

Nutrific is high in Vitamins B1, B2 and B3, which help the body release energy from food, and is a source of iron, which helps carry oxygen through the body. It is also high in fibre, helping keep you feeling fuller for longer.

For bodies and minds with more to do after the bell.

Start strong before the day runs long.

Some mornings feel like a relay.
Lunchbox passed. Laces tied. Bag zipped. Keys grabbed. Coffee secured. Out the door.
That’s why a strong start matters.

Nutrific is high in fibre to help keep you feeling fuller for longer, with B vitamins B1, B2 and B3 to help release energy from food, and iron to help carry oxygen through the body.

One strong start. Many moving parts.

Super Mornings start with Nutrific.
