The Bogrim 1 Hadracha Experience

What’s it all about?

The Bogrim One Hadrachah Experience marks the start your exciting journey to becoming brilliant, confident, thoughtful and inspirational madrichim. Back on the Onrus campsite for six days of learning, relaxation, meeting new people, engaging with the movement's top leadership, campfires, spending time with the Shomrim, listening to top guest speakers, enjoying brilliant musicians, playing paintball in the bush, singing, dancing, taking photos of yourself (again), eating matzah - it's over Pesach! - debate, learn about, love and engage with Israel, South Africa and the world.


A national experience

This mind-blowing experience is about having outrageous fun with your friends from Johannesburg and Cape Town – which includes beach games, paintball and more!


Learning hadrachah skills

In addition practical leadership (hadracha) training and tons of group activities will make sure you come back equipped to begin your journey as madrichim. Lean the dos and taboos of being a maddie, hear your own madrichim’s experiences of hadrachah and learn skills that will last you a life time!


Top class madrichim

Only the most advanced and respected madrichim that the movement can offer are selected for this project and ensure that not only do you meet new people and learn a lot, but come back with a fresh perspective on life.


A unique Habo experience

After a brilliant graduation, it’s time to make your mark on the Bogrim body and meet the rest of your fellow madrichim. Implant your name on the upper leadership of the movement and make the transition from a Shomrim Channich to a Boger. Explore your post-matric options such as Shnat and take a break from the stress of your matric year. Unpack the rebellious history of Habonim by discovering the wealth of knowledge, ideas and amazing things it has done and continues to do.



Your path to Bogrim has begun...
