Rachel Kolisi beams with pride as Liphelo joins matric class of 2026

Rachel Kolisi is beaming with pride as her eldest daughter enters the final chapter of her high school journey. 

The mother of four recently took to Instagram to celebrate Liphelo Madlingozi. Liphelo, who is the younger sister of Springbok captain Siya Kolisi, recently celebrated a milestone achievement after being inducted into the matric class of 2026. 

Sharing the moment with the rest of her followers, Rachel posted a gallery of pictures of the celebration. 

“Induction day for my girl. I can’t believe we’re at matric already, remember her starting grade 1 like it was yesterday! So proud of you,” she captioned.

Rachel’s comment section was later filled with congratulatory wishes from friends and family who wished Liphelo well on her academic endeavors.  

“Rachel and her eldest daughter. You did that mama. Congratulations to your family,” one user commented. Another added: “What an inspiring woman. Well done mama, a job well done.” 

Liphelo is the second person in the Kolisi household to be a matric learner in recent years. Her older brother Liyema matriculated in 2022. 

Siya and Kolisi adopted the siblings in 2014, just five years after their mother passed away in 2009. 

In a heartfelt social media post, Rachel reflected on 10 years since welcoming them as her legal children.
