In this weeks Language Excursion of “Youth & Education” we discovered some of the differences between high schools in different neighbourhoods of Cape Town.

We started with Sarepta high school, in Kuilsriver, where we met about 20 pupils. We intented a few interesting discussions about the problems the students face at Serepta and talked about their future perspectives. They were very willing to share their stories with us and inform us of their lives.

On the second Excursion we visited Rustenburg Girls’ high school in Rondebosch. The school itself was very different in appearance than our previous school. The girls warmly invited us into their school offering us tea and milktart. Afterwards, the pupils took us on a tour of the school, and they showed us their personal interests and perspectives on life.

This week was very interesting, experiencing the differences beween schools within Cape Town.
