Each year, in February, YFU South Africa organizes an "exchange project within an exchange year" for our inbound students. This project serves to introduce our inbound students to a cultural environment that is quite unique and very interesting, since it represents a semi-rural way of life in the northern part of South Africa. Seshego is a town outside Polokwane in the Limpopo Province. In the 2 weeks, our students live with hostfamilies and attend the local high school. They also participate and several other activities, including a visit to the local primary school. This year, the local Government of Limpopo was so impressed with the project, that they invited our students to a local hotel where they were treated with a meal and a safari drive.

The project also caught the eye of the media! Have a look at this newspaper article.....
