Teaching in South Africa at this project involves various aspects of community work and development initiatives that will provide you with a diverse and varied experience, providing a great insight into the lives of underprivileged individuals in Cape Town.


You will spend your time teaching in Simonstown, on the outskirts of Cape Town, whilst also assisting in a number of excellent development schemes, aimed at supporting the disadvantaged children at the school and the wider community.

Destination info

South Africa is the southernmost tip on the African continent, stretching over 2500km along the coast, from Namibia to Mozambique. It is one of the most developing countries on the continent, with very good infrastructure and excellent facilities for travellers.
 

You will spend your time teaching in Simonstown, which is home to the South African Navy. It is located on the shores of False Bay, on the eastern side of the Cape Peninsula. This pretty coastal town is named after Simon van der Stel, an early governor of the Cape Colony. It also consists of Victorian style buildings, quaint streets and walkways that share a fascinating history. In Simonstown, there is also Boulders Beach located a few kilometres to the south where a colony of African Penguins live.


The project is a fifteen-minute minibus taxi ride plus a ten-minute walk to the school. Alternatively, you can catch a train from Fish Hoek to Simonstown. You will be staying in the seaside town of Fish Hoek, a short walk from the beautiful Fish Hoek beach and about a 45-minute drive from Cape Town.

  • Location: Cape Town

Day 1 - Arrive into Cape Town International Airport (airport code CPT)

Today you will be met at the airport and taken to our volunteer house in Fish Hoek. You’ll need to arrive in before 4pm so that you’re all ready for the orientation which kicks off at 5pm. The journey from the airport to Fish Hoek should take around 45 minutes and if you keep your eyes open you might get to see Table Mountain on the way. The orientation will take you through what it’s going to be like at your project, dos and don’ts, how to stay safe and it’s your prime opportunity to ask any questions that you haven’t yet had answered. After the orientation you’ll have an evening meal and some time to relax and prepare before your first day at the project tomorrow.


If you aren’t able to arrange a flight to get you into Cape Town before 4pm then we’d recommend you fly in a day early. We can arrange an early airport pick-up for you including one night’s accommodation, please give us a call for more information.


Day 2 - Introductions at your project

You’ll be up bright and early for your first day at your project. This project is based in Simonstown which is a fifteen minute minibus taxi ride from the accommodation and then a ten-minute walk to the school. You will be looking at catching a mini bus at around 07:15 so be warned! Today you will be introduced to the teachers that you will be assisting and the children too. If you are ready you can get stuck in but you may want to watch for a while and start getting to know the children, you never know their enthusiasm may just be too infectious!

Day 3 to 5 - Getting stuck in

You will be able to get stuck in to your work at the school, in the mornings you will be assisting the teacher and also working with the children on a one to one basis. During lunch and break time you will be assisting in the playground with the safety of the children. Afternoons see you helping with children from another local township as they wait an hour for their transport to arrive, helping them with their homework, playing games and reading. Then it is time for you to walk to your bus stop or if you fancy go to the local mall for some shopping!

Accommodation

During your time in Cape Town you'll be staying in our lovely volunteer house in the small seaside town of Fish Hoek. The house has 4 bathrooms that include western style toilets and hot water. Bedrooms in the house are dormitory style with up to 8 volunteers sharing a room. There are also a number of communal areas including a comfortable lounge with sofas, table where you can eat your meals and a lovely balcony and garden area with BBQ! While in the house you will be responsible for keeping the place clean so please tidy up after yourself, especially in the kitchen.

 

There are lockers in the accommodation where you will be able to store valuable but you will need to bring your own padlock and keys. Additionally you will need to bring your own sleeping bag, pillow case, towels as these are not provided. You should also make sure you bring warm clothes with you, particularly if you are travelling during the South African winter months, when it can get particularly cold.There isn't a washing machine at the house but there is a laundry close by where you can get your clothes cleaned at your own cost.

 

A Supermarket, shops, internet cafe, laundry and bank are all close to the volunteer house so you’ll be able to shop either in your lunch-break or after your days volunteering.

 

Meals

Your time in Cape Town is on a self-catering basis (apart from the evening meal on the first night). There is a kitchen complete with cookers, loads of fridge space, microwave, toaster and other kitchen utensils you can use to cook tasty meals to enjoy in the large dining area. However if you are feeling a little lazy why not order takeaway instead!

 

We recommend that you budget around R600 (South African Rand) per week for groceries, as prices are similar to home. However if you choose to eat out or buy takeaways regularly, this will be more expensive and you will need to budget accordingly.

 

Advice & Safety

Throughout your programmes you will have the support and guidance of the programme co-ordinator and team. You will be provided with competent assistance and help with any questions or advice you may need during your stay.

 

You will be assigned a personal travel advisor who will co-ordinate your programme with you. Feel free to contact them at any time before you go, or when you are on your travels.

 

In addition, you will have access to a 24 hour emergency contact number so you can contact one of our staff at any time should you need to.
