The Khoisan people were the earliest inhabitants of Southern Africa.

From 1948 to 1994, South Africa was governed by a system of racial segregation and discrimination known as Apartheid.

Nelson Mandela, Steve Biko, Chris Hani and other anti- apartheid activists fought against the system enduring imprisonment and exile.

In 1994, South Africa held its first multicultural elections, with Nelson Mandela becoming president.

South Africa is considered the Cradle of Humankind due to discovery of some oldest hominin fossils and archaeological sites, including the Sterkfontein Caves.

Contemporary South Africa faces challenges including high crime rates, unemployment and economic inequality.

Fathers Day is a day that celebrates fathers and the influence of fathers in societies all over the world. It serves as a reminder of the valuable roles that fathers play in shaping their childrens lives.

There is no set day for Fathers Day but this year it was recently celebrated on Sunday, the 15th June.

People celebrate this day differently and it was exciting getting to hear what the students got up to.

Some students cooked meals for their fathers, others gave gifts and made cards, others did activities with their fathers and they all were happy to spend the day with their fathers.

What did you do to celebrate Fathers Day?
