CTHS Visits from Cote d'Ivoire & Belgium - 22 Mar 18

Cape Town High School was privileged to be visited by two international educational teams recently, one from Cote d'Ivoire and another from Belgium. The Belgian group had a information session with our learners about their country and our learners told them about Cape Town. The Cote d'Ivoire group was a French speaking group visiting a English public school.

It was not all work however, and the teams managed to fit in some great social activities including a soccer game and a hike.

Here are some photos. The ones of the Belgian contingent were taken by Tony Reweghs for Haspenvoud International.
