Sawubona TSiBA strives for transformation, diversity, access and inclusivity in education and also in daily life. For this reason we have included more than just the English language in our 2016 Annual Report to reflect and celebrate South Africa’s Hello rainbow nation.

English is the 4th most commonly spoken first language (9.6%) in South Africa, but it remains the dominant Lumela language in government and the media because it is the most understood in the majority of urban areas. The most commonly spoken 1st language is actually Zulu (23%), Hallo followed by Xhosa (16%) and Afrikaans (14%). South Africa’s 11 official languages are: Afrikaans, English, Ndebele, Northern Sotho, Sotho, Swazi, Tsonga, Tswana, Ndaa Venda, Xhosa and Zulu. “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his Avuxeni language that goes to his heart.” Nelson Mandela Welcome Contents 2016 to TSiBA
