Steenberg’s featured holes are the 7th and 14th, the 7th has an island type green with sand surrounding it and in the background is the Devils peak mountain which is easily a beautiful distraction. The 14th hole boasts the single biggest green in South Africa which is surrounded by bunkers, if you make the green there is no guarantee of par with the sure mass of the green and its undulating greens. Royal Cape Golf Club: Cape Town The Royal Cape is over 100 years old is the oldest golf club in South Africa, it’s hosted the SA Open ten times. The course is flat but the fairways are narrow and surrounded by tree lines despite it being flat the coastal conditions almost creates a windy course all year round and a tough challenge, the bunkers are big and a challenge and the numerous water hazards don’t make it any easier. It is arguably South Africa’s most famous club because of its History. Fancourt Golf & Leisure Resort: George Fancourt embodies a flawless fusion of leisure and world-class golfing. With all three of its golf courses ranked among Golf Digest’s top 20 courses in the country. Fancourt’s golf courses were designed by a dynamic team spearheaded by Gary Player and the estate’s owner, Dr Hasso Plattner. Recently voted among the World’s 10 Best Golf Resorts on CNNGo, Fancourt has supplemented its courses with its own Golf Academy, practice facilities and every modern convenience, allowing golfers to immerse themselves in the five-star Fancourt experience. Email enquiries to: [email protected] Instagram: Freewalker_exclusive_golf www.freewalker.co.za Facebook: Freewalker Adventure Travel Humewood Golf Course: Port Elizabeth Found in the coastal city of Port Elizabeth, the golf course is a genuine seaside links, with wide and undulating fairways, fast greens and thick coastal bush. A round is a must for any golfer visiting the 'Friendly City' of Port Elizabeth. Over the last 25 years, 4 of the par 5's have been redesigned to par 4's (ie. the 4th, 8th, 10th and 13th) and are now regarded amongst the most challenging in South Africa. Information on South African Golf Tourism: South Africa is currently ranked 14th in terms of the world’s most popular golfing destinations, while the only African country to make it into the Top 10 list was Morocco. The opportunity to package golf with other experiences is something that also sets SA apart, for example combining golf with a safari, sightseeing, cultural tours, wine and food, as well as the abundant landscape variations ranging from forest, mountains, pristine coastline to wildlife regions. Safari game drives for family and groups tours are very popular, as well as spa and wellness treatments for women which is a sought after combination at the moment. Golf groups tend to range between 4 and 12 individuals, and length of stay between 10 and 14 days. Another key factor is SA’s favourable exchange rate, which allows for excellent value for money when compared with competitor destinations. Where else can you play golf with wild animals roaming on the golf course? Hotels and accommodation used: Freewalker will book all 4 & 5 star hotels and safari lodges.

  • South Africa Yearbook 2012/13
    SOUTH AFRICA YEARBOOK 2012/13 Land and its p Land and its people Situated at the southern tip of Africa, South Africa boasts an amazing variety of natural beauty and an abundance of wildlife, birds, Land and its p plant species and mineral wealth. In addi- tion, its population comprises a unique diversity of people and cultures. The southern tip of Africa is also where archaeologists discovered 2,5-million-year- old fossils of man’s earliest ancestors, as well as 100 000-year-old remains of modern man. The land Stretching latitudinally from 22°S to 35°S and longitudinally from 17°E to 33°E, South Africa’s surface area covers 1 219 602 km2. According to Census 2011, the shift of the national boundary over the Indian Ocean in the north-east corner of KwaZulu-Natal to cater for the Isimangaliso Wetland Park led to the increase in South Africa’s land area. Physical features range from bushveld, grasslands, forests, deserts and majestic mountain peaks, to wide unspoilt beaches and coastal wetlands. The country shares common bound- aries with Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland, while the Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho is landlocked by South African territory in the south-east. The 3 000-km shoreline stretching from the Mozambican border in the east to the Namibian border in the west is surrounded by the Atlantic and Indian oceans, which meet at Cape Point in the continent’s south- western corner. Prince Edward and Marion islands, annexed by South Africa in 1947, lie some 1 920 km south-east of Cape Town.

  • Exploring Health and Healthcare Systems in South Africa
    IPE 3050: PUBLIC HEALTH AND HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS IN SOUTH AFRICA Professor Robert Bensley, PhD [email protected] 269-716-2301 Description: The proposed travel study course will focus on current health promotion and healthcare issues in South Africa, especially within the Nelson Mandela Metropol in the Eastern Cape. South Africa is currently under extreme healthcare duress, leading the world in HIV infection and experiencing a host of other public health related factors, including poverty, violence, alcoholism, and HIV-related infections. The country has experienced great strides following a long history of segregation associated with Apartheid. However, public health systems, including healthcare, continue to be a disparity for cultures within South Africa. Much of this is related practices that evolved due to Apartheid, however, rich cultural traditions also play key factors in how native populations approach preventative health and healthcare. One of the major goals of the US Healthy People 2020 objectives for the nation focuses on eliminating health disparities among US populations. The proposed program is designed to not only provide students with a global understanding of the complexities that exist within international health practices, but also serve as a platform for providing a deeper understanding of the consequences of health disparities as it relates to our own cultures. This course will include a series of formal and informal meetings with different public health and healthcare individuals and groups, visits to health and healthcare institutions, cultural activities and immersion, hands-on service learning involvement, and group discussions. In particular, students will be exposed to a number of healthcare practitioners, personnel from public health and non-profit centers and clinics, university-based wellness peer helpers, and traditional healers.

    Global Education Education Global S AFRICA OUTH GRAHAMSTOWN, GRAHAMSTOWN, (CGE) for Center HOBART AND WILLIAM SMITH COLLEGES SMITH WILLIAM AND HOBART ACCOMMODATIONS Students will live alongside South African students in supervised and maintained residences located on the secure, self- contained Rhodes University campus. Note that most halls of residence house only men or only women. The residences are clustered into groups that share a common dining hall promoting community and fellowship while offering inexpensive and balanced meals. There is no “meal plan” per se but a pay-as-you-go system. You may also choose to take meals off campus at area restaurants. EXCURSIONS This program focuses more on “living” South Africa than in promoting a tourist experience. Nevertheless, an orientation session is offered each semester which includes visits to sites in Grahamstown and in the region of the Eastern Cape. Port Elizabeth is within easy reach by public transportation for the occasional urban weekend experience. The university provides students interested in travelling further afield with links to area travel agencies and group tour organizations. Students who join Rhodes U societies such as the mountain club will also have the opportunity to hike and camp. All students have an East- er break when they can travel together in small groups to more distant locales such as Cape Town, the Drakenburg Mountains and other areas of interest. GOING ABROAD WITH THE CGE Students will be charged standard HWS tuition and fees, room fees and a $550 administrative fee. This will cover credit for a four-course semester, housing and all course-related expenses, including airport pick-up for those arriving on the designated group flight and transport to service sites for those enrolled in the service program.

  • WE DON't WANT NO EDUCATION* by Roseinnes Phahle
    WE DON'T WANT NO EDUCATION* By Roseinnes Phahle On the weekend of the 12th April 1980, about 100 pupil delegates from schools in the Cape Flats district of Cape Town met to discuss their grievances and make demands to the govern­ ment. The pupils issued an ultimatum to the government to meet their demands before the end of the month. But by Tuesday of the following week more than 60,000 pupils in and around Cape Town began a boycott of the schools. The pupils, aged between 13 and 18, were led by a Committee of 81 (originally 61) which they had elected to represent all the Cape Town schools partici­ pating in the boycott action. By the end of the first week the boycott had spread to Johannesburg. In the next eight weeks it was· to involve at least 100,000 pupils at any one time, and was to remain in force without final resolution in many parts of the country some three or more months after it started in Cape Town. The boycott action spread to all the other major urban centres such as Pretoria, Durban, Bloemfontein, and Port Elizabeth; and to the mining towns Boksburg, Kimberley, and Randfontein; and to numer­ ous small towns such as Middleburg, Cradock, and Grahamstown in the rural areas. Not even the "independent" Bantustans escaped the action of the pupils. Two thousand pupils in Qwaqwa, a rural Bantustan town, joined the boycott in its fifth week. Black university students at all the bush colleges boycotted their lectures and organised protest marches to lend consider­ able support to the pupils' action.
