This is the nicest video I have ever watched. My joy is seeing our girl Chelsea this happy and excited and she already made more friends on the very first day. This girl is got it. I used to think she was an introvert but I see she coming out. It’s beautiful to watch. I would recommend that she takes Zulu. She will enjoy it and it will help her to easily communicate with her peers and she will learn a lot about culture which will make her stay here more beautiful. About students getting up to greet teacher when they walk in, it’s a sign of respect and it’s a culture that is preserved in our school. I am watching for the second time and I feel this video is too short. You should have let the kids continue. This is an unfinished business , you still owe us 😂.I can’t wait for part 2 ❤

Zulu/ IsiZulu was a good choice for the girl, would be better for the boy too. Not because I speak IsiZulu but it is the most widely spoken language in South Africa. Most significantly Zulu is an indigenous (South) African language and many other languages are dialect to it. Meaning learning Zulu translate to fluency in Xhosa/ IsiXhosa, Ndebele/ IsiNdebele and Swati SiSwati (ESwatini Kingdom). Much significance!!!

What are you talking about? Afrikaans is in the top 3 of the most spoken languages in SA (Zulu, Xhosa, Afrikaans) and this very accurate given our Apartheid history. Alot of our people worked in Farms and as Domestics and had to learn the language of their Employer, even today you still get alot of black people who speak Afrikaans more fluently than English because of this fact. Also in alot of Private schools and the old "Model C" schools, for many years, the only language offered beside English was Afrikaans. There were no African languages offered in those schools until a few years ago and as such alot of the young generation learned the language through schooling. These two aspects are the contributing factors as to why Afrikaans is in the top 3 of the Most spoken languages in SA.

It's not about hating but about being functional and practical. IsiZulu is spoken by 24% of the population which makes it the most spoken and understood language in the country and is related to the next most spoken language which is isiXhosa at 18%. Between the two of them, these languages have the largest numerical and geographical spread of all languages in the country. Zulu is also related to other smaller spoken languages like Swati and Ndebele.If you speak and understand si Zulu, you can communicate with every black person in the country. Afrikaans does come in third with 10% of the population speaking it.

I'm a South African living in the UK. I just discovered your channel. I enjoyed this session so much. It's great that your children are experiencing such great support from their peers. I went to a public school and the rules were equally strict. As a family, I'm sure you'll have more wonderful experiences. Welcome home. Sending you love from afar. ❤

I can’t believe they go to the school I used to go to last year (this makes me miss the school). I hope they have fun because that school can be really fun. Sending love 🤍

WoW, what amazing experiences on the 1st day of school in South Africa. It’s so amazing to hear about warm reception, the kids received from Mzansi(South Africa) kids and teachers. I a very proud of fellow South Africans for displaying this wonderful God given gift of “UBUNTU”. Such amazing gift is being carried over by our kids, something which bring smile to us as we see these precious african American children beaming with beautiful smiles. It was very exciting to see the girl very happy and in high spirits. I just pray that this joy & kindness continuous as I really feel soooooooo happy when I see african Americans enjoying South Africa. We love their beauty, warm, amazing accent & everything about them & very excited to see them living with us. THESE KIDS STORIES MADE MY DAY TODAY! I’M SO HAPPY. WE LOVE YOU BEAUTIFUL FAMILY & MAY THE LORD CONTINUE WITH HIS ABUNDANT BLESSINGS UPON YOUR LIVES MORE & MORE IN YOUR NEW HOME HERE AT MZANSI. WE LOVE YOU!

Their experience is healing to us. I don't know how else to express the joy they bring when they are living their best life in the land of their ancestors. It feels like a personal victory. @@sandindamae.iwantmetowin5652

I'm Ugandan and I've always wanted something to help me have a South African experience. This might be it.
