The HFB students met other high schoolers from Isilimela Comprehensive School and Bellville High School. They grew close with these students throughout the week and on the weekend beach retreat.

The students visited Robben Island, the jail in which Nelson Mandela was held for 18 years, and received a tour from a former political prisoner.
