Besters Calling Cape Town Campaign
What are we doing?
At 4am, on the 10th of March 2024, Father and son, along with other Calling Education ambassadors will jump into the ice cold water off Robben Island and begin their 7.5km their swim to shore. From there, they will shake off the shivers by jumping onto a bicycle and riding the Cape Town Cycle Tour - 109km with roughly 1200 metres of elevation.
Seeing that the legs will have warmed up by that stage, they will then run off to accomplish the 3 peaks challenge: Devil's Peak, Table Mountain and Lion's Head - 50km with 2700 metres of elevation.
This will all be completed in one day, with a 24 hour time limit
Why are we doing what we are doing?
We will be completing this challenge to raise funds for Calling Education.
Calling Education has the audacious vision of developing the most relevant model of providing top-quality education to learners from low-income communities for South Africa. This vision led to Calling Academy, an all-boys high school, being established in 2018 outside Stellenbosch. The early success of the school spawned a co-ed Calling Academy, established in Kroonstad in January 2022.
Apart from running these schools, our mission includes providing thought leadership in the field of low-fee education and raising the bar in this context of South African education.
