And our three groups are off!! This year we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Oakhill Odyssey, and this was marked at the sendoffs with a special voice note shared by Riaan van Straten, who founded this remarkable adventure in 2012. Our Grade 10s can look forward to traversing almost 400km on foot, by bike and kayak. What a privilege to be able to explore the magnificent natural environment of the Garden Route and Langkloof, with its mountains, forests, semi-desert, lakes, rivers and beaches. We certainly live in one of the most beautiful parts of South Africa!
