Take a bush school gap year - for only R120, 000

While many parents are desperate to get their children into a university after matric, a Cape Winelands farmer is hoping his son will learn how to track wild animals and identify birds by their call. The fruit and vegetable farmer from Ceres will be forking out R120, 000 to enrol his son at South Africa's first formal bush school, near Upington in the Northern Cape, set to open next year.
