In Africa, there is an increasing number of people curious about Chinese culture. (CNTV)

Rafeek Louw, a parent, said, "We really liked the feel of the school, the size of the classrooms, as well as whether our children can fit in here or not. Especially, given our religion and things like that. And it was very accommodating to us, our culture and our religion. As well as we wanted to instill the Chinese culture in our children as well, because it gives them a better opportunity going forward."

A male student said, "We look at the business side of you know, where we're gonna be in the future, and obviously Chinese is the future, it's where everyone's going. Where the world is going. So, like if you're venturing into a business or corporate world, or if you're gonna start your own business, you know, having the language behind you is really beneficial for you."

A Chinese student said, "As a Chinese I really excited and I've been very touched."

One student said, "I like that because there's a lot of races, so we can understand different cultures from different countries."

Learning Chinese is very special because our school is very close-knit. So, we can now all communicate in Chinese and we're just like one big family.
