Young climate activist Ayakha Melithafa was one of five matric learners to join explorer Riaan Manser on an expedition to Antarctica.
Five lucky 2020 matriculants were chosen to join Manser and a distinguished team on an educational five-day scientific adventure known as the Matrics in Antarctica (MIA) 2020.
After extensive isolation and Covid-19 testing, the group departed on Tuesday 26 January 2021, and returned on Monday 1 February 2021.
Melithafa, who hails from Eerste River, has just completed her matric at the Centre of Science and
Technology (COSAT) in Khayelitsha.
