Thirteen teenagers from high schools across Johannesburg recently spent a week in Argentina together with 400 youngsters from around the globe.
The World Ort/ Scholas Occurentes Youth Summit was held under the auspices of Pope Francis.
With gaining experiences of a lifetime and reflecting on their remarkable interactions, learning opportunities and the incredible friendships forged, the learners sought to pass on their experience to others which resulted with the birth of the Ort SA Youth Club.
The 13 Ort SA Youth Ambassadors hailed from Ivory Park Secondary, Alexandra High, Kwabhekilanga Secondary in Alexandra, King David Linksfield High and King David Victory Park High.
The organisation welcomes all high school learners to join the Ort SA Youth Club. The club will give access to the many World Ort opportunities to meet people from all over the world at virtually and face-to-face to attend interesting talks and workshops.
Community members are advised to look out for the Ort SA career guidance series, opportunities to volunteer for community service hours and more.
