Riaan Manser is taking another group of Matriculants to Antarctica on a once in a lifetime expedition!

The ‘Matrics in Antarctica‘ competition provided every single matric student in South Africa with the chance to enter to become one of the five lucky matrics to go on a five-day scientific adventure to Antarctica.

On entry, participants had to answer the question: “What will exploration of the Antarctic continent do to help us preserve a greener, more sustainable existence on our planet?”

The study tour will be led by Manser and a distinguished team of professors from the University of Stellenbosch.

Manser joins Good Things Guy Brent Lindeque to talk about the exciting programme, what the participants can look forward to and how to apply next year. Click on the play button below to listen.
