The Bachurim (students) of the Yeshiva come from Israel for a period of 11 months, mainly from hesder yeshivot.
The Yeshiva provides "a depth and breadth of Torah study for the entire Cape Town community" [3].
It operates a chavruta programme (partnered study) at various synagogues in the city; it participates in and initiates programs throughout Cape Town and has a learning program in a different community every night.
The bochrim also work as madrichim ("counselors") at the Bnei Akiva South Africa summer camp.
