Thousands of children in UK schools are getting the chance to chat to pupils at a school in Soweto, South Africa.
The link-up is part of a day marking a famous protest by black school kids in South Africa about the way they were being taught, which ended in rioting.
Thirty years on Soweto pupils are talking about what it's like living and going to school in South Africa now.
Children at Hesketh Fletcher CofE High in Wigan will also share lessons with Phefeni School via a live link-up.
All day on Wednesday there will be live broadcasts from the two schools, going out on the BBC News 24 TV channel and on the BBC News website.
The aim of the link-ups is to show how life has changed for people living in Soweto, as well as the differences between school life there and in the UK.
