ABOUT VULA BULA

The Vula Bula resources make learning to read in African languages easy!
Vula Bula is the first graded reading programme in African languages where progression from level to level is based on the phonics of each language.

The name Vula Bula connects with all our African languages:

  • Vula means open in isiXhosa, isiZulu, isiNdebele, Siswati and Tshivenḓa.
  • Bula means open in Setswana, Sesotho and Sepedi.
  • Vula also means speak in Xitsonga.

By opening our books, we hope that children will aspire to read, write, and express their thoughts and feelings, while at the same time open their minds to the pleasure of books and lifelong learning.
