Thank for your response, however I think I have identified it at the Yellow Garden Spider, Argiope aurantia.
Hi, I think this is an Argiope aurantia, aka Yellow garden spider. They are common here in South Africa. Here are some photos: https://www.google.com/search?q=Argiope+aurantia&client=ms-android-samsung-ss&prmd=ivn&sxsrf=ALiCzsbWLA6sFAo8bzzIRL9dQtcJnuT_ug:1665592487337&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjVi7HEj9v6AhVBg1wKHcXEB4MQ_AUoAXoECAEQAQ&biw=384&bih=723&dpr=2.81
