Calls from Zone 1a including South Africa cost $0.49 per minute + $0.35 connection fee. This is more expensive than local SIMs of course, but probably worth it for the convenience.
I haven't texted with mine, but I guess from that link above that it would be 15c to send and 10c to receive. (I'd be surprised about the receive fee, given that calls are free to receive, but the website suggests fees for US/Canada texts.)

That looks good, just so long as she is happy to register the SIM at her SA address - and why shouldn't she?
