Since your visa has expired, you need to apply for a stay visa first at the local exit and entry administration as soon as possible and then leave China for your home country, then, you may apply for Q visa at the visa center in South Africa since you have two children in China for a new entry to China. The visa fee is ZAR 1,105.
