We are 100 Days Smarter!

There can be no greater gift than that of giving one’s time and energy to help others without expecting anything in return - Nelson Mandela

Mandela Day reflects our commitment to community service and the values that Nelson Mandela embodied.

Last weekend, the Grade 6A and 7A hockey teams embarked on a journey to St. Anne’s for their annual U13 hockey festival.

Mandela Day serves as a significant day in the South African calendar, and we at St Stithians take immense pride in celebrating Nelson Mandela's legacy through acts of kindness on 18 July. This year, we held our second collaborative Mandela Day initiative involving all three schools: Junior Prep, Boys' Prep, and Girls' Prep.

Just before half term, we were delighted to welcome the arrival of a delegation of twelve students and two teachers from fellow Round Square school, Ballarat Grammar, from just outside Melbourne, Australia.

Last Wednesday, the Grade 5s at Girls' Prep enjoyed a special morning celebrating their journey and future aspirations at the inaugural "Counting Back and Dreaming Forward" event.

The Matric Dance held on 28 June 2024 was an enchanting event, with Mears Hall transformed into a magical winter wonderland.

In honour of Mandela Day, our GC students, parents and College Ops Dept collaborated with Leratong Primary School in Orlando East, for what we are calling "Mandela Month". Promoting reading, through the donation of books and the creation of educational toys, the opening of the library this Mandela Day was special!

Proud moments at the Roedean Music Competition, highlighting our school's commitment to fostering musical excellence.

Every year in June, the Boys' Prep hosts a service in our Chapel to honour our dads and other important male figures in our boys' lives, and this year was no different.
