Hoërskool Garsfontein

By my personal experience I don’t think that it is bad. When it comes to the teachers, most of them behave themselves very well. There is the occasional teacher that wil still yell on you like you are in Primary School, makes you cry and that doesn’t really teach you anything at all. By my experience as a student (being a girl) school life has been more tough on us than on the boys. Equal rights are definitely not the school’s top priority. The school’s top priority is the rugby boys. The rugby and the boys who play rugby are the school’s most important asset. There is a lot of favoritism present when it comes to the boys, especially the rugby boys. Right beneath the rugby boys of the pyramid is the popular girls. Most of them play netball. They are also favorited the most and get a lot of advantages when it comes to school, sport and other benefits along with the boys who are good at rugby. Most of the children here (the more younger, the worse it is) is very unmannered even if the school doesn’t think so. They also don’t handle bullying well. You are often told to get over it or handle it yourself. You often don’t feel heard. The school has a great tuckshop. It has an acceptable range of meals but can be pricy for what you are actually paying for. The environment is nice. It just need more places to sit (benches). We have a wide range of school activities and sports but you only matter if you play rugby. The school culture can be fun at times.

so at this school you've got amazing classes and sport, but if you actuaĺly want to have a good time and not be judged and be w stuck up people i would rather recommend waterkloof/ menlo.

Everyone at the school ia very friendly and well manered, it is very good.
