Hercules

This is such a horrible school,the bullying there is tremendous,the principal is barely around but when he is ,he only focuses on the pupils hairstyles and how they wear instead of the education system ,the children are failing rapidly the amount of children in my school that want to change school is alotttt ,the classes… are falling apart rapidly the chairs are broken ,the tables are also broken, teachers hit learners for just sleeping in class
and the amount of racism there is scary ,and we have a black principal and what does the principal do about this…NOTHING
the food there is horrible the food is moldy they feed children food that’s expired ,there’s no order teachers don’t even come to classes anymore they hand out 2 weeks work and expect you to finish it within 2 days ,the sports teams are falling apart ,the netball attire is horrible the netball balls are flat ,the chess team hasn’t even been to matches ,the football team is worse they don’t even have goal posts ITS TERRIBLE PARENTS ,they can’t buy proper gears for sports but they have money for 4 buses…okay
Overall Hercules is a terrible school and has fallen apart if you’re thinking of taking your kids there DON’T !THEY’LL END UP KILLING THEMSELVES BECAUSE OF THE BULLYING THERE,THAT IS NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY
ye,let that sink in
if you want your child to suffer mentally ,take them to hercules ,but ye man thats jus t my personal experience with hercules
DONT TAKE YOUR KIDS TO HERCULES ,FOR THEIR OWN WELLBEING
STAY AWAY FROM HERCULES ,STAY AWAY I REPEAT STAY AWAY !!!
l will be back in 2 years time when lm in matric to state whether it has improved or degraded

Hoerskool Hercules

It's a good school but the problem is we change register class a lot of times and as we change register classes we change some teachers and it gets me as a student confused and I cannot concentrate on my school work

My school experience

It's one of the best schools in pretoria

I am a learner at the school and I'm proud to be in the school with excellent teachers and the greatest principle one could ever have 😊
The atmosphere is filled with both black and white children who lead with integrity 🎈
