Stellenberg Hoërskool

I am just wondering if you admit grade 8 pupils from Brackenfell & what the school fees are for a learner each month?

Racism, Favoritism, Bullying definitely exists at Stellenberg High in this 2022 still. The cultural, genuinely Kind, Friendly English children Gets no opportunities to excel, whether it be onstage or in Leadership Roles. English classes still get taught in afrikaans eventhough its not their first language, depends what mood the teacher is in. When you address the matterm your child will be victimized. Teachers easily blames the whole class for bad behavior. The school rules in Afrikaans. When last have you seen a drama / play done in English. The opportunities only exists for Afrikaans Kids. Sad Reality. Pray for your child's mental health attending Stellenberg High. They never feel good enough to obtain anything. Unless they are white and Afrikaans. The rest just exist and pay school fees.

Parents are shocking with remarks made to other pupils while playing sport i have never heard or witness such bad behavior from parents i will surely see and make sure this goes public and still they are on the sporting fileds every weekend doing the same. Your crieket parents are very bad and if this dont stop i will i sure a proper investigation kids should enjoy themselfs when playing and bad mouthing other pupils from other schools should not be allowed . Shame on your school.

As a current grade 10 learner of Stellenberg High School, I am extremely happy here. I've read all of the reviews written by parents and former students about Stellenberg, and I can confidently say that all of these "issues" and "problems" have been handled/are being delt with. The school has made it it's top priority to ensure that there are no homophobia, sexism, racism, etc. at the school. Obviously, it most likely never truly be solved, or not overnight atleast, but the school has really put in alot of effort to improve the environment for everyone here. Many people forget that these aren't only "problems" at Stellenberg, but in every other high school in South Africa. Stellenberg is busy trying to implement certain things into the school's code of conduct to be more enclusive and fair to the different types of students whom attend the school. Stellenberg's current motto for the year "different flames, one fire" highlights that the school consists of many different types of people, with different backgrounds, beliefs, cultures, races, talents etc. but that we can all come together and stand as one, Stellenberg High School. I've never seen a school putting in this much thought and effort to accomidate students of all types. The school and their student council, are always looking for ways to improve this school. For this year's pride month, they even had educational posters on tv's in the passages explaining the different sexualities and flags what each of them meant. Other than that, the school has many compaines run by the students, like the "Go the extra Smile" compain, which focusses on mental heath and making the people around you smile. They often hand out happy quotes, chocolates or even ice-creams to make someone's day. The school is filled with posters on how to help someone whom is having problems, like a panic attack, for example. The teachers of this school or of the highest standard. The teachers have all done a course which helps them to know how to handle certain situations even better. The school also paid for a complusory educational course on bullying, cyber bullying and online safety which everyone student had to complete. The school is also busy expanding their available activities at school, for the children whom aren't always as sport, cultural or accidemally driven. They have loads of clubs, like photography, a book club, a dance squad, a gaming club, etc. Stellenberg makes me a proud student. I love this school, the teachers, the environment, everything. My heart is forever jade.

Awesome school. My son is now in Grade 10. He is English and not a top sportsman, but enjoys his rugby and is encouraged by the coaches. He is thriving academically and the teachers go out of their way to ensure students challenge themselves. The school has is strict when it comes to discipline and obeying the rules, which is how it should be to prep youngsters for the real world. Highly recommended.
