The best school in the world
This school is the best school that you can ask, for being a girl's high girl is something that you will never regret in your life trust me I'm only a grade 8 learner this year and I'm already enjoying myself even though you have to greet the whole 24 hours trust me it will first be annoying but soon you are going to love it like it's your own home so what I'm recommending to the future girls that want to come, come to the school it's the perfect place to be in trust me this place is a safe space to be and believe me when I say that. I would rate the school a ♾️/10

Lack of feedback
Frustrated with the lack of response regarding placement for 2024. Loved the school when we attended an open day, however the lack of professionalism I am experiencing.....it's questionable. I have been sent from pillar to post, no one can account or respond. We are now promised feedback on the 28th of November! Ridiculous.

Hostel Life
As someone that lived in hostel I could never recommend that tp someone else. The food is often below standard and something we have tried to bring attention. I remember once finding a fly in our table's salad bowl. Another table a literal coach crawl out their meatballs. Another morning there were maggots in the oatmeal while another table had an cooked sausage amongst the other sausages. I don't what i would have done without 2 minute noodles and popcorn.

Best decision ever
The school allowed me to grow into a beautiful young lady who I could say that I am proud of. It is an accepting environment for all and it gives you boundless opportunities to discover your passions. The friendships and the sisterhood last forever and I will forever be grateful to the school for helping me grow into a diamond.

Unfortunately...
As a black scholar I found it difficult to accept some of my natural features because of the environment they enforced. I cannot even begin to count how many times I was told to "tame my hair" or hear that one of my peers were compared to Madusa. There were and hopefully are some good teachers but that never changed the situation for some of us even when the issues were brought up to management.

The high school for girls Potchefstroom
The most remarkable school. This school provides you with endless opportunity to discover new passions, develop as an individual and discover your true self. Very academically orientated. Truly the best decision I have ever made.
