Preparatory
Welcome from the Preparatory Head, Moeketsi Motsepe
Welcome to the Prep School, where we seamlessly intertwine work and play. Building on the strong foundation laid in the Junior Prep, our Prep School strives to prepare boys for the academic, social, and personal demands of College.
The Prep years are years of exploration. We guide boys in developing the vocabulary to express their emotions with confidence and respect, while instilling the importance of common courtesy — in word and in deed.
Our boys are encouraged to embrace and use technology responsibly as they explore the sciences, humanities, and the arts. Participation in sport is highly valued at Prep. We believe winning is the natural outcome of dedication and consistency, and boys are given ample opportunity to try as many sporting codes as they wish. Through sport and school life, they build grit and resilience — learning to try, to fail, to rise, and to try again; to triumph and remain humble; to be stars who shine brightly in every corner of the Prep School.
In a fast-paced world, we champion outdoor learning, fostering a deep love for the environment and for one another. The love of the Lord is lived out through works of mercy and care for the world around us.
The Prep years are happy and carefree years. Here, boys are allowed to simply be — to grow, to discover, and to enjoy the journey.
We hope to establish and continuously maintain authentic relationships with boys, parents and staff in a nurturing environment where boys learn the value of self-discipline, within a guided context so that they may become the best version of themselves. We believe in having ‘serious fun’ and seek to seize each and every opportunity presented to us daily.
