Service

For over seventy years, “Service and Truth” has been the motto of our school, with our service programme being a vital part of our school. Understanding that people are social and interdependent, our programme aims to move beyond charity, fostering solidarity both within our school and with the community. We focus on sharing resources and collaborating on projects rooted in consistent, ongoing efforts that benefit everyone involved. Acting without the pursuit of reward or recognition, we respond to the fundamental human impulse to be of service to others.

We return that which we have received. We tangibly express gratitude and appreciation in acknowledgement that we have received so much and that there are others who can only wish to be in our shoes.

After their final exam, matrics leave over 120 pairs of shoes down the corridor to symbolise our journey. The peer counsellors offer valuable service to learners who need a kind ear and helping hand. We provide First Aid at sports matches and events. We volunteer at primary schools, providing extra lessons that often evolve into mentoring. We make sandwiches for others. We collect recycling, preventing it from ending up in landfill sites. Library monitors, Blood Peer Promoters, Catering Team, Prom Com and Impact team all offer special services in their respective fields. We are very proud of the culture of helping others and reaching out to the broader community.
