Excellent Tuition - is
what every parent wants for their child. Independent or private
schools typically boast smaller classes, than their government
counterparts and therefore more individual attention. It comes
at a price though. On average such schooling costs in excess
of ZAR 3,500 per month per child, putting this out of reach
of many parents. For the privileged few this is the way to
go. Attendance to these schools helps build networks during
school and later in life. Most private schools offer excellent
sports facilities, though some focus on other aspects of education.
For the writers taste, a balance of the two is the best solution.
Academia builds intellectual capacity & sport builds character.
It teaches kids to muck in.

Redhill
School
Redhill was founded in 1907, and has
occupied its beautiful park-like campus in Sandton since the
end of the Second World War.
Redhill was one of the first South African independent schools
to become both inter-denominational and co-educational.
Redhill is, uniquely, three schools in one. The Redhill education
is best understood as a continuum. It begins in our Pre-Preparatory
at the age of three, with a focus on development through creative
play, progressing to an emphasis on thinking skills in the Prep.
School and High School, and culminating with successful preparation
for matriculation. Although students may enter Redhill at any
age or grade, more and more are reaping the benefits of the
entire experience.
Redhill is proudly independent. It is controlled by the Redhill
Trust, a non-profit organization made up of prominent members
of the parent body, both past and present.
At Redhill all our pupils and teachers are free to build to
their potential.  |
