=Johannesburg High School - South Africa=

On 28 January 1971, with Dr B Hudson as headmaster and 300 pupils from std. 6‐ 8, Johannesburg High School opened its doors. In his message to the school at the official opening in September of that year, Dr Van Wik, the Director of education, referred to the parents’ "ideal of having a High school that would be able to provide their sons and daughters with a thorough and modern education and would possess all the necessary facilities and be able to compare with the best in the Province."

The ensuing years ensured that this became a reality. Mr Corbett was appointed as Dr Hudon’s successor in 1982. The pupil enrolment rose to 512 and the playing fields and school grounds began to take shape. By the time Mr Lane became principal in 1984, the school boasted 739 pupils from Std 6 to 10, a library, a swimming pool and the administration block. In 1989 plans for the new hall and gymnasium, science and biology laboratories and the housecraft wing were put into motion.
