School Type: Girls

I am so glad my school has a uniquely amazing family atmosphere, unlike any other school.  It is not “go-to-school-go-home”, but rather the whole family gets involved.  St Stithians College remains a country school with an electric atmosphere in the heart of the northern suburbs. 

A co-ordinate school, it provides students with an ideal view of reality while at the same time it develops our confidence in the security of a single sex classroom. Our multi-cultural community is caring and friendly and everybody is welcome no matter who you are. St Stithians, for me, is not just a school – it is a family, the “Saints” family. It is a place where we find the strength to swim together and, eventually, the courage to swim apart.

Our Mission Statement

To fulfil our founders' vision of providing a liberal education with Christian teaching in an effective school which achieves high academic and individual expectations based on international standards and relevant to the entire community of Southern Africa.

Our School

St Stithian's statement of strategic intent, “A South African School making a World of Difference", speaks of our desire to achieve only the best education for our girls in a school that is rooted in the present South African context, that is proud of our South African Heritage and yet is always reaching forward to create a better future. Our local and international exchanges keep our girls stretching and changing themselves for the better and sharing the fruits of that in South Africa.

Our Community Service ensures opportunities where our girls can feel competent in giving to others. Our younger boys and girls and our older boys give us all opportunities to create the best co-ordinate environment where learning can take place in the midst of difference.
