    I agree with Range. Michaelhouse is a brilliant school. I will be going there in grade8, in 2 years. Patrick Lambie did choose Michaelhouse over all the schools in the top 10 list on this page. So if he turned out so good why is Michaelhouse not on the top 10 list here?

  13. Range says

    hold lets get serious here..michaelhouse should be up there in the top 5 wtf kind of list is this hey if you disagree just ask patrick lambie youngest bok going to the world cup..please is this a rugby based survey grey college on top what a joke..sort this website out

    Michaelhouse is the best school is South Africa. It is awesome. I wish to go there in grade 8. Everwhere when people say boarding school people think Michaelhouse. P.S my name may strangly resemble blackberrymessenging.

  15. Luu says

    all of you are talking absolute nonsense. the best school in South Africa HAS to be Grey College – because of its excellent sporting, cultural AND academic fascilities its a shame i couldnt go there, cause its THAT hard to get accepted. other promotable schools such as Eunice, St. Stithians & St. Dominics College are SUPPOSED to be nominated. its bonkers they arent even on the list…

  16. Handz Of God says

    I happened to go to St. Michael’s d.s.b(Michael House) myself…True that it is the 2nd most expensive in the country, after Hilton College but it is indeed have the most excellent academic record about the others.

  18. Ash says

    Michaelhouse in KZN is amazing! Why they are not in the Top Ten I don’t know. Also where are Kingsmead College and Roedean? They are the Top Girl Schools in JHB and two of the best schools in South Africa. Their academic results are fantastic, they having amazing facilities and are known for producing outstanding young women. They, along with MHS, are internationally renowned schools. They should definitely be there.

  21. Brody says

    Finally! Someone agrees with me! Michaelhouse is the best. It is great in every field. In academics, sport, music, facilities. If anyon agrees with me post something here. Oh, my friend would also like to nominate Kearsney College. But both him and I think Michaelhouse is best!

  22. JJ says

    I love Michaelhouse! It is defintly the best school in South Africa. How is Greys College no.1? Why is Michaelhouse not there? It is the most prestigious school in South Africa. It has a book based on it for crying out loud! It should be in the top ten. I Love Michaelhouse!

  23. Brody says

    Michaelhouse! It is like the best school in South Africa. Someone back me up on this! Go strong all Michaelhouse people. I love Michaelhouse!!!

  24. Andrea says

    A “rich” school = A “good” school?? Not!
    Paarl Boy’s High and Paarl Girl’s High

  26. Noluthando says

    Jeppe high school for boys???? Come on… Parktown High School for gilrls was supposed to be No1. Or atleast Crawford

  31. rony2 says

    Rustenberg High school for girls should have been on this list. They have consistently produced some the finest academics and sports people in the country.

  32. BR says

    Westerford High School in Cape Town consistently produces top students and offers a full academic and extra-curricular programme whilst maintaining its status as a government school. Top of the list for sure.

  35. ian heaton says

    It does not matter which school is top of the pile , it is down to each person to make a sucess of their lives. Schooling only gives you some of the tools to achive your goals. St.Stithians old boy.

  36. thecap says

    MichaelHouse does have some AMAZING facilities ! But they don’t really excel as much when it comes to overall media coverage …I would put Kersney College on that list …If anything they have A LOT of HEART ! Both musically and on the sports grounds ! !

  39. sirX says

    guys come on!!!!!! academics wise or anything else for that matter everyone knows Klofies is better than Affies!!!! Where is Hoerskool Waterkloof in that list of yours???
    And i agree with John. Michaelhouse is also one of Mzansi’s top schools

  40. Casey says

    St Alban’s College all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!! No doubt.

    They might not be the most expensive but their priorities are straight, more so than any other school in South Africa, especially after the steroids episode and Sunday Time article and their response, and the 702 interview with David O’Sullivan. Follow the links:
    * Article: http://www.timeslive.co.za/sport/rugby/article1090811.ece/Steroid-scourge-rages-in-school-rugby
    * Response in school: http://www.stalbanscollege.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Response-to-Sunday-Times-story-on-use-of-Steroids-from-the-Headmaster-30-May-2011-2-2.pdf
    * Radio interview: http://www.stalbanscollege.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/talkradio.m3u
    If you can’t find the last two, visit http://www.stalbanscollege.com. The link should still be up there.

    It takes a school with vision to prepare a young man for life.

  43. Sae says

    St Alban’s College!!! By far the best private school in Pretoria. It should be on the list of top 10 schools in SA

  44. John says
