St John's College

The College provides an expansive and holistic approach to education for boys from Grade 8 to matric.

It fosters and promotes mutual respect, self-discipline, and confidence, and our boys are given every opportunity to prepare themselves for the world beyond St John’s.

The College operates on a house system and is divided into eight houses: four boarding houses — Nash, Hill, Clayton and Hodgson — and four day-boy houses — Thomson, Alston, Clarke and Fleming House.

Each house has its own common room and Housemaster’s study. Boarders have their own well-equipped cubicles and seniors have their own rooms.

The Housemaster is assisted by an elected Head of House and House Prefects and members of staff who act as House Tutors and maintain close contact with the boys under their care.

Two full-time chaplains and a educational psychologists are also available to meet with our boys and parents.
