Sporting Noteables
- When the school was built there was only one playing field; the one between the school and hostel. Now the ground adjoining 9th avenue between the school and the river was been leveled, a pavilion built and was one of the most attractive junior school cricket grounds in the country. This was the first school to use a composition wicket and later go on to turf wickets. Many students have gone on later to play for their country and Mr. P.N.F. Mansell for South Africa. Soccer has also produced its great players, notably Bobby Chalmers. The field next to 12th Avenue became a fine rugby ground. Rugby was represented at the highest level by Des van Jaarsveldt and Ronnie Hill as Springboks.
