About Herzlia High School
About Herzlia High School.
The Space
On the foot of spectacular Table Mountain in Vredehoek, Cape Town, Herzlia High School has a view that’s unmatched. Over and above classroom facilities that support a robust education, the campus is a place where pupils can nurture meaningful friendships, interests and experiences. The grounds are designed to create opportunities for learning and connection, whether as part of the curriculum, sports or during down-time. Upgrades are constantly on the go to make sure that our facilities remain current. Whether your child finds their purpose in the classroom, media centre, Esports lab, Innovation or Aquatics Centre, on the skateboard ramp, gym, golf putting range, Fress Canteen, or all of the above – their High School experience will offer a healthy balance that’s rich in meaning.
The Team
Our teachers know that the teenage years are a deeply complex and incredibly important time in one’s life. Their role, as they walk the High School road with your child, is to support them to success. They do this by having your child’s academic, emotional and social development in mind at all times. Thanks to our optimal teacher-to-pupil ratio, our teachers really get involved and give our pupils individual attention, support, encouragement and care. Our teachers embrace cutting-edge technology and are offered upskilling courses and training workshops to continue their own growth and development.
Academics
We take the concept of “teach a child according to his way” very seriously. Over the years, our teachers have worked tirelessly to create a space where each pupil can reach their potential. And this hard work has paid off. Not only do our pupils enter the world prepared for the challenges and opportunities of life, we’ve also established a reputation as one of the leading schools in the country with phenomenal matric results. Our subjects cater to the interests of our pupils. From Life Science to Drama, Physics, Computers, Technology, Consumer Studies, Art, Music, Accounting, Tourism, History, Hebrew, Jewish Life & Learning, Beit Midrash and more, including FS Maths and English – our pupils can create a path that suits their interests and goals. Our network extends to tertiary institutions locally and internationally, opening doors to those who want to study further.
