South African College High School Cape Town

Our Mission Statement reads as follows; “The South African College High School seeks to promote excellence within an all-round education, to prepare boys to play a constructive role as compassionate, thinking individuals in society”.

By way of elaboration we enable our boys to achieve excellent academic, sporting and cultural results and develop those personal attributes and qualities that will help guide them on their journey through life as mature, confident, courteous, unselfish gentlemen with the highest set of moral values.

In a nutshell, SACS Men are enthusiastic, energetic, committed, friendly, helpful lads who aspire to excellence in all spheres of school life- academic, sport and culture. They also realise that the TEAM is more important than the individual and that team-spirit is an integral component of a happy and fulfilling education at SACS.



SACS is the oldest high school in South Africa, founded in September 1829. It is arguably the most magnificent setting at the foot of Table Mountain and Devils peak. The school prides itself on the balanced education it provides, the world-class facilities on offer, the fact that SACS men strive for excellence in all spheres of school life and that it places a strong emphasis on high moral values.
