Muizenberg High School

Muizenberg High School was established in 1898 with the Reverend Richard Rawlinson Vyvan as Headmaster and Miss A. Dunlop as his assistant. The school then consisted of approximately forty pupils ranging from Sub A to Standard 5 (Grade 1 – 7). Since then, the seaside school, with its spectacular views, has grown to a contingent of just over 700 learners and 37 full time staff under the astute leadership of principal Leonie Jacobsen. The SS4LS support programme is facilitated by SS4LS alumni Ashley Fernandez, who has been appointed as a teacher at the school and is currently serving as the head of sports at Muizenberg High. Another SS4LS alumni, Ezryn Van Aswegen, has also been appointed at the school and coaches the ladies cricket team. The assistance provided thus far is in line with the NGO’s three pillar approach, namely Education, Wellbeing and Sport.
