Where boys become gentlemen with the values of Commitment, Accountability, Respect, Empathy & Service
Potchefstroom High School for Boys, established in 1905, is a boarding school located in South Africa’s North West Province. The school features three boarding houses—Granton (1909), Milton (1910), and Buxton, which was added at a later stage. A fourth house, Barnard, serves as the designated day-boy house. We take pride in nurturing boys into well-rounded young gentlemen who embody our core values of respect, service, and community.
