Our High School Prize-giving was a wonderful evening of celebration as we came together to recognise the achievements, dedication and contributions of our pupils throughout the year. The evening celebrated the four pillars of Felixton College – Academics, Sport, Culture and Service – recognising pupils who have worked hard, embraced opportunities and made their mark in so many different areas of school life.

Our High School Choir added a beautiful touch to the occasion, complemented by thoughtful speeches filled with words of wisdom, reflection and encouragement. It was particularly special hearing from our outgoing Executive Heads as they reflected on their Felixton College journeys, sharing memories and experiences from their years at school.

We also had the pleasure of announcing our new Executive Committee, and we congratulate each of these pupils on their appointment. We look forward to seeing them embrace their leadership roles and the opportunities that lie ahead.

The evening also included a heartfelt Valedictory for our Matric Class of 2026, marking another meaningful milestone as they prepare to close this chapter of their school journey. We will be sharing these special moments separately.

Congratulations to all our award recipients. We are incredibly proud of your achievements and grateful to the teachers, parents and families who continue to encourage and support our pupils throughout their school years.

Enjoy looking back at some of the wonderful moments from our High School Prize-giving!

WHERE IN THE WORLD ARE THEY? 🌍

SAMANTHA KIM THOMPSON (née Harvey)
Class of 2003 - Prefect
House : Apollo 💛

‘After leaving school, I packed my bags for the UK and had an incredible time working and travelling, exploring places I had only dreamed of in the UK and Europe!

Upon my return, I followed my passion and completed a degree in Fashion Design in Durban, which kicked off an amazing career in the clothing industry. I started working in local manufacturing as a merchandise supplier to Mr Price & Foschini. After a few years I moved to a company that opened me up to a different experience specialising in imports as a supplier to Truworths. Both of these jobs offered me further travel opportunities, including America, Europe, Mauritius and China, to name just a few. With the work experience I had gained, I soon became a buyer for Mr Price Sport, a career I enjoyed immensely.

Along the way, I also married my high school sweetheart and the love of my life, Seth Thompson. Life only became sweeter when we welcomed our first son in 2017, followed by our second son two years later.

These days, I have the absolute privilege of being a stay-at-home mum to our two wonderful boys. Having travelled far and wide, we chose to settle closer to family and friends in the Ballito area. We love being able to live an active outdoor lifestyle and still enjoy a slower paced and quiet family life.

I have the pleasure of spending my time painting, sewing and consulting, keeping that creative spark alive.

Thinking back, I have very fond memories of school. I was a founding member of Grade 6 and it was a privilege to watch the School grow over 7 years there. Felixton College was a chapter filled with lifelong friendships, a variety of sport, charity work and vibrant cultural experiences. I always felt supported by ALL of the staff to strive to my full potential - Thank you! (Especially to my favourite teacher - Mrs Myburgh!)

Wishing Felixton College continued success and growth.

OFA - Samantha, thank you for sharing your story with us. We will never forget the vision of you descending the staircase at your Matric Dance at Canefields, every part a princess. Some of the younger children thought you were Barbie. You looked gorgeous! See photos below ⬇️
Class of 2003, if you spot yourself in one of the pics, please say ‘hi’ to Samantha ❤️

A few of our Matric Class of 2026 pupils recently took a little trip down memory lane, making their way through our Junior School and back to Roots Pre-primary, where their Felixton College journey first began.

There was plenty of reminiscing as they revisited familiar places, caught up with teachers who once taught them and marvelled at how much has changed over the years. The morning was made even sweeter by spending time playing and interacting with our little Rootlets, who loved having the older pupils visit.

Our Roots staff had also prepared a lovely surprise, complete with candy apples and a special message for our Matrics: “You are awesome to the core!” A sweet reminder of just how proud we are of them as they tackle their final examinations and prepare for the exciting chapters that lie ahead.

Thank you to our Roots Pre-primary staff for making this visit so memorable. Seeing our oldest pupils reconnect with the people and places that were part of their earliest school days is a beautiful reminder of the friendships, memories and sense of family that grow throughout a Felixton College journey.

Once a Rootlet, always part of the Felixton College family!

Our Grade 1 and 2 pupils have been spreading a little extra love and encouragement as our Matric Class of 2026 begins their final IEB examinations.

With plenty of creativity and thoughtful messages, our Junior Primary pupils made beautiful handmade cards to wish our Matrics all the very best. It was such a lovely gesture from some of our youngest pupils to those preparing to take their final steps in their Felixton College school journey.

These little moments remind us just how special our Felixton College family is, where encouragement, kindness and support are shared across the different grades, from our youngest to our oldest pupils.

Good luck, Class of 2026. Your Felixton College family is behind you every step of the way.

As our Matric Class of 2026 begins their final IEB examinations today, we want to wish each of our pupils every success as they take this important final step in their school journey.

You have worked hard to reach this moment, and we know you will walk into each examination with confidence, a clear mind and faith in all that you have prepared for.

Remember, your entire Felixton College family is cheering you on! And who better to send you off with a little encouragement than our Grade 1 pupils?

Enjoy their sweet words of wisdom and a few smiles to carry with you into your examinations.

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

Good luck, Class of 2026! We believe in you!

For our Grade 11 pupils, camp marks the beginning of an important chapter as they prepare to step into their Matric year and their role as the senior leaders of Felixton College in 2027.

A few days away at Gwahumbe Reserve gave them the opportunity to experience leadership in a completely different environment. Through team challenges, problem-solving, hiking, outdoor cooking and time spent together around the fire, pupils were encouraged to communicate, rely on one another, step outside their comfort zones and discover the strengths they each bring to a team.

There was plenty of adventure too, encountering wildlife right in the camp and facing a big hailstorm together on the hike back to camp. Between the challenges came the laughter, conversations and shared experiences that strengthen friendships and create the memories that make school life about so much more than the classroom.

Thank you to the team at The FARM for once again creating such a meaningful experience for our pupils and to our Felixton College staff who accompanied and supported them throughout the camp.

We look forward to watching this group take their place as our Class of 2027, carrying forward the friendships, lessons and sense of belonging that have grown with them through their Felixton College journey.

We are incredibly proud of our High School pupil Zenande Mncwabe, who was selected for the KwaZulu-Natal U19 Girls’ Soccer Team following a series of competitive selection trials and official capping ceremony.

After securing her place in the provincial squad, Zenande travelled with her team to Gauteng, where they participated in a soccer tournament held at Panorama Football Club from 24–27 September, competing against teams from various clubs.

Congratulations, Zenande. We are so proud of your dedication and look forward to seeing where your soccer journey takes you next.
