Boarders today, sisters for life
Home away from home
Our boarding facility, offered from Grade 8 to Grade 12, is a fun, safe, and secure environment which helps foster a strong sense of sisterhood.
At St Mary’s, our boarding facility welcomes girls from Grade 8 to Matric, on a weekly, termly, and flexi boarding basis, offering them a nurturing space to foster independence and cultivate friendships.
Our priority is to create a homely atmosphere, ensuring that every girl feels embraced by a warm, safe, and caring environment that allows her to excel in all areas of her life. Within our community, she will not only learn valuable lessons in independence, resilience, and life skills, but also forge strong bonds of sisterhood with girls her own age.
The sound of laughter echoing through the corridors, the joy of walking hand in hand to the Dining Room for supper, and the peaceful moments spent relaxing in their rooms in the afternoon are all part of a typical day in our boarding program, which fosters a sense of belonging and happiness, ensuring one large, harmonious family.
Our dedicated in-house catering staff prepares and serves nutritious meals, accommodating various dietary preferences. Although we accommodate vegetarians, we are not a Halaal certified school. With well-trained boarding staff members ensuring smooth operations and the safety of all girls, our four boarding houses provide nurturing and secure environments where girls can truly thrive.

Mrs Louise Taylor
It’s about the memories, the laughs, the light that is shared between life-long friends. The innovative teaching that leaves its mark on her, forever. It’s about writing the script for her own life.
Choosing a boarding school that has global standards and Christian values, is a choice not just for her academics and sports career, but for her. It’s about finding a home away from home. Because home is where the heart is.
Her home away from home, her sisterhood. Because home is where you can make lifelong friends.
