Testimonials
I can proudly attest to the life-changing impact of AHS. From securing a place for my brother after struggles at our local school to my own journey through AHS, this institution has been pivotal.
At AHS, the narrative shifted from doubts about passing exams to discussions about excelling and university prospects. With encouragement to tackle seven subjects in matric, I graduated with honours and became the first college graduate in my family.
Beyond academics, AHS instilled in me a sense of self-worth and possibility, reshaping my trajectory. Grateful to Mr. Badenhorst, Mr. Minnie, and the AHS community for their unwavering support and belief in my potential.
AHS isn't just a school; it's a beacon of hope and empowerment, guiding students toward a future filled with promise. Thank you, AHS, for shaping me into the confident, independent individual I am today.
Alberton High School has been my second home since the age of 6. From student to graduate to aspiring teacher, this institution has shaped my journey. Its commitment to values like discipline, respect, and perseverance sets it apart. The pillars of academic excellence, sports, culture, welfare, and leadership provide a holistic foundation for growth.
The support I've received from the dedicated staff has been unwavering, both during my time as a student and now as I pursue my career. Alberton High isn't just a school; it's a community that fosters growth and development. I am forever grateful for the experiences and memories it has given me, and I carry its values with me as I navigate my path.
Thank you, Alberton High School, for being a guiding light in my journey.
I'm a proud alumnus of Alberton High School (AHS). During my time at AHS, I learned more than just academics—I absorbed the core values of commitment, discipline, and perseverance.
As part of the Rugby team, I witnessed firsthand the power of dedication and teamwork. Our victories in the Small Schools Category, including winning Die Beeld Trophy and Golden Lions, fuelled my passion for rugby. This drive led me to the Western Province Rugby Academy, where I continued to pursue my dreams.
When I got my sports injury, the resilience instilled in me at AHS propelled me forward. I transitioned into the fitness industry, eventually becoming a Personal Trainer. The confidence and determination I gained from AHS were invaluable as I navigated new challenges.
