Happy Mother’s Day to our incredible Pridwin Commu

Happy Mother’s Day to our incredible Pridwin Community!

The energy on campus was electric this past Thursday as our boys went on a high-stakes mission: finding the perfect gift! We caught up with them while they were shopping up a storm at the Grade 7 Mother’s Day Market, and let’s just say... the insight they shared about their moms was as heart-warming as it was hilarious.

Whether it’s a handmade treasure or a carefully chosen treat, we know it comes with a mountain of appreciation. We hope every mother, grandmother, and mother-figure in our community has had a truly spectacular day being celebrated!

At the final whistle, the Pridwin vs Wendywood score was tied 12-all. It was time for the Golden Try... which was eloquently delivered... by Pridwin!

What a MOMENT! We're super proud of you boys!

In South Africa, Workers' Day carries deep signifi

In South Africa, Workers' Day carries deep significance. It is a day to honour the struggle for the rights and dignity of every worker - a fight that helped shape our democracy. It serves as a reminder that the rights and dignity of our staff, and workers in our community at large, were earned through incredible resilience.

Behind every lesson, every game, and every milestone are dedicated staff members who make Pridwin a home.

From the classrooms to the gardens, and the offices to the sidelines, these are the faces of the passion and hard work that drive our school forward. 80+ faces, 1 heart... committed to nurturing the next generation of leaders!

Happy Workers' Day to our incredible team!

27 April 1994 marked the dawn of a democratic South Africa. This Freedom Day, we reflect on our country's history and look back on the day our boys, in their vibrant house colours, joined the staff in black and white to form a human South African flag.

As we celebrate, we reflect on the beauty of our diversity. At Pridwin, inclusion isn't just a value - it’s our strength. Together, we are a canvas of hope and a community of belonging.

From the classrooms to the fields, we stand together, honouring our history and embracing an inclusive future.

It was a true privilege to step back in time and s

It was a true privilege to step back in time and share an afternoon tea with Pridwin’s oldest Old Boy. Joined by his beautiful wife and daughter in the comfort of their home, we listened as Mr. Brian Thorp (Class of 1946) wove a rich tapestry of memories.

From his formative years at Pridwin to his time at Hilton College and his distinguished days on the provincial cricket pitch, 92-year-old Brian’s stories are a testament to a life lived with passion and purpose.

Today, 7 April 2026, marks a momentous occasion: Brian and Margaret Thorp are celebrating their 70th Wedding Anniversary. A lifetime of devotion, shared history, and enduring love.

Our warmest congratulations to the Thorps on this incredible platinum milestone.

Once a Pridwin Boy, Always a Pridwin Boy.

On the morning of Thursday, 2 April, a spirit of grace and fellowship blossomed as Pridwin and Auckland Park Preparatory School (APPS) united to usher in the Easter weekend.

The air was filled with a sense of sacred renewal — a celebration woven with uplifting song, evocative drama, and the timeless wisdom of scripture. It was a morning that truly resonated with the heart of the season.

Following the service, the sense of community deepened. While staff and parents shared warmth and conversation over a delightful Easter tea, the school fields came alive with the joyous energy of the children. In the spirit of simple, radiant fun, the boys and girls took to the grass for impromptu soccer matches, turning a morning of worship into an afternoon of lasting friendships and laughter.
