Good day RHS Stakeholders,
Please note that the Extra Lesson Schedule has been amended, and the updated version is attached for your reference. Extra lessons will continue on Monday, 26 January 2026.
This adjustment reflects the school’s commitment to ensuring that teachers are consistently available for academic support and consultation, and that every learner has a fair opportunity to access additional teaching time. We want to ensure that all learners are catered for, whether they need revision, extra practice, or clarification of concepts.
Extra lessons see teachers available in their classrooms until 16:00, allowing learners to attend even two extra lessons per day where necessary. Learners are therefore encouraged to attend regularly and make full use of this opportunity to strengthen their understanding and improve performance.
Thank you for your continued support.
Kind Regards,
RHS

🚨 Evacuation Drill in Action 🚨
As part of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (Act 85 of 1993), schools are legally required to implement and practise emergency procedures, including evacuation drills for situations such as fires or bomb scares. These drills ensure that everyone on our school grounds knows how to respond safely and calmly in an emergency and that the school meets its duty of care.
Who better to partner with than SCP? 👏
A huge shout-out to this incredible stakeholder for always having our backs and for helping protect the ±2 000 learners, staff, and visitors on our campus. Your presence, professionalism, and commitment never go unnoticed.
Today was made even more special as one of our learners, Kgothatso Chiwayo, celebrated his birthday 🎉🎂. Kgothatso is motivated and inspired to become a fireman one day! 🔥🚒
A heartfelt thank you to Clive and SCP for going the extra mile by picking him up from home this morning and bringing him to school. Moments like these inspire dreams and remind us why partnerships truly matter.
Thank you for keeping our school community safe, compliant and inspired! 💙
