Today, we honour the courage, strength, and voice of the youth who stood up for justice on 16 June 1976. Their bravery continues to inspire us to build a better, more equal future for every young South African.
Graeme College believes in empowering young minds to dream boldly, speak up, and lead with purpose.
Let this day remind us that the power of change lies in the hands of the youth.

Community Outreach Portfolio gratitude 🙏
We received a generous donation of three oil heaters from the Griffin family this morning.
These three heaters are being donated to Ikhaya Losizo Cluster Foster Home and just in time, as winter settles in.
We are so grateful to Suzie Vetter and Giles Griffin for thinking of us to benefit the community.

Our Grade 1 students created special fridge magnets for Father’s Day today and they were absolutely beaming with pride as they created each one with love. We’re sure that today, our Graeme dads/guardians will be just as delighted to receive these heartfelt gifts as the children were to have made them! 💚

Stunning Donuts and Dads morning for our Grade R boys!
This past Friday our preschool space was filled with laughter, love and the smell of fresh donuts as our Grade R boys shared quality time with their dads and guardians.
It was truly beautiful to witness these special moments and the joy on the boys’ faces said it all. They absolutely idolise their dads, and the connection was felt in every smile, hug and shared bite of a donut.
Thank you to all the incredible fathers and father figures who joined us. You made the morning unforgettable!
