Hilton College: Famous figures who went to SA's most expensive school
South Africa's most expensive school, Hilton College, made headlines this week after its principal scolded parents of learners for being too 'extravagant.' The headmaster's criticism came after a rugby derby featuring another prominent private school, Michaelhouse. This week, Hilton College made headlines for all the wrong reasons when principal George Harris scolded parents for their flamboyant display of wealth at a rugby derby day. The KwaZulu-Natal Midlands school boasts a long list of prominent figures who have passed through its gates. Some of them include former Springboks Bobby Skinstad and Gary Teichmann, Proteas cricketer Lungi Ngidi, sports broadcaster Robert Marawa, Democratic Alliance's Christopher Pappas, and the late rapper, Riky Rick. George Harris, the Hilton College headmaster who wrote the now-viral open letter, is not among the privileged few who attended the private school. Instead, the Wits-schooled leader matriculated at Pretoria Boys High School, the same school attended by Elon Musk, the world's richest man. The principal of Hilton College has urged parents of learners to not be 'extravagant'. Images via Facebook Hilton College bags the number one spot as South Africa's most expensive private school. Its annual fees for 2025 stand at R420 729, which includes boarding and tuition fees. According to reports, parents of learners are in the top 0.01% of South Africa's working class.

The indaba was held under the national theme: Skills for a Changing World – Empowering Youth for Meaningful Economic Participation.

Capacitate the youth with information, opportunities, and technical resources. Launch the South African Implementation framework for the young professional network. Recognise youth innovations, achievements, and success stories. Encourage nation-building programmes. Tiyani Chauke of DWS encouraged participants to view the conference as the beginning of a broader movement. 'Let us be the generation that gets things done for our communities, for our country, and for the future of water security,' Chauke said. Wisane Mavasa, spokesperson for DWS, stated that SAWSYN gave a sterling presentation on the work that they do countrywide. 'It was heartwarming to learn from them that they are now inviting the business sectors as well to join their network so that they do not work in silos. Businesses can now get involved in matters that SAWSYN is doing. 'The National Empowerment Fund offers training and funding. The youngsters were indeed encouraged not to just sit at home thinking that there is no employment; the fund can assist,' Mavasa said. Ramateu Monyokolo, the chairperson of the Association of Water and Sanitation Institutions of South Africa (AWSISA), supported the establishment of SAWSYN as a bold, strategic, and watershed platform for youth leadership, innovation, and transformation. Monyokolo said the network could be used as a vehicle to break the cycle of poverty, unemployment, and exclusion that continues to impact millions of young South Africans. 'The network places youth development and empowerment at the heart of water and sanitation sectors' long-term sustainability, innovation, and service delivery, thus it is a structural response to an urgent national imperative. We believe in meaningful intergenerational collaboration and that young people must not be passive beneficiaries of change - they must be co-creators of the solutions,' Monyokolo said
