Our School

Our School

Nico Malan High School strives towards serving the community and its learners by providing excellent education, support, coaching and facilities.  This is a school that cares and puts the child’s needs first.

Vision

Nico Malan High School strives for excellence by developing proud and well-balanced children through the application of basic Christian values.

Mission

Nico Malan High School strives to implement this vision with the help of its Governing Body, staff and parents in the following ways:

  • Learners must be equipped within a safe environment to be loyal and worthy citizens with Christian values who will benefit the community.
  • By developing a work ethic that will enable each learner to reach his potential through receiving education in his mother tongue.
  • By encouraging the child to attain his full potential in his physical development through participation in school sport.
  • In a multi-cultural community, the love and pride of each child for his own culture must be respected always with the necessary regard for school rules.
    The school, as educational institution, should play an important role in the community by giving guidance and assistance.
  • The optimal use and management of its resources (facilities and skills).

School badge

The well-known heraldist, Dr C. Pama, was responsible for the design of the school badge.  It displays what we stand for.  The eight flickering beams emphasise the motto which means that knowledge will enlighten.

The Fleur de Lis and castle are symbols from the original family crest of Dr Nico Malan.  The former was awarded by French kings for outstanding service and the latter represents stead-fastness in our Creator and loyalty towards the fatherland.

School Song

The school song is the creation of Mr E.J. Gerryts, a teacher connected with Humansdorp High School and the composition has been done by Grace Edelman.

Van die Hanekam se kruine tot ons verre suiderstrand,

Van die Gamtooswateroewer tot aan Bloukransstroom se rand;

Oor die velde en die strome, deur die Tsitsikammabome

Kom ‘n roep tot hoof en hand.

Refrein:          

Ons kom, ons kom, ons kom, ons kom
