Stellenberg High School Stellenberg High School is a dual medium school located in Stellenberg, Bellville, Western Cape in South Africa. In 1986, "Stellenryk High School" opened its doors to 316 students and 16 faculty members. Several letters were received from parents, requesting that the school's name be changed to either Stellenberg High School or Eversdal High School. The first school day started with an assembly in the Stellenberg Dutch Reformed Church, as the school building was only partially completed at the time. Weekly assemblies later took place in a quad, until the building was completed.

The Bergvliet Primary School had already been built. The school's first Grade 8 class of 78 was enrolled in 1957 with Mr P.A.M. van der Spuy as its first Headmaster with two assistant teachers. The buildings were officially opened on 15 March 1957 by Mr Norman Henshilwood who was then the M.E.C. in charge of Education. Since that time additions to the school buildings have been carried out on four occasions. The learners and parents of the school have, from time to time, assisted materially with fund-raising for such important items as the present Gym Hall, the wrought-iron main gates, the bicycle shed, computer room, the Score Box cum Tea Kiosk, the media center, the walkway and new foyer, the tuckshop, the equipment for the Hall and the new Technology and Art Centre.
