United Against Racism
UNITED AGAINST RACISM The SSA and Saracens are of course committed to tackling the issues of racial inequality prejudice and underrepresentation within society and specifically within the rugby community. We have all seen in the press both sports and mainstream the way players coaches and staff have come together on this matter and the SSA wanted to reiterate our support for the cause. We want to continue to celebrate our diverse and multicultural family whilst providing a platform to speak openly and honestly about what change we want to see. We do not want to be silent or stagnant on this matter. We abhor any form of discrimination and indeed through the Saracens Sport Foundation we have a rich history of tackling social injustice and inequality through the power of sport. But we know we can do more to ensure we are seeing greater representation on and off the field within our game. From the owner, the board, the senior management, the staff and players at Saracens we stand united. Black lives matter. We have a great chance to send a powerful message and educate people more on what this really means. No one disputes that all lives matter, but we must accept that racial discrimination still exists and we must work towards a position where all lives are considered of equal value in society. We must not ignore the past three months and we will not sit on the fence when we have an opportunity to change perceptions. Racism isn’t just easily identifiable prejudice. It can be unwitting, unconscious and for those who don’t come up against it, one might never know it’s there, but we must not be blind to it.

MCF #RED BLACK WHITE Directing potential since 1863 12 May 2019 15-2019 From the Headmaster’s Desk Dear Parents and Guardians This week we are focusing on COMMITMENT through our Character Education programme and on Friday, we celebrated Mothers ahead of Mother’s Day on Sunday. In line with the theme on Commitment, College is proud to recognize the long service of a number of our staff members who have served the school with distinction over the past 20, 30 and 40 years. 20-year Service: Mrs Suzanne Webley, Mr Ben Bosch, Mr Jabulani Mhlongo, Mrs Carol Smith, Mr Ken Hackland 30-year Service: Mr Sipho Zondi 40-year Service: Mrs Hazel Miller Boys were reminded of COMMITMENT TO ACADEMICS, with mid- year exams fast approaching, and the need to start revising and preparing, making use of chosen study and revision techniques, and where necessary, attending additional lessons after school. In recognition of Mother’s Day, we asked our boys to bring their mother or mother-figure in their lives to support them and watch them play on Saturday against DHS. There was also the chance to have a photo taken with “Mom” at the Pop-up Photo booth and give her a homemade biscuit. At College, we pay tribute to all our “Moms” who make such a difference in our lives. So what do Mothers want from their sons? • For you to be truly happy and safe • For you to have close, decent friends and to treasure friendship • For you to be proud of yourself and to build esteem in others • For you to have a zest for life and an enthusiasm for ensuring that you extricate the marrow

At «ja;,.?>s t Kearsney College Chronicle JULY, 1965 Kearsney College Chronicle Vol. 6 No. 1 Juij^ 1965 EDITORIAL We are a very young school, even by South African standards. By comparison with the schools of England, we are only just hatched. But, quite humbly, we wonder whether any other Public or Private boarding school has grown and matured quite as quickly as we have. In a mere 44 years we have grown from 11, housed in a private mansion, to 460, with (as all will agree) buildings and grounds hardly surpassed in the country. In the 25 years at Botha's Hill we have increased by 350, and the original bleak and bare setting can now scarcely be visualised. There is no boasting in this. We are quite convinced that this school was needed, and that throughout its development the hand of Providence has been at work. The early private venture was not allowed to disintegrate, although at one stage faith and sacrifice was needed to save the school from dying. But it was willed that we should survive, and that our faith should be justified. So we see our young life now divided into three parts. There was the period of foundation, under the right Headmaster; a humble unambitious period m which stress was unostentatiously laid on those things which matter: tome, character, humility, tremendous loyalty from those who loved their school. When these foundations were well and truly laid, there followed the second stage, again under the right Headmaster: one of bricks and mortar, a physical develop ment, one which saw us grow and grow, in numbers and influence, until we could regard ourselves as a school which was making a real impact upon the wider community.
