Kind regards, 033 234 1167 | [email protected] | facebook.com/MHSOldBoys/ Head Boy 1982 – Graham Herbert I have been based in Johannesburg for the past 28 years, and for most of this time have been working in the mining industry. After leaving Michaelhouse in 1982, I studied a BSc and MBChB at UCT, graduating in 1985 and 1990 respectively. Over the next two years, I completed an internship at Ernest Oppenheimer Hospital in Welkom, and SADF conscription with SAMS in Pretoria. Without knowing that I would not return to clinical medicine, I applied for the Anglo American Management Trainee Programme that exposed me to finance and marketing in the gold, coal, and diamond divisions. Towards the end of this two year programme, I began working on health benefit options for the families of migrant mineworkers. In 1993 I married Sally Jackson who I had dated in A Block and VIth Form a decade before. Soon after our marriage, Sally and I committed our lives to Jesus Christ, and have followed Him since. Sally and I consider these two decisions to have been the most significant in our lives. We have three children: Georgina (24) who graduated last year from UCT (BSc Civil Engineering), currently working at Zutari in Cape Town, Michael (20, Founders 2014 to 2018) currently in second year BSc at UCT, and Katherine (17) currently in Grade 11 at St Anne’s. I was awarded a Pew Fellowship to Cambridge University for 1995 and 1996 to research health benefit options for migrant workers together with a group of Southern Africans researching similar population and migration topics. On returning to South Africa, I relocated to TEBA to conclude the research that culminated in a GPS distribution map and needs analysis of AngloGold’s migrant mineworkers. James Motlatsi, having retired from the National Union of Mineworkers after 17 years as President, was deployed to TEBA in 2000. James and I found alignment in a vision for TEBA, a company that was then 100 years old, and with its origins in the NRC (Native Recruiting Corporation) and WENELA. James’ relationship with Nelson Mandela helped us relaunch TEBA in the mining industry in 2003. After I returned from the Advanced Management Programme at Harvard Business School in 2005, James and I affected a management buyout, converting TEBA from a cost centre of the Chamber of Mines to a profitable and broadly owned BEE services company for mineworkers and their families. TEBA’s services have evolved to include home based care and medical services to mineworkers, development projects in labour sending areas, and the payment of backlog monies owing from various mining industry funds. Like most Old Boys, my time at Michaelhouse was seminal. The abiding lesson that I was privileged to learn was that life is not about me, and that the most fulfilled humans live outward looking lives in service of others. My time at Michaelhouse was enriched by following my father Richard Herbert (East 1951 to 1953) and my uncle Basil Hersov (Pascoe 1940 to 1944), by overlapping with my brother Bruce Herbert (Founders 1982 to 1986) and my cousins Robert Hersov (Pascoe 1974 to 1978) and James Hersov (Pascoe 1978 to 1981), and by having a son Michael Herbert (Founders 2014 to 2018) and nephews Nicholas Herbert (Pascoe 2012 to 2016) and Richard Taylor (East 2015 to 2019) as fellow Old Boys. The cohort of Old Boys who left Michaelhouse with me in 1982 celebrate their 40th Gaudy in 2022. The WhatsApp group that has been formed in preparation has revealed how close our relationships are, even when some have been dormant for many years. I also qualify to attend the 1981 Gaudy next year and look forward to re-connecting on WhatsApp with my fellow matriculants! I am blessed to be a member of this brotherhood. 1 Graham with his family Head Boy 2021 Congratulations to Joy and Deon Dhlomo (West, 1989) on Kwande’s appointment as Head Boy and the simultaneous appointment of Ande, Kwande’s twin sister, as Deputy Head Girl at St Mary’s Waverley for 2021. We look forward to Kwande’s leadership next year and wish the Dhlomo family a wonderful and successful year. Deon and Kwande Old Boys Moving On… Guy Pearson: Rector 2002 - 2012 If Guy was your Rector, you will recall a wonderful man who knew you, your parents, and your siblings! A man of unshakable integrity who tackles tough issues with the tenacity of the proverbial dog with a bone. A people person with a great sense of humour, he greets everyone in a way that makes them feel important. A man of faith and humility, without any sense of entitlement. What you see is what you get; and it is all good. And this goes for Maree too. The Rector’s wife who chose to work in the Trade-Inn so that she could meet and know boys and parents, who warmly supported Guy through 24 years of Headmastering. Guy and Maree, we wish you both a wonderful retirement in St Francis. 2 Guy, as he was so often seen, chatting with boys Peter Stevens (Farfield, 1972): Ten years teaching Maths and Ten Great C Block Journeys Pete, outstanding Maths teacher and stalwart leader of C Block Journey Group 2, has not missed a Journey since the inaugural event in 2011. Pete always enhances the Journey experience for his group by adding lectures, illustrated on one of the cardboard rations boxes, of the significant historical events which occurred on their route. Staff leading Group 2 know that they will not escape presenting the story of one of the battles and so soon become familiar with the details of: Langalibalele, Vaalkrans, Colenso, Spioenkop, Ladysmith and the like. Not many boys or staff can keep pace with this tough, rugged 65-year-old group leader and accomplished bushman who is an inspiration for all. Thank you Pete. We salute you. Group 2 will be your legacy! Another ‘Green Number’ for Pete Stevens – Ten C Block Journeys done! 3 Alan Smedley: Honorary Old Boy and Chaplain 1993 – 2020 Alan hangs up his vestments at the end of the year after 28 years as Chaplain, a member of the Matric Dance organising committee, C Block Journey Group 4 leader and initiator of a new and modern Confirmation Camp.

    Newsletter #4 October 2019 Dear Old Boys Even in the relative quiet of the Balgowan Valley we are amazed that the end of the year is almost on us. Just a few weeks until the boys pack their laughter and lively noise into cars and buses, leaving silent cloisters in their wake. It has been a full and eventful year at Michaelhouse and we have enjoyed recording the more recent Old Boy happenings in this newsletter. Ryan Thomson is our past Senior Prefect featured in this edition. The solar cooker, which Ryan developed during his engineering studies may well become one of my retirement projects! Robbie Leggat is completing the St Michael Statue commissioned by Graham McIntosh, which will soon be a prominent feature at the front of school. Christian Botha returned to school to open the Matric Art Exhibition and inspire our current art students. A few more old boys who are leading schools and making a difference to the lives of young people in classrooms around the world, have found their way onto these pages, as has Simon d ’Aubrey, making his name on agriculture. Storm Green has made the queen’s birthday honours list and Tim Harkness met James Fleming at the Elite Sport Summit Conference in Cape town, where he provided new insights into the psychology of success in sport. Old Boys continue to excel on the rivers, on their bikes and on the sports fields globally, performing well in the Berg and Bush, Amashova, Fish River Marathon and on the rugby field in Ireland. Joshin Raghubar is a John McNulty Prize laureate for his work in IT and the Midlands Branch managed to entice Keith Begg to Fordoun where he shared his inspirational life work in wildlife filming and, more recently, community-based conservation in Niassa.

  • Transport Guidelines to Parents
    09 February 2021 Dear Parents TRAVEL AT MICHAELHOUSE Departure Guidelines In selecting Michaelhouse as your son’s school, parents not living in the vicinity of the school accept the fact that travel is necessary and will mean that some boys get home just a few hours later than others. I write to you in this regard as requests for early departures put the Housemaster in a difficult position and, while we do not want to be unreasonable, equally we need to be proactive in guarding the time needed for all the facets of a Michaelhouse education. We therefore appeal to parents to be thoughtful and considered around departure times. If leaving early is a necessity from a logistical perspective, the school will do what it can to accommodate this. Requests out of convenience cannot, however, in most cases, be accommodated. Please direct all requests for early departure to your son’s Housemaster. Concessions will be considered under the following circumstances: • Connecting flights for international travel require a boy to depart early • Flights to the airport closest to a boy’s home are extremely limited and returning home would not be viable if the school was not prepared to accommodate this. • Parents are present at a school-sanctioned function and it would not be logical or feasible to make two time-consuming trips to pick up their son. The pre-requisites for this concession would be that it does not compromise a boy’s other school commitments and the departure time is after the school sanctioned event. Boys cannot get lifts home with other boy’s parents in these instances.

Kearsney College Chronicle Vol. 4, No. I July, 1955 ON SCHOOL MAGAZINES I think It will be generally agreed that, except for those most intimately concerned, School Magazines would not be classified among the "best sellers". They contain none of the features which attract the common herd, not even a bathing beauty on the cover (though it's an idea). Their interest-value is very local; to the outsider, the lists of event-winners or prize-winners have the monotony of a telephone directory, and does it really matter whether we won the match or lost it? Only to those most closely concerned does it matter. What, Magazine Reader, do you look for? Let's be honest. Yes, of course. You turn over hastily to those places where your own name is likely to appear: your own name, gold-embroidered, standing there for everyone to see, if it were not for the fact that they are too busy looking for their own names. That done, what else is there of interest? Well—you already knew the results of the matches, so that is not news; the activities of your Society are known to you and of no interest to anyone else; the Old Boys' News is just a catalogue of unknown names; articles are boring, except for the writers. Yes, surely this is not a best-seller.
