Sport to better our pupils
Sport is an integral part of the development of well-rounded and balanced learners. KHS encourages learners to take part in one summer and one winter sport where the learners learn many different skills and life skills. These skills include sportsmanship, commitment, dedication and the ability to work effectively as a team. Learners who excel at school sport and meet the prescribed criteria of school sports are recognised through the merit and colours awards. The school has delivered no less than sixteen boys who have gone on to represent our country on the sports fields of the world. This is the second highest number of Springboks to come out of any school.
