Building & Development Fund

The SACS families have, over the years, been most generous in their support of the Building and Development Fund. These voluntary contributions have enabled the Schools to grow and to maintain outstanding facilities for our boys. This is a proud achievement in the present State School system, where financial support for schools such as SACS, has been almost totally withdrawn. Not only has this commitment by our parents been of enormous academic, cultural and sporting benefit to our boys, but it has also kept SACS one step ahead of its competitors. We need to remain a leading school not only in Cape Town, but also in South Africa! In order to achieve this, we do need all parents’ support.
