Grades Introduction A basic tenet of helping the journey of our pupils from boyhood to responsible and appreciative young men is to ensure that they feel they belong. Much of the literature emanating from this school exhorts our young men to make a difference – be it at the school in their five years here or in society in the decades to follow. The school is divided into 8 houses of approximately one hundred boys. Every house is assigned a House Head who, together with the Tutor, is responsible for the academic and pastoral welfare of his / her boys. The Houses are sub-divided into four tutor groups whose membership consists of five boys from every grade. The Tutors meet their groups every morning for fifteen minutes and every afternoon for ten minutes, and for an extra half day eight times during the year. During these periods, discussions are held on pertinent issues of the day from school to current affairs to social issues. Matrics play a vital role in the success of a tutor group. It is their example and their leadership, which will go a long way to ensuring the good traditions of Wynberg are perpetuated – ie. The Brand of the School: Friendliness, Manners, Pride in Uniform, Aiming High and Never Giving Up. Of the key features of the Pastoral Programme are the annual Camps. Grades 9 and 10 have the opportunity to attend an annual camp. Carefully planned to be physically challenging and with educational value, the camps are structured with activities that appeal to boys. Grade 10 students undertake a 12 day hike in the Cederberg mountains each year, designed to be both a physical and spiritual challenge as they progress to their senior leadership years at school and their growth to adulthood. Other annual age-appropriate group activities are provided for Grades 8, 11, and 12.
