#ProudToBeSAHETI

SAHETI School was established in 1974 by a group of founders under the leadership of Advocate George Bizos. Its doors were open to all, welcoming widely diverse communities to share in its values-driven, universal education.
The campus has evolved as part of a unique design, which has attracted much attention and even professional recognition in the form of awards from the Institute of South African Architects. From the outset, SAHETI’s approach to education was dynamic and innovative. The school has become known for its enlightened teaching methods, consistent academic excellence and rich cultural life.
The expansive grounds have allowed for development of enviable sports facilities, to cater for a wide variety of activities. Today this vibrant school ranks amongst the top independent schools in South Africa. Its enrolment of about 1300 boys and girls is spread over a Playschool, Pre-Primary School, Primary School and High School.
SAHETI is situated in Senderwood, Bedfordview, on the eastern outskirts of Johannesburg.
Teenagers worldwide united for the future of sport values
A new innovative educational program that uses sport as a universal language to promote values, teamwork, and global citizenship.
A program that unites schools from diverse continents on an educational and cultural journey that promotes FairPlay as a way of life, through sport, creativity, and reflection.
Promotes excellence, innovation and FairPlay in education using the universal language of sport.


“The school motto, ‘Know Thyself’ dates back to ancient Greece and was expounded upon by the likes of Socrates. For me it speaks to the need for self-reflection, through which we will begin to understand our need for God and our dependence on each other. I believe that a good understanding of self will also spur us on as individuals towards training our bodies, mind and character so that we may maximise our God given potential and fulfil the calling upon our lives.”
– Mr Warwick Taylor (Former Executive Headmaster 2014-2022)

SAHETI Hosts Inaugural Intra-School Public Speaking Competition
SAHETI School proudly hosted its inaugural Intra-School Public Speaking Competition on 8 October, marking an exciting milestone in the development of public speaking at the school.
The evening saw 29 SAHETI speakers take to the stage to showcase their talent, confidence and dedication. The standard was exceptionally high, with adjudicator Mrs Oriella van der Walt remarking on how difficult it was to judge the competition due to the consistently high standard of the speakers.
Thank you to our Master of Ceremonies, Gabriel Protopapas, for guiding the evening and ensuring the smooth running of the event.
A heartfelt thank you also goes to our public speaking coach, Mrs Angelique Couloubis, for her dedication to developing each pupil’s potential, and to Mr Dominic Lund for his valuable support and contribution to the programme.
Congratulations to all 29 speakers, whose performances celebrated courage, critical thinking, self-expression and the power of the spoken word. You made us immensely proud!
This inaugural competition marks the beginning of what we hope will become a valued SAHETI tradition, providing pupils with opportunities to build confidence, discover their potential and develop skills that will serve them throughout their lives.

CONNECTING SCHOOLS. SHARING CHALLENGES. FINDING SOLUTIONS.
SAHETI Pre-Primary School and Playschool initiated and organised an Aftercare Networking Morning, bringing together colleagues from ISASA schools across Johannesburg and Pretoria to share experiences, discuss common challenges and explore practical solutions.
It was a wonderful morning of open discussion, collaboration and learning. We are grateful to everyone who joined us and contributed so generously, sharing their experiences, ideas and insights. The positive feedback highlighted the value of creating opportunities for schools to connect, learn from one another and work together to strengthen Aftercare programmes.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this initiative such a success!

To our Matric Class of 2026
Your epic journey to your Final IEB Exams begins tomorrow. Your vessel puffs its sails in gleeful anticipation. As you sit in the examination room, follow knowledge like a sinking star beyond the utmost bound of human thought. It will become the bringer of new things. May you conquer the Cyclops of self-doubt and Laestrygonian fear. Make your journey heroic, because it is yours. Make it meaningful, because you shape it. Make it the best version of yourself because you deserve it. So push off and smite the sounding furrows with philotimo. Rise to the victorious challenge remembering that you are part of all that you have met here, at SAHETI School. You are one equal temper of heroic hearts made strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yield.
Good luck make your story heroic! Go make yourselves proud as you have already made us proud!
From: Dr Daniela Pitt - Dean of Matrics

Honouring Our Flags, Celebrating Our Identity
Today, SAHETI School honoured the flags of Greece, South Africa and our school flag, celebrating the history, values and identity they represent.
The Greek flag connects us to our Hellenic roots, language, culture and history, while the South African flag represents the diverse country we call home and the values of mutual respect, coexistence and unity.
At SAHETI School, our Hellenic heritage is an integral part of who we are. We embrace the diverse backgrounds of our students, recognising that, despite our different roots, we share common values and belong to one school family.
Our school flag symbolises this bond, uniting us all as members of the SAHETI family.
Today, we proudly appointed our new flagbearers and attendants, entrusting them with the honour and responsibility of holding the flags with pride, integrity and respect.
Congratulations to our newly elected flagbearers and attendants!
Because flags acquire their true meaning through the people who honour them.

Τιμούμε τις σημαίες μας και γιορτάζουμε την ταυτότητά μας
Σήμερα, στη Σχολή ΣΑΧΕΤΙ, τιμήσαμε τις σημαίες της Ελλάδας, της Νότιας Αφρικής και του σχολείου, γιορτάζοντας την ιστορία, τις αξίες και την ταυτότητα που αντιπροσωπεύουν.
Η ελληνική σημαία μάς συνδέει με τις ελληνικές μας ρίζες, τη γλώσσα, τον πολιτισμό και την ιστορία μας, ενώ η νοτιοαφρικανική σημαία συμβολίζει τη χώρα που αποκαλούμε πατρίδα μας, με την πολυμορφία της και τις αξίες του αμοιβαίου σεβασμού, της αρμονικής συνύπαρξης και της ενότητας.
Στη Σχολή ΣΑΧΕΤΙ, η ελληνική μας κληρονομιά αποτελεί αναπόσπαστο μέρος της ταυτότητάς μας. Παράλληλα, αγκαλιάζουμε τη διαφορετική προέλευση των μαθητών μας, αναγνωρίζοντας ότι, παρά τις διαφορετικές μας ρίζες, μοιραζόμαστε κοινές αξίες και ανήκουμε στην ίδια σχολική οικογένεια.
Η σημαία του σχολείου μας συμβολίζει αυτόν τον δεσμό που μας ενώνει όλους ως μέλη της οικογένειας της ΣΑΧΕΤΙ.
Σήμερα, αναδείξαμε με υπερηφάνεια τους νέους σημαιοφόρους και παραστάτες μας, αναθέτοντάς τους την τιμή και την ευθύνη να κρατούν τις σημαίες μας με υπερηφάνεια, ακεραιότητα και σεβασμό.
Συγχαρητήρια στους νέους σημαιοφόρους και παραστάτες μας!
Γιατί οι σημαίες αποκτούν το αληθινό τους νόημα μέσα από τους ανθρώπους που τις τιμούν.
