I did a Keynote at Champagne Sports today. For such a Lekker client.
Drove there and back in one day. Which was pretty far.
But what a beautiful drive!?! The Drakensberg is something bladdy spectacular. ❤️🇿🇦
Today, we’re excited to celebrate a monumental milestone – Drakies' 58th birthday! This special occasion will be marked by a meaningful wreath-laying ceremony, honoring the vision and dedication of the school’s founders.
Looking ahead, 23 January will officially be recognised as Drakies Founders Day, a day to reflect on the privilege of being part of a world-class choir and experiencing an exceptional education set against the breathtaking backdrop of our mountain haven. Today, we not only pay homage to the trailblazers of the 1960s, but also to every individual who has played a part in shaping the unique legacy of our school.
Here’s to Drakies – happy 58th birthday! Let’s continue to honour the spirit that makes this place so extraordinary.

Drakie Old Boy, Wade Breedt is off to an impressive start in his matric year at St Stithians College! He was already renowned for his prowess in djembe drumming and gumboot dancing at Drakies, so it is not surprising to hear that he is now leading both the Gumboot Squad and the Djembe Jitas at Saints. Wade's leadership skills and passion for music and movement are palpable. We wish him the best of luck as he embarks on this exciting year!
Congratulations to former Drakie, Walther de Bruin (Class of 2021) on achieving an outstanding set of IEB matric results at Reddam House Umhlanga. Walther achieved seven Distinctions!

What an unforgettable experience at the Sci-Bono Discovery Centre!
Today the Drakies had some down time and had absolute blast exploring the interactive exhibits, discovering the wonders of science, and getting hands-on with some seriously cool tech. From robotics to space exploration, we were all inspired to dream bigger and think outside the box!
