Verney College Company Information
General information
Verney College was established in 1975 and originally catered for Portuguese children who having relocated from Mozambique and Angola found it difficult to integrate in an English medium system of education.
Registered with both the South African and Portuguese Education authorities, the school soon became significant with academic success and defying apartheid laws.Verney accepted children from all nationalities, race and religion, truly multi-racial school.
Our defiance of the apartheid laws cost us the right to any government or corporate subsidies.
Despite the financial setbacks we grew in number and strength and our hard work was finally rewarded with the donation of our present premises in 1992 by the Department of Education.
OUR MOTTO “Knowledge is the light”.
OUR BADGE is a pictorial representation of our motto – two school children walking towards the ”light”.
OUR SCHOOL’S NAME, was chosen as a tribute to a great educator/teacher and writer
LOUIS VERNEY who in 1746 reformed and liberalised Portugal’s system of education . His most famous book “The true method of studying” became a landmark in European teaching methods.
