A LIVING
NETWORK
Interestingly,
this network is being stretched by the enrolment of increased
numbers of students from outside of South Africa. As the word
has spread, the exclusive boarding aspect of Hilton, matched by
world-class opportunities, has attracted applicants from further
and further afield. This trend is welcome affirmation of the
quality of our education and adds an exciting dimension to the
experience of all. The school’s student exchange programme also
exposes the boys to the value and meaning of cultural
assimilation while simultaneously extending the awareness of
Hilton College amongst some of the most respected secondary
schools worldwide.

It
is nearly fifty years since I left Hilton, and there is
no doubt that the ‘way of life’ helps Old Boys after
Hilton. I was well-equipped after leaving the country of
my birth to be able to live in the outside world and to
understand how to draw upon the resources available to
me.

Throughout the world, the network of Old Hiltonians and other
members of the Hilton family, the frequency of their contact and
their commitment, both to one another and to the school with
which they are associated, is eloquent testimony to the Hilton
spirit. More than a place of learning, Hilton College is finally
a mirror of life itself: endless opportunity and challenge which
nurture and strengthen all who share its vision and tradition.
In an uncertain world, Hilton College provides a rare certainty
of caring and excellence; an experience that beckons you to join
its extended family of friends.
