Pinelands High School Pinelands High School is a co-ed state high school, situated in Pinelands, Cape Town, South Africa.

School is, first and foremost, a place where children come to learn, and the pursuit of academic excellence remains one of our strategic goals. However, the life lessons that are learnt at school are often learnt outside the classroom. At Pinelands High, we offer our pupils many opportunities to become involved in sport, music, drama and a variety of other cultural activities. We believe in educating the whole child, and give all the children in our care the opportunity to find their own niche and excel in their own particular way. The young men and women who leave Pinelands High are confident, energetic and passionate individuals, ready to take their place in contemporary South African society.

DOUBLE SILVER AT INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE FAIR!
Congratulations to our three young scientists who earned silver medals for both their research projects at the 2026 Eskom Expo International Science Fair (ISF) in Johannesburg!

The ISF brings together selected young scientists from across South Africa and abroad to showcase their research and compete for prestigious awards.

🥈 Alexandra de Roo (Grade 9) investigated how plant diversity influences arthropod biodiversity in suburban environments. Her research found that planted gardens supported an average of 14.8 arthropod species, compared with just 6.6 in open green spaces, highlighting the importance of biodiversity-friendly planting.

🥈 Uthmaan Razak and Huda Nacerodien (Grade 11) investigated how waste tyres could be converted into alternative fuel to reduce pollution. Using a process called pyrolysis, they successfully produced a combustible liquid fuel with several properties comparable to conventional fuels.

Both projects qualified for the ISF after winning gold medals at the Cape Town Regional Eskom Expo.

We are incredibly proud of these students and thank our Science staff for their continued commitment to extending learning beyond the classroom and encouraging scientific enquiry.

Two weeks ago, Mr Mohamed and three of our students attended Daily Maverick’s annual event, The Gathering, together with a member of staff.

They had the opportunity to hear a range of perspectives on South Africa’s current affairs ahead of the local government elections on 5 November.

It was also a valuable opportunity to network, engage with others and meet well-known political commentators, including Dan Corder.
