Dainfern College – A World of Opportunity and Excellence
Dainfern College is a forward-thinking, independent and non-profit co-educational school situated in Fourways, Johannesburg. The College offers students from Grade 0 to Grade 12 a holistic and dynamic education that focuses on developing academic excellence, leadership, resilience and global citizenship.
Guided by a Christian ethos and founded on the traditional core values of Fortitude, Integrity, Self-discipline, Humanity, Accountability and Respect, Dainfern College nurtures students to become confident, capable and future-ready individuals. The holistic educational approach at the College is built on a healthy balance between the five pillars of academics, sport, culture, leadership and service, and driven by internationalism and innovation.
The academic programme is enriched by a strong focus on innovation, digital literacy, entrepreneurship, and real-world skills, and enhanced by the school’s membership in the global Round Square network of over 250 schools. Students consistently achieve excellent IEB matric results and go on to study at top local and international universities. Beyond academics, the College offers a strong sports programme, vibrant cultural programme, community outreach and service initiatives, and intentional leadership development.
Sport plays an integral role in student life and is valued for the life lessons it teaches: teamwork, perseverance, discipline and humility. World-class facilities on campus include a full-sized Astro hockey field, dedicated cricket academy, extensive rugby and soccer fields, and two swimming pools.
The high-performance centre on campus gives students access to enhanced coaching and fitness programmes, and Dainfern College is also the home of the Old Lions Cricket Club, one of the fastest growing clubs in Gauteng. These facilities support the competitive and inclusive sporting environment at the College, where every child is encouraged to participate and reach their personal best.
Dainfern College offers more than just an education: it provides a space in which every child can thrive, discover their potential, and leave ready to shape the future.
