Vryburg High School information


Vryburg High School (VHS) is a co-educational public secondary school for day and boarding pupils located in Vryburg, North West, South Africa. The school made news in 1998 when tensions between white, Afrikaans-speaking students and black students who were taught in English led to violence including alleged hostage-taking, beatings of students, and riots. However, today Vryburg High School maintains a safe environment and performs exceptionally well in areas such as sports, culture, and produces some of the best academic results in the North West province.
