Hillview High School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hillview High School, also known just as Hillview, is a public English medium mixed-gender high school located in Roseville, Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa.

[edit] Location

The school was founded in 1955 on the site of the former Prinshof Primary School (corner Du Toit and Dr Savage streets) near the city centre. The school moved from the city centre to Franzina Street in Roseville in 1980. The old buildings made the news after 6 July 1991 when they were bombed by members of the AWB.

[edit] Motto

The school motto is Levabo oculos (Latin: I will lift my eyes). The school anthem is based on Psalm 121 and starts "I lift my eyes up to the hills ...".
