Maris Stella School Subjects Offered – see the list of courses offered at Maris Stella School…

In High School, especially Grades 10 to 12, the focus is on equipping the girls, via subject choices, to enter into any field of tertiary study, and the options available to them are varied. In this phase of the school the emphasis is on encouraging academic excellence in order that pupils are able to gain entry into any South African university on the basis of their results. The school’s excellent NSC results illustrate that this goal of obtaining entry into any tertiary institution for all students is being achieved and more importantly ensuring that their future employment is secured and their sense of self-fulfilment realised.

In the FET phase the girls have to study the 4 subjects stipulated by the State i.e. a language at Home Language level (English), a 1st Additional Language (Afrikaans or IsiZulu), Mathematics or Mathematical Literacy and Life Orientation. They are then offered 3 elective subjects which are arranged in packages and include Visual Art, Drama Arts, History, Accounting, Business Studies, French, Music, Consumer Studies, Geography, Life Sciences and Physical Science. In addition, girls may study Advanced Programme Maths or Advanced Programme English. It is possible for another 8th subject to be taken in consultation with the Academic Head.

The girls are given the opportunity to participate in the English, Maths and IsiZulu Olympiads annually, while extension opportunities are provided in other subjects through participation in activities such as French Evenings, History Quizzes, Art competitions and Drama Eisteddfods to name only a few.
