Eco School And Sustainability

Green Flag Award. Water Wise. Power Wise.

The 乐鱼体育 campus has earned a Silver Status as an Eco School. 乐鱼体育 has made great strides in becoming an eco-friendly and fully self-sufficient school. Our water supply derives our own rainwater and groundwater collection, thus saving over 1 million liters of city water per year and ensuring that we will always have this vital resource. In terms of electricity, the school has been retrofitted with LED lights and boasts solar panels on top of the Parthenon. Using these two initiatives means our campus uses 50% less electricity than in the past. In combination with our back-up generator, during blackouts or load shedding we are able to provide a continuous energy supply to our entire campus and stay running at full capacity.

We also take pride in our state-of-the-art security system. Our 24-hour on-site security team is aided by an electric fence around the entire campus, 23 monitored CCTV cameras on the perimeter, 40 CCTV cameras throughout our buildings, a license plate recognition technology connected to the South African Police Services, and a guest entry system which logs each vehicle鈥檚 registration information and driver鈥檚 license. We have instant access to ER-24, Marine Post One at the Cape Town American Consulate, and the Constantia Valley Call Center for any emergency medical or security needs. With water, electricity, and security all accounted for, we are able to focus on our core objective of educating students!
