St Anthony's R.C. School

named after St Anthony, who is the patron saint of the poor. Saint Anthony, also known as the saint of the people, is known to be called upon
through pray to intercede with God when items have been lost. Due to the Group Areas Act, the Sisters were forced to seek land elsewhere to
build a new school and in 1963 the last group of children relocated to the new
building in Gordon Road, Heathfield where it is currently situated. In 1964 SrClarina, the principal of the school, was transferred to George to
take up a new position within the Holy Cross Community and Mr William van der
Horn was appointed as the first lay principal. Upon his retirement in 1993,
Mrs Joan Felix held the post of principal until July 2000 and she was succeeded
by the current principal, Ms Gloria Naidoo.
