Welcome Remarks from the Principal:

Waterford Kamhlaba has a long tradition of respect for human rights, for democracy, and for delivering an education that fosters the qualities essential for leadership and for making aspiration a reality.

When naming the College 'Kamhlaba' in 1967, His Majesty King Sobhuza II, Ngwenyama of Swaziland, eloquently described our culturally rich and diverse community:

quoteWe are all of the earth, which does not see differences of colour, religion or race. We are 'Kamhlaba' - all of one world"

Today, the College strives to build on its reputation as a United World College and as one of the leading schools in Africa. Our commitment is not only to provide an outstanding academic programme, that prepares students to continue their studies at leading universities around the world, but also to nurture in students the ability and desire to be socially responsible citizens of the world.

- Mr. Laurence Nodder (Principal)
