Brescia House School is an independent Catholic day school for girls, situated in the heart of Bryanston. Established in 1966, Brescia is proud to be a part of a worldwide Ursuline network of schools who collaborate in a Global Education Programme.
The motto of the school, ‘Serviam’ means ‘I will serve’, and a spirit of service to the community is encouraged. While remaining true to the vision of our founders, we welcome pupils of all denominations.
A wide range of academic subjects is on offer, and pupils participate in a variety of extramural sporting and cultural activities. Facilities include heated swimming pools, two hockey fields, a mini astro and eight tennis/netball courts. Sporting activities include swimming, diving, artistic swimming, hockey, netball, soccer, athletics, tennis, and cross-country. Off-campus, students can participate in the school equestrian team, and a CrossFit programme. Cultural activities include public speaking, chess, choir, and music. The recent launch of the Brescia House School Music Institute enables students to be exposed to music production and technology. They also learn to record music and songs in the school’s recording booth.
The school has been identified as a Microsoft Showcase School since 2013. The introduction of laptops to all students in grades 4 to 12 ensures that the students receive a first-class education and are well-equipped for the future. Students are taught coding from Grade R, all the way through Primary School.
