Oudtshoorn High School is the proud product of the Boys High and Girls High Schools which were originally founded more than 100 years ago. These two institutions grew over decades with the town and proudly sent hundreds of responsible young people into adult life.
 
The two schools were amalgamated during 1963 and Oudtshoorn High School has steadfastly extended the beautiful traditions inherited from both. Our ex-pupils have done their alma mater proud in various spheres of public life in South Africa.
