Erinville Hostel

Weekly boarders at Rustenburg Girls’ High School are housed at Erinville House which is situated in the school grounds. Erinville boarding house is a real home away from home where everyone is accepted and supported as part of the Rustenburg family. 

Accommodation & Facilities

While we seek to maintain the beautiful historic building, we also add modern necessities that learners need to do their schoolwork and connect with friends and family, such as a computer room and Wi-Fi connectivity.

The hostel has 6 dormitories (A–F) which have been divided into 68 semi-private cubicles and 4 double/triple cubicles. We can accommodate 76 learners from Grades 8 – 12. Boarders enjoy the semi-private arrangements in our dormitories which offer the camaraderie of a sleep-over with some private space of their own. We strongly encourage learners to individualise their cubicles by bringing pictures, photographs, ornaments and décor from home.

There are 4 upstairs bathrooms comprising a total number of 8 showers and 8 baths. In addition, there is a downstairs bathroom with 1 bath and 2 showers. All baths and showers are private and have their own doors. Six upstairs toilets and 3 downstairs with regularly serviced sanitary bins complete our ablution facilities.

Delicious meals are provided by the friendly in-house catering staff. The kitchen is Halaal friendly and can accommodate special dietary requirements.

Leisure time

When our boarders are not busy with their academic work and the very many activities on offer at school (both sporting and cultural), they relax in their common room which has a TV set, DSTV, NETFLIX and a Blue Ray player. There is also a Pool table and a Fussball table. Although the hostel computer room is reserved for academic work during study times, girls may enjoy the internet, e-mail and Facebook in their leisure time. The school facilities and grounds are available for exercising, playing games, practising sport or simply relaxing.
