St Cyprian's School is an independent Anglican day and boarding school for girls in Oranjezicht, Cape Town, set on a historic campus on the slopes of Table Mountain. Founded in 1871, it brings three schools together on one site: a Pre-Preparatory School known as the School-in-the-Woods for girls from age three, a Preparatory School for Grades 1 to 7 and a High School for Grades 8 to 12, with around 950 girls in total. Students share a heritage chapel, a hall and sports facilities. In the senior years girls choose between two academic streams, the South African Independent Examinations Board matric and Cambridge AS and A Levels, which prepare them for universities in South Africa or abroad. The school was one of the first in South Africa to join the Round Square network, in 1997, and its programme combines academics with sport, music, drama, visual art, outdoor adventure and community service. It describes itself as an inclusive, values-driven family school with strong links to the Anglican Church, proud of having opened its doors to all races during apartheid. Weekly boarding is offered for High School girls at Katherine House.
