The Long Walk (25 March 2023)

The 80km Long Walk, coordinated by the Past Pupils’ Association and drawing extensively on the skills and resources of the Parents’ Council, is one of the older traditions of the School and usually takes place in March. The Long Walk has taken place every year since 1963. There are shorter walks for the younger children but the ultimate aim, especially for the High School pupils is to complete five 80km walks in their school career. It is a day on which everyone in the schools is afforded an opportunity to participate in this proud tradition.  For each and every child the walk is an opportunity to develop perseverance, grit and to stretch each child to rise to life’s challenges.  The walk is a non-profit making event but rather a spirit building initiative.

Country Fair (Saturday 29 July 2023)

The Country Fair is a popular annual event on the TMC calendar. Whilst it is a fundraiser for the Parents’ Council, it is also an esprit de corps builder. It usually takes place on the campus on the last Saturday in July, or the first Saturday in August. Parents, staff and pupils join in and work at the different stalls. Tombola, a games alley, second-hand bookstall, a beer tent, a tea garden, a House of Horrors, arena events and a lifestyle expo are some of the regular activities on the day. Country Fair Day is a compulsory school day.

Golf Day (18 August 2023)

The Golf Day is part of the Parents’ Council fundraising activities. It takes place at the Kloof Country Club. Parents are requested to sponsor holes, prizes etc.
