  • THE FORMATION OF THE GUILD: The Guild for past girls was inaugurated on All Saints’ Eve, 1885.  Foundation members were Miss Strong (Headmistress, mid 1883-1888) and Miss Burt (Headmistress 1888-1891) as they were both members of Cheltenahm Ladies’ College in England which DSG was affiliated for many years.  Miss Burt cemented the aims of The Guild which was to “weld the old girls together, serve the school and encourage service to others”.
  • MIXED CLASSES: “So much is making history for DSG – not the least of which is the Centenary!  It promises to be an exciting start to the next century of life at DSG as so many things are new.  In the first week of this momentous year we experienced “firsts” such as the first boys attending classes, the first Saturday morning school, the first time that all senior forms were represented in classes at St Andrew’s – to say nothing of the three very junior classes at St Andrew’s Prep!  I wonder what Mrs Espin would have thought of it all.”  J. Porter, Headmistress (1969-1974)
  • DSG OPENS 1874:‘The Diocesan Synod of Grahamstown, under the chairmanship of Bishop Merriman, decided in 1874 to open a sister school to St Andrew’s College.  “The Grange” was bought in the March and the Diocesan School for Girls was opened in July, with Mrs Catherin Espin, as Headmistress.’ Irvy Gledhill
  • The Hug is DSG’s much loved sculpture positioned at the heart of DSG’s campus, outside the All Saint’s Chapel. It was gifted to DSG in 2006 by Michelle Key, a celebrated artist and sculptor.  The act of hugging has become synonymous with life at DSG, and in honour of her daughters, who both loved their time at the school, Michelle felt the hug would be the perfect subject matter to symbolise their respective experiences. The Hug is a young girl being welcomed to ‘the sisterhood’ with a warm embrace by Senior girl as she looks towards her promising future. Interesting facts: Weighs 140kgs. One of the models was Michelle’s daughter Nicky – her actual blazer, shoes and uniform were part of the casting process. Doc Watson, Head of Council in 2006 commented “signifies the emotion of DSG which is one of warmth and caring.”
  • THE CENTENARY MEMORIAL WINDOW: All Saint’s Chapel. Set into the south wall of the chapel extension is the Centenary Memorial window, a gift from the Guild, to honour the memory of all those who worked in and loved the DSG who are no longer with us.

As we come together in atonement, we are reminded that healing and transformation are possible when we seek forgiveness and extend grace to others.
