La Salle College is an independent Christian school,
immersed in the Catholic tradition, which educates boys and
girls from Grade R through to Grade 12, by offering a
balanced curriculum in preparation for the IEB National
Senior Certificate Examination. La Salle is situated in
Discovery on the West Rand of Gauteng.
The College was founded in 1966 to provide an ideal
environment for learning and personal growth. Today the
school still offers a learner-centred, holistic education in
an environment of genuine caring, companionship and respect.
A Lasallian education is a lifelong foundation for success
in tertiary education and prepares the young person to be a
21st century global citizen, who will seek to take care of
those in need, as well as the environment in which they find
themselves.
