headmaster

"The current headmaster is Johan Volsteedt, the first headmaster also being an old boy of the school". How could the first headmaster (presumably in 1855) also be an old boy? GrahamBould 13:08, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This must refer to an older edition of the article and has been resolved. - Raker 17:07, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

oldest

The claim that this (Grey) is the third oldest school in the country is not true. The oldest is SACS (South African College Schools)(1829) followed by Wynberg Boys High School (1841) and Bishops (Diocesan College) (1849). St Andrew's College in Grahamstown and Grey College in Bloemfontein were both founded in 1855. This makes both Grey and St Andrew's the fifth oldest schools in the country. Grey High School in Port Elizabeth was subsequently founded in 1856.{unsigned}

I have changed this claim to that it is one of the oldest schools in South Africa. Raker 17:09, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
