Welcome to our new principal - Dave Cato.
Dave grew up in Hillcrest near Durban where he completed his schooling. He studied for his Bachelor’s degree and professional teaching qualification at the University of Natal (Durban). During his career, Dave has served at four independent schools Kearsney College, Woodridge College, Treverton College and the Drakensberg Boys Choir School. Dave commenced his tenure as the Principal of Thembelihle School at the start of Term 3. Dave’s experience in numerous school leadership roles, which includes nine years as a Head, bodes well for the new season that lies ahead for him and Thembelihle School.
Dave is married to Helga and they have three children – Jennifer, Samantha and Mihlali, and two grandchildren – Noah and Oliver.
We are so excited to have Dave on our team.
