Whether you are a curious prospective Helshoogter, parent, a current member of our community, an old-boy, or simply just browsing through, I would like to extend a warm welcome to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In case you are wondering: Helshoogte is just the right fit for you! There is no stereotype, and no need to \u201cfit in\u201d \u2013 our goal is to embrace your authenticity and build a thriving, diverse student residence. Helshoogters prioritise community, this means we sometimes have difficult conversations, make mistakes, or feel challenged \u2013 we are all human \u2013 the end goal is to emerge feeling heard, understood, and that you belong as a member of this House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I completed a Bachelor of Science in 2012, as well as further postgraduate studies at SU. In addition to being the Resident Head of Helshoogte, I work in IT, playing a role in the university’s institutional project to renew and implement ERP systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My journey within the Helshoogte community began in 2014 with my appointment as Resident Head, a role which entails maintaining continuity, looking out for the interests of Helshoogters, the residence itself, and giving advice or input when needed. This community offers its residents a platform from which to excel in academics, sports and social or cultural spheres. Students can integrate many of these into their day-to-day life within residence. University is the first step in your adult life journey, and this is the place to begin it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
