Phoenix college - humble beginnings to great achievements

Phoenix college started from humble beginnings in December 1993, when an out of work Engineer handed out pamphlets in De Villiers St, dreaming about the school that he hoped to open the following year.
There were no learners, no teachers and he wondered whether it would ever become a reality. Using his pension money, he was able to put down a deposit on a building and hired chairs and desks for the 8 staff members and 100 learners from an events company.
At the same time that the new Rainbow Nation was being formed in 1994, a new school was founded. In Greek mythology, the Phoenix bird died in a fire but not before leaving behind 2 eggs that hatched, resulting in two baby birds. This has become a symbol of new life. With the new dispensation in mind, the school was aptly named Phoenix College.
