OBU Membership |
| |
The Rondebosch Old Boys’ Union is one of the largest school alumni organisations in South Africa with more than 7 000 members. Membership is open to all those who attended Rondebosch Boys’ High or Prep Schools. A fee is payable for life membership as the Union does not offer annual membership.
The Union has arranged with RBHS that the joining fee is paid on behalf of the current matrics to ensure that they are all able to join the Union. At the annual Valedictory Assembly an Old Boys’ Union tie is presented to each matriculant as he leaves the Memorial Hall as a symbol of his life long association with Rondebosch. |

- receiving newsletters,
- receiving the Enews,
- a means to stay in touch with fellow classmates,
