In a small town, a business does not earn 75 years of support by chance. It earns it through trust, service and a willingness to show up for the community, year after year.
Union High School is proud to continue our ๐๐ข๐๐๐ฆ ๐๐ข๐ฅ ๐๐ข๐ข๐ series by recognising the generous support of ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ป ๐ช๐๐ธ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ป, a respected local accounting firm whose offices are situated at 38 Somerset Street, Graaff-Reinet, and which has served the community with professionalism and integrity for an extraordinary 75 years.
๐๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ป ๐ญ ๐๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ถ๐น ๐ญ๐ต๐ฑ๐ญ, Van Wyk Theron has long been a trusted name in Graaff-Reinet, offering a comprehensive range of services spanning accounting, tax and business administration, payroll and financial systems support, estate planning and broader financial and management consultancy. ๐๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ข๐บ, ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ง๐ช๐ณ๐ฎ ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฐ๐บ๐ด ๐ข ๐ต๐ฆ๐ข๐ฎ ๐ฐ๐ง 18 ๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฆ, ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ต๐ช๐ฏ๐ถ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ข ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ฆ๐จ๐ข๐ค๐บ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ด๐ฆ๐ณ๐ท๐ช๐ค๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ฉ๐ข๐ด ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ฑ๐ข๐ณ๐ต ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ง๐ข๐ฃ๐ณ๐ช๐ค ๐ฐ๐ง ๐๐ณ๐ข๐ข๐ง๐ง-๐๐ฆ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ต.
This partnership is made even more special by the firmโs strong Union connection. Managing partner ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐๐ฟ๐ด๐ฒ๐ฟ, who took over from ๐๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ฎ๐ป ๐ช๐๐ธ in March this year, matriculated from Union in 1994, making him a proud Old Unionite. His familyโs ties to the Union Schools run even deeper – his wife is a Grade 2 teacher at Union Preparatory School, while their four-year-old son, Nathan, has recently begun his own journey at Union Pre-School. There is always something especially meaningful about former pupils choosing to give back to the school and town that helped shape them.

Through their ๐๐ข๐๐๐ฆ ๐๐ข๐ฅ ๐๐ข๐ข๐ pledge, Van Wyk Theron will be supporting ACVV Huis van de Graaff, an old age home in Graaff-Reinet, extending the impact of this initiative beyond the hockey field and into the heart of the wider community.
On behalf of Union High School and our 1st team hockey girls, we extend our ๐ฆ๐๐ก๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ง๐๐๐ก๐๐ฆ to Brendon Burger and the entire Van Wyk Theron team for their generosity, their long-standing service to Graaff-Reinet, and their support of a campaign that continues to connect sport with community in such a meaningful way.
