Paulpietersburg Primary School was established in April 1894.
It has had 17 principals to date. Our first principal was Mr. H.W. Stumpf. Our current principal, Mr. V.D. Eva, has been our principal since August 1997.
Our school badge was designed by Mr T. Meyer. The colors of the badge are gold and orange. The background is blue.
The joining of the three schools are reflected in the badge as:
The aloe from Paulpietersburg School.
The lion from Braunschweig School.
The book of knowledge and the Bible from Commondale School.
The motto of the school is "Scientia est Potestas" which means "Knowledge is power".
Where proud & verdant pine trees stand like candles on the hill Comes from this fertile region the black gold of our land.

Your lovely panorama of pale blue mountain range makes, place of two fine rivers, our hearts to glow with love.

From rocks of sandstone kranses was this our school then hewn Mould thus our children, Lord, to maturity step by step.
Waar groen dennabome staan soos kerse teen die rand, kom uit die ryke aarde die swartgoud van ons land.
๐
Jou skone vergesigte na ylblou bergeband laat, streek van twee mooi strome, ons hart van liefde brand.
