[citation needed] In 1986, "Stellenryk High School" opened its doors to 316 students and 16 faculty members.

The school song was written by a number of faculty members, including Johan Pretorius who died in 2021, and was sung for the first time during an assembly on 5 November 1989.

The Representative Council of Learners (RCL) consists of twelve members - three from each grade - which forms part of the SRC.

[citation needed] Sport facilities include a sand-based Astroturf, an additional hockey field, three rugby fields, four netball courts, four tennis courts, a multifunctional indoor activity centre, a gymnasium and a resistance-training gym.

MTBS is especially well known for the performance of these schools on the pavilion where they support their athletes with LCD-like flashes and singing compilations - for which a trophy is also awarded.

Stellenberg has thus far been the most successful school in acquiring the singing trophy - winning it 11 times in the past 21 years that the cup has been awarded.
