Mondale High School is a school in the Western Cape, South Africa. The school was founded in 1982.
The school's name is derived from the names of two roads running adjacent to the school: Montague drive and Merrydale avenue.
Fees are R 2,717 (approx. $247) but collection is very poor as it serves a community where there are very high rates of crime and unemployment. Despite this, academic performance is very good with a 100% pass rate in the NSC examinations in 2015 . The school has also won the A-section athletics competition 23 times in the last 25 years. It has produced 13 provincial athletes and soccer players who have played in the Premier League and for the national team. It has also performed well in provincial quiz competitions, winning twice.
