- 08:1708:17, 20 December 2022 diff hist −205 Maritzburg College A stronger reference was asked for. At p148 in "For Hearth and Home", Mr Clark is quoted by the authors, explaining why that particular Latin motto was chosen.
- 08:1108:11, 20 December 2022 diff hist +15 m Maritzburg College →Houses: College was NOT a boarding school in 1863. The first boarders were taken in by Mr Clark in the early 1880s - see p83 of "For Hearth and Home".
- 07:5807:58, 20 December 2022 diff hist −26 m Maritzburg College Richmond Primary School is NOT a feeder school for Maritzburg College. Only a handful of boys have come to College from that school in the last decade.
- 07:5407:54, 20 December 2022 diff hist −45 m Maritzburg College Maritzburg College does not have a recognised "sister school" - so the earlier reference is irrelevant. The school staff is about 180 - the ACADEMIC staff is "about 100". School roll updated for 2023. Day Houses corrected. DHS added as a rival. Fees updated, for January 2023.
- 07:4407:44, 20 December 2022 diff hist +137 m Maritzburg College The numbers of boys / boarders cited have been updated, for the start of the 2023 academic year, as confirmed by the school's admissions department. The reference to the Africa Almanac has been deleted. That publication has ZERO standing in school circles. I submit that the opening two paragraphs need to "cut to the chase" about the school - and in this case I believe that that requires a mention of its all-round participatory culture.
