Waterford Kamhlaba
Waterford Kamhlaba United World College of Southern Africa (WKUWCSA), one of 18 international schools and colleges in the UWC educational movement, is located outside of Mbabane, Eswatini. Waterford was the first school in southern Africa open to children and youth of all colours. It was started in direct opposition to the apartheid regime in neighboring South Africa. Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, and many others leaders in the struggle against apartheid, sent their children to school there. Waterford Kamhlaba was established by Michael Stern in 1963. The school's mission was similar to the philosophy of the UWC movement, and Waterford became the fourth member school of the UWC movement in 1981. Anthony (Tony) Hatton, for many years an English teacher at Waterford Kamhlaba, wrote an account of the early years of the school.
