The Dominicans of the English province have now been working in South Africa for over forty years and the work we are doing is varied and colourful. At Stellenbosch in the Cape we have a priory which is primarily a training house for (white) South Africans with a novitiate for both choir and laybrothers and a study house of philosopy and theology. At Hammanskraal in the northern Transvaal we staff (with the help of the Dutch Dominicans) a major seminary for the training of African priests. We have two university chaplaincies, Stellenbosch and Cape Town, and are responsible for the running of nine parishes, white, brown and black, one at Stellenbosch, the others on the East Rand.
