Thutolore Secondary School is a governmentsecondary school on Madubane Street inSoweto, Johannesburg.
The school had some involvement in theSoweto Uprising which started on 16 June 1976. This started with a student march from the schools of Soweto objecting to a government order that schools should useAfrikaans to teach certain subjects.
A crisis meeting was held at Thutolore School on the weekend of 6 March 1976, where local parents firmly rejected the idea of instruction in Afrikaans. The parents noted that they paid for the education and instructed the representative of the "homeland" ofBophuthatswana to take their objection to the central government.[1]
