Vesta is a Private Student Organisation established in 2008. We are a community that enables, develops and cultivates our members in conjunction with the environment we are in. Where one grows the other will follow suit.We achieve this by offering many arenas of developing the member – Be it involvement from PSO and Campus sport, culture or academics or even to becoming a leader, team player and a selfless citizen
The Phoenix is our emblem. It is a symbol which represents our continuous growth, passion and will as a community. A phoenix can never die and will always rise again; no matter how tough the times may seem. Vesta is a place where everyone from all backgrounds will feel welcome and right at home – “From the Ashes we Rise, in the Flames we Grow”.

Mentorship offered by Vesta
Vesta has handpicked a group of Vestonians that will act as mentors in the coming year. These mentors will help the incoming group of students to bridge the gap between high school and university life. This is not the only function of a mentor; all of them are trained to ensure the newcomers arriving in Stellenbosch are given the opportunity to grow in all aspects of life. Some mentors can also assist academically. Although all newcomers will be allocated a mentor on their first day of Orientation week, there is also a House Committee. The House Committee better known on campus as the HK will play a major role in your growth on campus these are usually seniors that have been on campus a few years now. So when you doubt anything they would also be there to act as a mentor.Vesta's Primarius
