Interview with Robbie Crawford-Brunt – Grade 2 – Standard 2 1945
Robbie was only at Marist Brothers for three years and left at the end of standard 2. He started school in
1943 and completed grade 1 and 2 in one year.
Tony Sonnenveldt was in his class whose family were Robbie’s neighbours. Robbie’s parents built a house
on the corner of Main (now Rivonia Road) and Empire Place, Sandhurst a block away from today’s
Sandton City. In those days it was out in the sticks on the edge of a housing development. The
Sonnenveldts lived opposite in Empire Place and Tony sometimes rode to school on a horse. Gallos of the
record company lived opposite in Main Road.
Robbie still has all his school reports as well as receipts for school fees. He also has some exam papers
from that period and a copy of a proposal to establish a Marist old boys club.
Robbie was happy and contented at Marist Brothers and doesn’t recall any bad times or unpleasant
experiences.
