In Loving Memory of Realeboga

Rustenburg – Fields College and the broader Rustenburg community are in mourning following the tragic passing of 14-year-old Realeboga Phage, who died on Tuesday, 16 July 2025. Realeboga, a learner at Fields College, was known for his bright spirit, infectious energy, and kind-hearted nature. His sudden departure has left a deep void in the hearts of all who knew him. In a heartfelt message to the school community, Fields College described Realeboga as “more than just a learner – he was a bright spirit whose presence left a lasting impression.” Grief counselling and support services have been made available to learners and staff navigating this time. “Words can’t begin to describe the pain of losing a child,” said Mrs. A. Coetzee. “But we find comfort in knowing Realeboga is now in a place of peace.”
