Welcome to Paton House – Your Home Away from Home
I have been with Respublica Student Living since 2022, and over the 2 years, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing Paton House evolve from its humble red-brick beginnings into the state-of-the-art student residence it is today — perfectly blending with the proud architecture of the City of Choice, Pietermaritzburg.
My passion lies in transforming lives and shaping responsible citizens, a mission that aligns seamlessly with Respublica’s core values.
Welcome to Paton House — a place where comfort, community, and growth come together.
