St John’s Diocesan School for Girls
Smart LED floodlighting solution for school's Astro Hockey field
We supplied the smart LED floodlighting solution for St John’s Diocesan School for Girls’ Astro Hockey field in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa.
St John's Diocesan School for Girls is a private boarding and day school for girls in Scottsville, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. It was founded in 1897 by the Society of Sisters of St John the Divine and has an Anglican foundation.
The school required floodlighting for their Astro Hockey field. Our solution was chosen based on their high-quality product and service offering, as well as the success from another project within the area.
With this lighting solution, the school is now able to not only provide extended coaching sessions for their students, but it has also enabled them to provide their facilities to host domestic and Inter Provincial Tournament (IPT) matches.

Smart Lighting Solution
We supplied the wireless sports lighting control solution and OMNIBLAST-2-E MIDI floodlights for this prestigious project.
Incorporated with Schréder ITERRA, a complete user- and installer-friendly wireless control solution for sports lighting applications, site managers have a robust, cost-effective and futureproof platform to run their infrastructure with the utmost flexibility for adapting the lighting to any scenario or event while maximising energy savings and providing the best experience for players and fans. This system can now be expanded throughout the rest of their school.
A mobile App based system, Schréder ITERRA is very easy to operate and can be controlled from remote locations through a GATEWAY devise. It comes with an intuitive visual interface that one can quickly personalise to the client’s needs, giving them complete control of their lighting installation.
High-Quality Floodlighting
The OMNIBLAST-E has been manufactured in South Africa and is the ideal tool for sports venues and other very large area applications that require a lighting solution with the highest efficiency and flexibility to adapt to the different lighting needs.
Available in a MIDI and MAXI variant, this LED solution offers an alternative with proven benefits for traditional fixtures fitted with 400W to 2000W HID lamps. The OMNIBLAST-E meets various lighting applications, ranging from general area lighting to recreational sports lighting up to professional broadcasting requirements, matching the horizontal and vertical lighting levels respectively. A modular concept of optical units means that 1, 2 or 3 modules can be mounted on a similar bracket arrangement to offer the utmost versatility, providing light distributions and lumen packages perfectly adapted to the specifications of the area to be lit.
The OMNIBLAST-E guarantees a perfect glare control, a high colour rendering index (CRI) and meets the required television lighting consistency index (TLCI), as well as providing flicker-free lighting. The OMNIBLAST-E is available with cool white (5700K) or neutral white (4000K) LEDs to meet various sports specifications offering either static or dynamic effects.
