PALMA VIRTUTI
reward is to the brave
the functioning of the trust
The primary purpose and objective is to raise funds and provide assets to its beneficiaries (Greyhound Trust – Selborne Primary and Whippet Trust – Selborne College).
This support enables the College and the Primary to offer a more enhanced education as Public Schools, as defined in the South African Schools Act, by promoting, encouraging, and maintaining high standards in academics, staffing, culture, and sports at both schools.
The functioning and purpose of the trust and its beneficiaries are described in more detail in our latest brochure.

Foundation House
Selborne Foundation House is situated at 4 Dawson Road, across the road from the main rugby field at Selborne College. The property had been purchased thanks to the kind contribution of a generous Old Selbornian, in particular Peter de Lacy, together with funds raised by the Old Selbornian Association. The house was converted into a suite of offices, freestanding flatlet and a state-of-the-art boardroom.
Beyond South Africa
Our Old Boys are spread across the globe, with particularly strong communities in the UK and USA. To support and engage these alumni, a dedicated UK & USA Foundation has been established.
