Selborne Foundation – Securing Our Schools' Future

Our vision is to collaboratively develop the Selborne schools into exceptional, state-of-the-art institutions.

We aim to create an environment where our boys can begin their journey as Selborne Pups, remain connected throughout their schooling, and continue to be part of a lifelong social network after matriculating from Selborne College.

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.
