WBHS is a world-class South African institution that prepares its students for a rapidly changing global environment and has developed an enviable reputation for achieving all-round excellence in the education of its students .

While for most of its sixty year history it has been regarded as the premier academic school for boys in KwaZulu-Natal, over the past two decades in particular, it has expanded and developed its programmes to become an institution that is excellent across all facets of school life – the four pillars of Academics, Arts, Sport and Leadership . This consistent level of achievement has received both national and international recognition .
The facilities of WBHS were developed in its initial period of existence by the State . These have been enhanced over the last ten to fifteen years by the generous support of parents and benefactors . In line with government policy of correcting the inequalities in the South African education system, the State has, since 1997, significantly reduced its funding of the School . We are regarded as a ‘quintile 5 advantaged school’, and consequently State funding is limited to approximately 30% of our operational budget . Parents and guardians of students at the School contribute approximately 68% of the funds required through school fees, while a further 1 .5% of funds are obtained from other sources . This funding does not allow for large-scale campus development . As such, for any new developments and supplementary programmes not covered in the School’s budget to be fulfilled, the School needs to source funds through other avenues .

In order for us to uphold our position as a world- class South African school, several new and exciting capital developments need to be initiated . All planned developments, including the purchase and development of a new boarding establishment, the refurbishing of science laboratories, the upgrading of change rooms, and the construction of a student centre and drama teaching facility, are designed to support the pillars of excellence of the School .

The Foundation has been established as a fundraising vehicle to support the School in strengthening its position as a premier school . In so doing, the Foundation will directly support the all-round education experience of the current students of the School, and the thousands of boys who will attend the School in the future .

The Foundation is a separate legal entity to the School and is registered as a non-profit company in terms of Section 21 of the Companies Act . In addition, it enjoys Public-Benefit Organisation (PBO) status. The Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors . Individuals who make donations over a certain threshold become voting members of the Foundation .
The initial fund-raising target of the Foundation is R10 million .
