Glenwood College High School Principal 

It is both a privilege and a responsibility to serve as Principal of this remarkable school - a community where every child is known, every family matters, and every member of staff plays an important role in shaping lives.


As part of the ADvTECH Trinity House family, we combine the strength and opportunity of one of Africa's leading education groups with the warmth, values and close-knit community that have always made Glenwood House so special.


At Glenwood House, we are not three schools sharing one campus - we are One Glenwood. From Little Glens through to College, we are one learning community where every child is supported, challenged and encouraged to flourish.


While we pursue excellence in academics, sport, culture and service, we believe education is about far more than achievement. Our goal is to develop young people of character, resilience, compassion and purpose, equipped not only for success, but for lives of significance.


At the centre of everything we do is Jesus Christ. His love, grace and truth shape our relationships, our leadership and our learning. We seek to create a school where faith is lived authentically, where every person is valued, and where children are encouraged to discover the unique purpose God has for their lives.


Pastoral care is at the heart of my vision for Glenwood House. Every child should feel safe, valued and known. Every member of staff should feel supported and inspired. Every parent should know they have genuine partners walking alongside them in the privilege of raising their children.


The strongest schools are built on strong relationships. Together, as staff, parents and learners, we are creating a community where people thrive, excellence is pursued with humility, and every story matters.



Whether you are joining Glenwood House for the first time or have been part of our journey for many years, thank you for entrusting us with your family. I look forward to welcoming you to our Glenwood House community and to all that we will accomplish together.
