Our Aim

The Wenona Foundation is dedicated to fostering a culture of philanthropy within our community, ensuring that our School's values and traditions continue to thrive. We administer the School's development programs, focusing on creating opportunities for deserving young women and enhancing our educational facilities.

Leadership and Governance

The Foundation is guided by a dedicated Board of Directors, comprising parents, past parents, and Alumnae. This diverse leadership ensures that we remain true to our community's values while driving innovation in education. The Board, chaired by Mrs Wallis Graham, brings a wealth of experience and passion to their roles, working tirelessly to support Wenona's vision.
