Mr. T. Kanjee
With our partners, we provide an environment where talents and interests of a learner are nurtured. The four pillars of academics, sport, culture and pastoral care enable young people to identify a path for their future. We equip them with the education and the confidence to follow that path. Our partners in this mission include the government of Zimbabwe, the Association of Trust Schools in Zimbabwe, Cambridge International (UK) and others who share our vision.
“Every young Zimbabwean, equipped with twenty first century skills, contributes personally to national and even global development.”
This is our vision for all young people of character in this country, that they are equipped and responsive to the demands of the twenty first century. With pride, they make their unique contribution.
The way we conduct ourselves towards one another in the school community and towards those outside, is governed by our belief in human values:
We acknowledge that our values have to be understood, accepted, internalised and then practiced. At first they may seem far-off and inspirational but in time they become embedded in who we are.
Westridge High School in Harare opened its doors to high school students in 1999. Our story, however, started before these doors ever opened. Hindoo men and women had a vision that all young Zimbabweans should access knowledge, be enlightened and ultimately serve others. Through their commitment and dedication these founding fathers (and mothers) directed their energy towards the construction of our high school. The very foundations of our school are built on a strong work ethic, the value and potential of young people, a belief in investing in the future and financial prudence. Our roots speak of who we are and where we have come from…
