Roselle Lawn Development Fund
In 20XX the lawn in front of Roselle House was redeveloped to create a green space to frame the grandeur of our heritage building and as a place for students to enjoy the outdoors. We thank all those who have generously helped us complete this project.
The Roselle Foundation
Saint Kentigern Boys School exists today because of the generosity of our founders. As the campus has evolved significantly over the past decades, that generosity has continued thanks to the efforts of the Roselle Foundation and its dedicated members.
A formal development strategy was created for the School in 2006. The first expression of that strategy was the Jubilee Sports Centre, which opened on the Schools 50th Jubilee in 2019.
Progress in 2017 saw the transformation of Roselle House into a state-of-the-art school library, learning commons and administrative facilities.
2017 also saw the Saint Kentigern Trust Board unveil its long-term development strategy, including specialist facilities for Technology, Science, Music, and the Performing and Visual Arts. This strategy also included a new Senior School teaching block and upgraded classroom spaces for both the Junior and Middle Schools.
Through all these developments, The Roselle Foundation has remained a pillar of support and a cornerstone of long-term financial independence for the Boys' School.
Governed by a formal Charter and led by a group of dedicated guardians, including parents, alumni, Trust Board members, and staff, the Roselle Foundation actively encourages philanthropy within the community and collaborates closely with the Trust Board to secure and manage sustained funding streams for the Boy's School. The Foundation also operates the Boys' School Annual Giving programme through the Development Office.
