The Vision and Mission of the Gryphon Trust

It is the vision of Chesterhouse School to: “Inspire young minds to be extraordinary. The strength of our faith, our commitment to excellence and diversity makes us go beyond the classroom: nurturing proud South African leaders with a global vision.

The Gryphon Trust is the cornerstone of the Chesterhouse School’s ethos of outreach and giving. It has been set up to provide scholarships so that disadvantaged children have access to a world class education at our school. Education is the single most important legacy that a parent, a town, a city or a country can leave a child.

Our Objectives:

  • To build the school’s capacity through partnerships with the community, local authorities and the corporate environment.
  • To help us to help our community in a measured and meaningful way.
  • To ensure all Chesterhouse children develop an understanding of the need to serve others in an environment of mutual respect and compassion.
  • To live our mission which is to assure the spiritual and moral growth of our children.
