Development
at Benenden
Since the founding of the School in 1923, we have educated more than 6,000 Benenden Seniors. The Complete Education enjoyed by Benenden pupils today has been made possible in large part by the generosity of support provided by the Benenden community. We are grateful to all those who continue to give generously to the funding of key projects and of their time in support of the School and its students.
Past
Support
The School works hard to maintain its position as one of the leading schools in the UK by helping to fund outstanding teaching and learning facilities. In addition we aspire to give more girls the opportunity of a first-rate Benenden education by raising funds for means-tested bursaries.
Past support has positively influenced almost every aspect of school life: the generosity of our community has contributed to our All-Weather Pitch and Pavilion, additional on-site housing, our Science Centre and previously to the Clarke Study Centre and Eugenia Leung Library, the Theatre, the Eco-Classroom and the Fitness Centre.
Our most recent buildings, the Centenary Hall, Sir David K.P. Li Music School and Bonnie Yeung-Tsang Recital Hall are now firmly embedded in School life providing wonderful spaces for celebratory occasions and student learning. We are grateful to all members of our community who donated towards this project and made it possible. These facilities have proven invaluable for all students and are helping equip Benenden for its second century at the forefront of girls’ secondary education.
