Your Legacy
At Walford, we make a difference together, and every contribution is deeply valued.
As we reflect on the transformative leadership of Miss Mabel Jewell Baker, whose visionary stewardship shaped the essence of Walford, we recognise the enduring impact of her contributions. Her legacy paved the way for the vibrant community we cherish today, one defined by innovation, inclusivity, and excellence.
In parallel with Miss Baker’s legacy, our community echoes these values and continues to enrich the fabric of our school.
Now, as we embark on our next chapter and transform Mabel Jewell Baker House into a model of modern learning spaces, your family has the opportunity to continue your legacy alongside Mabel Jewell Baker's by commemorating your family name on the building.

Scholarships
Through the generous support of our community, Walford is pleased to offer a limited number of scholarships that promote academic excellence, foster diversity, recognise students for their individual strengths and talents, and alleviate financial barriers to a Walford education
Our scholarship offerings allow our students to embrace opportunities and benefit from a personalised learning journey while coming together in the heart of our school community to share our values and live our School motto, Virtute et Veritate (Moral Courage and Truth).

In an ever-evolving educational landscape, it is imperative that our heritage aligns seamlessly with our progressive needs. The Building Fund strives to strike a harmonious balance between honouring our rich history and embracing innovation, ensuring that our facilities and learning spaces reflect the contemporary education our girls require to thrive in the world beyond school.
