Get Involved
All for one, one for All.
At the heart of our ethos is a sense of community. We are often referred to as the beating heart of Durban North, our legacy of 71 years having grown roots deep within our North Durban area, South Africa and across continents. While we are fortunate to showcase our world-class facilities and educational excellence, we are mindful of our responsibility to “pay it forward” with various school led initiatives such as The Hope Project bringing much needed assistance to those less fortunate. In turn, as custodians of our proud Northwood legacy, we offer Old Boys, corporates and individuals various avenues to become patrons of our school, and supporters of our boys with initiatives such as Support-a-Squire and the Corbishley Ellis Foundation. Northwood families are encouraged to leave their legacy as part of our Shield Wall, which is on view as you enter the school from our main entrance. For further information, please click on the tiles below.
The Northwood Shield Wall
Purchase your piece of armour and place it with pride.
The concept of the wall is one taken from the history of interlocking shields / armour used as a protective “wall” and is an apt one for our Northwood families, Squires and Knights to uphold as part of our school’s proud history and ethos.
Individual brass plaques are R350 each and can be personally inscribed or you can choose from one of our templates.
