The Roedean School (SA) PTA Golf Day

The Roedean School (SA) PTA Golf Day is more than a highlight on our community calendar – it is a meaningful expression of partnership, purpose, and pride.

Each year, parents, alumnae, staff, and friends of Roedean come together on the fairways to support a shared commitment: advancing excellence in education and enriching the learner experience. What unfolds is a day of connection and generosity, with impact that extends far beyond the golf course.

Funds raised through the PTA Golf Day are reinvested directly into the school – supporting improvements to facilities, enhancing academic and co-curricular opportunities, and enabling initiatives that strengthen innovation, wellbeing, and holistic development.

Why This Matters

At Roedean, we recognise that excellence in education is sustained through more than tuition fees alone. Fundraising initiatives such as the PTA Golf Day play a vital role in bridging the gap between essential provision and exceptional opportunity.

These contributions enable us to:

  • Enhance teaching and learning environments
  • Expand sport, cultural, and leadership opportunities
  • Support innovation in education and learner wellbeing
  • Strengthen the long-term sustainability of the school

Equally important, they reflect the strength of our community – a collective investment in the future of every Roedean learner.

Sarah Calburn

Sarah Calburn (Roedean 1981) is an award-winning architect and founder of her Johannesburg-based architectural practice, established in 1996 following the completion of a Master’s degree in Architecture by Research at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. She graduated with distinction in Architecture from the University of the Witwatersrand in 1987 and has worked extensively both locally and internationally.

Sarah’s architectural philosophy is rooted in the dynamic relationship between landscape and architecture, history and future, and the interplay between built form and environment. She credits the buildings and grounds of Roedean with shaping her early awareness of the emotional and spatial power of architecture.

She designed the Fred & Renee England Centre for Maths Excellence at Roedean, thoughtfully integrating a contemporary structure within the historic Sir Herbert Baker buildings that form the original school Houses. Her connection to the school spans generations, with both her mother and daughter having attended Roedean, giving her a deep understanding of the school’s architectural and spatial heritage.

Her practice has extensive experience across residential, performance, retail, educational, and gallery spaces, and has received widespread recognition for its innovative and contextually responsive work. While serving on the committee of the Gauteng Institute for Architecture, Sarah was also Programme Director of South Africa’s first Architectural Biennale, Architecture ZA 2010.

Alongside her professional practice, Sarah has taught design at several universities, and her work and writing have been published in numerous local and international books, newspapers, magazines, and journals. Her work has featured in prominent international publications including 100 Women Architects (Pratt Institute, 2023), Raising the Roof: 50 Women Architects Who Broke Through the Glass Ceiling (Prestel, 2021), Johannesburg in Transition (Chipkin, 2009), Landscape 1000x, and the Phaidon Atlas of World Architecture (Phaidon, 2019).
