Our Facilities

Presbyterian High School has invested consistently in the environment our learners live and study in. From a state-of-the-art dining hall and solarised learning spaces to a biogas plant and a registered school clinic, our facilities are built to serve a growing boarding community.

Dining Hall

The school successfully completed a state-of-the-art dining hall which is large enough to accommodate 800 learners.

This has been a mega project which has tremendously improved the standard of quality service provision for boarding learners, and it stands as one of the most visible achievements of recent years.

Biogas Plant

The school prides itself on its biogas plant, which fuels the school kitchen with clean and reliable cooking gas.

Beyond the significant reduction it has made to the school's gas budget, the plant is a working demonstration of the sustainability principles our learners study in the classroom.

Presbyterian High Clinic

Presbyterian High Clinic is a registered mission clinic located on the Presbyterian High School campus in Madzongwe Village, Chegutu District, Mashonaland West Province. It is registered under the Ministry of Health and Child Care.

The clinic was established in 2012 under the Presbyterian Church in Southern Africa, founded solely to ensure that learners and our rural community have immediate access to quality primary health care. What began as a modest first aid facility has steadily grown into a fully functional school health care centre.

For over a decade it has played a vital role in safeguarding learners' health and reducing the need for long, costly trips to Mubaira Hospital or Watyoka Clinic. The clinic currently serves a population of 4,366.
