The Whanganui Collegiate School Old Boys & Girls Association came into being on 12 July 1889. Mr Walter Empson, then Headmaster, was elected as first President.
Our collection contains thousands of photographs, plans, documents, minute books, memorabilia, trophies, uniforms, and records of drama, music, sport, and war service. They trace the evolution of WCS from its earliest days on Victoria Avenue to the present campus.
A complete run of The Collegian since April 1883 offers a unique record of school life and wider social history, now available in a searchable digital format. The Museum’s resources are being progressively digitised and linked to the Old Boys and Girls Association database for easier access.
Each year, the Old Boys’ Association offers Alumni Scholarships to support students with a family connection to Whanganui Collegiate. Eligible recipients must be the child of an Old Boy or have a close family link, with scholarships contributing towards a percentage of tuition fees.
