Facilities at Watershed College

Watershed's facilities include well-equipped classrooms, an attractive, well-resourced Library, offering a wide range of information under the full-time supervision of a qualified librarian. The comprehensive stock of books, newspapers and magazines meets not only the academic needs of students, but also encourages leisure reading.

Laundry

Laundry facilities are available for uniforms and other items of clothing. The clothes must be clearly labelled and have the appropriate laundry tag. Minor items of clothing may be washed manually by the students and hung on the laundry lines that are provided in the hostels.

Catering

The college dining hall provides healthy, well-balanced meals for all boarders and ensures that boys and girls with special requirements are catered for. During the week, snacks are provided for all students at break and day scholars also join the boarders for lunch. A food committee, comprising staff, representatives from the caterer and a number of student leaders meets regularly, to ensure that the highest standards are maintained in the dining hall.

Medical Facilities

A clinic registered with the Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, with qualified nursing sisters, serves the students. There are daily consultation times. In case of an emergency, pupils are taken through to Borrowdale Hospital in Marondera. A doctor and a physiotherapist visit weekly. The clinic is also a member of a local private hospital and is covered by MARS ambulance.
