Introduction

The foresight of previous generations has contributed to the wonderful facilities and beautiful physical environment that Marsden students enjoy today. The Board of Management has a Development Programme that was formed in consultation with the wider Marsden Community.

The Marsden Development Office leads the fundraising for this vision and links the various groups which make up the Marsden Community, the Parents' Association, the Old Girls’ Association and the parent run Sports Clubs.

Our Director of Development, Mrs Martine Foster (nee Watson), is a Marsden Old Girl, whose two daughters (Fiona and Lucy) are also recent Old Girls.
