Sargood House

About

Sargood is one of four Boarding Houses at St Paul's Collegiate School.

Story

Sir Percy Rolfe Sargood (1865-1940) was the head of a Dunedin textile manufacturing company. At his death the bulk of his estate was converted into a trust fund for the benefit of the arts and youth of New Zealand. The trust fund subsequently assisted a number of youth organisations and educational institutions.

The Sargood Trust made a sizeable donation – thought to be £10,000 – to the fledgling St Paul’s in 1960. As a result of this generous bequest the school's second* boarding house was named in honour of the benefactor. Permission was subsequently obtained for the House to use Sir Percy's armorial bearings (crest, shield and motto).

Sargood House opened in 1961. However, the new building was not quite ready at the start of the year, so part of Term 1 was spent under a large canvas tent! The west (Junior) wing was finished first; the east wing and Housemaster’s residence were added during the second half of 1961 and opened the following year. The south (Senior) wing was completed in 1997.

Sargood House has a long history of sporting achievement, especially in Rugby. Much of this success has been due to the energy and passion of its Housemasters, and the "never-say-die" attitude of its boarders.
