Wolmer's Old Boys' Association
The Wolmer's Old Boys' Association was founded in 1905 to keep Old Boys in touch with each other, while at the same time to preserve their affection for and to foster the interests of their alma mater. The current President is Major Marlon M.C. Case B Sc MBA.
Over 100 years later, WOBA has evolved into a legally recognised charitable association that operates exclusively for the betterment of our school, the Wolmer's Trust High School for Boys.
Connected by our maroon and gold heritage, WOBA’s membership comprises alumna from virtually all walks of life who contribute their time, talents and resources towards, the advancement of the traditions of excellence known to "our school we all love dearly".
WOBA's core activities are geared towards providing financial support to our school and its students. We support educational initiatives and programmes that facilitate the holistic development of the students.
To this end, WOBA organises and executes various fund raising initiatives, of which our Annual Banquet a signature event.
WOBA also operates an ongoing mentorship programme that seeks to provide guidance and positive examples to the young men enrolled at our alma mater.
Our events and activities facilitate the Association's century old objectives and strengthens the Wolmer’s family and legacy.

Famous quotes containing the word association:
“It is not merely the likeness which is precious ... but the association and the sense of nearness involved in the thing ... the fact of the very shadow of the person lying there fixed forever! It is the very sanctification of portraits I think—and it is not at all monstrous in me to say ... that I would rather have such a memorial of one I dearly loved, than the noblest Artist’s work ever produced.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
