In 1910 Ellie Campbell Rodger took first place on the Beit
Scholarship examination and she passed the School Higher examination and
Matriculation examination. She also gained the Beit Bursary for one
hundred pounds a year for three years and studied in Scotland. She took
her M.A. degree at Edinburgh University and she was the first Rhodesian
to gain this distinction and, incidentally headed the school's academic
honours list.
In 1911 five girls passed the Beit Scholarship examination, one passed
the Junior Certificate examination, and two girls Matriculated. In 1914
Elisabeth Greenfield was the first girl in Rhodesia to obtain a first
class in the Matriculation examination and she subsequently gained a
scholarship to study at the South African College in Cape Town.
