Ivanhoe Girls’ Grammar School was incorporated in 1922.
The management of the company and the custody and control of its funds and property is vested in a Board of twelve members, supported by the Company Secretary, comprising:
Day-to-day management of the School is delegated to the Principal, supported by the School’s executive team.
Mrs Kerrie Haynes is the current President of the Board, and brings to this position a wealth of experience, longstanding connection to the School, and a deep understanding of its culture and values.
A former student (Class of 1983) and past parent, Kerrie has served on the Board for more than 25 years across two tranches, first joining in 1995. In that time, she has held a number of key roles, including Treasurer since 2016 and Vice President since 2021. Her service was formally recognised last year when she was awarded Life Governorship of the School — a significant honour that reflects her enduring commitment and impact.
Kerrie’s leadership is marked by strategic insight, clarity, and a genuine care for the wellbeing and future of the School. Her contributions have been instrumental in shaping key decisions and initiatives, and she has worked closely with fellow Board members and School leadership to help guide Ivanhoe Girls’ through both steady progress and more complex challenges.
