Watershed College (or Watershed) is a private boarding school situated near Marondera in Zimbabwe. The College provides secondary education as well as an Agricultural course for girls and boys between the ages of 13 and 19.

History

Watershed College was formed in 1987 when farmers living in the area in Marondera decided to create a school for their children. The schools around at the time – Peterhouse Group of Schools – were too selective for the farmers and for this reason they decided to form their own institute. Farms were donated to this cause and so began Watershed College.
