• History & Memorable Moments

Woodrose School is the very first school established by PAREF, a non-stock, non-profit organization of parents who want to be fully involved in providing their children a Christian education. It started operations at a large, two-story house located at the corner of 10th and Gilmore Streets in New Manila, Quezon City in June of 1977 with 76 students ranging from Grades 1 to 5. A higher level was added each school year until the first senior class in high school graduated in 1984. In 1981, the school transferred to its present permanent location in Ayala Alabang, Muntinlupa City, following the donation to PAREF of a two-hectare lot from Don Jaime Zobel de Ayala. Now on its 30th year of operation, Woodrose enrolls 1,000 students from Grade One to Fourth Year High School in the red brick buildings and lush green lawns of its campus. ^[1]

Over the years, Woodrose has gained recognition as one of the best private schools for girls in the country. It has garnered numerous awards in inter-school competitions for oration, debate, writing, art, music and sports. Many alumnae have shown academic prominence as well as competence in their chosen professions. Moreover, they have exercised concern for the social and moral welfare of various sectors in society through outreach activities and other socially oriented projects. Woodrose School is recognized and approved by the Department of Education (DepEd). In 2002, the school was named a Center of Excellence in Sports and the Arts by the City Government of Muntinlupa. In May 2006, Woodrose obtained its full accreditation status from the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities (PAASCU). ^[1]
