Girls High School Harare ("GHSH") was founded in 1898, the first public school for girls in the city of Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe).
The school celebrated its centenary in 1998 with pomp and a fair.
The school is located in Harare's central business district.
The school motto is "Per Ardua Ad Astra" ("Through hard work, we will reach the stars").
The school uniform for junior girls is the traditional green pinafore with white blouse, and the school for senior girls (A level students) is the traditional "butcher blazer" with stripes, and green skirts.
