Kari Vemer
After graduating with Computer Science and Psychology from the University of Cape Town, I pursued a career in Information Technology. I worked for various large corporates as IT Manager and Consultant.
I became involved at St Peter’s when my children joined the primary school. As the Girls School was newly established it offered numerous opportunities to engage. I was requested to represent the Girls PA on the Prep Schools Council. This offered a wonderful growth opportunity which allowed me to become familiar with the functioning of the school, and build up an appreciation for the staff, and how the school operates.
When my children moved to St Peter’s College (SPC), I joined Council as the Trust and Bursaries representative. I gladly took on this opportunity, as it was a new area of involvement for me and presented a challenge to develop the Bursary Programme within SPC. SPC now has a fully rounded and working Bursary Programme in place, which offers bursary students a holistic experience.
I have a love for nature, and in my free time enjoy travelling, theatre, swimming, cooking and wine tasting.
