A conversation with the Head of College

upcoming major events

Mr John Weeks

Thanks to the College Foundation This week we formally announced the plans to develop a STEM-based Innovation Centre for our Junior and Middle School students. This has only been made possible through the support of the College Foundation which has made a $750,000 grant towards its development and construction. President of The Foundation, Mr Bruce Clydsdale and long serving Directors Mr John Cranfield, Mrs Shirley Burrow, Mrs Rosie Bayliss and Mrs Memory Sanders attended a special ceremony to hand over the ‘cheque’ and to symbolically commence the project which is planned for construction in 2020. Mr Clydsdale made the following remarks – “The Foundation was established in 1979 and due to the generous donations from many Alumni, parents and corporations, a capital fund was built up. Subsequent prudent investments meant that when approached by Mr Weeks the Directors voted unanimously to provide the necessary finance for this innovative development to proceed. “Since its inception, The Foundation has supported the construction and upgrading of many of the College’s educational facilities, as well as student support, and regard this project as its most significant contribution to the College. The Foundation’s past contributions can be found on the College website. “The Foundation has always been about the future by providing students and staff with the facilities to develop the skills and confidence to be able to contribute in a positive and meaningful way to the Australian and Global society. “It is therefore with great pleasure on behalf of the Foundation Directors that I am able to present this cheque to the Headmaster for the construction of the STEM Centre.” Again, we thank the Foundation for the generous support.
