1929 Society High Tea

The 1929 Society High Tea has become a highly anticipated event amongst the community. The event brings together donors, alumni, supporters and volunteers to celebrate the stories and connection to St Aidan’s, as well as honours our 1929 Society Custodians who are leaving a legacy to support current and future students of St Aidan’s.

The 1929 Society is an organisation that encourages and recognises individuals who have made a planned gift to the school. Planned gifts, also known as bequests, are charitable donations made through wills, trusts or other estate planning instruments. The 1929 Society celebrates these individuals during their lifetime to acknowledge their contribution.

This year’s wonderful event was held in the Gold Room of the Queensland Club and was attended by Custodians, alumni, past and current staff, past and current council members, past and current parents, Foundation Directors and Patrons. Guests reminisced and discussed their connection to St Aidan’s, with many wonderful stories shared and more than a few laughs heard around the table. It was also lovely to be able to welcome an additional four Custodians to the Society. The event has created a sense of community around planned giving and it has helped to promote the importance of leaving a legacy to support future girls and women of St Aidan’s.

If you are interested in leaving a planned gift to St Aidan’s please contact Julia McKenna, Director of Development & Community at j.mckenna@staidans.qld.edu.au.
