parents and friends

Woodcroft College Parents and Friends launched in 2020 with the purpose of building friendship and community along with raising funds to support initiatives and projects that positively impact our students.

Our volunteer Parents and Friends Committee plan events and activities each year to support this purpose. The committee includes current parents, Old Scholars and College representatives. Meetings are held two or three times per term on a Monday evening at the College.

If you are interested in learning more about the committee or volunteering at one of the committee’s events throughout the year, you can contact our Chair, Karen Stott at [email protected].

You can also call or email our Community Engagement Coordinator, KheShan Gronow who is the College representative on the committee. You can email KheShan at [email protected] or call 8322 2333.
