parents and friends

Woodcroft College Parents and Friends launched in 2020 with the purpose of building friendship and our sense of community along with the opportunity to generate valuable funds to support the ongoing development of the school.

As a newly formed group, we are still developing our plans which will include one or two annual fundraising events to engage with our parent, friend and old scholar community. We welcome ideas for activities and events from members of our community.

Planning meetings are held on Monday nights up to three times throughout the term. If you are interested in being part of the planning committee or volunteering for one of our events, please email [email protected] and we will ensure you receive an invitation to the meetings or find out about volunteering opportunities.

You can also call our Director of Marketing & Advancement, Cathy Stewart on 8381 0463 for more information.

Since it launched, the Parents and Friends committee has funded a number of projects around the College:

• Introduction of Assistive Technology for Inclusive Learning Faculty
• Floor mats for Cheerleading team for Sports Faculty
• Baritone saxophone for Music Faculty
• Two portable Basketball Hoops for PE Faculty
• Wall art for Biology and Chemistry labs for Science Faculty
• Supplies for 2022 and 2023 Pedal Prix team race days
• PA system for Music Faculty
• Motion Sensors and Immersive Technology experience for Science Faculty
• Large commercial fridge for use at College events
• Giant Jenga and Finska sets for Year 6 students
