Support the Project – Donate today
The College is seeking your support in building the Learning Hub.
As you can see, it is a dynamic learning space that will greatly add to the facilities available to our student body. By keeping the same number of students in the College as we have already, the Hub will give everyone extra space.
No Government funding has been approved for this project, current parents are already carrying a financial burden – some are making great sacrifices in this difficult time to maintain the benefits of a Catholic Education for their sons.
Therefore, we are appealing directly to the wider College Community – Ex-students, former parents or grandparents of students, even those in the current parent body who may have access to more funds than most.
Please consider donating directly to the College Building Fund. Donations over $2 are fully tax deductible.
Your donation will help the future education of young men who will fulfil the mission of service and community based on the Catholic Faith in the Edmund Rice Tradition.
Please contact the College if you wish to discuss this matter further or simply use the online donation link below.
Your sincerely
Brain Populin, Chair College Advisory Council
