More Than a Campaign – The work of Advancement is from the Heart
Post-Event Wrap!
The SA/NT Chapter were thrilled to host John R Groom, Director of Advancement and Alumni and Anna Beattie, Advancement Manager from The Hutchins School in Hobart in early November. John shared his personal journey, insights and opportunities realised from the seven-year Building Campaign, including the profound impact of Community Engagement, and the breadth of work his team his team deliver.
Stewardship remains a cornerstone of their approach. It’s not just about building physical spaces but also activating and nurturing relationships, fostering responsibility, and ensuring the work of Advancement continue to serve the community for years to come. The commitment to stewardship ensures that the legacy of generosity and hard work is honoured, and that future generations will benefit from the opportunities created today.
Thank you to St Andrew’s School for hosting the event, and for the Principals, Foundation Members and Business Directors who attended. The work of Advancement in schools would not be realised without your support.
