Upcoming Events
Parents and carers can find community events on the College calendar in the MyPymble app. All parents are encouraged to check the app frequently to stay up to date with scheduled events and important information regarding their daughter’s learning. This week we were fortunate enough to welcome Alumni grandmothers, mothers and their girls to our campus to celebrate the inter-generational traditions that bond Pymble students.
Foundation Ball
The Pymble Foundation is delighted to invite the College community to the inaugural Pymble Foundation Gala Ball at the Art Gallery of NSW.
It will be an unforgettable night of celebration in support of the Pymble Foundation. Enjoy fine dining, beautiful wines and bidding in our exciting raffles and auctions.
Due to the venue size, tickets to this event are limited and will sell out quickly. Tickets are available now and can be purchased here. Please refer to the attached invitation for further details.
We look forward to celebrating all things Pymble with you on the night.
Garden Party
Every year Garden Party is one of the most anticipated events on our College calendar. This year the activities and stalls are bigger than ever, ranging from exciting new rides, animal fun, sporting displays, dozens of market stalls, plenty of performances and a range of delicious treats.
