Parents’ and Friends’ Association

Dear Parents and Friends of SCEGGS

On behalf of the P&F Association, I extend a warm welcome to you all to the 2024 school year. A particular welcome to those families joining the SCEGGS community this year – we hope your SCEGGS journey is a wonderful one!

Our Committee organise a number of events, gatherings and guest speakers throughout the year and we hope you are able to join us for as many events as you can to get to know other families. This year is also a Festival on Forbes year, a biennial event bringing together the School and wider community.

A hugely popular event is our annual P&F Welcome Cocktail Party to be held on Friday 1 March from 6.00pm – 8.00pm on the Joan Freeman Terrace. Please see the invitation below for booking details.

Students in Years 9 & 10 and a parent or carer are also invited to attend the Parent/Daughter Breakfast on Friday 16 February from 7.00am in the Great Hall.

Our guest speaker will be the Class of 1995’s Lucy Hill (BETTS). Lucy is Head of Marketing and Communications in Australia for Natixis Investment Managers, one of the world’s largest asset managers. We look forward to welcoming Lucy back and hearing about her journey beyond the Green Gate!

Tickets are available here.

Parent-to-Parent Communication – WhatsApp
SCEGGS parents and carers may be familiar with the cohort emails used to communicate among parents. These will no longer be used from 2024. The primary method of facilitating parent-to-parent communication among the parents of your child’s cohort are via WhatsApp Groups. These are administered by Class Parents and the onus is on you to join the group by clicking here.

I look forward to meeting many of you over the year!
