Shore Parents’ Association Fundraising Update

Shore Parents’ Association Fundraising Update

In addition to our primary purpose of encouraging support and friendship amongst the Shore parent community, the Shore Parents Association (SPA) raises funds throughout the calendar year to help fund scholarships, bursaries and equipment across the three campuses. Funds raised by the SPA are spent within the following 12 months to benefit current students.

I am delighted to share that in 2022 the SPA raised over $230,000. These funds will be allocated across all campuses based on student numbers and go towards a wide variety of items, as detailed below:

  • Early Learning Centre: $14,200 to install an ‘Adventure Play’ area and several children’s outdoor tables.
  • Years K,1,2: $35,000 towards the refreshing of classroom areas.

  • Years 3 to 6: $31,800 to purchase new microphones, musical classroom instruments and new library shelving.
  • Years 7 to 12: $140,000 in aid of a portable PA system, microphones, rowing oars, a glockenspiel and a xylophone as well as a much-needed partial contribution towards a new slate roof for the Senior School Dining Hall.

On behalf of the SPA Executive, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the parents and friends of Shore who gave their time, effort, and energy to help raise such a significant sum. We welcome all parents to the SPA and more information is available on Lampada
