Overview
The St Andrew’s Cathedral School’s Foundations aims to anticipate and provide for the funding needs of the students of St Andrew’s Cathedral School and Gawura now and in the future, over and above what is provided by school fees and government grants.
The Foundation actively manages a portfolio of investments and undertakes fundraising for specific purposes including:
- Gawura Scholarship Fund – raises the money to pay for the education of all Gawura students and secondary students on Gawura scholarship at St Andrew’s Cathedral School.
- St Andrew’s Cathedral School Building Fund – provides an important source of funding for capital projects. It plays a pivotal role in maintaining and improving school facilities. In 2022 and 2023, donations contributed to the renovation of our St Andrew’s House rooftop playground.
- Heath Bursary Fund – This fund supports St Andrew’s Cathedral School families who have been impacted by tragic circumstances such as serious illness, life-changing accidents, bereavements or other situations that severely disrupt family life. At such times, it is more important than ever for a child to continue to be part of the nurturing school community that has been a constant in their life.
- Choristers and Creative Arts and Performing Arts Fund – as a school we have a deep commitment to supporting cultural and artistic expression. This fund allows our work with the Choristers, Creative Arts and Performing Arts to continue and to thrive.
To achieve this, the Foundation actively involves the wider St Andrew’s Cathedral School community in a variety of initiatives and events including annual Giving Days, Trivia nights, Gala dinners and cocktail evenings. The generosity of the wider community benefits the students of St Andrew’s Cathedral School and Gawura significantly and is greatly appreciated by both schools.
