Foundation Breakfast

Thank you to everyone who attended the annual Saint Ignatius' College Foundation Breakfast which was held on Friday 25 June. Although we had planned to hear from Dr Brendan Nelson AO (Class of 1975), the Sydney lockdown had other plans for us and we look forward to welcoming him again in the future. The Foundation Board and I enjoyed a lovely start to the morning with current and past parents, the College Captains, Old Ignatians, as well as members from College Leadership, College Board, Parents and Friends Association, Old Ignatians’ Association and Fidelis.
On behalf of the Foundation Board I offer my thanks to those who attended on the day, to those who donated and those who purchased tickets in the raffle. It was a successful event and raised much needed funds for the College Bursary Program. I would also like to thank our community donors, Shaw + Smith, Art Innovations Gallery, College Uniform Shop, Parents and Friends Committee, Peter Shearer MenswearSALIFE magazine, Yonder Hills and Stella Waugh for their generosity in supporting the Foundation raffle.
