Bench seating

Concord High school is about to undergo a big transformation with the new development. There are however a few areas around the school that are in need of upgrades. Outside the side office is one of them. The P&C, with your help, would like to replace worn out bench seating with modern, high quality beautiful bench seating as pictured.

We would appreciate your donations to make this happen.

The P&C have a DGR (deductible gift recipient) building fund account and any donation above $2 is eligible to be claimed as a tax deductible donation. This fund is specifically to be used for the construction, improvement and maintenance of school buildings as stated  by the ATO. Donate before June 30th to claim the tax back.

DONATE

The school has transformed in the last 5 years thanks to donations from parents like yourself. We want to take this opportunity to thank you for any donations you have made in the past.

 

Mascot costume and more

We had a really exciting meeting discussing several funding requests and being able to vote to fund many exciting projects around the school. So far this year we have funded :

  • Lion dancers and French mime performer for Harmony Week
  • Year 10 peer support students to have a small part of camp fees covered to attend year 7 camp
  • Library furniture including 2 new sofas and new shelving
  • New robotics kits for use in class and lunch clubs
  • New sports uniforms for students representing the school
  • and the Magpie Mascot costume

We are about to undertake a project to fundraise for new seating outside the side office and will soon have our tax deductible “building fund” account ready to accept donations towards our goal of purchasing new benches. If you are eligible to claim tax you might want to consider a donation to help us with our goal of funding these new benches.

The Concord High School P&C received approval from the ATO to establish a tax deductible building fund from 18 February 2020. All donations to the fund over $2 are tax deductible. Donations to the Fund may only be used to acquire, construct or maintain school buildings & fixtures – as per the Australian Tax Office regulations – and we will fund only those projects discussed and approved at P&C meetings.

Our website team are working hard to have this up and running soon.

2024 Year 7 – Parents & Students night

Where: Club Five Dock
When: Thursday 14th March from 6:30pm – 8pm.

Come and meet other parents, with a short Q&A session where you or your year 7 student can ask a small panel of current year 8 students questions.

Senior Courtyard for Year 11 and 12

 

Another amazing achievement made possible by the hard work of  the grants team within the p&c is the redevelopment of the Senior Courtyard for year 11 and 12 students. Previously this area had poor drainage, leaf litter, was very gloomy and had just a few seats.  Significant work was undertaken to rectify this and provide the students with a wonderful place to hang out.

The P&C obtained a Community Building Partnership grant to provide shade sails and consulted with the student population to create this magnificent transformation of space. The furniture was also purchased through parent donations and reflects the desires of the student population. We are thrilled that the senior students have such a fantastic space to hang out in. There will be some additional planting planned for this area down the track.
