Somewhat delayed but no less delighted and pleased to announce this years Gala raised over $37,000!

So incredibly grateful of the support from this amazing community.
The funds raised from the Gala 2025 will go directly to supporting our kids to get exposure to specialist programmes such as Garden to Table and Music, Performing and Visual Arts.

The Learning Assistant program has also been extended in 2025, ensuring that every child receives the support they need to thrive.
But it doesn’t stop there! Gala funds help bring all sorts of exciting new resources and initiatives to enrich our students' learning experience, creating a nurturing environment for them to grow academically and socially.

See you next year! 🐐🍔🍣🥟🍦🎉🧑‍⚕️🧖🤸‍♀️🚒
