The College Foundation was established in 2013 to assist in the provision of ongoing financial support and resources so that the College can continue to offer young men a high quality Catholic education in the Augustinian tradition.

The role of the St Augustine’s Foundation is to engage the College community to assist in maintaining, developing and delivering exceptional educational outcomes through:

• The creation of a steady and reliable stream of gifts and donations by active fundraising to support the Foundation through the following funds:
  • Foundation Ancillary Fund to assist other areas of need at the College at the discretion of the Foundation.
  • Foundation Bursary Fund to assist students on means-tested bursaries.
  • Foundation Building Fund for capital works and building development.

The provision of a structured and ongoing parent, Old Boy (Alumni), staff and friends’ network to communicate and engage these groups with upcoming plans and College activities.

• The promotion of effective College community relations.
• The active encouragement of our College community to consider making a bequest to the College.

We have grown from our humble beginnings of 65 students in 1956 to an increasing enrolment of approximately 1,200 boys in Years 5-12. The College continues to embrace quality boys’ education, Augustinian spirituality, our Social Justice programmes, diverse and successful sporting and co-curricular activities, enhanced with highly qualified teachers and sophisticated technology. The strong sense of welcome and community that unites students, parents and dedicated staff is a unique and recognised feature of the College.

Tuition fees and Government funding cover most of the costs of your boy’s education. However, tuition fees do not provide all the funds needed to undertake ongoing major building projects and new capital works. The tax-deductible Foundation Building Fund is vital for the provision of any new buildings, projects and facilities.

The preservation and ongoing repairs, maintenance and improvements to existing College buildings are also serviced by the College Voluntary Building Fund. This tax-deductible voluntary contribution is available to current parents when paying the school fees.

The Foundation seeks philanthropic support for major building developments and campaigns, which is separate to the College Voluntary Building Fund.

In addition, the Foundation provides a Bursary Fund enabling our community to contribute towards future provision of bursaries to less fortunate students who qualify under the terms set out by the College Board.
