Parents' Association Funded Projects
Each parent's investment in the college is measured by the achievements and success of our children in all aspects of their lives and their school career, including:
• Academic achievements
• Sporting achievements
• Cultural and music achievements
• Emotional well-being
• Comradeship
• And more
Cornwall Hill College operates as a non-profit organisation with school fees covering salaries and operational costs. The school runs at break-even without the pressure to generate a return on investment for shareholders. “Wish-list” facilities are often only attainable with the help of additional funds raised.
The Parents' Association raises money to enhance the lives of our children and maximise their experience at Cornwall Hill College. |
