Fathers' Association

The Fathers' Association was formed in 1961. Its mission is to give support to activities for boys outside the classroom.

We also provide an informal link between the School, boys, masters and parents.

Role and contribution at Grammar

Contributions by the Fathers' Association cover every aspect of School life and include:

Hosting and operating the Welcome to New Parents' Evening, the Prefects' Dinner, Masters' Dinner, Careers Evening and Subject choice Evenings

Arranging informal functions which provide parents with the opportunity to meet others at the School, discuss issues and make friends;

Support of sport via funding of new equipment, team kits and special tours;

Support of the arts, cadets and many other activities offered at the School;

Providing the boys with tangible support through the provision of the best BBQ in the GPS at all School home games at Weigall. To volunteer for the next BBQ roster go to Weigallbbq.com.

Fundraising raffles to provide for a wide range of activities for the boys at the School.

Every father of a boy at the School is encouraged to join the Fathers' Association. Even if you have time constraints and are not able to contribute as a committee member, your membership will be rewarded through seeing the activities of the Association continue to flourish.

If you would like to join the Fathers’ Association please fill in and return the Life Membership Application form and join us for our meetings on the first Wednesday of every month during term time, beginning at 6.00 pm. Meetings generally last no longer than an hour and are held in a convivial and constructive atmosphere.

We need the support of ALL fathers for the Association to function.
