On Wednesday 20 November PLC Sydney held its second Giving Day, marking a memorable day for our school community.
This year, we are proud to introduce a new scholarship called the Miss Audrey Keown OAM Boarding and Academic Scholarship.
Miss Keown, who taught at Croydon for 43 years, spearheaded PLC Sydney’s award-winning speech and drama programs and became the heart of the school’s Boarding program, nurturing students from regional Australia in particular. She was an advocate for the education of young women and was awarded the Order of Australia Medal for Education.
The day honoured PLC Sydney’s legacy of education and the invaluable gift of learning, with every donation going directly to our Scholarship Fund.
PLC Sydney is immensely grateful for the generosity shown by parents, alumni, staff, and friends. Their support through the Annual Giving Program allows us to offer the very best educational opportunities to our greatest asset—our girls and their future.
Through the kindness of our matching donors, including the Ex-Students' Union, every donation made on Giving Day was matched dollar for dollar.
Special thanks go to our parent and staff volunteers, who joined us in the Giving Day Operations Room, reaching out to nearly every member of our community to ensure all had the opportunity to pledge their support.
Because of our community’s incredible generosity, PLC Sydney raised $386,800.00 for the future education of our girls.
To everyone who contributed to Giving Day, thank you. Together, we’re able to extend the gift of a PLC Sydney education to more young women, empowering them to make an impact in their communities and beyond.
