Our Supporters

Making a difference

Philanthropic support enables St Catherine’s to create opportunities beyond those provided through the school’s traditional means. It can help us widen access to a St Catherine’s education, enrich the experiences available to our students, bring new ideas and initiatives to life and invest in ambitious projects with a lasting impact on the school.

There are many ways to support St Catherine’s

Giving financially is one important way our community supports the school, but it is not the only one.
Our supporters also share their time and expertise, create opportunities for students, introduce us to organisations and individuals who share our passion for education, provide gifts and services in kind, sponsor programmes that enrich our school community and develop partnerships that can add real value to school life.
Whether you are a parent, alumnus, forever (former) parent, friend of the school or organisation, there are many ways to play a part.

Giving at St Catherine’s

Together for Tomorrow

The Together for Tomorrow Fund is St Catherine’s annual community giving programme, bringing our community together to make additional opportunities possible for students across the school, including:

• IB Scholarships
• Home Project Scholarships
• Fulbright Fellowships
• The Bursary fund
• Catherine’s Community Fund

Every gift matters. Together, contributions from parents, alumni, staff, families and friends can create tangible opportunities and demonstrate what our community can achieve collectively.

Major Giving

Some of the school’s biggest dreams for our students require significant philanthropic investment.

Major gifts can enable individuals, families and organisations to make a substantial difference to a priority they care about, from widening educational opportunity to supporting transformational projects for the future of St Catherine’s.

These relationships are personal, and we welcome the opportunity to understand what matters to you and explore where your support could have the greatest impact.

Thank you to our supporters

Everything made possible through philanthropy begins with someone choosing to support St Catherine’s.

We are deeply grateful to our families, alumni, staff, organisations and friends whose generosity, time, expertise and belief in our school help us create more opportunities for young people. In recent years, these initiatives have included:

• The opening of our inspiring Upper School featuring unique spaces for a variety of learning experiences, from design technologies to science labs, a welcoming library and IB study spaces to a state-of-the-art theatre.
• Building Bridges to Tomorrow creating outdoor spaces and funding the development of a pedestrian bridge connecting our two sites. We look forward to celebrating the completion of the bridge by the end of 2026.
• Our partnership with The Home Project welcoming children into our school for the entire length of their academic journey from Reception to Year 13.
• The introduction of our IB Scholarship programme
• Enhancements to our outdoor learning and recreation areas
• Sponsorship of extraordinary student programmes and initiatives, including CAS projects that enable our students to amplify the positive impact they can make in our wider community.
• Mentorship and internships provided in partnership with our Futures team

Support for these efforts and many others strengthens St Catherine’s today and helps us build for the generations that will follow.
