Get Involved

The Association of Parents and Friends is a vibrant group of parents and guardians who are committed to building a strong school community and to raising ancillary funds to support our school and students. The P&F hold a number of community (friend-raising) and fundraising events throughout the year such as the Kirrikee Picnic Day early in the year and the Christmas Food and Wine Show that helps bring the year to a festive finale.

Through the P&F, Parent Convenors form informal groups within specific year groups to provide opportunities for our parents to meet and get to know each other. This is vital as our students and their families come to SACS from over 220 suburbs around Sydney.

While the P&F aims to support current parents, the School Foundation embraces the wider community. It works closely with the Parents and Friends Association (P&F), the Old Andrean’s Association (OAA) and our Friends of Gawura and Gawura Parent Group (GPAC) as well as staff, former staff and former parents of SACS (The Hessian Club). The Foundation publishes Elevate (an e-newsletter for the wider SACS community) and Friends of Gawura (for supporters of Gawura School).

The Foundation fundraises for a range of projects including Gawura,  the Heath Bursary Fund, as well as capital works campaigns and the SACS Building Fund. The Foundation runs the Foundation Uniform Store which also raises additional funds for St Andrew’s.

Our alumni are represented by the Old Andrean’s Association which works actively to build connections between the school and our former students. The OAA manages its own Facebook and web page and regularly hold reunions and events for alumni.
