Scotch Parents

March Out is always a very special occasion and a lovely and moving tribute to our leaving Year 12 boys. Whilst this year's March Out looked slightly different to previous years, the morning was still a celebration of their schooling years and the lasting friendships they have made. On behalf of all parents, we wish you all the best of luck for your final exams and thank you for your wonderful leadership and for being amazing mentors for our younger boys.

The next Scotch Parents meeting will be held at 9am, Tuesday 27 October in the Dining Room Annexe. We have invited all of our departing Year 12 parents to attend morning tea after a very short meeting so that we can thank you for your valuable contribution to our parent community throughout your years at Scotch.

On behalf of Scotch Parents we would like to extend a very warm welcome to our new Head of Junior School, Maria Hodges. We look forward to meeting you over the coming months.

Join the Committee

As I have a son who has just started Year 12, I will be vacating the role of President at the AGM in December. Long serving committee member Amanda Harris and Vice President Monika Narula will also be stepping down. We are looking for some new and energetic parents to join the committee in 2021. It is always a lot of fun and a great opportunity to be involved with the Scotch parent community. If you are interested in finding out more please contact us at scotchparents@scotch.wa.edu.au.
