Scotch Parents
Valedictory
What a fantastic night Valedictory was for all involved! There were moments throughout the year where I thought it may not be possible for it to go ahead so it was even more special to be able to celebrate our 2020 leavers and thank our Year 12 Parents – some for the last time. Your contribution to our Scotch community has been greatly appreciated and you will all be missed.
Valedictory would never be possible without the help and hard work from so many individuals.
A HUGE thank you to the following helpers that worked tirelessly to pull a very successful Valedictory Dinner 2020 together…
- The 57 new Year 12 boys who gave up their Saturday night to be part of the celebrations and were fantastic waiters and ambassadors for Scotch
- To Claire, Chef Scott and the entire Scotch Catering team for preparing and delivering over 630 meals
- To the new cohort of Year 12 parents for their help in the lead-up, set-up and on the night – you worked tirelessly to ensure everything ran smoothly
- To Sonia Reed, Deb Pitter and all the team of fabulous 'flower arrangers' – the flowers were stunning!
- And to the exceptional Scotch team of Heidi, Matt, Mel and Pru – you made it all easy and your help and all your support was very much appreciated.
Scotch Parents AGM
The Scotch Parents AGM is this Wednesday 2 December in the Dining Room Annexe from 7pm. It is a great opportunity for you to come along and get some insight into what Scotch Parents is all about and hopefully think about being involved. I know that everyone is time-poor but the rewards from being part of such a vibrant and valuable association that greatly contributes to Scotch College are numerous. There will also be refreshments on offer and the opportunity for a last social outing before we break for the Summer holidays.
Many thanks to all of our Class and Year Reps for 2020 – you have pulled together many great activities and social events which have been very well attended, all whilst living through a pandemic! I am very excited that we already have new year group parent reps in the senior school for Years 10, 11 and 12 – if you are a soon to be Year 9 parent and would like to be involved please let me know.
Thank you all for your support of Scotch Parents in 2020, I have enjoyed my time as President and meeting so many enthusiastic parents. It has been a pleasure working with you. Even through COVID-19 and lockdown we managed some fantastic events and funded some incredible projects and infrastructure which our boys will benefit from in the years to come. I look forward to welcoming a new and energised committee to take us into 2021.
