The Thistle - An E-Newsletter of Scotch College, Perth, Western Australia

Scotch Auxiliary

We are pleased to inform the College community that at our AGM last Monday the Scotch Auxiliary unanimously supported our merger with the Parents' Association to form 'Scotch Parents'. Thank you to all the parents who attended and supported this significant change, one which we are confident will enhance our school community. We will now await the upcoming Parents' Association AGM to formalise this process. It is planned that an interim Committee will be formed from both support groups until our inaugural 'Scotch Parents' AGM next year.

It has been another busy and enjoyable year for the Scotch Auxiliary, supporting 26 events for our boys and parents. Our sincere appreciation to all the parents who have volunteered and lent a helping hand. We couldn't do it without you and we hope you had fun!

The Year 12 Parents Thank You Morning Tea was held immediately after our AGM, to show our appreciation and thank the many parents who have helped over their years at the College. While some parents will be leaving our College, we look forward to continuing these friendships.

We also thanked and farewelled Dr. Rob McEwan for his outstanding leadership and contribution to our Senior School and College over the past four years. He leaves our College stronger. We wish Rob all the best at The Hutchins School and look forward to hearing of his family's endeavors in Tasmania.
