Giving
There are many opportunities to be part of the Brigidine College community through parent support, gifts made by our local businesses, financial bequests or time and dedication by our broader community and partners.
Giving at Brigidine
Brigidine College is much more than a place of education, it is a vibrant giving community. The opportunity to give allows for several planned developments, refurbishment projects and support of our Bursary program.
There are many ways to support the Giving program at the College such as participating in our annual Giving appeal, supporting Alumni Giving campaigns, leaving a legacy through a bequest, funding scholarships for those who otherwise would not be able to attend Brigidine, and supporting our building programs.
We invite you to join us and the College Community by supporting one of Brigidine’s tax-deductible funds. We thank you for your kind support. Every gift is greatly appreciated, no matter how big or small, so together we can make an indelible impact for todays and tomorrow’s generation of young women.
Take a Seat!
We each remember our days and journey at Brigidine in our own way with a great sense of belonging and connection. We invite you to commemorate your time or your daughter’s and connection with the College by ‘Taking a Seat’ in the Murray Theatre as a lasting way to secure your legacy at Brigidine.
It is exciting that seats have been given in the names of students, families, staff, sisters, mothers and daughters. It is endearing to see these plaques with names and dates in many rows in the Theatre and we hope you or your daughter will join them.
The cost for an inscribed plaque on the back of a seat is $500 and is tax deductible.
Change Her Life
Education is a gift.
We invite you to support Brigidine’s Bursary Fund. Our vision to ensure we can support girls in our community with a Brigidine education that provides strong values and gives girls confidence in their abilities and talents depends on your generosity so that the fund is sustainable into the future. The impact of a bursary can have a tremendous life changing effect on lives and provides invaluable support to families who have experienced loss or hardship.
Your gift is tax deductible and will benefit and help young women, providing a stable continuing education knowing that a Brigidine education can certainly change a life.
Change her life - Give today, help change tomorrow
Give today, inspire tomorrow.

College Development
As with most independent schools, Brigidine College uses tuition fees to pay for the operating costs of the school. These fees do not include a levy for assets or provide capital for major projects or upgrades. Therefore, when major building projects are needed to maintain the standard of teaching, resources and to facilitate 21st century learning, the College relies on the generosity of its community to help fund and deliver those projects.
Building developments provide specialist facilities which benefit the students and create inspiring learning environments. This support is highly valued and integral to the successful and ongoing development and advancement of the facilities at our College. Our girls are now enjoying the benefits of these impressive facilities.
For further information or to discuss how you can help the girls and College please contact Luther Symons, Business Manager at the College on (02) 9988 6200 or lsymons@brigidine.nsw.edu.au
