St John’s Grammar School Foundation – helping every child to learn to soar.

The St John’s Grammar School tradition is continued with the Foundation; connecting generations of old scholars, parents and friends, local businesses and the community with present generations of students, who will also one day look back on their education with the highest regard.

St John’s Grammar School Foundation will secure the School’s financial independence by providing a fiscal basis for the School to continue its ongoing development. The Foundation will provide the school with a pool of funds to support its growth.

Foundation Funds

The St John’s Grammar Foundation has three core components that people can donate to:

St John’s Grammar Foundation Fund

Donations toward the ancillary fund will support all aspects of the Foundation and will be used to fill any shortfall in funding for any projects.

St John’s Grammar Building Fund

The Building Fund will provide money for acquiring, constructing or maintaining the School buildings, over and above the capital works achieved with Capital Levy and Government Grant monies.

St John’s Grammar Scholarship Fund

Donations toward the Scholarship Fund will provide money for scholarships for students who would not otherwise have an opportunity to have an education at St John’s Grammar School.
