The King David School
  Past Parents Association



The Past Parents Association was formed to enable parents to maintain or renew friendships made during the time their children attended KDS and to foster ongoing involvement in the School’s activities. Many past parents continue to support the School in a number of ways: through service on School Council, providing assistance and advice in their area of professional expertise, supporting school functions, or just barbecuing sausages at the School Fete! The School welcomes your support and involvement wherever it is given.

The Past Parents Association plays an important role in the life of our School and our community, primarily in relation to the continuation of the values of the School, together with providing the pleasant ambience for past parents to enjoy renewed association, not forgetting the ever present funding needs of the School.

For some years the School has been substantially improving its educational facilities. It has come a long way in this regard, especially with the development and opening of the Magid Institute. Now the school is looking to turn its focus to the younger students and we believe that the Past Parents Association should make a concerted effort to support this. We have identified the upgrading of Sports Field (Oval) at the Magid Campus for years 3 – 8, a project costed in the vicinity of $180,000 as the project that we would like to support in 2006.

If you are as passionate as we are about the education of our grandchildren and future generations we would urge you to support the Oval Upgrade at Magid Campus.

Our suggestion is that each family contribute:
   a) $3,000 over a three year period, ($1,000 per year), or alternately if you have a desire for greater involvement
   b) $5,000 over1 or 2 years for Foundation 5000 membership.

If every past parent family supports the School in this way it will make a significant difference to the School, its facilities and the programs it can offer.

We hope that you will join us and look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Our aim is to give this important arm of our School a real lift for the valuable task of fundraising for the School as well as recapturing and reinvigorating those friendships that made our School such a valued part of ours and our children’s lives.
