On behalf of the Aquinas College Foundation, I would like to sincerely thank you for your generosity and the spirit in which you give. Established in 1997, the Foundation continues the College’s proud tradition of giving, supporting bursaries for families who may not otherwise access an Aquinas education, and contributing to essential projects that enrich the experience of all students.
What is particularly special is the way giving reflects the values at the heart of Aquinas, and the true spirit of the Edmund Rice tradition - connection, compassion, and a commitment to others - helping to shape the future of our College community.
As we look ahead, we are filled with optimism for the year to come and hope to continue building on this momentum - expanding our reach, deepening our impact, and supporting even more students on their Aquinas journey. We are truly grateful for your belief in our vision, and for the meaningful impact you are making, both now and for generations to come.

The Aquinas Centre will be a cultural landmark at the heart of our campus – a creative playground for possibility, where boys pursue excellence, discover the joy of performing and share their gifts with others. Featuring the McMillan Recital Hall with seating for more than 700, along with tutorial rooms, studios and practice spaces, it will be home to the arts at Aquinas and a vibrant venue for assemblies, lectures, concerts and community gatherings.
Your support is the difference between a good building and a remarkable one. There are many ways to get involved, from symbolic gestures like buying a brick or naming a seat, to family tributes and larger transformational gifts.
Since 2017, each Leaving Class has come together to fund a 50% bursary, giving a young person the opportunity to complete Years 11 and 12 at Aquinas College.
Inspired by the spirit of Edmund Rice, the Peer Bursary Gift opens the door to an Aquinas education for boys who may not otherwise have the chance, creating a lasting legacy of generosity and opportunity.
Recipients are selected based on demonstrated financial need, strong academic potential, and a commitment to making a positive contribution to both the College and the wider community.
