SUPPORT Support for local school
DONATING COMPUTER EQUIPMENT Over the past two years Brickworks has supported their local school, Horsley Park Public School in NSW, by donating monitors, tablets and computers. Brickworks has also organised the installation of an interactive TV in one of the support unit classrooms, to provide students with new and advanced learning resources. The two TVs most recently donated have been installed in the school’s office and are being used for the visual display of photos, and professional training during meetings.
Workplace generosity
BRICKWORKS FAMILY COMES TO ISLA’S AID In November 2018, Isla, the 15-month-old daughter of Josh Gancs, a Bristile Roofing factory employee, had been diagnosed with an Ependymoma brain tumour. The team was heartbroken to learn of this terrible news and pledged to do what they could to assist the family in their time of need. The Austral Precast team organised a fundraising BBQ for Isla that same week and raised $1,753. After a few, quick phone calls a further $1,150 was donated by generous suppliers. This brought the total amount raised by the team to $2,903. This amount will contribute to the existing $17,948 raised so far by staff at Brickworks and those in the wider community that know Isla and her family.
