DIO TODAY

quick look back – it was with great pleasure that the Parents & Friends’ Committee hosted the annual year-end Cocktail Party in November 2019. This was a wonderful gathering to bring together parents and staff in celebration of our daughters’ achievements. This also provided the perfect opportunity to present our $150,000 donation towards the building of the new outdoor recreational areas surrounding the Junior School and Centennial Building. A second donation of $100,000 will be given to the School upon completion of the project in Term 2, 2020.

These newly developed spaces have been designed to benefit both the junior and senior students, providing exercise, recreation and learning spaces outside the classrooms. By making use of otherwise untouched spaces behind Centennial Building and reclaiming the areas that were previously fenced off around the Norfolk pines, the School has extended to the students more grounds for outdoor enjoyment and learning. Parents & Friends are proud to be a significant sponsor of this development.
