IGNITE A SPARK AND MAKE YOUR MARK - CAPITAL CAMPAIGN

The ESSTEAM™ Studio Capital Campaign is one of the most ambitious fundraising campaigns the school has ever undertaken.

As a community we came together and raised over $2 million to enable us to build the ESSTEAM™ Studio which will open to our students in early 2023. This is a significant achievement and one that we can all be very proud of. Thank you to each and every donor including our Major Supporters and Spark donors.

Li Choo & Caitlin

Caitlin Chesson (Year 5) The thing I most enjoy about the ESSTEAM program is that it’s fun and different to what I’ve experienced before. Mrs Clarke is very enthusiastic about ESSTEAM™ and she always pushes us to try our hardest and learn from our mistakes.

Li Choo Tay I supported the ESSTEAM™ program because I think it is so important for girls to learn about entrepreneurship, to learn how to take calculated risk, to learn to be creative without being self-conscious. And I think the ESSTEAM™ program teaches the girls all of that. And it gives the girls a chance to be themselves, to explore the unexplored.

Mark & Allegra

Allegra Pozzi (Year 5) The ESSTEAM™ program is a subject at St Hilda’s which helps students like me to build entrepreneurial skills: teamwork, bravery, confidence, and anything else you need to be an entrepreneur.

Mark Pozzi I chose to support the ESSTEAM™ program really because if I can give something back to both my children but also to the community it’s just going to give them such a head start. I never got to think outside of the box. I think these girls get to learn without a box. And I think, from their perspective, it’s tools that I never had or never thought I’d need until I was older. To give that to them at such a young age is so important.
