Kinross Wolaroi School Foundation
The Kinross Wolaroi School Foundation was established in 1987 and has contributed to the School's growth through significant capital raisings to fund the acquisition the School’s farming properties and the construction of school buildings and by helping with scholarships and bursaries for students.
Despite the present strength and recent achievements of Kinross Wolaroi, the School must continue to develop its facilities and to insure against other factors which may threaten the School's independence. Government funding, economic and enrolment fluctuations, and future physical and educational requirements are such examples.
The Kinross Wolaroi School Foundation acts as Trustee for three Trust Funds:
· The Scholarship Fund
· The Building Fund
· The Education Fund
