MCILDOWIE PARTNERS

McIldowie Partners recognise the Value of Listening. Working with their clients they ensure their aspirations, values and operational needs influence the design.

They do not impose a predetermined, fixed, non-negotiable ‘house design’, with every project being unique. And so is each and every McIldowie Partners response.

As leaders, innovators and creative thinkers, they respond to specific needs for specific sites interpreting and making visions and values tangible in a building. Buildings by McIldowie Partners assert the brief, without needlessly shouting.

They foster relationships, with these becoming the guiding force of all their projects and by extension the practice at large. Built in a workshop setting, the open exchange of ideas between all stakeholders breeds an intensity of vision and commitment specific to each project. This ensures projects can develop against shared goals and gives all parties an equal voice.

McDonald’s is a proud supporter of projects that give back to the community and have a measurable impact on the health and wellbeing of Australian children. They are proud to play an active role in neighbourhoods all over Australia.

McDonald’s is also committed to developing the arts, whether it’s through working collaboratively with the education sector or providing the funds for a young dancer to pursue a performance career, McDonald’s is committed to supporting programs that develop talent, build skills and support the learning of young people. Springvale McDonald’s has always been a very popular restaurant for the students and staff of Killester College. It has also been a valued employer of Killester students past and present.

BUXWEAR

Founded by Norman W. Buck in Melbourne’s fashion precinct in Flinders Lane in 1947, the BuxWear business originally produced fashion wear for the young women of the post-war era. As the Baby Boom took hold in the 1950’s, Norman W. Buck responded to the unprecedented demand for school wear, quickly gaining a reputation for sturdy and comfortable school uniforms that met the many demands of schools all over Australia.

BuxWear Online shopping allows parents an easy and convenient method of getting students in full uniform all year round. As an Australian Manufacturer they are committed to the ethical manufacturing and to that end are accredited with Ethical Clothing Australia.

CATHOLIC DEVELOPMENT FUND

The first Catholic Development Fund (CDF) was established in Melbourne in 1956 for the purpose of raising capital to build Catholic schools. It was originally called the Schools Provident Fund. In a city experiencing a post-war population boom, the Church built the Fund on the faith of the Catholic people, to whom the education of their children was of vital importance. Set up on a co-operative basis, the Fund allowed Catholics living in the more settled parishes of Melbourne to assist schools in the developing areas.

CAMPION BOOKS

Campion Education is owned and run by two Australian families and is the largest supplier of education resources to primary and secondary schools in Australia.

GENEVOSE COFFEE

The Genevose family came to Australia from Italy in 1950. In the late 60’s, Alfio decided that he needed to roast coffee that would resemble the true Italian style coffee that he knew and loved. As a result, A. Genovese & Sons was established in 1970.

From a small factory on Lygon Street, Brunswick, they soon established a following and a need to move. Since 1975 they’ve been at the iconic corner in Coburg, Melbourne. In 2002 the site expanded along Moreland Road into a state of the art Roasting Plant. In late 2013 the site underwent another expansion, with the addition of a second larger roaster and new plant, incorporating green and roasted coffee silos and an automated transport and blending system, a quality control laboratory, and a redesign of the showroom and training facility.

Not only do they remain committed to their heritage, they are advocates of sustainable practices, community initiatives and quality coffee.

They continue Alfio’s legacy, and are proud of all they produce and have achieved.

Thank you to all our sponsors. We are thrilled to have you all on board for the 2021 Killester Production.
