1 Building Fund – Stage 2 Solar Panels
With a commitment to achieving our sustainability goal of Net Zero by 2030 at Loreto, we are about to embark on Stage 2 of our Solar PV panels implementation. In winter 2021 the 182kwP system for Stage 1 was commissioned and to date has generated enough solar energy to enable a 35% reduction in grid electricity consumption on campus. Stage 2 is more ambitious and aims to take us to a 60% reduction by 2023. At just $300 for a panel, this is a great opportunity to play a small part in our net zero target.
2 Building Fund – Mary Ward Wing Redevelopment
The Mary Ward Wing redevelopment will see a complete fit-out of 12 classrooms and informal learning spaces across Level 1 and 2 of our largest Senior School building. This completes our journey over the past five years to bring the College’s learning environment to a standard fit for modern pedagogy and into flexible spaces to accommodate future needs. Work is set to commence from Term 3 2022 and we are seeking donations to support the project in reaching its objectives.
3 Scholarship Fund – Gonzaga Barry Bursaries
Mother Gonzaga Barry ibvm was the foundress of Loreto Education in Australia. Her passion for girls’ education had a significant influence on the development of education across Australia. The Gonzaga Barry full academic bursaries offer a free place for girls whose families are otherwise could not afford a Loreto education. Our aim over the coming years is to build giving circles through regular donations from our Loreto community, whether annual, monthly or weekly commitments.
