Giving to Craighead


Every gift counts. Gifts add a stepping stone into the future, ensuring our school can provide the very best educational opportunities within the very best learning and living environments for its students.

The spirit of giving, committed involvement and contribution from our Old Girls, Craighead Connect and families have been an integral force of Craighead for many years. Together they raise funds for much needed projects in different areas of the school. Everyone at Craighead is and has been extremely grateful to all those over the years who have supported the varied fundraisers.

We need to continue with this tradition of benevolence from our Craighead family. In order to see larger projects through to fruition, there will be a need to reach out to the wider community for their generosity and participation.

We have a three stage building project. Stage One – the new Boarding wing was completed in 2015, Stage two – a new Gymnasium and associated facilities was completed in May of 2018, so now we are at Stage three – the restoration of our beautiful Shand House.

The SOS campaign (Save our Shand) began a couple of years ago and we were thrilled with the response. Now with the Gymnasium project complete it is time to focus back on Shand and achieve a design that will be future proofed whilst  bringing it back to its former beauty. The Historic Places Trust came to visit last year and were impressed with the restoration plans.
