Aloysius’ Annual Fund. <strong>The</strong>se gifts were directed to the<br />
purchase and installation <strong>of</strong> fifteen interactive whiteboards<br />
(‘smartboards’) and data projectors, the purchase <strong>of</strong> new<br />
educational materials <strong>for</strong> the <strong>College</strong> libraries and the<br />
provision <strong>of</strong> means-tested bursaries to boys who otherwise<br />
would not have the opportunity to attend the <strong>College</strong> and<br />
benefit from an Aloysian education.<br />
<strong>The</strong> success <strong>of</strong> the ‘smartboard’ trial has been very<br />
positive, so much so that the <strong>College</strong> is keen to see every<br />
boy benefit from their use; we have there<strong>for</strong>e decided to<br />
install one in each classroom throughout the <strong>College</strong>. In<br />
order <strong>for</strong> us to achieve this goal, we need to raise over<br />
$400,000 from the 2008 Aloysius’ Annual Fund to make<br />
this possible. Donations to the tax-deductible Building Fund<br />
will be directed to the purchase <strong>of</strong> interactive whiteboards<br />
and data projectors.<br />
With the roll out <strong>of</strong> the smartboards across the <strong>College</strong>,<br />
we will need to update a number <strong>of</strong> the computer systems in<br />
the <strong>College</strong> libraries. New computer hardware (computers,<br />
servers and monitors), as well as s<strong>of</strong>tware (computer<br />
programmes and applications), will be required not only<br />
to maintain the smartboards, but also to ensure that our<br />
boys and staff are able to get the most out <strong>of</strong> this exciting<br />
technology. Gifts made to the tax-deductible Library Fund<br />
will be directed to the purchase <strong>of</strong> this additional computer<br />
equipment and will also enable the <strong>College</strong> to purchase<br />
additional material <strong>for</strong> the <strong>College</strong> libraries.<br />
Each year, more and more boys are able to attend the<br />
<strong>College</strong> on means-tested academic bursaries through the<br />
generosity <strong>of</strong> the Aloysian Family. <strong>The</strong>se boys, who through<br />
their family’s economic situation would not normally have the<br />
opportunity to attend <strong>St</strong> Aloysius’, now have the opportunity<br />
to benefit from an Aloysian education. <strong>The</strong> presence <strong>of</strong><br />
these boys enriches the lives and education <strong>of</strong> all Aloysians.<br />
<strong>The</strong> cultural and socio-economic diversity <strong>of</strong> <strong>St</strong> Aloysius’ is<br />
something that sets us apart from other schools in Australia.<br />
Gifts made to the tax-deductible Bursary Fund will support<br />
and expand the <strong>College</strong> Bursary Programme.<br />
Gifts in support <strong>of</strong> the 2008 Aloysius’ Annual Fund can<br />
be made on the <strong>for</strong>m below and returned to the <strong>College</strong>.<br />
Gifts made prior to 30 June will receive a tax-deductible<br />
receipt <strong>for</strong> inclusion in 2007-2008 tax returns.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>College</strong> is humbled by the active generous support<br />
<strong>of</strong> so many members <strong>of</strong> the Aloysian Family. Ongoing<br />
financial support <strong>of</strong> the <strong>College</strong> will enable her to remain<br />
at the <strong>for</strong>efront <strong>of</strong> boys’ education in Australia.<br />
On behalf <strong>of</strong> the students, staff and Jesuits <strong>of</strong> the<br />
<strong>College</strong>: a sincere Thank You!<br />
