SPA advice and support

Year Level Representatives and the SPA Executive are available for advice about auxiliaries, clubs and opportunities in the School.

What if my son's activity isn't here?

Use the Teacher-in-Charge: The SPA has auxiliaries associated with only a few of the numerous programs and activities associated with the School. Often the Teacher-in-Charge of an activity needs support intermittently and may ask parents. By introducing yourself and offering help you may find there is already an activity that you could assist in.

Use OSCA: There are other Clubs associated with OSCA. Information is available through the OSCA link on the website. Clubs encourage Scotch Family members to join in:

School Based Clubs

There are many other clubs at the School such as Astronomy Club, chess, SCUBA, surf lifesaving to mention a few which are offered to students.
