Voluntary Contribution


At Darwin High School we offer a rich and varied curriculum that engages students and equips them for life after school. The Voluntary Contribution maximises student access to the resources they need to achieve quality outcomes and personal success.

A message from the Darwin High School Board Chair

Dear Parents and Guardians

Darwin High School welcomes your voluntary contributions and Building Fund donations to help enhance our resources and facilities in 2026.

The School Board suggests a voluntary contribution of $250, however any amount is greatly appreciated. Your voluntary contributions in 2026 will help fund:

  1. Cooling solutions for student seating areas
  2. Beautification of school spaces
  3. Upgrades to student IT hardware

Additional support can also be offered through a Building Fund Donation. These funds support maintenance and improvements to school facilities. Donations are tax-deductible as the school holds Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status.

2025 Contributions – Lockers and Seating

Last year, nearly $17,000 in voluntary contributions funded five outdoor table settings and 30 new student lockers. Building Fund donations of $21,475 enabled the painting of seven classrooms. 

We sincerely thank all families for their generosity.

Thank You for Your Support

While contributions are voluntary, they make a significant difference in enhancing learning and facilities for all students. For more information, please contact our office.

Thank you for your continued support of Darwin High School. Together, we can make a lasting, positive impact on our students’ future.

Yours sincerely

Simon Niblock

Chair, Darwin High School Board
