Chancellor State College is without doubt a high performing and highly regarded educational institution.
We have very strong student learning outcomes, excellent college/community
relationships, and excellent staff, volunteers and support from our P&C and
College Council.
Additionally
we had our first Year 12 graduates leave our classrooms in 2008 and go on to
live productive lives, some within this geographical community and many others
some distance away – but all of them members of the Chancellor family.
All of these elements, along with our status as an Independent Public School, provides us with the impetus to look at establishing a mechanism for engaging our former attendees and graduates. To this end, Chancellor State College has
established an Alumni.
As identified
in the IPS Philanthropy and Partnerships documentation, educational
philanthropy is the “planned and structured giving of actions, money and
resources designed to improve schooling experiences and outcomes”. The
establishment of an alumni encourages former attendees and graduates of the
college to volunteer, donate money or in kind gifts or advocate for the
college.
The
objectives of the project are:
Create stronger connections (networking) between alumni, alma mater, current students and the community.
Celebrate the success of alumni by promoting/sharing stories to students, staff and the community.
Further strengthen the transition for current students as they move into work and further study.
Create opportunities for alumni to contribute back into the alma mater.
The alumni will be governed through a small, representative Governance Group (GG) that will manage the implementation of the alumni and provide feedback to the
key stakeholders.
The Governance group is comprised of:
an executive team representative
two staff representatives – Jayme Field and Kathleen Edwards
a College Council representative – Len Falknau
a P&C representative
a community member – Amanda Poeppmann
a USC representative – Anita Edmonds
the Year 12 Co-ordinator
a student ambassador
