Baradene Giving Week
The Baradene Giving Week campaign aims to raise $300,000 to contribute toward the cost of the equipment needed to complete the fit out of the new Baradene Gymnasium complex - a modern high-quality sports and learning facility including a double gymnasium (two side by side courts or one competition court, with spectator seating), a fitness centre, a commercial kitchen/café and three classrooms and offices.
With your support Baradene will have an exceptional sports and fitness facility for our students and a vibrant Baradene community hub
The equipment we need includes:
• Court equipment – posts, hoops, backboards, nets, dividing curtains and shot clock
• Fitness centre equipment – for specialist fitness and sports training
• Sports equipment – for athletics, archery, gym sports, volleyball, basketball, futsal, netball and other sports
• Audiovisual, electronics equipment and PA system
• Café/kitchen equipment and furniture
• Retractable bleachers
Why we need your support
We are grateful to the Proprietor, Baradene College Limited, for funding the building. However, the Board of Trustees is responsible for funding the $1 million cost to purchase equipment to fit out the complex and is asking the Baradene community to assist with this.
Thank you for your support!
From mid 2024, there will be new opportunities for all our students to be fit, active, participate in sport, and achieve their sporting goals, in many cases achieving sporting excellence, all while developing resilience, self-discipline, confidence, and healthy habits for life. For the first time, Baradene will be able to host indoor, inter school competition games with spectator facilities!
