Two out of three

Two out of three ain’t bad

Meatloaf – not the homemade delicious kind, but the rock star – once sang, “Two out of three ain’t bad”. Whilst that may ring true for a sad love ballad, when it comes to more concrete products the song falls drastically short. Perplexed? Read on.

We have committed to develop a state-of-the-art three-storey building for our children, with plans to break ground in the school holidays. It’s a much-anticipated event and one which will bring many benefits to our kids and help create their bright future. 

As we currently stand, we have raised $7.5 million. And whilst that’s a wonderful start, it’s $2.5 million short of the $10 million that we need to complete the building. With apologies to Meatloaf, in this instance, two out of three sadly is bad.

What options do we have?

Well, building only two storeys is not an option. With an increased demand for contemporary pluralist education, enrolments are at an all-time high. Over the past decade, Emanuel has welcomed 170 additional students, leaving the School bursting at the seams.

This new building will help accommodate this significant student growth and bring the campus in line with 21st century educational practices. It will provide increased space for our Primary students and benefit the whole school with its flow-on effects, providing additional space, learning opportunities and targeted facilities for all.

The future is in your hands

Yes, the future is in your hands. And every dollar really does count!

Please help us to create a bright future for our children and our children’s children, today. Please don’t put it off until tomorrow or next week. Your help is needed now. And it’s so easy to donate – just visit ourbrightfuture.com.au – with a few clicks we will be one step closer to that third, essential floor of learning.
