St Hilda’s has a vibrant and caring community which comes together to embrace new families, support current students and parents.
Being a member of one or more of our support groups provides an opportunity to meet new people, establish friendships and be part of life at St Hilda's. We are fortunate to have the support of a successful community which freely gives its time and expertise.

Whitby Parents, formed in 1981, provides the opportunity for parents of former students to keep in touch with the School and with each other through informal, social occasions held biannually. It provides a forum of fun and friendship, allowing parents to reconnect well beyond the days of their daughter’s secondary education. Membership of Whitby Parents is automatic on your youngest daughter leaving St Hilda's and there is no subscription fee.
If you would like to get involved or your contact details have changed, contact our Coordinator, Sami Tadros, on 0419237207 or email.
Supporting Cocurricular activities
We also have the following groups that provide assistance for our Junior School and Senior School Cocurricular staff throughout each year:
FOLASH (Friends of the Library at St Hilda’s)
These volunteers assist in a variety of tasks from categorising, magnetising and shelving books to helping coordinate displays and Book Week activities.
MASH (Friends of Music at St Hilda’s)
These volunteers assist the Music Department with a variety of activities and functions. This includes setting up for performances, assisting in serving refreshments or helping distribute promotional information.
DASH (Friends of Drama at St Hilda’s)
DASH assists the Drama Department with a variety of productions. Volunteers help with everything from designing and making costumes, make-up, prop productions and set painting.
SupPORT (Friends of Sport at St Hilda’s)
There are a large number of House and Inter-School sporting activities across St Hilda’s. The level of parent support varies considerably depending on the sport involved. The Head of Sport contacts parents according to their daughter’s involvement if help is required.
Rowing Support
Rowing is offered for girls in Years 9-12. We have a dedicated group of parents who provide support for rowing regattas, camps and social events.
Volunteers in these groups are called upon on an ‘as needs’ basis. If you would like to be on our volunteer list for any of these groups, we would love to hear from you. Please email or call us on 9285 4256.
