What an exciting time this is in the life of Macarthur with the commencement of building works for the Warren Integrated Studies HUB. God, in his providential care of the School, has enabled the commencement of a wonderful new building as part of the wider ISB Precinct with seed funding from the generosity of parents and friends through previous Annual Appeals and Annual Fundraising Dinners. Thank you to those families who have given so generously over the past to this seed funding, which allowed us to undertake essential design works and seek Local Council approvals to build. Thank you also to those who have given to other building projects over the years. Your legacy is obvious for all to see.

The Warren Integrated Studies HUB is a $12.5m project that is part of a broader Masterplan for the development of the campus. The Masterplan provides for an Integrated Studies Precinct ($20.5m when completed) of which the Warren Integrated Studies HUB is a major component. Phase Two of the precinct includes the repurposing of the to be vacated D&T buildings into six Mathematics Rooms and the addition of several Visual Arts Studios and a Gallery.

The Warren Integrated Studies HUB itself is split into Phase 1A and 1B. The final scope of the project to be completed in this Phase very depends on the generosity of supporters.

The School is very thankful to those who have either pledged money towards this project or already donated money. The early success of this fundraising effort is a testament to the community nature of this School.

Giving Success

Independent Schools like Macarthur historically cover 90% of capital development costs through parent donations and accumulated surpluses over many years. Very little money is available through Government Grants. In this project, Macarthur has been fortunate to receive a $500,000 Federal Government Grant for the Beavis Mathematics Rooms, which is part of Stage 2 of this current project. 

For the first time in the School's history, a Capital Campaign was launched to assist in developing this project. The campaign has been very successful, which has meant the project was able to proceed. A very lofty goal of raising $3 million was set, with donations so generous that Stage 2 commenced earlier than expected. To date, $2.6 million has been pledged, with $1.8 million already donated.
