In a welcome move all girls who have attended Victoria College are now deemed to be Old Girls and no fees will be charged in future. This will apply to staff who have served in the College too.
After 25 years of service as Treasurer Barbara Farris has stepped down . Under her meticulous accounting skills the bank balance is healthy. With e-mails we do not plan to post in future and the funds will be maintained by our new Treasurer, Ashleigh.
