On the 5th of June Alumni, Parent and Committee Member Dennis Wong (Class of 1997) presented Year 12 with their Class of 2026 school jerseys.

The Alumni Association is proud to gift Year 12 jerseys as a symbol of this lifelong connection. Thank you to Dennis for sharing the importance of staying connected beyond school. His message was a reminder that while Pittwater House alumni pursue many different paths around the world, we remain united by our shared Pittwater House experience and values.

PHAA's Alumni Careers Breakfast was held last Friday in the Great Hall!

We were delighted to welcome 30 alumni and parent helpers who generously shared their career journeys, experiences and insights with over 200 students. The event provided a wonderful opportunity for students to ask questions, explore future pathways and make valuable connections with members of our school community.

A huge thank you to our alumni and parent volunteers for giving their time and inspiring the next generation. We are also grateful to 2KF Espresso - Pittwater House Alumni Kristy Rempt 2kf Espresso for providing a beautiful breakfast that helped make the morning such a success.

We look forward to many more Alumni Careers Breakfasts to come!

Last Friday, Sebastian Davies-Mills (President of the PHAA) and Monique Mackenzie (Board Member and PHAA Committee Member) represented the PHAA at the Welcoming Ceremony for new Principal, Dr Steven Middleton.

Sebastian welcomed Dr Middleton into the school community on behalf of the alumni and presented him with two framed photos from the Founder’s personal archive.

The first is a photo of the whole school in 1962, signed by each of the foundation boys. The second is a panorama of the first building under construction at the Collaroy campus, the Rex Morgan Foundation Wing. Both are tied to the theme of growth and show how far we’ve come since our School’s foundation. We’re looking forward to what comes in the future under Principal Dr Middleton.

Last month, Alumni members Ewan Gillespie (2022), Olivia Butcher (2022) and Bridget Boyd (2023) returned to Pittwater House to meet with Year 11 students for a Q&A session.

They enjoyed sharing practical advice on navigating Years 11 and 12, staying organised, and prioritising wellbeing while preparing for life after school.

It was wonderful to see our Alumni reconnect with the Pittwater House community and give back in such a meaningful way.
