Soiree For Su'u
We are so honoured to invite you and your club to our fundraising event for our international project, R.I.S.E. (Renovation in Su’u for Education). If we haven’t talked your ear off about it already, this project has been our baby for the past year and we have been working so hard to reach our goal of $25, 000.
We have quite literally worked nonstop to organise a renovation of an entire library that is currently rusted, termite-infested and is severely lacking books and usable work spaces. Our goal is to give the students of Su’u (a remote village on the island of Malaita in the Solomon Islands) a place where they can learn, relax and study, ultimately giving them the gift of education- something that could allow them to open any door and follow any dream they wish.
We already have $18, 000 of our goal and with this event, Soiree for Su’u, we are hoping to achieve our goal!
These are the details:
Location: The Ship Inn (Southbank)
Time: Sunday the 1st of December 11:00am - 3:00pm
Dress: Smart casual
Details: A Sunday afternoon of canapes and conversations with some performances from the best music students in Brisbane.

Meeting of the GOATs
Do you listen to music? Do you ever catch yourself humming a little tune? Or whistling a melody? It’s interesting how music is often there but not actively acknowledged. Come on down and take part in our interactive session with the one and only Lily Reichardt, our very own Vice President, who will impart her knowledge on the everyday importance of music!
What else do our meetings include? You can count on some “friendly” competition, updates on what we’re getting up to and a chance to recharge your social battery!
