SBC Old Boys' Foundation

A group of committed Old Boys have spearheaded the new SBC Old Boys' Foundation and invite past students, parents and friends of the College to join the Foundation to continue to support the growth and development of the SBC family and community.

The Foundation Charter works to raise the profile of the College in the wider community; encourage participation by current and past students and parents in College and Foundation events and raise funds to support the growth and development of the College.  To view the full charter, please click on the link below:
