Copies of this edition of Cite are being sent to 96,700 Curtin alumni around the world, to maintain contact with members of the extended Curtin ‘family’ and keep them informed of their University’s progress. One of our important recent initiatives was the establishment of the Offi ce of Advancement to enable us to build a cohesive philanthropic culture within Curtin. The next stage of development – the Curtin University Foundation – was offi cially launched by Curtin’s new Chancellor Dr Jim Gill. The Foundation, with prominent external board members including WA businessman Gene Tilbrook, will lead the philanthropic culture within Curtin and nurture our stakeholder relationships. Gene brings substantial fi nancial management experience as well as a particular interest in the arts and education. I wholeheartedly welcome him to his new role. More than $2.3 million has already been received by the Foundation this year, including a generous contribution by former Chancellor Gordon Martin. My husband and I have also made a personal contribution. I also thank other individual donors such as Malcolm and Tonya McCusker, whose foundation recently donated $400,000 to help fund research into alcohol-related problems (see cover story). Another dedicated supporter is Dr Ian Bernadt, who has donated many wonderful artworks to the John Curtin Gallery over the years (page 14). Other donors have rewarded academic excellence with scholarships and new awards. Such individuals, and many generous corporations and patrons, know and appreciate the work we are doing at Curtin to help better society in innumerable ways. ON BEHALF of the University I thank all those who contribute to a better future for the next generation through their generous support. With our exciting plans for the future in a time of reduced government funding, we appreciate more than ever the eff orts of our alumni and friends of the University to help forge new partnerships and to spread the word about our commitment to excellence in research, teaching and global citizenship. As Dr Jim Gill says in this magazine (page 32), ‘The more we listen, collaborate and are appreciated as adding value, the more opportunities will occur for us and the parties with whom we collaborate’. We hope you enjoy reading this edition of Cite. We are proud of its contribution to the culture and character of Curtin at home and abroad.

  • April 2019 Exceptional Schooling
    APR NEWS Garden Party Raises the Roof The Raise the Roof Garden Party held on February 21 at the McCusker residence was a wonderful occasion to celebrate the campaign’s successes so far. The event highlighted the amazing goodwill amongst the community towards the auditorium project and it was affirming to hear School Patron Malcolm McCusker and our School Board Chair Dr Ken Michael reiterate their full support for our fundraising efforts. Soon after the Garden Party, our School Patron Malcolm McCusker and his wife Tonya announced they would be contributing half a million dollars to the auditorium project via the McCusker Charitable Foundation. This donation came hot on the heels of a generous donation of one hundred thousand dollars by School Board member and parent, Dr Nicholas Waldron and his wife Dr Heidi Waldron. The campaign also received several other large donations of ten thousand dollars plus. Since reaching our fundraising target for Stage 1, a 500-seat functional auditorium, the WA Education Department arranged a tender for an architectural firm to undertake revised drawings and to see the project through to completion. The successful bidder was Site Architectural Studio. The School is now working with Site to ensure the very best of design principles are implemented and that the final design is cost effective. As the final step, project documents will be submitted to Treasury for endorsement by the Expenditure Review Committee as the auditorium is a significant State Government undertaking. Once endorsed, the plans will then go to tender for the build. We are anticipating building will commence later this year.
