The Foundation Mission

Our secure future as a leading Australian girls' school is developed through the financial support of the members of The Abbotsleigh Foundation, a company limited by guarantee, established in 1976. The Foundation's objective is to build a strong endowment to sustain Abbotsleigh's prosperity and capacity to provide a first class education for future generations of families seeking quality and excellence in their daughters' education.
