Alumni and Community Involvement

Alumni

Welcoming our Alumni

Ryde Secondary College is establishing its alumni program to help our former students keep in touch with us.

Being part of an alumni community can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience. The Ryde Secondary College Alumni Program is about celebrating and connecting our past students and inspiring and motivating our current students. We’re creating a space for Alumni to stay involved, share their achievements and experiences, and give back to the community.

Stay connected

We’re developing the program in partnership with Ourschool a not-for-profit service that helps public high schools build their alumni communities to benefit students and our school community and have a dedicated Alumni Program Coordinator on site.

If you attended Ryde Secondary College, or previously, Malvina High School, we warmly invite you to get in touch and become part of our Alumni Community.

No matter where you are in your career, we’d love to hear from you. We welcome all past students at all stages of their career. Your journey could inspire someone to follow their own dreams.

Parents and Citizens Association

Our Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) is a group of parents, carers and school community members. They assist with school planning, fundraising, events and volunteering. Our P&C works in partnership with our school to promote the interests of our school community. We are proud to be part of the public education system and are excited about the prospects for our school and its community.
