A significant part of the Development Office’s role within the College is to welcome and engage with prospective families at one of our many events throughout the year, and to provide a snapshot of what life at Parade College is all about. For younger primary school aged children, our Manchester City Primary School Program allows Year 4 students from our Priority Parish Primary Schools the opportunity to participate in a series of skill development workshops with our incredible Manchester City Football School coaches, who are ably supported by our Sport Academy students. In Term One, Parade College welcomed the following schools: St Mary’s Thornbury, St Gabriel’s Preston, Sacred Heart Preston, St Catherine’s Lalor West, St Luke’s Lalor, Holy Trinity Eltham North. A big thank you to our Manchester City team and Sport Academy students for the amazing work they do in fostering a safe and positive atmosphere for the visiting primary school students and allowing them the chance to be a footballer at Parade for the day!
