GEORGIOU BUILDS ON RELATIONSHIP WITH LOCAL SCHOOL

The students at Balga Senior High School received a boost this week with the donation of much-needed computer equipment thanks to Georgiou!

As part of Georgiou’s partnership with Balga Senior High School through their Reconciliation Action Plan, we donated 50 iPads and 27 laptop computers to the school.

Chief Executive Officer Rob Monaci said the company is committed to engaging with the local community to demonstrate respect and provide mutually beneficial opportunities.

“Since 2014, Georgiou has worked closely with Balga Senior High School, donating more than $60,000 in funding and in-kind donations,” he explained.

“After visiting the school in September and through discussions with Principal Mark Carton, we realised more could be done. When we decided to upgrade our IT equipment, it was a no-brainer to send our surplus computers and iPads to the school.

“Balga SHS is a really unique school – the students came from such diverse backgrounds but are binded by their motto ‘Strength in Unity” which really resonates with Georgiou. We have a number of diverse businesses that come together as one to provide the best results to our clients. That alignment is really important to us in a community partnership and I look forward to further developing this relationship with Balga SHS into the future.”

Principal Mark Carton said the relationship between Balga Senior High School and Georgiou has continued to grow.

“Balga Senior High School is a unique program-based school with a student population of more than 40 different nationalities. But they all have one thing in common – technology and their capacity for computer-based learning and this donation will greatly assist this,” he explains.

“We have a great partnership with Georgiou – one that doesn’t only help the school and our students, but Georgiou and their people.”
