The Robb College Foundation

The Foundation is the means by which Robb College can look forward to maintaining and developing its reputation as one of the best Australian university colleges, and continuing to provide the wide range of services it has offered since 1960. The Foundation was established in 1988 as the fund raising arm of Robb to help maintain and improve facilities and services within the College.

To this date, the Foundation has funded accoustic and lighting improvements to the Dining Hall, hot water services in the residential courts, financially assisted with the sound-proofing of the music room, helped to purchase the computer equipment, refurbished common rooms and recently offers a $1,500 scholarship to an artistic and academically talented student entering first year at UNE, and a $3,000 scholarship to a student who shows sporting ability and academic achievements. In addition, this scholarship is also available for students who are potentially forced to leave College because of financial difficulties but are valuable contributors to College life.

We seek your help in ensuring that Robb College and its community remains a vital and widely respected part of the education scene in Armidale and throughout Australia.
