Auction of Promises 2023

This online auction allows friends and supporters of QEGS Penrith to bid on our fantastic auction lots donated by our QEGS family and local businesses.

The funds raised will go towards helping the school raise money to buy those items they cannot buy through normal funding, but which makes for a better experience for our children during their years at QEGS Penrith. The Friends of QEGS have been raising money to replace one of the school minibuses. We almost have enough money to buy a (new to us) minibus and we hope that this auction will raise the remaining money to allow us to have this minibus in place ready for the children starting back at school in September.

Once the auction is underway, you can place bids on any items you would like to bid for and you can choose to be notified if you are outbid.

Huge thanks to Poppins Painting & Decorating Supplies of Penrith who have kindly donated towards the costs of online hosting.

There are no additional fees to pay on top of the amount you bid

If you are the lucky winner, we will send you a payment link to pay FQEGS directly.

Thank you and good luck!

The Friends of QEGS is the parent body of Queen Elizabeth Grammar School, so includes everyone with a child at the school. The committee are just the current caretakers of the group- no more qualified for the role than any other parent- and we rely heavily on support from all of you. We see our role simply as helping in any way we can. This can be serving teas and coffees at school events, helping run the uniform shop and organising social events. Fundraising is also a large part of the group’s role- we look to help the school raise money to buy those items they cannot buy through normal funding, but which makes for a better experience for our children during their years at QEGS.
