Community
Parents and Friends
TIGS P&F warmly welcomes all families to connect and be a part of our vibrant community
TIGS Parents and Friends (P&F) is an important group within our School, encouraging families to belong and get involved in our school community. The P&F offers opportunities to play a role in school events such as the annual TIGS Great Fete. It is also a great way to contribute to conversations between home and school, parents and teachers as we value the unique perspective of each community member.

Alumni
TIGS Community is a Flourishing part of school life, supporting and encouraging the next generation of TIGS Alumni.
Over the past 60 years, TIGS Alumni have taken the benefits of their leading education all around the world. Alumni are invited to re-connect with the School so that they can find out about upcoming events including reunions, subscribe to publications and share their journey with us since leaving TIGS.
Foundation
TIGS Foundation consists of TIGS Community members committed to giving their time and resources in a voluntary capacity, for the benefit of our children, premises and school community. Foundation Boards exist in almost all private schools. They traditionally have a long history and are embedded in the fabric of the schools’ being. TIGS Foundation is just that, starting in 1986 and providing great work such as the building of the IGC and parts of the Goodhew Research Centre (Library).
Community Business Directory
The School community at TIGS is made up of a diverse mix of families who are involved in many areas of business across the Illawarra and beyond. The Community Business Register allows current and former parents, alumni and others with a direct connection to TIGS to list their company details and promote their business to the School community. All proceeds from Community Business Register listings are invested back into school facilities by TIGS Foundation, creating further educational opportunities for our students.
