About PFRANG

ABOUT PFRANG

Who We Are

We are a group of people who are united in the belief that education is one of the most basic and valuable assets in our society and therefore should be accessible to all young people.  We have made it our aim to extend this gift of education to as many children as possible who would otherwise not be afforded the opportunity.

 

Why We Are

In April 2000 the Pfrang family lost their lives in a dreadful crime in their home in Nanjing. From sorrow for Sandra, Thorsten, Petra and Jürgen Pfrang, the desire arose to keep the memory of the family alive through making a positive contribution to the society we choose to live and work in. The foundation acknowledges the fact that social inequality and poor education prepare the grounds for crimes.

 

How We Are Organized

The Pfrang Association is a nonprofit charity organization with the intention of providing funds aimed at helping underprivileged children in Jiangsu and Anhui Province to attain an education. In setting up the Association, we have developed a partnership with Amity Foundation (www.amityfoundation.org). This foundation has years of experience dealing with the needs of young people in China and aspires to achieve similar goals as the Pfrang Association. The Pfrang Association is administered entirely through a group of volunteers and governed by the Articles of the Association.

Auditions Today!

Today’s auditions for Little Shop of Horrors will be held in the Middle Music Room at 12:55. Please arrive on time 🙂

Evacuation Reminder

A friendly reminder of our planned evacuation drill today at 10:00am and a related heads-up that the Early Years student line up area has been swapped with the staff-without-a-homeroom line up area to accommodate the recent EY relocation. All line up locations have been repainted on the track’s edge for increased visibility and ease of use. Many thanks to the facilities team for their efforts on this. See you there!

Student Council – Become a member

If you want to become a member of the student council speak to Maria and Summer, so they can include you on the list, we are particularly looking for Grade 7 and 8 students to be more represented on the council.
