2026 Giving Day

On 8 May, Giving Day 2026 will bring the BGS community together to support the important redevelopment of our outdoor education facilities at Pepperina Hill, Lake Moogerah.  

For half a century, the site has helped thousands of boys form strong friendships, build resilience and gain practical skills that complement their classroom learning. 

As we celebrate Moogerah’s 50-year anniversary, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to honour its legacy by future-proofing the site, so it continues to inspire and support boys for generations to come.  

Double your impact

This Giving Day, we are hoping to raise $650,000 to support the revitalisation work. As part of this campaign, gifts will be matched thanks to the P&F Auxiliary and a number of matched giving partners. 

Matched donations are a simple way to boost your contribution to the Outdoor Education Program, so together we can make a real difference for our students.  

We are encouraging supporters to consider a gift starting from $50 – in honour of 50 years – which will become $100 thanks to matched donations.   

We also continue to gratefully accept larger donations for those who wish to make an even greater impact. Every donation – big or small – will help create a legacy for the next generation of BGS students. 

An engraved giving paver offers a simple yet lasting way for an individual or family to celebrate their connection to this special place, while helping to secure its future for generations to come. By dedicating a permanently engraved paver, you’ll create a meaningful tribute that becomes part of Moogerah’s landscape.
