Friends of Radford (FoR) Groups
Within Radford College we have many Friends of Radford Groups (FoR). The main aim of these groups is to provide a support structure for the various cocurricular groups. These groups organise and run fundraising activities to assist with purchase of equipment, tours and end of season dinners. The groups can also provide coaching and/or managerial support. The current Friends of Radford sports groups are:
- Hockey
- Rowing
- Cricket
- Skiing
- Rugby
Friends of Radford Music (FORM)
FORM supports Radford's cocurricular and curricular music programs. This support is provided via assistance with various musical events and a number of fund raising efforts. Meetings are held twice a term in the Performing Arts Centre.
The FORM convenor is Ian Gordon, who can be contacted via email at ian.gordon@sportsync.com.au or phone on 0417 458 102.
