Salute Scholarships & Sport @ Somerville

The Somerville House Foundation will host our annual lunch on Friday 27 May at the picturesque Rivershed, Howard Smith Wharves with views of the city skyline and the Brisbane River.

Funds raised will provide talented girls with an opportunity to gain a first class education from a school they could ordinarily only dream of.

Past, present and future members of the Somerville community are invited to join us at one of the Foundation’s signature events - husbands and partners are most welcome.

Book a table with friends or register as an individual or couple - we will ensure all guests are seated with others from their year or with daughters in similar years.

The Foundation Car Raffle will be drawn at the Lunch - buy tickets to win an MG3 Auto Core MY22.
