Spring Soiree High Tea and Fundraising Event


The SCAS Foundation is excited to announce our first-ever Ladies Spring Soirée High Tea and Fundraising Event, a unique afternoon designed to inspire and connect, all while raising funds for student scholarships.

The Event: 

Join us on Saturday, 15 November 2025 from 1.00PM - 4.00PM at Sails by Rydges.

Keynote Speaker: Samantha Wills
We're proud to welcome celebrated entrepreneur and storyteller Samantha Wills as our keynote speaker. Born and raised in Port Macquarie, Samantha built a global jewellery empire from her kitchen table before turning her focus to writing, speaking, and mentoring creatives. Today, she is a bestselling author and highly sought-after speaker who inspires audiences with her honest reflections on business, branding, creativity, and the courage to forge your own path. Samantha’s powerful story is one of resilience, reinvention, and generosity and we can’t wait for you to hear it.


The event will be hosted by dynamic local businesswoman and community advocate Kate Wood-Foye, bringing her signature warmth and energy to the day. Guests will also enjoy a live performance from the incredibly talented folk-rock duo Michaeli and Kyle, whose heartfelt sound is sure to set the perfect tone for a memorable afternoon. 

The event will also feature a raffle and auction, offering some incredible prizes and auction items, including a 1:1 Brand Mentoring Session with Samantha Wills. 

With inspiring stories, uplifting music, elegant dining, and a shared purpose, the Ladies Spring Soirée High Tea promises to be a truly special celebration of community, connection, and opportunity. 

Tickets are $150.00 per person and includes bubbles on arrival, canapes and high tea favourites, custom tea and infused water station.

Raffle and Auction Prizes:
On the day, we’ll also be running raffles and an auction. If you or your business would like to contribute a prize or auction item, please get in touch at
