A message from the new Board Chair:
“From my first night in the Collegiate boarding house I knew I had joined a special community, and I am now humbled and delighted by the opportunity to contribute to the School as Chair of the Board”, Mrs Davidson said.
“Being a member of the Collegiate Board since 2017 has been a privilege, working with a truly exceptional group of leaders dedicated to the School. During this time, I have served as Deputy Chair and Chair of the Foundation Committee. I am a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors and have served on multiple boards over the last 10 years, in the education, business and not for profit sectors in Tasmania and nationally”.
“Collegiate has been part of my life for over 35 years. I am a proud alumna (Class of ‘88), a past staff member, and my daughter Lily (Class of ‘18) was the 4th generation of our family to attend Collegiate”.
“I continued my education in the United States, and throughout my career I have delivered impact and growth in the education and for-purpose sectors in the US and Australia, from New York City to Arnhem Land”.
“I have contributed to a variety of stellar organisations over the last 25 years, including the Worldwide Fund for Nature, the University of Tasmania, Greening Australia and Pomfret School in the US. My work with Traditional Owners and the Karrkad-Kanjdji Trust in Arnhem Land was a personal highlight, and I have since provided pro-bono consulting services for several First Nations organisations. I am currently doubling the impact of Worldwide Fund for Nature Australia through ‘Regenerate Australia’ – the largest and most innovative wildlife recovery and landscape regeneration program in Australia’s history. Regenerate Australia was ranked the 11th most influential project of 2021 globally by the Project Management Institute”.
“I look forward to helping guide Collegiate through the opportunities and challenges ahead”.
