Back to Newington Day – What you need to know on the day!

Prepare with a quick history lesson on BTND

Our archivist Mr David Roberts has provided the most wonderful account of the Great Wyvern Fete. To help you prepare for the celebrations on Saturday click here to read how Back to Newington Day originated and enjoy the rich history of our College.

Fashion “off” the fields

Take a moment away from the Football and Rugby fields so you don’t miss the 26 Marketplace stallholders in Centenary Hall selling jewellery, fresh flowers, gourmet food, ladies clothing accessories, hats, homewares, kids clothes and toys on Back to Newington Day.  Come and have a look at the great items we have on offer during half time. Click here  to find out more.

Need a Coffee hit?

Our local baristas at Papercup Cafe in Stanmore will be running the Black & White Cafe on the day. Come and say hello while grabbing a delicious, creamy beverage to enjoy. Click here to find out more.

Are you a self-confessed sweet tooth?

The New Women group at Newington College  have been busy baking up a storm for the New Women Cake Stall.  They’re looking for keen lovers of all things delicious to come and try out their homemade goods. If you’re looking for something sweet to complement your Latte why not drop by and see what they have on offer. There might even be something for you to take home for the family dessert that night as well.

Nab a classic at the Secondhand Book Stall

If fashion and homewares are not your thing, then maybe you’d like to come and try your luck at the secondhand book stall. The College library has also had a recent cull so there are some great buys for the boys also available.

Need a Hand?

Have your shopping minded for you at Centenary Hall by the volunteers of the New Women group for a gold coin donation.

Calling all Domestic Goddesses (& Gods)

If you wish to contribute to the New Women Cake Stall and live in the Sutherland Shire, boxes to donate your goods can be collected from a New Women family in the area. Please contact Helen Burton for more details.

Boxes and jars are also still available at Reception and Concordia Building also.

Put in a bid

A bit of a eBay guru? Why not place a bid in the P&F Mini Auction. Click here to find out more or click here to visit the webpage and put in a bid. New items still being loaded with well below market value bids.

In Black and White, we unite!

Standing on the sidelines of the Football and Rugby game but feeling a little under dressed as a Newington supporter because you left your Wyvern at home? Help is at hand at the Black & White Shop’s Crested Ware stall. Click here for more details.

Stock up on Sesquicentenary Memorabilia

It’s our 150th Birthday and we want everyone to know about it. If you haven’t had a chance to check out the Sesquicentenary Memorabilia that has been on sale this year, this is your chance. Click here for more details and don’t forget to visit our stall on the day. It will be a long time before we are 150 again.
