Fathers & Friends

The purpose of Delbarton Fathers & Friends is...

-To bring the fathers of School students closer to the School so that with a consequent greater knowledge of its aims and methods they may effectively lend their paternal influence to the proper education of their sons.

-To promote a wider knowledge of the School, its character, objectives and facilities

-To afford the opportunity for interested and capable laymen to apply their talents, education and experience to the development and preservation of the educational, cultural, social and spiritual objectives of the School.
