Iona College End of Year 2025 Raffle
About
Celebrate the spirit of Iona and support our community with the End of Year 2025 Raffle!First Prize is an original oil painting by acclaimed artist and Old Boy Nick Kohler, featuring Imani — the young mountain gorilla and star of The Silverback’s Song, Iona’s very own children’s book written by Dannika Patterson and illustrated by Nick.
The gorilla, Iona’s beloved mascot, represents strength, resilience, confidence, humility, wisdom and leadership — qualities we strive to nurture in every Ionian. The Silverback’s Song, commissioned by the Iona Old Boys Association, tells a story of community and belonging. Just as the silverback guides and encourages Imani (meaning faith), the Iona Silverbacks support and inspire the next generation of Ionians to lead with heart and purpose.
Second Prize is the Iona Gorilla Griller Weber BBQ — a limited-edition barbecue custom-designed for the Iona community. Perfect for summer entertaining, it’s built for sizzling snags, weekend feasts, and firing up great memories with family and friends.
Tickets are $10 each, with all funds raised supporting Iona’s student-support and community programs, helping us continue to care for and uplift our young people.
Ticket sales close at 4.00pm on 14 December.
Winners will be notified.
Join in, support Iona, and be part of something truly special. Good luck!
