Jeffrey Voon



Current Scholars and recent old scholars mourn the tragic passing of Jeffrey Voon earlier this week. Jeffrey was a vibrant and talented member of the Princes Community who attend PAC as a boarder for 2 years, completing his Year 12 IB studies in 2010. Jeffrey was a popular student amongst the Princes community and we fondly remember his wonderful contributions to the school as a scholar, singer, and rugby student. The school will recognise Jeffrey in a discreet gathering and reflection tomorrow, 2.45pm in the school Chapel.
