The purpose of the Swiss Club of NSW is to promote social activities and friendships within the Swiss Community of NSW, and encourage friendly interaction with other clubs, Australians and Swiss affiliates. We aim to keep Swiss traditions and culture alive in Australia and perhaps create a few of our own along the way.
The Swiss Club of NSW became a Club on the 5 February 1926 when the former Swiss Society of NSW changed into the Swiss Club of NSW and succeeded the Society. However, the Swiss Club of NSW agreed to update the older version of the constitution on Wednesday, 2 October 1968 and since then has made minor changes. Currently we have around 300 members and growing. We are a non-profit organisation and therefore membership fees are kept as low as possible. We organise functions at various venues and have strong ties to other Swiss interest groups and the Swiss Consulate to support all Swiss activities in NSW.
