The committee remains committed to the original Statement of Purpose of Clan Sinclair Australia, which sets out our aims to:

• Be non-sectarian and non-political.

• Promote the concept of a Sinclair family in Australasia, linked to the wider Sinclair family across the world.

• Foster and preserve Clan sentiments in cooperation with other branches of Clan Sinclair worldwide.

• Acquire, compile, preserve and share information of historical interest and value—particularly Australian—that relates to those who, by birth, marriage or adoption, are part of Clan Sinclair.

• Collect, preserve and publish the records, traditions and genealogies of Clan Sinclair, together with biographical notes, stories and legends about members of the Clan, past and present.

• Encourage social contact and friendship between members of the Association.

• Maintain an official membership roll to ensure a continuing Sinclair presence in Australia.

• Share information about the Clan and its activities through attendance at Highland Gatherings and Clan meetings, as well as via the internet, newsletters and other forms of communication.

• Build and maintain a database of Sinclair genealogy for the benefit of present and future generations.

• Encourage interest in, and knowledge of, the origins and history of Clan Sinclair.

• Share with the broader community the pride we have in our Sinclair heritage.

• Work with others in the Sinclair family to help distinguish historical fact from folklore.

​

Anyone bearing the name Sinclair, one of its variations, or one of our recognised Septs (see our Septs link) is warmly invited to join CSA. Members receive four newsletters each year, featuring stories about well-known—and not so well-known—Sinclairs from both history and modern times.

​

We actively encourage members to contribute articles, research, photos and stories to the newsletter. The committee meets in Melbourne four times a year, with each meeting followed by a social gathering. All members are very welcome to attend. Representatives of CSA attend several Highland Gatherings each year. At present these events are all in Victoria, but we are keen to welcome members from other States who would like to represent CSA at gatherings in their local areas.
