Parents, carers and the community

As a parent or carer, you are an important part of our school community. We offer a range of services to support you and your family.

Parents and Citizens’ Association (P&C)

Meetings:
Twice a term on a Monday, 6.30pm to 7.30pm
Location: Meet in the School office

About the P&C
The P&C is a vibrant community of parents, caregivers, and school community members who come together to support and enrich the school experience for all students. We work closely with the school to foster a strong, supportive community that benefits everyone.

What Does the P&C Do?
Our roles are diverse and impactful:

  • Attend Meetings: Join us to discuss and contribute to school-related topics.
  • Participate in Discussions: Engage actively in school-related matters and contribute your ideas. Share your opinions on school policies, student uniforms, behaviours, and budget considerations.
  • Advise the Principal: Offer advice and recommendations on various student and operational issues.
  • Support the School: Assist with financial and other resources to enhance student experiences.
  • Strengthen the Community: Help make a positive impact on both students and the broader school community.
