Community involvement
Our school values strong partnerships with our families and community. Parents and carers can get involved through our Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) or by volunteering at our school. Your time and support help make our school a better place for everyone.
Parents and Citizens Association (P&C)
Our P&C is a group of parents, carers and school community members. They assist with school planning, fundraising, events and volunteering. Our P&C works in partnership with our school to promote the interests of our school community.
Joining the P&C a great way to meet other families, get involved and contribute to our school's future. We would love to have you on board!
Join our P&C
Joining the P&C is one of the best ways to show your children how much you value their education and how interested you are in what they do. By joining the P&C you are showing your children how committed you are to helping students and your school community.
There are lots of ways of supporting your kids at school like meeting staff, attending assembly items, helping at school events.
Parents participate at whatever level they are comfortable with, depending on work and other commitments.
The P&C helps inform parents about school activities and policy, also gives parents opportunities to meet other parents and teachers.
Research shows that children perform better at school when their parents are involved in the school community.
There are rules and regulations about how a P&C meeting is run as we are bound by the P&C Federation. These procedures exist to ensure members of the P&C spend all the funds in the right area to reflect school policy.
Generally, meetings only happen once a month and everybody can contribute to what’s happening in the school. The more people involved the more exciting and successful it will be.
Sometimes P&C debates can get enthusiastic. With such a diverse set of people together, you are always going to have differing opinions and that’s OK, discussion is healthy.
The final goal is doing something for the school and our kids. The P&C is one small part of the school, but we have a history of making significant contributions throughout the year with fundraising and trying to foster a positive community spirit.
