P&C

The P&C (Parents & Citizens' Association) is a formally constituted group of parents and other interested persons established under the School Education Act to promote the interests of the school.

Its main purpose is to support the school for the benefit of all students. Parents are the essential guardians of school education in partnership with many individuals and organisations, including governments, education authorities, principals and teachers, and the community generally.

They do this by:

• Representing parents on the School Council. P&C representatives take the views of the parent body back to the School Council and report back to the P&C.
• Encouraging parents' participation and involvement in the school.
• Providing a forum for parents to discuss issues pertaining to the school and its local community.
• Bringing educational matters to the attention of the wider community.
• Providing extra amenities for the benefit of students.

Meetings

P&C meetings are held in Weeks 3 and 7 each term. All parents become voting members on paying a fee of $1.00 each year.

The P&C meeting minutes and agenda can be viewed on the Minutes page.

Fundraising

The P&C though its fund raising efforts has contributed significantly to the improvement of the school grounds, air conditioning of the classrooms, building up of library stocks, and purchase of IT equipment. It also takes a keen interest in the discussion of educational issues.

Canteen

The P&C has set up a canteen at the school to provide food for students, staff and parents. You can find out more about the Canteen here.
