Role of the P & C

The P&C is a formally constituted group of parents and other interested persons established under the School Education Act (1999) to promote the interests of the school. Its main purpose is to support the school for the benefit of all students.

We do this by:

• Representing parents on the School Council. P&C representatives take the views of the parent body 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.
• Run the School Canteen
• Run the Uniform Shop 
• Fundraising
