Parent and Citizens’ Association (P&C)
Have you been wondering what a P&C Association actually does? Are you new to the school and would like to meet other parents? Do you want to get involved more with the school but aren't sure what you can do? If you answered yes to these questions then you should consider becoming a P&C member by coming along to a General Meeting, held twice a term at the school. For upcoming dates please
check our calendar. Meetings are held on a Wednesday evening, to allow as many parents as possible to attend.
Being a P&C member is a great way to keep informed and gain a clear understanding of how our school operates, to contribute to the quality education of your children and to make new friends. Your contribution can be as large or small as you can manage, but your ongoing support of the P&C Association is invaluable. This is a great opportunity to share in the school’s decision-making process and help shape its future.
