Click here to go to the Parents' Association Facebook page.
The Association’s job is to foster community spirit among parents and also raise money for the school. We do this by running fundraising events and catering at functions throughout the school year - always a great way to bring the school community together.
We love to see new faces and the more members we have, the more we are able to achieve, and, ultimately, enhance the school for our children and future generations.
Our past fundraising events have included Movie Nights, Guest Speakers, Quiz and Comedy Evenings. Community fundraisers also include selling The Entertainment Book. See how you can participate and support us this year.
We feature most fortnights in the Principal's newsletter – so sign up and watch out for us.
A large part of what we do is actually unseen, working with a larger group called Friends of the PA, who volunteer time, baking, cooking dinners, and whatever is required to make events occur. For those who cannot commit to being a PA member, join this group by emailing us right now.
The PA organises over 60 dishes to feed our hungry teachers during the Parent/Student/Teacher Conferences in May. Look out for the call this year and see how you can help.
Being on the PA is a great way to feel involved in the school and find out a bit more about what goes on than what you may learn from your teenager! It is also a forum for you to give feedback to the staff and board members.
We meet roughly once a month in the College Boardroom on Thursdays at 7pm for about an hour. Meetings are also attended by a senior staff member and a Trustee of the Board.
Pop it in your calendar right now - 30 January, 27 February, 27 March, 29 May, 26 June, 31 July, 28 August, 30 October and 27 November (TBC).
