How do I join the P&C?
To bring something up at the P&C, to vote or to have a say in a matter you do have to be a member, which means that you need to pay a $2 yearly joining fee.
Once you have paid this fee and attended one meeting you will have become a voting member.
How can I be involved?
- Become a Class Parent. At the beginning of the year a new Class Parent is needed for each class. This role is easily accomplished by email and does suit working parents well.
- Help out with various P&C fundraising initiatives throughout the year. This may include trivia nights, Mothers' and Fathers' Day events, Fresh Food lunches held at school, etc.
- Attend the monthly P&C meetings, held every second Tuesday of the month in term time at 7pm in the school library. Everyone is most welcome!
- Help out in the uniform shop on Friday mornings from 8.45am onwards.
- Join in the fun however you can!
