P&C
The aim of the P&C is to promote community engagement between parents and the school through opportunities to participate in a variety of activities and events. The P&C also provides financial assistance to the school through contributions to a variety of projects some of which are set at the beginning of each year such as the support for the Youthcare pastoral programs.
Meetings are held at 7.30 pm on Monday nights in Weeks 3 and 8 of every term. All members of the school community are welcome to attend, although voting at meetings is limited to financial and ex-officio members. The meeting dates are as follows:
