Community involvement

Our school values strong partnerships with our families and community. Parents and carers can get involved through our Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) or by volunteering at our school. Your time and support help make our school a better place for everyone.

Parents and Citizens Association (P&C)

Our P&C is a group of parents, carers and school community members. They assist with school planning, fundraising, events and volunteering. Our P&C works in partnership with our school to promote the interests of our school community.

Joining the P&C a great way to meet other families, get involved and contribute to our school's future. We would love to have you on board! Being a small school, we rely on parent assistance for fundraising activities. Funds raised by the P&C go directly to supporting all children within the school and help to keep the school buses running.  The P&C also contributes to decision-making and developing community connections.

What has our P&C achieved?

While our P&C has had many achievements over the year and consistantly raise money for important programs at our school some of the main stand outs have been:

• A New Bus: Our P&C has been tirelessly fundrasing for a new 21 seater bus since 2022, as our one of our old buses is being retired.  A second new bus was purchased in 2025, another 21 seater to accommodate our ever growing school! This was possible through countless fundraisers and very generous donations from local organisations.
• Continual funds to keep our buses running: While having buses to make external activites possible is amazing. There are still many ongoing costs associated with keeping them roadworthy and our P&C continue to fund this.
• Providing funds for transport of students to and from Work Experience: This is cruical for our students to work towards their goals and equip them for post-school options.
• Providing funds for our Christmas lunch and santa visit: Every year our P&C hold a Christmas lunch for all students and teachers to enjoy a meal together and celebrate the year!
