Parents & Citizens Association
The Parents and Citizens Association consists of
parents, staff and community members and is vital to the healthy
functioning of our School. The role of the P&C Association is changing with
more and more collaborative decision making taking place. The P&C
encourages a good cross-section of our parent body, school staff and local
community to become active members.
There is a growing trend towards greater participation
by family and community members in all sectors of school life. The
P&C is another area where grandparents and retired community members are
most welcome to become involved. In many family situations today, both
parents work and have little time to attend meetings and to be classroom
helpers. Grandparents could become your family representative for these
activities.
The P&C manages the Tuckshop, Uniform shop and Out of School Hours Care service.
The P&C organises many fundraising events throughout the year including Mother's day, Father's Day and Christmas Stalls, raffles, BBQs, Movie nights and Pie Drives.
P&Cs Qld is the peak body supporting and representing more than 576,000* state school parents and wider school communities throughout Queensland. We support the achievement of quality educational outcomes for students through fostering parental and community engagement in a thriving and successful education system. Through our state-wide network of over 1200 P&C Associations and School Councils, we have the localised presence and voice to lead and enact change.
Our vision is to ensure "Every child has every chance" in education and in life.
Increased engagement with school parents and communities is a key part of P&Cs Qld's new focus with Parent Talk as a key resource for building parent and community engagement with their local school. You can find Parent Talks latest publications by following this link: Parent Talk

We encourage all community members to be active participants in our school
and look forward to you joining us at our meetings held in the staffroom on the
3rd Tuesday of the month from 7pm to 9pm.
Our P&C Association also now has its own dedicated Facebook page that keeps our families and community up to date with all the events and activities happening.
