Parents and Friends Association

AGM and Next Meeting

The Parents & Friends Association invites all new and returning families to attend the upcoming AGM and first meeting of the new committee on Monday 28 March 2022 at 7pm in The John Landy Centre.  You will have the opportunity to meet our current group of parents that are the P&F for EDSC and we will be happy to share how this dynamic group supports the college.

The Parents and Friends Committee is an informal, friendly group of interested parents who provide assistance at various school functions throughout the year such as information nights, music nights, school production, parent/teacher interview days etc. P&F also fundraises with a focus to raise extra funds to use on worthwhile projects that will benefit the Ccollege community.

Come join us, be involved and stay informed about the exciting events that take place in our child’s school.

Those who have already expressed interest will be sent an email invite again like last month.  If any more members of the school community would like to join in please email Aban at aban2309@yahoo.com and we will very happily add you on to the distribution list.
