Parents and Friends Association

After three wonderful years, Simone Kerley and I will be stepping down from our roles as Vice President and President of the Stella Maris P&F.
We are very excited to announce that Kayla Marshall and Lauren Stevenson will be taking over as Co-Presidents in 2027! We've already had the opportunity to meet with them, and they have some exciting ideas and changes planned for the year ahead — but I'll leave those announcements to them!
We warmly invite everyone to join us at our Annual General Meeting on Monday 9 November at 6.30 pm. It's a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the year, celebrate what we've achieved together and welcome our new leadership team.
We hope to see you there!
