A very warm welcome to the 2026 school year! On behalf of the Edgeworth Public School P&C Executive Team, we hope all our students, families, and staff enjoyed a restful break and are feeling refreshed and ready for another exciting year ahead.

We are pleased to introduce the 2026 P&C Executive Committee, who are looking forward to working closely with the school and community to support our students and continue building a positive, respectful, and inclusive school environment:

We would also like to sincerely thank our outgoing Executive members, Kendal Merchant, Kristina Cousins, Jennie Van Der Zee, and Richard O’Shea for their dedication, leadership, and countless hours of service during the 2025 school year. Their commitment and hard work have made a lasting contribution to our school community, and we are very grateful for everything they have given to the P&C.

In addition, we extend a heartfelt thank you to all our general P&C members. Your support, ideas, volunteering, and attendance at meetings and events are what make the P&C possible. Every contribution whether large or small plays an important role in supporting our students and strengthening our school community.

We are also pleased to continue the important work of our Disability & Inclusion Sub‑Committee in 2026:
