Upcoming Events!

Plant & Produce Market – Friday 12 December!

Our final community event of the year will be the much-loved (Festive Themed) Plant & Produce Market, on the Term 4 Specialists Afternoon. It’s a fantastic way to wrap up the year with connection, festivity and community. This term we would like to invite parents of foundation, grade 1 and grade 2 students to take a turn to help set up and serve, and all families who are able to contribute something to the market. Sign up here if you can help!

Connect!

We’re looking ahead to 2026 and warmly inviting new faces to join us. Anne is stepping aside from her co-chair role next year so there is an opening for someone new to share this role with Brigid next year! More details on the role and time commitment involved are here. If you have an interest in this space, please get in touch with us at cet@brunswicknwps.vic.edu.au

We organise a mix of major events (with subcommittees to share the load!) and smaller gatherings throughout the year that help keep our community connected. We always aim to work in balance, with flexible roles and no pressure—just contribute what you can, when you can; and more people are always needed, appreciated and welcome!

Why join the CET?

Volunteering is a fantastic way to:

Get involved in school life from behind the scenes
Give back to the BNWPS community
Help create joyful moments for all our kids and families
Build friendships with other awesome parents and carers

We’re especially keen to welcome more Dads and Male-Identifying Carers, and members from new school communities, to help grow our team in a balanced, sustainable and inclusive way.

Contact!

If you want to get in touch about community events, or have any questions at all, email Anne and Brigid (co-chairs) at cet@brunswicknwps.vic.edu.au

All volunteers at the school need a valid Working With Children’s Check - click this link to apply if you don’t have one. It’s fairly straightforward and free for volunteers.
