Parents Events
The Parent Association Liaisons (PALs) are the heartbeat of our Parents’ Association, working hand-in-hand with our Primary and Secondary Convenors to cultivate a vibrant community spirit. Comprising dedicated parent volunteers from each year group, the PALs are guided by a Primary Convenor for Kindy to Year 6 and a Secondary Convenor for Years 7 to 12.
What Do PALs Do?
PALs play a vital role in coordinating social, pastoral, and volunteer activities for all College parents. Their primary mission is to strengthen and enrich our College community by creating opportunities for meaningful connections among parents across different year groups.

Inspire Workshop
The Parents' Association is committed to providing valuable educational experiences through our 'INSPIRE' program, which focuses on parent education through presentations, forums, and interactive sessions. Our program funds a range of speakers and educators who address health and wellbeing issues affecting young people and their families. In this interactive workshop, we invite parents and guardians to come together and brainstorm potential topics for our 'INSPIRE' events in 2025 and beyond. Your input will be important in helping us identify the most relevant subjects that will benefit our community. By attending this workshop, you will be part of a proactive community that is dedicated to the educational and emotional wellbeing of our children. Together, we can create a robust and relevant program for 'INSPIRE' into the future.
We look forward to your participation and contributions.
