Final P&C Meeting of the Year - Tuesday, 2 December
Due to the strike action planned by Queensland Teacher’s Union members on Tuesday, 25 November 2025 we will have to postpone the P&C meeting scheduled for that day.
The meeting has been rescheduled to Tuesday, 2 December.
As we reach the end of a wonderful year at Ironside, we invite you to join us for our final P&C meeting of 2025. It’s a chance to look back on everything our community has achieved together and to celebrate the spirit of connection that makes Ironside such a special place.
We have managed a huge year, and thanks to the efforts of our extraordinary volunteer base, we’ve provided the community with so many memorable experiences - from running our Swim Club, Uniform Shop and Tuckshop, to hosting the Mother’s Day Stall, Father’s Day Movie Night, Election Day stall, a family picnic, and of course, the beloved International Breakfast.
None of these events would have been possible without the time, energy, and heart our volunteers bring to our school. To everyone who cooked, organised, packed, set up, cleaned up, coordinated, or supported in any way - thank you. You truly are the backbone of our P&C.
Looking ahead, 2026 is a Spring Fair year! The Spring Fair is one of Ironside’s biggest and most exciting community events, and planning begins early. If you’re interested in being part of the organising team or even taking on the role of Spring Fair Coordinator, we’d love to hear from you (secretary@ironsidepandc.org.au). It’s a rewarding opportunity to help bring one of our school’s signature events to life.
Our final meeting is a great chance to:
- Reflect on the year’s achievements
- Hear what’s happening around the school
- Share your ideas for 2026
- Connect with other engaged families
Date: Tuesday, 2 December
Time: 6:30pm
Location: School Staff Room
We’d truly love to see you there!
Kind Regards,
Ironside State School P&C.
SWIM CLUB IS BACK!
Swim Club is returning on Friday evenings in Term 4, 2025 & Term 1, 2026!
If your child loves swimming, and is keen to participate in some timed races, Swim Club is the perfect relaxed and sociable place to do it. We run timed events in all strokes, starting with 25m and also offering 50m and 100m events for those who qualify.
It’s a wonderful way to meet new families and also for the kids to spend some time with their friends. There’s a fabulous BBQ on offer each club night and a canteen - both raising funds for the P&C.
