Become involved in our Parent Association

Joining the PA is a great way to get involved and make a difference in our school. We have many exciting fundraising opportunities on the horizon and would love to have you on board. Whether you have a lot of time to give or just a little, every bit helps and is greatly appreciated. No experience is needed - just a current Working with Children's Check and a willingness to contribute to our community. 

As always, thank you for supporting the Parents Association. If you have any questions or feedback regarding any past or future events, please feel free to contact our Parent Association President (Jess) via email: upweysouthpta@gmail.com  

2026 Term One Social Event for Parents/Carers

On the evening of Saturday 21st March, our Parent Association hosted a social event for the purpose of providing new families to our school the opportunity to interact with other parents/carers in an informal social setting. 

This evening was held at Upwey Bowls Club, and was a hugely successful evening. 

Keep an eye out for our Term Two events as detailed below: 

• Special Lunch - Donuts & Jelly 

• Mother’s Day Stall 

• School Holidays Movie Day - Toy Story 5!

Note: there are only 27 Mother’s Day bunches of flowers remaining. Order via QKR before they sell out! 

Breakfast Club

Each Friday morning on a weekly basis, we hold Breakfast Club to ensure our students can have a healthy and happy start to their school day. All students and families are invited to enjoy some toast, cereal and fruit from 8:30am each Friday morning.  

Volunteers wanted! If you are available 8:00am - 9:00am Fridays and have a WWCC, we'd love your help. No ongoing commitment expected. 

Tasks include: 

• Setting up breakfast area 
• Prepare and serve breakfast
