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.
