P&C - Parents and Citizens Association 

Parent Night/Ball

What an awesome turnout we had at the Parent Night last Saturday!  We hope you all enjoyed the time to catch up with friends and meet new parents. 

 

It was great to see staff members drop in too, and by the sounds of it, the Ball was a success. Congratulations to Caroline O’Meagher for winning the raffle – 1 night accommodation at the Parmelia Hilton with breakfast. 

 

We raised $340 from the raffle, and this will go towards purchasing items next year.  Thanks again to Leanne Childs for organising the raffle and Joanne Walker for helping to sell tickets.  

 

Many thanks to the staff that put a lot of time and effort into the Ball for our kids.

 

We have our final P&C meeting for 2023 next term, Monday 16 October 6:30pm.

 Our 2023-2024 P&C Committee members are:

  • Marie Murray (President)
  • Leanne Childs (Vice President)
  • Joanne Walker (Treasurer / Secretary)

We are still in need of 2 committee members to form an Executive Committee.  I believe there are some parents who have shown an interest to join, so please make time for the Zoom meeting next term so we can formally add you to the committee. 😊

 

There are only 4 meetings a year via Zoom (online), plus a bit of correspondence between committee members via WhatsApp.  Each family contributes $50 to the P&C through the school fees so there’s very little need to do extra fundraising, plus it's too difficult to organise because we all live so far apart! 

 

The main role of a committee member is to decide what to spend the funds on.  It truly is, 

the easiest committee you’ll be a part of!

Next Year

Remember to have a conversation with your son/daughter about potential ‘wishlist’ items the P&C could purchase next year. 

 

Our kids live and go to school there – they know what is needed! 

 

Hope to see some new faces at the P&C meeting on 16 October 2023.
