Parent Events

The Parent Association Liaisons (PALs), alongside our Primary and Secondary Convenors, are the heart of our Parents’ Association. They foster community spirit and organise various activities. PALs consist of dedicated parent volunteers from each year group, led by a Primary Convenor (Kindy to Year 6) and a Secondary Convenor (Years 7-12).

PALs coordinate social, pastoral, and volunteer activities for College parents. Their key objective is to strengthen and enrich our College’s community spirit by creating opportunities for connections within and between parent year groups.

Join our College Primary Counsellor, Anne Murphy, along with our Secondary Psychologists, Eva-Maria Catina and Martin Emery, as they delve deeper into the lessons from Karen’s presentation. This session will explore what strategies have been effective, what challenges have arisen, and why certain approaches have worked while others have not.

This is a valuable opportunity to continue the conversation on how we can help our children develop the courage and resilience needed to face life’s challenges with strength and confidence. Your participation will not only benefit your own family but will also contribute to our collective efforts in supporting the wellbeing of all our students.
