Parents & Friends
Parents and Friends Association
Welcome to 2026!
The P&F is a wonderful way for parents to connect with one another and support the school at the same time. We are responsible for supporting several key events during the year and we meet regularly to talk about planning for these activities.
Please keep an eye out for what is coming up.
We have the Aver & Line family photoshoot early in March, details to follow and of course the Welcome Back BBQ as well!
Looking forward to a great 2026, with plenty of new faces getting involved.
Next Meeting
Feb 18, 9am in the Staffroom
If you can lend a hand to support any of our activities, or if you have any other ideas that you would like to put forward, that would be wonderful!
