Parents' Association

The John XXIII College Parents' Association have funds available for proposals that meet the objectives of the Parents’ Association by promoting social interaction or providing material assistance to the College. Successful proposals must show they either benefit students in all years, or if only specific years then support previously neglected years to maintain a balance of benefit. Proposals can be submitted by staff or parents.

 

Examples of past successful proposals include hire of timing machines for House Sport Carnivals, seat belts in the school buses, upgrades of numerous Primary play areas, a fleet of ergonomic rowing machines for land training in the school gym, new netball goals, long range telescope for the Astronomy club and industrial sewing machines for the T and E department.

 

We welcome all proposals for how our funds could be spent, so if you have an idea please complete the Guidelines for Funding Proposal Form below and submit it to parentsassociation@johnxxiii.edu.au . The deadline for submissions each term is 5pm on the Friday of Week 2. All funding proposals to be voted on each meeting will be publicised in the College Newsletter the Friday before the meeting.
