Parents & Friends Association 

The Parents and Friends Association is a dynamic part of St Vigil’s College with two engaged and active committees across the Junior and Senior campuses. The committees work both independently and collectively to plan and host campus specific and combined fundraising events during the year. 

The main focus of the P&F is to connect the College community by providing enjoyable events and social forums to bring students, staff, parents, friends and families together.

With the College expanding to Year 11 this year and the start of the first Year 1 class, it is more important than ever for the Parents & Friends Association to progress and continue the significant and wonderful work they achieve each year. 

The P&F is a fantastic forum to meet College community members, learn about the College and engage with staff and students. 

Present and past College parents/carers and friends are welcome to participate in general committee meetings, join the Junior or Senior P&F Committees, and/or are strongly encouraged to assist with various events during 2023. 

Support and volunteers of all levels are greatly appreciated, including:

• Committee members/volunteers
• Casual volunteers
• Event working party members
• Event sponsors
• Gift donations

For more information, please visit the St Virgil’s College Parents and Friends Association web page.
