Parent Representatives 2023

We would like to take the time to introduce our Parent Representatives for 2023.  As you may be aware, the parent representatives are parents who have volunteered their time to help build a community with strong friendships within your year group. Their role this year will be the organising of informal events for your year group; volunteers to assist the Parents’ and Friends’ Committee and Winter Sport Supporters’ Day Barbeques.

Parents and Friends Parent Forum and General Meeting: Tuesday 21 March 2023, 7:00 PM

To all parents and carers of the College, you are invited to attend our Parents’ and Friends’ Parent Forum and General Meeting, held in the Robson Auditorium.

 

The topic of discussion for the Parent Forum is one that should not be missed.  Mrs Denise Lombardo will be presenting on ChatGPT.  ChatGPT is a newly developed Artificial Intelligence (AI) Chatbox developed by OpenAI, available to everyone.

 

Mrs Lombardo will be discussing what it is, how it works, cautions for parents, carers and students and St Patrick’s College’s response.

 

Following the Forum, you are all invited to stay for the Parents’ and Friends’ General Meeting.  Please register your attendance for the Forum and Meeting here.

Annual Blue, Black and Gold Dinner

Our Annual Blue, Black and Gold dinner to be held on Friday 19 May has now sold out.  We are amid sourcing extra tickets. Please register your interest via the link in the invitation below and join the waitlist.  If  more tickets become available, we will notify you of your ability to purchase. We want to thank everyone for their continued support and look forward to seeing you all on the night.

 

Supporters’ Day Barbeques

As you have all been informed via communication from the school, Supporters’ Day for your son’s cohort will be held during the Winter Sport season.

 

The Parents and Friends will be hosting the barbeques during this time. Events like this are a wonderful way to meet other families at the school and what better way to do this than by volunteering an hour of your time on the day. It would be great if we could have the support of our school families. Many hands make light work! Any time you can spare will be appreciated. If you would like to volunteer, please follow the link below according to your son’s allocated day:

 

Year 7 – 1 April 2023

Junior School – 6 May 2023

Year 8 – 27 May 2023

Years 9 and 10 – 3 June 2023

Year 11 – 22 July 2023

 

Thank you!

Your Parents’ and Friends’ Committee
