P & C News

Message from the P&C President

Hello everyone, my name is Brooke Hawley.   I am excited to take on the role of P&C President for 2023 alongside a brand new executive committee.   We would like to thank the outgoing committee for their time and service, we appreciate all of the hard work that you have done for the school.

The new Committee Members are:

President - Brooke Hawley

Vice President - Andrew Caley

Secretary - Amy Lowe

Treasurer - Phoebe O'Reilly

P&C events and fundraising are enjoyed by many – students, family, staff and community members alike. Events bring us together as a community, they create opportunities to meet new people, reconnect with familiar faces and are also a time of celebration. Events can not happen without the people who donate their time and effort so I urge you to step up and volunteer  - we cannot do it without you! 

We look forward to meeting you around the school.

P&C Meetings and Membership

Our next General Meeting of 2023 will be held on Monday 5th of June at 4.30pm in the staff room.As a parent of a student at our school, you are not automatically a member of the P&C. To become a member you must first attend a general meeting and present your membership application form in person, which is approved at the end of that meeting. 

This means that should an issue arise during the school year which you feel strongly about, and you are not yet a member, you will not be able to vote on the matter until you have attended a general meeting first… i.e., you will qualify to vote at your second meeting (the Annual General Meeting is the only meeting where a person may apply to become a member without being present). 

To ensure you can have your say, please either join us at our next meeting, attend our AGM (or submit a membership application beforehand). Membership forms are available from the uniform shop or by emailing pandc@palmbeachss.eq.edu.au.

Being part of the P&C is a great way to meet other parents and be involved in fundraising and supporting the school community. As a member of the P&C you have the opportunity to join the conversation on how funds raised are spent to enhance your child’s school experience. P&C meetings which are held week 4 and 8 of each term, please contact us at pandc@palmbeachss.eq.edu.au if you have any questions. 

Mother Day Stall

The Mothers Day stall was a great success, thank you to all the volunteers who contributed.  We hope all of our Palm Beach community enjoyed their presents

Kind Regards,
