P&C activities create opportunities for parents, carers and staff to interact, helping build respect and strengthen connections within the community. All activities of the P&C aim to enrich the schooling environment that our kids enjoy everyday.
P&C meetings provide a place to be informed and discuss matters of interest relating to the school and community.
The P&C run many events and provide a number of services for students and families, including:
· A School Canteen with a focus on healthy food choices
· A uniform shop and second-hand uniform pool at the school
· Events such as discos, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day stalls, social events, crazy hair/sock days
· Fundraising and applying for grants to provide improvements to the school and new resources for all students
· Green & Grow program and Working Bees

Fundraising events
Throughout the year, fundraising events are organised by the fundraising committee to support our school.
Please contact the school if you are interested in participating or helping out.
Scholastic Book Club
Students have the opportunity to place an order through Scholastic Book Club. Brochures are sent home with students twice a term.
Every dollar spent through Scholastic book club goes towards rewards points, free picks and bonus coupons that the school can use for extra classroom and library resources.
Orders are usually sent home with the children, but if you would like to collect your order from the school office, please write 'office at the top of your order form and someone will call you when your order is available to be collected. The Co-ordinator for 2023 is Daina Penman.
