Community Involvement

Parents and caregivers play an essential role in the school community, actively participating in decision-making through the Parents and Citizens Association (P and C). They contribute to classroom activities, fundraising, and the management of the Uniform Shop, ensuring a strong partnership between the school and families. Events like Foundation Day and the Anzac march further integrate the school into the wider community, highlighting its commitment to nurturing connections and social responsibility.
