Parent Teacher Student Association

PTSA

The PTSA is an important body, which supports and develops a strong and active parent-teacher-student community and provides opportunities for parents to become involved in the life of the school.

Families are active participants in school life and should feel welcomed, valued, and connected to each other, the staff and our school community. Together, we can continuously collaborate to support our student’s learning and healthy development both at home and at school.

The PTSA committee consists of dedicated parents, teachers, staff and students who are interested in playing an active part in working together in the planning, organising and facilitating of school events.

We also have Parent Class Reps, which is a parent from each class that will liaise with other parents of the same class to help coordinate class contributions to school events and to welcome and assist new parents within the class.

Our parents are also involved in assisting to represent and support their communities in school.

Please find all the PTSA forms to join one of our committees - here.
