Community involvement

Our school values strong partnerships with our families and community. Parents and carers can get involved through our Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) or by volunteering at our school. Your time and support help make our school a better place for everyone.

Parents and Citizens Association (P&C)

Our Parents and Citizens’ Association (P&C) is made up of parents and carers, teachers and community members. The P&C meets regularly to contribute to decision-making, developing policies and management plans as well as fundraising.

Mission

The Ellalong Public School P&C Association supports students by collaborating with parents, community and teaching staff to raise money for important learning resources and experiences.

The Association is consulted on a regular basis, and contributes to important school management plans, policies, and decisions.

How to get involved

Attend a meeting

The P&C meet during Weeks 4 and 8 of Term 1, Weeks 2 & 6 of Term 2, 3, 4; on Wednesday afternoons at 3.00pm in the School Library.
