Parent Teacher Association (PTA)

The PTA is a group of enthusiastic parents who meet regularly to organise fundraising events to provide resources for the school that are not covered by the school's operating budget.

Often PTA fundraising provides additional equipment and assistance towards larger projects for the school which ensures we maximise the opportunities we offer our students. The PTA supports the school to organise various events and provides the manpower to assist with these events, including Agricultural Day and working bees to help maintain the school facilities. This support helps the school to hold larger events for our students and local community to participate in.

The Board (BOT) is the governing body of the school and the PTA operates under their position. All resources purchased and events organised are to support the BOT achieve the Vision and Strategic Plan of the school.

Our current PTA Committee Members are:

Chairperson: Jo Kavermann
Secretary: Sarah Parker
Treasurer: Mel McKenzie

Our Latest Fundraisers and Projects..

What do we have going on at the moment? Check out our latest fundraising ideas, projects and news here!

2025 will be another great year for our PTA, with ideas already being discussed and shaped!

During 2024 we held several successful working bees, sausage sizzles, raffles, and of course our amazing Roto Fun Run in November!

We introduced PTA Bakery Lunches every fortnight on a Wednesday. This was a huge hit with the kids! If we are to continue with it this year, we will post up a new menu here and on the parents group on Facebook.
