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)

The P&C Association is the Parents and Citizens Association and everyone on it is either a parent of a child at Newbridge Heights PS or someone from the local community that supports our school.

Great! So now you know what we are, I bet you want to know what we do?

The short answer is 'what don't we do'? The P&C is an integral part of Newbridge Heights PS. We assist the school by raising funds that we put directly back into the school. The P&C is overseen by a hard working executive committee. This small but busy group of people help to keep the P&C running smoothly. You will often see them asking for volunteers, helping in the canteen, organising events and selling raffle tickets. You might be interested to know they are all volunteers too!

The money raised by the P&C is used to purchase valuable resources for your child's educational experience. In the past years we have contributed monies towards interactive whiteboards, home readers and many other educational resources.

Joining the P&C a great way to meet other families, get involved and contribute to our school's future. We would love to have you on board!

Join our P&C

We encourage every parent of Newbridge Heights PS to become a member of the P&C. We are always looking for new ideas, fresh faces and of course, much needed volunteers to help with fundraising activities. Even if you have just one hour a week to spare, we will find a job for you. Whether it is volunteering in our canteen, helping at Mother's Day and Father's Day stalls or preparing for events, we appreciate any help we can get.

It is so easy to join the P&C and it is a fantastic way of being able to be part of your child's education. When the school is thriving, so are our kids. Simply attend the P&C meetings on the third Tuesday, 7pm in the library, and be part of the decision making and planning that goes into raising funds and adding resources to our school.

'It really does take a village to raise a child.'

To learn how to join our P&C, please contact the school office for our email.
