P&C Role
The Maribyrnong Primary P&C promotes community participation in the activities of the school. All parents and carers of students at the school are members of the P&C, and other interested individuals may become members. The P&C has a number of objectives including:
- promotion of the interests of the school
- fostering collaboration between staff, parents and other citizens
- provision of a forum where members can contribute to the development of the goals and policies of the school.
P&C activities include:
- managing and staffing the canteen
- assisting with school functions
- conducting social functions and fundraising activities, such as the annual Twilight Fair.
