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 school's Parents and Citizens (P&C) Association plays a significant role in supporting the school community. Here are some of their key functions:

• Fundraising: Our P&C organises events like Top Town Chicken Races, fetes, raffles and canteen to raise money for school projects, equipment, excursions and resources that may not be covered by the school's budget.
• Advocacy: They represent the interests of parents and the wider community, advocating for improvements in the school environment, facilities, and educational programs.
• Support: Our P&C offer practical support to the school through volunteer work, such as helping in the library, running the school canteen, or assisting with school events.
• Consultation: They provide a forum for parents to voice their opinions and ideas about the school.

P&C meetings are an opportunity for parents to discuss important issues with school staff and contribute to decision-making processes.

Our P&C meet twice a term in Weeks 3 and 8 on a Tuesday at 5.30pm.

The P&C hold their major fundraiser ‘The Top Town Chicken Races’ in March each year, along with running the canteen for the West Wyalong Harness Races three times during the year, as well other smaller events.
