P&C ASSOCIATION

President: Leanne Tsekouras

No school can be a good school and take its proper place in the community without full parental support and cooperation. It is only when staff, students and parents have mutual cooperation, respect and confidence that education becomes vital and worthwhile. It is important that parents are aware of the school's aims and philisophy and that teachers should know of parents' attitudes and aspirations.

Some understanding can be achieved by joining the Parents and Citizens Association which meets twice each term on a Monday night. By attending these meetings parents get to know other parents and will understand the aims and goals of secondary education. School policy is discussed and reports on school activities are given. Without the efforts of the P&C Assocation, Kirrawee High would be ill-equipped as through the voluntary, tax-deductible P&C building fund, it provides the school with equipment and facilities not supplied by the Department of Education & Training.

Our P&C Association provides a forum through which school staff and others can present topics such as accessing Year 11 support structures, using the school library to support learning, teaching teenagers to drive and mainstreaming of Vocational Education and Training in the new HSC.
