The P&C exists to help provide our
children with the best possible learning and school environment. Sometimes this
is by being involved in discussion and decision making within the school, but
more often by way of raising funds to purchase equipment and paying for work to
be done. Here you will find a summary of major projects funded by and/or
coordinated by the members of the P&C in the past and what is planned.

Raising Funds - This is where YOU can help:
***NOTE: None of the P&C executive and members are paid to do what we do. We rely totally on volunteers and the support of the many wonderful parents we have here at Moggill. ***
Volunteer for events
Volunteer 'behind the scenes' - such as leaflet design, contacting people, writing newsletters, seeking donations, writing grant applications, chasing quotes for projects etc
Specialist skills or areas of expertise that you could offer - e.g.: running a BBQ, baking, electrical set-up, have a large trailer for shifting things for events, DJ etc. Please let us know!
Let us know if you own or work in a business which could quote for jobs (to reduce the time spent looking for tradesmen etc) or loan equipment for our events
Ideas and suggestions for projects which will enhance the school environment. Suggestions may be placed into the P&C Box in the school office or emailed to the above address.
Join the P&C and receive monthly minutes to keep up to date with what is happening.
Everyone is welcome to
come to the P&C meetings held on the 4th Wednesday each month at 7pm in
the Resource Centre. Most meetings are finished by 9pm and we are a very
happy, friendly bunch. It is a great place to get to know the “ins and outs” of
the school, what is happening and to meet parents from other grades.
