Community

What is the PFA?
The PFA is a large group of parents and teachers who volunteer their time and efforts to provide fundraising, social and pastoral support to our school community. The parents of St Patrick’s are a social, hard-working and energetic group and our community spirit is a very special characteristic of our school.

How does the PFA contribute to our school?
The PFA contributes a range of big and small activities such as:
• St Patricks Picnic
• Canteen
• Shamrock (year book)
• Second-hand uniform shop
• Social events for parents and children
• Casserole bank
• School concert
• Mother’s and Father’s Day Gift Stalls

Get involved!
Come along to PFA meetings whenever you can to share ideas and help make decisions about our school community.

Everyone is welcome and it is a great opportunity to have a laugh and get to know other parents.

There are many ways to contribute to our school…bring a fresh opinion to meetings, help run a stall at the IFF, wrap presents for the Mother’s Day staff, help out in canteen, bake a casserole, water the vegie garden or decorate the venue for a social night….we need you!

Who can I contact?
If you would like to get involved or need to get in contact with the PFA for any reason, our email is stpatspfa@gmail.com

At St Patrick’s, all students are required to wear the complete uniform at all times. A uniform dress code reinforces student pride in their own appearance, instils recognition of themselves as an integral part of our school community and assists in developing pride in representing our school. Issues of equality, health and safety, and expense are also factors that contribute to the establishment of the Uniform Policy.
