P&C - Campbell High School

Welcome from the Campbell High School P&C

Association (P&C). All parents/carers of a child(ren) at CHS are automatically members of the CHS P&C.

The main aim of the P&C is to promote a strong partnership between the school and parents/carers, in order to promote students' academic learning as well as social-emotional wellbeing. The P&C does so through providing a forum for constructive discussion, amongst parents/carers and with Campbell High's executive staff,

The P&C committee facilitates:

· general meetings twice a term;

· parent/carer information sessions/workshops on topics of interest; and

· small donations to the school to help purchase items/equipment or programs, as put forward by Campbell High School faculty heads.

Some examples of past beneficiaries are:

Library - Kobo readers, technology support

The P&C caters for the parent-teacher evening(s) in Term 1 and provides a thank you breakfast for the annual World Teachers' Day in term 4.

The P&C meets in week 4 and week 8 in Terms 1, 2 and 3 and in weeks 3 and week 7 in Term 4. Meetings commence at 5:30pm in the school’s library and all parents and carers are welcome. You can also join meetings online.

Meetings consist of a report from the school’s principal on significant happenings in the school and an opportunity to raise issues and ask questions. P&C committee members also facilitate discussion around a particular theme/issue raised from feedback/suggestions from parents/carers.
