PTA 2021 AGM and Funding Meeting

PTA contact —

Our next PTA Meeting will be held on Monday 10th of May 2021 at 7.30 pm in the staffroom.

PTA Funding for school projects. During our meeting, we will consider all funding applications and decide which of those projects will be funding this year. The PTA donations received by the school are allocated back to school activities via two funding rounds held each year. These applications are prepared by members of the school faculty on behalf of the students. As a group, the PTA review those applications and allocate the funds to those school projects which meet our funding criteria to promote and support school activities and groups. 

PTA funds come from the voluntary annual PTA donation that appears on your school invoice. The PTA does not undertake any other fundraising so we appreciate your contribution. 

We are happy that in 2020 we were able to fund 14 projects with a total of $19,160 plus GST. $17,270 of this was from parent donations and $2,020 came from the profits from the Uniform Shop.

During our AGM meeting, we will also present our performance financial report for the year 2020.
