Community involvement

Our school values strong partnerships with our families and community. Parents and carers can get involved through our Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) or by volunteering at our school. Your time and support help make our school a better place for everyone.

Parents and Citizens Association (P&C)

Our P&C is a group of parents, carers and school community members. They assist with school planning, fundraising, events and volunteering. Our P&C works in partnership with our school to promote the interests of our school community.

Joining the P&C a great way to meet other families, get involved and contribute to our school's future. We would love to have you on board!

Volunteer at our school

Volunteering with the YPS P&C can be very rewarding, not to mention the excitement when your children see you helping out at school events.

There are a number of ways you can become involved:

YPS P&C Committee

The P&C Committee is made up of an Executive (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer) and committee members.  The committee is formed for the benefit of the pupils and strives to:

• Participate as much as possible in the activities of the school and communicate with all members of the school community
• Cooperate in the activities of the Federation of P&C Association of NSW and its Regional and District Councils, and
• Promote the interest of public education

The committee meetings are a great forum to discuss topics raised by parents, teachers and what’s happening at the school presented by the principal.  The question is, what can you do to best support the overall success of Young Public School. The end goal is the education of YPS students and how the committee can best contribute to this success.

Fundraising Activities

There are a number of fundraising activities that the P&C runs each term or annually.  We rely on parents to help coordinate and manage the activities and/or events.  The money raised goes towards purchasing new resources and equipment for our children to enhance their learning and time at Young Public School.  If you would like to be part of these activities or wish to put forward ideas to help our fundraising efforts, we would love to hear from you.
