Parents and Friends’ Association

Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS) acknowledges that schools are in a central position to act as a focal point for communities to come together. One of the avenues for schools to come together is by active participation in groups such as the College Parents and Friends Association. Our Parents and Friends’ Association plays an important and active role in supporting the College values of Competence, Conscience, Compassion and commitment in practical ways through activities both within and outside the College.

The College Parents and Friends Association are a group of passionate volunteers of the College who get together once or twice a Term in the College Boardroom for a light dinner to discuss fundraising events, program/event planning, administrative areas of support and policy amendments and any other roles required to support the College. Keeping a two-way open communication channel between families and the school is important to the team and helps build healthier and stronger partnerships between staff and parents. The meetings are for approximately 1 - 1.25 hours in duration and include student reports, leading teacher updates, and Principal's Reports.

As per our constitution, we aim to:

  • Arrange social gatherings to not only provide financial assistance to the school through fundraising, but to also provide an opportunity to build relationships between staff and parents.
  • Promote school spirit and sense of belonging, thus contributing to the wellbeing of the school community.
  • Work co- operatively with the school to discuss any College related projects or educational developments.

The College Parents and Friends Association welcomes new members for 2025. Membership is open to all parents and friends of the College and we encourage anyone to get involved in whatever capacity they can. The College Parents and Friends Association is a great way to meet new people, enjoy the company of friends whilst knowing you are playing an integral role to the College.
