Parents and citizens (P&C)

Welcome to the Bomaderry High School (BHS) parents and citizens (P&C) section, we are so glad you have made your way here!

Bomaderry High School is fortunate enough to have a supportive and enthusiastic group of parents/carers/teachers who meet throughout the year to share ideas, listen to school updates from our Principal, communicate directly with students(SRC) and teachers, plan events and allocate funds to support and enrich our school community. Meetings are fun and inclusive allowing parents to connect with their child’s education first hand.

All parents are welcome to come along to the P&C Meetings held every second Thursday of the school term months, from 6.30pm held at the Bomaderry High School.

Whether you are an interested parent/carer wanting to participate in the school P&C, or you are just wanting to take a peek at what goes on at a meeting…all parents are encouraged to come along to share a cuppa/treat and meet your child’s school community. Help create your child’s future!

“The best way to predict your future is to create it.”– Abraham Lincoln

So what is BHS P&C?

We are a friendly, fun and productive group that works in partnership with school to make sure our students are supported and inspired as much as we possibly can.

What does that mean? What do we do?

We play an active role in the school community: running a healthy canteen, with all profits going straight back into school; providing parent/carer voices to decision making; and funding a wide variety of ‘extras’ that otherwise wouldn’t be able to run.

Why bother?

Meetings, believe it or not, are actually fun! Also we learn a lot about what is happening at school and we get to make a real difference to the school too. The best kept secret, although you may have been told otherwise, high school students really do like it when parents/carers show an interest in their school.

How?

• Meetings: 6.30pm on every second Thursday of the month during term time. Meetings are held at the Bomaderry Bowling Club.
• Visitors and new members are always welcome! Please drop in and stay for as long as suits. We understand how busy parents/carers are. We promise you won’t be made to do anything you are uncomfortable with.
• e-Network: If coming to meetings isn’t possible, or isn’t your thing but you would still like to hear about what we are doing, please click on the Sign-up to the e-Network. 

What else?

There are other ways of helping out too;

• Canteen volunteers are desperately needed. You don’t need experience, there’s a whole range of different tasks on offer (washing up, stacking fridges or cupboards, washing tea towels, food prep – as little or as much as you like).
• Canteen lunches; the simplest way to fund raise – make sure your kids buy food from the canteen – remember all profits go straight back into BHS.
• Events; we often need an extra pair of hands to help with events eg Naplan breakfast, Yr 7 welcome breakfast.
• Working Bees; come along to help spruce up our kids learning environments.
• Fundraising; we are always keen to get more money for our school and are very keen for help.
• Suggestions: We are always keen to hear your comments, suggestions and ideas. Please forward Comments/suggestions to bomaderryhighschoolpandc@gmail.com
