We highly value family involvement in the school community, as we understand that children are more engaged in their learning and have better social and emotional skills, when they feel supported and secure.

We use a variety of mediums to stay connected to parents and carers including newsletters, the Compass student information system, social media and, of course, phone calls and emails.

We also invite parents and carers to be involved in school events, such as assemblies, morning teas and parent-teacher interviews.

Should you wish to communicate further, please feel free to contact your school.

We are committed to easing the pressure on busy parents and carers by providing before and after school care across our network of schools through partnerships with providers such as Sydney Catholic Early Childhood Services. Please visit your school’s website to find out more details on the hours, activities and availability of before and after school care at your school.

For members of our community, there are a variety of facilities for community voice at schools. Check with your local school for the opportunities available. These can include parent associations, advisory councils, parent engagement forums, information nights, social and fundraising events.

We are fortunate to be able to rely on the generosity of volunteers in our school community to lend a hand when needed. However, we strongly commit to having child safe communities and ensure all our volunteers undergo a Working with Children Check before they are involved in any school activities.
