Bega High P&C's purpose is to support our teachers, students & families to build a stronger school community 💙🩵💙
We meet the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 5.30pm in the school front office - everyone is welcome to attend 😊 We recognise the importance of a community voice in supporting our students and meet regularly to contribute to decision-making, developing policies and management plans as well as fundraising. The P&C is established to:
- Promote the interests of our school, by bringing parents, citizens, students and teaching staff into close co-operation
- Assist in providing extra facilities and equipment for our school, and to promote the recreation and welfare of the students at our school
- Encourage parent and community participation in curriculum and other educational issues in the school
- Participating in staff employment selection committees (after attending a short seminar presented by the Education Department)
- Assist and co-operate with teaching staff at public functions associated with the school
It is the responsibility of our P&C Association to conduct the election of parent representatives for the Executive Committee. Our P&C is an unincorporated member of the Federation of P&C Associations and abides by the rules and guidelines of this body. All families at Bega High School are welcome and encouraged to participate in the P&C Association meetings and activities. We facilitate a positive, relaxed and fun forum to enable discussion and development of ideas with parents and staff. Together we can create an even better school for our students, and through increased communication at our meetings, enable future community relationships to flourish, benefitting all at Bega High School. Meetings are usually held the second Tuesday of each month starting at 5.30pm, and we meet at the Front Office meeting room. There is an optional membership fee of $2 per year which ensures your voting rights at meetings and also allows you to hold a position in the Executive Committee if voted in, but you are more than welcome to just come along to the meeting to present ideas and feedback as a non-member. There are many ways that you can support the P&C and its activities – as a non-member and as a member. You can:
• Donate second-hand uniforms, calculators, sports equipment, music equipment, art supplies, textbooks etc
• Attend and support or volunteer at events and fundraisers
• Spread the word about P&C activities
• Like and Follow the Bega high School P&C page here for updates
• Provide sponsorship or financial donations to support P&C activities
