Parents and Citizens' (P&C) associations work in productive partnership with their school principal and the community to promote the interests of the school, and facilitate its development and further improvement, to achieve the best possible outcomes for students.

P&Cs provide feedback and advice on school policies and activities, assist in providing resources to enhance student outcomes and are involved in a variety of school activities including fundraising, school functions and much more.

P&C Day on 21 May is the time to publicly thank hardworking P&C members for the tireless work they do each year to improve educational facilities, resources and student outcomes in Queensland state schools. P&C Day is held during National Volunteer Week, the best time to celebrate their inspiring efforts!

P&C Day on 21 May is the time that we publicly thank our hardworking P&C Executive and members for the tireless work they do each day and year to improve educational facilities, resources and student outcomes in Queensland state schools.

Today we will attend a Recognition Day event hosted by Minister Grace Grace at Bray Park SHS to acknowledge Maurie Rowe and the endless hours he has devoted to this school community over the last 8 years since he joined our school community. 

Scripture Union Deprtment of Education QLD chappies

SU QLD chaplains, or ‘chappies’, provide spiritual and emotional support to school communities. They are in the prevention and support business: helping students find a better way to deal with issues affecting school communities.

They provide a listening ear and a caring presence for children and young people and their families, and those who just need a friend. They also provide support for staff and parents in school communities.

• More than 67% of Queensland State Schools have a chappy.
• That leaves around 400 state schools without a chappy!
• SU QLD has placed chappies in 63% of all Queensland state primary schools and in 88% of all Queensland state high schools.
• Right now, our chappies are serving more than 400,000 Queensland students.

We are so pleased to have had a Chaplain since the concept was recognised. Our P&C continue to support the services. Our treasure is "Adrian Young" and he has been in the role at Mudgeeraba Special School for over a decade.

Yours in Education
