The Ranford Primary P&C is a group of hard-working and motivated parents who support the school’s efforts to provide a learning environment that is positive and engaging, supporting initiatives and projects at all levels of the school.
By working with the school on shared projects, the impact and support of the P&C is highly visible and much appreciated. The all-important role of the P&C in fundraising has allowed these shared projects to make a significant difference to the learning environment and enriched our resources.
Recent shared projects include:
- Supporting the building of a shade structure on the school oval playground.
- Enhancing the school environment with Ground Splash games.
- Creating an adventure Nature Play environment in the junior area of the school.
- Supporting classroom furniture resources.
- Supporting ongoing updates of laptop and iPad technology
- Provision of all end of photography of events as well as ribbons and trophies for sporting carnivals.
To support our shared projects, the P&C conduct fundraising events throughout the year, many of which have become traditional events such as the Easter Raffle and Mother’s and Father’s Day stalls.
The P&C also manages the school canteen which includes employing the Manager and Assistant.
The P&C actively supports the school’s Sustainability Plan by organising Containers for Change on the school site.
Meetings
P&C meetings are held in Week 5 of every term on a Tuesday, commencing at 7.00 pm. The meetings are efficiently chaired which ensures a limit of one hour.
Meetings provide open communication between the school Administration and the P&C, allowing for information to be shared as well as discussion about focus and priority areas.
