Parents and Citizens Association
The P&C is the voice of parents and carers within the school. Attending P&C meetings is a great way to learn about activities taking place in the school and how you can contribute. The P&C welcome the involvement of all interested parents and carers. Meetings are usually held in the school library on Tuesday evenings at 7pm in Weeks 3 and 7 during school terms.
The main objectives of the P&C are to:
- promote the interests of Torrens Primary School
- encourage the close cooperation of teaching staff, parents and students
- assist in providing educational, recreational and sporting equipment, and
- stimulate interest in education and promote community interests involving the school or its children.
Each year the P&C provides thousands of dollars for school equipment and assists in financing selected major projects. In the past the P&C has provided money towards a fitness circuit, musical instruments, class resources, playground equipment and an all purpose court.
The P&C also runs a second hand uniform shop and various social and fundraising functions for parents and children including general parent meetings, dances and guest speakers. The biggest event on the P&C fundraising calendar is the biennial Twilight Fair. Most importantly, the P&C provides opportunities for parents to meet and work with teachers for the benefit of the children.
