P and F
What is the Parents and Friends Association?
The Parents and Friends Association is the vehicle by which the parent body contributes its time, energy and support to the teachers and students of Golden Hill. All families at our school are automatically P&F members.
Some of the roles a school P&F may play include:
- Instigating and organising social or fundraising events and assist in the planning and preparation for whole school events such as festivals and open days.
- Providing opportunities for parents and friends to become familiar with the philosophical basis upon which the school was founded, via educational evenings and workshops.
- Supporting school families in need, whether through hardship, loss, illness or other factors.
Being involved in a P&F group provides a lot of potential for fun & community connection.
Why do we need a P&F Association?
Being part of a P&F group strengthens our community’s bonds and builds a sense of belonging, which lies at the heart of our school’s culture.
