The Parramatta East P&C is gearing up for a fantastic 2025, with some exciting fundraising events in store! The Annual General Meeting was held on February 17, 2025, with the following members voted in for the P&C Executive Roles:   

President: Peta Zammit 

Vice-presidents: Ainslie Scully and Jenny Coleman    

Treasurer: Amber Kankane 

Secretary: Greta Dumbleton 

For many of the fundraising events throughout the year, we will be calling on parents and carers to assist on the day – for example, the annual Mother’s Day stall and Father’s Day stall. Last year, we had a terrific turnout of helpers, and we look forward to more great support this year. These fundraising events can't be run without the help of our wonderful school community.  

The first fundraising event for 2025 will be the annual Easter Raffle draw. Further details will be coming out shortly, and the raffle winners will be announced at the Easter Hat Parade. 

Next up is our Mother’s Day stall, which will be held on Wednesday, May 7. Children are encouraged to bring cash on the day to buy gifts, with a range of beautiful options for sale, including pens, mugs, jewellery, notepads, stationery sets, on-the-go breakfast containers and much more. Alternatively, gift pre-orders are available – a note will be given to children in the coming weeks, which you can fill out and promptly return to the school. Mother’s Day gift pre-orders will close on Wednesday, April 9 (just before the school holidays) – all order forms and payments must be made by this date. Payment details will be provided on the order forms. 

P&C Meetings are held on the third Monday of each month (during school terms only) via Zoom, and all parents and carers are welcome to join. You do not have to be part of the P&C Executive Team to be active in the P&C. Meetings are held at 7pm and generally go for 30-45 minutes, and provide an opportunity to hear from the school Executive Team about the exciting things happening throughout the school. We look forward to seeing as many of you online as possible. 

The P&C’s main purpose is to raise funds to provide the school with additional resources that directly benefit our children. We hope to see you at the monthly Zoom meetings or around the school grounds at events. If you have any questions, please reach out to: ppe.pandc@gmail.com or you can follow us on Facebook.
