Parents and Friends

The Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School Parents and Friends’ Association (P&F) invites all parents to participate in and contribute to a host of School-related activities.

In our schools 50th year the P&F was proud to donate $50,000 towards the installation of the fourth Music Pod.  This will complete a portion of the performing arts precinct. It will also facilitate the renovation of the lower portion of the Auditorium building to create a new classroom space and in the future a rejuvenation of the front of the building with a new foyer, additional classroom and staff room. One donation, part of a much larger picture.

Funds were also donated for the creation of the student executive mindfulness garden, the realisation of the early childhood stream project, the purchase of two outdoor table tennis tables and other sporting equipment to be used during school breaks.

Annually we contribute towards speech day prizes for both primary and secondary, provide funds towards memory gifts for our leaving Year 12 students, celebrate Mother’s and Father’s Day, provide refreshments at athletics carnivals and cross-country events, facilitate parent dinners and get togethers.

Our Committee is keen and eager, but as always, needs the support of all our parents. We invite parents to join us at our meetings, come to events and enjoy the community spirit of the School. We encourage you to volunteer, participate and become an active member of our School community.

The P&F appreciate all input and support.

The P&F Statement of Purpose is:

  1. To promote the School as an organisation for its continued work with educating our children. We will do this by supporting any aspects of the Marketing team and School Executive that promote the value of education at Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School.
  2. To promote the sense of community within the School. We will do this by supporting and organising, as appropriate, functions and other events that facilitate the coming together of the School community – parents, extended family, children, staff – to enjoy each other’s company, share ideas and work together for the betterment of the School.
  3. To assist the students within the School community to achieve their goals and grow as a whole person to be all that they can be.

The committee is made up of parents from both Primary and Secondary, and meetings are open to all parents. They are held in the Bovell Meeting Room each month commencing at 5.30pm. Meetings run for one hour. The committee can be contacted by emailing pandf@bcgs.wa.edu.au
