Parent Community

Parent Community Group

Our College is all about people and relationships. The Parent Community Group is our heart - and a great way of connecting people.

The group works closely with the College to build partnerships between the College, Parish and home and to empower parents to become more involved in their school.

The types of events and activities our Parent Community Group run include:

  • College Tours
  • Mother's and Father's Day Stall
  • Hungry No More Program
  • Mount Barker Christmas Pageant

All parents and carers within our College community are encouraged to become involved with the Parent Community Group. We understand commitment of time can be a huge challenge for everyone, however big or small you can contribute we would love to hear from you.

Parents and carers are incredibly important to the success of our College and how we interact within the community. Your ideas, experiences and suggestions are invaluable. If you would like to make a difference, share ideas and of course have some fun, please contact us by email PCG@stfrancis.catholic.edu.au
