Parent & Friends

Welcome to the Wantirna Primary School Parents and Friends Network.

The Parents and Friends Network each year organises the fundraising events for the school. We are a group of parents that promote the community spirit of the school. Fundraising is an essential part of the running of the school and the PFN prides itself in working tirelessly raising funds for so many worthwhile projects. The primary aim of the PFN is to make all families feel they have a part to play in the school, and a contribution in helping to make their child’s years in the school a positive time in their life. New parents are actively encouraged to join the Committee every year. In order that the PFN committee be truly represented, a minimum of two representatives are sought per class at the time of the Annual General Meeting in March.

If you can join our committee please contact the school office on 9801 – 1938 or just come along to our meetings. All Welcome.

A Word From Our Parents

{

I remain pleasantly surprised with our child’s growth and enthusiasm about school – thank you for helping to provide such a strong foundation, building confidence for the children to make their own decisions about the present and the future (and step out of the comfort zone).
