National Child Protection Week

National Child Protection Week was recognised across the country last week but at Penrith Anglican College it is a daily priority. We want all children and young people who attend Penrith Anglican College to feel and be safe. We are committed to providing a child-safe and child-friendly environment, where children and young people are safe and feel safe and can participate in decisions that affect their lives.

We have zero tolerance for child abuse and are committed to doing what we can to keep students safe from harm.

The College regards its child safety responsibilities with the utmost importance and is committed to providing the resources required to ensure compliance with all relevant child protection laws and regulations and maintaining a child-safe culture.

If you have any concerns about Child Safety, please contact the College immediately.

National Teacher Aide Appreciation Week

National Teacher Aide Appreciation Week is the perfect time to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our Teachers Aides who work in Pre-K, Learning Support, Technologies, Visual Arts, Music, Science and Sport. These valuable staff make a real difference in the lives of our students, teachers, and families every single day!

Whether they are supporting students in the classroom, providing one-on-one assistance, or helping with administrative tasks, they are essential to our work as a College each day. Thank you for your patience, kindness, and commitment to helping every student thrive. We are sincerely appreciate for everything you do.

Parents and Friends Association

The Parents and Friends Association is a valued team within our College community. They support our students and families with events like the Mother's and Father's Day stalls, our recent Colour Run and our upcoming Primary Disco. These events also contribute valuable funds for projects such as bike racks, equipment in the new Technologies Workshop, basketball/netball hoops for the court refurbishment and the new sandpit for the Pre-K playground.

The Parents and Friends Association recently held its AGM. At this meeting, Sunny Hunt, Danielle Willmington, and Nicole Gerace finished their time on the Committee. We will publicly thank these ladies later in the year, but we want to take this opportunity to thank them for generously volunteering their time and efforts with the Parents and Friends Association. Our particular thanks to Sunny Hunt, who has served faithfully for many years, most recently as the President. Sunny's dedication and support is truly appreciated and have made a real difference in our community.

We welcome the new members of the Committee

President - Emily Ray

Vice President - Amanda Swart

Treasurer - Wendy Barker

Secretary - Janelle Lupton

All parents and friends are warmly invited to the next meeting on Monday 14 October at 7.30pm in the College Boardroom.
