P&C Day
Schools are encouraged to organise an event to celebrate P&C Day on Friday 25 May 2012 to recognise the contribution of parents and citizens' associations to state school communities across Queensland. Here are some ideas that schools can implement.
- Approach a local business to sponsor a thank you morning tea and invite members of your parents and citizens' association as well as your QCPCA regional council.
- Have the students serve food and provide the entertainment.
- Have a special school assembly where the school captains give a public vote of thanks to your parents and citizens' association.
- Invite a member of your parents and citizens' association to the school to speak to students about their role.
- Get students to write articles about the great things your parent and citizens' association does for the school community and publish it in your school newsletter or school website.
- Ask a local coffee shop to provide a discount on a cup of coffee for the day. Make up some vouchers that you can give to your parents and citizens' association members so they can claim their 'thank you' gift.
- Remember to contact your local newspaper to let them know about your event and encourage them to write a story to promote the good work done by your parents and citizens' association.
Schools can register their event to add it to the State Education Week calendar.
