The Parents and Citizens Association Committee (P&C) is run by a passionate group of volunteers who are the voice of the parents of the Coogee Primary School community. We work collaboratively to promote the educational, moral, physical and social wellbeing of our students, parents and the wider school community.

P&C Associations are an officially recognised forum where anyone over the age of 18 who is interested in the welfare of government schools can meet to discuss educational issues, but here at Coogee Primary, as the official parent representative body, we work together to enhance our children’s learning environment. Fostering friendships and building on our school community spirit, we are at the core of being that ever important conduit between parents; staff; and of course; the students themselves.

The Coogee P&C aren’t just here to fundraise, although we host a number of activities throughout each year; some are to raise funds to be reinvested into the school for the benefit of students, whereas others are purely to provide social connections which families need more than ever in this day-and-age, we also offer support for the school, promoting their core values and laurels which the school administration instill in their students and staff every day.

In 2020 the P&C raised almost $54,000 which was used to fund projects such as the new interschool shirts, shade sails for an outdoor play area, large Connect-4 Games, fund the inaugural 2021 Welcome Picnic for families and contribute to the 2020 Year 6 Camp fundraising efforts which had been heavily hampered by a tough COVID-19 year.

Our monthly meetings provide a relaxed, friendly and open environment where people can join any time of the year or link-in via Zoom/Facetime – attending meetings isn’t necessary to be involved or have your voice heard.

To join, email coogeeprimarypandc@gmail.com or find us on Facebook and remember - Teamwork makes the dreamwork!
