- To provide opportunities for discussion, information and consultation about matters of common and/or topical interest to parents, teachers and pupils of the College.
- To promote and support the role of parents and guardians as the prime educators of their children.
- To be aware of and embody the Ethos of the College and its Carmelite influence so that all can advance in a spirit of co-operation and mutual support to the benefit of parents, guardians, pupils, teachers and the Community.
The Parents’ Association committee is comprised of parents representing both the Junior and Senior School together with members co-opted onto the committee by the college management. A monthly meeting of the committee is held to plan and discuss various activities scheduled for the coming year and to consider matters brought before it by parents or College Management.
Over the past number of years a variety of initiatives have been organised by the committee with a view to involving and enabling parents in matters relating to their children's development. The committee see this as an important part of its role and will continue to work on delivering events of interest to teachers, parents and students.
