At Glendowie Primary we have a very active Parents’ Association (PA). We’re a voluntary group of parents who fundraise and organise events throughout the year to raise money for additional resources to enhance our children’s learning and educational experience.
As part of our fundraising we organise social events for students and parents, which help to bring the school community together as well as foster a fun, all inclusive, “I care” environment.
We meet about once a month and we would love to see some new faces on the committee; the more members we have, the more we can achieve. It is also a wonderful way to meet other parents, make friends, be in the 'know' and to support your school.

Get Involved
We encourage all parents/guardians to complete the “Request for Contact Details form”.
Contact detailed are collated into a class specific mailing list and coordinated by a Parent Class Representative. This helps to support parents in getting to know each other, and supports the efficient and timely communication of class social activities, school events and requests for assistance.
