The Bourkey P&C

The Bourke Street Public School P&C is a dynamic and supportive group of parents and carers who work together to strengthen our school community and create opportunities for our children.

Through fundraising and community initiatives, the P&C helps fund important school programs and resources. In recent years, support from families and local businesses has helped deliver:

• Our beautiful school playground

• Air-conditioning in every classroom

• Subsidies for the music and band program

• Technology and literacy resources

2025 is our fete year, and it is our major fundraising moment — bringing families, teachers, local businesses and supporters together to create something truly special for our school.

P&C Meetings

🕕 When: First Wednesday of every month, 6pm – 7:15pm

📍 Where: School library + online

✅ Who: Open to all parents and carers (members and non-members)

Meetings are a friendly space to:

• Hear updates from the school and P&C

• Share ideas and feedback

• Help make decisions that support our kids and school community

Note: Dates may shift around school holidays — please check Sentral for updates.

How You Can Get Involved

There are lots of ways to be part of the P&C — big or small:

• Volunteer at events (like the fete, BBQs or working bees)

• Join a committee (events, fundraising, sustainability, sponsorship)

• Become a Class Rep

• Attend monthly P&C meetings

• Vote on funding decisions (financial members only)

• Support fundraising drives

• Help spread the word

Myth busted: Coming to a P&C meeting doesn’t mean you’ll be given a job! You can simply listen, connect and stay informed.

Class Representatives

Each class has a Class Rep who helps share information between teachers, the P&C and families. Class Reps also help build community within their year group by coordinating class catch-ups and communications. Together, we achieve more for our children — and everyone is welcome to be part of it.
