Welcome to the St. Paul's Primary School Bentleigh Parents and Friends Association website.

 

The P&F plays a vital role in building the community spirit of the St Paul's school. Its events and functions provide opportunities for parents and staff to gather together in a spirit of fun and friendship. The P&F comprises of parents, guardians and friends of students as well as staff.

 

St Paul's has a highly effective and friendly P&F that meets once approximately once a term.

 

New parents and friends are always welcome.

 

 

Message from The President...

 

In 2017, the P & F are starting the year with a fantastic family event on  Thursday, February 16th – "Family Welcome Night with African Drumming".  Look out for advertising in the newsletter and on our Facebook page.

 

The team have also organised our first mums get together at the Kingston Town Hall Pop Up Bar. It was a great night last year with a terrific band and a really good turn out from the St. Paul's mums. I encourage new mums to come along to this casual and fun event on Friday, February 24th from 7.30pm.

 

The dads and maybe some teachers will be having a friendly cricket match on Sunday, February 26th at Victory Park. This is always a fun match with lots of laughs. Anyone who would like to participate in the game please contact Dino Moscato dino.moscato@gmail.com

​

 

​Being part of the P & F is a rewarding and enjoyable way of being involved in our school community. It is a great opportunity to meet other families and to get to know people from all different year levels. Every event/function of the P & F needs volunteers to help organise and execute. I strongly encourage you to get involved in any capacity you can.

 

 

We aim to provide support for the school in areas such as:

 

• Foster community spirit with social functions for the school community

• Fundraising – including running the school fete

• Parent Support Network

• Uniform Shop

 

Our first meeting will be held on Wednesday February 22nd at 7:30pm in the Staff Room.

 

All are welcome and as most positions are filled, feel free to come along without the pressure to commit to an office bearer's role.
