As a parent or carer, you are an important part of our school community. We offer a range of services to support you and your family.
Parents and Citizens’ Association (P&C)
Our Parents and Citizens’ Association (P&C) is made up of parents and carers, teachers and community members. The P&C meets regularly to contribute to decision-making, developing policies and management plans as well as fundraising.
Come join us at the meetings or join online via the teams meeting link. This link is emailed out to parents/carers before the P&C meeting.
Tomaree High School P&C is about making connections. We understand that families are very busy by the time children get to High School. We are here to support that transition and the future pathway of students.
As a Tomaree HIgh School P&C member you won't feel like you have to take on a role in the P&C. We have dedicated staff who are also parents, supporting the needs of our P&C so parents can attend without any added pressure.
We love to see new faces and need your voice for future planning of Tomaree High School in providing a safe, supportive learning environment for very child.
The P&C meetings will be held the first Tuesday of every month during the school term.
Please check your emails for P&C updates.

Interpreting and translations
We will help you communicate with our school. If you’d like an interpreter for a school meeting, let us know and we will arrange one, if available.
If you don’t speak or understand English well and want to contact us, call TIS National on 131 450 and ask for an interpreter in your language. The operator will call the school and get an interpreter to help. This service is free.
For more information, listen in your language.
Visit the department’s translated documents section for important information that’s relevant for your child’s education in many languages.
