FRIENDS & FAMILY
Friends & Family of St Ignatius School is an all-inclusive parent teacher association or PTA.
We are on a mission to raise funds to help make our school environment an amazing place to be, bring our school community together and have a whole lot of fun along the way.
We are a little school with a big heart!
Through our fundraising initiatives and events such as our non-uniform day for the feast day of St Patrick, Bays Suburbs Football Tournament, Moretons quiz night, the school disco, Move-A-Thon, dude’s night and so much more, we are able to bring our school community together, enjoy connecting and camaraderie.
Our aim for 2025 is to raise much needed funds for learning assistants who will offer additional support for our learners.
How can you help?
Join our F&F sub-committee:
We are always on the lookout for awesome volunteers to jump on board and help bring initiatives and events to life!
Getting involved is a great way to meet other families in the school and have some fun while making a meaningful contribution to our school.
We do have a group of six core committee members including a chairperson, secretary and treasurer who manage the events throughout the year, and then we have a sub-committee of volunteers who help out when it works for them.
We communicate through a WhatsApp group chat where we call on volunteers to help out when they can with Pizza Friday lunches, sausage sizzles, Friday Freeze afternoons in the summer, handing out ice-blocks and more.
He rau ringa e oti ai – Many hands make light work.
Send us an email with your full name and mobile, expressing interest to join the sub-committee and we will add you to the group.
Do you own a local business? Or work in an organisation that could bring some value?
To help us plan our events and create fundraising ideas, it would be really helpful to know what businesses you or your wider family are involved with.
Do you have prizes you would be able to donate to a great cause? Whatever it is, it would be great to know who in our school community we can collaborate with. We would love to support local and champion sustainability wherever we can.
The best way to get in touch with our PTA is via email.
