At St. Monica's we invite parents and guardians to participate in the life of the school. Some of the opportunities for involvement are:
School Advisory Council
The School Advisory Council is made up of a group of parents, the Principal, Parish Priest and members of the Staff. Meetings are held regularly during the year.
Parents & Friends Committee
The St. Monica's Parents & Friends Committee works for the welfare of the school community. Parents are welcome and encouraged to be members. Meetings are held regularly during the year. All parents are urged to contribute in any way they can, to help support this committee.
The aims of this Committee are:
- To encourage the voluntary assistance of parents, to support the school, the teachers and the curriculum program.
- To promote the building of a stronger communtiy through social occasions.
- To raise funds towards the general recurrent costs of the school as well as specific projects.
Your child will receive Scholastic Book Club catalogues throughout the year. These provide you with an opportunity to purchase quality children's literature at discounted prices, each purchase earns our school points which can be redeemed on book purchases for the classrooms. There is no obligation to purchase, but if you wish to buy from the catalogues, please order online or return money with order form by the due date in a sealed envelope to the office.
