| Parents' Association |
| This association meets regularly. At these meetings topics of interest are discussed and the home/school link is greatly strengthened. Class representatives are elected at the first Meet-the-Teacher meeting of the year. The PA is a working body of the school and parents are strongly encouraged to become involved in one of the following portfolios: Tuckshop, Fundraising, Sports Catering, Clothing Exchange, Lost Property, Flowers, Garden Team, Catering and Recycling.
The PA holds a number of fundraising events throughout the year. There is a structured approach to fundraising and the philosophy of the PA is that events are not purely the "giving of money," but people paying for something where they get a return, whether it be food, drink or entertainment. |

| Recycling |
| Recycling of paper and paper products is run by a staff member. Boys are encouraged to bring paper to school on a regular basis. |

| Class representative |
