The Moriah College Parents’ and Friends’ Association, better known as the P&F, has been in existence since the College started in 1943 and serves as a link between the parents and the College as a whole.
Our reason for being is simply to provide service.
We achieve this in a number of ways, but mainly through:
Fundraising and
"Friend-raising"
Of course, “service” means different things to different people.
Our definition includes:
· Providing service to the entire student body (K – 12) through:
o Managing the uniform shop
o Catering for school events
o Preparing class lists
o Distributing annual books and stationery
· Providing essentials and extras to the entire College - both staff and students - with funds raised by the P&F:
o Purchasing playground and audio-visual equipment
o Purchasing musical instruments
o Helping to implement the College’s special needs program
Most recently, our funds have enabled us to:
Make better use of our existing computers and IT facilties, supporting larger numbers of students and staff
Trial wireless networking in the Primary School (now implemented throughout the College)
Facilitate mobile classrooms within the Primary School
Finalise the purchase of "Elvis", the state-of-the-art school bus
Purchase computerised Interactive White Boards for each classroom in the new Primary School building
Finally, we provide services to the parent body by offering them the opportunity to:
Have hands-on involvement in College activities
Make new friends and form great networks
Support our children's education and College experience
