Parent Involvement

We believe that a strong partnership between parents and teachers assists in a student’s education.

Parents are invited to participate in their children's education through a wide range of activities. The school community encourages and depends to some degree on the talents of parents to campaign and fundraise for school improvement.

Parents can be involved in many ways:

  • Literacy classroom helpers
  • Numeracy support
  • Parents as experts in the classroom
  • Excursions
  • Library shelving and covering new books
  • Assemblies and other events such as Chinese Days
  • Liturgies
  • School Sports
  • School Board
  • Parents and Friends Association
  • Running Club
  • Sustainability Parent Green Team

What our parents & students say

"St Columba's is known as the little school with the big heart and you notice that when you first arrive. Every teacher and every student knows your child by name. They offer bespoke learning experiences for children to enjoy while at school."
