Connecting College and Community

October Meeting Update

The October Friends of Pacific meeting was full of information as there had been no meetings in August or September due to OCEANfest and the school holidays.

The OCEANfest Committee and Friends of Pacific are extremely pleased to report that the event raised a rounded figure of $37 000. We are extremely grateful to the Pacific community and the businesses that supported this event. This profit will directly benefit all students at the College. 

We also appreciate your patience for the release of figures. Many of the invoices were not presented until well after the event and the final allocation and breakdown of income and expenses was reliant on everything being accounted for. A final thank you to our community for supporting this event.

Cycle Skills Program

This year, Friends of Pacific assisted in the submission of a grant application to run the Cycle Skills program in 2017. The grant application was successful and the College will receive funds to roll out this program next year.

November AGM

On Tuesday 15^th November at 7.00pm, the Friends of Pacific AGM will be held, followed by our regular meeting. All meetings are held in the library meeting room and we warmly invite the community to attend.

At the AGM, all committee positions will be declared vacant and the 2017 committee will be elected. Friends of Pacific provide a wonderful opportunity to connect with other parents and be involved in a variety of events and initiatives at the College. We encourage new members who are interested in nominating themselves or someone else to email: fop@pacluth.qld.edu.au.
