FoP Community Levy

During the Friends of Pacific Annual General Meeting, held on 20th February 2024, it was raised and collectively agreed upon to introduce a community levy. The purpose of this community levy is to help contribute to initiatives that enhance the school experience for students, staff, and guests. This year’s levy will go towards funding the large screen which will be installed in the new gym. The levy will be included in the school fees at a charge of $20 per semester per family.

Thanks again to our wonderful Volunteers at the Senior Athletics Carnival – we could not support or students, staff, and parents without their help.

Haven’t completed you Volunteering Training at Pacific yet and want to help us in our upcoming event!!!! Don’t worry it is quick and easy. This year, the College has streamlined the induction process by using a flexible delivery platform where volunteers work through the Volunteer Handbook, complete an electronic form, and upload relevant documentation. The Volunteer Handbook is accessible via the parent portal in Navigator - Nav Community Links.

If you have ever thought about volunteering or becoming a part of Friends of Pacific, now is the time. There are so many exciting events on the 2024 calendar, the more volunteers we have will ensure their success. Any questions please feel free to contact the Committee – fop@pacluth.qld.edu.au

Hosting events is only possible thanks to the efforts of those in our College community who give so generously of their time.

Have you heard about Pacific Together?

Pacific Together is a care-based service offered by Friends of Pacific to College families in times of need. If you, or someone you know within our College community, needs extra support during the year, the Pacific Together care group may be able to help in some small way or offer a care package. Please contact our Chaplain Mr Mark Hauser- mhauser@pacluth.qld.edu.au .

If you would like to support the continuation of the care-based service through a financial contribution, we invite you to contact Pacific Together via email: fop@pacluth.qld.edu.au
