Connecting College and Community
Connecting College and Community
We warmly welcome all families to Pacific Lutheran College this year and thank all families, especially those new to Pacific, who joined us at the Welcome Breakfast this morning.
It is with great pleasure we announce the Friends of Pacific fundraising efforts from 2017 has allowed the College to invest in two big breeze fans for the gym. The installation of the fans next week will benefit the entire Pacific community and provide some welcome relief from the warm Queensland climate.
In 2018 FoP will continue working to create and host signature events for the Pacific community while fundraising in the effort to make further contributions.
The Newwave Aloha OCEANfest, to be held on Friday 17th August, aims to bring students, parents and staff together with the local community to celebrate Pacific’s unique culture. Not just an evening out with family and friends, OCEANfest aims to highlight and showcase the spirit of the Pacific community as well as the talent of our students and the incredible parents and grandparents who support each stall.
We are extremely grateful for the support, involvement and connections made by our parent representatives over the years. This year, we will have parent representatives and social coordinators in the Middle/Senior College in addition to those in the Junior College. We welcome the following parents to roles so far:
- Year 12 – Sarah Minns and Mel Dines
- Year 10 – Tracey Hindmarsh and Allyson Sarvari
- Year 9 – Penni Buchanan
- Year 8 – Anita and Andrew Edmonds
- Year 7 – Kath Barry and Allison Dean
Should you wish to join the team in your child’s year, please contact the office or email us at: fop@pacluth.qld.edu.au.
The next FoP meeting will be held on Tuesday 20th February at 6.30pm in the College library. We encourage all interested parents and staff, new or otherwise, to join us.
