Community involvement

At Morpeth Public School, we warmly encourage parents and family members to take an active role in their child’s educational journey. We provide numerous opportunities for families to connect with class teachers and school executives, fostering open and supportive conversations about every aspect of their child’s experience at school. Families are also invited to participate in our vibrant school community through a variety of open days, assemblies, presentations, and special days of significance that celebrate student achievements and school success.

Our school is committed to developing a vision that truly reflects the diverse perspectives and ideas of both students and their families. Collaboration and the building of strong, productive partnerships lie at the heart of our approach, ensuring we continually improve and celebrate together. We believe that great outcomes arise when we work hand in hand with families.

The Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) offers an excellent opportunity for parents and family members to be deeply involved in supporting school programs and initiatives. Through the P&C, families can actively participate in school consultation processes and decision-making, helping shape a positive and inclusive school environment where every student can thrive. Together, we create a community dedicated to celebrating success and driving ongoing growth.
