About Us

The SGPS P&C is a registered not-for-profit association consisting of parents, carers, teachers and members of the community. We explore topics surrounding school life, fundraising and our community in an attempt to further develop and enhance the facilities, opportunities and resources our children have at school.

We organise events such as the Great Fete and Family Movie Night and oversee the operation of the Uniform Shop, School Canteen and School Bands, along with other endeavours, for the purpose of raising funds and providing a quality service to the school. The proceeds of our fundraising initiatives are primarily targeted towards enhancing the academic, social, emotional and physical well-being of our students. Additionally, we endeavour to empower parents and carers with information and knowledge to better support their children's education, growth and development at Samuel Gilbert Public School.

We aim to promote an inviting, inclusive, cohesive and engaged community and to foster a positive working relationship with the School Executive.

Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month during school term at 7:30pm in the School Library.

P&C sub-committees manage the School Canteen, Uniform Shop and Band, as well as organise and run The Great Fete.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to encourage an inviting, open and inclusive community. We participate in discussions and take actions that enhance a cooperative partnership between the school the families of SGPS students.

We support fundraising initiatives throughout the school year and invest those funds into opportunities that are academically, socially, emotionally and physically beneficial for the children.
