P&C Federation Awards
The P&C Federation Awards are now closed
We want to celebrate and recognise the incredible work done in public schools throughout the state. Whether it is the contribution of a particular individual in your school community, your school’s principal, or your P&C Association – the P&C Federation Awards are an opportunity to showcase these efforts and reward outstanding work. No matter how big or small your school community is, we want to recognise hard work and collaboration in all its forms. We have three categories of awards, each with their own criteria. The winners of our P&C Federation Awards will be announced at our annual conference later this year.
