P&C Day, Purpose in Action!

Happy P&C Day week to every volunteer, committee member, helper, advocate, and supporter across NSW public schools.

P&C Day is a celebration of everything our P&C Associations represent – commitment, community spirit, advocacy, and a deep belief in the value of public education. Across the state, thousands of parents and carers give their time to improve school life, strengthen connections, support learning environments, and ensure families have a meaningful voice in education. This truly is “Purpose in Action”.

This day is an opportunity to recognise that purpose and celebrate the incredible contribution of P&C Associations. Whether your P&C excels at supporting school initiatives, advocating for resources, building community through events, or strengthening communication between families and schools – your work has a tangible and lasting impact on every student’s experiences.

Be sure to check out our WhatApp channel to see P&C stories from all across NSW.

P&Cs are built on generosity, collaboration, and a shared commitment to stronger school communities. On behalf of the P&C Federation of NSW, thank you for the dedication, care, and energy you bring to this work every day.Happy P&C Day! And thank you for continuing to turn purpose into real action for students, families, and public education.

Tim Spencer
Interim CEO
