Gemma’s deep understanding and extensive experience in P&C Associations, coupled with her practical expertise in their operations, uniquely position her as the ideal leader to navigate and enhance our organisation’s mission and impact.
“For the last year I have heard stories about the extraordinary efforts of our members to meet the funding gap in our schools. My first priority as CEO is to ensure that the Government invests in our children’s education and wellbeing.” Gemma said.
Gemma’s journey with the P&C Federation of NSW has been marked by her dedication to supporting our members, her commitment to enhancing public education, and her passion to see school communities thrive. Her leadership and vision will undoubtedly guide The P&C Federation into a new chapter of growth and success.
