Why Join Wilston State School P&C?
Membership of the P&C is a great way to help support our school, your children's journey at Wilston State School while making new friends and connections.
By being involved in the P&C you are kept updated regularly on what is happening within our school, school policies and procedures, hearing directly from our Principal and P&C news – it also means you can have active input.
Membership of the P&C is open to all interested parties and your involvement can be as little as attending the monthly meeting to a larger job of convening our very popular Fete.
P&C members make a difference by:
-
consulting on school policy
-
financial planning and budgeting
-
managing on-site businesses (tuckshops, uniforms, after school care)
-
assisting with school functions
-
building school communities
-
making the school a happier and more connected place.

P&C membership must be renewed each year.
Membership applications are not accepted until voted on at a P&C meeting. New members must be present at the P&C meeting after submitting membership forms, with the exception of the AGM.
