Parents & Friends Association

WHO ARE THE PFA?

The Parents & Friends Association (PFA) of Pascoe Vale Primary School is dedicated to bringing the school community together and connecting families with each other.

Working closely with the Principal and School Council, the PFA organise a series of events and fundraising activities throughout the year for the benefit of all the school children and community.

Members meet to discuss ideas for improvements, fundraising activities, to plan social events, or to assist with arrangements for school activities such as school walkathons. Recent fundraising activities contributed to literacy, classroom furniture, outdoor landscaping improvements and STEAM needs.

Everyone is encouraged to get involved in whatever capacity they can. PFA members are easy-going and friendly, and they enjoy many social functions together. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people and make friends while supporting the school. We recognise everyone has a busy schedule and appreciate any time PFA members can donate to the school.
