FLODGE P&C
The Forest Lodge Public School P&C are proud to be of service to our village-like school community. Through fundraising, sponsorships and events, they support the school with funds to enhance children’s education and upgrade school infrastructure (additional to what the Department of Education already provides).
P&C meetings are held every 3rd and 8th week of every Term and matters raised cover all aspects of schooling from curriculum delivery, school policies, programs and planning, to fundraising efforts and other practical help.
P&C fundraising initiatives raise funds are used to support annual targets set jointly by staff and parents and include purchasing of teaching and learning resources, subsidising special programs for students and staff training, and development initiatives.
All parents and carers are welcome to join the Flodge P&C Committee. Your level of involvement is up to you - it can be as little or as much as you want. You could contribute via cash donations, volunteering or by becoming a P&C Executive Team member.
Membership is $2.00 per year.
Next P&C Meeting Date

If you are 5/6 parent and/or carer and interesting putting your hands up to form the organising committee, please send your name and contact details to mail@flodge.net.au
The P&C is adopting a new approach this year whereby each stage is asked to take the lead on one fundrising event, the objective is to spread the load.
Stage 3 (Yr 5/6) - Inflatable Movie Night (Saturday 6th April)
Stage 2 (Yr 3/4) - Parents Night Out (mid-year)
Stage 1 (Yr 1/2) & Kindy - Halloween Disco
The P&C Approach 2024
'In a fun and inclusive manner, inspire greater participation and engagement amongst the Forest Lodge Parent Community while being positive role models of civic engagement for our children and raising money which delivers value for their education.'
Full Funding Matters
Please sign the online Petition - We support 100% funding!
Currently 98% of public schools in NSW do not receive their full funding requirements under the minimums set by the School Resourcing Standard (SRS)
Some of the things full funding means for your child and school:
- New and upgraded facilities and technology
- More teachers and smaller class sizes
- Intensive support and assistance for children with additional needs
- Programs for students falling behind to help them to succeed
- Improved student wellbeing with more resources
- One on one support for students
