An IB World School

Research has shown that parents who take an active role in their child’s school life increase their child’s ability to learn and have a positive effect on academic achievement. At Aspendale Gardens Primary School, we encourage Parents and Grandparents to actively support student learning by becoming involved in a range of school and classroom activities and greatly appreciate the parents and community members who assist and support our programs. 

Activities that we would appreciate assistance with, include:

• Listening to students read, supporting group work.

• Supporting class activities such as cooking, arts and crafts etc.  

• Attending excursions and camps.  

• Providing administrative support, such as cataloging and covering library books.  

• Supporting fundraising activities. Joining the Fundraising Team or School Council. 

• Participating in school activities such as Book Week, open mornings, classroom celebrations.  

• Supporting the PMP program and sporting events.
