The Star of the Sea College Parents’ Association (PA) is a group of parent and guardian volunteers who are a critical part of the support network for parents.
The PA organises social events to give parents and guardians the opportunity to connect with one another and the wider Star community, with fundraising events, class representatives and event volunteers all part of the makeup of the association.
The College supports the PA in a variety of ways, and Deputy Principal – Staff, Ms Bernadette Turner, attends meetings and gives relevant updates.
