P & F Association Information

​​  

​​The P&F Committee is an integral part of the Assisi Catholic College Community.

As a Catholic school in the Franciscan tradition, the College P&F represent a large body of parents with students ranging from Prep to Year 12.  Built over a 10 year period in the fast growing suburb of Upper Coomera, South East Queensland, we are now a fully established Catholic College.

  

In 2015 the College celebrated its 10 Year Anniversary.

 The main objectives of the P&F Committee are to: 

  • Create and maintain a strong sense of community and belonging within the College partnerships;

  • Actively support the College in all facets of 21st Century learners, parents / carers and staff based on the Catholic ethos;

  • Act as the conduit between Parents and the College;

  • Be involved in shaping our child(rens) educational journey;

  • To foster parent-teacher-student understanding and communication whether it be academic, community, cultural, faith, sporting or vocational.
