Hello and welcome to Eatons Hill State School.

I thought this would be a good opportunity to let you know who the P&C is here at Eatons Hill State School:

• We are parents, grandparents, caregivers, and community minded people. We are always keen to see new members – it’s not scary, does not demand any commitment and is the best way to keep informed. Just fill out the enclosed form.
• We aim to promote the best interests of the school.
• We manage one of the largest P&C Operations in Queensland covering:
  • Outside Hours School Care with 255 places
  • Healthy Tuckshop
  • Uniform Shop
  • Facility Hire and Community Events

• We commit to returning all profits (around $400k p.a.) to the school community. In the past few years, we have funded
  • The oval transformation
  • New prep playground
  • Rainforest mural
  • Outdoor learning area (Sandstone Place)
  • Senior adventure playground
  • Tuckshop renovation
  • STEAM room
  • Hall air conditioning
  • Covered walkways
  • And much, much more!

Eatons Hill SS is a big school, and the P&C operations are large. Just this year, our volunteers have already organised four events, with another planned later this month:

• In March, we held our postponed Movie Night where hundreds of families enjoyed an obstacle course, face painting and of course a screening of Peter Rabbit 2.
• In May, our students enjoyed the opportunity to buy a small gift for Mum at our annual Mother’s Day Stall.
• In August, we were excited to welcome back our Carnival, which has been in lockdown since 2019.
• In September, the EHSS children were given the opportunity to buy a small gift at our annual Father’s Day Stall.
• On the 29^th of October we will be hosting a Halloween Dance for the students, with younger students in the afternoon and older students in the evening.

As you can see, we are a very active community-based P&C with lots of opportunity to get involved. We invite you to attend our P&C meetings and get involved in the community events we hold.

All the best,

Nicholas Whitlock (President)
