P&C Association

Our P&C is a voluntary organisation that provides an opportunity for parents to have a voice and participate in the education of their children. With the support of many volunteers from the school community, the P&C coordinates events and services for our children, including the school canteen and uniform shop. Funds raised by the P&C contribute to the funding of programs and facilities within the school, which makes for a better educational experience for our kids.

The P&C holds its AGM in Term 1 each year, and subsequent general meetings each term thereafter.

New faces are always welcome and any contribution that can be made will be greatly appreciated! To find out more, visit the P&C on Facebook or email P&C president Danielle Power at mhpspc.president@gmail.com.

Reconciliation Action Committee

Welcome, this is Wadjak Noongar country

Mount Hawthorn Primary School acknowledges the Wadjak Noongar people as the past and present traditional custodians of this land on which our school is built, and we respectfully recognise their contribution and ongoing cultural connection to this region. We celebrate the significant contributions Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples make to our shared country through their knowledge, resilience and bravery.

Our school has a progressive Reconciliation Action Committee, which is committed to reconciliation through deeply connecting with the cultures, languages, practices and stories of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, families and peoples within the wider community.

To find out more about our Reconciliation Action Committee, contact Bree Rampal, at Bree.Rampal@education.wa.edu.au
