Parent Engagement

Mt Maria College Petrie has a Parent Engagement Advisory Group (PEAG) that works in partnership with the College Leadership Team in our mission to support the provision of quality education and learning experiences for our children.

The PEAG has a strong Christian commitment and a vision to provide support to the school community in ways that engender in our children a sense of pride and belonging to this great school Community.

All Parents and Carers of children at our College are welcome to participate in parent engagement events throughout the year. The PEAG acts as a voice of the parent/carer community in planning and enacting events, programs and building works. A levy per family is paid through the School Fees and is passed on to the PEAG for allocation, by member consensus, for use in worthwhile contributions to projects benefiting every child at the sc​hool.

Of course, finding the time to get involved in school activities is not always easy, and we understand that many parents who would like to help out may be unable to make a regular commitment. The main thing to remember is that every little bit helps. Even if you only have the time to attend an occasional parent engagement event, your involvement is important and greatly appreciated. After all, the small contributions of many parents add up and help us achieve some really worthwhile benefits for our students and our school. ​
