Parents and carers are vital members of our school community, especially as a partner in your child’s learning and engagement at Wangala Primary School.  We promote a range of opportunities for parents and carers to be involved with our school community where they feel most comfortable contributing.

Wangala Primary School encourages parents and carers to be involved in the following opportunities:

• School Council
• Our Kitchen Garden Program
• Excursions
• Sporting coaches
• Working Bees
• Fundraising
• Classroom Helpers
• Special whole school events
• Incursions
• Social events
• Breakfast Club

Wangala Primary School offers a ‘Classroom and Program Helpers’ course for all parents and carers who wish to assist in our classrooms.  This session is a requirement for all parents and carers who wish to help and covers the expectations on how you would help students in our classrooms.  Privacy and confidentiality are of the utmost importance for all helpers.  It is also a requirement that all helpers hold a current ‘Working With Children Card’ (WWCC)

Compass

Wangala Primary School uses the Compass platform to officially communicate with parents and carers.  You will be provided with Compass logon information and will be expected to log any absences through this system as well as fill out permission forms and make payments for excursions and events.  Reports and individual notifications will be communicated to you via Compass, as will Wangala Primary School updates and information. 

The Compass platform can be accessed via desktop or utilising the Compass app.  For further information about the Compass platform, contact us.
