Who We Are & What We Do
The Burpengary Meadows State School (BMSS) Parents & Citizens' (P&C) Association is a not-for-profit organisation that works in a collaborative partnership with our school and the community in shaping the school experience for all students.
BMSS P&C is a group of volunteers, governed by an elected Executive Committee who employ a small number of staff to operate the Tuckshop and Uniform Shop to support the BMSS vision of 'One Team, Every Student Succeeding' with both provision of services and financial contributions.
Our school thrives when parents, caregivers and community members lend a hand, bringing new ideas, enthusiasm and support to make our school the best it can be. From fundraising and school events to supporting educational initiatives, the P&C makes a real difference in our school.
Our mission is to be a genuine partner to Burpengary Meadows State School and ensure our support for the school contributes to and benefits their goals and vision
One Team, Every Student, Succeeding.
From major projects such as updating educational resources, playground upgrades, classroom air conditioners, and stage, sound, & lighting upgrades for the hall, to ongoing annual financial support of events and activities, BMSS P&C have helped to provide additional resources and build a thriving, positive school community. This could not be achieved without the support of volunteers to achieve our fundraising goals.
If you are interested in volunteering and would like to discuss how you can help, please contact the P&C via email pandc@burpengarymeadowsss.eq.edu.au or speak with us face to face at a meeting or the tuckshop. Whether it is occasionally helping in the tuckshop, supporting a particular fundraising event, sourcing donations, or your own ideas, we would love to hear from you. Further information regarding formal requirements for volunteers is available on the Volunteering page.
