PAC INFORMATION

The MLA PAC is both schools parent organization. Typically they meet on a Tuesday evening - usually the first or second Tuesday in the month - at 7pm. Occasionally the meeting is at 6pm. The main school office will email out PAC meeting reminders and times to the parents about 1 week before the meeting date. The annex school contact will post information on the PAC Board at that school and the main school information will be posted on our parent board in the front hall.

ALL parents are welcome to come to PAC meetings. The principal attends to receive updates and information from the PAC and see how the school can support the PAC. The PAC itself chooses its meeting dates and events and fundraisers. The PAC applies for Gaming money and GST rebates and has accounts which are monitored and accounted for by the treasurer ( a banker herself) to the parent group.

The key PAC contacts are as follows:

  • President: Iris Henderson
  • Treasurer: Jackie Ross
  • Secretary: Helen Newton
  • Annex Contact: Gillian Schoenefuhs
Please note that Iris and Jackie are also on our Board of Directors.
