Community helping hands
What we do
A special welcome to our newest Bletchington parents—we trust your time in the Bletchington school community will be a rewarding one. Whether you are new or have been around a while we hope that this page of the school website inspires you to get involved. On it, you'll find information about our calendar of events, the clothing pool and major projects.
The P&C at Bletchington Public School seeks to promote both the interests of the school and close co-operation between parents and staff. As well as advocating for new school initiatives, the P&C supports existing school activities and programs. Our purpose is to:
- support a positive learning and social environment for all students and their families
- serve as a forum for parents to discuss what is happening and what is planned for the school
- raise funds to provide services, facilities and equipment to benefit students' academic and extra curricula education
- provide support and advice to the Principal and school Executive team
- represent parents on school committees and in the development of school policy
To find out more about the P&C, please visit the P&C Federation website.
We meet in the school administration building on the 4th Tuesday of every month during the term. We'd love to see you there! For further information visit https://www.facebook.com/groups/BletchingtonPSPandC or email bletchingtonpandc@gmail.com
Our executive committee for 2025 are:

Secretary:
