Community involvement
At Bangalow Public School, we value the strong partnerships we share with our families and community. We believe that parents and carers are a vital part of our school, and your involvement plays an important role in enriching the learning environment for all students.
Stay connected through our parent communications app, School Bytes, and get involved by joining our Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) or volunteering your time at the school. Whether it’s helping out at events, supporting classroom activities, or contributing your ideas through the P&C, your support makes a real difference.
Together, we’re building a stronger school community.
