Early Learning - Information for P&Cs

Early Learning Communication Content Planner 2024-25 for P&Cs/PPAs: plan the year's communications with this pre-filled EL content planner 

Preschool and kindy parents are often highly engaged with their child's education or are seeking ways to get involved. Planning regular, welcoming P&C communications and invitations for early years parents and carers helps encourage families to engage and participate. 

Parent associations can play a key role in helping early years parents feel welcome in their school community. Parents, carers, and relocated families, can find their initial contact with the school community especially daunting. P&Cs provide a friendly face for families to connect with other families in the cohort. 

Council encourages P&Cs/PPAs to promote a role for early years parents on the committee to be a voice for parents of the junior cohorts. Download the 'EL parent rep' role description template for ideas on defining this role. 2023 06 Reference Guide Preschool Parents
