St Margaret's is blessed with a large body of helpful supporters who assist the school in many ways. Working within these groups offers enjoyable and meaningful opportunities for parents to support their daughters' interests and to meet other parents and staff.
The P&F Association is a vibrant, active and committed group of parents who support school events and take carriage of key signature events throughout the year, which serve to bring the community together while also helping to raise funds for the school.
All profits from these events are used for the benefit of the students and the school. Several opportunities for sponsorship are available on an annual basis through these events and we welcome your enquiry at P&F@stmargarets.qld.edu.au.

Parent Ambassadors
In addition to our P&F Association, we are fortunate to also have parents who volunteer as Parent Ambassadors. These Ambassadors liaise with other parents to support the students, Teachers and the Heads of Year.
What does a Parent Ambassador do?
• Meet and support new parents of the School
• Develop a sense of community within the year level
• Help support P&F and School functions and fundraising events
• Encourage parents to attend P&F General Meetings and events
• Be a point of contact for parents who have queries about school activities and events
If you are interested in being a Parent Ambassador, please contact us.
