Our Parent Community
Parents are an important part of the Birralee community. We value the strong partnership between home and school and encourage parents to take an active part in school life.
Our international parent community brings together families from many different countries and backgrounds, helping to create a welcoming and supportive environment for everyone.
Parents' Committee
The Parents’ Committee plays an important role in building and strengthening our school community. It provides a link between parents and the school and helps organise social activities and events throughout the year.
Activities include the Christmas Fair, Book Fair, Birralee International Day, Teacher Appreciation Lunch, Halloween celebrations, May 17th Spring Fair and Summer Picnic.
Parents are always welcome to get in touch with the Chair with questions, suggestions or ideas for our parent community.

Entry and Exit Points
Parents are invited into the classroom at different points during the year to take part in and celebrate their child’s
