Parents' & Friends' Association

2022 has been a year of reconnecting within our KRB Community. After two years of Covid restrictions preventing many of our usual P&F activities, once it was deemed safe to do so, our P&F Year Representatives very quickly went to work to organise activities to reconnect with their year groups and to introduce the many new families to the welcoming nature of our KRB community.

A huge thank you to all our P&F Year Representatives who have put in a tremendous effort to include and welcome all members of the KRB parent and carer community.

At the 2021 AGM, the Boarder Parent Representative Group was established as a standing subcommittee of the Parents’ & Friends’ Association. The establishment of this group provides channels for greater communication within the boarding community and with the Parents’ & Friends’ Association. One of the group’s first events organised was the City/Country Weekend held in Tamworth on a most gorgeous day in April. This event was very well attended by current parents, alumnae and members of the KRB Leadership Team who all enjoyed the country hospitality.

Thankfully we have been able to continue with our volunteers in Café 135. As well, many helpers have been called on for the various school activities around Mothers' and Fathers' Day and Sacred Heart Day. Thank you to all who have volunteered and to KRB for allowing our parent volunteers to be part of these special occasions.

Our online raffles for both Mothers' and Fathers' Day were a huge success and we thank all the KRB families who so generously donated prizes and all who purchased tickets. With our limited ability to fundraise over the last couple of years, these raffles have been so important.

My thanks to the P&F Executive Committee for their wonderful support for me and for their commitment to all our activities. Thanks to Jane James, Vice - President, Josephine Giaouris, Secretary, Adriana Cecere, Assistant Secretary, Charlotte Norfolk, Treasurer, Britt Fletcher, Assistant Treasurer and Leisl White, Boarding Representative. We have been a great team and I have greatly appreciated working with you. I also express my sincere gratitude to Maureen Ryan, Principal, for her ongoing support for me and for all we as a P&F have done over the past two years. I wish Maureen every success in her new ventures.
