Pymble Parents Association (PPA) Events

We really enjoyed welcoming our new parents (and all Year 7 parents) on site today for our annual New Parents High Tea. Many thanks to the PPA for hosting the event, as well as the school executive members who were in attendance.

In the coming months we are looking forward to the Trivia Night on Saturday 3 June – a fun and popular parent event on the College calendar. This year’s theme is ‘Movie Stars’ which leaves plenty of possibilities. Pymble parents are well known for their flamboyant costumes, and we expect to see plenty of characters on the night, from Marvel to Cleopatra and beyond.

We also have a cultural culinary event in Term 2, this year celebrating the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival on Wednesday 21 June (second last day of term). The evening will feature traditional dishes such as zongzi, craft and children’s activities and a range of performances.

In 2024, we will be celebrating Diwali for our cultural event. We are excited to share a different cultural opportunity each year at which all students and their families are welcome.

Further details and booking links for both these whole-school events will be shared with the community in the coming weeks.
