At Doonside PS our Parents and Citizens (P&C) Association plays a vital role in supporting our school community. The P&C is a welcoming and active group of parents, carers, and staff who work together to enhance the educational experience for all students.

Through fundraising events, community gatherings, and collaborative projects, our P&C helps provide valuable resources, improve school facilities, and create a positive environment where every student can thrive.
