Contact: To assist with communication we encourage parents to communicate with the Council via this dedicated link:  gonzagaparentscouncil@gmail.com.  All communication is reviewed by the Council at each meeting.​

 

Objectives:

The objectives of the Parents' Association, and therefore the objectives of the Council, as outlined in the Constitution of the Parents Association are:

• To become aware of and embody the ethos of the College and its Ignatian influence so that all can advance in a spirit of co-operation and mutual support to the benefit of parents, College and pupils.

• To support and initiate activities which advance the academic, physical, social and spiritual development of all pupils in accordance with the Mission Statement and overall objectives of Gonzaga College as approved by the Board of Management.

• To provide opportunity for discussion, information and consultation about matters of common interest to parents, teachers and pupils of Gonzaga College.

• To submit, as it deems fit, for consideration by the Board from time to time matters arising from such discussion, information and consultation.

• To consider matters of educational interest; provided always that no reference shall be made whether by name or otherwise to any specific student, parent, guardian, member of staff or member of the Board.

 

Events: 

Each year the Council endeavours to host parents’ evenings to cover a range of diverse topics that are of interest to the parent group and relevant to the support of our sons.  These are advised via Compass.
