Ways to support

Here's what the P&C is raising funds for now and what's coming up. Every ticket and donation goes straight back to our students.

About Our P&C

The Barrenjoey High School Parents & Citizens Association is a dedicated community organisation working to enhance the educational experience of our students. We believe that by bringing together parents, citizens, students and teaching staff, we can create a more positive and enriching high school journey for every child.

Our Objectives

(a) Promote the interests of the school by bringing parents, citizens, students and teaching staff into close co-operation, and

(b) Assist in providing facilities and equipment for the school and in promoting the recreation and welfare of the students at the school.

Our Achievements

The P&C raises funds to directly benefit our students and school community. Here are some of the initiatives we've made possible.

🎨

Barrenjoey Artwalk

Our annual community art fundraiser

A P&C community initiative run entirely by volunteers. In 2025, 31 artists and 34 local retailers turned Avalon Village into an open-air gallery, with more than $26k in art sales — up from $10k+ in its first year.

Cooler classrooms
