Parents Voice in Government School Education

Marlborough PS Parents Association

We noticed the above photo in a newsletter from Marlborough Primary School in Heathmont. It’s from their Colour Fun Run, organised by the Parents Association. The caption reads, “How awesome was the Colour Fun Run! It was amazing to see the whole school community get involved and the smiling faces of all the students, parents and teachers having such a wonderful time.”
The Parents Association runs 15-20 social and fundraising events per year, raising $15,000 – $20,000 for the school. President Erin Vistarini says, “Marlborough is a close-knit school, and the Parents Association is an integral part of the school community. We provide opportunities for parents and caregivers to meet other families, and the chance to become involved in school life and the education of our children.”
Congratulations to Erin and the Parents Association on the Colour Fun Run and all the other great work they do to support the school and their children’s education!
