Tewantin State School P&CThe Tewantin State School Parents and Citizens Association plays an active and essential role in our school community. The P&C is dedicated to promoting the interests of the school and providing students with the best possible environment to learn and thrive.
The P&C Association is a group of volunteers, working together to improve and enhance the facilities and opportunities available at the school for all students. By participating in the P&C, you are supporting the school community and becoming a member of the P&C gives you an opportunity to share in the school's decision-making process and help shape the school's future. Your contribution can be as large or as small as you can manage.
At Tewantin State School we have been fortunate to have a very pro-active and committed P&C Association over many years. This has only been possible with the continuing support and participation of our students, their families, the local community and a collaborative partnership with our whole school team.
