Welcome to the Griffin State School P&C

Griffin State School Parents and Citizens association is a voluntary, non-profit organisation affiliated directly with the school.

What do we do?

P&C is short for Parents and Citizens. We collectively raise money for our school through events, fundraising, grants and our businesses.

The P & C operates three business within the school. They are the Uniform Shop, Lighthouse Café/Tuckshop and Coffee@Monty's.

We also run many of the school fundraising events such as Disco's, Mother's & Father's Day stall/events, Read a thon, Colour Run, Griffin Community Santa Run, Food and Bake stalls and lots more.

All profits are used to develop and enable projects at Griffin State School.
