Working together to strengthen our school community
At Pinner Park, we know that children thrive when parents and school work closely together. Our new Parent Engagement Group (PEG) gives parents and carers a meaningful way to experience school life first-hand and share insights that help us continue to improve.
PEG is an open, inclusive and positive forum — not a decision-making body — and aims to bring together a diverse group of parents who want to deepen their understanding of the school and contribute to strong home-school relationships.
