TRINITYHOUSE PARENTS ASSOCIATION Trinityhouse Randpark Ridge has a Parents Association which has been active for the last 12 years. It was established to facilitate all the schools on the campus to essentially provide the “nice to haves” without having to increase school fees. When ADVTECH acquired the school the same principles essentially applied as in any business you have capex and budgeting constraints Contrary to popular belief, the association is a small body of parents who meet once a term with the Headmasters of all 3 schools to discuss events happening at the school as well as plan fundraisers and enhancements to the school. We also try to create an environment and organize fundraisers which further enhances the Christian ethos at our school. As children leave the High School, so do those parents, resulting in a body that certainly needs not only “new blood”, but more feet to accomplish the tasks. All monies raised immediately return to the school to make it the awesome place it is. Many parents are not aware of what the association has contributed so the list is attached below to indicate- we have achieved so much with so few parents, so imagine what we can do if each parent contributes one hour a year. For those of you who have visited other private schools, there is normally a body of parents which set out teas and snacks at functions, we hope the association can assist with this in future to show our hospitality as a school.
