Parents & Friends Association'

The Parents’ and Friends’ Association commenced at Dromana College in 2004 under the direction and leadership of the Principal. It was formed to provide a forum for communication between families and the school and for the sharing of information about aspects of fund raising events and school activities that are of interest to our parent body. 

The Parents’ and Friends’ Association meet on the first Wednesday of the month in the staffroom at the college to promote the welfare of Dromana College and to discuss a variety of fundraising activities such as social occasions eg trivia nights, winery tours, Peninsula Teenage Fashion Expo and other activities which enhance the sense of community in the school and help to improve communication.  All welcome.
