Catholic School Parents SA (CSPSA) has recently held two engaging and informative events for parents.
There are multiple ways for schools to connect with CSPSA and stay up-to-date with their events and resources:
- Your school can follow the Catholic School Parents SA Facebook page and consider sharing a CSPSA post from time to time.
- If you haven’t done so already – please ensure that there is a link to CSPSA from your school’s website.
- Keep your eye on CSPSA events to share and promote to parents.
- Check if your school has a Parent Representative registered with CSPSA to be the contact person to represent the parents in your school. Principals can nominate a representative through the CSPSA website.
