All schools need a link between parents and the School Leadership Team, which in Catholic schools is generally called the Parents and Friends Association ("P & F"). We call our P&F the PFG (Parents and Friends Advisory Group) to remind us of the community we have been and what sort of organisation and community we aim to be. Whilst our school has grown, we strive to retain many of those qualities usually associated with a smaller school such as a strong inclusive community spirit.
The Parents and Friends Advisory Group (PFG) is the parent body within the St Andrew’s School community. Every parent who has a child enrolled at St Andrew's is a member of the PFG.
The PFG is a registered association and its office bearers are elected by the members. The constitution of the association and the office bearers for the current year are listed on the PFG page on the Parent Portal.
General meetings are held at 6:30pm on the first Wednesday of each month in school terms (only 2 meetings per term). Meetings are held in the Hall unless otherwise specified. Members and friends are welcome to attend meeting to contribute or to simply hear what's going on.

Fair Committee
This committee assists in the coordination of our annual
Fair. The Fair is the major fund-raising venture for the school during the course of the year. The Fair is traditionally held on the last Sunday in May. There will be no fair in 2026 due to the current building works.
