Canteen is open five days a week, our canteen serves up a variety of healthy and delicious food options. We’re committed to sustainability, replacing single-use plastics with recyclable and compostable packaging. Every purchase supports our school community!
Online Canteen Orders: https://www.flexischools.com.au/

The canteen is a fun place to volunteer, whether it be one day a week, once a fortnight, once a month, once a term or even once a year. We believe it is the perfect place to meet new people and make new friends. The children are always delighted to see a familiar face behind the counter!
The Band is a self-funded sub-committee of the Wakehurst Parents and Citizens Association and managed by a team of parent volunteers. To operate well and share workload the committee must consist of at least 3-4 people. New volunteers are always welcome.
You can also support our band by making an online donation: 🎷 WPS Band Donation
All the funds raised go towards developing the band programs and upgrading their equipment and instruments. We are very grateful for any donation - big or small. Thank you for your support!
Each year the Fundraising & Events team organises a wide range of fun activities for children and parents to get involved in. These events are crucial for raising funds to support a variety of school projects, programs and equipment.
From 2025 we kindly ask each Year Group to organise one fundraising event to help fund these essential resources that aren’t covered by government funding. Our fundraising goal for 2025 is $40k. Please refer to the fundraising & events calendar below, to find your Year Group’s assigned event and details on what we are fundraising for. 💰 Fundraising & Events 2025
There are many ways to get involved:
Volunteering your time in person at a P&C event or fundraiser - this could be helping to plan the event, donating goods for sale, helping to set up on the day, cooking on the barbecue, or packing up after an event. Volunteering your services in the preparation of a P&C event or fundraiser. Or contribute your skill (painting, creating, catering, organising, marketing, grant writing or other). Or just Come along to the P&C meetings to share fundraising ideas. If you would like to join the P&C sub-committee or enquire as to the best way you can help, please email fundraising@wpspandc.com.
We understand that not everyone can contribute their time to a P&C. If you prefer to make a financial commitment to the school, please follow the link:

The Grounds Committee is a sub-committee of the P&C which works in consultation with staff and parents to maintain the school grounds.
Working Bees
The Grounds Committee organises working bees several times a year to help keep the school grounds in top shape. Working bees not only reduce overall maintenance costs to the school, they also provide a great opportunity to meet other families.
All families are encouraged to attend at least one working bee each year.
Tracey Albon Community Garden
The school also has a vegetable garden dedicated to Ms.Tracey Albon’s memory - a beloved teacher and cherished member of our community. The garden is maintained regularly by students, parents and community volunteers once a month on a Friday afternoon for one hour starting at 2pm.
If you would like to do some occasional light gardening, please sign up.
Attending a P&C meeting is a great way to find out what is coming up at the school and everyone is welcome to join.
The P&C gets together every 3rd and 8th week of the school term for a meeting.
The meetings start at 7pm and are held: every 3rd week - via ZOOM, and every 8th week - in the school staffroom.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME !
You do not have to join the committee or hold an official position. JUST COME ALONG to hear about, or contribute to, what is happening at our school. Being a member keeps you informed, gives you a voice, and gives you an opportunity to help with even just the one thing if you CHOOSE.
We would love to see YOU there and welcome new faces!
To join the P&C or if you have any questions please email: secretary@wpspandc.com.
