CSPWA Photo Competition Winners

To celebrate the launch of the new P&F Terms of Reference, Catholic School Parents Western Australia ran our first ever photo competition for P&Fs to win 1 of 3 great prizes. We had close to 200 photos submitted, which was fantastic! Thank you to all of the schools who took the time to send in their entries, we can now use these genuine photos of the parents who support us and our schools on our website and brochures in the future.

The 3 prizes on offer were:

1st Prize - $1,500 donation back to your school P&F

2nd Prize - A school P&F banner, thanks to Snap Northbridge

3rd Prize - $500 of school resources for your school library

And the winners are:

1st Prize: St Joseph’s Moora

Ensuring that their parents were checked in on, last year the P&F organised a little treat pack for R U Ok? Day. P&F volunteers handed them out at drop off and made sure they included their teachers in the deliveries.

Judges feedback: I absolutely loved the R U Ok bags, with the personal note and the fact the P&F personally handed them out to the school community. I was also impressed with their note attached explaining what they do, highlighting how the P&F actively engages with the wider community not just the school.

2nd prize: Notre Dame Catholic Primary School

The photo submitted is of the annual Dad's and Kids' Campout, organised fully by Dads with some funding from the P&F. The Dad’s volunteer to cook and serve dinner to everyone, then breakfast the next day.

Judges feedback: This school was chosen for the sheer number of events that the P&F organise, and that their focus is building the school community.

3rd Prize: Sacred Heart Mundaring

This is a photo of some of the school’s lovely dads helping out at the Mother’s Day stall.

Judges feedback: I loved the Dads also getting involved (including dressing up) to assist the P&F in the Mother’s day stall.

The judges also wanted to make a special mention of Mary’s Mount Primary School for going out to wider community events and promoting your school, and St John’s Rangeway for going that extra mile at easter inviting the Easter Bunny- I bet the children really loved that.

Thank you to all the schools who sent in photos highlighting the great job our P&Fs are doing for our schools and surrounding communities. Well done and keep up the great work.
