PTFA

The PTFA is a multi-talented, fun-loving group of Carmel parents who work with a dual aim in mind.  While there is always the drive to raise funds to support the school in providing the additional resources for the students of Carmel College, there is also a strong commitment to building community – whether between the students, the parents or with our Milford neighbours.  Each event hosted by the PTFA is carefully curated with both these aims in mind.  There are also social events for the members of the PTFA to kick back and enjoy!  The PTFA has contributed to adding value to the school by providing an annual donation to the college, covering Scholarships, Dux Awards, Spirit of NZ sponsorship, sports uniforms, library books and the Student Welfare fund.

What events does the PTFA organise?

Events are organised throughout the year and many of them are focused on bringing the school community together in a social setting.  Currently these events include:

  • Student Quiz Night – 28 March
  • The Female Circle Breakfast – 16 May
  • Beats By Bingo (parents only) – 15 August
  • Christmas Event – 15 November

And we welcome new ideas and initiatives that you may have.

Events held in the past have been:

  • ArtFusions
  • Beats for Bingo
  • Golf Day
  • Mastercook Curry Night

Come join us!

The PTFA are always looking for parents to join the committee. Any parents willing to give their time and energy are more than welcome and it is a great way to become involved in the school community.  We meet monthly, usually on the second Tuesday of the month, and meetings last approximately 1.5 hours.

We don’t expect members to be involved in all of the activities of the PTFA and, as such, organise subcommittees for each event being organised.  You may choose to be on the full committee or part of a subcommittee.  Maybe you are unable to commit to the organisation of an event but are willing to help out at the event itself.  In all of these cases, we’d love to hear from you!
