From the P&C President
I feel incredibly proud and grateful to write to you on behalf of myself as a father to a kid in year 2 and the P&C to celebrate what makes our school so special: the strength and heart of our community.
Runcorn State School isn't just a place of learning—it's a thriving, diverse hub where people from all walks of life come together with a shared purpose: to provide every child with the opportunity to grow, thrive, and succeed. The beauty of our community lies in its diversity. We are fortunate to have families from so many cultural backgrounds, bringing with them unique perspectives, traditions, and talents. This rich tapestry not only enriches our children's education but fosters an environment where understanding and inclusion are at the forefront of everything we do.
Time and time again, I've witnessed our community step up in remarkable ways. Whether it's rallying behind fundraising efforts, volunteering at events, or simply showing up to cheer for our children at their performances, the collective spirit here is nothing short of inspiring. This year's events—big and small—are a testament to the strength of our shared commitment.
The teachers and staff, they are the pillars of this community, nurturing not just academic excellence but also kindness, resilience, and respect in our children. Their dedication sets the tone for the warm, welcoming environment that makes our school so special.
The parents and carers, their support and involvement make a world of difference. Whether been behind the BBQ, helping with a gold coin collection, or lending time and energy at events, these super people are the backbone of what we achieve together.
And, of course, to our students: they are the heart of this community. Watching them grow into confident, capable individuals is the greatest reward, and their enthusiasm brings us all closer together.
As the P&C President, I am deeply honoured to serve this remarkable community. Every event, every conversation, and every connection reminds me of just how lucky we are to be part of something so special.
Thank you all for being part of the incredible fabric that makes Runcorn State School so much more than just a school. It's a community of collaboration, connection, and community spirit.
Warm regards,
Sandy Lokas
