Meet Our People
St Patrick’s is shaped as much by the people who show up for it every day as by anything written down.
Teachers, support staff, our Board and our PTA all play a part in creating the kind of school where every tamaiti is known and cared for, and it’s worth putting faces to the names behind that.

PTA
The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) also fundraises for the school and welcomes new faces at its meetings, listed in the newsletter or on the front quad noticeboard. It’s a good way to meet other parents and learn more about the school with no obligation attached.
