CURRENT FAMILIES

Community

Community is vitally important to us. We are a College community whose mission is not only to educate children, but to also provide a place for parents, family and local community members to engage, to learn, to receive support.

To help us achieve this, we have a Community Engagement Co-ordinator on staff. His name is Suleyman Kaya and his email is s.kaya@wisdom.qld.edu.au

Suleyman’s role is to build connections between College and home, between staff and parents, and across all of the different faith, ethnic and cultural backgrounds within our College community.

To further strengthen our community we do the following:

Partner with allied health providers and practitioners to deliver health services
Create and deliver a vibrant Pastoral Care program that includes mentoring and life skills
Provide after school Arabic and Islamic studies
Ensure opportunities for our students to provide services across our broader community through our student service learning program

Parents and Friends

The P&F is an integral part of our college and provides a formal structure and support network for parents to participate in activities and decision-making processes, and to work for the benefit of the College and their children.

Wisdom College values home, school and community partnerships in order to provide the best for our children and the P&F play a key role in this goal.

OUR PURPOSE

The P&F focus is on community building, supporting school events and fundraising. They aim to develop strong partnerships with the wider community and ensure that our students benefit from these community networks, skills, resources and expertise.

The aims of the P&F group are to:

Provide support, information and an avenue for involvement for parents, guardians and caregivers in their children’s education and the broader school community
Encourage collaboration between parents, guardians, caregivers and school staff
Support and nurture the vision and mission of the College.

In addition to this, the P&F objectives are to:

Build community
Facilitate collaboration
Enable social engagement
Perform community service
