ABOUT US
At the Denistone East Public School (DEPS) P&C Association our purpose is threefold: to represent parents’ voices in working towards common goals with the school; to organise volunteers for school services; and to raise funds for the educational benefit and enjoyment of the school community across the school’s target areas of Literacy, Numeracy, Technology and Grounds.
Raising funds the fun way
We host a number of social and fundraising events throughout the year, including Mother's Day and Father's Day breakfasts, Mufti days, Chocolate Drive, School Disco and Moonlight Markets. We make fundraising fun raising – with the emphasis on celebrating as a community.
