Aquinas College Parent Connect (AQPC) is the official Parents and Friends Advisory Group of the College, formally recognised by Catholic education authorities. AQPC provides a structured and inclusive forum through which parents and carers can engage meaningfully with the life of the school. Guided by its Charter, AQPC acts as a bridge between families and the College, supporting open communication, collaboration and shared responsibility for student learning and wellbeing. Grounded in the Catholic ethos, AQPC affirms parents as the first educators of their children and promotes partnership with school leadership and staff to foster a strong, faith‑centred community.

The importance of AQPC lies in its role in strengthening community connection and ensuring parent voice is heard in a transparent and purposeful way. 

Through regular meetings and collaboration with the Principal, AQPC supports initiatives that enhance the spiritual, academic, social and physical development of students, while operating within clear governance and accountability structures. 

It provides opportunities for parents and carers to contribute ideas, support school priorities and participate in the broader Catholic education community at local, diocesan and state levels. 

Ultimately, AQPC helps build a welcoming, cooperative and inclusive culture where families and the College work together in the best interests of every student​
