Completed in 2024, the redevelopment of the Active Playground was a combined effort from the P&C, Department of Education, a government grant from Coogee MP - Dr Marjorie O'Neill, and the Coogee Care Centre. The P&C was able to allocate $250,000 to this project accumulated over several years of major fundraising efforts.

New air conditioning was purchased and installed for 21 spaces in time for the commencement of the 2024 school year. The P&C contributed $95,000 towards towards this project through monies raised from the Walkathon over the previous 3 years.

Additional resourcing of classrooms was provided via Class Wish Lists. The P&C contributed over $18,500 for this initiative in 2023.

Thanks to the focus on the toilet beautification project by the school, P&C and kids, we garnered the attention of the Department of Education who upgraded all the main toilet blocks. This upgrade has included new floor and wall tiling, new partitions, paint and more. This much needed refurbishment enabled the P&C to focus on elements to beautify the toilets (rather than needing to spend on functionality, cleanliness and safety).

From inefficient old appliances to a power and space saving walk-in freezer, watch the video to see the transformation of our Canteen! Thank you to our wonderful Canteen Manager Alison for all the research, planning and entrepreneurial motivation! This upgrade received a contribution of $31,500 was made by the P&C in 2019-2020.

Our dark and unworkable old space that looked more broom cupboard than shop was transformed during the 2019-2020 holidays. Thank you for the enormous volume of volunteer hours that were invested - from research and planning to painting, moving all the stock in and out not to mention the flat-packing - we are so very grateful. Approximately $8,000 was received from P&C funds for the purchase and installation of new shelving and storage space. Watch the video to see the transformation.

The kindergarten playground was landscaped and the play equipment upgraded with new and creative spaces over the course of 2018-2019 through a contribution of $96,000 from the CPS P&C.

Students loose a large amount of personal belongings every month, resulting in uneccessary waste and additional costs for parents. Now, when an item is lost, as long as it is labelled with the child’s name, students can pop it straight into their class bucket which helps the sorting process immensely.

Thank you to Elisha Curry for masterminding and executing this new system over the 2019-20 school holidays. It was also a relatively sustainable project, with all the horizontal shelves repurposed from the Uniform Shop!
