PGSS Eagle Centre Parent Group

The Eagle Center at PGSS is a cultural hub for the school, we acknowledge the importance of education. We also acknowledge the important role parents play in our students lives.

We would like to celebrate and assist parents in that role.

If you are interested in joining the Eagle Center Parent Group, please contact one of our Indigenous Education Workers, via email or by phone.

We plan on at least 1 meeting a month to start.

Let's gather and talk about all the possibilities
