About Marigold PAC
All parents/caregivers of students at our school are members of the PAC. You are welcome to attend and vote at our monthly meetings. Currently, our meetings are held the first Monday of the month at 7:00 p.m. virtually on Zoom or in the school library. PAC meetings are a great way to keep up to date on initiatives that are taking place at our school.
What does the PAC do?
-
Fundraise for capital purchases such as playgrounds (both playgrounds and the new GaGa pit were purchased by our PAC for more than $170 000)

Run events to help build community such as the Halloween Dance and Spring Fair and Board Game Cafe.

Organise staff appreciation on behalf of the school community
