The Chatswood High School Parent Network

The Parent Network is a great way to get to know and keep in contact with families in your child's year. Each year has a small group of Parent Network coordinators who keep the Parent Network list up to date and send emails to the group with relevant information.

The purpose of the parent network is to

provide opportunities for parents and carers to get to know other families in their child's year group through social events - morning teas, picnics, BBQs, dinners, bowling days...
assist in asking for helpers at school activities via email. Each year group is responsible for a specific function during the year - see the yearly events.
provide support to the Year Advisor or Deputy Principal if required
provide help with translations for speakers of Cantonese, Mandarin and Japanese - CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse)
provide a contact list to parents to enable them to contact others in their year group when necessary.

PLEASE NOTE: the contact list is NOT to be used as a medium for advertising. Please treat it as private and confidential and be mindful about issues such as junk email and viruses.

It is often important to new parents, particularly when they are from interstate or overseas, to be able to make contact with someone who understands our school system. We invite you to contact one of the Parent Network Coordinators for your child/children's year. You can also ask them to add you to your parent network email list.
