Parent Information

P&C

The Bull Creek P&C consists of a great group of people who work together and aim to provide the best possible education opportunities and facilities for all children attending our school.

This involves providing financial assistance for the purchase of equipment and resources and the improvement of facilities. This is made possible by establishing a support network of parents, grandparents, relatives and friends to create a school filled with a sense of community and belonging for all families.

To achieve these objectives there are many opportunities for everyone to be involved in a small or large way. Any support is greatly appreciated.

Everyone is welcome to attend P&C meetings throughout the year. Meetings are held in the school library on a Tuesday evening in weeks 3 and 7 of every term.

Our Main purpose is to fund raise to be able to supply the school with educational items or facilities that fall outside the parameters of the school budget. This is becoming increasingly important due to the recent education cuts.

We are always happy to see new faces and are a relaxed friendly group. There are plenty of laughs to be had and there’s an added bonus of establishing friendships along the way! We hope to see you at the next meeting.

P&C Members

Xuan Goode

President

I grew up in Bull Creek and after moving away as a young adult, I later returned to raise my two children in the same community that helped to shape my values. I went to my first P&C meeting in 2023 when my eldest child was in Pre-Primary and it was clear how much of a positive impact the P&C made on our school community.

Work wise I’m a Clinical Pharmacist specialising in Cancer Services which is both humbling and rewarding. I enjoy cake making and decorating, camping, Pilates and nights out. You’ll probably see me around Bull Creek walking my goofy, not-so-mini, mini-groodle Waffles.

I’m honoured represent our P&C as president and I am looking forward to working with our wonderful educators, parents and community members. Please feel free to reach out should you have any queries about the P&C and what we do.

Rose Ariffin

Vice-President, Canteen Supervisor and Co-Treasurer

Hi. I’m Rose. I am a Sustainability Manager by profession and the VP, Canteen Supervisor and Co-Treasurer of our school’s P&C. I am Malaysian, and my husband is from Queensland, but we fell in love with Perth and decided to call it home.

We chose Bull Creek partly for the amazing reputation the school has, and the support my two boys have received from the school convinced me we made the right choice.

Though I work full time I take some time off every week to volunteer at the school Canteen. There is much to be said about the satisfaction I get from seeing my two boys’ happy faces when they see me at the canteen.
I highly recommend everyone to volunteer and experience the joys of giving while being part of a lovely community.

Garry Mullings

Co-Treasurer and Co-Dads Group Coordinator

Greetings… We moved to sunny Perth in January 2025 from a small rainy country in the Northern Hemisphere called England. My wife who works with horses landed a role at Murdoch Uni and I followed her along with our 2 kids in Years 2 and 4, and our dog Floki. As this was a new beginning, I wanted to put myself out there and get involved whenever possible. Being part of Bull Creek P&C has allowed me to pay a little something forward to the community whilst meeting some really awesome people along the way.

Lydia U

Co-Treasurer

Our family has been a part of Bull Creek PS since 2019. I started volunteering for the P&C when both my kids began attending school full time.
Before the kids came along, I was working in retail banking. It then felt natural to help out the school as an assistant treasurer. I have been volunteering for the past 5 years and it has been a pleasure to have this opportunity to give back to the school and community.

 

Cecilia Xia

Secretary

I moved to Perth from China almost 20 years ago and have loved calling this city home ever since. This year my twin boys started Year 2 at Bull Creek Primary School and I was immediately struck by how welcoming and engaged the school community is — it made joining the P&C an easy decision.
By day I work in programming, planning and analysis, spending a lot of time making sense of data and turning it into something useful. Volunteering as Secretary felt like a natural way to put those organisational skills to work for something much closer to my heart.

Outside of work and school runs you’ll find me practising yoga or taiji, listening to classical music, buried in a good book, or planning the next family adventure. I’m looking forward to getting to know more families at Bull Creek and contributing to such a wonderful school community.

Lisa Millar

Digital Creator, Uniforms and Be You Committee Representative
We are relatively new to Bull Creek after moving here in 2021. I feel really lucky to have found such a wonderful area with its many parks, restaurants and friendly residents.
I work as a Registered Nurse and I really enjoy what I do. I also have a background in Environmental Science. I love that Bull Creek Primary has some fantastic initiatives aimed at health, fitness and environmental sustainability. I am looking forward to contributing to these programs in the years to come.
I joined the P&C when my youngest was in kindergarten. I have found it’s a great way to meet other parents at the school and have a say in the decisions that affect our kids. I manage the Uniform Shop and the School’s social media account. I also enjoy helping out on the Events Committee and have run the Quiz Night and the school’s 50th Anniversary and Fete in October.

Cindy Ho

Events Coordinator
Hi everyone — I’m Cindy. 2025 was our first year in Perth and the P&C community has been wonderfully welcoming. You may have seen me at the 50th Fete on the Blender Bike 🚲 — what a fun day with so many amazing kids, parents and alumni! 🎉

I’m an Interior Designer who loves travel ✈️, baking 🧁 and crafting ✂️, and I’m always happy to chat design. Our events are shaped by what the parents want: each one is led by a parent or carer with plenty of support from the community 🤝. If you’ve ever thought about helping out but worried about the time, most roles can be shared or short-term — every little bit helps ⏱️❤️.

Want to start or lead an event, or try something new at BCPS? Please get in touch — I’d love to make it happen with you 📩✨.

Anuja Das

Canteen Manager

When our family moved to Australia four years ago, we chose Bull Creek as our new home largely because of its proximity to one of the finest primary schools in the southern suburbs. Our elder son, Advik, began his journey at Bull Creek Primary School that same year (2022), and his younger brother, Nirvik, joined kindy two year later.

In those early days—when we were navigating the uncertainty and emotional weight of rebuilding our lives in a new country—the school community embraced us. Their support helped us settle in, feel grounded, and find our sense of belonging. I could never have imagined then that, just two years later, I would proudly join the P&C and take on the responsibility of managing the school canteen.

As a trained baker and mother of two, running the canteen has felt both natural and deeply fulfilling. The work can be demanding, but we are lifted every day by the dedication of our staff and volunteers—and by the joy on the faces of our little “customers.” Their enthusiasm is our daily reward, and it’s what makes this role not just meaningful, but truly special.

Ana Haynes

Book Club Manager

Our family joined Bull Creek Primary School in 2019 when my eldest started kindergarten. Now he is in Year 6 and my daughters are in Year 3 and we were all absorbed into the welcoming Bull Creek Primary School community right from the start.

I joined the Book Club in 2022 as it seemed like a fun way to help out around the school and my own children loved getting book orders. I took over the running of book club towards the end of 2023 and it’s always wonderful seeing how excited the children get when they see their books have arrived, or how so many children have their nose in a book on their way home at the end of the day. It’s such a privilege to be part of cementing a love of reading in our kids.

Lee Finsterwald

Fit Club Coordinator

Our family moved to Bull Creek from Zurich, Switzerland, in January 2019.
We have 3 Children in years 5, 3 and 1 at Bull Creek Primary School.
I currently run the kids Fit Club every Thursday morning before school starts and I help out in the sports department where needed! I have found the school community to be very friendly and open and our children have made some wonderful friends!

I look forward to the year ahead and will most likely see you all on the sports field throughout the year. I am looking forward to contributing and supporting the P&C and school where I can!

Galen Campbell

Your Move Champion

I moved from Canada to Australia in Oct 2022 with my partner, Rose, and two children, Dietrich and Alaina. Rose researched neighbourhoods in Perth and very quickly zeroed in on Bull Creek for our first rental. We were extremely pleased with how welcoming and supportive Bull Creek Primary School was for our children. We bought a house in 2024 and moved to Leeming, but the kids continued to attend BCPS. Dietrich is now in Year 7 at Leeming SHS and Alaina is in Year 5.

When we first moved to Australia, my work as a mining engineer had me doing FIFO from Monday to Thursday, but now I work 100% from home, which makes it much easier to get involved with the school.
I accepted the role as Your Move Champion, since I recognise the privilege that Australian weather provides for getting to school by foot, scooter or bike all year round; I have the kids ride to school every day that they can. It’s a great way to build fitness, as well as independence and responsibility (when they start riding on their own), not to mention, the benefits for the environment.

I look forward to giving back to the school by highlighting and promoting healthier, more active ways of getting around to the BCPS community.

Luke Xu

Grants Committee
My family and I made the move to Bull Creek in 2022 after four wonderful years in the Pilbara. We chose Bull Creek for its outstanding schools, convenient location, and welcoming community atmosphere. We’re proud parents to two sons, with our eldest currently in Pre-Primary.
As a Materials Engineer working in the Energy industry, I’m deeply passionate about STEM education. I believe in fostering curiosity, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills in our young people. In my free time, you’ll find me immersed in a good book, playing table tennis, or conducting fun (sometimes messy) kitchen science experiments with my son.
I’m excited to learn more about the school and look forward to playing an active role in enhancing our school culture and community.

Tom Truong

Co-Dads Group Coordinator

Hi, I’m Tom — a proud dad to two Bull Creek Primary kids, Sophia and Hudson. By trade, I’m a passionate dental fabricator who loves helping people rediscover their smiles. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me on the tennis court, out on the golf course, or enjoying the occasional bike ride.

Daniel Hutton

Co-Dads Group Coordinator

Daniel Hutton is an engaged and supportive member of the school community and the Dads Group. With a son currently attending the school, Daniel enjoys staying connected and contributing to activities that strengthen family involvement and community spirit. As a FIFO dad, he values the opportunities to participate whenever he is home and is committed to helping create a positive, welcoming environment for all students and families.

Leah Griffiths

Newsletter Coordinator

With my husband being a Bull Creek “boy” from the 90s and our two children now in Year 1 and Kindy, our family feel a deep connection to this school. Professionally, I bring 20 years of experience with a Perth-made, Tier 1 commercial construction company, specialising in environmental strategies before moving into accounts and administration for a local builder. I am a firm advocate for honesty, integrity, and focusing on core education. I believe in a “fair go” for everyone, ensuring our kids learn at their own pace in a transparent environment. Personally, I stay engaged with current affairs and health initiatives, love gardening, and value slowing down to make memories with my family. I’m proud to contribute to the P&C and encourage everyone to volunteer!
