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

Tahmina Anwari

President

As a mother of 2 young children, one of which is currently in year 1, I have had the privilege of experiencing Bull Creek Primary School values from the very beginning.

My interests are in cooking, spending quality time with friends and family, finding the time to read a good novel and travelling.

Through integration of my skills and knowledge as a Doctor of medicine, I believe in a holistic approach to education and growth, which incorporates the uniqueness of each child and their needs to provide them the opportunities to excel in their endeavours.

I am excited for another year of being part of a vibrant P&C which aims to provide your children at Bull Creek Primary School a sense of belonging to a wider, happy community whilst instilling the values of the school.

Richelle Doney

Vice President

I have been part of Bull Creek PS since 2023 when my daughter commenced Kindy. I was active in the Events Team and planning for the 2023 Quiz Night and elected as the P&C Vice President in 2024.

With a background in interior architecture, academia and public art I grew up in the wheatbelt of WA, spent 10+ years of my career in Melbourne and am now making my home once more in Perth working in the art and project management arenas.

I have a passion for community activation, engagement and the creative arts and have run my own design consultancy. I value the opportunity to represent our school and children and supporting their growth and development through all the P+C contributes to their environment.

Ben Hartig

Treasurer

In 2021, our son Patrick started at Bull Creek Primary School in pre-primary and in 2023 my daughter Margot started kindy here. We love this school and are so grateful to be part of this community. My wife Lisa and her career as a primary school teacher have really instilled in me the significance of the foundation that primary education provides. I believe that the job of raising and educating the next generation takes a whole village and I believe that the P&C is the best way that we can engage in that community.

I have gained a breadth of experience through my past career in hospitality and my current role as an engineer and researcher. I have spent the past 10 years building observatories in the Australian desert and recently had the honour of leading an engineering team in the development of Western Australia’s first homegrown satellite. I am passionate about creating opportunities for students of all ages to experience the challenges of developing technology, I will be looking for ways to support the school in giving our kids access to cutting edge STEM experiences.

Aarthi Aravindhan

Joint Secretary

Our family moved to Bull Creek, Perth in July 2023 and 2 of my kids are going to BCPS ever since.
Being a Structural Engineer and working in the commercial sector of the Construction Industry in Singapore for the last couple of decades this is my first sabbatical and so took the opportunity to learn and be engaged with the community through the P&C.

 

Xuan Goode

Joint Secretary and Events Coordinator

I grew up in Bull Creek and after moving away as a young adult, I later returned to raise my children in the same community that helped to shape by values. To me, Bull Creek is a wonderful area to raise a young family with so many kid-friendly amenities but more importantly kind and down to earth neighbours. 

Work wise I’m a Clinical Pharmacist specialising in Cancer Services which is both humbling and rewarding. I enjoy cake making and decorating, rock climbing, camping, pilates and nights out. I went to my first P&C meeting when my eldest child was in Pre-Primary and it was clear how much of an impact the P&C made on our school community. I’m happy to utilise my skillset to support the P&C as Joint Secretary, whilst also being the Events Coordinator.

I’m looking forward to giving back to the community that raised me and working with our wonderful educators, parents and community members to organise some exciting events for the year. We always need volunteers for our events so please feel free to reach out to us!

Martin Lau

Fathering Project

My family have been part of Bull Creek PS since 2015 when my eldest son commenced kindy. I was elected as the P&C treasurer in 2019 and enjoyed the financial challenge faced by P&C in 2020.

I have been involved in the finance industry since 2007, witnessing many peaks and troughs of the property market – not unlike the emotional roller coaster of a primary school kid.

I hope I have brought a dad’s perspective to the P&C. I would like to use this opportunity to call out for more dads to get involved.

Ana Haynes

Book Club

Our family joined Bull Creek Primary School in 2019 when my eldest started kindy. Now he is in Year 4 and my daughters are in Year 1 and we were all absorbed into the welcoming Bull Creek PS 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.

Lisa Millar

Uniforms

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 heath, 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 kindy. 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 am excited to help run the Quiz Night this year!

Lydia U

Assistant 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 2 years and it has been a pleasure to have this opportunity to give back to the school and community.
