Broken Bay CSP Constitution

History & Name Change:
The Diocesan Parent Council (DPC) was formed in recognition of the need to formalise connections between parent groups and the Catholic Schools Broken Bay (CSBB) and build the capacity of parents within their school communities in particular to undertake leadership roles, most notably through positions on P&F / Parent teams.
After consultation and discussions, with both our parent community and CSBB, it was decided that changing our name in late 2016 from Diocesan Parent Council (DPC) to Broken Bay Catholic School Parents (CSP) would assist strengthen our profile and identity in the Diocese.
