APC History - South Australia
In 1967, a group of concerned parents from Catholic schools in SA met to form a group to lobby the state government to provide funding grants to Catholic schools. At that time, SA was the only state that did not provide government aid to our schools. Their lobbying was successful and from this fruitful beginning the Federation has grown and flourished.
It continues to be an active voice for parents and families with children in Catholic schools, representing the views, thoughts and needs of all parents in state and national education forums. The Federation also proudly supports and promotes the tireless work of parents as partners in school communities.
