As a parent or carer, you are an important part of our school community. We offer a range of services to support you and your family.
Our Parents and Citizens’ Association (P&C) is made up of parents and carers, teachers and community members. The P&C meets regularly to contribute to decision-making, developing policies and management plans as well as fundraising.
The school counsellor can assist when families undergo a trauma or big change. Contact us to make an appointment. For information in community languages, see school counselling service.
Outside of the education system, free telephone counselling services are available to support families who may be going through a difficult time.
We will help you communicate with our school. If you’d like an interpreter for a school meeting, let us know and we will arrange one, if available.
If you don’t speak or understand English well and want to contact us, call TIS National on 131 450 and ask for an interpreter in your language. The operator will call the school and get an interpreter to help. This service is free.
For more information, listen in your language.
Visit the department’s translated documents section for important information that’s relevant for your child’s education in many languages.

We would like to acknowledge and pay our respects to the Saltwater Aboriginal people of Coastal Sydney, the descendants who make up the La Perouse Aboriginal community today. We thank and respect the Elders for they hold the traditions, cultures, hopes and dreams for this land we gather on today. Education is the key to success that opens to a brighter future. Therefore, we should all strive to use our knowledge at Matraville Sports High School to become the leaders of today and in the future.
