OUR PARENT COMMUNITY

Gecko Community Network (GCN)

The Gecko Community Network (GCN) is a group of parent volunteers whose main role is to support the school’s sense of community, cultivate a spirit of diversity, and promote a feeling of belonging for all families in alignment with the mission and vision of the school. We aim to provide the OSC Community with fun, family-friendly activities as we celebrate traditions, languages, and multiculturalism. Our primary focus, however, is supporting parents and guardians as an OSC family. Support for GCN activities directly comes from parent/guardian volunteers, and financially from donations by sponsors and revenue from our events.

What does GCN do?
  • We support strong communication to promote an atmosphere of goodwill, cooperation, and community spirit to further endorse the OSC mission and vision
  • We assist with the integration of the new parents into the OSC community
  • We encourage active participation from parents in events organised by GCN
  • We provide support to the Student Government Association
  • We motivate and guide both Primary and Secondary Class Reps to share important class-level and school-level information, and organise events/activities that will promote cohesiveness within the grade.
  • We work hard to establish a healthy sense of belonging for all families in our community

 

As a school striving for parent engagement, we lead with our ears - listening to what parents think, dream, and worry about
