The Great Nundle Dog Race steals the show at P&C Annual Conference

Deputy Premier and Education Minister Prue Car headed up a list of expert speakers at the conference who addressed P&C members from across the state at the Pullman Hyde Park Hotel.

But it was the Nundle P&C Association's presentation about the power of the The Great Nundle Dog Race that captured the hearts of the conference delegates and brought the house down.

NSW P&C Federation President Yvonne Hilsz said the Nundle P&C presentation was the highlight of a conference filled with guest speakers, networking and information sessions aimed at helping P&C associations to achieve the best possible outcomes for their schools.

"This year's conference was a huge success," Ms Hilsz said.

"Our theme was 'Enrich, Engage, Elevate' and many of our delegates told me that the day's program provided them with the tools to do just that for their P&Cs.

"But the undeniable highlight of the day was the Nundle P&C Association's presentation about how The Great Nundle Dog Race brought its community together to raise money for its tiny school of 24 students."

Ms Hilsz said the day ended on a high with the announcement of the Annual P&C Awards winners.
