​One way parents/guardians can make a meaningful difference for students is by participating on our school’s parent society. Parent societies are a formal group of parents, incorporated under the Societies Act for the purpose of raising funds for the school. A society is a separate legal entity from the school council. More information can be found in our CBE Administrative Regulation 5001 – School Councils and School/Parent Societies.​​

Parent Society

Our Parent Society is known as the Sir John Franklin Parent Association.

Meeting Dates/Schedule

School Council meets the third Wednesday of every month (Except December and June). A link is sent out to all of our school community prior, so that anyone can attend. 

See our Calendar page for dates and times.
