Parents/Guardians & Community Involvement
 
Daylesford Secondary College is committed to maintaining strong links with the local community and to providing and encouraging community use of its facilities. We welcome our Year 7 parents each year with a staff and family B.B.Q. A number of parents support us as parent tutors in our Literacy and Numeracy programs. Other parents offer their time and expertise in a variety of ways to assist us in daily operations and fund raising.
