On behalf of the Friends of A.B. Paterson College (FAB) we extend a warm welcome to you and your family, as part of our College community.

Since the College’s inception, the Friends of A.B.

The role of FAB within the College is to encourage, promote and foster the amazing sense of community that our College is so well known for. We believe that our College community is integral in supporting our students and families during their time at the College and beyond.

FAB are very fortunate to be surrounded by so many more of our College family and friends who volunteer their time to assist the College at events. Volunteering really does allow you to connect to current College families and is a wonderful way to work alongside our College community. FAB will continue to keep you updated with events throughout the year and should you wish to be involved, have any suggestions on future events, want to learn more about FAB, or just want to say hello, feel free to contact the FAB Committee at any time, fab@abpat.qld.edu.au.

More friends and helpers are always welcome!
