Honorary Membership – Past Staff
Honorary Membership is offered to staff members when they leave the School. Staff play a vital role in the fabric and make up of the School, and OPGA seeks to recognise the key role that staff play in the life of the students at Peninsula. Many staff serve the school with distinction for many years. Staff are always welcome and encouraged to attend reunions and events such as our Past Staff Morning Tea. We ask that you please ‘update your details’ with us to ensure you are notified of relevant events. Honorary Membership is free of charge and receives the same benefits of Life Membership. In acknowledging the important role of Staff, a Past Staff Representative is invited to sit on the committee.
