At Alpina Schools & Colleges, we recognise parents as essential partners in a child’s educational journey. Meaningful collaboration between home and school strengthens learning outcomes, nurtures character, and ensures each child’s holistic development. We therefore place great emphasis on open communication, mutual trust, and shared responsibility.
Our doors are always open to parents seeking information, guidance, or discussion. Individual appointments with Branch Heads, Principals, or faculty members may be scheduled at any time. In addition, regular Open House meetings provide structured opportunities for confidential dialogue between parents and class teachers regarding academic progress, personal development, and strategies for continued growth.
We believe that when parents and educators work together with clarity and purpose, students thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
Parents are a valued part of the Alpina community. Your interest, encouragement, and involvement play a vital role in sustaining the school’s culture of excellence and enthusiasm.
We actively welcome parental participation in:
Co-curricular and cultural activities
Educational visits and field trips
Community service initiatives and school events
Many parents bring professional expertise, creative skills, or life experience that can enrich the learning environment. If you feel you can make a meaningful contribution, please inform your child’s Class Teacher or Vice Principal and complete the Parent Volunteer Form available at the School Office.
Timely and transparent communication is essential to supporting your child’s wellbeing. Parents are requested to inform the school promptly of any developments that may affect their child, including:
Medical, physical, emotional, or behavioural concerns
Changes in home circumstances
Updated addresses or contact numbers
An emergency contact number must always be on record to enable swift communication when required.
Parents play an irreplaceable role in shaping attitudes towards learning. The following principles help reinforce your child’s progress at Alpina:
Work in partnership with teachers to support learning and discipline
Celebrate your child’s individuality—avoid comparisons and focus on strengths
Encourage curiosity, independence, and responsibility
Foster open conversation and active listening at home
Involve your child in everyday activities and family planning
Set achievable, purposeful tasks to build confidence and self-esteem
Praise effort and progress; do not expect perfection
Demonstrate respect for education—let your child know that school matters
Visit the school regularly, particularly on Open House days
Read with your child daily, even for 20 minutes—reading is the single most powerful learning activity
Encourage writing through everyday tasks such as notes, lists, letters, and instructions
Make thoughtful use of books, digital resources, audio-visual tools, and technology to enrich learning
And above all: enjoy your child.
Celebrate their growth, share in their discoveries, and take pride in their journey—because education is most powerful when it is rooted in love, encouragement, and belief.
