Who is behind BISC?

Originally, BISC was organised and managed by a small group of parents of Point Chevalier School students, who either have their own business or are employees of businesses. However this has now grown and includes parents from Westmere School and Pasadena Intermediate. This initiative has the full support of Point Chevalier School PTA, Westmere School Parents Net, Pasadena Intermediate CAPS, Western Springs College Parent Action Group, their Board of Trustees and school management.
