We encourage all parents to be actively involved in the life of the school. Contact with your child’s teacher will give you the opportunity of helping in some way e.g. reading, language activities, and music. Throughout the school, there are opportunities to help out with programs such as Swimming, Sporting events, Bike Education and Reading. We’d be delighted to have your offer of assistance!
PARENT ORGANISATIONS
There are two official bodies representing the parents of our school community; these are the School Council and Parents and Friends Club.
1. SCHOOL COUNCIL
Our School Council is composed of eight members elected by the parents of the school, and 2 members of staff. This council is the governing body of the school and is responsible for the maintenance of the school buildings and grounds, the allocation and spending of government grant monies, curriculum policies, the welfare of pupils and teachers and the future planning and development of the school.
Elections are conducted at the beginning of each year. School Council is organised on a sub-committee basis, where necessary.
