All parents are eligible for membership and are urged to consider participating in our School Council. We have at least 8 School Council meetings per year, usually 2 per term. School Councillors provide a line of communication from the school community and have valuable skills that can help share the direction of the school.
School Council elections are held each year in March. Parents can nominate themselves or nominate another parent. Please consider nominating yourself as it allows you to learn more about the school and have input as a parent representative into our school planning. In the event that the number of nominations is more than the number of vacancies, a ballot will be required.
The Department of Education and Training document “Making the Partnership Work”, gives an overview of School Council roles and responsibilities. It is accessible here:
If you require any further information regarding School Council, please do not hesitate to contact the school office.
