| P & F Association |
The Parents’ and Friends’ Association aims to further the educational,
social and financial interests of the School, through liaison with the
School Council and the Principal. It also provides assistance with
School activities, together with the raising and expenditure of funds.
Membership is open to all parents, guardians and fee payers of
children attending the School, and adult persons who can satisfy the
Association they have a bona fide interest in furthering the objectives
of the Association (such as past students).
The P & F is managed by a Committee, made up of:
The Executive, consisting of a President, two Vice-Presidents,
Secretary and Treasurer; the School Principal/
representative (ex-officio member), and from four (4) to ten
(10) Committee members.
All Committee positions are open for election at the Association’s
Annual General Meeting held in late February of each year.
The Committee is divided into sub-committees, consisting of two or
more Committee members, responsible for co-ordination of such
activities as:
Parent Services and Levy
Fundraising and social activities
Road Safety Awareness
Committee meetings are held monthly (during term time). All members
are welcome to attend. Copies of the Association Constitution are
available at the School Reception. Dates of meetings are published
regularly in the P&F section of the school newsletter.
All parents are expected to contribute their services to the School, in
such areas as the Café, the Uniform Shop, fundraising and social events,
and grounds maintenance. To assist parents, the P&F Committee
coordinates a parent services scheme, through which parents may elect
to provide volunteer labour/ services, or pay a levy equivalent.
Currently the minimum service requirement is set at 12 hours per
annum, at $18/ hour (levied on a quarterly basis). If you have any
queries regarding the P&F Committee, please contact the School and/ or
your Executive member. Contact details for the P&F Committee
members are regularly published in the P&F section of the school newsletter. |
