Our Teams
Our teams represent the school community and provide a vital link between our service centres and our school community. They also represent the many value-added functions we provide to the school, the students, and the school community.
The Executive Committee
Focuses on key operational requirements of the P&C and provides support to each of our subcommittees and specialist representatives. This includes finance and insurances, people, planning and staffing, administration, communication and managing special projects as needed.
Our Subcommittees
Are formed to undertake specific planning and/or management tasks on behalf of the P&C Association. Our Subcommittees are a vital link between our service centres and our parents and ensures that the needs of the parents are considered in the delivery of our services.
There are two types of subcommittees:
- Standing: These subcommittees have an ongoing role, such as band, BASC, canteen, uniform and the environment committee.
- Ad hoc: These subcommittees are formed to acquit specific tasks, such as a fundraising activity, event or a special project identified by the P&C or its members. These subcommittees cease to exist after the task is finished.
Subcommittees are fully accountable to the P&C Association and need to table a written report to each P&C Association’s general meeting.
Our General Members
Are financial members and can attend General and Subcommittee meetings and have voting rights for all motions presented at a General Meeting or Annual General Meeting. New members are always welcome.
MEETINGS
Our teams are invited to meetings by the relevant Convenor.
Subcommittee meetings are also open to all financial members of the P&C and the dates must be advertised.
We usually do this by email and a minimum of seven day’s notice is required.
