School Council establishes and maintains the broad direction and vision of the College within the college community. School Council develops and monitors the strategic plan, develops and updates policy, approves budgets and expenditure, maintains the grounds and facilities, enters into contracts (including canteen and cleaning), reports annually to the college community, and helps to raise the profile of the College within the community. The election for Parent Representatives to School Council is held every year in term 1 with elected representatives serving for a 2 year term.
Each School Council member is on a sub-committee or portfolio group including Finance, Policy, Profile and Communications, Buildings and Grounds and Support Groups. Special groups are formed when needed, and strategic planning happens every four years.
If you have skills or knowledge you would like to offer to School Council, please get in touch by emailing School Council President, Beth Mellick on bethmellick@gmail.com
