At the beginning of each academic year the new PA committee is selected at the AGM of the PA. This is advertised through the text system and School notice-board. Look out for this notification and come if possible. New parents are actively encouraged to join the committee. All parents are welcome to contribute to discussions at the AGM, assist with events and participate in the committee.
From an individual parent’s perspective, you get to know a lot of people through the PA, and get to know more teachers than those directly involved with your children. Being a member is not just enjoyable, it gives you a reassurance and confidence in the School that is educating your child. By active participation in school activities and events we are sending an important message to the children, teachers and school management that we value the education our children receive. People are not always available to help out for every event, so it helps if we have a pool of names to call on (which is actually not very often!).
