Our School Council is a dedicated team of parents, community members, and staff (including Department of Education and Training employees) who work together to support the Principal and help guide the direction of our school.
​
What Does the School Council Do?
​
School Councils are formally established under the Minister for Education and focus on three key areas:
Finance – overseeing budgets and school spending
Strategic Planning – setting goals and shaping the school’s future
Policy – developing and reviewing policies that reflect our school’s values and priorities
​
Beyond this, Councillors also play a broader role in representing the school community. They help with fundraising, support services like after-school care, manage contracts, promote school events, maintain facilities, and act as a bridge between families and the school.
Get Involved!
We have sub-committees that focus on specific areas, and all members of the school community are welcome to join—it's a great way to get involved without being on Council.
Elections are held each March, and terms are for two years. We meet twice per term, usually on a Monday evening.
Being a School Councillor is a rewarding way to contribute to your child’s education and be part of the school’s ongoing success.
