School Council is the major governing body of the school. It is made up of elected parents and Department of Education and Training staff whom, as representatives of the school community, meet throughout the year, to decide future directions for the school and oversee operations.
School Council operates through a committee structure and membership comprises School Councillors, Staff and other interested parents. They meet regularly to make recommendations to School Council.
The committees are Finance and Community Connect (formerly parents club core working group). School Council positions are occupied for two-years at a time and every year, elections are held early in the year. School Council may co-opt a community member.
School Council sets the key directions for the school and directly influence the quality of education a school provides to its students. Councillors convene or are members of the Council Committees. These Committees comprise members of School Council, community and staff members.
Elections
Council elections are held in March each year for elected members - half retiring each year. All eligible councillors may stand for re-election. The School Council also has the power to co opt members from time to time to assist with specific tasks.
