The Parent Council Needs YOU!

The Easter break will soon be upon us followed by the final term for school year 2009/10. For many of the current Parent Council, this will be their last involvement. We therefore need more Parents/Carers to volunteer for the Parent Council for 2010/11. This is your chance to get more involved with the school your child attends; there are important topics that need our support such as the proposed new school premises (to be shared with St Mary’s) and ongoing discussions about budget constraints and the impact on the school.
All Parent Council posts will be up for re-election including Chair, Vice Chair and Treasurer as well as the support of this website.
If you would like to find out more about the Parent Council, please contact Debbie Strachan for a confidential chat on ‘ask_hispp@edubuzz.org’.
