Re-instating our Parent Council
As part of our school improvement plans we are keen to re-establish a meaningful avenue for parental consultation and fundraising by the end of this term and would like to invite parents and carers who are interested in helping shape this work to get involved. There are three opportunities to express your interest:
  1. Meet the Teacher Event – Wednesday 2 September, 3:15pm to 4:15pm – Please drop into the Digi Hub, located beside the main office. Mrs Tweed and/or Mr Fox will be available for an informal chat about parental engagement and the possibility of establishing a Parent Council.
  2. Head Teacher‘s Coffee Morning – Friday 18 September, 9:00am to 9:45am – Another relaxed opportunity to discuss how we can work together to strengthen parental engagement within our school community.
  3. Register Your Interest Online – If you are unable to attend either of the above events, please complete the following form to register your interest: Interest Form
