BOT
The Board of Trustees has the role of School Governance, with its core focus being raising student achievement and improving the learning outcomes for all students. The Board sets goals for the school via the Charter and reports on our progress to the school and wider community through its Annual Report. The Board usually meets in Weeks 3 & 8 of each term. The agenda and minutes of each meeting are available to view at the school office. Parents are most welcome to attend meetings to observe Board process. Parent representatives are elected onto the Board for a three-year term. Next elections are in 2022. Please contact the Board Chairperson (via the school Office) if there are issues you would like the Board to discuss. Our Board of Trustees (elected 2019) Chairperson: Shane Casey Trustees: Rochelle Chase, Rachel Lane, Richard Dodunski, Simon Wishnowsky Staff Representative: Dianne Simpson Principal: Alastair Schaw Board Secretary: Paula Stace Next BOT Election: September 2022 |
PTA
The PTA is very active at Halcombe School and organises a variety of activities to support our school and encourage parent participation. The PTA undertakes fundraising and supports school functions in a variety of ways. PTA-run events such as the Gala and Quiz Night bring in valuable funds for school resources such as the environmental area, computers and ICT equipment, library resources and technology resources. The PTA meets throughout the year - see the newsletter for meeting dates. The PTA Executive is confirmed each year at its AGM (usually in Term 1). Parents/caregivers are welcome to join the PTA committee and attend meetings at any time during the year. Our PTA Executive President: Lucinda Dodunski Vice President: Richard Waugh Secretary: Philippa Evans Treasurer: Gary Dundass Pastoral Care: Lucinda Dodunski |
“Friends of the PTA”
We have a “Friends of the PTA” group of parents that we can call on for extra help. This might involve providing afternoon tea for a school event, helping with classroom tasks, providing support for families in need, or collecting things from town. Please come join us! Contact the Office for details. We’d love to know that we can call on you.
