Decision making

The School Decision-Making Group enables participation in the formulation of the school's educational objectives and priorities.

Any parent, interested student or teacher is welcome to attend meetings of the P & C, committees or the School Council.

• School Policy Council
• Committees
• Student Council
• Parents and Citizens' Association

School Policy Council
The School Policy Council consists of equal numbers of parents and staff representatives and the principal. Students may also have elected representation.

Committees

Student Council
Student opinion is valued. Student Councillors, including the Head Boy and Head Girl, provide a liaison between staff and students. Students from Years 9 to 12 are eligible to be Student Councillors and their peers elect them to the positions. Through the Student Council students are encouraged to explore their leadership potential and develop their leadership abilities.

Parents and Citizens’ Association
The Parents and Citizens' Association is established to promote the interests of the school by bringing about closer co-operation between parents, teachers, students and the wider community. Its main objective is to assist the school to nurture the educational, moral, physical and social welfare of the students by active co-operation with the Education Department, the school and the community.

Any parent may join the P&C on payment of an annual fee of $1.00 and may thereby vote or stand in elections of office bearers.

Meetings of the P&C Association are held twice a term in the staff room.

The Parents and Citizens’ Association and the School Council provide formal opportunities for parent participation. Other opportunities for parent involvement include Open Door days, telephone contacts and meetings with teachers, parent meetings, attending assemblies, volunteering and participating in other support groups.
