School Council
On Monday, 18th March 2024 your newly appointed School Council have held two key meetings - Our Annual General Meeting to share our 2023 Annual Report with our community and our March 2024 School Council meeting.
The Annual Report outlines for the community the school’s performance for the previous year, including academic performance, alignment with annual implementation goals and our school’s financial position. It was great having additional members from our school community join the presentation and endorsement of the 2023 Annual Report. This will be publicly available on our school website once endorsed by the Department of Education and Training quality assurance process.
Our primary focus for the March meeting is to elect Office Bearer positions within our School Council. We welcome and congratulate the following to School Council for 2024:
