PTF GENERAL MEETING

Thank to all the wonderful parents who attended our first PTF meeting for the year. This meeting was an ideas meeting as the school is in a position of being able to start forward planning on some bigger projects to improve the school for our students. 

 

Some of the ideas that were put forward at the meeting are:

 

  1. Refurbish the classrooms.
  2. To display our School Core Values on totem poles with the statements “We are Learners, “We are Safe” and “We are Respected”.
  3. The COLA area has been inundated with pigeons and the school is currently looking into getting this problem fixed ASAP
  4. Storage is also another area that we could look into or replacing goods such as tables or sports equipment.
  5. Drainage as water pools on the cement under the COLA area.
  6. Fix the area behind the canteen to make it a nice place to sit and eat lunch and incorporate a sensory garden as well.
  7. Amenities block painted, doors replaced and new bubblers to be installed.
  8. Fundraising ideas.

These projects may take 6 to 12 months to implement so if anyone has any other ideas please contact Mr Baird.
