2026 School Council Elections

We know that one of our school’s key strengths is our strong community involvement. Our School Council is one the main forums in which parents and staff work together for the benefit of all our students. We have 4 x parent member positions to fill this year for a period of two years.

Council meets twice per term on a Wednesday evening at 7pm. Meetings are efficiently run and rarely go over an hour. I have attached a fact sheet with further information however please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Should we receive more nominations than positions vacant we will need to call an election.

From 2026, parents, carers and community members who would like to join the school council need a working with children (WWC) clearance to nominate.

If you are interested in joining our Council, please fill in the nomination form linked below and return it to me by Wednesday the 19th of February at 4.00pm.
