Principal's Message to the School Community

Dear KPS families,

All government schools in Victoria have a school council. They are legally constituted bodies that are given powers to set the broad direction of a school, in accordance with Ministerial Order 1280 Constitution of Government School Councils, and the Education and Training Reform Act 2006. In doing this, a school council may directly influence the quality of education for students.

Parents on school councils provide important viewpoints and have valuable skills and a range of experiences and knowledge that can help inform and shape the direction of the school. Those parents who become active on a school council find their involvement satisfying and may also find that their children feel a greater sense of belonging.

When the nomination period for the Kyneton Primary School Council Parent and DET employee categories closed at 4pm on Friday 10th March 2023, the following resulted -

The number of nominations for the Parent category equalled the number of vacancies therefore I declared elected Lauren Richardson and Sarah Dilnot. 

The number of nominations for the DET employee category equalled the number of vacancies therefore I declared elected Julie Arnephy.
