School Council Committees

The School Council Committees are an important aspect of its function. Malvern Primary School Council has the following Committees: 

Buildings, Grounds and Sustainability Education and Policy

Finance 

Traffic Working Party.

 

Each year we call for members of the school community to join the committees. This is an opportunity for the school community to work on a committee that enables them to use their skills, offer their expertise or work on an area of interest.

 

We are currently forming our committees for 2021. By joining a committee there is no obligation to attend School Council, however you would be required to meet at least twice a term with the committee. If you would like to become a member of a Committee or Working Party please email the school at malvern.ps@edumail.vic.gov.au providing the following information:
