Committee Update

At our last Committee Meeting the Parents Association were very pleased to have in attendance Dr O'Connell and Independent facilitator John Beech. Dr O'Connell provided an update on the new School Strategic Plan and reinforced the strong support that the School has for the role that parent support groups play within the Scotch Community.

John has been assisting the School in facilitating the next Strategic Plan and assisted our discussion in relation to the possibility of the Parents Association working with the Scotch Auxiliary towards forming one parent support group. He understands the common values and purpose that the two groups have and is keen to work with both groups in future merger discussions. These will occur over the coming months.

There were no funding applications but we are looking forward to the possibility of a presentation by the Student Council at our next meeting.

Have a happy and restful holiday break.

Mr Ian Knobel

President
