School Council

The Wales Street School Council is as an official body representing parents and carers and teachers. The council consists of eight parent representatives, three representatives of the Department of Education, and the Principal.

School Council is responsible for:

• Education Policy
• School Facilities
• Financial Planning
• Reporting to the community
• Employment of ancillary staff

Sub-committees

The work of School Council is supported by a number of sub-committees, each of which is responsible to School Council. The committees provide advice and recommendations to School Council in specific areas in order to assist in decision-making.

Many parents lend their expertise and support to the school by joining one or more of our School Council sub-committees, and new members are always welcome.

The current sub-committees are:

Finance and Governance
Policy and Strategic Planning

Wales Street Social
School Aged Care (SAC)
Facilities and ground Sub-Committee ( incorporating Master Planning)
