What’s the Parent Council for?
by Breadalbane Parent Council • • 2 Comments
One of the things we discussed at the last meeting, was what the Parent Council is for and what it should be doing for you and your kids.
We’ve drawn up a draft explanation of what we think the council should do. We plan to use this as the text of a new page on this website. Before we make the page live, we’d like to know what you think.
Are you happy with it? Is anything unclear? Do you disagree with anything? Can you suggest any improvements?
Download the draft text, have a read and let us know what you think.
