Dear parents and carers,
There are currently 4 available spaces on our College Council for parents or carers who are interested in joining the council this year. 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.
I have attached the relevant nomination forms and an information sheet for those who would like more details or to nominate themselves or someone else. Hard copies of these forms are also be available from the Front Office of the college.
Completed nomination forms must be returned to the college by 4pm, Monday 15 February. You can drop your nomination form off in person at the Front Office or email it to echuca.co@education.vic.gov.au. If there are more nominations than available spaces, a ballot will then be held.
I look forward to carrying on the tradition of strong parent participation in this important group.
Regards,
Simon Wood
Acting Principal – Echuca College
