School Council

The Westgarth Primary School Council is a group of ten parents, five Department of Education employees (including the principal) and two co-opted members.

The Council:

• Develops the school's strategic plan and annual implementation plan.
• Determines the school's general educational policy.
• Approves and monitors the school's budget.
• Supervises the management and maintenance of buildings and grounds.
• Establishes our structure for consulting parents on decisions.
• Reports annually to the Minister of Education and the school community through the Annual Report. Generally stimulates interest in the school.
• Supervises the management of the OSHC program.

The Council usually meets on the third Wednesday of the month at 7:00pm in the school staff room. Parents are welcome to attend school council meetings. If you would like to attend, please contact the office so that we can arrange for a school representative to welcome you to the meeting.
