P&C President Report 2010
Corrimal East Public School P&C have had another busy and productive year during 2010.
Despite the unusual conditions with BER work disrupting parts of the school and staff changes the P&C continued to run effectively and provide an active forum for all parents and interested citizens of East Corrimal Public School.
The highlight for the P&C and our fundraising would have to be our annual school fete.
If you were at the school on Sunday 29th August you would have seen hundreds of visitors to the school who wouldn’t normally think twice about our school.
Yet on fete day here they are wandering around enjoying our school grounds, it really is a great advertisement for the school. The fete is a wonderful chance for the school community to come together and show off what we can do together.
Special thank you to Sharon McFarlane and all her many helpers for putting together an awesome day, I encourage all parents to be prepared to help out again on the fete day in 2011.
The P&C has been publicizing in the Carooma about where the funds from the fete and other fundraising projects are being spent to benefit your children.
I encourage all parents to consider being involved with the P&C you get a real joy knowing you are giving up your time to be involved with helping your child’s school, and ultimately your child’s education.
The P&C meets once per month on the 2nd Tuesday night when you take away the school holidays it probably equates to 6-7 meetings per year, and our meetings last about an hour and half, it is not a big commitment.
The P&C is at the heart of nearly all parent involvement at the school.
We all want the best possible school and school environment for our kids and the P&C provides the best forum for an active involvement in your child’s education.
I really encourage all parents to get involved with the P&C we are always looking for volunteers to help out with projects that ultimately benefit all of the children.
If there are things you like or dislike about our school the P&C is the best place to come to discuss these issues.
