  • Helps to maintain the school’s grounds and facilities.
  • Enters into contracts. (e.g. cleaning, construction work)
  • Reports annually to the school community and to DET.
  • Stimulates interest in the school generally.

​Membership
  • There are three types of membership on school council: Parent members, DET employee members and optional community members.
  • Call for nominations to vacant positions are published in the February newsletters.
