The Council usually meets on the last Thursday of each month at 6pm in Meeting Room 1. Members of the College community are welcome to attend any or all school council and sub-committee meetings.
There are five sub-committees of school council for which we always keen to receive expressions of interest in becoming a member:
Education Policy Committee
Building and Grounds Committee
Finance Committee
Communications Committee
Dates and times of all council and sub-committee meetings are shown on the College Calendar – although please double-check with the school if you are planning to attend a meeting as some of these times can change during the year.
If you would like to attend a school council or sub-committee meeting, please contact the office so that we can arrange for a school representative to welcome you to the meeting.
There is more information about School Councils on the Department of Education and Training’s website.
