Minnewasta Parent Advisory Council
Welcome to all the families in our school. The Minnewasta Parent Advisory Council is a parents' link to the school. It is a way to involve parents in school activities, to work alongside the principal on school issues, to promote community involvement and to ask questions regarding school issues.
Our council is an organization of fathers, mothers and teachers designed:
鈥媡o stand for progress in the neighbourhood
to create public opinion necessary for educational progress
to arouse a community sense of responsibility for its most precious asset -- our children
It provides parents with an opportunity to better understand the purpose and methods of the school and to keep abreast of the advances of modern education. Last but not least, its purpose is educational. The council does not seek to direct the administrative activities in the schools, control their policies or provide a clearinghouse for personal grievances.
Council Activities:
Below are a few of our activities:
- 鈥鈥distribute and collate the fall volunteer survey
- purchase of gym, classroom and outdoor equipment and playground toys, and extra teaching resources or supplies
- presentation of books to school family's newborn babies
- operation of staff appreciation week with a luncheon and dainties throughout the month of February
- discussions on school curriculum
- 鈥媘aintenance of a council bulletin board located by the school office
So what are we? We are a support system for the parents to help the teachers give our children the best education they can get. So please, when asked, volunteer to help our school, and if possible, come to Minnewasta Parent Advisory Meetings. We need parents' views on where we should be heading with our school.
