Thank you to our Governing Council Members for 2023; Sam Neville, Andrew Redman-Wenham, Chelsea Mount, Ben Sanderson, Laura Kool, Emma Collingwood, Sally Woolford, Angelica Crabb, Anna Forgan, Declan Page, Janita Bentley, Andrew Brown, and retired members Adam Pope, Eve Evans and David Hodges. Thankyou also to Rob, Kat, and Kate from the staff side of the Council also. Your support and input over the year has helped our school continue to run smoothly and ensure school related decisions have been thoroughly vetted before getting the seal of approval. Your time and effort this year has been invaluable to me also as your Chair.

If you are a new parent/carer to the school, or have been considering joining the council over time, please consider nominating yourself for the 2024 Council at the AGM in Week 3 next year. Nomination forms are available on the schools website, and on the P&F page. You can nominate yourself, or grab a fellow parent and nominate each other. We will have at least 10 positions open for the 2024 council, for a 2 year term. Executive positions (Chair, Deputy Chair, Secretary, Finance Committee) will also be nominated and voted upon at the AGM. Governing Council meetings runs from 6-7:30pm on Tuesday in Weeks 3 & 8 of each term and are held in the school staff room. We are seeking interested parents/careers to be on the sub committees that oversee Canteen, OSHC, Sports and Parents and friends. If you have another area in which you'd like to represent, we can create a subcommittee for this also. We are Governed by you!

If you'd like to speak to a Governing Council Member about what's involved, please reach out, you can find us on the P&F page, in the school yard or you can email your contact details to cvpsgc.council298@schools.sa.edu.au and I can get in touch with you directly.
