Parent Council AGM 2019

Our Parent Council (PC) Annual General Meeting (AGM) is coming up on Wednesday 4th September, 6:30pm-8pm in the school link building (in the lower playground).

Any parent/guardian can be a member of the Parent Council/Parent Staff Association Committee & put themselves forward for the roles of: Parent Council Chair; Secretary; Treasurer at the AGM. 
This year, rather than having a PSA Chair, we're going for coordinators for our streamlined PSA events (details below and in picture).

If you cannot make the meeting but would like to do one of the roles, please contact broughtonparents@gmail.com by the 3rd September & your name will be noted for voting on the night. 

For information on the roles, the below guidelines are very handy to read through.

This year, due to work commitments, myself & former PSA chair, Anne, cannot be as hands on with PSA events as we have in past years, so the combined knowledge of myself & Anne will be given to anyone wanting to step in to coordinate the:
*Lagganlia Cafe 27th September > this cafe is to welcome back our current P7's from Lagganlia. The raised funds will go to the Lagganlia coach & activities for those who choose not to attend Lagganlia in 2020.
*Halloween Discos 1st November
*Christmas Cafe 13th December
*Family night 6th March > this is a new event with nothing planned, ideas for the night are welcome
*Summer Fair 30th May
