Parents Association
Wanniassa Preschool values the contributions of parents and each year we ask families to become part of the Parent Association. The Parent Association fulfils the same role as the P&C for the Preschool year. It is simple to become a member of the Parent Association.
It is often normal practise that parents are automatically a member of the Parent Association. However, in our constitution the parents need to apply to be a member. This does not mean that you will be on any committees, only that you will be welcome to have input into providing a sound environment for your Preschool child.
All you need to do is to fill out the nomination form and bring it to your interview. An executive member of the Parent Association will complete the nomination section.
There are 2 or 3 meetings each term to discuss the running of the preschool and any other matters of interest. An Executive Committee is elected by parents at the Annual General Meeting in February. A profile of Committee positions is provided in your information package. Please consider nominating for a position.
Parent Support
Parentlink is a website which parents can use to access:
• Parents guides, including electronic order forms
• A directory of local parenting services
• Upcoming community events and parenting courses
• Further readings in relation to the parent guides
• Links to other useful websites.
Should you require support for any reason, please don’t hesitate to speak to your teacher. We have access to many resources and may be able to help. There is also a parent library. This is located in room 1. The library has a wide range of parenting books, which you can borrow by writing the name of the book and your name in the borrowing book.
Payments
The Preschool Parent Association is responsible for collecting fundraising money and money for Preschool excursions. When making payments to the preschool Parent Association please deposit them in the secure BLUE letter box in the shed. Please ensure that you place the correct money in an envelope labelled with the details of the payment being made, your child’s name and group. Please try not to give these monies to staff.
