OUR TEAM

The Board is accountable for the school’s operations and performance from a governance position. The day to day management of the school is delegated to the Principal. The Board’s responsibilities are strategic leadership and ensuring the school meets legislative requirements and regulatory responsibilities as required by the Education and Training Act 2020 and other legislation. Key areas for the Board are student achievement, setting and monitoring policies, the employment of staff, financial management and ensuring the school is a safe environment for students and staff. As a state integrated special character school, the Board is also responsible for ensuring that our Christian character is upheld in all aspects of the school’s operations.
 

The Board consists of the Principal, one staff representative, five parent elected members and two Proprietor Appointees. The Board also has a secretary for minute taking. The five parents members were elected by the school community in September 2022 for a three year term. The staff representative was elected in July 2024. The next Board elections are in September 2025.
