Introduction

​

The Parents Association is the structure through which parents in a school can work together for the best possible education for their children. The parents association works with principal, staff and the board of management to build effective partnership between the home and school. This partnership is of vital importance in the growth and development of each child, with the assurance that each of our children obtains the best possible education.
The Parents Association Committee’ is comprised of parents of children from each year of our school. A monthly meeting of the committee is held to plan and discuss various activities scheduled for the coming year and to consider matters brought before it by parents or College management.
