The Coleraine & District
Kindergarten Executive Committee are happy to inform the community that a final
decision has been made and the Coleraine Kindergarten will be joining the Combined
Pre-schools of the Southern Grampians in 2017; on the proviso that monies
remain with the local branch of the Bendigo Bank.
After extensive investigation
and discussions with the cluster organisation and their representatives coming
to General Meetings, parents, community members, local kindergartens and past
and present early childhood staff and an open meeting on the 19th of
October for discussion, a Special meeting was held on the 15th
November 2016 and an official vote of the General Committee was taken. A clear
result from the vote was to move to a cluster for the management of the
Coleraine Kindergarten.
This does not mean there is
not a need for parent involvement. A Site Committee is still required and will
be responsible in ensuring the Kindergarten is still run in accordance with the
best interest for the Community and the parents, carers and children attending.
If there are any questions or
anyone requires more clarification on what this means for the Kindergarten and
the Community please contact Georgina Templeton (President), Rhianna Paton
(Treasurer) or Tanya McLachlan (Secretary) through the above phone number,
leave a message and we will be happy to clarify any queries you have. The CPSG website is: http://www.cpsg.org.au/ for further information.
