Committee of Management

Our kindergarten has previously been an independent, community run kindergarten, however in 2017, the Commitee of Managment (in negotiation with the community) joined the Combined Pre-schools of the Southern Grampians Early Years Management group (CPSG). After much consideration and discussion, including two open meetings, a decision was made to move to the CPSG, so long as monies remained with the local branch of the Bendigo Bank. This has, in most part, removed the burden of running the kindergarten, employing and paying staff, and policy and bureaucracy from parents.

If you are part of our kindergarten you are a general member, so please don't hesitate to ask one of our committee members if you have a question-they are all parents or ex-parents of kindergarten children. Committee Meetings are approximately once a month and all 'General Members' are welcome: those who pay to belong and the parent body.

Minutes of meetings are kept in the labelled folder by the back door in the 'Parent Library'.

There is a 'Combined Pre-schools of the Southern Grampians Information Folder' in the Parent Library. It contains testimonies from past staff as well as information from CPSG and the Department. Please have a look.
