Committee News – February 2006

 

At the last committee meeting, Fiona Sutherland stood down as Chair. We’d like to thank her for all her hard work in this role and are grateful to report that she has agreed to stay on committee. Kate Lemon, who has been Acting Chair for the past six months, will now officially take on the position of Chair.

 

We have had some more parents come forward who would like to be involved in the pre-school committee. Please keep an eye out for a notice advertising an Extraordinary General Meeting in the near future, in order to formally elect them. If anyone else wants to volunteer, it’s not too late!

 

We now have a website, at www.wasps.smartemail.co.uk. As well as attracting new parents, we would like it to be useful for existing parents, so if you have any comments or suggestions for improvement please contact Kate Croudace. The site does include some pictures of the children as well as their work. We have imposed two criteria on ourselves: that none of the children's names should be able to be obtained from the site and that no photos should be included that show any child's face. If anybody has any concerns about any of the photos, please contact Kate. A password is required to access the parent-helper rota.

 

Finally, as many of you know, we have a cleaner who comes in just once a week. As there are many other users of the hall and the staff has only limited time to set up and clear away at the end of the session, we would like to request parent’s help in ensuring continued and improved standards in the toilet area. Therefore, from next term, the committee would like to ask all parent helpers to look over the toilets at the start of the day, and give them a quick clean if required. If anybody has any objections to this, please feel free to discuss them with Kate Lemon.
