PTA AGM and new committee wanted
We would like to invite every parent and carer of the Vineyard to join us for the next AGM on the 27th September 2023 at 7pm, in the school’s big hall.
According to the Vineyard PTA’s constitution the existing committee has to resign, and the members (which is all of you, parents, carers and teachers) will need to elect a new committee. We will also be discussing the financials, fundraising and events for the past year and ideas for the upcoming year.
As a reminder, the PTA is a registered charity and cannot function if we don’t have a committee, which consists of at least 3 members in the below core roles:
CHAIR(S) - someone(s) to lead the committee and make strategic decisions
TREASURER(S) - someone(s) who has some financial/accounting sense and could be a strict gatekeeper of the money movements, also creating our annual report. This role requires very little day-to-day involvement.
SECRETARY - admin support to the committee, overseeing communication channels
Please consider nominating yourself for either of these roles and email us at pta@vineyardpta.org if you are happy to step up (or need help to decide). It can be as little or as much work as you can/want to put into. Cath and Zsofia are both stepping down this year due to other commitments and to give the opportunity to others to form the PTA, but will be supporting the new committee as much and as long as it is needed.
We will be seeking volunteer members in many different areas - if you have an hour a week or an hour a month to offer to us, and whether you have skills in putting up a shelf, do a bunting, create a partnership strategy or just pick up stuff for us now and then.
