School Council

The Marlborough Primary School (MPS) council is composed of parent members, community memebers and staff representatives.

The council oversees several subcommittees, including Finance, Buildings and Grounds, Governance, and Publicity and Promotions, which report back to the council.

The Role of School Council

– Establish the overarching direction and vision for the school, including the school strategic plan.
– Formulate, review, and update school policies.
– Approve the annual budget and monitor expenditures.
– Foster effective communications to engage parents, the school community, and the broader community to generate interest, build partnerships, and enhance the school.

How can parents be involved?

Parents can nominate for school council at the start of each year. A notice is sent out to all families seeking nominations. Voting occurs at the council’s AGM in March. Members serve on the council for two years, with half the positions vacated each year. The principal nominates the staff representatives.

How can parents raise issues with the school council?

Parents can contact any school council member to raise issues or concerns. Typically these will relate to matters of school policy. Teaching or educational issues should be raised with the relevant teacher or principal in the first instance.

Can parents attend school council meetings?

In some cases, parents who have raised particular matters for council consideration may be asked to attend and present on the issue. If you would like to attend a meeting, please contact the Principal Tim Mulhall

MPS Parents and friends Association

Marlborough Primary School prides itself on its welcoming, caring and involved community. The Parents and Friends Association is an integral part of this community, providing opportunities for parents and caregivers to meet other families, and the chance to become involved in school life and the education of our children. The association organises social activities throughout the year for parents, families and students as well as fundraising activities to support our school.

The parents association meets every six to eight weeks and all parents and caregivers are welcome to attend and become involved. If you are able to help organise or donate items for any of these events, please speak to our office staff who can put you in contact with the right person.

In 2023, Our Parents’ and Friends’ Association raised enough funds to purchase an entire class worth of Chromebook computers – a huge achievement!
