Staff And Parents How: Beautification of the school! - parents are deeply interested in the surroundings in which their children have to work and learn. They help to mend toys, to rearrange furniture, to see that the playground is free from litter - but their piece de resistance is the splendid playground mural opened by the mayor of our borough. The idea was conceived by a small group in the PTFG who, after discussion with the staff and parents how and committee, set the ball rolling and enlisted the aid of folk and organizations in the community, together with our own children, parents and staff and parents how -and produced a new, colourful, bright environment for us where before everything was dull and grey.
Running the school lending library - three parents currently organize and look after this. They now have a 'budget' and, in consultation with children, parents and staff and parents how, order books to supplement and replace stock.
Mother-tongue work - the bilingual parents have organized themselves to come in to read, tell stories and talk to and listen to children who speak their language.
Our parents have organized a Parents, Teachers and Friends Group. They felt that, to be more effective, a formal group should exist, with a committee. Thus die PTFG was formed and is now fully active, involving itself with the running of the school, organizing meetings, creches, arranging fetes and other fund-raising events. Even as individuals, parents have now learnt that they can make suggestions or question any practice or decision made by the staff and parents how They are actively encouraged to do this, and are sure of a chance for discussion or a listening ear. |
