NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2025
The Rochedale State High School P&C Association's Annual General Meeting is scheduled for Tuesday 18 March 2025, commencing at 5:30pm. This year the AGM will be held in the Administration Building.
We encourage all parents to join our P&C – as they say, many hand make light work! Simply download the membership form, complete and return addressed to the P&C either to the school's office administration, or via email at pandc@rochedaleshs.eq.edu.au (both scanned versions and photos of the completed form will be accepted). Printed copies will also be available from the office administration for those who are unable to print the form at home.
At the AGM all Executive positions will be declared vacant, and nominations for the 2025 Executive Committee will be tabled for election. These positions are:
- President
- Vice President
- Treasurer
- Secretary
More details the role descriptions for these positions is in the NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2025 link.
All P&C Executives are responsible for any urgent decisions required outside of P&C meetings and are the official employers of all P&C staff. The P&C Executive Committee are also the Business Managers of the Tuckshop.
Key membership information:
- Being a P&C member does not mean that you must attend all meetings. We understand families have busy schedules and sometimes it is physically impossible to commit to attending. We just ask for you to volunteer when and where you can.
- You do not need to attend a meeting to become a member of the P&C. Simply complete the membership form and either return it to the office or email a copy to pandc@rochedaleshs.eq.edu.au.
- Parents are not required to hold a volunteer blue card in order to volunteer at their child's school. Any other family member that is not a parent is required to hold a volunteer blue card, in which the P&C are happy to assist with applications.
- All volunteers of the school (including P&C) are required to complete the mandatory volunteer induction training as per Department of Education requirements. This is to ensure that all volunteers are covered under the P&Cs Personal Accident Insurance Policy. This training is conducted at the start of the year by the school and is also available at school administration. This takes approximately 15 minutes to complete.
- Remember, the P&C is made up of parents.....just like you! The primary goal of the P&C is to enhance the educational opportunities for the students at our school. But along with that, it is also a great platform to –
- Build lifelong friendships with other like-minded parents.
- Enhance your skill set.
- Become more informed on important school matters and policies and provide parent input.
- Give back to our wonderful school community.
- And most importantly, have fun!
If there any questions regarding our upcoming AGM or how to become involved with our P&C, please don't hesitate to contact the P&C at pandc@rochedaleshs.eq.edu.au. We look forward to seeing you all at the AGM!
