FISH HOEK PRE-PRIMARY NEWS FLASH-14 Feb 2014
Dear Moms and Dads
CLASS REP ROLE AT FISH HOEK PRE-PRIMARY       helping hands
 
We really do value the help and support throughout the year of class reps, but particularly before and during functions. We need class reps to play a role in fundraising as well as in heading small groups of moms to help in and around the school.
It is not for the class rep to do all the hard work, but to rather be a liaison between the parents in the reps class and the fundraising committee. To contact moms and dads and encourage them to support or help if needed.
 

- Chantal is the Fundraising Rep on the board of Governors, with Robynne as PRO and also involved in fundraising. Chantal will be liaising with newly appointed class reps when necessary. Chantal organizes a class rep meeting once a month, usually on a Wednesday at approximately 6pm before the Board of Governors Meeting. This date and time may change depending on the availability of the reps. We will need the commitment of the class reps to attend these meetings once a month so we can plan for the next upcoming fund raising event.
 
- Your main function as a class rep is to liaise with the parents in your class. I will give you a class list with emails and telephone numbers.
Class reps become involved in:
  • Their teacher and teacher assistant’s birthdays so that you can make this occasion special for them.
  • Phoning new parents to the school, to find out how they are doing. Any things that they do not understand etc.
  • Encourage parents to help around the school.
  • Functions. Here we generally need a lot of help on the day, as well as help beforehand organising prizes. Time sheets are organized by Chantal and you will simply need to send out an email or sms to ask the parents in the class to help on the day at a certain time slot.
  • Liaising with our class teacher about things that she needs help with.
 
Help needed at FHPPS
 
  1. Covering and repairing Library books
  2. Repairing games and puzzles
  3. Making and mending dress-up clothes for the house corner
  4. Dolls-house facelift.
  5. Weeding and organizing planting of trees, shrubs for our garden when necessary
  6. Helping to maintain the vegetable garden.
 
Groups of moms or individuals can meet as they feel it is necessary.
We have a regular place in the school where we as teachers put the books to be mended etc and the moms who are interested sign the books or games out, take them home with all plastic etc and fix them at home.
 
Please we need your support !

If you are interested in being a Class Rep for your child's class, please chat to your child's teacher. Class reps will be voted in at the Class Discussions on 19th Feb. We would like  at least 2 class reps per class. Please note that class reps will need to attend about 2-3 meetings a term, depending on the function for that term. Only one class rep from each class will need to attend the meeting! 
 
Kind Regards
