School Council Welcome
School Council Welcome
On behalf of the Matthew Flinders Girls’ Secondary College Council, may I warmly welcome you to the MFG community.
The College Council meets about eight times each year and it consists of members of the College executive, elected staff members, elected parents and (invited) community members. Our student leaders attend Council meeting also.
The Council assists in the efficient governance of the College by ensuring its decisions are in the best interests of our students, seeking to enhance the educational opportunities of our students and ensuring the Council complies with the requirements of the Education Act.
The Council:
- helps to establish the broad direction and vision of the College
- approves the annual budget and monitors expenditure
- develops and periodically reviews various school policies
- ensures the school’s grounds and facilities are properly maintained and
- informs itself of, and takes account of, the views of the community.
If you are interested in supporting our wonderful school by serving on the Council, please let our Principal Ms Michelle Crofts know. Please don’t be shy!
Peter Hughes
MFG School Council President 2017-8
