Parents’ Association

 

The Woodland NS Parents’ Association is made up of all parents and guardians at the school. The Parents’ Association Committee is formed each year from parent volunteers.

The Parents’ Association Committee works in collaboration with the school management to:

• Promote the interests of all the students
• Enhance the learning environment
• Raise funds for, and contribute to, school initiatives and activities
• Support community events involving the school and parents

Over the last year or so the Parents’ Committee has organized or assisted with a range of activities, including the following:

• Encouragement of Traffic Safety in the school grounds
• The Woodland NS 2k/5k event
• First Communion, Confirmation celebrations, New Parents evening, Grandparents Day and Junior Infant parents tea/coffee morning
• Regular school costs, for example, bus hire fees
• School initiative costs, for example, the outdoor learning and play spaces
• Sustainable clothing swap events for uniforms, Halloween costumes and Christmas jumpers
• World Mental Health Day events
• Book rental and school book organisation
• Scholastic Book Fairs

The Parents’ Committee is a voluntary body and relies upon the commitment of its members and the support of the wider parent body and school management to contribute to improving the educational experience of all children at Woodland NS.  Consequently, new members are welcomed at the AGM in the autumn term, to bring fresh energy and new ideas to the committee.
