Parents’ Association
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 contributed to:
- Encouragement of Traffic Safety in the school grounds
- The Loughside \ Woodlands \ Castleshanaghan 5k event
- The Book Rental Scheme
- First Communion, Confirmation celebrations, and new parents evening
- Regular school costs, for example, bus hire fees
- Social and educational classes: yoga; positive parenting; internet safety
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 Woodlands NS.
