We Need Your Help!
Our Parents Association (PA) currently has 3 Officer Roles. At our Annual General Meeting (AGM) each of these roles will be vacated and must be filled.
We have been discussing the overall organisation and structure of our current Parents Association. Outlined below is a diagram of how we might see it going forward. As the school has grown, so has the need for more members on the PA. The current officer roles still stand, but there are further roles suggested to ensure all the jobs and tasks are spread equally amongst members.
Being a member of the PA is an exciting part of your life as part of the St. Joseph’s Community. It is a great way to get to know other parents, and work closely with the school for lots of fun events. Some of the events we ran this year include: Christmas Fair & Raffle, Easter Egg Hunt, Pizza Day, Ice-Cream Van and our very popular Uniform Swaps. We cannot run these events without our dedicated PA members.
We hold a meeting once a month via Zoom, and everyone is expected to help out throughout the year at our different events (not all the events!). We are lucky enough to have a great support team of parent volunteers who are also to hand to help us if needs be.
New Officers and new committee members, means the PA is constantly evolving. We draw on the strengths and experience of all members in order to bring new and creative ideas and events to the pupils of St. Joseph’s. All fundraising goes towards enhancing our children’s time in the school. This year your money went towards the new All Weather Pitch.
If you feel you’d like to be part of the committee or to take on one of the above roles, please contact us via e-mail at stjosephspadunlaoghaire@gmail.com, or you can speak directly to any of the current PA members.
Caríosa Morrissey (Chairperson), Lisa Butler (Secretary), Julie Kuppens (Treasurer), Stijn Kuppens, Sarah Johnson, Ben Churchill, Elly Rochford, Ian Reilly, Maeve Corbett, Godelieve Elverding and Charlotte Cahill.
