PTFA AGM – Meeting Time and Agenda

The PTFA AGM is on 22 Sep 7:30 at The Falls cafe.

Will you join the PTFA committee to support all BAWB children this year?

The PTFA committee starts afresh each year and this year, we need at least one more person to join us as one of the ‘officers’. We cannot carry on without filling these roles so please take a moment to think about whether you could help.

The committee needs four ‘officers’ – these roles can be held as job shares:

A chairperson – to manage the meetings and liaise with school. Someone who is happy to talk! 

A vice chair – to act in the chair’s absence

A secretary – to sort out agendas, minutes and communications. Someone who is comfortable with admin and words.

A treasurer – to manage the accounts. Someone who is confident with money. 

And at least one other member – so in total a minimum of 5 people.

The PTFA meets once every half term (that’s six times a year). While we’re delighted that we have committee members who wish to stand again, we don’t currently have a chair person. The chair is well supported by the rest of the committee and isn’t responsible for decision making by themselves – it’s all done as a team. You need to be able to talk us through our agendas at meetings and be a contact point for both parents and school. 

If you’d like to join, but don’t see yourself as chair, there is scope to move the roles around to cover everything, so if you’re more of a secretary or treasurer than a chair, please come forward! 

All of our meetings are open to all so if you intend to come along regularly, why not get yourself on the committee? We use a WhatsApp group and only meet outside of the six meetings in an emergency. 

All committee members are trustees, named on the Charity Commission records. The committee will be elected at the AGM – on Thursday 22 September 2022, 7:30 at The Falls Coffee House – which we would love everyone to come along to! Please put it on your calendars now! If you would like to put your name forward, please let Beth Daley (as current secretary) know (message me or email bethdaleywriting@gmail.com or email school who can pass it on).
