It is made up of the spokespersons of the parents or guardians of the pupils in each of the grades offered by the school. Two spokespersons are elected for each grade, from Nursery to Eleventh Grade, who are elected by majority vote at the Parents’ Meeting for each grade during the first month of classes.

Other Non-Official School Government Groups

Parents' Parliament

This advisory and support group is made up of one parent volunteer elected from each level, chaired by the rector, with the support of the academic secretary. This group meets once a month and is focused on proposing solutions to general school problems and concerns in a structured and productive environment. Members of the parliament then work on project-based initiatives to address school concerns under the guidance of the principal’s office.

This group replaces Coffee Mornings and encourages parents to speak to the respective parent parliament member at their level if they wish to have them discuss any issues or concerns.

Alumni Association

It is a body representing the alumni within the educational community whose aim is to keep alive the links between them and their alma mater and to work for the good of the association and the institution.
We are currently consolidating our Alumni Association. If you are a graduate of the school and are interested in participating, please send us your details through the Alumni banner.
