Commissioner
Cleave Hay, our Commissioner, has replaced the Board of Trustees until we establish a new one.
Our FREC committee
The Fundraising and Events Committee (FREC) works very hard to organize everything from our family fun days through to our school fair. They are a fantastic committee who give the school the extra level of support for ensuring we have additional funding for our activities through to providing opportunities to be a community. Here is a picture of the fun family picnic they organized.
| What parents have to say about our school
Our family from the Netherlands: Rotary Park School has been more than a school with a view. It has been a school with a close community, dedicated teachers and principal and extremely friendly and fun children. We think you should all be really proud of this inclusive, warm and fun school. Casper goes home determined to go and play cricket in the Netherlands. A very little played sport in the Netherlands. Tessa goes home determined to learn street dancing, to be just as good as the girls in Room 4. And we go home determined to take with us not only our wonderful memories, but also an example of a better balanced life style. |
The parents are an integral part of the school. Supportive and caring parents and friends all help out to make the school a better place.
At Rotary park school the parents know the importance of showing leadership, respect and helping out by showing these qualities in their own actions. At school picnic days, school fairs and events all parents provide spectacular support, which we are all very proud of. We even have a little fun doing it!!
