As a community based service, the business of Berkeley Vale Community Preschool is managed by a volunteer Management Committee, made up of current and past families or interested community representatives who work in collaboration with the preschool Director.
The preschool is a legal entity constituted under the Associations Act as the Berkeley Vale Preschool Kindergarten Incorporated.
The preschool is governed by the Management Committee (Committee) in accordance with the Rules of Incorporation, which outlines the management requirements of the Association.
Committee Members are elected annually at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) each March. The way the positions are elected, is that families of our service enter into membership of the General Association upon enrolment. External community representatives that wish to become a member, may submit an expression of interest, directly with the Nominated Supervisor and pay a small membership fee of $3. They are then responsible to attend the AGM and vote upon each individual role. Once the committee has been elected, they are then responsible to the business of Berkeley Vale Community Preschool.
A full and active committee is vital in order to keep our preschool operational. This is the same arrangement that has been in place for the past 40 years!
We believe that when families are involved in decision making, it is more likely that the service will reflect the real needs of the families and the community.
