Helena College Council seeks new member

The role of the College Council is to provide overall governance of the school which includes setting the strategic direction, providing oversight of plans and budgets established by the school management, and monitoring the performance of the school against its Strategic Plan. 

It is the function of the Principal and Executive Team to manage the operational organisation of the school in accordance with the Strategic Plan and College policies. The College Council and Executive work in partnership to achieve the College’s shared purpose and vision.

Some things to consider:

• School Councils work best when people from a variety of different backgrounds, with a range of expertise, work together as a team.
• Members must have an understanding of the governance role of a Council and the importance of independence and confidentiality.
• Members are prepared to commit the time and effort needed to ensure the work of the Council is successful.

Why join the College Council?

Being on the College Council is a great way to get involved and have a voice in the strategic direction of the school. The work of the Council supports our present and future students and contributes to a strong and vibrant Helena College Community.

To support the work of the current Council, we are seeking an additional member, preferably with a background in one or more of the following areas:

• Current & Future Technology
• Education Leadership
• Business Management

If you are interested in playing a role on Council or would like to know more, we’d really like to hear from you. Please email council@helena.wa.edu.au for further information.
