Executive Committee

The Executive Committee (EC) of the PTA is made up of Parent Representatives (up to 12), Teacher Representatives (up to 3) and the School Principal.   Parent representatives are are elected each year during the Annual General Meeting. From the pool of Parent Representatives, the EC elects a Chairperson, Vice-Chairperson, Treasurer and a Secretary. The EC meets monthly, to decide on activities and to administer school events.

The Chairperson of the PTA, is also a member of the Committee of Parents(Compar), which comprises all ESF School PTA Chairpersons.  The Committee of Parents meets each term to give advice and comment on affairs of the ESF Foundation as a whole.

The PTA also nominates one parent representative to sit on the Peak School Council.  In recent years, the Chairperson of the PTA has been this representative.

Peak School parents now also elect one additional parent to be the second member of the School Council. This election is organised by School Council and not the PTA.
