BUILDING AND MAINTENANCE COMMITTEE (BAM)

The Building and Maintenance Committee was set up in May 1992 as a sub-committee of the School Board.  The establishment was with the specific mandate of developing a 5-10 year plan to provide for the ongoing maintenance of the school plant in its entirety. Membership consists of four parents, the Principal and Deputy Principal.  The Committee meets on a regular basis, approximately once a term and assists in the many and varied tasks related to ensuring school facilities are safe, upgraded and maintained.

Working Bees are co-ordinated by a member of the Committee and are held once a term.  Dates are listed on the Term Diary sent home at the commencement of each term and volunteer forms sent home closer to the date with the school newsletter.
