Parent Partnership

A Partnership With Parents

Brize Norton Village Preschool would not exist without the support of parents. As parents and carers you are your children’s primary educators so we encourage a close working relationship between staff / keyworkers and parents. Parent partnership enables us to offer better care for the children day to day, it also offers an opportunity for parents to give feedback on our setting.

On occasions we will ask for a number of helpers for some activities, visiting the allotment or play park, as we require a higher adult to child ratio outside the setting.

The Parents Committee

The Preschool is a charity and therefore has to be run by a committee and without these parents the Preschool could not be run. The committee are parents who volunteer to be elected to act as trustees for the Preschool. They stand for election at the Annual General.. The roles we have are Chairman, Treasurer and Secretary as well as general committee members. The committee meet  once a term to discuss all matters of policy, fundraising, and administration. The more parents who are willing to be actively involved the better it is for the Preschool.  It is your chance to directly shape, and contribute to your child’s education, so please get involved.  Please see a member of the Committee for details of our next meeting.

Maria Dix – Chair
Steph Williams – Secretary
Jennifer Marsh – Treasurer
Nina Truman -General committee member
Charlotte Day – General member
Joanne Walters – General Committee Member

We also have a number of parents who help us out with marketing and fundraising as and when they have the time.

Fundraising

As with any charitable organisation fund raising is essential, in order to function we need more money than we receive from the government each year.

We regularly hold fundraising events, parental support is most appreciated
