The new Board was elected during March 2018. We have taken over some key projects from the previous including the upgrade of the school hostel and improved security for the school. These are long term projects and are being phased in over the next couple of years. Construction has begun on the Astro Turf which will be opened early 2019 and is a culmination of much research and planning over the past 2 years.

Furthermore, we are revising and updating policies to enable efficient governance. We have initiated termly board-meet-parents meetings to ensure interaction between us and the parent body as well as a termly report to update everyone on our activities. The fund-raising committee has embarked on some ambitious and successful projects during this year aimed at generating additional revenue for the school, but also providing opportunity for parents to be more involved with the school. We hope to see even more parent involvement in 2019.

On behalf of each board member we are extremely proud to be associated with this school and consider it a privilege to be governing on behalf of the Parents of St Michael’s School. We celebrate the academic, sporting and cultural achievements and congratulate the educators on their hard work and perseverance.

Kind regards

Ruth Govender
