Parents and Teacher Association
Parents and Teachers Association (PTA)
Once a year at the Annual General Meeting, a new PTA committee is chosen. This meeting is very important to attend, as it informs parents of the happenings of the past year and the goals for the future. The main aim is for the parent body to work with the teachers to help raise funds and assist in the smooth running of the school. If you are interested in participating in the PTA, and are the parent of a pupil who is currently in our school, please notify the Headteacher or one of the current PTA members.
The PTA Levy is only P300 per annum. The Finance Department factors these into the school fee payments. These funds are then put into a special account administered by the PTA Executive, and are used for projects agreed upon by the Executive, in agreement with the parent body at large. An annual financial report is presented by the PTA Treasurer at the AGM.
Your child really appreciates your support and your efforts for the school. At Morula we would like to encourage an open communication system between parent, teacher and pupil. We look forward to seeing you time and again on the campus for whatever reason you choose – to get to know your child’s classteacher better, to coming to see your child when they are involved in co-curricular activities, and any other reason!
Parent-Teacher/s Interview / Open Evenings
During the first and second terms Parent-Evenings are held. This will give you the opportunity to meet with the teacher/s to discuss your child/ren’s progress and see their work. This is very important and all parents are urged to make use of these opportunities to get to know your children’s teacher/s better.
On return to school a doctor’s certificate or a letter from the parent would be appreciated for the child’s file. If a child had an infectious disease parents must provide the classteacher with a doctor’s letter before returning to school.
If the child is to be absent for reasons besides illness, the Headteacher is to be informed.
Food & Tuck Shop
Parents are to provide their child with a mid-morning snack and drink. We would prefer that the children have a nourishing snack and not just junk food. (We encourage less nutritious food on Friday’s only!)
No hard-boiled sweets are to be given to the pre-primary groups. Chewing gum is not permitted at anytime during school hours.
We have a tuckshop run by the PTA that sells pies every day of the week and a more varied selection of ‘fast’ foods on Friday breaktimes. This shop is open over lunchtime from Mondays to Thursdays to cater for students who stay on campus for afternoon lessons.
