Committee call out for Reepham Nursery School

Could you be a committee member?
 
Reepham Nursery School is a charity which means it has to be run by a management committee. The committee is made up of a chairperson, secretary, treasurer and other members known as trustees. All of us are parents of past and present children at the nursery, just like yourselves.
 
It might seem quite daunting at first when joining the committee – after all we are technically the employers of the nursery staff. But we are supported in our roles by the staff themselves and the Early Years advisors who help us with all the technical and legal duties. 
 
There are good descriptions of committee officers and trustee roles at www.diycommittee.org
 
But most importantly- THE NURSERY CANNOT RUN WITHOUT A COMMITTEE; The law states that we have to have at least 5 committee members (incl. 3 officers) at every committee meeting. We only just have that at each meeting, and have had to cancel meetings in the past if not everyone can make it, so we desperately need more members.
 

  • You don’t have to be a parent, you could be a grandparent, carer or simply member of the community willing to lend a hand.
  • Are you retired but feel you would like to help out within the community?
  • Could you give up an evening roughly every 4-6 weeks for committee meetings or would you like to help with fundraising events?

 
We would love to hear from you if so, please get in touch:

Or have a chat to a member of staff who will take your details.
