Our November meeting focused on end of year issues. This included working with our tamariki to keep them on track as they begin to get tired towards the end of the year, and getting everything in place for the Year Six tamariki who are going to camp. We also discussed how the budget is tracking and our likely end of year result, and staffing resources for 2020.
Another issue we talked about was a request to house an emergency electricity generator as part of efforts to improve Stokes Valley’s civil defence preparedness. We have asked for more information to work out if this is something that will be safe and practical to have in specially built storage on the school grounds.
We also talked about IT issues. Board members have recently met with an expert in school IT programmes and planning. This highlighted the need to think about many different aspects. These include having clear ideas about what type of devices to have, having good network systems and storage at school, deciding what to hire and what to buy, and using available online training.
The final Board meeting for 2019 is being held on 11 December 2019.
