Management Committee
Management Committee
RTEEC is a community based long day care centre. This means that our service is managed by a Management Committee made up of parents of Children that attend our centre and also other members of the community who may have an interest.
The role of the Management Committee is to oversee the general operation of this service. Some of the committee's responsibilities include operational funding and subsidies, formulating an monitoring budgets formulating policies, staffing, centre maintenance and over all centre Management.
As a parent you are encouraged to attend our monthly meetings this entitles you to vote and possibly to stand for election to be apart of the Management Committee.
The Committee is a crucial part of the centre's operation and is responsible for policy direction, for supervising financial management, for ensuring the legal requirements are met and for staff selection.
The Management Committee meets the second Monday of each month (unless advised of change) at the centre and parents are welcome to attend.
The meetings commence at 6.00pm and go for 1 hour.
Our Current Management Committee is made up of seven wonderful volunteers.
- PRESIDENT: Jessica Brine
- VICE PRESIDENT: Jordan Bousfield
- SECRETARY: Renae Heasman
- TREASURER: Casey Ryan
General Committee Members
If you are interested in having a say in what goes on in your child's centre then think about becoming a committee member. The centre can not operate with out a management committee.
Our Annual General Meeting is held every March. Further information is advised in February.
