Meet the Brambles Committee
Brambles Childcare is run by a voluntary Committee of parents and carers.
Being a member of the Committee is a worthwhile experience, giving you as parent/carer a greater involvement in the vitally important early stages of your child/children’s education. If you think you may like to join the Committee at any stage in the year, please contact a Committee member.
Our Annual General Meeting is held in the Autumn Term and this is when the Committee for the following year is selected. Parent/carers will be informed in good time when this is going to take place, so that they are able to attend.
The Committee is responsible for setting up the groups policies, managing and engaging staff, fundraising and organising social events. The Committee is not responsible for day – to – day operations. That responsibility lies with the Manager and the staff. The Committee try to meet once every month, in the evening, usually from 8pm onwards. The way that the Committee is run is governed by our Constitution.
The way we run the group is governed by our Policies and Procedures and Operational plan, which are reviewed annually with regard to Ofsted recommendations and with the help from the Pre-School Learning Alliance (PLA).
A list of current Committee members can be found below. Please feel free to contact any Committee member directly if you have any questions about the Playgroup.
