| Dear Parent
I write to give notice of the election of a parent member to the School Council of West Island School. (NB this is separate from the election to the ESF board)
Under the arrangements approved by the Board of ESF, our School Council will have 3 parent members. Currently we require one more council member due to a member stepping down from duty.
Parents who are employees of ESF may not stand for election as a parent member of the School Council.
The election arrangements require each candidate to have a proposer. I attach a Nomination Form to enable you to propose a candidate. The candidate must indicate in writing his/her willingness to stand and should be attach a brief Personal Statement setting out his/her relevant experience and stating what he/she would hope to contribute to the Council and the School. (see attached)
The last date for the receipt of nominations, which should be handed in or posted to the school office, is Monday 12th September at 3.30pm
Ballot papers will be issued on Friday 16th September. They should be returned, in an ESF envelope provided, and be placed directly in the Ballot Box in the school office or posted to the school to arrive no later than 12 noon on Monday 26th September. Ballot papers not in the correct envelope will not be counted.
Please note that ballot papers will need to be carried home by students on Friday, 16th September. It would be helpful if you could ask your son/daughter for the ballot papers to make sure they are not overlooked.
