Dear Parents,

I would like to invite you to the PTA Annual General Meeting (AGM)  

We would like to give notice of the AGM of the Mayflower Association], to be held on Monday 3rd October. The meeting will start at 3:30pm with the PTA Annual General Meeting.

The PTA plays a vital part in the school community and all parents, as members of the PTA, are invited to support the AGM. This is your chance to hear and see how the funds you have helped to raise have been used for the benefit of the children/students at our school.

The AGM is also an opportunity for you to elect the PTA Committee, who represent the association throughout the forthcoming year. Nominations should be sent in advance of the AGM for anyone wishing to stand as an Officer or Ordinary Committee Member, for the first time. Existing committee members wishing to stand for re-election do not have to be nominated again but should inform the PTA of their intention to stay in their role.

If you would like any further information about being a Committee Member, please speak to Ms Walker. As our PTA is a registered charity, all committee members automatically become Trustees of the Charity. Before submitting your nomination form, please read the Charity Commission publication ‘The Essential Trustee – What you need to know (CC3)’. A copy of the booklet can be found on the Charity Commission website.

There are many different "jobs" to do when helping, from something small such as manning a stall at the fete, to a bigger organising job for the firework display! Any help is appreciated and welcomed.

We look forward to seeing you on 3rd October.

Kind Regards,
Ms Julie-Ann Walker Chair
