Governing council

At Burton, parents play a key role in the way our school operates. Governing Council provides an opportunity for parents to have a voice in the decision-making process and ensures that the communities perspective is heard. We strongly encourage parents to be involved in the governing council.

Governing Council meet twice a Term and discuss school events, budgets, updates to policies and procedures and other items raised by the community.

If you would like to be involved, please contact the front office on 8280 6277 or email dl.1844.info@schools.sa.edu.au.
