The PTA is an excellent way to become a part of the VRS family.
VRS is a public school, governed by the South African Schools Act. Every aspect of the school is governed by this Act. The principal and School Governing Body (SGB) are responsible and held accountable for all school activities.
What is the PTA?
The PTA is a formal organisation of volunteers consisting of parents and teachers. It provides an opportunity for everyone to work together towards a common goal. All parents/guardians are automatically members of the school PTA. We encourage you to become involved.
MISSION, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The mission of the PTA is to ensure an optimal educational experience for all learners.
The aim of the PTA is to contribute to the development and improvement of all aspects of school life through the following objectives:
PTA meetings
The PTA committee meets twice during every school term to discuss general business aspects such as fundraising, parent involvement and support. Additional ad hoc meetings will be held as and when the need arises.
The PTA committee consists of:
– Two (2) grade representatives for each grade (1 – 7)
– An Administrator, if necessary
– A Chairperson elected from the grade representatives
– Four (4) educators or non-educators from the school
– A parent governing body member representing the governing body
– From the committee various sub-committees are formed, e.g. Fundraising Committee

What is a Grade Representative?
The grade representatives are a tool used by the PTA as well as the teachers to communicate with parents. They are selected at the beginning of the year and there are 2 grade representatives per grade, 1 English and 1 Afrikaans. A grade representative is in charge of creating a WhatsApp group, acting as the group administrator, and filtering information back and forth to the class representatives.
The WhatsApp group is one of the main communication tools used to support the PTA Committee in achieving its mission, aim and objectives. Refer to the WhatsApp Policy, please. You will also be required to attend PTA meetings.
What is a Class Representative?
The PTA has 2 class representatives for each class, nominated at the beginning of the year. Class representatives may arrange internally to rotate during the year, as long as there are 2 (two) class representatives per class at any given time during the year. If you would like to volunteer let the PTA know, please.
School Fundraising Projects
To be confirmed.
