BOARD OF TRUSTEES

A Board of Trustees made up of five members elected by parents, the principal and a staff trustee, governs Greytown School.  The Board of Trustees can co-opt four additional members, so that the board can, as far as is reasonably practicable, reflect the ethnic and socio-economic composition of the school’s student body and the country’s gender balance.

Trustees are elected every three years.

The role of the Board of Trustees is to govern the school.  Primarily it is to produce and to update the school charter in consultation with the staff and the community and thereafter to govern the school according to the charter and the policies that relate to the charter.

The Board of Trustees meets twice each term on the Monday of Week 4 and Week 9. Meetings are held at 5.30 p.m. in the meeting room.  Meetings of the Board of Trustees are open to the public.
