Funding Request Process
Who decides what the funds are spent on?
There are two avenues for funding requests:
Kopane School Management (Principal)
Kopane School Governance (Board of Trustees).
Requests are tabled at Home & School meeting, or if urgent we may call a meeting. The request is discussed and decision is made.
Fundraising Idea Process
If you have an idea, we want to hear it.
Bring your idea to a meeting or email us details - the more information the better.
Home and School committee will meet regarding proposal - we may ask for more information.
Once Home and School have agreed that it is a viable fundraising opportunity advertising and information is given out to families as appropriate .
Any parent or caregiver is welcome to attend Home & School meetings and to be part of the group.
