On 27/10/2010 at 17:15 took to school the first meeting of the Parent Group this year.
numerous appearances, especially parents of first graders.
It begins with a brief presentation of the essence and functions of the Group by the Chairman Sara Speciani , which also illustrates in broad terms the current school situation as a result of cuts to education and, mainly, the differences (more accurately, the lack ) occurred this year compared the past seasons: just appoint, on everything, cutting hours and staff, the elimination of copresences of teachers (which marked the end of many important activities such as workshops " to open classes") lack of funds necessary to finance the most essential services ( cleaning, maintenance), and so on. again this year, is therefore of paramount importance, even to that of teachers, act and work to ensure that NO is made to feel our decision to further cuts in school next year that could lead to drastic changes such as the abolition of full time.
One way to make more effective the work of the Parents Group, also in this direction, leads us to the first item on the agenda: in collaboration with the District Council, in fact, we discuss the possibility of turning the Association 'all the schools in the plexus (Cassoni, S. Palmieri and James), so as to structure and facilitate various activities, but each of the three schools will have the autonomy and manage their liquidity independently.
In this regard, the Treasurer Beatrice Fioralisi communicates the availability of 4700 € in the booklet that came with the Group other than 300 in cash plus € 300/400 from the revenues of the photos and filming done at the end of last year.
It reiterates, especially newcomers to the attention of parents, that these money ALWAYS AND ONLY MADE AVAILABLE TO PROJECTS FOR SCHOOL : this year is expected to buy a PC for classes that request it (also because the effect of the cuts was to make difficult, due to the presence of only one teacher, the outputs in the computer lab) and to provide the school with a wi-fi network , especially in view of the research fourth and fifth children. Most parents said they agree to this type of investment, although in many claiming the importance of investing more cleaning in school premises, from bathrooms and gyms : Parents Association can help here, too, such as allocating a share of ATA staff that is devoted to the extra cleaning certain environments, and to this end, the teachers suggest that among parents of different floors and corridors will take stock of the needs would then turn to the leadership in a united and organized.
to form the Association takes a few steps, including the presence of three founding members, the presentation of a statute (rather than simply not being provided for the use of public funds), and the decision a fee (even a few euro).
Again: fishing revenue last year-end (619 €) was planned for the cause of the earthquake victims in Haiti , it will be decided as soon as possible through which charity can be delivered. It is recalled that the peaches in school are held for 7-10 days close to the Christmas and end of the school year, and are used toys and disused but in good condition that anyone can leave at any time, once in the chest to the right of school.
spoken at this point of the various events planned to be organized, the first of the Christmas Party , Which is thought to be fixed for the day December 18 (Saturday) . Teachers shall notify the parties of the committee head teacher has decided that there should be a core theme for this and all other events throughout the year starts from the president, welcomed a bit 'by all present, the idea of theme "The school despite cuts, or something that is in line with our protests peaceful and constructive for education, we think of a good title such as" Once upon a time ... the school would like to have. " Within the next few meetings, we can divide the tasks and organize activities that will be also held by the same parents as part of the festival, so it is no longer just "spectators" event, but actively take part. To ensure that the protest activities in general have resonance and leave outside our walls, you can call journalists and cameramen, as in the demonstrations last year, to record and return everything.
Obviously, ideas and criticisms are welcome to attach contacts below.
