Friends of the Village (FOTV) abides by these four values, both operationally and aspirationally. They are the guiding principles for everything that we do as a P&C Association. It is the role of the FOTV Leadership Team to ensure that these values are evident in all FOTV activities and communications.
We will listen intentionally and work productively with every member of the FOTV community to ensure that all voices are heard and all opinions are considered.
We will foster and facilitate connection between parents & carers via multiple channels and events. We understand the significant value that parents & carers gain from being connected with each other.
As a parent & carer community, we will be enthusiastic in everything that we do. Positivity, vibrancy and energy will proliferate in our community, overcoming any obstacles that stand in our way.
Every person is welcome in our community. We value the important contribution that every single parent or carer can and will make. New members will be received warmly and encouraged to participate to the level that they desire.
The key aims of Friends of the Village are:
foster connection and facilitate communication in the parent & carer community
raise funds for use in school programs, facilities maintenance and teacher support
