GUHS Parent Council

The Parent Council at Glen Urquhart High School have been a great source of support to the school since its inception. The Parent Council is a group of parents which meet five times a year for around an hour each time to discuss how the Parents can support the school. At the meeting parents can find out how the school is developing and in a very informal setting parents discuss how they can support the school. Support can be in a number of ways from advice, fundraising, helping out at school events etc.
The Parent Council AGM is on Wednesday 14th September in the school at 7pm. Please come along if only to see if being a member of the Parent Council is something that may interest you.
