The Class Representative is the primary link between the APA Executive Team and the parent community of Allenby Public School. At the beginning of each school year, the APA solicits expressions of interest from Allenby parents and Class Representatives are usually assigned in mid-September.
The key responsibility of a Class Representative is to serve as a primary point of communication for parents through the distribution of relevant emails and coordination of school-wide gifts for staff and teachers. In some cases, teachers will call on the Class Representative to assist in the planning of classroom parties and events, as well as solicit volunteers for field trips and in-class activities where needed. Note that this will vary depending on the individual needs of the class and the teacher. The first point of contact for class reps is the Class Rep Coordinator. A complete description of the role is available here.
