Hello….I’m Sara Barbour, Chairperson of the Parent Council at CDHS. I’m delighted to be supported by Amy Graham our Vice-Chair, Graeme Dutton our Clerk and Eileen Hope our Treasurer, along with an enthusiastic committee.
I’ve two daughters in the school, Lucy in S2 and Annie in S1. My background is mainly in Sales & Marketing but I currently work at home in our farm office, near Crocketford, where we also live. I enjoy walking, cooking, oil painting and meeting friends.
I previously held the position of chairperson at Hardgate Primary school for three years and know only too well the importance of having a strong, active parent council within a school.
Our parent council meet 3 or 4 times per year – meetings last around an hour and a member of the school management team are represented at each meeting. It’s a fantastic way of learning more about what’s currently happening within the school and of future plans.
Meetings will be advertised through our FB page CD High school Parent Council – new committee members or any parent/carer would be warmly welcomed at our meetings.
