The Board of Rowing Tasmania (RT) is establishing a Schools Commission (see Terms of Refererence*).

The Commission's responsibilities are to:

• Convey views and opinions from the schools rowing community,
• Advise the Board about the interests of school rowing,
• Consider questions and issues referred by the CEO or the Board; and,
• Make recommendations to the Board about the management and conduct of schools rowing.

As with other RT Commissions, the Schools Commission in not a decision-making body. However, inclusive, well-founded proposals that benefit the schools rowing community and rowing across Tasmania generally would be expected to be looked upon favourably.

The Board is seeking expressions of interest from individuals and clubs who support school rowing, together with traditional (SATIS) and non-traditional rowing schools. The Commission will be gender diverse and represent school rowers' interests across the State.

An online information session to explain the Terms of Reference and to answer any queries will be held via Teams on Tuesday, December 17, from 5.00-5.30pm. You can register for the briefing here.
