Parents may wish to support the school by volunteering their time and skills. This may include:
- helping with class programmes
- sports coaching
- fundraising
- school productions
- trips, and camps
- school policy reviews
- Board of trustees
- Parent group.
Parent involvement contributes to a strong school community and has benefits for everyone involved. If you have a particular skill you wish to offer, feel free to talk to Staff. Many events and initiatives would simply not take place without the involvement of parent volunteers.
Becoming a Volunteer:
- Parents are welcome to offer their time and assistance.
- Non-Teacher volunteers are to complete a Police Vetting Form.
- Parents are invited to help when the need exists. When there are more offers of help than required, the school declines some of these offers. The school reserves the right to decline offers of help at any time.
- Parents are considered for their suitability for the event or activity, and are asked to complete a volunteer agreement form. For Education Outside the Classroom (EOTC) events, suitability may include specific skill levels required for the event.
- Parents are informed of their obligations and role as helpers.
- Activities involving volunteers are monitored by staff.
- Note that it is not always appropriate for younger siblings to come along with the parent helper. Please discuss this before the event/activity.
