Welcome back to the new school year

Volunteers play a vital role in the education of our students and once again, we are inviting our school community to express interest in a volunteer role.

In recent times we have expanded and diversified the roles of our volunteers so that we can maximise the skills and expertise of our wider school community.

Schools need to be a positive and nurturing environment, where both parents and teachers facilitate education in an encouraging, engaging and collaborative manner.

Parents can help in many ways. Not all parents will be able to help during the day, but all parents can contribute in some way. Follow your interests in choosing your involvement.

Take part in the school community by:

• Attending social functions

• Helping with fundraising activities

• Visiting displays and school performances within the school and local community

• Being involved with gardening in the school

• Joining School Council

• Assisting with the whole school reading program

Please complete the Volunteers Training Presentation then take the quiz at the end. The presentation will outline how the program works, expectations, O.H.& S, confidentiality and how to assist children in the classroom with their learning. 

All volunteers must be registered on SAMS 4 Schools, please see the office regarding registration. 

Volunteers must also have a current Working with Children Check and must have completed the Volunteers Training presentation and quiz.  You can apply for a Working With Children Check online.  This identification card must be visible and placed in a school lanyard when you are volunteering in the school.   Click here for further information.

Volunteers are also required to complete an in person induction yearly with our OHS Officer.

The offer of your precious time is greatly appreciated and we look forward to you being a part of our volunteer team this year.
