Helping out at school is a great way to get involved in your child’s education as well as get to know the staff and other parents and carers.
The NSW Department of Education Working with Children policy and procedures are mandatory for all schools. It is now compulsory for all volunteers working in schools, whether it is in the classroom, canteen or at school events to complete a Digital WWCC Declaration for Volunteers and Non Child Related Contractors and show government issuded photo ID. Please complete the online process, QR code check in at the front office and show your photo ID at the front office for verification.
Research shows that children benefit when their parents or carers are actively involved in their education and school life.
You can help by:
- listening to children read in the classroom
- volunteering on sports days
- helping supervise excursions
- getting involved in fundraising activities
- joining school committees.
