Community Council Working Groups 2025
Volunteers Needed
If you are looking to get more involved in the school community and can spare any time to help prepare and serve food at our canteen, we would very much appreciate a hand. Our canteen can only run with the help of a network of volunteers from our school community working together.
It's easy and fun work with on-the-job training and you can dedicate as much or as little time as you like. We have two important shifts “The Power Hour” and “The Hot 30” but any time that you have we are happy to find you something to do.
Please have a look at the Signup Sheet link and see where you can help. All volunteers’ efforts are rewarded plenty of tea or coffee and lots of conversation.

You do need to have your WWVP card on you when you are at the school and please don't forget to pop into the office and sign-in on arrival.
If you have any queries, please feel free to contact the Canteen Manager, Felicity Mclachlan via the email below or pop into the Canteen for a chat!
